Hegde PV, Morse BL. Mechanistic Account of Distinct Change in Organic Anion Transporting Polypeptide 1B (OATP1B) Substrate Pharmacokinetics during OATP1B-Mediated Drug-Drug Interactions Using Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling. Drug Metab Dispos 2024; 52:886-898. [PMID: 38740464 DOI: 10.1124/dmd.124.001708] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2024] [Revised: 04/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024] Open
Abstract
The role of transporters in drug clearance is widely acknowledged, directly and indirectly by facilitating tissue/enzyme exposure. Through the latter, transporters also affect volume of distribution. Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) involving organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) 1B1/1B3 and SLCO1B1 pharmacogenetics lead to altered pharmacokinetics of OATP1B substrates; however, several factors may confound direct interpretation of pharmacokinetic parameters from these clinical studies using noncompartmental analysis (NCA). A review of clinical data herein indicates a single dose of OATP1B inhibitor rifampin almost never leads to increased substrate half-life but often a decrease and that most clinical OATP1B substrates are CYP3A4 substrates and/or undergo enterohepatic cycling (EHC). Using hypothetically simple OATP1B substrate physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models, simulated effect of rifampin differed from specific OATP1B inhibition due to short rifampin half-life causing dissipation of OATP1B inhibition over time combined with CYP3A4 induction. Calculated using simulated tissue data, volume of distribution indeed decreased with OATP1B inhibition and was expectedly limited to the contribution of liver volume. However, an apparent and counterintuitive effect of rifampin on volume greater than that on clearance resulted for CYP3A4 substrates using NCA. The effect of OATP1B inhibition and rifampin on OATP1B substrate models incorporating EHC plus or minus renal clearance was distinct compared with simpler models. Using PBPK models incorporating reversible lactone metabolism for clinical OATP1B substrates atorvastatin and pitavastatin, DDIs reporting decreased half-life with rifampin were reproduced. These simulations provide an explanation for the distinct change in OATP1B substrate pharmacokinetics observed in clinical studies, including changes in volume of distribution and additional mechanisms. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Transporters are involved in drug clearance and volume of distribution, and distinct changes in OATP1B substrate pharmacokinetics are observed with OATP1B inhibitor rifampin. Using hypothetical and validated PBPK models and simulations, this study addresses the limitations of single-dose rifampin and complicated clinical OATP1B substrate disposition in evaluating the pharmacokinetic parameters of OATP1B substrates during rifampin drug-drug interactions (DDIs). These models account for change in volume of distribution and identify additional mechanisms underlying apparent pharmacokinetic changes in OATP1B DDIs.

Utility of Coproporphyrin-I Determination in First-in-Human Study for Early Evaluation of OATP1B Inhibitory Potential Based on Investigation of Ensitrelvir, an Oral SARS-CoV-2 3C-Like Protease Inhibitor. J Pharm Sci 2024; 113:798-805. [PMID: 37742997 DOI: 10.1016/j.xphs.2023.09.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2023] [Revised: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 09/17/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023]
Abstract
Coproporphyrin-I (CP-I) has been investigated as an endogenous biomarker of organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B. Here, we determined the CP-I concentrations in a cocktail drug-drug interaction (DDI) study of ensitrelvir to evaluate the OATP1B inhibitory potential because ensitrelvir had increased plasma concentrations of rosuvastatin in this study, raising concerns about breast cancer resistance protein and OATP1B inhibition. Furthermore, CP-I concentrations were compared between active and placebo groups in a first-in-human (FIH) study of ensitrelvir to verify whether the OATP1B inhibitory potential could be estimated at an early drug development stage. In the cocktail DDI study, CP-I did not differ between with/without administration of ensitrelvir, indicating that ensitrelvir has no OATP1B inhibitory effect. Although there were some individual variabilities in CP-I concentrations among the treatment groups in the FIH study, the normalization of CP-I concentrations with pre-dose values minimized these variabilities, suggesting that this normalized method would be helpful for comparing the CP-I from different participants. Finally, we concluded that CP-I concentrations were not affected by ensitrelvir in the FIH study. These results suggested that the CP-I determination in an FIH study and its normalized method can be useful for an early evaluation of the OATP1B-mediated DDI potential in humans.

Relationship of plasma 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid concentration with OATP1B activity in patients with chronic kidney disease. Clin Transl Sci 2024; 17:e13731. [PMID: 38564661 PMCID: PMC10844757 DOI: 10.1111/cts.13731] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 01/18/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Organic anion-transporting polypeptides (OATP)1B are drug transporters mainly expressed in the sinusoidal membrane. Many studies have suggested that OATP1B activity is affected by genetic factor, the uremic toxin 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid (CMPF), and inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Coproporphyrin-I (CP-I) is spotlighted as a highly accurate endogenous substrate of OATP1B. We previously reported a positive correlation between plasma CMPF and CP-I concentrations in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The present study evaluated the impact of genetic polymorphisms, CMPF, IL-6, TNF-α, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) on individual differences in OATP1B activity in patients with CKD. Seventy-three patients with CKD who received kidney transplant at least 3 months earlier were analyzed. Plasma CP-I concentration was higher in OATP1B1*15 carriers than in non-carriers. In all patients, CP-I did not correlate significantly with CMPF, IL-6, TNF-α, or eGFR. However, when the dataset was cut off at CMPF concentration of 8 and 7 μg/mL, 4 μg/mL, 3 μg/mL or 2 μg/mL, CMPF correlated positively with CP-I, and correlation coefficient tended to be higher as plasma CMPF concentration was lower. In conclusion, OATP1B1*15 impacted OATP1B activity in patients with CKD, but IL-6 and TNF-α did not. However, the impact of CMPF on OATP1B activity was limited to low CMPF concentrations, and the effect could be saturated at high concentrations. When prescribing an OATP1B substrate drug for patients with CKD, the OATP1B1*15 carrier status and plasma CMPF concentration may need to be considered to decide the dose regimen.

Abstract
Pitavastatin, a potent 3-hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitor, is indicated for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia. Hepatic uptake of pitavastatin is predominantly occupied by the organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1) and solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 1B1 (SLCO1B1) gene, which is a polymorphic gene that encodes OATP1B1. SLCO1B1 genetic polymorphism significantly alters the pharmacokinetics of pitavastatin. This study aimed to establish the physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to predict pitavastatin pharmacokinetics according to SLCO1B1 genetic polymorphism. PK-Sim® version 10.0 was used to establish the whole-body PBPK model of pitavastatin. Our pharmacogenomic data and a total of 27 clinical pharmacokinetic data with different dose administration and demographic properties were used to develop and validate the model, respectively. Physicochemical properties and disposition characteristics of pitavastatin were acquired from previously reported data or optimized to capture the plasma concentration-time profiles in different SLCO1B1 diplotypes. Model evaluation was performed by comparing the predicted pharmacokinetic parameters and profiles to the observed data. Predicted plasma concentration-time profiles were visually similar to the observed profiles in the non-genotyped populations and different SLCO1B1 diplotypes. All fold error values for AUC and Cmax were included in the two fold range of observed values. Thus, the PBPK model of pitavastatin in different SLCO1B1 diplotypes was properly established. The present study can be useful to individualize the dose administration strategy of pitavastatin in individuals with various ages, races, and SLCO1B1 diplotypes.

Abstract
Gender is an important risk factor for adverse drug reactions. Women report significantly more adverse drug reactions than men. There is a growing consensus that gender differences in drug PK is a main contributor to higher drug toxicity in women. These differences stem from physiological differences (body composition, plasma protein concentrations, and liver and kidney function), drug interactions, and comorbidities. Contrast agents are widely used to enhance diagnostic performance in computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Despite their broad use, these contrast agents can lead to important adverse reactions including hypersensitivity reactions, nephropathy, and hyperthyroidism. Importantly, female gender is one of the main risk factors for contrast agent toxicity. As these adverse reactions may be related to gender differences in PK, this perspective aims to describe distribution and elimination pathways of commonly used contrast agents and to critically discuss gender differences in these processes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Coproporphyrin (CP) I and III are byproducts of haem synthesis currently investigated as biomarkers for drug-drug interactions involving hepatic organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B transporters. Another hepatically expressed OATP-member is OATP2B1. The aim of this study was to test the impact of OATP2B1, which specifically transports CPIII, on CP serum levels, applying novel rat models. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH CPIII transport kinetics and the interplay between OATP2B1 and multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) were determined in vitro using the vTF7 expression system. Novel rSlco2b1-/- and SLCO2B1+/+ rat models were characterized for physiological parameters and for CP serum levels. Hepatic and renal expression of transporters involved in CP disposition were determined by real-time qPCR, Western blot analysis, and immunohistochemistry. KEY RESULTS In vitro experiments revealed differences in transport kinetics comparing human and rat OATP2B1 and showed a consistent, species-specific interplay with hMRP3/rMRP3. Deletion of rOATP2B1 was associated with a trend towards lower CPI serum levels compared with wildtype rats, while CPIII remained unchanged. Comparing SLCO2B1+/+ with knockout rats revealed an effect of sex: only in females the genetic modification influenced CP serum levels. Analysis of hepatic and renal transporters revealed marginal, but in part, statistically significant differences in rMRP2 abundance, which may contribute to the observed changes in CP serum levels. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS Our findings support that factors other than OATP1B transporters are of relevance for basal CP levels. Only in female rats, humanization of SLCO2B1 affects basal CPI and CPIII serum levels, despite isomer selectivity of OATP2B1.

Abstract
Variations in drug transporter activities, caused by genetic polymorphism and drug-drug interactions (DDIs), alter the systemic exposure of substrate drugs, leading to differences in drug responses. Recently, some endogenous substrates of drug transporters, particularly the solute carrier family transporters such as OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OAT1, OAT3, OCT1, OCT2, MATE1, and MATE2-K, have been identified to investigate variations in drug transporters in humans. Clinical data obtained support their performance as surrogate probes in terms of specificity and reproducibility. Pharmacokinetic parameters of the endogenous biomarkers depend on the genotypes of drug transporters and the systemic exposure to perpetrator drugs. Furthermore, the development of physiologically based pharmacokinetic models for the endogenous biomarkers has enabled a top-down approach to obtain insights into the effect of perpetrators on drug transporters and to more precisely simulate the DDI with victim drugs, including probe drugs. The endogenous biomarkers can address the uncertainty in the DDI prediction in the preclinical and early phases of clinical development and have the potential to fulfill regulatory requirements. Therefore, the endogenous biomarkers should be able to predict disease effects on the variations in drug transporter activities observed in patients. This mini-review focuses on recent progress in the identification and use of the endogenous drug transporter substrate biomarkers and their application in drug development. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Advances in analytical methods have enabled the identification of endogenous substrates of drug transporters. Changes in the pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, AUC, or CLR) of these endogenous biomarkers relative to baseline values can serve as a quantitative index to assess variations in drug transporter activities during clinical studies and thereby provide more precise DDI predictions.

Abstract
In recent years, some endogenous substrates of organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B (OATP1B) have been identified and characterized as potential biomarkers to assess OATP1B-mediated clinical drug-drug interactions (DDIs). However, quantitative determination of their selectivity to OATP1B is still limited. In this study, we developed a relative activity factor (RAF) method to determine the relative contribution of hepatic uptake transporters OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OATP2B1, and sodium-taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) on hepatic uptake of several OATP1B biomarkers, including coproporphyrin I (CPI), coproporphyrin I CPIII, and sulfate conjugates of bile acids: glycochenodeoxycholic acid sulfate (GCDCA-S), glycodeoxycholic acid sulfate (GDCA-S), and taurochenodeoxycholic acid sulfate (TCDCA-S). RAF values for OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OATP2B1, and NTCP were determined in cryopreserved human hepatocytes and transporter transfected cells using pitavastatin, cholecystokinin, resveratrol-3-O-β-D-glucuronide, and taurocholic acid (TCA) as reference compounds, respectively. OATP1B1-specific pitavastatin uptake in hepatocytes was measured in the absence and presence of 1 µM estropipate, whereas NTCP-specific TCA uptake was measured in the presence of 10 µM rifampin. Our studies suggested that CPI was a more selective biomarker for OATP1B1 than CPIII, whereas GCDCA-S and TCDCA-S were more selective to OATP1B3. OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 equally contributed to hepatic uptake of GDCA-S. The mechanistic static model, incorporating the fraction transported of CPI/III estimated by RAF and in vivo elimination data, predicted several perpetrator interactions with CPI/III. Overall, RAF method combined with pharmacogenomic and DDI studies is a useful tool to determine the selectivity of transporter biomarkers and facilitate the selection of appropriate biomarkers for DDI evaluation. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: The authors developed a new relative activity factor (RAF) method to quantify the contribution of hepatic uptake transporters organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1, OATP1B3, OATP2B1, and sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) on several OATP1B biomarkers and evaluated their predictive value on drug-drug interactions (DDI). These studies suggest that the RAF method is a useful tool to determine the selectivity of transporter biomarkers. This method combined with pharmacogenomic and DDI studies will mechanistically facilitate the selection of appropriate biomarkers for DDI prediction.

Abstract
Endogenous biomarkers of drug transporters are promising tools to evaluate in vivo transporter function and potential alterations in the pharmacokinetics of their substrates. We have previously reported that coproporphyrin I/III captured the weak inhibition of OATP1B transporters by GDC-0810. In this study, we measured plasma concentrations of additional biomarkers, namely fatty acids, bile acids and their sulphate or glucuronide conjugates in the presence and absence of GDC-0810. Concentrations of hexadecanedioate and tetradecanedioate did not increase in the presence of GDC-0810. Among bile acids and their conjugates, glycochenodeoxycholate and glycodeoxycholate 3-O-glucuronides (GCDCA-3G and GDCA-3G) showed Cmax increases with geometric mean ratio (95% confidence interval) of 1.58 (1.13-2.22) and 1.49 (1.21-1.83), consistent with previous reports from low-dose rifampin co-administration and pharmacogenetic studies. These results suggest that GCDCA-3G and GDCA-3G are two more promising biomarkers that may capture weak OATP1B inhibition in addition to coproporphyrin I/III.

Abstract
Hyperlipidemia is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease morbidity and mortality. The lipid-lowering drugs are considered the cornerstone of primary and secondary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Unfortunately, the lack of efficacy and associated adverse effects, ranging from mild-to-moderate to potentially life-threatening, lead to therapy discontinuation. Numerous reports support the role of gene polymorphisms in drugs' pharmacokinetic parameters and their associated adverse reactions. Therefore, this study aims to understand the pharmacogenomics of lipid-lowering drugs and the impact of genetic variants of key genes on the drugs' efficacy and toxicity. Indeed, genetically guided lipid-lowering therapy enhances overall safety, improves drug adherence and achieves long-term therapy.

Abstract
Solute carrier (SLC) transporters present as the loci of important drug-drug interactions (DDIs). Therefore, sponsors generate in vitro half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50 ) data and apply regulatory agency-guided "static" methods to assess DDI risk and the need for a formal clinical DDI study. Because such methods are conservative and high false-positive rates are likely (e.g., DDI study triggered when liver SLC R value ≥ 1.04 and renal SLC maximal unbound plasma (Cmax,u )/IC50 ratio ≥ 0.02), investigators have attempted to deploy plasma- and urine-based SLC biomarkers in phase I studies to de-risk DDI and obviate the need for drug probe-based studies. In this regard, it was possible to generate in-house in vitro SLC IC50 data for various clinically (biomarker)-qualified perpetrator drugs, under standard assay conditions, and then estimate "% inhibition" for each SLC and relate it empirically to published clinical biomarker data (area under the plasma concentration vs. time curve (AUC) ratio (AUCR, AUCinhibitor /AUCreference ) and % decrease in renal clearance (ΔCLrenal )). After such a "calibration" exercise, it was determined that only compounds with high R values (> 1.5) and Cmax,u /IC50 ratios (> 0.5) are likely to significantly modulate liver (AUCR > 1.25) and renal (ΔCLrenal > 25%) biomarkers and evoke DDI risk. The % inhibition approach supports integration of liver and renal SLC data and allows one to generate pan-SLC inhibition signatures for different test perpetrators (e.g., SLC % inhibition ranking). In turn, such signatures can guide the selection of the most appropriate individual (or combinations of) biomarkers for testing in phase I studies.

Abstract
Comprehensive characterization of transporter mediated drug-drug interactions (DDIs) is important to formulate clinical management strategies and ensure the safe and effective use of concomitantly administered drugs. The potential of a drug to inhibit transporters is predicted by comparing the ratio of the relevant concentration (depending on the transporter) and the half maximum inhibitory concentration (IC50 ) to a pre-defined "cut off" value. If the ratio is greater than the cut off value, modeling approaches such as Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) Modeling or a clinical DDI trial may be recommended. Because false positive (in vitro data suggests the potential for a DDI, whereas no significant DDI is observed in vivo) and false negative (in vitro data does not suggest the potential for a DDI, whereas significant DDI is observed in vivo) outcomes have been observed, there is interest in exploring additional approaches to facilitate prediction of transporter mediated DDIs. The idea of assessing changes in the concentration of endogenous biomarkers (which are substrates of clinically relevant transporters) to gain insight on the potential for a drug to inhibit transporter activity has received widespread attention. This brief report describes how endogenous biomarkers may help to expand the DDI assessment toolkit, highlights some current knowledge gaps, and outlines a conceptual framework that may complement the current paradigm of predicting the potential for transporter mediated DDIs.

Abstract
A reliable translation of in vitro and preclinical data on drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) to humans is important for safe and effective drug development. Precision medicine that is expected to provide the right clinical dose for the right patient at the right time requires a comprehensive understanding of population factors affecting drug disposition and response. Characterization of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters for the protein abundance and their interindividual as well as differential tissue and cross-species variabilities is important for translational ADME and precision medicine. This review first provides a brief overview of quantitative proteomics principles including liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry tools, data acquisition approaches, proteomics sample preparation techniques, and quality controls for ensuring rigor and reproducibility in protein quantification data. Then, potential applications of quantitative proteomics in the translation of in vitro and preclinical data as well as prediction of interindividual variability are discussed in detail with tabulated examples. The applications of quantitative proteomics data in physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling for ADME prediction are discussed with representative case examples. Finally, various considerations for reliable quantitative proteomics analysis for translational ADME and precision medicine and the future directions are discussed. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Quantitative proteomics analysis of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters in humans and preclinical species provides key physiological information that assists in the translation of in vitro and preclinical data to humans. This review provides the principles and applications of quantitative proteomics in characterizing in vitro, ex vivo, and preclinical models for translational research and interindividual variability prediction. Integration of these data into physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling is proving to be critical for safe, effective, timely, and cost-effective drug development.

Abstract
Coproporphyrin I (CPI) is an endogenous biomarker of organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B transporter (OATP1B). CPI plasma baseline was reported to increase with severity of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Further, ratio of CPI area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUCR) in the presence/absence of OATP1B inhibitor rifampin was higher in patients with CKD compared with healthy participants, in contrast to pitavastatin (a clinical OATP1B probe). This study investigated mechanism(s) contributing to altered CPI baseline in patients with CKD by extending a previously developed physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to this patient population. CKD-related covariates were evaluated in a stepwise manner on CPI fraction unbound in plasma (fu,p ), OATP1B-mediated hepatic uptake clearance (CLactive ), renal clearance (CLR ), and endogenous synthesis (ksyn ). The CPI model successfully recovered increased baseline and rifampin-mediated AUCR in patients with CKD by accounting for the following disease-related changes: 13% increase in fu,p , 29% and 39% decrease in CLactive in mild and moderate to severe CKD, respectively, decrease in CLR proportional to decline in glomerular filtration rate, and 27% decrease in ksyn in severe CKD. Almost complete decline in CPI renal elimination in severe CKD increased its fraction transported by OATP1B, rationalizing differences in the CPI-rifampin interaction observed between healthy participants and patients with CKD. In conclusion, mechanistic modeling performed here supports CKD-related decrease in OATP1B function to inform prospective PBPK modeling of OATP1B-mediated drug-drug interaction in these patients. Monitoring of CPI allows detection of CKD-drug interaction risk for OATP1B drugs with combined hepatic and renal elimination which may be underestimated by extrapolating the interaction risk based on pitavastatin data in healthy participants.

Abstract
Drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics (DMPK) is an important branch of pharmaceutical sciences. The nature of ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion) and PK (pharmacokinetics) inquiries during drug discovery and development has evolved in recent years from being largely descriptive to seeking a more quantitative and mechanistic understanding of the fate of drug candidates in biological systems. Tremendous progress has been made in the past decade, not only in the characterization of physiochemical properties of drugs that influence their ADME, target organ exposure, and toxicity, but also in the identification of design principles that can minimize drug-drug interaction (DDI) potentials and reduce the attritions. The importance of membrane transporters in drug disposition, efficacy, and safety, as well as the interplay with metabolic processes, has been increasingly recognized. Dramatic increases in investments on new modalities beyond traditional small and large molecule drugs, such as peptides, oligonucleotides, and antibody-drug conjugates, necessitated further innovations in bioanalytical and experimental tools for the characterization of their ADME properties. In this review, we highlight some of the most notable advances in the last decade, and provide future perspectives on potential major breakthroughs and innovations in the translation of DMPK science in various stages of drug discovery and development.

Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model-based translation of OATP1B-mediated drug-drug interactions from coproporphyrin I to probe drugs. Clin Transl Sci 2022; 15:1519-1531.

Abstract
The accurate prediction of OATP1B-mediated drug-drug interactions (DDIs) is challenging for drug development. Here, we report physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model analysis for clinical DDI data generated in heathy subjects who received oral doses of cyclosporin A (CysA; 20 and 75 mg) as an OATP1B inhibitor, and the probe drugs (pitavastatin, rosuvastatin and valsartan). PBPK models of CysA and probe compounds were combined assuming inhibition of hepatic uptake of endogenous coproporphyrin I (CP-I) by CysA. In vivo Ki of unbound CysA for OATP1B (Ki,OATP1B ), and the overall intrinsic hepatic clearance per body weight of CP-I (CLint,all,unit ) were optimized to account for the CP-I data (Ki,OATP1B , 0.657 ± 0.048 nM; CLint,all,unit , 57.0 ± 6.3 L/h/kg). DDI simulation using Ki,OATP1B reproduced the dose-dependent effect of CysA (20 and 75 mg) and the dosing interval (1 h and 3 h) on the time profiles of blood concentrations of pitavastatin and rosuvastatin, but DDI simulation using in vitro Ki,OATP1B failed. The Cluster Gauss-Newton method was used to conduct parameter optimization using 1,000 initial parameter sets for the seven pharmacokinetic parameters of CP-I (β, CLint,all , Fa Fg , Rdif , fbile , fsyn , and vsyn ), and Ki,OATP1B , and Ki,MRP2 of CysA. Based on the accepted 498 parameter sets, the range of CLint,all and Ki,OATP1B was narrowed, with coefficients of variation (CVs) of 9.3% and 11.1%, respectively, indicating that these parameters were practically identifiable. These results suggest that PBPK model analysis of CP-I is a promising translational approach to predict OATP1B-mediated DDIs in drug development.

Abstract
Glucuronidation and sulfation are the most typical phase II metabolic reactions of drugs. The resulting glucuronide and sulfate conjugates are generally considered inactive and safe. They may, however, be the most prominent drug-related material in the circulation and excreta of humans. The glucuronide and sulfate metabolites of drugs typically have limited cell membrane permeability and subsequently, their distribution and excretion from the human body requires transport proteins. Uptake transporters, such as organic anion transporters (OATs and OATPs), mediate the uptake of conjugates into the liver and kidney, while efflux transporters, such as multidrug resistance proteins (MRPs) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), mediate expulsion of conjugates into bile, urine and the intestinal lumen. Understanding the active transport of conjugated drug metabolites is important for predicting the fate of a drug in the body and its safety and efficacy. The aim of this review is to compile the understanding of transporter-mediated disposition of phase II conjugates. We review the literature on hepatic, intestinal and renal uptake transporters participating in the transport of glucuronide and sulfate metabolites of drugs, other xenobiotics and endobiotics. In addition, we provide an update on the involvement of efflux transporters in the disposition of glucuronide and sulfate metabolites. Finally, we discuss the interplay between uptake and efflux transport in the intestine, liver and kidneys as well as the role of transporters in glucuronide and sulfate conjugate toxicity, drug interactions, pharmacogenetics and species differences.

Abstract
Efflux transport systems are essential to suppress the absorption of xenobiotics from the intestinal lumen and protect the critical tissues at the blood-tissue barriers, such as the blood-brain barrier. The function of drug efflux transport is dominated by various transporters. Accumulated clinical evidences have revealed that genetic variations of the transporters, together with coadministered drugs, affect the expression and/or function of transporters and subsequently the pharmacokinetics of substrate drugs. Thus, in the preclinical stage of drug development, quantitative prediction of the impact of efflux transporters as well as that of uptake transporters and metabolic enzymes on the pharmacokinetics of drugs in humans has been performed using various in vitro experimental tools. Various kinds of human-derived cell systems can be applied to the precise prediction of drug transport in humans. Mathematical modeling consisting of each intrinsic metabolic or transport process enables us to understand the disposition of drugs both at the organ level and at the level of the whole body by integrating a variety of experimental results into model parameters. This review focuses on the role of efflux transporters in the intestinal absorption and brain distribution of drugs, in addition to recent advances in predictive tools and methodologies.

Abstract
Organic anion transporting polypeptide 2B1 (OATP2B1, gene SLCO2B1) is an uptake transporter that is thought to determine drug disposition and in particular, the oral absorption of medications. At present, the clinical relevance of SLCO2B1 genetic variation on pharmacokinetics is poorly understood. We sought to determine the functional activity of 5 of the most common missense OATP2B1 variants (c.76_84del, c.601G>A, c.917G>A, c.935G>A, and c.1457C>T) and a predicted dysfunctional variant (c.332G>A) in vitro. Furthermore, we measured the basal plasma concentrations of endogenous OATP2B1 substrates, namely estrone sulfate, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), pregnenolone sulfate, coproporphyrin I (CPI), and CPIII, and assessed their relationships with SLCO2B1 genotypes in 93 healthy participants. Compared to reference OATP2B1, the transport activities of the c.332G>A, c.601G>A and c.1457C>T variants were reduced among the substrates examined (estrone sulfate, DHEAS, CPI, CPIII and rosuvastatin), although there were substrate-dependent effects. Lower transport function of OATP2B1 variants could be explained by diminished cell surface expression. Other OATP2B1 variants (c.76-84del, c.917G>A and c.935G>A) had similar activity to the reference transporter. In the clinical cohort, the SLCO2B1 c.935G>A allele was associated with both higher plasma CPI (42%) and CPIII (31%) concentrations, while SLCO2B1 c.917G>A was linked to lower plasma CPIII by 28% after accounting for the effects of age, sex, and SLCO1B1 genotypes. No association was observed between SLCO2B1 variant alleles and estrone sulfate or DHEAS plasma concentrations, however 45% higher plasma pregnenolone sulfate level was associated with SLCO2B1 c.1457C>T. Taken together, we found that the impacts of OATP2B1 variants on transport activities in vitro were not fully aligned with their associations to plasma concentrations of endogenous substrates in vivo. Additional studies are required to determine whether circulating endogenous substrates reflect OATP2B1 activity.

Abstract
A previous study in 356 healthy Finnish volunteers showed that glycochenodeoxycholate 3‐O‐glucuronide (GCDCA‐3G) and glycodeoxycholate 3‐O‐glucuronide (GDCA‐3G) are promising biomarkers of organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1). In the same cohort, we now evaluated the performances of two other OATP1B1 biomarkers, coproporphyrin I (CPI) and III (CPIII), and compared them with GCDCA‐3G and GDCA‐3G. Based on decreased (*5 and *15) and increased (*14 and *20) function SLCO1B1 haplotypes, we stratified the participants to poor, decreased, normal, increased, and highly increased OATP1B1 function groups. Fasting plasma CPI concentration was 68% higher in the poor (95% confidence interval, 44%, 97%; P = 1.74 × 10−10), 7% higher in the decreased (0%, 15%; P = 0.0385), 10% lower in the increased (3%, 18%; P = 0.0087), and 23% lower in the highly increased (1%, 40%; P = 0.0387) function group than in the normal function group. CPIII concentration was 27% higher (7%, 51%; P = 0.0071) in the poor function group than in the normal function group. CPI and CPIII detected poor OATP1B1 function with areas under the precision‐recall curve (AUPRC) of 0.388 (95% confidence interval, 0.197, 0.689) and 0.0798 (0.0485, 0.203), and receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) of 0.888 (0.851, 0.919) and 0.731 (0.682, 0.776). The AUPRC and AUROC of GCDCA‐3G were, however, 0.389 (0.258, 0.563) and 0.100 (−0.0046, 0.204; P = 0.0610) larger than those of CPI, and 0.697 (0.555, 0.831) and 0.257 (0.141, 0.373; P < 0.0001) larger than those of CPIII. In conclusion, these data indicate that plasma CPI outperforms CPIII in detecting altered OATP1B1 function, but GCDCA‐3G is an even more sensitive OATP1B1 biomarker than CPI.

Abstract
Membrane transporters play an important role in the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of xenobiotic substrates, as well as endogenous compounds. The evaluation of transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions (DDIs) is an important consideration during the drug development process and can guide the safe use of polypharmacy regimens in clinical practice. In recent years, several endogenous substrates of drug transporters have been identified as potential biomarkers for predicting changes in drug transport function and the potential for DDIs associated with drug candidates in early phases of drug development. These biomarker-driven investigations have been applied in both preclinical and clinical studies and proposed as a predictive strategy that can be supplanted in order to conduct prospective DDIs trials. Here we provide an overview of this rapidly emerging field, with particular emphasis on endogenous biomarkers recently proposed for clinically relevant uptake transporters.

Pharmacogenomics of statins: lipid response and other outcomes in Brazilian cohorts. Pharmacol Rep 2021; 74:47-66. [PMID: 34403130 DOI: 10.1007/s43440-021-00319-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2021] [Revised: 07/21/2021] [Accepted: 07/30/2021] [Indexed: 01/20/2023]
Abstract
Statins are inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase, a key enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, that are highly effective in reducing plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and decreasing the risk of cardiovascular events. In recent years, a multitude of variants in genes involved in pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) have been suggested to influence the cholesterol-lowering response. However, the vast majority of studies have analyzed the pharmacogenetic associations in populations in Europe and the USA, whereas data in other populations, including Brazil, are mostly lacking. This narrative review provides an update of clinical studies on statin pharmacogenomics in Brazilian cohorts exploring lipid-lowering response, adverse events and pleiotropic effects. We find that variants in drug transporter genes (SLCO1B1 and ABCB1) positively impacted atorvastatin and simvastatin response, whereas variants in genes of drug metabolizing enzymes (CYP3A5) decreased response. Furthermore, multiple associations of variants in PD genes (HMGCR, LDLR and APOB) with statin response were identified. Few studies have explored statin-related adverse events, and only ABCB1 but not SLCO1B1 variants were robustly associated with increased risk in Brazil. Statin-related pleiotropic effects were shown to be influenced by variants in PD (LDLR, NR1H2) and antioxidant enzyme (NOS3, SOD2, MTHFR, SELENOP) genes. The findings of these studies indicate that statin pharmacogenomic associations are distinctly different in Brazil compared to other populations. This review also discusses the clinical implications of pharmacogenetic studies and the rising importance of investigating rare variants to explore their association with statin response.

Evaluation of Normothermic Machine Perfusion of Porcine Livers as a Novel Preclinical Model to Predict Biliary Clearance and Transporter-Mediated Drug-Drug Interactions Using Statins. Drug Metab Dispos 2021; 49:780-789. [PMID: 34330719 DOI: 10.1124/dmd.121.000521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2021] [Accepted: 06/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
There is a lack of translational preclinical models that can predict hepatic handling of drugs. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the applicability of normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) of porcine livers as a novel ex vivo model to predict hepatic clearance, biliary excretion, and plasma exposure of drugs. For this evaluation, we dosed atorvastatin, pitavastatin, and rosuvastatin as model drugs to porcine livers and studied the effect of common drug-drug interactions (DDIs) on these processes. After 120 minutes of perfusion, 0.104 mg atorvastatin (n = 3), 0.140 mg pitavastatin (n = 5), or 1.4 mg rosuvastatin (n = 4) was administered to the portal vein, which was followed 120 minutes later by a second bolus of the statin coadministered with OATP perpetrator drug rifampicin (67.7 mg). After the first dose, all statins were rapidly cleared from the circulation (hepatic extraction ratio > 0.7) and excreted into the bile. Presence of human-specific atorvastatin metabolites confirmed the metabolic capacity of porcine livers. The predicted biliary clearance of rosuvastatin was found to be closer to the observed biliary clearance. A rank order of the DDI between the various systems upon coadministration with rifampicin could be observed: atorvastatin (AUC ratio 7.2) > rosuvastatin (AUC ratio 3.1) > pitavastatin (AUC ratio 2.6), which is in good agreement with the clinical DDI data. The results from this study demonstrated the applicability of using NMP of porcine livers as a novel preclinical model to study OATP-mediated DDI and its effect on hepatic clearance, biliary excretion, and plasma profile of drugs. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: This study evaluated the use of normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) of porcine livers as a novel preclinical model to study hepatic clearance, biliary excretion, plasma (metabolite) profile of statins, and OATP-mediated DDI. Results showed that NMP of porcine livers is a reliable model to study OATP-mediated DDI. Overall, the rank order of DDI severity indicated in these experiments is in good agreement with clinical data, indicating the potential importance of this new ex vivo model in early drug discovery.

Abstract
Organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) 1B are drug transporters mainly expressed in the sinusoidal membrane. In previous reports, genetic factor, 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid (CMPF), which is one of the uremic toxins, inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) decreased OATP1B1 activity in vitro, but in vivo effects of these factors have not been elucidated. Plasma coproporphyrin-I (CP-I) is spotlighted as a highly accurate endogenous substrate of OATP1B. This study focused on patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and evaluated the influence of several factors comprising gene polymorphisms, uremic toxins, and inflammatory cytokines on OATP1B activity using plasma CP-I concentration. Thirty-seven outpatients with RA who satisfied the selection criteria were analyzed at the time of recruitment (baseline) and at the next visit. OATP1B1*15 carriers tended to have higher CP-I concentration compared with noncarriers. Plasma CP-I correlated positively with CMPF concentration, but did not correlate with IL-6 or TNF-α concentration. Multiple logistic regression analysis by stepwise selection identified plasma CMPF concentration and OATP1B1*15 allele as significant factors independently affecting plasma CP-I concentration at baseline and at the next visit, respectively. In conclusion, the present results suggest that inflammatory cytokines do not have clinically significant effects on OATP1B activity, whereas the effects of genetic polymorphisms and uremic toxins should be considered.

Minimal contribution of the hepatic uptake transporter OATP1B1 to the inter-individual variability in SN-38 pharmacokinetics in cancer patients without severe renal failure. Cancer Chemother Pharmacol 2021; 88:543-553. [PMID: 34117512 DOI: 10.1007/s00280-021-04314-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2021] [Accepted: 06/05/2021] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE SN-38, a pharmacologically active metabolite of irinotecan, is taken up into hepatocytes by organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1. The effects of functional OATP1B1 521T>C on the pharmacokinetics of SN-38 remain controversial. Here, we prospectively examined the effects of OATP1B1 function on the area under the plasma total or unbound concentration-time curve (tAUC or uAUC) of SN-38 by assessing OATP1B1 521T>C and the plasma levels of endogenous OATP1B1 substrates, coproporphyrin (CP)-I and III, in cancer patients treated with irinotecan. METHODS We enrolled cancer patients who were treated with an irinotecan-containing regimen and did not have severe renal failure. The total and unbound concentrations of SN-38 in the plasma were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. AUC values were calculated and normalized to the actual irinotecan dose (AUC/dose). The OATP1B1 521T>C was analyzed by direct sequencing. Concentrations of the endogenous substrates in plasma before irinotecan treatment (baseline) were determined by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. RESULTS Twenty-two patients with a median estimated glomerular filtration rate of 74.8 mL/min (range 32.6-99.6) were examined. Both tAUC/dose and uAUC/dose were associated with the grade of neutropenia; however, they were not associated with OATP1B1 521T>C or baseline CP-I and III levels. It is worth noting that these baseline concentrations were significantly higher in patients with OATP1B1 521C, supporting functional changes in OATP1B1. CONCLUSION The contribution of OATP1B1 activity to inter-patient variability in the systemic exposure to SN-38 is likely minimal in patients without severe renal failure.

Abstract
Coproporphyrins (CP-I and CP-III) in plasma are considered potential markers for assessing liver organic anion-transporting polypeptide transporter OATP1B activity and monitoring OATP1B-mediated drug-drug interactions (DDIs) in clinical settings. However, the effect of altered renal clearance (CLrenal ) on CP-I and CP-III plasma exposure has rarely been examined. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to further evaluate CP-I and CP-III as clinical endogenous markers for OATP1B activity and to investigate the impact of CLrenal on DDI assessments for the first time. In this study, 18 healthy participants were recruited to receive RO7049389 (a potential inhibitor of OATP1B) 800 mg twice daily for 6 days and a single dose of pitavastatin (a probe drug of OATP1B) before and after RO7049389 treatment. Plasma concentrations of pitavastatin, CP I, CP III, and the amounts of CP-I and CP-III excreted in urine were measured. Seventeen healthy participants completed the study. After multiple doses of RO7049389, the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to 12 hours of pitavastatin increased 1.95-fold (90% confidence interval [CI], 1.58-2.41), while for CP-I and CP-III it increased 3.00-fold (90%CI, 2.35-3.82) and 2.84-fold (90%CI, 2.22-3.65), respectively. Concurrently, the CLrenal of CP-I decreased by 31% (90%CI, 23%-39%), and that of CP-III decreased by 70% (90%CI, 61%-77%). In conclusion, CP-I and CP-III in plasma display the potential to be applied as endogenous markers for the evaluation of OATP1B inhibition in clinical trials. While renal transporters contribute significantly to the CLrenal of CP-III, it would be better to investigate the impact of the CLrenal on plasma exposure of CP-III during clinical DDI assessments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endogenous biomarkers are promising tools to assess transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions early in humans. METHODS We evaluated on a common and validated in vitro system the selectivity of 4-pyridoxic acid (PDA), homovanillic acid (HVA), glycochenodeoxycholate-3-sulphate (GCDCA-S) and taurine towards different renal transporters, including multidrug resistance-associated protein, and assessed the in vivo biomarker sensitivity towards the strong organic anion transporter (OAT) inhibitor probenecid at 500 mg every 6 h to reach close to complete OAT inhibition. RESULTS PDA and HVA were substrates of the OAT1/2/3, OAT4 (PDA only) and multidrug resistance-associated protein 4; GCDCA-S was more selective, having affinity only towards OAT3 and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2. Taurine was not a substrate of any of the investigated transporters under the in vitro conditions tested. Plasma exposure of PDA and HVA significantly increased and the renal clearance of GCDCA-S, PDA and HVA decreased; the magnitude of these changes was comparable to those of known clinical OAT probe substrates. PDA and GCDCA-S were the most promising endogenous biomarkers of the OAT pathway activity: PDA plasma exposure was the most sensitive to probenecid inhibition, and, in contrast, GCDCA-S was the most sensitive OAT biomarker based on renal clearance, with higher selectivity towards the OAT3 transporter. CONCLUSIONS The current findings illustrate a clear benefit of measuring PDA plasma exposure during phase I studies when a clinical drug candidate is suspected to be an OAT inhibitor based on in vitro data. Subsequently, combined monitoring of PDA and GCDCA-S in both urine and plasma is recommended to tease out the involvement of OAT1/3 in the inhibition interaction.

Effects of Probenecid on Hepatic and Renal Disposition of Hexadecanedioate, an Endogenous Substrate of Organic Anion Transporting Polypeptide 1B in Rats. J Pharm Sci 2021; 110:2274-2284.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate changes in plasma concentrations and tissue distribution of endogenous substrates of organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B, hexadecanedioate (HDA), octadecanedioate (ODA), tetradecanedioate (TDA), and coproporphyrin-III, induced by its weak inhibitor, probenecid (PBD), in rats. PBD increased the plasma concentrations of these four compounds regardless of bile duct cannulation, whereas liver-to-plasma (Kp,liver) and kidney-to-plasma concentration ratios of HDA and TDA were reduced. Similar effects of PBD on plasma concentrations and Kp,liver of HDA, ODA, and TDA were observed in kidney-ligated rats, suggesting a minor contribution of renal disposition to the overall distribution of these three compounds. Tissue uptake clearance of deuterium-labeled HDA (d-HDA) in liver was 16-fold higher than that in kidney, and was reduced by 80% by PBD. This was compatible with inhibition by PBD of d-HDA uptake in isolated rat hepatocytes. Such inhibitory effects of PBD were also observed in the human OATP1B1-mediated uptake of d-HDA. Overall, the disposition of HDA is mainly determined by hepatic OATP-mediated uptake, which is inhibited by PBD. HDA might, thus, be a biomarker for OATPs minimally affected by urinary and biliary elimination in rats.

Abstract
Coproporphyrin I (CPI) is an endogenous biomarker of OATP1B activity and associated drug-drug interactions. In this study, a minimal physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model was developed to investigate the impact of OATP1B1 genotype (c.521T>C), ethnicity, and sex on CPI pharmacokinetics and interindividual variability in its baseline. The model implemented mechanistic descriptions of CPI hepatic transport between liver blood and liver tissue and renal excretion. Key model parameters (e.g., endogenous CPI synthesis rate, and CPI hepatic uptake clearance) were estimated by fitting the model simultaneously to three independent CPI clinical datasets (plasma and urine data) obtained from white (n = 16, men and women) and Asian-Indian (n = 26, all men) subjects, with c.521 variants (TT, TC, and CC). The optimized CPI model successfully described the observed data using c.521T>C genotype, ethnicity, and sex as covariates. CPI hepatic active was 79% lower in 521CC relative to the wild type and 42% lower in Asian-Indians relative to white subjects, whereas CPI synthesis was 23% higher in male relative to female subjects. Parameter sensitivity analysis showed marginal impact of the assumption of CPI synthesis site (blood or liver), resulting in comparable recovery of plasma and urine CPI data. Lower magnitude of CPI-drug interaction was simulated in 521CC subjects, suggesting the risk of underestimation of CPI-drug interaction without prior OATP1B1 genotyping. The CPI model incorporates key covariates contributing to interindividual variability in its baseline and highlights the utility of the CPI modeling to facilitate the design of prospective clinical studies to maximize the sensitivity of this biomarker.

Abstract
Physiologically based pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PBPK/PD) modeling has been extensively applied to quantitatively translate in vitro data, predict the in vivo performance, and ultimately support waivers of in vivo clinical studies. In the area of biopharmaceutics and within the context of model-informed drug discovery and development (MID3), there is a rapidly growing interest in applying verified and validated mechanistic PBPK models to waive in vivo clinical studies. However, the regulatory acceptance of PBPK analyses for biopharmaceutics and oral drug absorption applications, which is also referred to variously as "PBPK absorption modeling" [Zhang et al. CPT: Pharmacometrics Syst. Pharmacol. 2017, 6, 492], "physiologically based absorption modeling", or "physiologically based biopharmaceutics modeling" (PBBM), remains rather low [Kesisoglou et al. J. Pharm. Sci. 2016, 105, 2723] [Heimbach et al. AAPS J. 2019, 21, 29]. Despite considerable progress in the understanding of gastrointestinal (GI) physiology, in vitro biopharmaceutic and in silico tools, PBPK models for oral absorption often suffer from an incomplete understanding of the physiology, overparameterization, and insufficient model validation and/or platform verification, all of which can represent limitations to their translatability and predictive performance. The complex interactions of drug substances and (bioenabling) formulations with the highly dynamic and heterogeneous environment of the GI tract in different age, ethnic, and genetic groups as well as disease states have not been yet fully elucidated, and they deserve further research. Along with advancements in the understanding of GI physiology and refinement of current or development of fully mechanistic in silico tools, we strongly believe that harmonization, interdisciplinary interaction, and enhancement of the translational link between in vitro, in silico, and in vivo will determine the future of PBBM. This Perspective provides an overview of the current status of PBBM, reflects on challenges and knowledge gaps, and discusses future opportunities around PBPK/PD models for oral absorption of small and large molecules to waive in vivo clinical studies.

Abstract
Organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1 and OATP1B3 are involved in the disposition of a variety of commonly prescribed drugs. The evaluation of OATP1B1/1B3 inhibition potential by investigational drugs is of interest during clinical drug development due to various adverse events associated with increased exposures of their substrates. Regulatory guidance documents on the in vitro assessment of OATP1B1/1B3 inhibition potential are conservative with up to a third of predictions resulting in false positives. This work investigated the utility of OATP1B1/1B3 endogenous biomarkers, coproporphyrin (CP)‐I and CP‐III, to assess clinical inhibition of OATP1B1/1B3 and potentially eliminate the need for prospective clinical drug‐drug interaction (DDI) studies. Correlations between CP‐I exposures and various OATP1B1 static DDI predictions were also evaluated. Glecaprevir/pibrentasvir (GLE/PIB) 300/120 mg fixed‐dose combination is known to cause clinical inhibition of OATP1B1/1B3. In a clinical study evaluating the relative bioavailability of various formulations of GLE/PIB regimen, CP‐I peak plasma concentration (Cmax) ratio and 0–16‐hour area under the concentration‐time curve (AUC0–16) ratio relative to baseline increased with increasing GLE exposures, whereas there was a modest correlation between GLE exposure and CP‐III Cmax ratio but no correlation with CP‐III AUC0–16 ratio. This suggests that CP‐I is superior to CP‐III as an endogenous biomarker for evaluation of OATP1B1 inhibition. There was a significant correlation between CP‐I and GLE Cmax (R2 = 0.65; P < 0.001) across individual subjects. Correlation analysis between GLE OATP1B1 R values and CP‐I exposures (Cmax ratio and AUC0–16 ratio) suggests that an R value of > 3 can predict a biologically meaningful inhibition of OATP1B1 when the inhibitor clinical pharmacokinetic parameters are available.

Abstract
Coproporphyrin-I (CP-I) in plasma is a sensitive and specific endogenous probe for phenotyping organic anion transporting polypeptides 1B (OATP1B, encoded by SLCO1B). A few small-scale studies suggested that plasma CP-I concentration is affected by OATP1B1 polymorphism, but detailed studies are lacking. In this large-scale study, we measured plasma CP-I concentrations in 391 subjects from the Japanese general population, and evaluated the relationship between plasma CP-I concentrations and OATP1B1 polymorphisms to further assess the utility of plasma CP-I concentrations as an endogenous OATP1B probe. Plasma CP-I concentrations were 0.45 ± 0.12, 0.47 ± 0.16, 0.47 ± 0.20, 0.50 ± 0.15, 0.54 ± 0.14, and 0.74 ± 0.31 ng/mL in participants with OATP1B1*1b/*1b (n = 103), *1a/*1b (n = 122), *1a/*1a (n = 40), *1b/*15 (n = 74), *1a/*15 (n = 41), and *15/*15 (n = 11), respectively, showing an ascending rank order with significant difference (P < 0.0001). Post hoc analysis revealed significant increases in plasma CP-I concentration in OATP1B1*1b/*15 (P = 0.036), *1a/*15 (P = 0.0005), and *15/*15 (P = 0.0003) groups compared with the OATP1B1*1b/*1b group. There was no significant difference among OATP1B genotypes in plasma concentration of 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid, a uremic toxin reported to decrease OATP1B activity in vivo. These findings confirm the utility of plasma CP-I concentrations as an endogenous biomarker for phenotyping of OATP1B activity. Plasma CP-I concentration is potentially useful for the study of drug-drug interactions via OATP1B or individual dose adjustment of OATP1B substrates.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the sensitivity and specificity of endogenous glycochenodeoxycholate and glycodeoxycholate 3-O-glucuronides (GCDCA-3G and GDCA-3G) as substrates for organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1) in humans. We measured fasting levels of plasma GCDCA-3G and GDCA-3G using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry in 356 healthy volunteers. The mean plasma levels of both compounds were ~ 50% lower in women than in men (P = 2.25 × 10-18 and P = 4.73 × 10-9 ). In a microarray-based genome-wide association study, the SLCO1B1 rs4149056 (c.521T>C, p.Val174Ala) variation showed the strongest association with the plasma GCDCA-3G (P = 3.09 × 10-30 ) and GDCA-3G (P = 1.60 × 10-17 ) concentrations. The mean plasma concentration of GCDCA-3G was 9.2-fold (P = 8.77 × 10-31 ) and that of GDCA-3G was 6.4-fold (P = 2.45x10-13 ) higher in individuals with the SLCO1B1 c.521C/C genotype than in those with the c.521T/T genotype. No other variants showed independent genome-wide significant associations with GCDCA-3G or GDCA-3G. GCDCA-3G was highly efficacious in detecting the SLCO1B1 c.521C/C genotype with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.996 (P < 0.0001). The sensitivity (98-99%) and specificity (100%) peaked at a cutoff value of 180 ng/mL for men and 90 ng/mL for women. In a haplotype-based analysis, SLCO1B1*5 and *15 were associated with reduced, and SLCO1B1*1B, *14, and *35 with increased OATP1B1 function. In vitro, both GCDCA-3G and GDCA-3G showed at least 6 times higher uptake by OATP1B1 than OATP1B3 or OATP2B1. These data indicate that the hepatic uptake of GCDCA-3G and GDCA-3G is predominantly mediated by OATP1B1. GCDCA-3G, in particular, is a highly sensitive and specific OATP1B1 biomarker in humans.

Abstract
Drug transporters play important roles in the elimination of various compounds from the blood. Genetic variation and drug-drug interactions underlie the pharmacokinetic differences for the substrates of drug transporters. Some endogenous substrates of drug transporters have emerged as biomarkers to assess differences in drug transporter activity-not only in animals, but also in humans. Metabolomic analysis is a promising approach for identifying such endogenous substrates through their metabolites. The appropriateness of metabolites is supported by studies in vitro and in vivo, both in animals and through pharmacogenomic or drug-drug interaction studies in humans. This review summarizes current progress in identifying such endogenous biomarkers and applying them to drug transporter phenotyping.

Abstract
Chemicals have multiple effects in biological systems. Because their on-target effects dominate the output, their off-target effects are often overlooked and can sometimes cause dangerous adverse events. Recently, we developed a novel decomposition profile data analysis method, orthogonal linear separation analysis (OLSA), to analyse multiple effects. In this study, we tested whether OLSA identified the ability of drugs to induce endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress as a previously unrecognized factor. After analysing the transcriptome profiles of MCF7 cells treated with different chemicals, we focused on a vector characterized by well-known ER stress inducers, such as ciclosporin A. We selected five drugs predicted to be unrecognized ER stress inducers, based on their inducing ability scores derived from OLSA. These drugs actually induced X-box binding protein 1 splicing, an indicator of ER stress, in MCF7 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. Two structurally different representatives of the five test compounds exhibited similar results in HepG2 and HuH7 cells, but not in PXB primary hepatocytes derived from human-liver chimeric mice. These results indicate that our decomposition strategy using OLSA uncovered the ER stress-inducing ability of drugs as an unrecognized effect, the manifestation of which depended on the background of the cells.

Abstract
Renal impairment (RI) is known to influence the pharmacokinetics of nonrenally eliminated drugs, although the mechanism and clinical impact is poorly understood. We assessed the impact of RI and single dose oral rifampin (RIF) on the pharmacokinetics of CYP3A, OATP1B, P-gp, and BCRP substrates using a microdose cocktail and OATP1B endogenous biomarkers. RI alone had no impact on midazolam (MDZ), maximum plasma concentration (Cmax ), and area under the curve (AUC), but a progressive increase in AUC with RI severity for dabigatran (DABI), and up to ~2-fold higher AUC for pitavastatin (PTV), rosuvastatin (RSV), and atorvastatin (ATV) for all degrees of RI was observed. RIF did not impact MDZ, had a progressively smaller DABI drug-drug interaction (DDI) with increasing RI severity, a similar 3.1-fold to 4.4-fold increase in PTV and RSV AUC in healthy volunteers and patients with RI, and a diminishing DDI with RI severity from 6.1-fold to 4.7-fold for ATV. Endogenous biomarkers of OATP1B (bilirubin, coproporphyrin I/III, and sulfated bile salts) were generally not impacted by RI, and RIF effects on these biomarkers in RI were comparable or larger than those in healthy volunteers. The lack of a trend with RI severity of PTV and several OATP1B biomarkers, suggests that mechanisms beyond RI directly impacting OATP1B activity could also be considered. The DABI, RSV, and ATV data suggest an impact of RI on intestinal P-gp, and potentially BCRP activity. Therefore, DDI data from healthy volunteers may represent a worst-case scenario for clinically derisking P-gp and BCRP substrates in the setting of RI.

Drug Metab Dispos 2020; 48:387-394. [PMID: 32114508 DOI: 10.1124/dmd.119.089474] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2019] [Accepted: 01/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Paclitaxel has been considered to cause OATP1B-mediated drug-drug interactions at therapeutic doses; however, its clinical relevance has not been demonstrated. This study aimed to elucidate in vivo inhibition potency of paclitaxel against OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 using endogenous OATP1B biomarkers. Paclitaxel is an inhibitor of OATP1B1 and OATP1B3, with Ki of 0.579 ± 0.107 and 5.29 ± 3.87 μM, respectively. Preincubation potentiated its inhibitory effect on both OATP1B1 and OATP1B3, with Ki of 0.154 ± 0.031 and 0.624 ± 0.183 μM, respectively. Ten patients with non-small cell lung cancer who received 200 mg/m2 of paclitaxel by a 3-hour infusion were recruited. Plasma concentrations of 10 endogenous OATP1B biomarkers-namely, coproporphyrin I, coproporphyrin III, glycochenodeoxycholate-3-sulfate, glycochenodeoxycholate-3-glucuronide, glycodeoxycholate-3-sulfate, glycodeoxycholate-3-glucuronide, lithocholate-3-sulfate, glycolithocholate-3-sulfate, taurolithocholate-3-sulfate, and chenodeoxycholate-24-glucuronide-were determined in the patients with non-small cell lung cancer on the day before paclitaxel administration and after the end of paclitaxel infusion for 7 hours. Paclitaxel increased the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of the endogenous biomarkers 2- to 4-fold, although a few patients did not show any increment in the AUC ratios of lithocholate-3-sulfate, glycolithocholate-3-sulfate, and taurolithocholate-3-sulfate. Therapeutic doses of paclitaxel for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (200 mg/m2) will cause significant OATP1B1 inhibition during and at the end of the infusion. This is the first demonstration that endogenous OATP1B biomarkers could serve as surrogate biomarkers in patients. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Endogenous biomarkers can address practical and ethical issues in elucidating transporter-mediated drug-drug interaction (DDI) risks of anticancer drugs clinically. We could elucidate a significant increment of the plasma concentrations of endogenous OATP1B biomarkers after a 3-hour infusion (200 mg/m2) of paclitaxel, a time-dependent inhibitor of OATP1B, in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. The endogenous OATP1B biomarkers are useful to assess the possibility of OATP1B-mediated DDIs in patients and help in appropriately designing a dosing schedule to avoid the DDIs.

Abstract
Clinical reports on transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions (TP-DDIs) have rapidly accumulated and regulatory guidance/guidelines recommend that sponsors consider performing quantitative prediction of TP-DDI risks in the process of drug development. In vitro experiments for characterizing the function of drug transporters have been established and various parameters such as the inhibition constant (Ki) of drugs and the intrinsic uptake/efflux clearance for a certain transporter can be obtained. However, many reports have indicated large discrepancies between the parameters estimated from in vitro experiments and those rationally explaining drug pharmacokinetics. Thus, it is essential to evaluate directly the function of each transporter isoform in vivo in humans. At present, several transporter substrate drugs and endogenous compounds have been recognized as probe substrates for a specific transporter and transporter function was evaluated by monitoring the plasma and urine concentration of those probes; however, few compounds specifically transported via a single transporter isoform have been found. For monitoring the intraorgan concentration of drugs, positron emission tomography can be a powerful tool and clinical examples for quantification of in vivo transporter function have been published. In this review, novel methodologies for in vivo phenotyping of transporter function are summarized.

Abstract
To address the most appropriate endogenous biomarker for drug–drug interaction risk assessment, eight healthy subjects received an organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B (OATP1B) inhibitor (rifampicin, 150, 300, and 600 mg), and a probe drug cocktail (atorvastatin, pitavastatin, rosuvastatin, and valsartan). In addition to coproporphyrin I, a widely studied OATP1B biomarker, we identified at least 4 out of 28 compounds (direct bilirubin, glycochenodeoxycholate‐3‐glucuronide, glycochenodeoxycholate‐3‐sulfate, and hexadecanedioate) that presented good sensitivity and dynamic range in terms of the rifampicin dose‐dependent change in area under the plasma concentration‐time curve ratio (AUCR). Their suitability as OATP1B biomarkers was also supported by the good correlation of AUC0‐24h between the endogenous compounds and the probe drugs, and by nonlinear regression analysis (AUCR−1 vs. rifampicin plasma Cmax (maximum total concentration in plasma)) to yield an estimate of the inhibition constant of rifampicin. These endogenous substrates can complement existing OATP1B‐mediated drug–drug interaction risk assessment approaches based on agency guidelines in early clinical trials.

Abstract
Introduction: Statins are prescribed widely for cholesterol-lowering therapy, but it is known that their efficacy and safety profiles vary, despite the shared pharmacophore and pharmacological target. The immense body of related clinical and preclinical data offers a unique opportunity to explore the possible factors underlying inter-statin and inter-individual variabilities.Area covered: Clinical and preclinical data from various statins were compiled with regard to the efficacy (cholesterol-lowering effect) and safety (muscle toxicity). Based on the compiled data, dose- and exposure-response relationships were explored to obtain mechanistic and quantitative insights into the variations in the efficacy and safety profiles of statins.Expert opinion: Our analyses indicated that the inter-statin variability in the cholesterol-lowering effect may be mainly attributable to variations in potency of inhibition of the pharmacological target, rather than variations in drug exposure at the site of drug action. However, the drug exposure at the sites of drug action (i.e., the liver for efficacy and the muscle for safety) may contribute to the differences in the efficacy and safety observed in individual patients.

Abstract
Understanding transporter‐mediated drug–drug interactions is an integral part of risk assessment in drug development. Recent studies support the use of hexadecanedioate (HDA), tetradecanedioate (TDA), coproporphyrin (CP)‐I, and CP‐III as clinical biomarkers for evaluating organic anion‐transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1 (SLCO1B1) inhibition. The current study investigated the effect of OATP1B1 genotype c.521T>C (OATP1B1‐Val174Ala) on the extent of interaction between cyclosporin A (CsA) and pravastatin, and associated endogenous biomarkers of the transporter (HDA, TDA, CP‐I, and CP‐III), in 20 healthy volunteers. The results show that the levels of each clinical biomarker and pravastatin were significantly increased in plasma samples of the volunteers following administration of pravastatin plus CsA compared with pravastatin plus placebo. The overall fold change in the area under the concentration–time curve (AUC) and maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) was similar among the four biomarkers (1.8–2.5‐fold, paired t‐test P value < 0.05) in individuals who were homozygotes or heterozygotes of the major allele, c.521T. However, the fold change in AUC and Cmax for HDA and TDA was significantly abolished in the subjects who were c.521‐CC, whereas the respective fold change in AUC and Cmax for pravastatin and CP‐I and CP‐III were slightly weaker in individuals who were c.521‐CC compared with c.521‐TT/TC genotypes. In addition, this study provides the first evidence that SLCO1B1 c.521T>C genotype is significantly associated with CP‐I but not CP‐III levels. Overall, these results suggest that OATP1B1 genotype can modulate the effects of CsA on biomarker levels; the extent of modulation differs among the biomarkers.

Abstract
The present study examined the significance of enterohepatic circulation and the effect of rifampicin [an inhibitor of organic anion-transporting polypeptide 1B (OATP1B)] on the plasma concentrations of bile acid-O-sulfates (glycochenodeoxycholate-O-sulfate, lithocholate-O-sulfate, glycolithocholate-O-sulfate, and taurolithocholate-O-sulfate) in monkeys and human liver-transplanted chimeric mice (PXB mouse). Rifampicin significantly increased the area under the curve of bile acid-O-sulfates in monkeys (13-69 times) and PXB mice (13-25 times) without bile flow diversion. Bile flow diversion reduced the concentration of plasma bile acid-O-sulfates under control conditions in monkeys and the concentration of plasma glycochenodeoxycholate-O-sulfate in PXB mice. It also diminished diurnal variation of plasma lithocholate-O-sulfate, glycolithocholate-O-sulfate, and taurolithocholate-O-sulfate in PXB mice under control conditions. Bile flow diversion did not affect the plasma concentration of bile acid-O-sulfates in monkeys and PXB mice treated with rifampicin. Plasma coproporphyrin I and III levels were constant in monkeys throughout the study, even with bile flow diversion. This study demonstrated that bile acid-O-sulfates are endogenous OATP1B biomarkers in monkeys and PXB mice. Enterohepatic circulation can affect the baseline levels of plasma bile acid-O-sulfates and modify the effect of OATP1B inhibition.
