Transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions: regulatory guidelines, in vitro and in vivo methodologies and translation, special populations, and the blood-brain barrier. Drug Metab Rev 2024:1-28. [PMID: 38967415 DOI: 10.1080/03602532.2024.2364591] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/31/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
This review, part of a special issue on drug-drug interactions (DDIs) spearheaded by the International Society for the Study of Xenobiotics (ISSX) New Investigators, explores the critical role of drug transporters in absorption, disposition, and clearance in the context of DDIs. Over the past two decades, significant advances have been made in understanding the clinical relevance of these transporters. Current knowledge on key uptake and efflux transporters that affect drug disposition and development is summarized. Regulatory guidelines from the FDA, EMA, and PMDA that inform the evaluation of potential transporter-mediated DDIs are discussed in detail. Methodologies for preclinical and clinical testing to assess potential DDIs are reviewed, with an emphasis on the utility of physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling. This includes the application of relative abundance and expression factors to predict human pharmacokinetics (PK) using preclinical data, integrating the latest regulatory guidelines. Considerations for assessing transporter-mediated DDIs in special populations, including pediatric, hepatic, and renal impairment groups, are provided. Additionally, the impact of transporters at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) on the disposition of CNS-related drugs is explored. Enhancing the understanding of drug transporters and their role in drug disposition and toxicity can improve efficacy and reduce adverse effects. Continued research is essential to bridge remaining gaps in knowledge, particularly in comparison with cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes.

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.

Allergy 2023; 78:429-438. [PMID: 36254396 DOI: 10.1111/all.15554] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2022] [Revised: 08/29/2022] [Accepted: 09/12/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intake of fish-oil and fatty fish during pregnancy has been shown to reduce the risk of childhood asthma but biomarkers of such intake are lacking. OBJECTIVE To establish biomarkers of prenatal fish-oil exposure from newborn dry blood spot metabolomics profiles and assess their relevance for childhood asthma risk stratification. METHODS The Danish COPSAC2010 mother-child cohort was utilized to investigate the effect of a double-blinded randomized controlled trial of fish-oil supplementation during pregnancy on dry blood spot liquid-chromatography mass spectrometry-based metabolomics profiles of 677 newborns. We thereafter investigated the association between fish-oil associated biomarkers in the newborn and development of asthma-related outcomes. Replication was sought in the independent observational COPSAC2000 cohort with 387 newborn metabolomics profiles. RESULTS The newborn metabolomics profiles differed between children in the fish-oil vs. placebo group in COPSAC2010 (area under the receiver operator curve = 0.94 ± 0.03, p < .001). The fish-oil metabolomics profile and the top biomarker, 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furan propanoic acid (CMPF) were both associated with a decreased risk of asthma by age 6 years (HR = 0.89, p = .002 and HR = 0.67, p = .005, respectively). In COPSAC2000 , newborn CMPF level was also inversely associated with asthma risk by age 6 years (HR = 0.69, p = .01). Troublesome lung symptoms and common infections in the first 3 years were also inversely associated with newborn CMPF levels in both cohorts. CONCLUSIONS Newborn children's blood levels of the furan fatty acid metabolite CMPF reflect fish-oil and fatty fish intake during pregnancy and are associated with a lower risk of asthma across two cohorts, which could aid newborn screening for childhood asthma.

Positive correlation between organic anion transporter 1B function indicated by plasma concentration of coproporphyrin-I and blood concentration of cyclosporin A in real-world patients. Br J Clin Pharmacol 2022; 89:1672-1681. [PMID: 36517987 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.15640] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2022] [Revised: 10/20/2022] [Accepted: 11/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS Cyclosporin A (CyA) has potent inhibitory activity on organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B (OATP1B), causing drug-drug interactions with its substrate drugs. 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropionate (CMPF), a uraemic toxin, has also been suggested to inhibit OATP1B activity. Recent study has identified coproporphyrin-I (CP-I) as a specific endogenous substrate for OATP1B, which is useful to indicate OATP1B activity. We investigated the relationship of CP-I with CyA and CMPF concentrations in patients taking CyA. METHODS In total, 121 blood samples from 74 patients who took CyA and underwent routine therapeutic drug monitoring were divided into trough and peak samples. RESULTS CyA and CP-I concentrations were significantly higher in peak samples than in trough samples. A positive correlation between CP-I and CyA concentrations was found in all samples and in trough and peak samples, while no correlation was observed between CP-I and CMPF concentrations. Multiple regression analysis identified CyA and C-reactive protein concentrations as independent factors affecting CP-I concentration, with blood CyA concentration having markedly greater contribution to plasma CP-I concentration. CONCLUSION The present study suggests that CyA inhibits OATP1B activity in a concentration-dependent manner in clinical setting, and that dose adjustment of OATP1B substrate drugs coadministered with CyA according to plasma CMPF concentration may not be necessary.

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
The role of membrane transporters on pharmacokinetics (PKs), drug-drug interactions (DDIs), pharmacodynamics (PDs), and toxicity of drugs has been broadly recognized. However, our knowledge of modulation of transporter expression and/or function in the diseased patient population or specific populations, such as pediatrics or pregnancy, is still emerging. This white paper highlights recent advances in studying the changes in transporter expression and activity in various diseases (i.e., renal and hepatic impairment and cancer) and some specific populations (i.e., pediatrics and pregnancy) with the focus on clinical implications. Proposed alterations in transporter abundance and/or activity in diseased and specific populations are based on (i) quantitative transporter proteomic data and relative abundance in specific populations vs. healthy adults, (ii) clinical PKs, and emerging transporter biomarker and/or pharmacogenomic data, and (iii) physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modeling and simulation. The potential for altered PK, PD, and toxicity in these populations needs to be considered for drugs and their active metabolites in which transporter-mediated uptake/efflux is a major contributor to their absorption, distribution, and elimination pathways and/or associated DDI risk. In addition to best practices, this white paper discusses current challenges and knowledge gaps to study and quantitatively predict the effects of modulation in transporter activity in these populations, together with the perspectives from the International Transporter Consortium (ITC) on future directions.

Abstract
Indoxyl sulfate and 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid are uremic toxins that accumulate in renal failure, and have been reported to decrease the activities of the drug metabolizing enzyme cytochrome P450 3A and the drug transporter organic anion transporting polypeptides 1B, respectively. In this study, we established and validated an assay for simultaneous quantification of indoxyl sulfate and 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid in human plasma. The samples were pretreated by SPE, and measured by UHPLC-MS/MS. The validation results for this assay were within the acceptable limits recommended by the US Food and Drug Administration, with a lower limit of quantification of 0.05 μg/mL for both indoxyl sulfate and 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid. Recovery rates of indoxyl sulfate and 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid corrected by internal standard were 100.7%-101.9% and 100.2%-101.3%, respectively. Matrix effects of indoxyl sulfate and 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid corrected by internal standard were 101.1%-105.5% and 97.0%-103.8%, respectively. The validated assay was used to analyze indoxyl sulfate and 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid concentrations in the plasma samples of healthy volunteers and patients with chronic kidney disease. All the measured plasma indoxyl sulfate and 3-carboxy-4-methyl-5-propyl-2-furanpropanoic acid concentrations were within the calibration ranges. This novel method may contribute to predict the activities of drug metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters in individual patients. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Sensitive UHPLC-MS/MS quantification method for 4β- and 4α-hydroxycholesterol in human plasma for accurate CYP3A phenotyping. J Lipid Res 2022; 63:100184. [PMID: 35181316 PMCID: PMC8953653 DOI: 10.1016/j.jlr.2022.100184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2021] [Revised: 01/13/2022] [Accepted: 01/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
4β-Hydroxycholesterol (4β-OHC) is formed by CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 and has drawn attention as an endogenous phenotyping probe for CYP3A activity. However, 4β-OHC is also increased by cholesterol autooxidation occurring in vitro due to dysregulated storage and in vivo by oxidative stress or inflammation, independent of CYP3A activity. 4α-hydroxycholesterol (4α-OHC), a stereoisomer of 4β-OHC, is also formed via autooxidation of cholesterol, not by CYP3A, and thus may have clinical potential in reflecting the state of cholesterol autooxidation. In this study, we establish a sensitive method for simultaneous quantification of 4β-OHC and 4α-OHC in human plasma using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). Plasma samples were prepared by saponification, two-step liquid-liquid extraction, and derivatization using picolinic acid. Intense [M+H]+ signals for 4β-OHC and 4α-OHC di-picolinyl esters were monitored using electrospray ionization. The assay fulfilled the requirements of the US Food and Drug Administration guidance for bioanalytical method validation, with a lower limit of quantification of 0.5 ng/mL for both 4β-OHC and 4α-OHC. Apparent recovery rates from human plasma ranged from 88.2% to 101.5% for 4β-OHC, and 91.8% to 114.9% for 4α-OHC. Additionally, matrix effects varied between 86.2% and 117.6% for 4β-OHC, and between 89.5% and 116.9% for 4α-OHC. Plasma 4β-OHC and 4α-OHC concentrations in healthy volunteers, stage 3-5 chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, and stage 5D CKD patients as measured by the validated assay were within the calibration ranges in all samples. We propose this novel quantification method may contribute to accurate evaluation of in vivo CYP3A activity.

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.

Relationship of hemoglobin level and plasma coproporphyrin-I concentrations as an endogenous probe for phenotyping OATP1B. Clin Transl Sci 2021; 14:1403-1411. [PMID: 33650309 PMCID: PMC8301560 DOI: 10.1111/cts.12996] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2020] [Revised: 12/08/2020] [Accepted: 01/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Plasma coproporphyrin‐I (CP‐I) concentration is used as a sensitive and selective endogenous probe for phenotyping organic anion transporting polypeptides 1B (OATP1B) activity in many studies. CP‐I is produced in the process of heme synthesis, but the relationship between plasma CP‐I concentrations and heme synthesis activity is unknown. In this study, we evaluated the relationship between plasma CP‐I concentration and hemoglobin level as a biomarker of heme synthesis activity. The data of 391 subjects selected from the Japanese general population were analyzed. One hundred twenty‐six participants had OATP1B1*15 allele, 11 of whom were homozygous (OATP1B1*15/*15). Multiple regression analysis identified hemoglobin level as an independent variable associated with plasma CP‐I concentration (p < 0.0001). A significant positive correlation was observed between hemoglobin level and plasma CP‐I concentration in participants without OATP1B1*15 allele (n = 265; rs = 0.35, p < 0.0001) and with OATP1B1*15 allele (n = 126; rs =0.27, p = 0.0022). However, Kruskal–Wallis test showed no large difference in Kruskal–Wallis statistics between the distribution of plasma CP‐I concentrations and that of ratio of plasma CP‐I to hemoglobin among six OATP1B1 polymorphism groups. These findings suggest that the hemoglobin level seems to reflect biosynthesis of CP‐I. However, correction by hemoglobin level is not required when using basal plasma CP‐I concentration for phenotyping OATP1B activity.

Substantially Increased Plasma Coproporphyrin-I Concentrations Associated With OATP1B1*15 Allele in Japanese General Population. Clin Transl Sci 2020; 14:382-388. [PMID: 32961019 PMCID: PMC7877856 DOI: 10.1111/cts.12889] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2020] [Accepted: 08/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
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.
