Abstract
Statins, also known as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, are one of the most potently prescribed and thoroughly researched medications, predominantly utilized for managing cardiovascular diseases by modulating serum cholesterol levels. Despite the well-documented efficacy of statins in reducing overall mortality via attenuating the risk of cardiovascular diseases, notable interindividual variability in therapeutic responses persists as such variability could compromise the lipid-lowering efficacy of the drug, potentially increasing susceptibility to adverse effects or attenuating therapeutic outcomes.This phenomenon has catalysed a growing interest in the scientific community to explore common genetic polymorphisms within genes that encode for pivotal enzymes within the pharmacokinetic pathways of statins. In our review, we focus to provide insight into potentially clinically relevant polymorphisms associated with statins' pharmacokinetic participants and assess their consequent implications on modulating the therapeutic outcomes of statins among distinct genetic carrier.

The Risk of Neuropsychiatric Adverse Events With Use of Leukotriene Receptor Antagonists in Patients With Asthma: Analysis of Korea's National Health Insurance Sharing Service Database. THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY. IN PRACTICE 2023; 11:3690-3699.e7. [PMID: 37660732 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2023.08.037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2022] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Montelukast, a selective leukotriene receptor antagonist, is a commonly prescribed allergy medication but its potential association with neuropsychiatric adverse events is concerning. OBJECTIVE To analyze Korea's National Health Insurance System claims records to identify the risk of neuropsychiatric adverse events in patients with asthma treated with montelukast. METHODS This retrospective population-based study analyzed the National Health Insurance claims records of the entire Korean population between 2008 and 2015. We compared the risk of neuropsychiatric adverse events among patients with asthma using inhaled corticosteroids and/or long-acting β2-agonists with montelukast or pranlukast and those not using leukotriene receptor antagonists (control group). RESULTS There was no increased risk of the composite outcome of all measured neuropsychiatric adverse events in patients with asthma who were prescribed montelukast or pranlukast compared with those who were not. However, montelukast use was associated with an increased risk of hallucinations (inverse probability treatment weighting hazard ratio, 1.45; 95% CI, 1.07-1.96) and attention problems (inverse probability treatment weighting hazard ratio, 1.24; 95% CI, 1.01-1.52). Significant negative hazards for disorientation, anxiety, stress reactions, and somatic symptoms were observed in the montelukast group. When grouped by sex, the risk of hallucinations and attention problems was higher in men prescribed montelukast compared with the controls. CONCLUSIONS We did not observe an increase in all neuropsychiatric adverse events in the leukotriene receptor antagonist-treated group; however, an increased risk of hallucinations and attention problems was observed in those taking montelukast, regardless of the medication administration period.

Organic anion-transporting polypeptide 2B1 knockout and humanized mice; insights into the handling of bilirubin and drugs. Pharmacol Res 2023; 190:106724. [PMID: 36907287 DOI: 10.1016/j.phrs.2023.106724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Revised: 02/25/2023] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/12/2023]
Abstract
Organic anion transporting polypeptide 2B1 (OATP2B1/SLCO2B1) facilitates uptake transport of structurally diverse endogenous and exogenous compounds. To investigate the roles of OATP2B1 in physiology and pharmacology, we established and characterized Oatp2b1 knockout (single Slco2b1-/- and combination Slco1a/1b/2b1-/-) and humanized hepatic and intestinal OATP2B1 transgenic mouse models. While viable and fertile, these strains exhibited a modestly increased body weight. In males, unconjugated bilirubin levels were markedly reduced in Slco2b1-/- compared to wild-type mice, whereas bilirubin monoglucuronide levels were modestly increased in Slco1a/1b/2b1-/- compared to Slco1a/1b-/- mice. Single Slco2b1-/- mice showed no significant changes in oral pharmacokinetics of several tested drugs. However, markedly higher or lower plasma exposure of pravastatin and the erlotinib metabolite OSI-420, respectively, were found in Slco1a/1b/2b1-/- compared to Slco1a/1b-/- mice, while oral rosuvastatin and fluvastatin behaved similarly between the strains. In males, humanized OATP2B1 strains showed lower conjugated and unconjugated bilirubin levels than control Slco1a/1b/2b1-deficient mice. Moreover, hepatic expression of human OATP2B1 partially or completely rescued the impaired hepatic uptake of OSI-420, rosuvastatin, pravastatin, and fluvastatin in Slco1a/1b/2b1-/- mice, establishing an important role in hepatic uptake. Expression of human OATP2B1 in the intestine was basolateral and markedly reduced the oral availability of rosuvastatin and pravastatin, but not of OSI-420 and fluvastatin. Neither lack of Oatp2b1, nor overexpression of human OATP2B1 had any effect on fexofenadine oral pharmacokinetics. While these mouse models still have limitations for human translation, with additional work we expect they will provide powerful tools to further understand the physiological and pharmacological roles of OATP2B1.

The Effect of Tobacco Use on the Expression of Placental Transporters in Alaska Native Women. Clin Pharmacol Ther 2023; 113:634-642.

Abstract
Prenatal tobacco use among Alaska Native (AN) women has decreased substantially over the past two decades. Previous research suggests that providing AN women with feedback regarding fetal exposure to tobacco may further promote cessation. Transporters in the placenta regulate fetal exposure to nutrients and xenobiotics, including compounds associated with tobacco use. We examined whether prenatal tobacco use impacts transporter expression in the placenta, and whether this is influenced by fetal sex, degree of tobacco exposure, or transporter genotype. At delivery, we obtained placental samples from AN research participants who smoked cigarettes, used commercial chew or iqmik (oral tobacco), or did not use tobacco during pregnancy. Transporter expression was evaluated using qRT-PCR and Western blotting and tested for correlations between transcript levels and urinary biomarkers of tobacco use. The impact of BCRP/ABCG2 and OATP2B1/SLCO2B1 genotypes on protein expression was also examined. Oral tobacco use was associated with decreased P-gp and increased MRP1, MRP3, LAT1, and PMAT mRNA expression. Transcript levels of multiple transporters significantly correlated with tobacco biomarkers in maternal and fetal urine. In women carrying male fetuses, both smoking and oral tobacco were associated with decreased P-gp. Oral tobacco was also associated with decreased LAT1 in women carrying female fetuses. BCRP and OATP2B1 genotypes did not appear to impact protein expression. In conclusion, prenatal tobacco use is associated with altered expression of multiple placental transporters which differs by fetal sex. As transcript levels of multiple transporters were significantly correlated with tobacco use biomarkers, eliminating prenatal tobacco use should alleviate these changes.

Abstract
The liver plays a central role in the pharmacokinetics of drugs through drug metabolizing enzymes and transporters. Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) causes disease-specific alterations to the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) processes, including a decrease in protein expression of basolateral uptake transporters, an increase in efflux transporters, and modifications to enzyme activity. This can result in increased drug exposure and adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Our goal was to predict drugs that pose increased risks for ADRs in NASH patients. Bibliographic research identified 71 drugs with reported ADRs in patients with liver disease, mainly non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), 54 of which are known substrates of transporters and/or metabolizing enzymes. Since NASH is the progressive form of NAFLD but is most frequently undiagnosed, we identified other drugs at risk based on NASH-specific alterations to ADME processes. Here, we present another list of 71 drugs at risk of pharmacokinetic disruption in NASH, based on their transport and/or metabolism processes. It encompasses drugs from various pharmacological classes for which ADRs may occur when used in NASH patients, especially when eliminated through multiple pathways altered by the disease. Therefore, these results may inform clinicians regarding the selection of drugs for use in NASH patients.

Abstract
Asthma is a chronic disease of the airways characterized by inflammation, tightened muscles, and thickened airway walls leading to symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest tightness, and cough in patients. The increased risk of asthma in children of asthmatics parents supports the existence of genetic factors involved in the pathogenesis of this disease. Genome-wide association studies have discovered several single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with asthma. These polymorphisms occur within several genes and can contribute to different asthma phenotypes, affect disease severity, and clinical response to different therapies. The complexity in the etiology of asthma also results from interactions between environmental and genetic factors. Environmental exposures have been shown to increase the prevalence of asthma in individuals who are genetically susceptible. This review summarizes what is currently known about the genetics of asthma in relation to risk, response to common treatments, and gene-environmental interactions.

Abstract
Increasing environmental distress is associated with a growing asthma incidence; no treatments are available but montelukast (MTK)—an antagonist of the cysteinyl leukotrienes receptor 1—is widely used in the management of symptoms among adults and children. Recently, new molecular targets have been identified and MTK has been proposed for repurposing in other therapeutic applications, with several ongoing clinical trials. The proposed applications include neuroinflammation control, which could be explored in some neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases (AD and PD). However, this drug has been associated with an increasing number of reported neuropsychiatric adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Besides, and despite being on the market since 1998, MTK metabolism is still poorly understood and the mechanisms underlying neuropsychiatric ADRs remain unknown. We review the role of MTK as a modulator of leukotriene pathways and systematize the current knowledge about MTK metabolism. Known toxic effects of MTK are discussed, and repurposing applications are presented comprehensively, with a focus on AD and PD.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetics research on leukotriene modifiers (LTMs) for asthma has been developing rapidly, although pharmacogenetic testing for LTMs is not yet used in clinical practice. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis on the impact of pharmacogenomics on LTMs response. Studies published until May 2022 were searched using PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases. Pharmacogenomics/genetics studies of patients with asthma using LTMs with or without other anti-asthmatic drugs were included. Statistical tests of the meta-analysis were performed with Review Manager (Revman, version 5.4, The Cochrane Collaboration, Copenhagen, Denmark) and R language and environment for statistical computing (version 4.1.0 for Windows, R Core Team, Vienna, Austria) software. In total, 31 studies with 8084 participants were included in the systematic review and five studies were also used to perform the meta-analysis. Two included studies were genome-wide association studies (GWAS), which showed different results. Furthermore, none of the SNPs investigated in candidate gene studies were identified in GWAS. In candidate gene studies, the most widely studied SNPs were ALOX5 (tandem repeats of the Sp1-binding domain and rs2115819), LTC4S-444A/C (rs730012), and SLCO2B1 (rs12422149), with relatively inconsistent conclusions. LTC4S-444A/C polymorphism did not show a significant effect in our meta-analysis (AA vs. AC (or AC + CC): −0.06, 95%CI: −0.16 to 0.05, p = 0.31). AA homozygotes had smaller improvements in parameters pertaining to lung functions (−0.14, 95%CI: −0.23 to −0.05, p = 0.002) in a subgroup of patients with non-selective CysLT receptor antagonists and patients without inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) (−0.11, 95%CI: −0.14 to −0.08, p < 0.00001), but not in other subgroups. Variability exists in the pharmacogenomics of LTMs treatment response. Our meta-analysis and systematic review found that LTC4S-444A/C may influence the treatment response of patients taking non-selective CysLT receptor antagonists for asthma, and patients taking LTMs not in combination with ICS for asthma. Future studies are needed to validate the pharmacogenomic influence on LTMs response.

Abstract
Organic anion transport polypeptide 2B1 (OATP2B1), as an uptake transporter, is involved in the transport of many related substrate drugs and endogenous substances in the lungs. A large amount of data shows that cigarette smoke plays an important role in the occurrence and development of lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma and bronchitis. However, the effect of cigarette smoke combined with lipopolysaccharide-induced pulmonary inflammation on the expression of OATP2B1 is not clear. In this study, we used cigarette smoke combined with lipopolysaccharide to establish a lung inflammation model in vivo and in vitro to explore the effect of inflammation on the expression of OATP2B1. Our study found that cigarette smoke combined with lipopolysaccharide-induced pulmonary inflammation upregulated the mRNA and protein expression of OATP2B1 and related inflammatory factors, and the expression level of related proteins was higher with the aggravation of inflammation. The experimental results of animals in vivo were consistent with those of cells in vitro. In summary, these findings provide a model and basis for a follow-up study of the mechanism of OATP2B1 in pulmonary inflammation.

Abstract
Asthma is a respiratory condition often stemming from childhood, characterized by difficulty breathing and/or chest tightness. Current treatment options for both adults and children include beta-2 agonists, inhaled corticosteroids (ICS), and leukotriene modifiers (LTM). Despite recommendations by the Global Initiative for Asthma, a substantial number of patients are unresponsive to treatment and unable to control symptoms. Pharmacogenomics have increasingly become the front line of precision medicine, especially with the recent use of candidate gene and genome- wide association studies (GWAS). Screening patients preemptively could likely decrease adverse events and therapeutic failure. However, research in asthma, specifically in pediatrics, has been low. Although numerous adult trials have evaluated the impact of pharmacogenomics and treatment response, the lack of evidence in children has hindered progress towards clinical application. This review aims to discuss the impact of genetic variability and response to asthmatic medications in the pediatric population.

Abstract
Non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and other eicosanoid pathway modifiers are among the most ubiquitously used medications in the general population. Their broad anti‐inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic effects are applied against symptoms of respiratory infections, including SARS‐CoV‐2, as well as in other acute and chronic inflammatory diseases that often coexist with allergy and asthma. However, the current pandemic of COVID‐19 also revealed the gaps in our understanding of their mechanism of action, selectivity, and interactions not only during viral infections and inflammation, but also in asthma exacerbations, uncontrolled allergic inflammation, and NSAIDs‐exacerbated respiratory disease (NERD). In this context, the consensus report summarizes currently available knowledge, novel discoveries, and controversies regarding the use of NSAIDs in COVID‐19, and the role of NSAIDs in asthma and viral asthma exacerbations. We also describe here novel mechanisms of action of leukotriene receptor antagonists (LTRAs), outline how to predict responses to LTRA therapy and discuss a potential role of LTRA therapy in COVID‐19 treatment. Moreover, we discuss interactions of novel T2 biologicals and other eicosanoid pathway modifiers on the horizon, such as prostaglandin D2 antagonists and cannabinoids, with eicosanoid pathways, in context of viral infections and exacerbations of asthma and allergic diseases. Finally, we identify and summarize the major knowledge gaps and unmet needs in current eicosanoid research.

Abstract
Drug-repurposing has been instrumental to identify drugs preventing SARS-CoV-2 replication or attenuating the disease course of COVID-19. Here, we identify through structure-based drug-repurposing a dual-purpose inhibitor of SARS-CoV-2 infection and of IL-6 production by immune cells. We created a computational structure model of the receptor binding domain (RBD) of the SARS-CoV-2 spike 1 protein, and used this model for insilico screening against a library of 6171 molecularly defined binding-sites from drug molecules. Molecular dynamics simulation of candidate molecules with high RBD binding-scores in docking analysis predicted montelukast, an antagonist of the cysteinyl-leukotriene-receptor, to disturb the RBD structure, and infection experiments demonstrated inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 infection, although montelukast binding was outside the ACE2-binding site. Molecular dynamics simulation of SARS-CoV-2 variant RBDs correctly predicted interference of montelukast with infection by the beta but not the more infectious alpha variant. With distinct binding sites for RBD and the leukotriene receptor, montelukast also prevented SARS-CoV-2-induced IL-6 release from immune cells. The inhibition of SARS-CoV-2 infection through a molecule binding distal to the ACE-binding site of the RBD points towards an allosteric mechanism that is not conserved in the more infectious alpha and delta SARS-CoV-2 variants.

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.

World Allergy Organ J 2021; 14:100594. [PMID: 34659626 PMCID: PMC8498094 DOI: 10.1016/j.waojou.2021.100594] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2021] [Revised: 09/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/14/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND There are limited real-world studies on the differences in leukotriene receptor antagonists (LTRA), H1-antihistamines (H1-AH), and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) associated neuropsychiatric events. In this study, we aimed to analyze the characteristics of drug associated neuropsychiatric events, and compare the differences among different drug categories. METHODS Disproportionality analysis and Bayesian analysis were used in data mining to identify suspected neuropsychiatric events associated with LTRA, H1-AH, and ICS based on the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) from January 2004 to September 2020. Demographic information, time interval to onset, and death rates of LTRA, H1-AH, and ICS-associated neuropsychiatric events were also analyzed. RESULTS A total of 9475 neuropsychiatric events were identified. The number of neuropsychiatric events related to LTRA, H1-AH, and ICS were 5201 (54.89%), 3226 (34.05%), and 1048 (11.06%), respectively. LTRA related neuropsychiatric events were more common in patients aged 4-6 years (18.66%). H1-AH and ICS related neuropsychiatric events were more common in patients aged 18-44 years (29.92%) and older than 65 years (30.60%), respectively. Montelukast was highly associated with neuropsychiatric events, with a high reporting odds ratio (ROR). Most neuropsychiatric symptoms occurred within the first 10 days after drug initiation (78.63% for LTRA, 91.39% for H1-AH, and 84.07% for ICS). The death rate due to neuropsychiatric events of first generation H1-AH was significantly higher than that of LTRA and ICS (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS LTRA associated neuropsychiatric events reported in FAERS were most frequent in 4 to 6-year-old children. Most reported cases occurred within the first 10 days after drug initiation. The second generation H1-AH was relatively safe for neuropsychiatric events compared with the first generation. The fatality rate due to first generation H1-AH associated neuropsychiatric events was higher than that of LTRA and ICS. More attention should be paid to specific patients treated with LTRA and H1-AH.

Abstract
Drug Metabolism Reviews has an impressive track record of providing scientific reviews in the area of xenobiotic biotransformation over 47 years. It has consistently proved to be resourceful to many scientists from pharmaceutical industry, academia, regulatory agencies working in diverse areas including enzymology, pharmacology, pharmacokinetics and toxicology. Over the last 5 years Drug metabolism Reviews has annually published an industry commentary aimed to highlight novel insights and approaches that have made significant impacts on the field of biotransformation (led by Cyrus Khojasteh). We hope to continue this tradition by providing an overview of advances made in the field of drug transporters during 2020. The field of drug transporters is rapidly evolving as they play an essential role in drug absorption, distribution, clearance and elimination. In this review we have selected outstanding drug transporter articles that have significantly contributed to moving forward the field of transporter science with respect to translation and improved understanding of diverse aspects including uptake clearance, clinical biomarkers, induction, proteomics, emerging transporters and tissue targeting.The theme of this review consists of synopsis that summarizes each article followed by our commentary. The objective of this work is not to provide a comprehensive review but rather exemplify novel insights and state-of-the-art highlights of recent research that have advanced our understanding of drug transporters in drug disposition. We are hopeful that this effort will prove useful to the scientific community and as such request feedback, and further extend an invitation to anyone interested in contributing to future reviews.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Very preterm infants are at high risk of developing chronic lung disease, which requires respiratory support and might have long-term sequelae. As lung inflammation plays an important role in pathogenesis, antileukotrienes have been explored in both clinical and animal studies. We aimed to assess the benefits and harms of antileukotrienes for the prevention and treatment of respiratory morbidity and mortality in very preterm newborns. METHODS In this systematic review, we included randomized trials and non-randomized studies in humans and animals reporting the effects of antileukotrienes in very preterm infants or other mammals within 10 days of birth. Our pre-specified primary outcomes were all-cause mortality and any harm, and, for the clinical studies, incidence of chronic lung disease. Included studies underwent risk of bias-assessment and data extraction performed by two authors independently. There were no language restrictions. RESULTS Fifteen studies totally met our inclusion criteria: one randomized trial and four non-randomized studies in humans and 10 animal studies (five in rodents, two in lambs and one in either guinea pigs, rabbits or caprinae). All five clinical studies used montelukast and had a small sample size, ranging from 4 to 77 infants. The randomized trial (n = 60) found no difference in the incidence of chronic lung disease between the groups. Only one clinical study, which enrolled four very preterm infants and had a critical overall risk of bias, reported long-term outcomes. All other studies had unclear or greater overall risk of bias and meta-analyses were therefore deemed unfeasible. Eight of ten animal studies used leukotriene receptor antagonists as antileukotriene (montelukast in three of ten studies) and seven had an experimental study design (i.e. some animals were not exposed to antileukotrienes but no randomization). Three of the ten animal studies assessed different doses. Animal studies found no effect on the outcomes mortality, growth, or lung function related surrogate outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Use of antileukotrienes in very preterm infants to prevent or treat chronic lung disease is not supported by the available evidence. Large randomized trials focusing on outcomes relevant to patients, including long-term outcomes, are needed. Studies should also minimize risk of bias.

Abstract
Models intended to predict intestinal absorption are an essential part of the drug development process. Although many models exist for capturing intestinal absorption, many questions still exist around the applicability of these models to drug types like "beyond rule of 5" (bRo5) and low absorption compounds. This presents a challenge as current models have not been rigorously tested to understand intestinal absorption. Here, we assembled a large, structurally diverse dataset of ∼1000 compounds with known in vitro, preclinical, and human permeability and/or absorption data. In silico (quantitative structure-activity relationship), in vitro (Caco-2), and in vivo (rat) models were statistically evaluated for predictive performance against this human intestinal absorption dataset. We expect this evaluation to serve as a resource for DMPK scientists and medicinal/computational chemists to increase their understanding of permeability and absorption model utility and applications for academia and industry.

Abstract
Predicting drug-drug interactions (DDIs) from in vitro data is made difficult by not knowing concentrations of substrate and inhibitor at the target site. For in vivo targets, this is understandable, since intracellular concentrations can differ from extracellular concentrations. More vexing is that the concentration of the drug at the target for some in vitro assays can also be unknown. This uncertainty has resulted in standard in vitro practices that cannot accurately predict human pharmacokinetics. This case study highlights the impact of drug distribution, both in vitro and in vivo, with the example of the drug interaction potential of montelukast.

Improved Bioavailability of Montelukast through a Novel Oral Mucoadhesive Film in Humans and Mice. Pharmaceutics 2020; 13:E12. [PMID: 33374646 PMCID: PMC7822410 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics13010012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2020] [Revised: 12/16/2020] [Accepted: 12/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
The leukotriene receptor antagonist Montelukast (MTK) is an approved medication for the treatment of asthma and allergic rhinitis. The existing marketed tablet forms of MTK exhibit inconsistent uptake and bioavailability, which partially explains the presence of a significant proportion of MTK low- and non-responders in the population. Besides that, tablets are suboptimal formulations for patients suffering from dysphagia, for example, seen in patients with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, a disease with increasing interest in repurposing of MTK. This, and the need for an improved bioavailability, triggered us to reformulate MTK. Our aim was to develop a mucoadhesive MTK film with good safety and improved pharmacological features, i.e., an improved bioavailability profile in humans as well as in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. We tested dissolution of the MTK mucoadhesive film and assessed pharmacoexposure and kinetics after acute and chronic oral application in mice. Furthermore, we performed a Phase I analysis in humans, which included a comparison with the marketed tablet form as well as a quantitative analysis of the MTK levels in the cerebrospinal fluid. The novel MTK film demonstrated significantly improved bioavailability compared to the marketed tablet in the clinical Phase 1a study. Furthermore, there were measurable amounts of MTK present in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). In mice, MTK was detected in serum and CSF after acute and chronic exposure in a dose-dependent manner. The mucoadhesive film of MTK represents a promising alternative for the tablet delivery. The oral film might lower the non-responder rate in patients with asthma and might be an interesting product for repurposing of MTK in other diseases. As we demonstrate Blood-Brain-Barrier (BBB) penetrance in a preclinical model, as well as in a clinical study, the oral film of MTK might find its use as a therapeutic for acute and chronic neurodegenerative diseases such as dementias and stroke.

Abstract
The emergence and global impact of COVID-19 has focused the scientific and medical community on the pivotal influential role of respiratory viruses as causes of severe pneumonia, on the understanding of the underlying pathomechanisms, and on potential treatment for COVID-19. The latter concentrates on four different strategies: (i) antiviral treatments to limit the entry of the virus into the cell and its propagation, (ii) anti-inflammatory treatment to reduce the impact of COVID-19 associated inflammation and cytokine storm, (iii) treatment using cardiovascular medication to reduce COVID-19 associated thrombosis and vascular damage, and (iv) treatment to reduce the COVID-19 associated lung injury. Ideally, effective COVID-19 treatment should target as many of these mechanisms as possible arguing for the search of common denominators as potential drug targets. Leukotrienes and their receptors qualify as such targets: they are lipid mediators of inflammation and tissue damage and well-established targets in respiratory diseases like asthma. Besides their role in inflammation, they are involved in various other aspects of lung pathologies like vascular damage, thrombosis, and fibrotic response, in brain and retinal damages, and in cardiovascular disease. In consequence, leukotriene receptor antagonists might be potential candidates for COVID-19 therapeutics. This review summarizes the current knowledge on the potential involvement of leukotrienes in COVID-19, and the rational for the use of the leukotriene receptor antagonist montelukast as a COVID-19 therapeutic.

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
Acute asthma exacerbations are primarily due to airway inflammation and remain one of the most frequent reasons for childhood hospitalizations. Although systemic corticosteroids remain the mainstay of therapy because of their anti-inflammatory properties, not all inflammatory pathways are responsive to systemic corticosteroids, necessitating hospital admission for further management. Cysteinyl leukotrienes (LTs) are proinflammatory mediators that play an important role in systemic corticosteroids non-responsiveness. Montelukast is a potent LT-receptor antagonist, and an intravenous preparation caused rapid, sustained improvement of acute asthma exacerbations in adults. We hypothesized that a 30-mg dose of oral montelukast achieves peak plasma concentrations (Cmax ), comparable to the intravenous preparation (1700 ng/mL) and would be well tolerated in 15 children aged 5 to 12 years with acute asthma exacerbations. After administration of montelukast chewable tablets, blood samples were collected at 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 120, 180, and 240 minutes. Plasma was separated and frozen at -80°C until analysis for montelukast concentration using liquid chromatography- tandem mass spectrometry. Median time to Cmax (tmax ) was 3.0 hours. Six participants (40%) achieved Cmax of 1700 ng/mL or higher. However, there was high interindividual variability in peak plasma concentration (median Cmax of 1378 ng/mL; range, 16-4895 ng/mL). No participant had side effects or adverse events. Plasma concentrations from this pilot study support the design of a weight-based dose-finding study aimed at selecting an optimal dose for future clinical trials to assess the efficacy of high-dose oral montelukast in children with moderate to severe asthma exacerbations.

Abstract
Organic anion transporting polypeptide 2B1 (OATP2B1, SLCO2B1) is an uptake transporter expressed in several tissues, including the liver, intestine, brain, kidney, and skeletal muscle. Hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 alpha (HNF4α) is known as an important transcriptional factor of OATP2B1 in the liver. It has been reported that there are large interindividual differences in OATP2B1 mRNA and protein expressions in human livers. The mechanism causing the interindividual differences in OATP2B1 expression is still unclear. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) control gene expression by leading translational repression and/or degradation of the target mRNA. There is no significant correlation between OATP2B1 mRNA and protein expression, suggesting that post-transcriptional regulating mechanisms, such as miRNAs, play an important role in the interindividual differences in OATP2B1 expression. In this study, we hypothesized that certain miRNAs cause the interindividual differences in OATP2B1 expression in the human liver. In silico analysis showed that miR-24 was a candidate miRNA regulating OATP2B1 expression. It has been reported that miR-24 degrades HNF4α mRNA expression. We revealed that the miR-24 expression level was negatively correlated with OATP2B1 mRNA, protein, and HNF4α mRNA expression levels in human livers. Transfection by the miR-24 precursor decreased the luciferase activity in the transfected cells with the vector containing the OATP2B1 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) or SLCO2B1 promoter region. In HepaRG cells, miR-24 decreased the OATP2B1 and HNF4α expression levels. These results suggest that miR-24 represses not only the translation of OATP2B1 but also the transcription of OATP2B1 by HNF4α mRNA degradation.

Abstract
Aim: To study the influence of pineapple juice on the pharmacokinetics of celecoxib and montelukast in humans. Experimental methods: The research comprised two separate arms. Each arm was randomized, two-crossover periods separated by a 2-week washout period. Subjects received a single dose of celecoxib or montelukast after pretreatment with either water or pineapple juice for 4 days before the study beginning. Results & conclusion: Pineapple juice enhanced the systemic exposure of both drugs without any noticeable adverse effects. For celecoxib, Cmax and AUC0-∞ were increased significantly by 40 and 60%, respectively. Cl/F was decreased by 45% without affecting its t1/2. For montelukast, Cmax and AUC0-∞ were significantly increased by 21 and 48%, respectively, along with 25% decrease in clearance and 13% increase in t1/2.

Abstract
High pharmacokinetic variability of voriconazole is mainly explained by CYP2C19 phenotype, but there are still unknown factors affecting the variability. In this study, the effect of solute carrier organic anion transporter family member 2B1 (SLCO2B1) genotype on the pharmacokinetics (PKs) of voriconazole was evaluated in 12 healthy CYP2C19 poor metabolizers after a single administration of voriconazole 200 mg intravenously and orally. In addition, the influence of CYP3A4 enzyme activity was also explored. The oral absorption of voriconazole was decreased and delayed in the subjects with the SLCO2B1 c.*396T>C variant compared to the subjects with wild type. However, the CYP3A activity markers measured in this study did not show significant association with metabolism of voriconazole. The results suggest that the SLCO2B1 c.*396T>C may be associated with the decreased function of intestinal OATP2B1, and it could contribute to interindividual PK variability of voriconazole.

Abstract
Drug-drug interaction (DDI) is one of causes of adverse drug events and can result in life-threatening consequences. Organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP) 2B1 is a major uptake transporter in the intestine and contributes to transport various clinically used therapeutic agents. The intestine has a high risk of DDI, because it has a special propensity to be exposed to a high concentration of drugs. Thus, understanding drug interaction mediated by OATP2B1 in the absorption process is important for the prevention of adverse drug events, including decrease in the therapeutic effect of co-administered drugs. Acute drug interaction occurs through the direct inhibitory effect on transporters, including OATP2B1. Moreover, some compounds such as clinically used drugs and food components have an acute stimulatory effect on transport of co-administered drugs by OATP2B1. This review summarizes the acute stimulatory effect on the transport mediated by OATP2B1 and discusses the mechanisms of the acute stimulatory effects of compounds. There are two types of acute stimulatory effects, substrate-independent and -dependent interactions on OATP2B1 function. The facilitating translocation of OATP2B1 to the plasma membrane is one of causes for the substrate-independent acute stimulatory effect. On the contrary, the substrate-dependent effect is based on the direct binding to the substrate-binding site or allosteric progesterone-binding site of OATP2B1.

Abstract
Rosuvastatin, is a widely-used statin for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia and the prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Although rosuvastatin is well tolerated, about 3/10.000 patients can suffer severe myopathy. Rhabdomyolysis is a severe medical condition that causes injury to the skeletal muscle, electrolyte imbalances, acute renal failure and extreme creatine kinase (CK) elevation. Little is known regarding the molecular involvement of rosuvastatin-induced rhabdomyolysis (RIR). It has been demonstrated that genomic variants associated with decreased enzymatic activity of proteins are important determinants in plasmatic and skeletal muscle distribution of rosuvastatin and its toxicity. Until now, no interactions of ticagrelor, ezetimibe and rosuvastatin have been described with the consideration of pharmacogenomics predisposition. The present report involves a whole-exome sequencing (WES), in a patient affected by rosuvastatin-induced rhabdomyolysis. A pharmacogenomic dissection was performed by analyzing a comprehensive subset of candidate genes (n=160) potentially related to RIR. The genes were selected according to their implication in drug metabolism or inherited myopathies. Using an innovative approach of bioinformatics analysis, considering rare and common variants, we identified 19 genomic variations potentially related to the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modifications of rosuvastatin, ezetimibe and ticagrelor. The affected genes are involved in Phase I metabolism (CYP2C19, CYP2E1, CYP1A1, CYP2D6 and CYP2C9), Phase II metabolism (UGT2B15 and UGT2B7), influx transportation (SLCO1B3 and SLCO2B1), efflux transportation (ABCG8, ABCB11, ABCC4 and ABCB1), drug targeting (NPC1L1) and inherited myopathy etiology (OBSCN). We report three rare, potentially pathogenic molecular variants in CYP2C19, NPC1L1 and OBSCN genes. Pharmacogenetic analysis indicated that the patient was a carrier of inactivating alleles in several pharmacogenes involved in drug toxicity. The whole-exome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis presented here represents an innovative way to identify genomic variants contributing with RIR´s origin and evokes the polygenic nature of adverse drug reactions.

Abstract
Background Montelukast, a potent oral selective leukotriene-receptor antagonist, inhibits the action of cysteinyl-leukotriene in patients with asthma. Although pharmacokinetic studies of montelukast have been reported in Caucasian adults and children, and showed large inter-individual variability on pharmacokinetics, none of these studies has been explored in Chinese children. Given the potential inter-ethnic difference, the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of developmental factors and pharmacogenetics of CYP2C8 and SLCO2B1 on montelukast clearance in Chinese pediatric patients. Methods After the administration of montelukast, blood samples were collected from children and plasma concentrations were determined using an adapted micro high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with the fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) method. A previously published pharmacokinetic model was validated using the opportunistic pharmacokinetic samples, and individual patient’s clearance was calculated using the validated model. Population pharmacokinetic analysis was performed using a nonlinear mixed-effects model approach (NONMEM V 7.2.0) and variants of CYP2C8 and SLCO2B1 were genotyped. Results Fifty patients (age range: 0.7–10.0 years) with asthma were enrolled in this study. The clearance of montelukast was significantly higher in children with the SLCO2B1 c.935GA and c.935AA genotypes compared with that of children with the SLCO2B1 c.935GG genotype (0.94 ± 0.26 versus 0.77 ± 0.21, p = 0.020). The patient’s weight was also found to be significantly corrected with montelukast clearance (p <0.0001). Conclusion The developmental pharmacology of montelukast in Chinese children was evaluated. Weight and SLCO2B1 genotype were found to have independent significant impacts on the clearance of montelukast.

Abstract
Introduction Asthma is a common condition that affects large numbers of children and adults, yet the burden of disease is not equally distributed amongst groups. In the United States, African Americans and Puerto Ricans have higher rates of asthma and its complications when compared with European Americans. However, clinical trials and genetic studies have largely focused on the latter group. Areas covered Here we examine what is known regarding differences in asthma treatment response by race-ethnicity. We also review existing genetic studies related to the use of asthma medications, paying special attention to studies that included substantial numbers of non-white population groups. Publicly accessible search engines of the medical literature were queried using combinations of the terms asthma, race, ethnicity, pharmacogenomics, and pharmacogenetics, as well as the names of individual asthma medication classes. The list of articles reviewed was supplemented by bibliographies and expert knowledge. Expert opinion A substantial and coordinated effort is still needed to both identify and validate genetic biomarkers of asthma medication response, as currently there are no clinically actionable genetic markers available for this purpose. The path to identifying such markers in non-white populations is even more formidable, since these groups are underrepresented in existing data.

Abstract
A large number of nutrients and bioactive ingredients found in milk play an important role in the nourishment of breast-fed infants and dairy consumers. Some of these ingredients include physiologically relevant compounds such as vitamins, peptides, neuroactive compounds and hormones. Conversely, milk may contain substances-drugs, pesticides, carcinogens, environmental pollutants-which have undesirable effects on health. The transfer of these compounds into milk is unavoidably linked to the function of transport proteins. Expression of transporters belonging to the ATP-binding cassette (ABC-) and Solute Carrier (SLC-) superfamilies varies with the lactation stages of the mammary gland. In particular, Organic Anion Transporting Polypeptides 1A2 (OATP1A2) and 2B1 (OATP2B1), Organic Cation Transporter 1 (OCT1), Novel Organic Cation Transporter 1 (OCTN1), Concentrative Nucleoside Transporters 1, 2 and 3 (CNT1, CNT2 and CNT3), Peptide Transporter 2 (PEPT2), Sodium-dependent Vitamin C Transporter 2 (SVCT2), Multidrug Resistance-associated Protein 5 (ABCC5) and Breast Cancer Resistance Protein (ABCG2) are highly induced during lactation. This review will focus on these transporters overexpressed during lactation and their role in the transfer of products into the milk, including both beneficial and harmful compounds. Furthermore, additional factors, such as regulation, polymorphisms or drug-drug interactions will be described.

Abstract
Asthma is a frequent disease, mainly characterized by airway inflammation, in which drug therapy is crucial in its management. The potential of pharmacogenomics testing in asthma therapy has been, to date, little explored. In this review, we discuss pharmacogenetic factors affecting asthma treatment, both related to drugs used as controller medications for regular maintenance, such as inhaled corticosteroids, anti-leukotriene agents, long-acting beta-agonists, and the new biologic agents used to treat severe persistent asthma. In addition, we discuss current pharmacogenomics knowledge for rescue medications provided to all patients for as-needed relief, such as short-acting beta-agonists. Evidence for genetic variations as a factor related to drugs response has been provided for the following genes and groups of drugs: Inhaled corticosteroids: FCER2; anti-leukotriene agents: ABCC1, and LTC4S; beta-agonists: ADRB2. However, the following genes require further studies confirming or rejecting association with the response to asthma therapy: ADCY9, ALOX5, ARG1, ARG2, CRHR1, CRHR2, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYSLTR1, CYSLTR2, GLCCI1, IL4RA, LTA4H, ORMDL3, SLCO2B1, SPATS2L, STIP1, T, TBX21, THRA, THRB, and VEGFA. Although only a minority of these genes are, at present, listed as associated with drugs used in asthma therapy, in the Clinical Pharmacogenomics Implementation Consortium gene-drug pair list, this review reveals that sufficient evidence to start testing the potential of clinical pharmacogenomics in asthma therapy already exists. This evidence supports the inclusion in pilot pharmacogenetics tests of at least four genes. Hopefully these tests, if proven useful, will increase the efficiency and the safety of asthma therapy.

The mechanisms of pharmacokinetic food-drug interactions - A perspective from the UNGAP group. Eur J Pharm Sci 2019; 134:31-59.

Abstract
The simultaneous intake of food and drugs can have a strong impact on drug release, absorption, distribution, metabolism and/or elimination and consequently, on the efficacy and safety of pharmacotherapy. As such, food-drug interactions are one of the main challenges in oral drug administration. Whereas pharmacokinetic (PK) food-drug interactions can have a variety of causes, pharmacodynamic (PD) food-drug interactions occur due to specific pharmacological interactions between a drug and particular drinks or food. In recent years, extensive efforts were made to elucidate the mechanisms that drive pharmacokinetic food-drug interactions. Their occurrence depends mainly on the properties of the drug substance, the formulation and a multitude of physiological factors. Every intake of food or drink changes the physiological conditions in the human gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, a precise understanding of how different foods and drinks affect the processes of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism and/or elimination as well as formulation performance is important in order to be able to predict and avoid such interactions. Furthermore, it must be considered that beverages such as milk, grapefruit juice and alcohol can also lead to specific food-drug interactions. In this regard, the growing use of food supplements and functional food requires urgent attention in oral pharmacotherapy. Recently, a new consortium in Understanding Gastrointestinal Absorption-related Processes (UNGAP) was established through COST, a funding organisation of the European Union supporting translational research across Europe. In this review of the UNGAP Working group "Food-Drug Interface", the different mechanisms that can lead to pharmacokinetic food-drug interactions are discussed and summarised from different expert perspectives.

Abstract
Organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATP) encoded by the SLCO gene family constitute clinically important transporters involved in the disposition of endogenous compounds and many commonly prescribed drugs, including statins, methotrexate and antihypertensive medications. Common genetic polymorphisms in SLCO genes are known to affect OATP function and modulate efficacy and safety of OATP substrates. However, current frequency data of these variants and haplotypes is generally based on few rather heterogenous populations of relatively small sample size. Furthermore, the genetic variability beyond these selected pharmacogenetic biomarkers has not been systematically analyzed. Here, we provide a global consolidated map of SLCO variability by leveraging fully compatible Next Generation Sequencing data from 138,632 unrelated individuals across seven major human populations. Overall, we find 9811 exonic single nucleotide variants and 155 copy number variations of which 99.3% were rare with frequencies <1%. Using orthogonal computational functionality predictors optimized for pharmacogenetic assessments, we find that four out of five individuals carry at least one deleterious variant in an SLCO transporter gene and rare variants contribute 23% to the genetically encoded functional variability. Moreover, 74.9% of all variants were found to be population-specific with important consequences for population-specific genotyping strategies and precision public health approaches. Combined, our analyses provide the most comprehensive data set of SLCO variability published to date and incentivize the integration of comprehensive NGS-based genotyping into personalized predictions of OATP substrate disposition.

Abstract
Preschool wheeze is a common but poorly understood cause of respiratory morbidity that is both distinct from and overlaps with infantile bronchiolitis and school age asthma. Attempts at classification by epidemiology, pathophysiology, therapeutic response and clinical phenotype are imperfect and yet fundamental to both treatment choice and research design. The four main therapeutic classes for preschool wheeze, namely beta2 agonists, anticholinergics, corticosteroids and leukotriene modifiers are employed with variable and often scanty evidence base, with evidence for a genetic influence on response variations. The article will discuss the pharmacogenetics of the various options, summarise current treatment recommendations, and explore future research directions.

Abstract
Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD) severity and its clinical phenotypes are characterized by genetic variation within pathways for arachidonic acid metabolism, inflammation, and immune responses. Epigenetic effects, including DNA methylation and histone protein modification, contribute to regulation of many genes that contribute to inflammatory states in AERD. The development of noninvasive, predictive clinical tests using data from genetic, epigenetic, pharmacogenetic, and biomarker studies will improve precision medicine efforts for AERD and asthma treatment.

Abstract
Nearly one-half of asthmatic patients do not respond to the most common therapies. Evidence suggests that genetic factors may be involved in the heterogeneity in therapeutic response and adverse events to asthma therapies. We focus on the three major classes of asthma medication: β-adrenergic receptor agonist, inhaled corticosteroids, and leukotriene modifiers. Pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics studies have identified several candidate genes associated with drug response.In this chapter, the main pharmacogenetic and pharmacogenomic studies in addition to the future perspectives in personalized medicine will be reviewed. The ideal treatment of asthma would be a tailored approach to health care in which adverse effects are minimized and the therapeutic benefit for an individual asthmatic is maximized leading to a more cost-effective care.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Asthmatic patients show a large heterogeneity in response to asthma medication. Rapidly evolving genotyping technologies have led to the identification of various genetic variants associated with treatment outcomes. Areas covered: This review focuses on the current knowledge of genetic variants influencing treatment response to the most commonly used asthma medicines: short- and long-acting beta-2 agonists (SABA/LABA), inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) and leukotriene modifiers. This review shows that various genetic variants have been identified, but none are currently used to guide asthma treatment. One of the most promising genetic variants is the Arg16 variant in the ADRB2 gene to guide LABA treatment in asthmatic children. Expert commentary: Poor replication of initially promising results and the low fraction of variability accounted for by single genetic variants inhibit pharmacogenetic findings to reach the asthma clinic. Nevertheless, the identification of genetic variation influencing treatment response does provide more insights in the complex processes underlying response and might identify novel targets for treatment. There is a need to report measures of clinical validity, to perform precision-medicine guided trials, as well as to understand how genetic variation interacts with environmental factors. In addition, systems biology approaches might be able to show a more complete picture of these complex interactions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antiretroviral drugs are among the therapeutic agents with the highest potential for drug-drug interactions (DDIs). In the absence of clinical data, DDIs are mainly predicted based on preclinical data and knowledge of the disposition of individual drugs. Predictions can be challenging, especially when antiretroviral drugs induce and inhibit multiple cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzymes simultaneously. METHODS This study predicted the magnitude of the DDI between efavirenz, an inducer of CYP3A4 and inhibitor of CYP2C8, and dual CYP3A4/CYP2C8 substrates (repaglinide, montelukast, pioglitazone, paclitaxel) using a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling approach integrating concurrent effects on CYPs. In vitro data describing the physicochemical properties, absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination of efavirenz and CYP3A4/CYP2C8 substrates as well as the CYP-inducing and -inhibitory potential of efavirenz were obtained from published literature. The data were integrated in a PBPK model developed using mathematical descriptions of molecular, physiological, and anatomical processes defining pharmacokinetics. Plasma drug-concentration profiles were simulated at steady state in virtual individuals for each drug given alone or in combination with efavirenz. The simulated pharmacokinetic parameters of drugs given alone were compared against existing clinical data. The effect of efavirenz on CYP was compared with published DDI data. RESULTS The predictions indicate that the overall effect of efavirenz on dual CYP3A4/CYP2C8 substrates is induction of metabolism. The magnitude of induction tends to be less pronounced for dual CYP3A4/CYP2C8 substrates with predominant CYP2C8 metabolism. CONCLUSION PBPK modeling constitutes a useful mechanistic approach for the quantitative prediction of DDI involving simultaneous inducing or inhibitory effects on multiple CYPs as often encountered with antiretroviral drugs.

Abstract
To identify the genetic basis of interindividual variability in montelukast exposure, we determined its pharmacokinetics and sequenced 379 pharmacokinetic genes in 191 healthy volunteers. An intronic single nucleotide variation (SNV), strongly linked with UGT1A3*2, associated with reduced area under the plasma concentration–time curve (AUC0‐∞) of montelukast (by 18% per copy of the minor allele; P = 1.83 × 10−10). UGT1A3*2 was associated with increased AUC0‐∞ of montelukast acyl‐glucuronide M1 and decreased AUC0‐∞ of hydroxymetabolites M5R, M5S, and M6 (P < 10−9). Furthermore, SNVs in SLCO1B1 and ABCC9 were associated with the AUC0‐∞ of M1 and M5R, respectively. In addition, a candidate gene analysis suggested that CYP2C8 and ABCC9 SNVs also affect the AUC0‐∞ of montelukast. The found UGT1A3 and ABCC9 variants associated with increased expression of the respective genes in human liver samples. Montelukast and its hydroxymetabolites were glucuronidated by UGT1A3 in vitro. These results indicate that UGT1A3 plays an important role in montelukast pharmacokinetics, especially in UGT1A3*2 carriers.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pharmacogenetic and pharmacogenomic approaches are already utilized in some areas, such as oncology and cardiovascular disease, for selecting appropriate patients and/or establishing treatment and dosing guidelines. This is not true in asthma although many patients have different responses to drug treatment due to genetic factors. Areas covered: Several genetic factors that affect the pharmacotherapeutic responses to asthma medications, such as β2-AR agonists, corticosteroids, and leukotriene modifiers and could contribute to significant between-person variability in response are described. Expert opinion: An expanding number of genetic loci have been associated with therapeutic responses to asthma drugs but the individual effect of one single-nucleotide polymorphism is partial. In fact, epigenetic changes can modify genetic effects in time-, environment-, and tissue-specific manners, genes interact together in networks, and nongenetic components such as environmental exposures, gender, nutrients, and lifestyle can significantly interact with genetics to determine the response to therapy. Therefore, well-designed randomized controlled trials or observational studies are now mandatory to define if response to asthma medications in individual patients can be improved by using pharmacogenetic predictors of treatment response. Meanwhile, routine implementation of pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics into clinical practice remains a futuristic, far-off challenge for many clinical practices.

Abstract
Although montelukast is generally well tolerated, postmarketing studies have reported serious neuropsychiatric adverse drug reactions (ADRs) leading to a United States Food and Drug Administration black box warning. The objective of this study was to determine the incidence of neuropsychiatric ADRs leading to discontinuation of montelukast in asthmatic children.We conducted a retrospective cohort study in children aged 1-17 years initiated on montelukast. In a nested cohort study, children initiated on montelukast as monotherapy or adjunct therapy to inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) were matched to those initiated on ICS monotherapy. A non-leading parental interview served to ascertain the occurrence of any ADRs with any asthma medication, and circumstances related to, and evolution of, the event.Out of the 106 participants who initiated montelukast, most were male (58%), Caucasian (62%) with a median (interquartile range) age of 5 (3-8) years. The incidence (95% CI) of drug cessation due to neuropsychiatric ADRs was 16 (10-26)%, mostly occurring within 2 weeks. Most frequent ADRs were irritability, aggressiveness and sleep disturbances. The relative risk of neuropsychiatric ADRs associated with montelukast versus ICS was 12 (2-90).In the real-life setting, asthmatic children initiated on montelukast experienced a notable risk of neuropsychiatric ADRs leading to drug cessation, that is significantly higher than that associated with ICS.
