Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of drug-drug interaction (DDI) between tacrolimus and voriconazole on the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus in different CYP3A5 genotypes has not been reported in previous studies. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to investigate whether CYP3A5 genotype could influence tacrolimus-voriconazole DDI in Chinese kidney transplant patients. METHODS All kidney transplant patients were divided into combination and non-combination groups based on whether tacrolimus was combined with or without voriconazole. Each group was subdivided into CYP3A5 expresser (CYP3A5*1/*1 or CYP3A5*1/*3) and CYP3A5 nonexpresser (CYP3A5*3/*3). A retrospective analysis compared tacrolimus dose (D)-corrected trough concentrations (C0) (C0/D) between combination and non-combination groups, respectively. Tacrolimus C0/D was also compared between CYP3A5 expresser and nonexpresser in both groups. RESULTS The C0/D values of tacrolimus were significantly different between CYP3A5 expresser and nonexpresser in combination group (378.20 [219.38, 633.48] ng/mL/[mg/kg/d] vs 720.00 [595.35, 1681.50] ng/mL/[mg/kg/d], P = 0.0010). Either in CYP3A5 expresser or nonexpresser, we found a statistically significant difference in tacrolimus C0/D between combination and non-combination group (P < 0.0001). The increase in CYP3A5 nonexpresser was 1.38 times higher than that in CYP3A5 expresser (320.93% vs 232.19%). CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE The median C0/D values were 90.38% higher in kidney transplant recipients with CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype than in those with CYP3A5*1/*1 or CYP3A5*1/*3 genotype when treated with both tacrolimus and voriconazole. A CYP3A5 genotype-dependent DDI was found between tacrolimus and voriconazole. Therefore, personalized therapy accounting for CYP3A5 genotype detection and therapeutic drug monitoring is necessary for kidney transplant patients when treating with tacrolimus and voriconazole.

Ther Adv Drug Saf 2024; 15:20420986241243165. [PMID: 38646424 PMCID: PMC11027596 DOI: 10.1177/20420986241243165] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 03/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The effect of drug-drug interaction between tacrolimus and caspofungin on the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus in different CYP3A5 genotypes has not been reported in previous studies. Objectives To investigate the effect of caspofungin on the blood concentration and dose of tacrolimus under different CYP3A5 genotypes. Design We conducted a retrospective cohort study in The First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University and Shandong Provincial Qianfoshan Hospital from January 2015 to December 2022. All kidney transplant patients were divided into the combination or non-combination group based on whether tacrolimus was combined with caspofungin or not. Patients were subdivided into CYP3A5 expressers (CYP3A5*1/*1 or CYP3A5*1/*3) and CYP3A5 non-expressers (CYP3A5*3/*3). Methods Data from the combination and the non-combination groups were matched with propensity scores to reduce confounding by SPSS 22.0. A total of 200 kidney transplant patients receiving tacrolimus combined with caspofungin or not were enrolled in this study. Statistical analysis was conducted on the dose-corrected trough concentrations (C0/D) and dose requirements (D) of tacrolimus using independent sample two-sided t-test and nonparametric tests to investigate the impact on patients with different. Results In this study, the C0/D values of tacrolimus were not significantly different between the combination and non-combination groups (p = 0.054). For CYP3A5 expressers, there was no significant difference in tacrolimus C0/D or D values between the combination and non-combination groups (p = 0.359; p = 0.851). In CYP3A5 nonexpressers, the C0/D values of tacrolimus were significantly lower in the combination than in the non-combination groups (p = 0.039), and the required daily dose of tacrolimus was increased by 11.11% in the combination group. Conclusion Co-administration of caspofungin reduced tacrolimus blood levels and elevated the required daily dose of tacrolimus. In CYP3A5 non-expressers, co-administration of caspofungin had a significant effect on tacrolimus C0/D values. An approximate 10% increase in the weight-adjusted daily dose of tacrolimus in CYP3A5 non-expressers is recommended to ensure the safety of tacrolimus administration.

Abstract
AIMS To evaluate the efficacy of tacrolimus in patients with noninfectious uveitis, as well as the usefulness of serum tacrolimus concentration measurements in predicting disease control. METHODS A retrospective review was carried out on 71 eligible patients from a single specialist uveitis center for minimum 1-year follow-up. Analysis was carried out on disease activity, visual acuity, and trough serum tacrolimus concentrations (STC). RESULTS At 1-year follow-up, disease control was achieved in 49 patients (69.0%), this was significantly more likely in patients with trough STC levels above 5 ng/mL (88% vs 53%, p = .002). There was a significant reduction in oral prednisolone (dose ≥7.5 mg, 86% vs 54%, p < .0001). Tacrolimus was discontinued in 12 patients (17%) due to side effects. DISCUSSION In this study cohort, oral tacrolimus was effective and well tolerated in the treatment of noninfectious uveitis. Trough STC between 5 ng/mL and 10 ng/ml was associated with better disease control at 1-year follow-up.

Abstract
Traditional drugs for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) include aminosalicylic acid preparations, glucocorticoids, and immunosuppressive agents such as thiopurine and cyclosporine. In recent ten years, the application of anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) drugs has greatly improved the clinical remission of patients with IBD, but there are still some problems, such as no response, intolerance, and recurrence after withdrawal. In recent years, tacrolimus, as a new powerful immunosuppressive agent, has been used as a second-line therapeutic drug for IBD. At present, the tacrolimus induced short-term remission effect in IBD is relatively obvious, and it has been gradually used for treatment of IBD refractory to traditional drugs or anti-TNF drugs. A few studies have found that tacrolimus can be used safely for a long time under proper monitoring. However, there is little evidence of long-term efficacy and safety. In this paper, we review the latest advances in the treatment of IBD with tacrolimus and make a comparison with anti-TNF drugs.

Abstract
Cytochromes P450s (CYPs) are terminal enzymes in CYP dependent monooxygenases, which constitute a superfamily of enzymes catalysing the metabolism of both endogenous and exogenous substances. One of their main tasks is to facilitate the excretion of these substances and eliminate their toxicities in most phase 1 reactions. Endogenous substrates of CYPs include steroids, bile acids, eicosanoids, cholesterol, vitamin D and neurotransmitters. About 80% of currently used drugs and environmental chemicals comprise exogenous substrates for CYPs. Genetic polymorphisms of CYPs may affect the enzyme functions and have been reported to be associated with various diseases and adverse drug reactions among different populations. In this review, we discuss the role of some critical CYP isoforms (CYP1A1, CYP2D6, CYP2J2, CYP2R1, CYP3A5, CYP3A7, CYP4F3, CYP24A1, CYP26B1 and CYP27B1) in the pathogenesis or aetiology of ulcerative colitis concerning gene polymorphisms. In addition, their significance in metabolism concerning ulcerative colitis in patients is also discussed showing a clear underestimation in genetic studies performed so far.

Abstract
WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE The target trough concentration of tacrolimus for ulcerative colitis is recommended to be 10-15 ng/mL in the initial two weeks and 5-10 ng/mL in the later phase. However, the effectiveness of rapid attainment of these target trough concentrations of tacrolimus in patients with ulcerative colitis is still unclear. In the present study, we evaluated the clinical efficacy and safety of rapid attainment of target trough concentrations of tacrolimus in patients with ulcerative colitis. METHODS A prospective cohort was conducted at Gifu University Hospital in Gifu, Japan. Hospitalized patients who received tacrolimus for the treatment of ulcerative colitis between April 2009 and March 2017 were enrolled. Since June 2011, the initial loading dose of tacrolimus increased from 0.05 to 0.1-0.2 mg/kg/d, and the maintenance dose to achieve the target trough concentration was determined to be 12.5 ng/mL by proportional calculation with measured blood concentration. The period required to attain target trough concentration and the clinical efficacy before and after dosage modification was compared. RESULTS The initial dose after dosage modification was significantly increased compared to that before dosage modification (0.10 [0.04-0.22], median [range] mg/kg/d vs 0.05 [0.03-0.05] mg/kg/d, P < 0.001). The period required to attain a target trough concentration over 10 ng/mL was significantly shortened by dosage modification (6 [4-14] days before dosage modification vs 4.5 [2-8] days after modification, P = 0.048). Further, stool frequency score was significantly improved after dosage modification, without affecting the incidence of adverse events. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that rapid attainment of the target trough concentration of tacrolimus improves clinical symptoms in patients with ulcerative colitis.

Abstract
Oral drug delivery with nanoparticles has demonstrated great potential for drugs with poor bioavailability. Efficient delivery is possible by overcoming both the mucus and epithelial barrier of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Cationic lipid-assisted nanoparticles (CLANs), which are composed of amphiphilic block copolymers and cationic lipids, have been well studied and have been proved beneficial for drug delivery. In this study, CLANs prepared by poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(lactic acid) (PEG-b-PLA) and 1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propanechloride (DOTAP) or N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-methyl-N-(2-cholesteryloxycarbonyl aminoethyl)ammoniumbromide (BHEM-Chol) were used for oral delivery of tacrolimus (FK506) for ulcerative colitis treatment. The average size of these nanoparticles is around 110 nm and the zeta-potential is 35 mV. These nanoparticles maintained their size in buffer solutions of pH 1.2 and 6.8, and slowly release the encapsulated drug. CLANs can be accumulated in the colon and transported through the epithelium in the colitis model by dextran sulfate sodium salt (DSS), leading to attenuation of DSS-induced colitis.
