Abstract
This work aimed to evaluate the total, unbound, renal, and hepatic clearances of raltegravir (RAL) and the formation and elimination clearances of raltegravir glucuronide (RAL GLU) in pregnant women living with HIV. The participants received RAL 400 mg twice daily during the third trimester (n = 15) of gestation, delivery (n = 15), and the postpartum period (n = 8). Pharmacokinetic parameter values were calculated on the basis of plasma and urine data using noncompartmental methods. RAL clearances for the third trimester of gestation were as follows: total clearance: geometric mean, 63.63 L/h (95% CI, 47.5-85.25); renal clearance: geometric mean, 2.56 L/h (95% CI, 1.96-3.34); hepatic clearance: geometric mean, 60.52 L/h (95% CI, 44.65-82.04); and unbound clearance: geometric mean, 281.14 L/h (95% CI, 203.68-388.05). RAL GLU formation and elimination clearances for the third trimester of gestation were 7.57 L/h (95% CI, 4.94-11.6) and 8.71 L/h (95% CI, 6.71-11.32), respectively. No differences were observed in RAL GLU pharmacokinetic parameters between the third trimester of gestation and the postpartum period, except for higher formation (7.57 vs 4.03 L/h) and elimination (8.71 vs 4.92 L/h) clearances during the third trimester. The findings based on plasma and urine data are consistent with an increase in the hepatic uridine 5' diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase isoenzymes activities involved in RAL metabolism during pregnancy, and the formation of RAL GLU is a minor route of RAL elimination. Compared to the postpartum period, in the third trimester of gestation, the similar RAL plasma exposure in pregnant women reinforces the maintenance of an RAL regimen including a 400-mg oral dose twice daily during pregnancy.

Abstract
This study evaluates the influence of pregnancy and HIV infection in conjunction with the use of raltegravir, lamivudine, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (combined antiretroviral therapy [cART]) on intestinal P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and hepatic organic anion transporter polypeptide (OATP) 1B1/1B3 and/or breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) drug transporter activity using rosuvastatin (OATP1B/BCRP) and fexofenadine (P-gp) probes. Single oral doses of 5-mg rosuvastatin and 60-mg fexofenadine were administered to women living with HIV under cART in the third trimester of gestation (n = 15) and postpartum period (n = 10). A control group of 12 healthy nonpregnant women also was investigated. Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated by using a noncompartmental method and evaluated by t test (P < .05). The rosuvastatin area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable concentration (AUC0-last ) value was higher in the third trimester of pregnancy (19.5 [95%CI, 16.8-22.3] ng • h/mL] when compared to postpartum (13.3 [95%CI, 9.3-17.5] ng • h/mL), while the fexofenadine AUC0-last values did not differ between the third trimester of pregnancy (738.0 [95%CI, 611.4-864.6] ng • h/mL) and postpartum period (874.9 [95%CI, 408.2-1342.0] ng• h/mL). The rosuvastatin AUC0-last values did not differ between healthy nonpregnant women (13.8 [95%CI, 10.0-17.6] ng • h/mL) and women living with HIV in the postpartum period (13.3 [95%CI, 9.3-17.5] ng • h/mL), and the fexofenadine AUC0-last values did not differ between the 2 investigated groups (603.6 [95%CI, 467.5-739.7] ng • h/mL vs 874.9 [95%CI, 408.2-1342.0] ng • h/mL). It is suggested that gestation inhibits the hepatic OATP1B1/1B3 and/or BCRP activity but does not alter intestinal P-gp activity. The influence of HIV infection in conjunction with use of cART on OATP1B/BCRP and intestinal P-gp activity was not observed.

Medically Important Alterations in Transport Function and Trafficking of ABCG2. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22062786. [PMID: 33801813 PMCID: PMC8001156 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22062786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2021] [Revised: 03/04/2021] [Accepted: 03/05/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Several polymorphisms and mutations in the human ABCG2 multidrug transporter result in reduced plasma membrane expression and/or diminished transport function. Since ABCG2 plays a pivotal role in uric acid clearance, its malfunction may lead to hyperuricemia and gout. On the other hand, ABCG2 residing in various barrier tissues is involved in the innate defense mechanisms of the body; thus, genetic alterations in ABCG2 may modify the absorption, distribution, excretion of potentially toxic endo- and exogenous substances. In turn, this can lead either to altered therapy responses or to drug-related toxic reactions. This paper reviews the various types of mutations and polymorphisms in ABCG2, as well as the ways how altered cellular processing, trafficking, and transport activity of the protein can contribute to phenotypic manifestations. In addition, the various methods used for the identification of the impairments in ABCG2 variants and the different approaches to correct these defects are overviewed.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Interindividual differences in drug response are a frequent clinical challenge partly due to variation in pharmacokinetics. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are crucial determinants of drug disposition. They are subject of gene regulation and drug-interaction; however, it is still under debate to which extend genetic variants in these transporters contribute to interindividual variability of a wide range of drugs. AREAS COVERED This review discusses the current literature on the impact of genetic variants in ABCB1, ABCG2 as well as ABCC1, ABCC2, and ABCC3 on pharmacokinetics and drug response. The aim was to evaluate if results from recent studies would increase the evidence for potential clinically relevant pharmacogenetic effects. EXPERT OPINION Although enormous efforts have been made to investigate effects of ABC transporter genotypes on drug pharmacokinetics and response, the majority of studies showed only weak if any associations. Despite few unique results, studies mostly failed to confirm earlier findings or still remained inconsistent. The impact of genetic variants on drug bioavailability is only minor and other factors regulating the transporter expression and function seem to be more critical. In our opinion, the findings on the so far investigated genetic variants in ABC efflux transporters are not suitable as predictive biomarkers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Integrase strand transfer inhibitors (INSTIs), dolutegravir, elvitegravir, and raltegravir, have become integral in the treatment of HIV, with close monitoring of continued efficacy and tolerability. As side effect occurrence varies among subjects receiving these drugs, we sought to perform an exploratory analysis examining the role of several single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on drug concentration changes, selected clinical outcomes, and the occurrence of subject-reported adverse events. METHODS Adults (aged ≥ 18 years) receiving INSTI-based regimens for treatment of HIV were recruited and genotyped with an iPLEX ADME PGx Pro v1.0 Panel. Multiple linear or logistic regression with covariates [age, sex, BMI, regimen (in the across-regimen group), regimen duration, and baseline variables (for continuous parameters)] was used to detect significant (p < 0.05) association of selected clinical data with genetic variants within the study population. RESULTS In a sample (n = 88) with a median age of 52.5 years (IQR 45.7-57.2) being predominately Caucasian (88.6%) and male (86.4%), this exploratory study discovered several associations between variables and SNPs, when using INSTIs. Abnormal dream occurrence was statistically different (p = 0.028) between regimens. Additionally, several SNPs were found to be associated with adverse event profiles primarily when all regimens were grouped together. CONCLUSION The associations found in this study point to a need for further assessment, within the population living with HIV, of factors contributing to unfavorable subject outcomes. These exploratory findings require confirmation in larger studies, which then may investigate pharmacogenetic mechanisms.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION ABCG2 has a broad substrate specificity and is one of the most important efflux proteins modulating pharmacokinetics of drugs, nutrients and toxicokinetics of toxicants. ABCG2 is an important player in transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions (tDDI). Areas covered: The aims of the review are i) to cover transporter interaction profile of substrates and inhibitors that can be utilized to test interaction of drug candidates with ABCG2, ii) to highlight main characteristics of in vitro testing and iii) to describe the structural basis of the broad substrate specificity of the protein. Preclinical data utilizing Abcg2/Bcrp1 knockouts and clinical studies showing effect of ABCG2 c.421C>A polymorphism on pharmacokinetics of drugs have provided evidence for a broad array of drug substrates and support drug - ABCG2 interaction testing. A consensus on using rosuvastatin and sulfasalazine as intestinal substrates for clinical studies is in the formation. Other substrates relevant to the therapeutic area can be considered. Monolayer efflux assays and vesicular transport assays have been extensively utilized in vitro. Expert opinion: Clinical substrates display complex pharmacokinetics due to broad interaction profiles with multiple transporters and metabolic enzymes. Substrate-dependent inhibition has been observed for several inhibitors. Harmonization of in vitro and in vivo testing makes sense. However, rosuvastatin and sulfasalazine are not efficiently transported in either MDCKII or LLC-PK1-based monolayers. Caco-2 monolayer assays and vesicular transport assays are potential alternatives.

Abstract
The widespread expression and polyspecificity of the multidrug ABCG2 efflux transporter make it an important determinant of the pharmacokinetics of a variety of substrate drugs. Null ABCG2 expression has been linked to the Junior blood group. Polymorphisms affecting the expression or function of ABCG2 may have clinically important roles in drug disposition and efficacy. The most well-studied single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), Q141K (421C>A), is shown to decrease ABCG2 expression and activity, resulting in increased total drug exposure and decreased resistance to various substrates. The effect of Q141K can be rationalized by inspection of the ABCG2 structure, and the effects of this SNP on protein processing may make it a target for pharmacological intervention. The V12M SNP (34G>A) appears to improve outcomes in cancer patients treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors, but the reasons for this are yet to be established, and this residue's role in the mechanism of the protein is unexplored by current biochemical and structural approaches. Research into the less-common polymorphisms is confined to in vitro studies, with several polymorphisms shown to decrease resistance to anticancer agents such as SN-38 and mitoxantrone. In this review, we present a systematic analysis of the effects of ABCG2 polymorphisms on ABCG2 function and drug pharmacokinetics. Where possible, we use recent structural advances to present a molecular interpretation of the effects of SNPs and indicate where we need further in vitro experiments to fully resolve how SNPs impact ABCG2 function.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Combination antiretroviral therapy (ART) reduces viral load to under the limit of detection, successfully decreasing HIV-related morbidity and mortality. Due to viral mutations, complex drug combinations and different patient response, there is an increasing demand for individualized treatment options for patients. AREAS COVERED This review first summarizes the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile of clinical first-line drugs, which serves as guidance for antiretroviral precision medicine. Factors which have influential effects on drug efficacy and thus precision medicine are discussed: patients' pharmacogenetic information, virus mutations, comorbidities, and immune recovery. Furthermore, strategies to improve the application of precision medicine are discussed. EXPERT OPINION Precision medicine for ART requires comprehensive information on the drug, virus, and clinical data from the patients. The clinically available genetic tests are a good starting point. To better apply precision medicine, deeper knowledge of drug concentrations, HIV reservoirs, and efficacy associated genes, such as polymorphisms of drug transporters and metabolizing enzymes, are required. With advanced computer-based prediction systems which integrate more comprehensive information on pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenomics, and the clinically relevant information of the patients, precision medicine will lead to better treatment choices and improved disease outcomes.

Abstract
The ATP-binding cassette transporters B1 (ABCB1) and G2 (ABCG2) are both expressed in the intestine and known as efflux transporters of drugs. Dolutegravir was identified recently as a substrate of both ABCB1 and ABCG2. This study aimed to determine the relations between single-nucleotide polymorphisms of ABCB1 and ABCG2 genes and plasma dolutegravir concentrations. Plasma samples were obtained from 42 HIV-1-infected patients treated with dolutegravir-containing regimens 0.5-4 h after dolutegravir dosing. Plasma dolutegravir concentrations were measured by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Genomic DNA was isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Genotyping of allelic variants of ABCB1 1236 C>T (rs1128503), 2677 G>T/A (rs2032582), 3435 C>T (rs1045642), 4036 A>G (rs3842), and ABCG2 421 C>A (rs2231142) was performed using the TaqMan drug metabolism assays. None of the genotypes in ABCB1 1236 C>T, 2677 G>T/A, 3435 C>T, and 4036 A>G correlated with plasma dolutegravir concentration. In contrast, the mean peak plasma concentration of dolutegravir was significantly higher in the genotypes of ABCG2 421 AA (5002 ng/ml, n=3) compared with the genotypes of ABCG2 421 CC (2569 ng/ml, n=22) and ABCG2 421 CA (2479 ng/ml, n=17) (P=0.0005). The speculated peak level of plasma dolutegravir concentration was significantly higher in ABCG2 genetic variant holders, probably, at least in part, because of low expression levels of efflux transporters in the intestines associated with these genetic variants.

Abstract
To date, antiretroviral therapy is highly effective in HIV-affected patients, but the individualization of such a life-long therapy may be advised. This review briefly summarizes the main factors involved in the potential personalization of antiretroviral treatment. Relevant articles in English were identified by PubMed and recent congresses’ abstracts. Foremost influences concerning pharmacodynamics, therapeutic drug monitoring, pharmacogenetics, comorbidities, immune recovery and viral characteristics affecting the healthcare of HIV-positive patients are listed here. Furthermore, pharmacoeconomic aspects are mentioned. Applying pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenetic knowledge may be informative and guide the better choice of treatment in order to achieve long-term efficacy and avoid adverse events. Randomized investigations of the clinical relevance of tailored antiretroviral regimens are needed in order to obtain a better management of HIV/AIDS-affected patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Antiretroviral treatment is highly effective in enhancing HIV-positive patients' survival and quality of life. Despite an increased tolerability in recent years, a substantial amount of patients experience side effects. Antiretrovirals' efficacy and tolerability have been associated with plasma concentrations and single nucleotide polymorphisms in selected genes involved in drug disposition. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to review the current knowledge in genetic polymorphisms affecting plasma, intracellular or compartmental concentrations of antiretrovirals. METHODS A search of the PubMed database was conducted to identify relevant articles, using the following terms: 'pharmacogenetics' or 'pharmacogenomics' or 'single nucleotide polymorphisms' or 'genetic/allelic variants' and 'pharmacokinetics' or 'concentrations' and 'HIV' or 'antiretroviral'. Abstracts from the main HIV conferences during 2015 and 2016 were also searched using the same keywords. Abstracts were manually checked and, if relevant, full papers were obtained. Only articles published in English were selected. RESULTS Several genetic polymorphisms in genes coding enzymes involved in drug metabolism (cytochrome P450 isoenzymes and uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferases) and transport (P-glycoprotein, anionic and cationic transporters, other transporters), as well as nuclear receptors (pregnane X receptor and the constitutive androstane receptor), have been associated with concentrations of antiretrovirals. The extent of such influence, the conflicting data, and the potential clinical relevance are discussed in the main section of this article. CONCLUSION Genetic polymorphisms may affect antiretroviral disposition, as well as both efficacy and toxicity. Despite a large amount of data, such precious knowledge has seldom been applied in patients. Studies on the clinical relevance and cost effectiveness of tailoring antiretroviral regimens to patients' genetic assets are lacking, but their importance may grow with the increasing age and complexity of persons living with HIV/AIDS.

Background Dolutegravir (DTG) is metabolized mainly by uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1), and partly by cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A). Therefore, we focused on UGT1A1 gene polymorphisms (*6 and *28) in Japanese individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 to examine the relationship between their plasma trough concentration of DTG and gene polymorphisms. Recently, neuropsychiatric adverse events (NP-AEs) after the use of DTG have become a concern, so the association between UGT1A1 gene polymorphisms and selected NP-AEs was also investigated. Methods The study subjects were 107 Japanese patients with HIV-1 infections who were receiving DTG. Five symptoms (dizziness, headache, insomnia, restlessness, and anxiety) were selected as NP-AEs. The subjects were classified by their UGT1A1 gene polymorphisms for the group comparison of DTG trough concentration and the presence or absence of NP-AEs. Results The subjects consisted of eight (7%) *6 homozygotes, three (3%) *28 homozygotes, four (4%) for *6/*28 compound heterozygotes, 23 (21%) *6 heterozygotes, 18 (17%) *28 heterozygotes, and 51 (48%) patients carrying the normal allele. The plasma DTG trough concentration of the *6 homozygous patients was significantly higher than that of the patients carrying the normal allele (median, 1.43 and 0.82 μg/mL, respectively, p = 0.0054). The *6 and *28 heterozygous patients also showed significantly higher values than those shown by patients with the normal allele. Multivariate analysis revealed that carrying one or two UGT1A1*6 gene polymorphisms, one UGT1A1*28 polymorphism, and age of < 40 years were independent factors associated with high DTG trough concentrations. The median DTG trough concentration was significantly higher in the patients with NP-AEs (1.31 μg/mL) than in those without NP-AEs (1.01 μg/mL). Consistent with these results, subjects carrying UGT1A1*6, UGT1A1*28, or both alleles showed a higher cumulative incidence of having selected NP-AEs than those carrying the normal alleles (p = 0.0454). Conclusion In addition to younger age, carrying UGT1A1*6 and/or UGT1A1*28 was demonstrated to be a factor associated with high DTG trough concentrations. Our results also suggest a relationship between plasma DTG trough concentrations and NP-AEs, and that carrying UGT1A1*6 and/or UGT1A1*28 alleles might be a risk factor for NP-AEs.
