Abstract
Objectives: More than 40 drugs are available to treat affective disorders. Individual selection of the optimal drug and dose is required to attain the highest possible efficacy and acceptable tolerability for every patient.Methods: This review, which includes more than 500 articles selected by 30 experts, combines relevant knowledge on studies investigating the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and pharmacogenetics of 33 antidepressant drugs and of 4 drugs approved for augmentation in cases of insufficient response to antidepressant monotherapy. Such studies typically measure drug concentrations in blood (i.e. therapeutic drug monitoring) and genotype relevant genetic polymorphisms of enzymes, transporters or receptors involved in drug metabolism or mechanism of action. Imaging studies, primarily positron emission tomography that relates drug concentrations in blood and radioligand binding, are considered to quantify target structure occupancy by the antidepressant drugs in vivo. Results: Evidence is given that in vivo imaging, therapeutic drug monitoring and genotyping and/or phenotyping of drug metabolising enzymes should be an integral part in the development of any new antidepressant drug.Conclusions: To guide antidepressant drug therapy in everyday practice, there are multiple indications such as uncertain adherence, polypharmacy, nonresponse and/or adverse reactions under therapeutically recommended doses, where therapeutic drug monitoring and cytochrome P450 genotyping and/or phenotyping should be applied as valid tools of precision medicine.

Abstract
Major depressive disorder is connected with high rates of functional disability and mortality. About a third of the patients are at risk of therapy failure. Several pharmacogenetic markers especially located in CYP450 genes such as CYP2D6 or CYP2C19 are of relevance for therapy outcome prediction in major depressive disorder but a further optimization of predictive tools is warranted. The article summarizes the current knowledge on pharmacogenetic variants, therapy effects and side effects of important antidepressive therapeutics, and sheds light on new methodological approaches for therapy response estimation based on genetic markers with relevance for pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and disease pathology identified in genome-wide association study analyses, highlighting polygenic risk score analysis as a tool for further optimization of individualized therapy outcome prediction.

Abstract
Genetic factors play a significant but complex role in antidepressant (AD) response and tolerability. During recent years, there is growing enthusiasm in the promise of pharmacogenetic/pharmacogenomic (PGx) tools for optimizing and personalizing treatment outcomes for patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). The influence of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic genes on response and tolerability has been investigated, including those encoding the cytochrome P450 superfamily, P-glycoprotein, monoaminergic transporters and receptors, intracellular signal transduction pathways, and the stress hormone system. Genome-wide association studies are also identifying new genetic variants associated with AD response phenotypes, which, combined with methods such as polygenic risk scores (PRS), is opening up new avenues for novel personalized treatment approaches for MDD. This chapter describes the basic concepts in PGx of AD response, reviews the major pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic genes involved in AD outcome, discusses PRS as a promising approach for predicting AD efficacy and tolerability, and addresses key challenges to the development and application of PGx tests.

Abstract
The objective of the study was to investigate the effects of CYP2D6 activity on the efficacy and safety of mirtazapine in patients with depressive disorders and comorbid alcohol use disorder who received mirtazapine. The study included 109 Russian patients who received mirtazapine at a dose of 30.0 [15.0; 45.0] mg per day. Genotyping of CYP2D6*4 (1846G > A, rs3892097) was performed using real-time polymerase chain reaction with allele-specific hybridization. The activity of CYP2D6 was evaluated by determining the concentration of endogenous substrate of the enzyme and its urinary metabolite - pinoline to 6-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline ratio, using high-performance liquid chromatography - mass spectrometry. The statistically significant differences between the scores on the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) in patients with different genotypes were revealed by day 16: (GG) 5.0 [3.0; 6.0], (GA) 1.5 [1.0; 3.2] (p < 0.001), and for the The UKU Side Effects Rating Scale (UKU): (GG) 6.0 [6.0; 7.0], (GA) 8.5 [8.0; 10.0] (p < 0.001). The calculation of correlation coefficients between the differences in scale scores and metabolic rate showed the presence of statistically significant weak inverse correlation with the efficacy indicator evaluated by HAMD (r = -0.278, p < 0.05), but not by UKU (r = 0.274, p > 0.05). This study demonstrated that an increased CYP2D6 activity reduces the efficacy of treatment with mirtazapine.

Abstract
Background Fluvoxamine therapy is used for treatment of patients with depressive disorder, but it is often ineffective, and some patients suffer from dose-dependent undesirable side effects such as vertigo, headache, indigestion, xerostomia, increased anxiety, etc. CYP2D6 is involved in the biotransformation of fluvoxamine. Meanwhile, the genes encoding these isoenzymes have a high level of polymorphism, which may affect the protein synthesis. Objective The primary objective of our study was to investigate the effects of CYP2D6 genetic polymorphisms on the efficacy and safety of fluvoxamine in patients with depressive disorder and comorbid alcohol use disorder, in order to develop the algorithms of optimization of fluvoxamine therapy for reducing the risk of dose-dependent undesirable side effects and pharmacoresistance. Methods The study involved 45 male patients (average age: 36.44±9.96 years) with depressive disorder and comorbid alcohol use disorder. A series of psychometric scales was used in the research. Genotyping of CYP2D6 (1846G>A) was performed using real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results According to results of Mann–Whitney U-test, statistically significant differences between the efficacy and safety of fluvoxamine were obtained on 9th and 16th days of therapy in patients with GG and GA genotypes (The Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression: 10.0 [10.0; 23.0] vs 25.0 [24.0; 16.0] (P<0.001) on the 9th day and 4.0 [2.0; 5.0] vs 6.0 [6.0; 7.0] on the 16th day; The UKU Side Effect Rating Scale: 6.0 [4.0; 6.0] vs 9.0 [9.0; 10.0] (P<0.001) on the 9th day and 5.0 [1.0; 9.0] vs 19.0 [18.0; 22.0] on the 16th day). Conclusion This study demonstrated the lower efficacy and safety of fluvoxamine in patients with depressive disorder and comorbid alcohol use disorders with GA genotype in CYP2D6 1846G>A polymorphic marker.

Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to validate the analytical performance of a combinatorial pharmacogenomics test designed to aid in the appropriate medication selection for neuropsychiatric conditions. Materials & methods: Genomic DNA was isolated from buccal swabs. Twelve genes (65 variants/alleles) associated with psychotropic medication metabolism, side effects, and mechanisms of actions were evaluated by bead array, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and/or capillary electrophoresis methods (GeneSight Psychotropic, Assurex Health, Inc.). Results: The combinatorial pharmacogenomics test has a dynamic range of 2.5–20 ng/μl of input genomic DNA, with comparable performance for all assays included in the test. Both the precision and accuracy of the test were >99.9%, with individual gene components between 99.4 and 100%. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that the combinatorial pharmacogenomics test is robust and reproducible, making it suitable for clinical use.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although the reduced function of the cytochrome P450 2D6*10 (CYP2D6*10) allele is common among Asian populations, existing evidence does not support paroxetine therapy adjustments for patients who have the CYP2D6*10 allele. In this study, we attempted to evaluate the degree of the impact of different CYP2D6 genotypes on the pharmacokinetic (PK) variability of paroxetine in a Japanese population using a population PK approach. METHODS This retrospective study included 179 Japanese patients with major depressive disorder who were being treated with paroxetine. CYP2D6*1, *2, *5, *10, and *41 polymorphisms were observed. A total of 306 steady-state concentrations for paroxetine were collected from the patients. A nonlinear mixed-effects model identified the apparent Michaelis-Menten constant (Km) and the maximum velocity (Vmax) of paroxetine; the covariates included CYP2D6 genotypes, patient age, body weight, sex, and daily paroxetine dose. RESULTS The allele frequencies of CYP2D6*1, *2, *5, *10, and *41 were 39.4, 14.5, 4.5, 41.1, and 0.6%, respectively. There was no poor metabolizer who had two nonfunctional CYP2D6*5 alleles. A one-compartment model showed that the apparent Km value was decreased by 20.6% in patients with the CYP2D6*10/*10 genotype in comparison with the other CYP2D6 genotypes. Female sex also influenced the apparent Km values. No PK parameters were affected by the presence of one CYP2D6*5 allele. CONCLUSION Unexpectedly, elimination was accelerated in individuals with the CYP2D6*10/*10 genotype. Our results show that the presence of one CYP2D6*5 allele or that of any CYP2D6*10 allele may have no major effect on paroxetine PKs in the steady state.

Abstract
Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are a major public health concern and cause significant patient morbidity and mortality. Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genetic polymorphisms affect an individual's response to pharmacotherapy at the level of a whole genome. This article updates our knowledge on how genetic polymorphisms of important genes alter the risk of ADR occurrence after an extensive literature search. To date, at least 244 pharmacogenes identified have been associated with ADRs of 176 clinically used drugs based on PharmGKB. At least 28 genes associated with the risk of ADRs have been listed by the Food and Drug Administration as pharmacogenomic biomarkers. With the availability of affordable and reliable testing tools, pharmacogenomics looks promising to predict, reduce, and minimize ADRs in selected populations.

Abstract
The pharmacogenetics of antidepressants has been not only a challenging but also frustrating research field since its birth in the 1990s. Indeed, great expectations followed the first evidence of familiar aggregation of antidepressant response. Despite the progress from candidate gene studies to genome-wide association studies (GWAS), results fell out the expectations and they were often inconsistent. Anyway, the cumulative evidence supports the involvement of some genes and molecular pathways in antidepressant efficacy. The best single genes are SLC6A4, HTR2A, BDNF, GNB3, FKBP5, ABCB1, and cytochrome P450 genes (CYP2D6 and CYP2C19). Molecular pathways involved in inflammation and neuroplasticity show the greatest support. The first studies evaluating benefits of genotype-guided antidepressant treatments provided encouraging results and confirmed the relevance of SLC6A4, HTR2A, ABCB1, and cytochrome P450 genes. Further progress in genotyping and data analysis would allow to move forward and complete the understanding of antidepressant pharmacogenetics and its translation into clinical applications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The aim of this article is to review the field of clinically relevant pharmacogenetic effects of cytochrome P450 polymorphisms on metabolism, kinetics, and action of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). AREAS COVERED The relevant literature in humans on the implications of genetic variation on SSRI drug exposure, drug safety, and efficacy was systematically evaluated. There is a large amount of evidence on the influences of CYP polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics of SSRIs. Regulatory agencies have issued warnings or advice considering dose adjustments in the presence of affected metabolic phenotypes for several SSRIs. Evidence-based dose adjustments for drugs dependent on CYP genotype are available to clinicians. However, few data on the relationship between genetically determined elevated plasma concentrations of SSRIs and specific side effects or therapeutic failure are currently available. EXPERT OPINION Genetic polymorphisms in CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 exert large influences on the individual exposure to SSRIs, leading to the aim to achieve similar concentration time courses in different metabolizer phenotypes. The implementation of a stratified approach to medication with SSRIs in different metabolic phenotypes on a rational basis will require new studies assessing the association between clinical outcomes (such as adverse reactions) and genetically determined elevated plasma concentrations.

Abstract
It has been suggested that the reduced function allele with reduced cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 activity, CYP2D6*10, is associated with the interindividual differences in the plasma paroxetine concentrations, but there is no data presently available regarding the influence of the CYP2D6*10 polymorphism on the pharmacokinetic parameters, eg, Michaelis–Menten constant (Km) and maximum velocity (Vmax), in Asian populations. The present study investigated the effects of the CYP2D6 polymorphisms, including CYP2D6*10, on the pharmacokinetic parameters of paroxetine in Japanese patients with major depressive disorders. This retrospective study included 15 Japanese patients with major depressive disorders (four males and eleven females) who were treated with paroxetine. The CYP2D6*2, CYP2D6*4, CYP2D6*5, CYP2D6*10, CYP2D6*18, CYP2D6*39, and CYP2D6*41 polymorphisms were evaluated. A total of 56 blood samples were collected from the patients. The Km and Vmax values of paroxetine were estimated for each patient. The allele frequencies of CYP2D6*2, CYP2D6*4, CYP2D6*5, CYP2D6*10, CYP2D6*18, CYP2D6*39, and CYP2D6*41 were 6.7%, 0%, 10.0%, 56.7%, 0%, 26.7%, and 0%, respectively. The mean values of Km and Vmax were 50.5±68.4 ng/mL and 50.6±18.8 mg/day, respectively. Both the Km and Vmax values were significantly smaller in CYP2D6*10 allele carriers than in the noncarriers (24.2±18.3 ng/mL versus 122.5±106.3 ng/mL, P=0.008; 44.2±16.1 mg/day versus 68.3±15.0 mg/day, P=0.022, respectively). This is the first study to demonstrate that the CYP2D6*10 polymorphism could affect the nonlinear pharmacokinetic parameter estimates of paroxetine in Asian populations. The findings of this study suggest that the CYP2D6*10 polymorphism may be associated with the smaller values of both the Km and Vmax in Japanese patients with major depressive disorders, and these results need to be confirmed in further investigations with a larger number of patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aims of the present study were to analyze the association between discontinuation of paroxetine (PAX) and the genetic variants of the polymorphism in the serotonin transporter gene-linked polymorphic region (5-HTTLPR) in Japanese patients with panic disorder (PD) and major depressive disorder (MDD). METHODS The 5-HTTLPR genotype was determined by polymerase chain reaction method. PAX plasma concentration was measured by high-performance liquid chromatography to confirm adherence. RESULTS When comparing between the PD and MDD patients with the chi-square test and Fisher's exact test, the PD patients had a significant and higher discontinuation rate due to non-adherence than did the MDD patients (13.5% [7/52] versus 0% [0/88], respectively; P<0.001). MDD patients had a significant and higher discontinuation rate due to untraceability than PD patients (12.5% [11/88] versus 1.9% [1/52]; P=0.032). Multilogistic regression revealed a tendency for the long/short and short/short genotypes to affect discontinuation due to adverse effects in PD patients (25.0% versus 6.3%, respectively; P=0.054). CONCLUSION The results indicate that the 5-HTTLPR genotype might contribute to the discontinuation of initial PAX treatment due to adverse effects in PD patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymatic activity, which is influenced by CYP genetic polymorphism, is known to affect the inter-individual variation in the efficacy and tolerability of antidepressants in major depressive disorder (MDD). Escitalopram is metabolized by CYP2D6, and recent studies have reported a correlation between clinical outcomes and CYP2D6 genetic polymorphism. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the CYP2D6 P34S polymorphism (C188T, rs1065852) and the efficacy of escitalopram treatment in Korean patients with MDD. METHODS A total of 94 patients diagnosed with MDD were recruited for the study and their symptoms were evaluated using the 21-item Hamilton Depression Rating scale (HAMD-21). The association between the CYP2D6 P34S polymorphism and the clinical outcomes (remission and response) was investigated after 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks of escitalopram treatment using multiple logistic regression analysis and χ(2) test. RESULTS The proportion of P allele carriers (PP, PS) in remission status was greater than that of S allele homozygotes (SS) after 8 and 12 weeks of escitalopram treatment. Similarly, P allele carriers exhibited a greater treatment response after 8 and 12 weeks of escitalopram treatment than S allele homozygotes. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that the P allele of the CYP2D6 P34S polymorphism is a favorable factor in escitalopram treatment for MDD, and that the CYP2D6 P34S polymorphism may be a good genetic marker for predicting escitalopram treatment outcomes.

Abstract
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is an emergent cause of personal and socio-economic burden, both for the high prevalence of the disorder and the unsatisfying response rate of the available antidepressant treatments. No reliable predictor of treatment efficacy and tolerance in the single patient is available, thus drug choice is based on a trial and error principle with poor clinical efficiency. Among modulators of treatment outcome, genetic polymorphisms are thought to explain a significant share of the inter-individual variability. The present review collected the main pharmacogenetic findings primarily about antidepressant response and secondly about antidepressant induced side effects, and discussed the main strengths and limits of both candidate and genome-wide association studies and the most promising methodological opportunities and challenges of the field. Despite clinical applications of antidepressant pharmacogenetics are not available yet, previous findings suggest that genotyping may be applied in the clinical practice. In order to reach this objective, further rigorous pharmacogenetic studies (adequate sample size, study of better defined clinical subtypes of MDD, adequate covering of the genetic variability), their combination with the results obtained through complementary methodologies (e.g., pathway analysis, epigenetics, transcriptomics, and proteomics), and finally cost-effectiveness trials are required.

Abstract
Numerous studies have reported on pharmacogenetics of antidepressant response in depression. In contrast, little is known of response predictors in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), a disorder with among the lowest proportion of responders to medication (40-60%). Our study is the largest investigation to date (N=184) of treatment response and side effects to antidepressants in OCD based on metabolizer status for CYP2D6 and CYP2C19. We observed significantly more failed medication trials in CYP2D6 non-extensive compared with extensive metabolizers (P=0.007). CYP2D6 metabolizer status was associated with side effects to venlafaxine (P=0.022). There were nonsignificant trends for association of CYP2D6 metabolizer status with response to fluoxetine (P=0.056) and of CYP2C19 metabolizer status with response to sertraline (P=0.064). Our study is the first to indicate that CYP genes may have a role in antidepressant response in OCD. More research is required for a future clinical application of genetic testing, which could lead to improved treatment outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are the major enzymes responsible for Phase I reactions in the metabolism of several substances, including antidepressant medications. Thus, it has been hypothesized that variants in the CYP network may influence antidepressant efficacy and safety. Nonetheless, data on this field are still contradictory. The authors aim to give an overview of the published studies analyzing the influence of CYP highly polymorphic loci on antidepressant treatment in order to translate the acquired knowledge to a clinical level. AREAS COVERED The authors collected and compared experimental works and reviews published from the 1980s to the present and included in the Medline database. The included studies pertain to the effects of CYP gene polymorphisms on antidepressant pharmacokinetic parameters and clinical outcomes (response and drug-related adverse effects), with a focus on applications in clinical practice. The authors focused mainly on in vivo studies in humans (patients or healthy volunteers). EXPERT OPINION Great variability in antidepressant metabolism among individuals has been demonstrated. Thus, with the current interest in individualized medicine, several genetic tests to detect CYP variants have been produced. They provide a potentially useful way to anticipate some clinical outcomes of antidepressant treatment, although they will only be extensively used in clinical practice if precise and specific treatment options and guidelines based on genetic tests can be provided.

Abstract
The study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of long-acting injectable risperidone (LAR) in Asian patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders. Twenty-five patients enrolled in this 6-month open labelled study. They were switched from their current antipsychotic to LAR without a prior oral risperidone run-in phase. Efficacy was assessed by the positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) and clinical global impression (CGI) scales. Extra-pyramidal side effects (EPSE) was assessed using the Simpson Angus Scale (SAS), and weight and plasma levels of fasting blood glucose, lipids and prolactin were measured. Baseline and last visits differences were tested by paired t-test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test; ratings measured over time were analysed using repeated measures ANOVA. Participants' mean age was 30.3 (+/-6.6) years. Principal reason for switching to LAR was non-compliance (40.0%). Thirteen (52%) patients completed the trial. Over 6 months, there were significant reductions in total PANSS (p = 0.008) and CGI (p = 0.001) scores. There were significant increases in weight (p < 0.001), levels of plasma cholesterol and fasting glucose. LAR was effective in improving symptom severity within the first month of starting treatment. However, significant increases in weight and plasma levels of fasting glucose and cholesterol raise concern about metabolic side effects.

Abstract
Paroxetine discontinuation symptoms can at times be severe enough to reduce the quality of life. However, it is currently not possible to predict the occurrence of discontinuation syndrome before the initiation or discontinuation of paroxetine treatment. In this study, we investigated the effects of genetic polymorphisms in the serotonin 1A, 2A, 2C, 3A, and 3B receptor, the serotonin transporter, and the cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) genes on the occurrence of paroxetine discontinuation syndrome. A consecutive series of 56 Japanese patients who had a diagnosis of major depressive or anxiety disorder according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition, were treated with paroxetine. Paroxetine discontinuation syndrome was found in 35.7% of the patients by direct interview. Patients who stopped taking paroxetine abruptly experienced paroxetine discontinuation syndrome significantly more often than patients who had a tapering off of the dosage of medication. Patients who had the -1019C allele experienced paroxetine discontinuation syndrome more frequently than patients who had the -1019G homozygote (nominal P = 0.0423) of the serotonin 1A receptor gene. However, this result did not remain significant after the Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons. The findings suggest that the abrupt stoppage of medication is a major risk factor for the occurrence of paroxetine discontinuation syndrome and that C(-1019)G polymorphism of the serotonin 1A receptor gene may be related to the occurrence of the syndrome.

Abstract
Paroxetine is characterized by large interindividual pharmacokinetic variability and heterogeneous response patterns. The present study investigates plasma concentration and therapeutic response to paroxetine for the influence of age, sex, and CYP2D6 and ABCB1 polymorphisms, the latter gene encoding for the permeability glycoprotein. Genotyping for CYP2D6 (alleles *3, *4, *5, *6, and *xN) and ABCB1 polymorphisms (61A>G, 2677G>T, and 3435C>T) was performed in 71 depressed patients who started 20 mg paroxetine per day and had plasma concentration measured after 2 weeks at a fixed dose. A dose increase to 30 mg per day was possible starting at week 2. For 63 patients, severity of depression (Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale) was assessed at weeks 0, 2, and 4 and every 2 weeks thereafter until discontinuation. Persistent response was defined as 50% improvement from baseline score sustained from the first occurrence to study end point. Paroxetine concentration significantly differed between female and male patients (median, 28 versus 16 ng/mL; P = 0.001). Differences were not significant between CYP2D6 heterozygous and homozygous extensive metabolizers (median, 27 versus 22 ng/mL; P = 0.074) and between ABCB1 genotypes (P > 0.10). When considered in a multivariate model, CYP2D6 heterozygous extensive metabolizer phenotype (P = 0.062) and female gender (P = 0.001) predicted 1.3-fold and 1.6-fold higher paroxetine concentration, respectively, but fraction of explained variability was modest (21%). Frequency of persistent response at study end point did not significantly differ according to CYP2D6 heterozygous extensive metabolizer versus homozygous extensive metabolizer phenotype and ABCB1 polymorphisms in univariate analyses. After adjusting for age, sex, paroxetine concentration at week 2, and daily dose at study end point, ABCB1 genotype contributed to improving the model significantly for 61A>G (P = 0.043), but not 2677G>T (P = 0.068) and 3435C>T (P = 0.11). None of two poor metabolizers and four ultrarapid metabolizers showed persistent response to paroxetine. The hypothesis that permeability glycoprotein activity might be a relevant predictor of therapeutic response deserves to be further investigated while controlling for pharmacokinetic variability.

Abstract
Early improvement of depression severity is considered an important therapeutic goal, predictive of later remission. The present study aimed at testing the hypothesis that plasma concentration might influence the time course of response to paroxetine. Eighty-four patients with a severe depressive episode started paroxetine 20 mg/day, with a possible dose adjustment to 30 mg/day after 2 weeks. Severity of depression (Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale) was assessed at weeks 0, 2 and 4 for all patients, and every 2 weeks thereafter until discontinuation. Median duration on paroxetine was 6 weeks (range 4-18 weeks). Plasma concentration was measured at steady-state after 2 weeks at 20 mg/day. In a first stage, pattern analysis led to distinguish patients with non-response, non-persistent response, early persistent response (obtained at week 2) and delayed persistent response (week 4 or later). Comparison of patients with (n=29, 34.5%) and without persistent response (n=55, 65.5%) did not reveal any significant difference, whereas focus on patients with persistent response indicated that shorter time to response was significantly associated with shorter duration of current episode (r(S)=0.54, p=0.003) and higher plasma level (r(S)=-0.47, p=0.011). In a second stage, a sigmoid mixed effects model was developed that adequately fitted depression severity versus time profiles among patients with persistent response (n=157 data for 29 patients). Estimated median time to response was 3.2 weeks (range 0.9-6.6). Higher paroxetine concentration, younger age and shorter episode duration were confirmed as significant determinants of a shorter time to response (likelihood ratio tests, p<0.005). The present study supports the hypothesis that higher paroxetine concentration might contribute to hasten relief of depressive symptoms in severely depressed patients.

Abstract
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors are thought to interact with serotonergic neurons and be effective for treatment of panic disorder. In the present study, the authors investigated an association between plasma concentrations of paroxetine in patients with panic disorder and clinical response to initial treatment with paroxetine. Subjects were 21 unrelated Japanese patients who fulfilled DSM-IV-TR criteria for a diagnosis of panic disorder (6 males, 15 females, mean age 35.9 +/- 11.3 years). Subjects were administered 10 mg/day of paroxetine for 2 weeks as initial treatment. Improvement of the symptoms of the disorder was assessed with the Panic and Agoraphobia Scale (PAS). In the range of plasma levels >20 ng/mL, none of the subjects showed the reduction ratio in PAS score >0.2. The subjects whose plasma concentrations of paroxetine were less than 20 ng/mL had a significantly higher mean reduction ratio in PAS score than the subjects whose plasma concentrations of paroxetine were >20 ng/mL. Multiple regression analysis showed that the plasma concentration of paroxetine was the only significant factor and accounted for 28.0% of the variability in the reduction ratio of PAS score of the subjects. The final model of correlation was: reduction ratio in PAS score = 0.423 - 0.009 x (plasma concentrations of paroxetine) (R = 0.529, P = 0.014, coefficient of determination (R2) = 0.280). Assuming that the reduction ratio in PAS score was 0.2 in the equation above, plasma concentration of paroxetine is calculated to be about 25 ng/mL, which is suggested to be the upper end of the therapeutic window for the initial phase of the treatment with paroxetine for panic disorder.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Paroxetine is believed to be a substrate of CYP2D6. However, no information was available indicating drug interaction between paroxetine and inhibitors of CYP2D6. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of terbinafine, a potent inhibitor of CYP2D6, on pharmacokinetics of paroxetine. METHODS Two 6-day courses of either a daily 150-mg of terbinafine or a placebo, with at least a 4-week washout period, were conducted. Twelve volunteers took a single oral 20-mg dose of paroxetine on day 6 of both courses. Plasma concentrations of paroxetine were monitored up to 48 h after dosing. RESULTS Compared with the placebo, terbinafine treatment significantly increased the peak plasma concentration (C(max)) of paroxetine, by 1.9-fold (6.4 +/- 2.4 versus 12.1 +/- 2.9 ng/ml, p < 0.001), and the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to 48 h [AUC (0-48)] of paroxetine by 2.5-fold (127 +/- 67 vs 318 +/- 102 ng/ml, p < 0.001). Elimination half-life differed significantly (15.3 +/- 2.4 vs 22.7 +/- 8.8 h, p < 0.05), although the magnitude of alteration (1.4-fold) was smaller than C(max )or AUC. CONCLUSION The present study demonstrated that the metabolism of paroxetine after a single oral dose was inhibited by terbinafine, suggesting that inhibition of CYP2D6 activity may lead to a change in the pharmacokinetics of paroxetine. However, further study is required to confirm this phenomenon at steady state.
