Assessing the ability of the Cancer and Aging Research Group tool to predict chemotherapy toxicity in older Japanese patients: A prospective observational study. J Geriatr Oncol 2024; 15:101814. [PMID: 38851083 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgo.2024.101814] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2024] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/10/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Cancer and Aging Research Group (CARG) prediction tool was designed in the United States to predict grade ≥ 3 chemotherapy-related adverse events (CRAE) in older patients. However, its usefulness among Japanese people, who have different sensitivities to anticancer drugs and life expectancy, remains unknown. We aimed to prospectively evaluate the utility of the CARG tool for predicting severe CRAE in older Japanese patients with cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients with solid tumors aged 65 years and older who commenced anticancer drug regimens from April 2018 to October 2020 were divided into three groups (low, medium, and high-risk) based on their CARG risk scores. Toxicity was prospectively observed by a pharmacist. The primary objective was to evaluate the correlation between the incidence of grade ≥ 3 CRAE and the CARG risk score. The secondary objective was to evaluate hematological and non-hematological toxicities. CRAE incidence was compared among the three groups using a closed testing procedure: (1) Cochran-Armitage test for trend and (2) chi-square test for paired comparison. RESULTS The patients (N = 165) had a median age of 71 years (range: 65-89 years). CRAE in patients divided into low-, medium-, and high-risk groups, based on CARG risk scores, were 39%, 55%, and 82%, respectively (low vs high; p < 0.001, medium vs high; p < 0.01). The incidence of severe hematologic toxicity was 37%, 35%, and 50% in the low-, medium-, and high-risk groups, respectively; the incidence of severe non-hematologic toxicity was 15%, 36%, and 65%, respectively (low vs medium; p < 0.01, low vs high; p < 0.001, and medium vs high; p < 0.01). DISCUSSION To our knowledge, this is the first prospective observational study to validate the CARG prediction tool in older Japanese patients with cancer. The CARG risk score may be effective in predicting the development of non-hematologic toxicities. These results should be considered when administering chemotherapy to older Japanese patients with advanced solid tumors.

Evaluating gender effect in the generic bioequivalence studies by physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling - A case study of dextromethorphan modified release tablets. Biopharm Drug Dispos 2024. [PMID: 38776407 DOI: 10.1002/bdd.2389] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 03/28/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
The United States Food and Drug Administration guidelines for the bioequivalence (BE) testing of the generic drug products suggests that there should be an equal proportion of male and female population in the BE study. Despite this requirement, many generic drug companies do not maintain the suggested proportion of female population in their studies. Several socio-economic and cultural factors lead to lower participation of the females in the BE studies. More recently, the regulatory agencies across the globe are requesting the generic drug companies to demonstrate the performance of their drug products in the under-represented sex via additional studies. In this work, we describe the case of Dextromethorphan modified release tablets where the gender effect on the product performance was evaluated by physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling approach. We have compared the drug product's performance by population simulations considering four different scenarios. The data from all-male population (from in house Pharmacokinetic [PK] BE studies) was considered as a reference and other scenarios were compared against the all-male population data. In the first scenario, we made a comparison between all-male (100% male) vs all-female (100% female) population. Second scenario was as per agency's requirements-equal proportion of male and female in the BE study. As an extreme scenario, 100% male vs 30:70 male:female was considered (higher females than males in the BE studies). Finally, as a more realistic scenario, 100% male versus 70:30 male:female was considered (lower females than males in the BE studies). Population PK followed by virtual BE was employed to demonstrate the similarity/differences in the drug product performance between the sexes. This approach can be potentially utilized to seek BE study waivers thus saving cost and accelerating the entry of the generic products to the market.

Abstract
Objectives Codeine, a prodrug used as an opioid agonist, is metabolized to the active product morphine by CYP2D6. This study aimed to establish physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models of codeine and morphine and explore the influence of CYP2D6 genetic polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics of codeine and morphine. Methods An initial PBPK modeling of codeine in healthy adults was established using PK-Sim® software and subsequently extrapolated to CYP2D6 phenotype-related PBPK modeling based on the turnover frequency (Kcat) of CYP2D6 for different phenotype populations (UM, EM, IM, and PM). The mean fold error (MFE) and geometric mean fold error (GMFE) methods were used to compare the differences between the predicted and observed values of the pharmacokinetic parameters to evaluate the accuracy of PBPK modeling. The validated models were then used to support dose safety for different CYP2D6 phenotypes. Results The developed and validated CYP2D6 phenotype-related PBPK model successfully predicted codeine and morphine dispositions in different CYP2D6 phenotypes. Compared with EMs, the predicted AUC0-∞ value of morphine was 98.6% lower in PMs, 60.84% lower in IMs, and 73.43% higher in UMs. Morphine plasma exposure in IMs administered 80 mg of codeine was roughly comparable to that in EMs administered 30 mg of codeine. CYP2D6 UMs may start dose titration to achieve an optimal individual regimen and avoid a single dose of over 20 mg. Codeine should not be used in PMs for pain relief, considering its insufficient efficacy. Conclusion PBPK modeling can be applied to explore the dosing safety of codeine and can be helpful in predicting the effect of CYP2D6 genetic polymorphisms on drug-drug interactions (DDIs) with codeine in the future.

Abstract
Molecular autopsy is a very important tool in forensic toxicology. However, many determinants, such as co-medication and physiological parameters, should be considered for optimal results. These determinants could cause phenoconversion (PC), a discrepancy between the real metabolic profile after phenoconversion and the phenotype determined by the genotype. This study's objective was to assess the PC of drug-metabolizing enzymes, namely CYP2D6, 2C19, and 3A4, in 45 post-mortem cases where medications that are substrates, inducers, or inhibitors of these enzymes were detected. It also intended to evaluate how PC affected the drug's metabolic ratio (MR) in four cases. Blood samples from 45 cases of drug-related deaths were analyzed to detect and determine drug and metabolite concentrations. Moreover, all the samples underwent genotyping utilizing the HaloPlex Target Enrichment System for CYP2D6, 2C19, and 3A4. The results of the present study revealed a statistically significant rate of PC for the three investigated enzymes, with a higher frequency of poor metabolizers after PC. A compatibility was seen between the results of the genomic evaluation after PC and the observed MRs of venlafaxine, citalopram, and fentanyl. This leads us to focus on the determinants causing PC that may be mainly induced by drug interactions. This complex phenomenon can have a significant impact on the analysis, interpretation of genotypes, and accurate conclusions in forensic toxicology. Nevertheless, more research with more cases in the future is needed to confirm these results.

Abstract
AIMS Previously, retinoids have decreased CYP2D6 mRNA expression in vitro and induced CYP3A4 in vitro and in vivo. This study aimed to determine whether isotretinoin administration changes CYP2D6 and CYP3A activities in patients with severe acne. METHODS Thirty-three patients (22 females and 11 males, 23.5 ± 6.0 years old) expected to receive isotretinoin treatment completed the study. All participants were genotyped for CYP2D6 and CYP3A5. Participants received dextromethorphan (DM) 30 mg orally as a dual-probe substrate of CYP2D6 and CYP3A activity at two study timepoints: pre-isotretinoin treatment and with isotretinoin for at least 1 week. The concentrations of isotretinoin, DM and their metabolites were measured in 2-h postdose plasma samples and in cumulative 0-4-h urine collections using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. RESULTS In CYP2D6 extensive metabolizers, the urinary dextrorphan (DX)/DM metabolic ratio (MR) (CYP2D6 activity marker) was numerically, but not significantly, lower with isotretinoin administration compared to pre-isotretinoin (geometric mean ratio [GMR] [90% confidence interval (CI)] 0.78 [0.55, 1.11]). The urinary 3-hydroxymorphinan (3HM)/DX MR (CYP3A activity marker) was increased (GMR 1.18 [1.03, 1.35]) and the urinary DX-O-glucuronide/DX MR (proposed UGT2B marker) was increased (GMR 1.22 [1.06, 1.39]) with isotretinoin administration compared to pre-isotretinoin. CONCLUSIONS Administration of isotretinoin did not significantly reduce CYP2D6 activity in extensive metabolizers, suggesting that the predicted downregulation of CYP2D6 based on in vitro data does not translate into humans. We observed a modest increase in CYP3A activity (predominantly CYP3A4) with isotretinoin treatment. The data also suggest that DX glucuronidation is increased following isotretinoin administration.

Abstract
Introduction Pharmacogenetics currently supports clinical decision-making on the basis of a limited number of variants in a few genes and may benefit paediatric prescribing where there is a need for more precise dosing. Integrating genomic information such as methylation into pharmacogenetic models holds the potential to improve their accuracy and consequently prescribing decisions. Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) is a highly polymorphic gene conventionally associated with the metabolism of commonly used drugs and endogenous substrates. We thus sought to predict epigenetic loci from single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) related to CYP2D6 in children from the GUSTO cohort. Methods Buffy coat DNA methylation was quantified using the Illumina Infinium Methylation EPIC beadchip. CpG sites associated with CYP2D6 were used as outcome variables in Linear Regression, Elastic Net and XGBoost models. We compared feature selection of SNPs from GWAS mQTLs, GTEx eQTLs and SNPs within 2 MB of the CYP2D6 gene and the impact of adding demographic data. The samples were split into training (75%) sets and test (25%) sets for validation. In Elastic Net model and XGBoost models, optimal hyperparameter search was done using 10-fold cross validation. Root Mean Square Error and R-squared values were obtained to investigate each models' performance. When GWAS was performed to determine SNPs associated with CpG sites, a total of 15 SNPs were identified where several SNPs appeared to influence multiple CpG sites. Results Overall, Elastic Net models of genetic features appeared to perform marginally better than heritability estimates and substantially better than Linear Regression and XGBoost models. The addition of nongenetic features appeared to improve performance for some but not all feature sets and probes. The best feature set and Machine Learning (ML) approach differed substantially between CpG sites and a number of top variables were identified for each model. Discussion The development of SNP-based prediction models for CYP2D6 CpG methylation in Singaporean children of varying ethnicities in this study has clinical application. With further validation, they may add to the set of tools available to improve precision medicine and pharmacogenetics-based dosing.

Abstract
Background: Tramadol is primarily metabolized by the highly polymorphic CYP2D6 enzyme, leading to a large spectrum of adverse events and clinical response. Ample evidence pointed a reduced CYPD26 activity score in individuals harboring the CYP2D6*10/*10 genotype, nevertheless, there is scarce studies on the impact of CYP2D6*10/*10 genetic polymorphism on long-term tramadol's adverse effects. Aim: To test the correlation between CYP2D6*10/*10 expression and the risk for tramadol-associated adverse effects. Method: Using a database of Leumit Healthcare Services in Israel, we retrospectively assessed the occurrence of adverse events in patients who were prescribed tramadol. A binary logistic regression model was applied to model the relationship between CYP2D6*10/*10 genotype and the occurrence of adverse effects. Results: Data from four hundred ninety-three patients were included in this study. Only 25 (5.1%) patients were heterozygous for the CYP2D6*10 variant, while 56 patients (11%) were tested positive to the CYP2D6*10/*10 genotype. Compared to carriers of other variants, patients with the CYP2D6*10/*10 variant exhibited a higher occurrence of adverse events (odds ratio [OR] = 6.14, 95% confidence interval 3.18-11.83); the odds ratio for central nervous system adverse events and gastrointestinal adverse events were 5.13 (95% CI 2.84-9.28), and 3.25 (95% CI 1.78-5.93), respectively. Conclusion: Among the different CYP2D6 genotypes, CYP2D6*10/*10 genotype carries the higher risk of tramadol related adverse events. Appreciating the frequency of this specific allele it seems prudent to pharmacogenetically screen patients considered for long term tramadol treatment for better tolerability and efficacy outcomes.

Boun SS, Omonaiye O, Yaya S. Prevalence and health consequences of nonmedical use of tramadol in Africa: A systematic scoping review. PLOS GLOBAL PUBLIC HEALTH 2024; 4:e0002784. [PMID: 38236813 PMCID: PMC10796000 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgph.0002784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2024]
Abstract
Tramadol is a widely prescribed painkiller around the world. As a synthetic opioid, it offers a valuable substitute for morphine and its derivatives in African countries. However, the adverse health effects of tramadol use resulting from illicit trafficking, like those caused by fentanyl and methadone in North America, have not been well-documented in Africa. This scoping review aims to shed light on the nature and scope of the nonmedical use (NMU) of tramadol in Africa and its associated health consequences. To carry out our scoping review, we used Arksey and O'Malley's (2005) five-step approach for exploratory analysis and followed Joanna Briggs Institute guidelines for scoping reviews to ensure systematic and replicable studies. We then searched six databases: Medline, Global Health (EBSCO), Scopus, Web of Science, the African Journals online database, and for grey literature via Google Scholar without any time restriction. The articles were imported into Covidence and reviewed by two independent researchers. Eighty-three studies on NMU of tramadol's prevalence or health consequences were selected from 532 titles/abstracts screened, including 60 cross-sectional and six qualitative studies from 10 African countries. Findings from the included studies highlighted five distinct groups significantly affected by the NMU of tramadol. These groups include: 1) young adults/active populations with varying degrees of prevalence ranging from 1.9% to 77.04%, 2) professionals, where drivers exhibit a relatively high prevalence of tramadol NMU, ranging from 7.2% to 35.1%, and commercial motorcyclists, with a prevalence of 76%, 3) patients, who have a high rate of tramadol NMUs, with prevalence rates ranging from 77.1% to 92%, 4) academics, with a considerable rate of tramadol misuse among substance-using undergraduates (74.2%) and substance-using high school students (83.3%), and 5) other individuals impacted in various ways. The health consequences are classified into four distinct types: intoxication, dependence syndrome, withdrawal syndrome and other symptoms. Despite providing a comprehensive global overview of the phenomenon described in the African literature, this systematic scoping review's main limitations stem from the relatively limited exploration of various consequences of the NMU of tramadol, notably those of a social and economic nature. Our review shows that tramadol misuse affects diverse populations in Africa. The prevalence of misuse varies within sub-populations, indicating the complexity of the issue. Professional and academic groups have different rates of misuse across regions. This highlights the need for targeted interventions to address unique challenges contributing to tramadol misuse. Future studies should focus on the social and economic costs of abuse on households to better understand the impact on well-being.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To analyze the factors affecting the concentrations of the active moiety of risperidone (RIS) and its active metabolite 9-hydroxyrisperidone (9-OH-RIS) in psychiatric outpatients taking immediate-release formulations. METHODS This is a retrospective study on the therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) data regarding RIS and 9-OH-RIS in adult psychiatric outpatients. TDM data with simultaneous RIS and 9-OH-RIS monitoring from March 2018 to February 2020 and relevant medical records (including dosage, dosage form, sex, age, diagnosis, combined medication, and comorbid disease) from 399 adult psychiatric outpatients (223 males and 176 females) were included in this study. RESULTS The daily dose of RIS was 5.56 ± 2.05 mg, the concentration of total active moiety was 42.35 ± 25.46 ng/mL, and the dose-adjusted plasma concentration (C/D) of active moiety was 7.83 ± 3.87 (ng/ml)/(mg/day). Dose, sex, and age were identified as important factors influencing concentrations of RIS and 9-OH-RIS in adult psychiatric outpatients. CONCLUSIONS Individualized medication adjustments should be made according to the specific conditions of psychiatric outpatients. The findings strongly support the use of TDM to guide dosing decisions in psychiatric outpatients taking RIS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognostic significance of CDC42 effector protein 2 (CDC42EP2) and its association with tumor-infiltrating immune cells (TIICs) have not been explored in liver hepatocellular carcinoma (LIHC). This study aims to assess the potential prognostic value of CDC42EP2 by conducting a comprehensive analysis of online databases pertaining to LIHC. METHODS We evaluated the potential of CDC42EP2 as a prognostic biomarker by utilizing online databases such as TIMER, GEPIA2, KM, OSlihc, HPA, and LinkedOmics. RESULTS In LIHC, we observed that the mRNA and protein expression of CDC42EP2 were upregulated compared to normal tissues. Upregulated CDC42EP2 expression was associated with a worse prognosis based on the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with LIHC. Furthermore, CDC42EP2 was positively associated with TIICs. In the co-expression and functional enrichment analyses of CDC42EP2, 11,416 genes showed positive associations with CDC42EP2 while 8,008 genes showed negative associations. CDC42EP2-related co-expression genes were involved in protein localization to the endoplasmic reticulum, translational initiation, and RNA catabolic processes in gene set enrichment analysis-Gene Ontology (GSEAGO), and regulated the ribosome, spliceosome, and primary immune deficiency in the GSEAKyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway. In a survival map, 23 and 17 genes that exhibited positive associations with CDC42EP2 showed a significant hazard ratio (HR) for overall survival and disease-free survival, respectively. CONCLUSION Our findings demonstrated that CDC42EP2 is a novel prognostic biomarker and a potential tumor immune therapeutic target in patients with LIHC.

Genotype-guided new approach for dose optimisation of hydroxychloroquine administration in Chinese patients with SLE. Lupus Sci Med 2023; 10:e000997. [PMID: 37993281 PMCID: PMC10668244 DOI: 10.1136/lupus-2023-000997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/03/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The study aims to investigate the impact of gene polymorphisms on blood hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) concentrations in patients with SLE and provide guidelines for individualised care. METHODS 489 Chinese patients with SLE taking HCQ for more than 3 months were collected in this study. The blood HCQ, desethylhydroxychloroquine (DHCQ) and desethylchloroquine concentrations were measured. The optimal blood concentration of HCQ was determined by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Single nucleotide polymorphisms of metabolic enzymes involved in HCQ metabolism were genotyped and the associations with treatment effects were investigated. RESULTS The cut-off value of HCQ was 559.67 ng/mL, with sensitivity and specificity values of 0.51 and 0.89, respectively. The TC and CC genotypes of CYP2C8 (rs7910936) were significantly related to the increase in blood HCQ concentrations, and the CYP2C8 (rs10882521) TT genotype was associated with lower blood HCQ concentrations. The DHCQ:HCQ ratio was highest in patients with the GG genotype of the CYP2D6*10 (rs1065852) polymorphism and lowest in those with the AA genotype. Patients with the CYP2C8 (rs7910936) CC genotype were more likely to achieve the optimal blood concentration (p=0.030) in HCQ 200 mg/day group and patients with the CYP2D6*10 (rs1065852) GG genotype were more likely to reach the optimal blood concentration (p=0.049) in 400 mg/day group. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that the optimal blood concentration of HCQ measured approximately 12-18 hours after the last dosage may be between 500 and 600 ng/mL in Chinese patients with SLE. The observed variations in HCQ concentrations between individuals can potentially be attributed to genetic polymorphisms in CYP2D6*10 (rs1065852) and CYP2C8 (rs7910936 and rs10882521). Genotypical testing of patients and regular monitoring of blood levels are recommended for optimising HCQ dosage management in Chinese patients with SLE. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ChiCTR2300070628.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Tachycardia is a common cardiovascular disease. Drugs blocking β1-adrenergic receptors (ADRB1) are used in the therapy of arrhythmogenic heart diseases. Disease-related polymorphisms can be observed within the ADRB1 gene. The two most important are Ser49Gly and Arg389Gly, and they influence the treatment efficacy. The family of the cytochrome P450 system consists of the isoenzyme CYP2D6 (Debrisoquine 4-hydroxylase), which is involved in phase I metabolism of almost 25% of clinically important drugs, including antiarrhythmic drugs. A study was conducted to detect the ADRB1 and CYP2D6 gene polymorphisms. Materials and Methods: The material for the test was whole blood from 30 patients with ventricular and supraventricular tachycardia and 20 controls. The samples were obtained from the Department of Pediatric Cardiology. The first to be made was the extraction of DNA using a GeneMATRIX Quick Blood DNA Purification Kit from EURx. The selected ADRB1 and CYP2D6 gene polymorphisms were detected by high-resolution melting polymerase chain reaction (HRM-PCR) analysis. Results: Based on the analysis of melt profile data for each PCR product, the identification of polymorphisms was carried out. Heterozygotes and homozygotes were found in the examined alleles. Conclusions: The frequency of the Arg389Gly polymorphism differs statistically significantly between the control group and patients with supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias, as well as between these two groups of patients. Moreover, the Arg389Gly polymorphism was statistically more prevalent in the group of girls with SVT arrhythmia compared to girls with VT. A few carriers of homozygous and heterozygous systems of the S49G polymorphism were detected among patients with arrhythmias, as well as control group. The percentage of individuals carrying the CYP2D6 4 allele as either homozygous or heterozygous was observed in the study and control groups. The high prevalence of the CYP2D6*4 allele carriers in both groups prompts the optimization of beta-1 blocker therapy.

Abstract
Awareness of drug interactions involving opioids is critical for patient treatment as they are common therapeutics used in numerous care settings, including both chronic and disease-related pain. Not only do opioids have narrow therapeutic indexes and are extensively used, but they have the potential to cause severe toxicity. Opioids are the classical pain treatment for patients who suffer from moderate to severe pain. More importantly, opioids are often prescribed in combination with multiple other drugs, especially in patient populations who typically are prescribed a large drug regimen. This review focuses on the current knowledge of common opioid drug-drug interactions (DDIs), focusing specifically on hydrocodone, oxycodone, and morphine DDIs. The DDIs covered in this review include pharmacokinetic DDI arising from enzyme inhibition or induction, primarily due to inhibition of cytochrome p450 enzymes (CYPs). However, opioids such as morphine are metabolized by uridine-5'-diphosphoglucuronosyltransferases (UGTs), principally UGT2B7, and glucuronidation is another important pathway for opioid-drug interactions. This review also covers several pharmacodynamic DDI studies as well as the basics of CYP and UGT metabolism, including detailed opioid metabolism and the potential involvement of metabolizing enzyme gene variation in DDI. Based upon the current literature, further studies are needed to fully investigate and describe the DDI potential with opioids in pain and related disease settings to improve clinical outcomes for patients. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: A review of the literature focusing on drug-drug interactions involving opioids is important because they can be toxic and potentially lethal, occurring through pharmacodynamic interactions as well as pharmacokinetic interactions occurring through inhibition or induction of drug metabolism.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION: As humankind ventures further into the depths of space, planning is already underway for long-duration exploration missions that will test the bounds of human performance. Deep space travel will include added risk related to stressors from the isolated, confined, and extreme environment that lies outside the boundaries of low Earth orbit. Currently, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are considered the standard of care for many mental health diagnoses, including anxiety and depression; however, SSRIs are also associated with several undesired side effects. The utility of nonpharmacological therapies for the management of behavioral health conditions has not yet been fully explored.METHODS: A comprehensive literature search was performed using PubMed. Relevant articles pertaining to the psychological impacts of isolated, confined, and extreme environments, use of SSRIs in spaceflight, side effects associated with SSRIs, and nonpharmacological treatments for anxiety and depression were reviewed. Over 70 studies were reviewed in total.RESULTS: Reduced bone mineral density, impaired hemostatic function, significant individual variability resulting from gene polymorphisms, and drug-drug interactions are well described adverse effects of SSRIs that may complicate their operational use in the deep space environment. Four alternative therapies for the treatment of anxiety and depression may show promise for long duration missions.DISCUSSION: Although SSRIs have long been considered standard of care treatment for many behavioral health conditions, we cannot trivialize the risk that prolonged pharmacological therapy may pose. The need to mitigate these risks by exploring alternative therapies has never been more relevant.El-Khoury BB, Ray KL, Altchuler SI, Reichard JF, Dukes CH.

CYP1A2 expression rather than genotype is associated with olanzapine concentration in psychiatric patients. Sci Rep 2023; 13:18507.

Abstract
Olanzapine is a commonly prescribed atypical antipsychotic agent for treatment of patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorders. Previous in vitro studies using human liver microsomes identified CYP1A2 and CYP2D6 enzymes being responsible for CYP-mediated metabolism of olanzapine. The present work focused on the impact of CYP1A2 and CYP2D6 genetic polymorphisms as well as of CYP1A2 metabolizing capacity influenced by non-genetic factors (sex, age, smoking) on olanzapine blood concentration in patients with psychiatric disorders (N = 139). CYP2D6 genotype-based phenotype appeared to have negligible contribution to olanzapine metabolism, whereas a dominant role of CYP1A2 in olanzapine exposure was confirmed. However, CYP1A2 expression rather than CYP1A2 genetic variability was demonstrated to be associated with olanzapine concentration in patients. Significant contribution of - 163C > A (rs762551), the most common SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) in CYP1A2 gene, to enhanced inducibility was confirmed by an increase in CYP1A2 mRNA expression in smokers carrying - 163A, and smoking was found to have appreciable impact on olanzapine concentration normalized by the dose/bodyweight. Furthermore, patients' olanzapine exposure was in strong association with CYP1A2 expression; therefore, assaying CYP1A2 mRNA level in leukocytes can be an appropriate tool for the estimation of patients' olanzapine metabolizing capacity and may be relevant in optimizing olanzapine dosage.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Atorvastatin is regarded as the most frequently prescribed statin worldwide for dyslipidemia. However, clinical response and risk of adverse effects to statin therapy are associated with genetic variations. Numerous research linked statins pharmacokinetics (PK) variations to genetic polymorphisms in cytochromes P450 (CYPs) metabolic enzymes. OBJECTIVE This article reviews the association between CYP3A4/5 genetic variations and response to atorvastatin therapy globally, which includes atorvastatin PK, and the risk for adverse reactions, with a hint to the Egyptians. METHODS Up to March 30, 2022, electronic medical databases like PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and Egyptian Knowledge Bank (EKB) were searched. All articles that highlighted the relationship between CYP3A4/5 genetic polymorphisms and atorvastatin efficacy/safety profile were included in this review. RESULTS Initially, 492 articles were retrieved after an exhaustive search. There were 24 articles included according to the inclusion criteria. Findings of association studies of CYP3A4/5 genetic polymorphisms with response to atorvastatin varied among different ethnicities. CYP3A4*1B was associated with better therapeutic outcomes after atorvastatin therapy in Chileans and vice versa in Americans. Caucasians with myalgia while using atorvastatin were at significant risk of suffering severe muscle damage if they were carriers of CYP3A5*3/*3. As far as we can report for the Egyptian population, the impact of CYP3A4/5 genetic variations on the response to atorvastatin therapy was understudied. CONCLUSION More pharmacogenetic studies amongst diverse populations worldwide, like the Egyptian population, are necessary to detect further atorvastatin-gene interactions.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:1227. [PMID: 37765034 PMCID: PMC10537526 DOI: 10.3390/ph16091227] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2023] [Revised: 08/20/2023] [Accepted: 08/28/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Following the contraindication of codeine use in children, increasing use of tramadol has been observed in pain management protocols. However, tramadol's pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics are influenced by cytochrome P450 (CYP)2D6 activity, similarly to codeine. Previous studies in adults have demonstrated a correlation between pupillary response and tramadol PK. Our objective was to evaluate pupillometry as a phenotyping method to assess CYP2D6 activity in children treated with tramadol. We included 41 children (mean age 11 years) receiving a first dose of tramadol (2 mg/kg) in the emergency room (ER) as part of their routine care. CYP2D6 phenotyping and genotyping were performed. The concentrations of tramadol and its active metabolite, M1, were measured, and static and dynamic pupillometry was conducted using a handheld pupillometer at the time of tramadol administration and during the ER stay. Pupillometric measurements were obtained for 37 children. Tramadol affected pupillary parameters, with a decrease in pupil diameter in 83.8% of children (p = 0.002) (mean decrease 14.1 ± 16.7%) and a decrease in reflex amplitude constriction in 78.4% (p = 0.011) (mean decrease 17.7 ± 34.5%) at T150 compared to T0. We were unable to identify a correlation between pupillometry measurements and CYP2D6 activity. Likely confounding factors include light intensity, pain, and stress, making the procedure less feasible in paediatric emergency settings.

Therapeutic Drug Monitoring in Children and Adolescents: Findings on Fluoxetine from the TDM-VIGIL Trial. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:2202. [PMID: 37765171 PMCID: PMC10534581 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15092202] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 08/19/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Fluoxetine is the recommended first-line antidepressant in many therapeutic guidelines for children and adolescents. However, little is known about the relationships between drug dose and serum level as well as the therapeutic serum reference range in this age group. Within a large naturalistic observational prospective multicenter clinical trial ("TDM-VIGIL"), a transdiagnostic sample of children and adolescents (n = 138; mean age, 15; range, 7-18 years; 24.6% males) was treated with fluoxetine (10-40 mg/day). Analyses of both the last timepoint and all timepoints (n = 292 observations), utilizing (multiple) linear regressions, linear mixed-effect models, and cumulative link (mixed) models, were used to test the associations between dose, serum concentration, outcome, and potential predictors. The receiver operating curve and first to third interquartile methods, respectively, were used to examine concentration cutoff and reference values for responders. A strong positive relationship was found between dose and serum concentration of fluoxetine and its metabolite. Higher body weight was associated with lower serum concentrations, and female sex was associated with lower therapeutic response. The preliminary reference ranges for the active moiety (fluoxetine+norfluoxetine) were 208-328 ng/mL (transdiagnostically) and 201.5-306 ng/mL (depression). Most patients showed marked (45.6%) or minimal (43.5%) improvements and reported no adverse effects (64.9%). This study demonstrated a clear linear dose-serum level relationship for fluoxetine in youth, with the identified reference range being within that established for adults.

Prophylactic treatment of dacomitinib-induced skin toxicities in epidermal growth factor receptor-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer: A multicenter, Phase II trial. Cancer Med 2023; 12:15117-15127. [PMID: 37269194 PMCID: PMC10417098 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.6184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2023] [Revised: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dacomitinib significantly improves progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) compared with gefitinib in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-activating mutations. However, dacomitinib often causes skin toxicities, resulting in treatment discontinuation. We aimed to evaluate a prophylactic strategy for skin toxicity induced by dacomitinib. METHODS We performed a single-arm, prospective, open-label, multi-institutional phase II trial for comprehensive skin toxicity prophylaxis. Patients with NSCLC harboring EGFR-activating mutations were enrolled and received dacomitinib with comprehensive prophylaxis. The primary endpoint was the incidence of skin toxicity (Grade ≥2) in the initial 8 weeks. RESULTS In total, 41 Japanese patients participated between May 2019 and April 2021 from 14 institutions (median age 70 years; range: 32-83 years), 20 were male, and 36 had a performance status of 0-1. Nineteen patients had exon 19 deletions and L858R mutation. More than 90% of patients were perfectly compliant with prophylactic minocycline administration. Skin toxicities (Grade ≥2) occurred in 43.9% of patients (90% confidence interval [CI], 31.2%-56.7%). The most frequent skin toxicity was acneiform rash in 11 patients (26.8%), followed by paronychia in five patients (12.2%). Due to skin toxicities, eight patients (19.5%) received reduced doses of dacomitinib. The median progression-free survival was 6.8 months (95% CI, 4.0-8.6 months) and median OS was 21.6 months (95% CI, 17.0 months-not reached). CONCLUSION Although the prophylactic strategy was ineffective, the adherence to prophylactic medication was quite good. Patient education regarding prophylaxis is important and can lead to improved treatment continuity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pharmacogenomic testing guided treatment have been developed to guide drug selection or conversion in major depressive disorder patients. Whether patients benefit from pharmacogenetic testing remains unclear. We aim to evaluates the effect of pharmacogenomic testing guiding on clinical outcomes of major depressive disorder. METHODS Pubmed, Embase, and Cochrane Library of Clinical Trials were searched from inception until August 2022. Key terms included pharmacogenomic and antidepressive. Odds ratios (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) were calculated using fixed-effects model for low or moderate heterogeneity or random-effects model for high heterogeneity. RESULTS Eleven studies (5347 patients) were included. Compared with usual group, pharmacogenomic testing guided group was associated with an increased response rate at week 8 (OR 1.32, 95%CI 1.15-1.53, 8 studies, 4328 participants) and week 12 (OR 1.36, 95%CI 1.15-1.62, 4 studies, 2814 participants). Similarly, guided group was associated with an increased rate of remission at week 8 (OR 1.58, 95%CI 1.31-1.92, 8 studies, 3971 participants) and week 12 (OR 2.23, 95%CI 1.23-4.04, 5 studies, 2664 participants). However, no significant differences were found between the two groups in response rate at week 4 (OR 1.12, 95%CI 0.89-1.41, 2 studies, 2261 participants) and week 24 (OR 1.16, 95%CI 0.96-1.41, 2 studies, 2252 participants), and remission rate at week 4 (OR 1.26, 95%CI 0.93-1.72, 2 studies, 2261 participants) and week 24 (OR 1.06, 95%CI 0.83-1.34, 2 studies, 2252 participants). Medication congruence in 30 days was significantly reduced in the pharmacogenomic guided group compared with the usual care group (OR 2.07, 95%CI 1.69-2.54, 3 studies, 2862 participants). We found significant differences between subgroups of target population in response and remission rate. CONCLUSION Patients with major depressive disorder may benefit from pharmacogenomic testing guided treatment by achieving target response and remission rates more quickly.

CYP2D6 and CYP2C8 pharmacogenetics and pharmacological interactions to predict imatinib plasmatic exposure in GIST patients. Br J Clin Pharmacol 2023; 89:1089-1098.

Abstract
AIMS Patients on treatment with oral fixed dose imatinib are frequently under- or overexposed to the drug. We investigated the association between the gene activity score (GAS) of imatinib-metabolizing cytochromes (CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP2D6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2C8) and imatinib and nor-imatinib exposure. We also investigated the impact of concurrent drug-drug-interactions (DDIs) on the association between GAS and imatinib exposure. METHODS Serial plasma samples were collected from 33 GIST patients treated with imatinib 400 mg daily within a prospective clinical trial. Imatinib and nor-imatinib Ctrough were quantified by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Genetic polymorphisms with a functional impact on imatinib-metabolizing cytochromes were identified and a GAS was calculated for each gene. A DDI-adjusted GAS was also generated. RESULTS Imatinib and nor-imatinib Ctrough were measured in 161 plasma samples. CYP2D6 GAS and metabolizer status based on genotype were associated with imatinib and (imatinib + nor-imatinib) Ctrough . CYP2D6 poor and intermediate metabolizers were predicted to have a lower nor-imatinib/imatinib metabolic ratio than normal metabolizers (0.197 and 0.193 vs. 0.247, P = .0205), whereas CYP2C8*3 carriers had a higher ratio than CYP2C8*1/*1 patients (0.263 vs. 0.201, P = .0220). CYP2C9 metabolizer status was inversely related to the metabolic ratio with an effect probably driven by the linkage disequilibrium between CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C8*3. The CYP2D6 DDI-adjusted GAS was still predictive of imatinib exposure. CONCLUSIONS These findings highlight that CYP2D6 plays a major role in imatinib pharmacokinetics, but other players (i.e., CYP2C8) may influence imatinib exposure. These findings could drive the selection of patients more susceptible to imatinib under- or overexposure who could be candidates for personalized treatment and intensified monitoring strategies.

[PMID: 36645468 DOI: 10.1007/s00228-022-03449-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE There is marked heterogeneity in treatment response of atomoxetine in patients with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), especially for the pediatric population. This review aims to evaluate current evidence to characterize the dose-exposure relationship, establish clinically relevant metrics for systemic exposure to atomoxetine, define a therapeutic exposure range, and to provide a dose-adaptation strategy before implementing personalized dosing for atomoxetine in children with ADHD. METHODS A comprehensive search was performed across electronic databases (PubMed and Embase) covering the period of January 1, 1985 to July 10, 2022, to summarize recent advances in the pharmacokinetics, pharmacogenomics/pharmacogenetics (PGx), therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), physiologically based pharmacokinetics (PBPK), and population pharmacokinetics (PPK) of atomoxetine in children with ADHD. RESULTS Some factors affecting the pharmacokinetics of atomoxetine were summarized, including food, CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 phenotypes, and drug‒drug interactions (DDIs). The association between treatment response and genetic polymorphisms of genes encoding pharmacological targets, such as norepinephrine transporter (NET/SLC6A2) and dopamine β hydroxylase (DBH), was also discussed. Based on well-developed and validated assays for monitoring plasma concentrations of atomoxetine, the therapeutic reference range in pediatric patients with ADHD proposed by several studies was summarized. However, supporting evidence on the relationship between systemic atomoxetine exposure levels and clinical response was far from sufficient. CONCLUSION Personalizing atomoxetine dosage may be even more complex than anticipated thus far, but elucidating the best way to tailor the non-stimulant to a patient's individual need will be achieved by combining two strategies: detailed research in linking the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in pediatric patients, and better understanding in nature and causes of ADHD, as well as environmental stressors.

Determinants of approved acetylcholinesterase inhibitor response outcomes in Alzheimer's disease: relevance for precision medicine in neurodegenerative diseases. Ageing Res Rev 2023; 84:101819. [PMID: 36526257 DOI: 10.1016/j.arr.2022.101819] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 12/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (ChEI) are the global standard of care for the symptomatic treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and show significant positive effects in neurodegenerative diseases with cognitive and behavioral symptoms. Although experimental and large-scale clinical evidence indicates the potential long-term efficacy of ChEI, primary outcomes are generally heterogeneous across outpatient clinics and regional healthcare systems. Sub-optimal dosing or slow tapering, heterogeneous guidelines about the timing for therapy initiation (prodromal versus dementia stages), healthcare providers' ambivalence to treatment, lack of disease awareness, delayed medical consultation, prescription of ChEI in non-AD cognitive disorders, contribute to the negative outcomes. We present an evidence-based overview of determinants, spanning genetic, molecular, and large-scale networks, involved in the response to ChEI in patients with AD and other neurodegenerative diseases. A comprehensive understanding of cerebral and retinal cholinergic system dysfunctions along with ChEI response predictors in AD is crucial since disease-modifying therapies will frequently be prescribed in combination with ChEI. Therapeutic algorithms tailored to genetic, biological, clinical (endo)phenotypes, and disease stages will help leverage inter-drug synergy and attain optimal combined response outcomes, in line with the precision medicine model.

Abstract
PURPOSE To provide guidance on the use of opioids to manage pain from cancer or cancer treatment in adults. METHODS A systematic review of the literature identified systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials of the efficacy and safety of opioid analgesics in people with cancer, approaches to opioid initiation and titration, and the prevention and management of opioid adverse events. PubMed and the Cochrane Library were searched from January 1, 2010, to February 17, 2022. American Society of Clinical Oncology convened an Expert Panel to review the evidence and formulate recommendations. RESULTS The evidence base consisted of 31 systematic reviews and 16 randomized controlled trials. Opioids have primarily been evaluated in patients with moderate-to-severe cancer pain, and they effectively reduce pain in this population, with well-characterized adverse effects. Evidence was limited for several of the questions of interest, and the Expert Panel relied on consensus for these recommendations or noted that no recommendation could be made at this time. RECOMMENDATIONS Opioids should be offered to patients with moderate-to-severe pain related to cancer or active cancer treatment unless contraindicated. Opioids should be initiated PRN (as needed) at the lowest possible dose to achieve acceptable analgesia and patient goals, with early assessment and frequent titration. For patients with a substance use disorder, clinicians should collaborate with a palliative care, pain, and/or substance use disorder specialist to determine the optimal approach to pain management. Opioid adverse effects should be monitored, and strategies are provided for prevention and management.Additional information is available at www.asco.org/supportive-care-guidelines.

Abstract
Tamoxifen (TAM) is widely used in the treatment of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. TAM is metabolized into the active secondary metabolite endoxifen (ENDO), primarily by CYP2D6. We aimed to investigate the effects of an African-specific CYP2D6 variant allele, CYP2D6*17, on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of TAM and its active metabolites in 42 healthy black Zimbabweans. Subjects were grouped based on CYP2D6 genotypes as CYP2D6*1/*1 or *1/*2 or *2/*2 (CYP2D6*1 or *2), CYP2D6*1/*17 or 2*/*17, and CYP2D6*17/*17. PK parameters for TAM and three metabolites were determined. The pharmacokinetics of ENDO showed statistically significant differences among the three groups. The mean ENDO AUC0-∞ in CYP2D6*17/*17 subjects was 452.01 (196.94) h·*ng/mL, and the AUC0-∞ in CYP2D6*1/*17 subjects was 889.74 h·ng/mL, which was 5-fold and 2.8-fold lower than in CYP2D6*1 or *2 subjects, respectively. Individuals who were heterozygous or homozygous for CYP2D6*17 alleles showed a 2- and 5-fold decrease in Cmax, respectively, compared to the CYP2D6*1 or *2 genotype. CYP2D6*17 gene carriers have significantly lower ENDO exposure levels than CYP2D6*1 or *2 gene carriers. Pharmacokinetic parameters of TAM and the two primary metabolites, N-desmethyl tamoxifen (NDT) and 4-hydroxy tamoxifen (4OHT), did not show any significant difference in the three genotype groups. The African-specific CYP2D6*17 variant had effects on ENDO exposure levels that could potentially have clinical implications for patients homozygous for this variant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated whether there are pharmacogenomic markers predictive of chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) as a result of taxane-based chemotherapy. METHODS Patients were enrolled from August 2020 to November 2020 in a prospective, case-control trial evaluating pharmacogenetic predictors of CIPN. All women were treated with at least 3 cycles of taxane-based chemotherapy for histologically confirmed gynecologic malignancies. Buccal saliva samples were used to test for 32 drug metabolism variations. All testing was performed by ⍺LPHA-GENOMIX laboratories. Fisher's Exact test was used to assess for event differences of categorical variables. RESULTS Of 102 enrolled patients, 58%, 28%, and 14% had ovarian, endometrial, or cervical cancers, respectively. The median age was 67, 72% were Caucasian and 25% were African American. 16% of patients were treated with 3-4 cycles, 57% received 5-7 cycles, and 27% received 8 or more cycles of chemotherapy that included paclitaxel. Grade 2 CIPN was experienced by 51 patients. There was no difference in age, race, disease site, or number of chemotherapy cycles (p > 0.05) between those who did or did not develop CIPN. CYP2D6 genotype (p = 0.009) and CYP3A5 genotype (p = 0.023) had different frequencies among those with and without CIPN. Patients classified as having poor or intermediate function of CYP2D6 had increased risk of CIPN (OR 1.63, 95% CI 1.04-2.57, p = 0.026). There was no difference in CYP2D6 phenotype by race (p = 0.29). No patients with normal function of CYP3A5 developed CIPN. There were no Caucasians with normal function of CYP3A5, but 28% of African Americans had normal CYP3A5 function (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Pharmacogenomics appear associated with the development of CIPN and may be able to help personalize treatment decision making.

Abstract
There is considerable inter-individual variability in the effectiveness and safety of pharmaceutical interventions. This phenomenon can be attributed to a multitude of factors; however, it is widely acknowledged that common genetic variation affecting drug absorption or metabolism play a substantial contributory role. This is a concept known as pharmacogenetics. Understanding how common genetic variants influence responses to medications, and using this knowledge to inform prescribing practice, could yield significant advantages for both patients and healthcare systems. Some health services around the world have introduced pharmacogenetics into routine practice, whereas others are less advanced along the implementation pathway. This chapter introduces the field of pharmacogenetics, the existing body of evidence, and discusses barriers to implementation. The chapter will specifically focus on efforts to introduce pharmacogenetics in the NHS, highlighting key challenges related to scale, informatics, and education.

Abstract
Historically, animal models have been routinely used in the characterization of novel chemical entities (NCEs) for various psychiatric disorders. Animal models have been essential in the in vivo validation of novel drug targets, establishment of lead compound pharmacokinetic to pharmacodynamic relationships, optimization of lead compounds through preclinical candidate selection, and development of translational measures of target occupancy and functional target engagement. Yet, with decades of multiple NCE failures in Phase II and III efficacy trials for different psychiatric disorders, the utility and value of animal models in the drug discovery process have come under intense scrutiny along with the widespread withdrawal of the pharmaceutical industry from psychiatric drug discovery. More recently, the development and utilization of animal models for the discovery of psychiatric NCEs has undergone a dynamic evolution with the application of the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) framework for better design of preclinical to clinical translational studies combined with innovative genetic, neural circuitry-based, and automated testing technologies. In this chapter, the authors will discuss this evolving role of animal models for improving the different stages of the discovery and development in the identification of next generation treatments for psychiatric disorders.

Abstract
Second-generation antipsychotics are widely used for the treatment of schizophrenia. Aripiprazole (ARI) is classified as a third-generation antipsychotic drug with a high affinity for dopamine and serotonin receptors. It is considered a dopamine-system stabilizer without severe side effects. In some patients the response to ARI treatment is inadequate and they require an effective augmentation strategy. It has been found that the response to the drug and the risk of adverse metabolic effects can be related to gene polymorphisms. A reduced dose is recommended for CYP2D6 poor metabolizers; moreover, it is postulated that other polymorphisms including CYP3A4, CYP3A5, ABCB1, DRD2, and 5-HTRs genes influence the therapeutic effect of ARI. ARI can increase the levels of prolactin, C-peptide, insulin, and/or cholesterol possibly due to specific genetic variants. It seems that a pharmacogenetic approach can help predict drug response and improve the clinical management of patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
In precision medicine, multiple factors are involved in clinical decision-making because of ethnic and racial genetic diversity, family history and other health factors. Although advanced techniques have evolved, there is still an economic obstacle to pharmacogenetic (PGx) implementation in developing countries. The aim of the present study was to provide an alternative pipeline that roughly estimate patient carrier type and prescreen out wild-type samples before sequencing or genotyping to determine genetic status. Fast co-amplification at lower denaturation temperature (COLD)-PCR was used to differentiate genetic variant non-carriers from carriers. The majority of drugs are hepatically cleared by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and genes encoding CYP enzymes are highly variable. Of all the CYPs, CYP2 family of CYP2C9, CYP2C19, and CYP2D6 isoforms have clinically significant impact on drugs of PGx testing. Therefore, five variants associated with these CYPs were selected for preliminary testing with this novel pipeline. For fast COLD-PCR, the optimal annealing temperature and critical denaturation temperature were determined and evaluated via Sanger sequencing of 27 randomly collected samples. According to precise Tc, to perform in a single-reaction is difficult. However, in this study, this issue was resolved by combination of precise Tc using 10+10+20 cycles. The results showed 100% sensitivity and specificity, with perfect agreement (κ=1.0) compared with Sanger sequencing. The present study provides a prescreening platform by introducing multiplex fast COLD-PCR as a pharmacoeconomic implementation. Our study just present in five variants which are not enough to describe patient metabolic status. Therefore, other actional genetic variants are still needed to cover the actual patient's genotypes. Nevertheless, the proposed method can well-present its efficiency and reliability for serving as a PGx budget platform in the future.

Abstract
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder with onset usually in childhood characterized by inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity causing a functional impairment. Untreated ADHD, or treatment delay is associated with adverse outcomes and poor quality of life. Although conservative management strategies such as behavioral and psychological interventions are important, pharmacological treatment has a strong evidence base with improved outcomes. ADHD medications are broadly divided into stimulant and non-stimulant medications. Stimulant medications are generally more effective than non-stimulants. Cardiovascular safety of ADHD medication has been a matter of debate for decades. Treatment guidelines advise the careful consideration of risks and benefits in people with cardiovascular diseases such as congenital heart disease or cardiomyopathy. Although stimulants can increase systemic blood pressure and heart rate, no significant associations were found between their use and serious cardiovascular events. Concerns regarding QT effects and attendant sudden cardiac death risks deter clinicians from initiating much-needed ADHD medications in patients with heart disease. This overly cautious approach is potentially depriving low-risk individuals from significant benefits associated with timely ADHD drug treatment. This review discusses the cardiovascular risks reportedly associated with ADHD medications, the evidence base for their safe usage in persons with established cardiovascular disease, and highlights future research directions.

Association between CYP2D6 phenotype and recurrence of Plasmodium vivax infection in south Korean patients. Malar J 2022; 21:289. [PMID: 36217154 PMCID: PMC9552356 DOI: 10.1186/s12936-022-04311-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Primaquine is activated by CYP2D6 in the hepatocytes. In Korea, primaquine is the only hypnozoitocidal agent used for patients with vivax malaria. Thus, patients with poor CYP2D6 activity could have an increased risk of primaquine failure and subsequent relapse. The study sought to identify the association between CYP2D6 phenotype and recurrence of malaria in Korean patients. Methods A total of 102 patients with vivax malaria were prospectively enrolled from eight institutions in Korea. An additional 38 blood samples from patients with recurred vivax malaria were provided by the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency. Malaria recurrence was defined as more than one episode of vivax malaria in the same or consecutive years. CYP2D6 star alleles, phenotypes, and activity scores were examined. Results Genotyping for CYP2D6 was successful in 101 of the prospectively enrolled patients and 38 samples from the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency, of which 91 were included in the no-recurrence group and 48 were included in the recurrence group. Reduced CYP2D6 activity (intermediate metabolizer) phenotype was more common in the recurrence group than in the no-recurrence group (OR, 2.33 (95% CI, 1.14–4.77); p = 0.02). Patients with lower CYP2D6 activity had a higher probability of recurrence (p = 0.029). Conclusion This study suggests that CYP2D6 polymorphism may affect primaquine efficacy and thus Plasmodium vivax recurrence in Korea.

[PMID: 36110554 PMCID: PMC9468644 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2022.940510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2022] [Accepted: 08/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Aims: The CYP2D6*41 variant is the second or third frequent reduced function allele in Chinese with a frequency of around 3–4%, while it is the major reduced function allele in Indians, Saudi Arabians and Caucasians with frequencies of around 10–20%. The present study was designed to explore the impact of CYP2D6*41 on the metabolic activity of CYP2D6 using phenotyping methods in urine, plasma, and saliva. Methods: We used dextromethorphan as the probe drug to analyze the phenotypes of 87 subjects with CYP2D6*1/*1 (n = 22), CYP2D6*1/*2 (n = 33), CYP2D6*2/*2 (n = 4), CYP2D6*1/*41 (n = 5), CYP2D6*2/*41 (n = 3), CYP2D6*10/*41 (n = 16), and CYP2D6*5/*41 (n = 4) for CYP2D6. The ratio of parent drug to metabolite in 3 h saliva, 3 h plasma, and in 0–3 h urine was considered the metabolic ratio (MR). Results: The CYP2D6*41 allele had substantial impact on the metabolic activity of CYP2D6 regardless of the urinary, plasma, or salivary phenotyping method used. In subjects with CYP2D6*1(or *2)/*1(or *2), *1 (or *2)/*41, *10/*41 and *5/*41 (all p < 0.001), the salivary, plasma, or urinary MR value increased. The MRs in saliva, plasma, and urine displayed high correlations. Conclusion: The activity score system or the consensus activity score system, instead of the traditional phenotype classification, could predict the CYP2D6 enzyme activity more accurately. CYP2D6*41 had similar or more impact on the CYP2D6 enzyme activity as compared with CYP2D6*10. Assigning *41 a score of 0.5 and assigning *10 a score of 0.25 according to the consensus AS system should be reconsidered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are concerns that tamoxifen is less effective in Asian women because of the high prevalence of impaired function cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) polymor-phisms.
AIM To evaluate how knowledge of CYP2D6 genotype impacted the choice of hormonal agent and how CYP2D6 genotype and agent were associated with clinical outcomes.
METHODS Eighty-two women were recruited. Seventy-eight completed CYP2D6 genotyping and were categorized into poor, intermediate (IM) and extensive or ultra metabolizer phenotypes. Women with poor metabolizer and IM phenotypes were recommended aromatase inhibitors as the preferred agent.
RESULTS More than 70% of the women had an IM phenotype, 32% an extensive or ultra metabolizer phenotype, and 0% had a poor metabolizer phenotype. Regardless of genotype, more women opted for aromatase inhibitors. Overall, 80% of women completed 5 years of hormonal therapy. Five women developed recurrence, 3 contralateral breast cancer, 5 died, and 1 was diagnosed with a second primary cancer. Five-year recurrence-free and overall survival were slightly better in women with the extensive or ultra metabolizer phenotype compared to those with the IM phenotype, though not statistically significant [P = 0.743, hazard ratio (HR): 1.441, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.191 to 10.17 and P = 0.798, HR: 1.327, 95%CI: 0.172 to 9.915, respectively]. Women receiving aromatase inhibitors also appeared to have a better, but also nonsignificant, 5-year recurrence-free and overall survival (P = 0.253, HR: 0.368, 95%CI: 0.031 to 0.258 and P = 0.292, HR: 0.252, 95%CI: 0.005 to 4.951, respectively).
CONCLUSION The IM phenotype was highly prevalent but was not associated with clinical outcome.

Abstract
Purpose Pharmacogenetic counselling is a complex task and requires the efforts of an interdisciplinary team, which cannot be implemented in most cases. Therefore, simple rules could help to minimize the risk of medications incompatible with each other or with frequent genetic variants. Patients and Methods One hundred and eighty-four multi-morbid Caucasian patients suffering from side effects or inefficient therapy were enrolled and genotyped. Their medication was analyzed by a team of specialists using Drug-PIN® (medication support system) and individual recommendations for 34 drug classes were generated. Results In each of the critical drug classes, 50% of the drugs cannot be recommended to be prescribed in typical drug cocktails. PPIs and SSRI/SNRIs represent the most critical drug classes without showing a single favorable drug. Among the well-tolerated drugs (not recommended for less than 5% of the patients) are metamizole, celecoxib, olmesartan and famotidine. For each drug class, a ranking of active ingredients according to their suitability is presented. Conclusion Genotyping and its profound analysis are not available in many settings today. The consideration of frequent alterations of metabolic elimination routes and drug–drug–gene interactions by using simple rankings can help to avoid many incompatibilities, side effects and inefficient therapies.

Abstract
The latest consensus has changed CYP2D6 genotyping among Chinese population, while its impact on metoprolol tolerance and adverse events in elderly Chinese patients with cardiovascular diseases remains unclear. In this study, we prospectively included elderly patients who started metoprolol treatment for cardiovascular indications. According to the latest consensus on CYP2D6 genotype-to-phenotype translation, the patients were categorized as normal, intermediate, or poor metabolizers (NMs, IMs, or PMs, respectively) by detecting the presence of the CYP2D6*1, *2, *5, *10, and *14. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the correlation between the CYP2D6 phenotype and incidence of adverse events, which were assessed over a 12-week period. In this study, there were 651 (62.7%) NMs, 385 (37.1%) IMs, and 3 (0.3%) PMs. After 12 weeks of follow-up, compared with NMs, IMs had the lower maintenance dose [50.0 (25.0–50.0) mg/day vs. 25.0 (25.0–50.0) mg/day, p < 0.001] and lower weight-adjusted maintenance doses (0.52 ± 0.25 mg/day/kg vs. 0.42 ± 0.22 mg/day/kg, p < 0.001), and had higher incidence of postural hypotension (6.0% vs. 10.9%, p = 0.006), bradycardia (21.5% vs. 28.6%, p = 0.011), asystole (0.8% vs. 3.1%, p = 0.009) and syncope (2.0% vs. 6.2%, p = 0.001). In logistic regression model, the overall incidence of adverse events was 1.37-fold larger in IMs than in NMs (odds ratio = 1.37, 95% confidence interval = 1.05–1.79, p = 0.021). We conclude that IMs have lower tolerance and higher incidence of metoprolol-related adverse events than NMs in elderly Chinese patients with cardiovascular diseases. CYP2D6 genotyping is justifiable in elderly patients to minimize the risk of adverse events and ensure the benefits of metoprolol.

Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:855000.

Abstract
The psychedelic alkaloid ibogaine is increasingly used as an oral treatment for substance use disorders, despite being unlicensed in most countries and having reported adverse events. Using wild-type and genetically modified mice, we investigated the impact of mouse (m)Abcb1a/1b and Abcg2 drug efflux transporters, human and mouse OATP drug uptake transporters, and the CYP3A drug-metabolizing complex on the pharmacokinetics of ibogaine and its main metabolites. Following oral ibogaine administration (10 mg/kg) to mice, we observed a rapid and extensive conversion of ibogaine to noribogaine (active metabolite) and noribogaine glucuronide. Mouse Abcb1a/1b, in combination with mAbcg2, modestly restricted the systemic exposure (plasma AUC) and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of ibogaine. Accordingly, we found a ∼2-fold decrease in the relative recovery of ibogaine in the small intestine with fecal content in the absence of both transporters compared to the wild-type situation. Ibogaine presented good intrinsic brain penetration even in wild-type mice (brain-to-plasma ratio of 3.4). However, this was further increased by 1.5-fold in Abcb1a/1b;Abcg2−/− mice, but not in Abcg2−/− mice, revealing a stronger effect of mAbcb1a/1b in restricting ibogaine brain penetration. The studied human OATP transporters showed no major impact on ibogaine plasma and tissue disposition, but the mOatp1a/1b proteins modestly affected the plasma exposure of ibogaine metabolites and the tissue disposition of noribogaine glucuronide. No considerable role of mouse Cyp3a knockout or transgenic human CYP3A4 overexpression was observed in the pharmacokinetics of ibogaine and its metabolites. In summary, ABCB1, in combination with ABCG2, limits the oral availability of ibogaine, possibly by mediating its hepatobiliary and/or direct intestinal excretion. Moreover, ABCB1 restricts ibogaine brain penetration. Variation in ABCB1/ABCG2 activity due to genetic variation and/or pharmacologic inhibition might therefore affect ibogaine exposure in patients, but only to a limited extent. The insignificant impact of human CYP3A4 and OATP1B1/1B3 transporters may be clinically advantageous for ibogaine and noribogaine use, as it decreases the risks of undesirable drug interactions or interindividual variation related to CYP3A4 and/or OATP activity.

J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12030374. [PMID: 35330374 PMCID: PMC8951754 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12030374] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2022] [Revised: 02/18/2022] [Accepted: 02/23/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
CYP2D6 is a highly polymorphic gene whose variations affect its enzyme activity. To assess whether the specific population history of Roma, characterized by constant migrations and endogamy, influenced the distribution of alleles and thus phenotypes, the CYP2D6 gene was sequenced using NGS (Next Generation Sequencing) method-targeted sequencing in three groups of Croatian Roma (N = 323) and results were compared to European and Asian populations. Identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were used to reconstruct haplotypes, which were translated into the star-allele nomenclature and later into phenotypes. A total of 43 polymorphic SNPs were identified. The three Roma groups differed significantly in the frequency of alleles of polymorphisms 6769 A > G, 6089 G > A, and 5264 A > G (p < 0.01), as well as in the prevalence of the five most represented star alleles: *1, *2, *4, *10, and *41 (p < 0.0001). Croatian Roma differ from the European and Asian populations in the accumulation of globally rare SNPs (6089 G > A, 4589 C > T, 4622 G > C, 7490 T > C). Our results also show that demographic history influences SNP variations in the Roma population. The three socio-culturally different Roma groups studied differ significantly in the distribution of star alleles, which confirms the importance of a separate study of different Roma groups.

[PMID: 35205356 PMCID: PMC8871547 DOI: 10.3390/genes13020311] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2021] [Revised: 01/24/2022] [Accepted: 01/27/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Pharmacogenomics is based on the understanding of the individual differences in drug use, the response to drug therapy (efficacy and toxicity), and the mechanisms underlying variable drug responses. The identification of DNA variants which markedly contribute to inter-individual variations in drug responses would improve the efficacy of treatments and decrease the rate of the adverse side effects of drugs. This review focuses only on the impact of polymorphisms within drug-metabolizing enzymes on drug responses. Anticancer drugs usually have a very narrow therapeutic index; therefore, it is very important to use appropriate doses in order to achieve the maximum benefits without putting the patient at risk of life-threatening toxicities. However, the adjustment of the appropriate dose is not so easy, due to the inheritance of specific polymorphisms in the genes encoding the target proteins and drug-metabolizing enzymes. This review presents just a few examples of such polymorphisms and their impact on the response to therapy.

[PMID: 35123571 PMCID: PMC8817534 DOI: 10.1186/s40246-022-00378-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2021] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
CYP2D6 is a key drug-metabolizing enzyme implicated in the biotransformation of approximately 25% of currently prescribed drugs. Interindividual and interethnic differences in CYP2D6 enzymatic activity, and hence variability in substrate drug efficacy and safety, are attributed to a highly polymorphic corresponding gene. This study aims at reviewing the frequencies of the most clinically relevant CYP2D6 alleles in the Arabs countries. Articles published before May 2021 that reported CYP2D6 genotype and allelic frequencies in the Arab populations of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region were retrieved from PubMed and Google Scholar databases. This review included 15 original articles encompassing 2737 individuals from 11 countries of the 22 members of the League of Arab States. Active CYP2D6 gene duplications reached the highest frequencies of 28.3% and 10.4% in Algeria and Saudi Arabia, respectively, and lowest in Egypt (2.41%) and Palestine (4.9%). Frequencies of the loss-of-function allele CYP2D6*4 ranged from 3.5% in Saudi Arabia to 18.8% in Egypt. The disparity in frequencies of the reduced-function CYP2D6*10 allele was perceptible, with the highest frequency reported in Jordan (14.8%) and the lowest in neighboring Palestine (2%), and in Algeria (0%). The reduced-function allele CYP2D6*41 was more prevalent in the Arabian Peninsula countries; Saudi Arabia (18.4%) and the United Arab Emirates (15.2%), in comparison with the Northern Arab-Levantine Syria (9.7%) and Algeria (8.3%). Our study demonstrates heterogeneity of CYP2D6 alleles among Arab populations. The incongruities of the frequencies of alleles in neighboring countries with similar demographic composition emphasize the necessity for harmonizing criteria of genotype assignment and conducting comprehensive studies on larger MENA Arab populations to determine their CYP2D6 allelic makeup and improve therapeutic outcomes of CYP2D6- metabolized drugs.

Dynamic Changes of Endogenic or Exogenic β-Carboline Alkaloid Harmine in Different Mammals and Human in vivo at Developmental and Physiological States. Front Aging Neurosci 2022; 13:773638. [PMID: 35095466 PMCID: PMC8794950 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2021.773638] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2021] [Accepted: 12/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Several β-carboline alkaloids (βCBs), such as harmine, harmaline, harmane, and nor-harmane, are effective for Alzheimer's disease mouse models. They can be found in some plants, common foodstuffs, and blank plasma of various mammals. However, whether these compounds in mammals are exogenous or endogenous remain unclear. METHODS The exposure levels of βCBs and of neurotransmitters in plasma and tissues of pup rats, aging rats, mice of different physiological states, and healthy volunteers were detected by using UPLC-MS/MS. Plasma and tissue samples from 110 newborn rats up to 29 days old at 11 sampling points were collected and were analyzed to determine the concentration variation of βCBs in the developmental phase of newborn rats. The plasma of rats aged 2 to 18 months was used to detect the variation trend of βCBs and with some neurotransmitters. The plasma samples of normal C57BL/6 mice, APP/PS1 double transgenic mice, and scopolamine-induced memory impairment mice were collected and were analyzed to compare the difference of βCBs in different physiological states. The exposure levels of βCBs such as harmine, harmaline, and harmane in plasma of 550 healthy volunteers were also detected and analyzed on the basis of gender, race, and age. RESULTS Results showed that harmine was the main compound found in rats, mice, and human, which can be detected in a newborn rat plasma (0.16 ± 0.03 ng/ml) and brain (0.33 ± 0.14 ng/g) without any exogenous consumption. The concentration of harmine in rat plasma showed a decreasing trend similar to the exposure levels of neurotransmitters such as 5-hydroxytryptamine, acetylcholine chloride, glutamic acid, tyrosine, and phenylalanine during the growth period of 18 months. The harmine exposure in rats and human indicates high dependence on the physiological and pathological status such as aging, gender, and race. CONCLUSION The dynamic changes of harmine exposure in different animals and human, in vivo, at developmental and physiological states indicate that harmine is a naturally and widely distributed endogenous substance in different mammals and human. In addition to exogenous ingestion, spontaneous synthesis might be another important source of harmine in mammals, which should be verified by further experiment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is considered one of the most common cancers related to mortality around the world, and susceptibility is related with genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. Copy number variation of the Bcell CLL/lymphoma 9 (BCL9) gene is a type of structural variation which can influence gene expression and can be related with specific phenotypes and diseases and has a role in hepatocarcinogenesis. Our aims were to assess the copy number variation (CNV) in the BCL9 gene and explore its role in HCV-related HCC Egyptian patients. A total of 50 HCV-related HCC patients were enrolled in the study (including 25 early HCC and 25 late HCC cases); the copy number of the BCL9 gene was detected using quantitative polymerase reaction. RESULTS There was a highly statistically significant difference between the two groups (early and late HCC patients) in gender, bilharziasis, performance status, child score class, child grade, focal lesion size, portal vein, and ascites. CNV was detected and represented by the gain in the BCL9 gene in 14% of patients, and all of them were males. Also, it was noticed that the ratio of gain in BCL9 copy number in late individuals was about 1.5 times than that in early HCC individuals. Moreover, our results showed that the distribution of performance status > 1, average and enlarged liver, focal lesion size, thrombosed portal vein, and AFP was higher in patients with BCL9 copy number gain. CONCLUSION We detected about 14% gain in BCL9 copy number in Egyptian HCC patients. But the variation in copy number of the BCL9 gene did not affect HCC development in our patients' cohort.

Abstract
ADHD is a common condition in both children and adults. The most prescribed medications for the treatment of ADHD include methylphenidate, mixed amphetamine salts, atomoxetine, guanfacine, and clonidine. While each of these medications have their own distinct pharmacokinetic profile, the extent to which pharmacogenetics effects their pharmacokinetic parameters is best described in atomoxetine, followed by methylphenidate. Atomoxetine is predominantly metabolized by cytochrome p450 2D6 (CYP2D6), while methylphenidate is metabolized by carboxylesterase 1 (CES1). Both CYP2D6 and CES1 have multiple variants resulting in varying levels of enzyme activity; however, to date, the functional consequence of variants and alleles for CYP2D6 is better characterized as compared to CES1. Regarding CYP2D6, individuals who are poor metabolizers prescribed atomoxetine experience up to ten-fold higher exposure as compared to normal metabolizers at comparable dosing. Additionally, individuals prescribed methylphenidate with the rs71647871 variant may experience up to 2.5-fold higher exposure as compared to those without. Having this pharmacogenetic information available may aid clinicians and patients when choosing medications and doses to treat ADHD.

Frequency of CYP2D6*3 and *4 and metabolizer phenotypes in three mestizo Peruvian populations. PHARMACIA 2021.

Abstract
Wild type genotypes (CYP2D6) and their allelic variants have been described in a sample of a Peruvian mestizo population. The global allele frequency was 0.015 for CYP2D6*3 and 0.051 for CYP2D6*4. The percentages of genotypes described were 97% CYP2D6*1/*1 and 3.0% CYP2D6*1/*3; 90.60% for CYP2D6*1/*1, 8.55% CYP2D6*1/*4 and 0.85% CYP2D6*4/*4. The allelic frequencies of CYP2D6*3 in the Lima subpopulations were 0.022 and 0.010 for Junin; CYP2D6*4 of 0.048, 0.060, and 0.050 for residents of Lima, Junín, and Tacna, respectively. The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test for the studied population showed that both frequencies are in equilibrium, p <.05. The metabolizer phenotype was inferred according to the genotypes: 11.54% were classified as intermediate metabolizers (*1/*3 or *1/*4) and 0.85% as poor metabolizers (*4/*4). It is concluded that the frequencies of the CYP2D6*3 and CYP2D6*4 alleles are low for the Peruvian mestizo population compared to the Latin American and tricontinental population, due to their natural population evolution, which is manifested by their decreased metabolic activity, the same that is relevant in clinical practice.

Abstract
The aim of this narrative review is to summarise efficacy and pharmacokinetic data for Plasmodium vivax in children. The burden of P. vivax malaria in children continues to remain a significant public health issue, and the need for improved treatment regimens for this vulnerable population is critical. Relapse after re-activation of dormant liver-stage hypnozoites poses additional challenges for treatment, elimination, and control strategies for P. vivax. Whilst it is recognised that paediatric pharmacology may be significantly influenced by anatomical and physiological changes of childhood, dosing regimens often continue to be extrapolated from adult data, highlighting the need for antimalarial dosing in children to be evaluated in early phase clinical trials. This will ensure that globally recommended treatment regimens do not result in suboptimal dosing in children. Furthermore, the development of affordable paediatric formulations to enhance treatment acceptability and widespread G6PD testing to facilitate use of anti-hypnozoite treatment such as primaquine and tafenoquine, should be further prioritised. As the world prepares for malaria elimination, a renewed focus on P. vivax malaria provides an ideal opportunity to harness momentum and ensure that all populations, including children have access to safe, efficacious, and correctly dosed antimalarial therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Interpatient variability in cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) enzyme activity alters the serum concentrations of most psychotropics, which often have narrow therapeutic indices. Therefore, preemptive knowledge of CYP2D6 activity is desired. However, accessible indicators for deficient CYP2D6 activity are necessary because genotyping all patients prescribed CYP2D6 metabolized drugs is often not feasible or cost-effective. METHODS In this study, the predictive value of the ratio between a CYP2D6 substrate and its metabolite, known as the metabolic ratio (MR), the dose-corrected serum concentration of substrate (CDR), and the dose-corrected sum concentration of substrate and metabolite (Sum CDR) of venlafaxine, risperidone, aripiprazole, and nortriptyline were determined to predict the CYP2D6 poor metabolizer (PM) phenotype. The area-under-the-receiver operator characteristic curve, as well as the sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values of the optimal thresholds, were calculated. RESULTS Although the MR, CDR, and Sum CDR all predicted the CYP2D6 PM phenotype, the predictive value of the MR was most robust for venlafaxine and aripiprazole, and the Sum CDR was inferior for all 3 psychotropics. MRs of venlafaxine, risperidone, and aripiprazole, and CDR of nortriptyline showed an area-under-the-receiver operator characteristics (95% confidence interval) of 97.2% (94.7%-99.6%), 93.0% (88.8%-97.2%), 97.8% (95.4%-100.0%), and 85.6% (78.0%-93.1%), respectively. Thresholds of the log(MR) of ≥0.1 for venlafaxine, ≥0.0 for risperidone, and ≥1.5 for aripiprazole, and log(CDR) ≥0.5 for nortriptyline produced >92% sensitivity and >64% specificity. CONCLUSIONS If therapeutic drug monitoring is available, the thresholds presented here could serve as a diagnostic tool for the CYP2D6 PM phenotype of psychiatric patients prescribed the aforementioned psychotropic medications.

Front Med (Lausanne) 2021; 8:683498. [PMID: 34568359 PMCID: PMC8458697 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2021.683498] [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: 03/21/2021] [Accepted: 08/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose: This study was performed to investigate the effects of common polymorphisms in CYP2D6 and CYP3A5 on the plasma concentrations and antihypertensive effects of bisoprolol in hypertensive Chinese patients. Methods: One hundred patients with essential hypertension were treated with open-label bisoprolol 2.5 mg daily for 6 weeks. Clinic blood pressure (BP) and ambulatory BP (ABP) were measured after the placebo run-in and after 6 weeks treatment. Peak plasma concentrations of bisoprolol were measured at 3 h after the first dose and 3 h after the dose after 6 weeks treatment. Trough levels were measured before the dose after 6 weeks treatment. Bisoprolol plasma concentrations were measured with a validated liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method. Six common polymorphisms in CYP2D6 and the CYP3A5 * 3 polymorphism were genotyped by TaqMan® assay. Results: After 6 weeks of treatment, clinic BP and heart rate were significantly reduced by 14.3 ± 10.9/8.4 ± 6.2 mmHg (P < 0.01) and 6.3 ± 7.6 BPM (P < 0.01), respectively. Similar reductions were seen in ABP values. Bisoprolol plasma concentration at 3 h after the first dose and 3 h post-dose after 6 weeks of treatment were significantly associated with baseline body weight (P < 0.001) but there was no significant effect of the CYP2D6 and CYP3A5 polymorphisms on these or the trough plasma concentrations. There was no significant association of the CYP2D6 and CYP3A5 polymorphisms or plasma bisoprolol concentrations with the clinic BP or ABP responses to bisoprolol. Conclusion: Bisoprolol 2.5 mg daily effectively reduced BP and HR. The common polymorphisms in CYP2D6 that were examined and the CYP3A5 * 3 polymorphism appear to have no benefit in predicting the hemodynamic response to bisoprolol in these patients.
