Abstract
BACKGROUND For psychotic disorders (i.e. schizophrenia), pharmacotherapy plays a key role in controlling acute and long-term symptoms. To find the optimal individual dose and dosage strategy, specialized tools are used. Three tools have been proven useful to personalize drug treatments: therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of drug levels, pharmacogenetic testing (PG), and molecular neuroimaging. METHODS In these Guidelines, we provide an in-depth review of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacogenetics for 50 antipsychotics. Over 30 international experts in psychiatry selected studies that have measured drug concentrations in the blood (TDM), gene polymorphisms of enzymes involved in drug metabolism, or receptor/transporter occupancies in the brain (positron emission tomography (PET)). RESULTS Study results strongly support the use of TDM and the cytochrome P450 (CYP) genotyping and/or phenotyping to guide drug therapies. Evidence-based target ranges are available for titrating drug doses that are often supported by PET findings. CONCLUSION All three tools discussed in these Guidelines are essential for drug treatment. TDM goes well beyond typical indications such as unclear compliance and polypharmacy. Despite its enormous potential to optimize treatment effects, minimize side effects and ultimately reduce the global burden of diseases, personalized drug treatment has not yet become the standard of care in psychiatry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To explore the influence of CYP2D6 genetic polymorphism on risperidone metabolism, thereby affecting risperidone's effects and safeties in patients with chronic schizophrenia. METHODS Sixty-nine subjects with chronic schizophrenia treated with risperidone were recruited. CYP2D6 genotypes was determined using targeted sequencing and translated into phenotype using activity system. Risperidone plasma concentrations were measured using HPLC. Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS) and Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) were used to evaluate the existence and severity of psychiatric symptoms, Barnes Akathisia Scale (BAS) and Extrapyramidal Symptom Rating Scale (ESRS) for neurological side effects. Metabolic and endocrine status assess were also included. RESULTS The plasma drug concentrations varied hugely among individuals. Intermediate metabolizer (IM) group had higher plasma levels of RIP and dose corrected RIP concentration, RIP/9-OH-RIP ratio and C/D ratio than normal metabolizer (NM) group (p < 0.01). There was no statistic difference between responders and non-responders in dose-adjusted plasma concentrations and ratios of RIP/9-OH-RIP and C/D. The occurrence of EPS was related to active moiety levels in 4th week (p < 0.05). The prolactin (PRL) levels in two follow-ups were both significantly higher than baseline (p < 0.01). PRL change from baseline to week 4 and week 8 were both positively associated with active moiety concentration detected in week 4 (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The risperidone plasma levels have great inter- and intraindividual variations, and are associated with the CYP2D6 phenotypes, as well as the changes in serum prolactin in patients diagnosed with chronic schizophrenia.

Abstract
Second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs), also known as atypical antipsychotics, are a newer class of antipsychotic drugs used to treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and related psychiatric conditions. The plasma concentration of antipsychotic drugs is a valid measure of the drug at its primary target structure in the brain, and therefore determines the efficacy and safety of these drugs. However, despite the well-known high variability in pharmacokinetics of these substances, psychiatric medication is usually administered in uniform dosage schedules. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), as the specific method that can help personalised medicine in dose adjustment according to the characteristics of the individual patient, minimizing the risk of toxicity, monitoring adherence, and increasing cost-effectiveness in the treatment, thus seems to be an elegant tool to solve this problem. Non-response to therapeutic doses, uncertain adherence to medication, suboptimal tolerability, or pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions are typical indications for TDM of SGAs. This review aims to summarize an overview of the current knowledge and evidence of the possibilities to tailor the dosage of selected SGAs using TDM, including the necessary pharmacokinetic parameters for personalised pharmacotherapy.

Abstract
This study aimed to retrospectively explore the relationship between clinical efficacy and plasma concentration-dose ratio of risperidone (RIS) in 252 patients with schizophrenia taking RIS orally. After the same dose of RIS treatment, the plasma concentration of RIS/9-hydroxyrisperidone (9-OH-RIS), the total plasma concentration of RIS, and the ratio of the steady-state plasma concentration to the daily dose of the total active product (C/D) showed individual difference. The RIS plasma concentration was significantly higher in patients taking high doses than those taking lower doses ( P = 0.003). There was a statistically significant difference in C/D ratio between males and females ( P = 0.003). There were significant differences in ratio of C/D and the total plasma concentration of RIS between patients under 60 years and over 60 years ( P = 0.016; P = 0.005). Logistic regression analysis showed that the therapeutic effect and adverse reactions of RIS were correlated with the ratio of C/D in patients with schizophrenia ( P = 0.038; P < 0.001). It has been suggested that the importance of monitoring of the plasma concentration of RIS in patients with schizophrenia and the ratio of C/D may be used as the reference for RIS personalized treatment.

Racial/Ethnic Differences in the Pharmacokinetics of Antipsychotics: Focusing on East Asians. J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12091362.

Abstract
Empirical clinical studies have suggested that East Asian patients may require lower dosages of psychotropic drugs, such as antipsychotics, lithium, and antidepressants, than non-Asians. Both the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of a drug can affect the clinical response of an illness. The levels of antipsychotics used for the treatment of schizophrenia may affect patient clinical responses; several factors can affect these levels, including patient medication adherence, body weight (BW) or body mass index, smoking habits, and sex. The cytochrome P450 (CYP) system is a major factor affecting the blood levels of antipsychotics because many antipsychotics are metabolized by this system. There were notable genetic differences between people of different races. In this study, we determined the racial or ethnic differences in the metabolic patterns of some selected antipsychotics by reviewing therapeutic drug monitoring studies in East Asian populations. The plasma concentrations of haloperidol, clozapine, quetiapine, aripiprazole, and lurasidone, which are metabolized by specific CYP enzymes, were determined to be higher, under the same daily dose, in East Asian populations than in Western populations.

Modelling Age-Related Changes in the Pharmacokinetics of Risperidone and 9-Hydroxyrisperidone in Different CYP2D6 Phenotypes Using a Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Approach. Pharm Res 2020; 37:110. [PMID: 32476097 PMCID: PMC7261739 DOI: 10.1007/s11095-020-02843-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2019] [Accepted: 05/19/2020] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Dose-optimization strategies for risperidone are gaining in importance, especially in the elderly. Based on the genetic polymorphism of cytochrome P 450 (CYP) 2D6 genetically and age-related changes cause differences in the pharmacokinetics of risperidone and 9-hydroxyrisperidone. The goal of the study was to develop physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models for the elderly aged 65+ years. Additionally, CYP2D6 phenotyping using metabolic ratio were applied and different pharmacokinetic parameter for different age classes predicted. METHODS Plasma concentrations of risperidone and 9-hydroxyrisperidone were used to phenotype 17 geriatric inpatients treated under naturalistic conditions. For this purpose, PBPK models were developed to examine age-related changes in the pharmacokinetics between CYP2D6 extensive metabolizer, intermediate metabolizer, poor metabolizer, (PM) and ultra-rapid metabolizer. RESULTS PBPK-based metabolic ratio was able to predict different CYP2D6 phenotypes during steady-state. One inpatient was identified as a potential PM, showing a metabolic ratio of 3.39. About 88.2% of all predicted plasma concentrations of the inpatients were within the 2-fold error range. Overall, age-related changes of the pharmacokinetics in the elderly were mainly observed in Cmax and AUC. Comparing a population of young adults with the oldest-old, Cmax of risperidone increased with 24-44% and for 9-hydroxyrisperidone with 35-37%. CONCLUSIONS Metabolic ratio combined with PBPK modelling can provide a powerful tool to identify potential CYP2D6 PM during therapeutic drug monitoring. Based on genetic, anatomical and physiological changes during aging, PBPK models ultimately support decision-making regarding dose-optimization strategies to ensure the best therapy for each patient over the age of 65 years.

Effect of CYP2D6 genotype on exposure and efficacy of risperidone and aripiprazole: a retrospective, cohort study. Lancet Psychiatry 2019; 6:418-426. [PMID: 31000417 DOI: 10.1016/s2215-0366(19)30088-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 94] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2019] [Revised: 02/23/2019] [Accepted: 02/25/2019] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The polymorphic CYP2D6 enzyme metabolises the antipsychotic drugs risperidone and aripiprazole to their active metabolites, 9OH-risperidone and dehydroaripiprazole. The aim of this study was to quantify the effect of CYP2D6 genetic variability on risperidone and aripiprazole exposure and treatment in a large patient population. METHODS We retrospectively obtained patient data from a routine therapeutic drug monitoring database at the Center for Psychopharmacology, Diakonhjemmet Hospital, Oslo, Norway, between Jan 1, 2005, and Oct 15, 2018. Individuals included in our analyses were CYP2D6-genotyped patients treated with risperidone or aripiprazole. Inclusion criteria for measurement of pharmacokinetic parameters (drug and metabolite serum concentrations) were oral administration of risperidone or aripiprazole, information known about prescribed daily dose and comedications, and aged older than 18 years. Exclusion criteria included polypharmacy with drugs known to be CYP2D6 inhibitors or CYP3A4 inducers or inhibitors. Treatment failure was analysed in all patients treated with risperidone or aripiprazole without these criteria. The first endpoint in our analysis was the metabolism of risperidone to 9OH-risperidone and aripiprazole to dehydroaripiprazole, estimated by the log-transformed ratio between the concentrations of metabolite and parent drug (ie, the metabolic ratio for risperidone [9OH-risperidone]/[risperidone] and the metabolic ratio for aripiprazole [dehydroaripiprazole]/[aripiprazole]). Endpoint two was measurement of drug exposure, quantified by the dose-normalised sum of parent drug and active metabolite serum concentrations (ie, active moiety). The third endpoint of treatment failure was measured as the number of patients switched from risperidone or aripiprazole to another antipsychotic drug within 1 year after the last therapeutic drug monitoring analysis of risperidone or aripiprazole. Patient subgroups were defined by CYP2D6 genotype-determined metaboliser status: poor metabolisers, intermediate metabolisers, normal metabolisers, and ultrarapid metabolisers. ANOVA was used to assess the differences in metabolic ratios, active moieties, and daily doses between individual metaboliser categories, and risperidone and aripiprazole therapeutic failures were compared by logistic regression using the normal metaboliser subgroup as a reference. FINDINGS 1288 risperidone-treated patients and 1334 aripiprazole-treated patients were included in the study, of whom 725 (56%) risperidone-treated and 890 (67%) aripiprazole-treated patients were eligible for the pharmacokinetic analyses. CYP2D6 genotype significantly changed risperidone and aripiprazole metabolism resulting in an approximately 1·6-times and 1·4-times increase in risperidone and aripiprazole active moiety exposure in poor and intermediate metabolisers compared with normal metabolisers, respectively (odds ratios [OR] for the risperidone dose-normalised active moiety concentration 1·568, 95% CI 1·401-1·736, and 1·373, 1·213-1·532; and for the aripiprazole dose-normalised active moiety concentration 1·585, 1·447-1·724, and 1·476, 1·263-1·688, respectively; p<0·0001 for all). Compared with doses for normal metabolisers, clinicians reduced daily doses of risperidone and aripiprazole administered to poor metabolisers by 19% (95% CI 5-35, p=0·010) and 15% (95% CI 1-28, p=0·033) respectively. The incidence of switching from risperidone to another antipsychotic was increased in ultrarapid metabolisers (OR 2·934, 95% CI 1·437-5·989, p=0·003) and poor metabolisers (1·874, 1·128-3·112, p=0·015); by contrast, the incidence of switching from aripiprazole to another antipsychotic was not significantly related to CYP2D6 metaboliser status. INTERPRETATION CYP2D6 genotype had a substantial clinical effect on risperidone and aripiprazole exposure and on the therapeutic failure of risperidone. Pre-emptive CYP2D6 genotyping would be valuable for individualising risperidone and aripiprazole dosing and treatment optimisation.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to disentangle an association between plasma concentrations of risperidone (RIS), its active metabolite 9-hydroxyrisperidone (9-OH-RIS) and the active moiety, AM (RIS + 9-OH-RIS), and clinical response in a naturalistic sample. Plasma concentrations of RIS, 9-OH-RIS and AM in patients out of a therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) database were compared between responders (n = 64) and non-responders (n = 526) using the Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) Scale. Daily dosage of risperidone did not differ between responders and non-responders. Differences for active moiety plasma levels between the two groups did not reach statistical significance. However, responders showed lower plasma concentrations of the parent compound RIS as well as lower metabolic ratios RIS/9-OH-RIS than non-responders (p = 0.017 and p = 0.034). These differences did not remain after controlling for age and baseline symptoms. Furthermore, the cohort was split into two subgroups based on the daily dosage: patients under high (≥6 mg/day) (R H, n = 187) and patients under lower dosages (<6 mg) (R L, n = 403) of risperidone. Differences between responders and non-responders after controlling for demographic and clinical characteristics remained only for plasma concentrations of active moiety in the lower-dose medicated groups; non-responders showed higher active moiety plasma concentrations than responders. Understanding the mechanisms involved and factors associated with the clinical response in patients medicated with antipsychotics is of great interest. Our data imply that clinical response to an antipsychotic treatment cannot be attributed to a single pharmacokinetic pattern. It seems to be rather a complex patchwork of influencing factors such as demographic and clinical characteristics as well as the metabolizer status as surrogate of CYP activity. It seems that the ratio between RIS and 9-OH-RIS may play a crucial role in mediating the clinical effect.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The current study aimed to explore the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) and dopamine receptors with schizophrenia and genetic association with risperidone treatment response. METHODS A total of 690 schizophrenic patients (case group) were selected and 430 healthy people were included as the controls. All patients received risperidone treatment continuously for 8 weeks. Next, peripheral venous blood samples were collected and were subjected to polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism to amplify and genotype the SNPs within COMT and dopamine receptors. Then, correlation analysis was conducted between Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale improvement rates and SNPs within COMT and the dopamine receptor gene. RESULTS The allele of DRD1 rs11749676 (A) emerged as a key element in reducing schizophrenia risk with statistical significance (P<0.001). Remarkably, alleles of COMT rs165774 (G), DRD2 rs6277 (T), and DRD3 rs6280 (C) were associated with raised predisposition to schizophrenia (all P<0.001). Regarding DRD1 rs11746641, DRD1 rs11749676, DRD2 rs6277, and DRD3 rs6280, the case group exhibited a lesser frequency of heterozygotes in comparison with wild homozygotes genotype (all P<0.001). SNPs (COMT rs4680, DRD2 rs6275, DRD2 rs1801028, and DRD2 rs6277) were remarkably associated with improvement rates of PANSS total scores (P<0.05). SNPs (COMT rs165599 and DRD2 rs1801028) were significantly associated with risperidone efficacy on negative symptoms (P<0.05). CONCLUSION COMT SNPs and dopamine receptor SNPs were correlated with prevalence of schizophrenia and risperidone treatment efficacy of schizophrenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Risperidone (RIS) is a widely used atypical antipsychotic drug. We developed and validated a sensitive and accurate LC-MS/MS method, which requires a small-volume of plasma and small-volume injection for measurement of RIS levels in ASD pediatric patients. We also investigated the relationship between RIS levels and RIS dosages, including prolactin levels. METHOD Blood samples were processed by protein precipitation extraction. Only 1 μl of sample was injected. Plasma samples were separated on a C18 column (4.6 cm × 50 mm; 1.8 μm particle size). Detection was by MS-MS with an analytical run time of 6 min. RESULTS The inter-day accuracy of RIS was 101.33-107.68% and 95.24-103.67% for 9-OH-RIS. The inter-day precision of RIS was ≤7.27% CV and ≤7.41% CV for 9-OH-RIS. The extraction recovery of RIS and 9-OH-RIS were 95.01 ± 7.31-112.62 ± 7.50% and 90.27 ± 11.15-114.00 ± 10.35%, respectively. This method was applied in the therapeutic drug monitoring of ASD pediatric patients. Higher RIS dosage has a tendency to produce higher RIS plasma levels. The high RIS plasma levels have a tendency to produce hyperprolactinemia. CONCLUSION The determination of RIS in individual patients might be clinically useful for monitoring and prediction of treatment response.

Abstract
Previous studies on the relationship between plasma levels of new-generation antipsychotics (NGAs) and clinical response did not account for inter- and intra-individual variability in drug levels. Therefore, the present study calculated the ratio of observed versus expected NGA plasma levels and investigated its relationship with changes in the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Data of patients starting monotherapy with a NGA were collected 2, 4, 8, and 12 weeks after initiation of treatment. Next to the assessment of changes in psychopathology (PANSS) the ratio of observed versus expected plasma level was calculated. A total number of 221 ratios were eligible for analysis. About half of them ranged from 0.5-2 and were considered "normal", whereas the others were considered either "too low" or "too high". Psychopathological symptoms improved over the course of treatment, but changes in PANSS from baseline did not correlate significantly with the ratios of observed versus expected plasma levels at any assessment. The lack of linear correlation can be explained by the fact that 92% of the observed NGA plasma levels were at ≥ 50% of the lower limit of the therapeutic reference range, i.e., within the asymptote of the logistic plasma level-effect relationship. Accordingly, our findings indicate that the great majority of patients were treated with NGA doses that led to optimal plasma levels, based on the clinical impression of the treating psychiatrist only. Thus, calculating the ratio of observed versus expected plasma level may not be necessary in a routine clinical setting.

Abstract
Inflammation-mediated changes in drug metabolism may lead to alterations in the absorption, distribution, and clearance of psychotropic drugs and thus elevate drug levels in blood and lead to intoxications. We report about two patients who developed an up to threefold increase of dose-related serum concentrations of risperidone's active moiety (risperidone plus 9-hydroxyrisperidone) during acute inflammation indicated by elevated C-reactive protein. The two female patients (aged 56 and 38 years, respectively) had the diagnoses of paranoid schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. For both patients, there was a close time-dependent parallel fluctuation of drug levels and C-reactive protein. Since elevated drug levels could not be attributed to prescribed comedications, it seemed likely that high-serum concentrations of risperidone were due to inflammation. It is concluded that elevated C-reactive protein should be considered as an indication to control blood levels of risperidone and possibly dose adaption.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonadherence to medication is still a major problem in the treatment of schizophrenia. The current longitudinal study investigated whether the patients' attitudes toward treatment correlated with the ratio of observed vs expected plasma levels of antipsychotic drugs as an objective measurement of adherence. METHODS Data of patients starting monotherapy with a new-generation antipsychotic were collected 2, 4, and 12 weeks after the initiation of treatment. Next to the assessment of patients' attitudes toward medication by means of the Drug Attitude Inventory, the ratio of the observed vs expected plasma level was calculated. Antipsychotic-induced side effects were evaluated by means of the Udvalg for Kliniske Undersogelser Side Effect Rating Scale. RESULTS A total of 93 patients were eligible for statistical analysis. About one-half of the ratios of observed vs expected plasma levels ranged from 0.5 to 2 and were considered normal, whereas the other ratios were considered either too low (<0.5) or too high (>2). No consistent correlation between patients' attitude toward drug therapy and the individual ratios of observed vs expected plasma levels of medication was detected. This finding was not affected by side effects. CONCLUSIONS Our results highlight the importance of recognizing the complex nature of adherence to medication in schizophrenia patients. Importantly, we found no consistent correlation between subjective and objective measures of medication adherence. Therefore, monitoring adherence to medication remains a challenge in clinical practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the relationship between the plasma concentration of paliperidone (PAL) and clinical and drug-induced extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) in elderly patients with schizophrenia. METHODS In this study, 15 patients with schizophrenia receiving risperidone were switched to PAL and treated for 12 weeks. Their clinical symptoms were assessed using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale and the Clinical Global Impression-Severity of Illness Scale. Their EPS were assessed using the Drug-induced EPS Scale, Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale, and Barnes Akathisia Scale at baseline and 12 weeks. Plasma concentrations were measured by the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry method. RESULTS The results revealed that there were significant correlations between the plasma concentration of PAL and improved Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale total, negative, and general psychopathology scores (p<0.05). However, the efficacy did not improve linearly with plasma level. No significant correlations were found between the PAL plasma concentration and the mean change from baseline in the Drug-induced EPS Scale total score, Barnes Akathisia Scale, or Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale. CONCLUSIONS The results of this research suggested that, in elderly patients, although none of an increased plasma concentration of PAL, a worsening of EPS, or an increase in prolactin level occurs, linear clinical efficacy may not be obtained.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This aim of this study was to determine the impact of carbamazepine on the pharmacokinetics of paliperidone. METHODS Six schizophrenic patients initially received a 6-12 mg/d dose of paliperidone alone. Subsequently, a 200 mg/d dose of carbamazepine was administered, and the carbamazepine dose was increased to 400 mg/d and then 600 mg/d. Plasma concentrations of paliperidone before and after carbamazepine coadministration were quantified using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). RESULTS Carbamazepine significantly reduced the plasma concentration of paliperidone. The plasma concentration of paliperidone at baseline and with coadministration of 200, 400, and 600 mg/d were 45.8 ± 11.7, 26.9 ± 13.7, 17.1 ± 8.2, and 15.9 ± 7.6 ng/mL, respectively. The concentration of paliperidone with carbamazepine coadministration at doses of 200, 400, and 600 mg/d were 55.7% ± 20.7%, 36.1% ± 12.2%, and 33.6% ± 10.4%, respectively, of baseline. This effect occurred even at the carbamazepine dose of 200 mg/d and reached a plateau at doses higher than 400 mg/d. However, carbamazepine coadministration exacerbated the psychotic symptoms in some patients. CONCLUSIONS The results of the present study suggest that adjunctive treatment with carbamazepine reduces the concentration of paliperidone in a dose-dependent manner, most likely because of the induction of several drug-metabolizing enzymes and several drug transporters.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of the study is to assess the relationships between plasma concentrations (Cps) of second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) and clinical outcome in order to establish the clinical value of therapeutic drug monitoring. METHOD In April 2012, we searched PubMed and MEDLINE databases for English-language articles using the keywords risperidone, olanzapine, quetiapine, aripiprazole, ziprasidone, paliperidone, iloperidone, asenapine, lurasidone, therapeutic drug monitoring, serum level, and plasma level. One hundred and ninety-one articles were retrieved from the initial search. Articles were selected for inclusion if they involved an attempt to correlate Cps with efficacy measures, if they were prospective in nature, and if they examined patients experiencing an acute exacerbation of a psychotic illness. Ultimately 11 articles were selected. RESULTS Of the nine compounds involved in the search, only four were included in relevant articles, and only two of these were involved in multiple trials. No studies involving the most recently developed compounds (paliperidone, iloperidone, asenapine, and lurasidone) were identified. Studies varied widely in methodology, with only four studies adopting a fixed-dose model. Results differed considerably between studies regarding both clinical and adverse effects, with 6 of the 11 studies revealing a positive correlation between Cps and response. CONCLUSIONS The utility of therapeutic drug monitoring of SGAs (other than clozapine) remains an open question, although limited evidence from fixed-dose studies is encouraging. We discuss the potentially significant clinical value of antipsychotic Cps and the consequent need for further research in this area.

Abstract
9-Hydroxyrisperidone (9-OH-RIS) is an active metabolite of the antipsychotic drug risperidone (RIS). The total active moiety level, in other words the sum of the RIS and 9-OH-RIS serum levels, may be important for estimating the clinical effects of RIS treatment. However, there have been no consistent results reported regarding the relationship between cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 or adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette subfamily B member 1 (ABCB1) variant alleles and 9-OH-RIS or total active moiety plasma levels. Seventy-four Japanese patients treated with RIS were examined in the present study. Steady-state plasma RIS and 9-OH-RIS were measured. The CYP2D6*5, CYP2D6*10, ABCB1 3435C>T, and ABCB1 2677G>T/A genotypes were detected. Multiple regression analysis showed that the dose-corrected plasma RIS levels were significantly correlated with the number of CYP2D6 variant alleles and ABCB1 3435C>T genotypes, whereas the 9-OH-RIS and total active moiety levels were significantly correlated with the ABCB1 3435C>T genotypes and with age. On the other hand, the ABCB1 2677G>T/A genotypes did not affect plasma RIS, 9-OH-RIS, or total active moiety levels. The ABCB1 3435C>T genetic polymorphism may predict plasma 9-OH-RIS and total active moiety levels.

Abstract
Bipolar disorder is a complex, multidimensional illness that is often difficult to treat. Unfortunately, bipolar patients are much more likely to experience depression, which is all too often severe and a potentially lethal phase of the illness. In addition, pharmacotherapies with strong evidence for bipolar depression are limited. Most treatments are based on unsupported extrapolation from the treatment of unipolar depression or are derived largely from the clinical practice experience. In this article, we focus on the treatment of bipolar depression, with particular focus on evidence from the existing literature, to help guide readers in clinical practice.

Comparing the influence of dopamine D₂ polymorphisms and plasma drug concentrations on the clinical response to risperidone. J Clin Psychopharmacol 2011; 31:633-7.

Abstract
Although several studies have reported that dopamine D₂ receptor (DRD2) polymorphisms affect the therapeutic efficacy of antipsychotics, other studies have suggested that the plasma drug concentration is related to the clinical response. Currently, there are no definitive data regarding which factor has greater clinical significance. Sixty patients with acute exacerbations of schizophrenia received 6 mg/d of risperidone for 4 weeks. Clinical evaluations using the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale and the Udvalg for Klinicke Undersøgelser Side Effect Rating Scale were performed before and after administration of risperidone. TaqI A and -141C Ins/Del polymorphisms were determined, and the plasma concentrations of risperidone and 9-hydroxyrisperidone were measured. The TaqI A polymorphism had no effect on therapeutic efficacy, but the -141C Ins/Del polymorphism was associated with an improvement in positive symptoms. In addition, the plasma concentration of the active moiety (risperidone plus 9-hydroxyrisperidone) correlated with the improvement in the total Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale score as well as with positive symptoms. Although there were no associations between DRD2 polymorphisms and psychic adverse effects, the plasma drug concentration was associated with psychic adverse effects. These findings suggest that DRD2 polymorphisms are associated with the therapeutic effects of risperidone as they relate to positive symptoms and that plasma drug concentrations are associated with overall symptoms as well as excitement and cognitive symptoms. Both the genotyping of DRD2 and the monitoring of plasma drug concentrations may be useful for improving clinically dominant symptoms. Further work involving replication in a larger sample is required to support our findings.

A population pharmacokinetic evaluation of the influence of CYP2D6 genotype on risperidone metabolism in patients with acute episode of schizophrenia. Eur J Pharm Sci 2010; 41:289-98. [PMID: 20599499 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2010.06.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2010] [Revised: 06/02/2010] [Accepted: 06/24/2010] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this prospective study was to characterize the metabolism of risperidone to (+)- and (-)-9-hydroxyrisperidone in vivo and to evaluate the influence of CYP2D6 genotype. A population pharmacokinetic modeling approach was used to estimate the interindividual variability of the pharmacokinetic parameters in 50 hospitalized patients with acute episode of schizophrenia. CYP2D6 genotype remarkably influenced the formation clearances of the risperidone metabolites, while creatinine clearance was related to the plasma clearance of 9-hydroxyrisperidone. CYP2D6 genotype was also associated with the average plasma concentration of risperidone active moiety (a sum of all three active compounds). In comparison to the patients with CYP2D6*1/*1 genotype, average steady-state plasma concentration of risperidone active moiety was 3.3- and 1.6-fold higher in poor metabolizers (both alleles nonfunctional; CYP2D6*3 or *4) and intermediate metabolizers (one nonfunctional allele and one allele for diminished enzyme activity; CYP2D6*10 or *41), respectively. Additionally, average plasma concentration of risperidone active moiety was higher in the patients with dystonia (p=0.0066) and parkinsonism (p=0.046). The results of this study imply the potential role of CYP2D6 genotyping in personalizing risperidone therapy in patients with schizophrenia to reduce the incidence of adverse extrapyramidal symptoms.
