Safety and cardiovascular effects of multiple-dose administration of aripiprazole and olanzapine in a randomised clinical trial. Hum Psychopharmacol 2021; 36:1-12. [PMID: 32991788 DOI: 10.1002/hup.2761] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2020] [Revised: 09/09/2020] [Accepted: 09/14/2020] [Indexed: 01/21/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess adverse events (AEs) and safety of aripiprazole (ARI) and olanzapine (OLA) treatment. METHODS Twenty-four healthy volunteers receiving five daily oral doses of 10 mg ARI and 5 mg OLA in a crossover clinical trial were genotyped for 46 polymorphisms in 14 genes by qPCR. Drug plasma concentrations were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. Blood pressure (BP) and 12-lead electrocardiogram were measured in supine position. AEs were also recorded. RESULTS ARI decreased diastolic BP on the first day and decreased QTc on the third and fifth day. OLA had a systolic and diastolic BP, heart rate and QTc lowering effect on the first day. Polymorphisms in ADRA2A, COMT, DRD3 and HTR2A genes were significantly associated to these changes. The most frequent adverse drug reactions (ADRs) to ARI were somnolence, headache, insomnia, dizziness, restlessness, palpitations, akathisia and nausea while were somnolence, dizziness, asthenia, constipation, dry mouth, headache and nausea to OLA. Additionally, HTR2A, HTR2C, DRD2, DRD3, OPRM1, UGT1A1 and CYP1A2 polymorphisms had a role in the development of ADRs. CONCLUSIONS OLA induced more cardiovascular changes; however, more ADRs were registered to ARI. In addition, some polymorphisms may explain the difference in the incidence of these effects among subjects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cardiovascular events are a major cause of early death in the Huntington's disease (HD) population. Dysautonomia as well as deterioration of circadian rhythms can be detected early in the disease progression and can have profound effects on cardiac health. The aim of the present study was to determine if patients with HD and pre-manifest mutation carriers present a higher risk of cardiovascular disease than non-mutation-carrying controls. METHODS This was a prospective, cross-sectional, multicentre study of 38 HD mutation carriers (23 pre-manifest and 15 early-stage patients) compared with 38 age- and gender-matched healthy controls. Clinical and epidemiological variables, including the main haematological vascular risk factors, were recorded. Ambulatory blood-pressure monitoring and carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) measurement were performed to assess autonomic function and as target-organ damage markers. RESULTS Most (63.2%) patients with HD (86.7% and 47.8%, respectively, of the early-stage and pre-manifest patients) were non-dippers compared with 23.7% of controls (P = 0.001). CIMT values were in the 75th percentile in 46.7% and 43.5%, respectively, of the early-stage and pre-manifest patients, whereas none of the controls presented pathological values (P = 0.001 and P = 0.006, respectively). Nocturnal non-dipping was significantly associated with CIMT values in patients (P = 0.002) but not in controls. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that higher cardiovascular risks and target-organ damage are present even in pre-manifest patients. Although larger studies are needed to confirm these findings, clinicians should consider these results in the cardiovascular management of patients with HD.

Abstract
Cariprazine is a potential antipsychotic awaiting approval from the US Food and Drug Administration. It is a dopamine D2- and D3-receptor partial agonist, with higher affinity for D3 receptors, as opposed to the D2 antagonism of most older antipsychotic agents. Like most lipophilic antipsychotics, it undergoes extensive hepatic metabolism by cytochrome P450 (CYP), mainly the highly variable 3A4, with the formation of active metabolites. However, the parent compound - particularly its active didesmethyl derivative - is cleared very slowly, with elimination half-lives in schizophrenic patients ranging from 2-5 days for cariprazine to 2-3 weeks for didesmethyl-cariprazine. Exposure to the latter was several times that for cariprazine, although didesmethyl-cariprazine did not reach steady state within the 3 weeks of 12.5 mg/day dosing. Preliminary information on its therapeutic role comes from press releases and a few abstracts presented at scientific meetings. In short-term controlled trials, it was more effective than placebo in reducing positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia, with an effective dose range of 1.5-12 mg/day. Although cariprazine was associated with a higher incidence of akathisia and extrapyramidal side effects than placebo, it did not cause weight gain, metabolic abnormalities, prolactin increase, or corrected QT prolongation. Similarly, cariprazine's efficacy and tolerability for the treatment of bipolar disorder (manic/mixed and depressive episodes) was established in the dose range of 3-12 mg/day, although again no long-term data are available. Well-designed clinical trials, mainly direct "head-to-head" comparisons with other second-generation antipsychotic agents, are needed to define the therapeutic role and safety profile of cariprazine in schizophrenia and bipolar mania.

Abstract
Individual response to medication is highly variable. For many drugs, a substantial proportion of patients show suboptimal response at standard doses, whereas others experience adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Pharmacogenomics aims to identify genetic factors underlying this variability in drug response, providing solutions to improve drug efficacy and safety. We review recent advances in pharmacogenomics of cardiovascular drugs and cardiovascular ADRs, including warfarin, clopidogrel, β-blockers, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors, drug-induced long QT syndrome, and anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity. We particularly focus on the applicability of pharmacogenomic findings to pediatric patients in whom developmental changes in body size and organ function may affect drug pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Solid evidence supports the importance of gene variants in CYP2C9 and VKORC1 for warfarin dosing and in CYP2C19 for clopidogrel response in adult patients. For the other cardiovascular drugs or cardiovascular ADRs, further studies are needed to replicate or clarify genetic associations before considering uptake of pharmacogenetic testing in clinical practice. With the exception of warfarin and anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity, there is lack of pharmacogenomic studies on cardiovascular drug response or ADRs aimed specifically at children or adolescents. The first pediatric warfarin pharmacogenomic study indeed indicates differences from adults, pointing out the importance and need for pediatric-focused pharmacogenomic studies.

Abstract
Lurasidone is a new atypical antipsychotic in the benzoisothiazoles class of chemicals. Like most second-generation antipsychotics it is a full antagonist at dopamine D(2) and serotonin 5-HT(2A) receptors, and is a partial agonist at 5-HT(1A) receptors, a property shared by some but not all older agents. It has much greater affinity for 5-HT(7) subtype receptors than other atypical antipsychotics. Pharmacokinetic studies showed that lurasidone is reasonably rapidly absorbed, with bioavailability appearing to be increased by food. Lurasidone undergoes extensive metabolism to a number of metabolites, some of which retain pharmacological activities. Metabolism is mainly by CYP3A4, resulting in steady-state concentrations that vary between individuals and are potentially affected by strong inducers and inhibitors of this enzyme. Short-term clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of lurasidone in acute schizophrenia, with doses of 40 and 80 mg/day giving significant improvements from baseline in the PANSS and BPRS scores. The most common adverse events are nausea, vomiting, akathisia, dizziness, and sedation, with minimal increases in the risk of developing metabolic syndrome. Lurasidone did not raise the risk of QTc interval prolongation, although additional studies are required. Long-term trials are also needed to assess the risk of new-onset diabetes. Ongoing trials in patients with bipolar disorder are being completed but, again, efficacy and safety have been investigated only in a few short-term clinical trials.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The search for drugs that reduce psychotic symptoms, with minimal adverse effects, has led to the development of new agents that act somewhat differently from their older antipsychotic counterparts. These agents, which include aripiprazole, lurasidone and perospirone, act by targeting both D₂ and 5-HT(1A) receptors, in addition to other characteristic receptors. AREAS COVERED This article covers the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of aripiprazole, perospirone, lurasidone and cariprazine. The review also describes the effects of physiological and pathological variables on these drugs as well as potential drug interactions. The author provides the reader with knowledge of the fundamental pharmacokinetic characteristics and metabolic pathways of these new antipsychotics, emphasizing the clinically important common features and differences compared to other older agents. EXPERT OPINION Aripiprazole, perospirone, lurasidone and cariprazine share some of the pharmacokinetic characteristics of older, lipophilic antipsychotics and, like these, each has some distinct pharmacokinetic features that are clinically beneficial and some that are not. We await the results of future practical effectiveness trials of these new antipsychotics and their follow-on derivatives to learn more about their benefit/risk profile compared with established antipsychotics. It is hoped that some of these newer antipsychotics will not only increase the range of pharmacotherapeutic options, but decisively improve the expectations of psychotherapy for schizophrenia.

Abstract
AIMS Timolol is used topically for the treatment of glaucoma and metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 in the liver. The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that CYP 2D6 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is associated with drug effects of ophthalmic timolol. METHODS A total of 133 primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) subjects underwent the ophthalmic single timolol administration and the drug effects were observed, including lowering the effects of intraocular pressure (IOP) and side effects (i.e., appearing bradycardia). Eight SNPs of CYP2D6 were investigated in 73 subjects by a SNPstream genotyping system. The relationship between the effects of timolol and CYP2D6 Arg296Cys and Ser486Thr genotype distribution in these POAG subjects was analyzed. RESULTS Topical timolol administration had significant effect on IOP (P = 0.000) and heart rate (HR) (P = 0.000) in all 133 subjects, and individual ocular hypotensive effect of timolol varied between 0 and 23 mmHg. Individual effect of HR varied between -31 and 10 beats per minute, in the present study. According to SNP genotyping in 73 subjects, there was no significant difference of IOP between subjects with different CYP2D6 Arg296Cys (P = 0.308) or Ser486Thr genotypes (P = 0.741). The effect of timolol on HR was significantly different between subjects with different Arg296Cys genotypes (P = 0.046). Timolol-induced bradycardia tended to occur in subjects with Arg296Cys CT and TT genotype when compared with CC genotype (P = 0.009). CONCLUSIONS CYP2D6 SNP Arg296Cys appeared to be correlative with the intersubject variability seen with timolol in POAG subjects. Subjects with CC genotype trended to avoid timolol-induced bradycardia, and subjects with TT genotype trended to have poorer timolol-induced ocular hypotensive effects.

Abstract
Aims: The CYP2D6 -1584C>G (rs1080985) polymorphism has been identified as another major factor for CYP2D6 function that is possibly associated with ultrarapid metabolism. The mutant -1584G promoter genotype seems to be consistently related to a higher protein expression than -1584C. However, the impact this SNP in the CYP2D6 promoter region has on plasma levels of patients taking CYP2D6 substrates, such as thioridazine, has not been studied. Previously, we showed the validity of the mesoridazine:thioridazine ratio to assess CYP2D6 activity in clinical settings. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between the presence of the CYP2D6 -1584C>G polymorphism and the plasma concentrations of thioridazine and its metabolites in a previously studied population of patients in order to evaluate the implications for CYP2D6 hydroxylation capacity. Materials & methods: The CYP2D6 -1584C>G polymorphism was determined by using a PCR-RFLP method in 61 Caucasian psychiatric patients receiving thioridazine monotherapy. Results: Among patients with two active CYP2D6 genes, there were significant differences in the thioridazine:mesoridazine plasma concentrations ratio (p < 0.05) among the three CYP2D6 -1584C>G genotype groups. Moreover, in this group of patients the thioridazine:mesoridazine ratio was lower (p < 0.05) in carriers of CYP2D6 -1584G allele than in patients homozygous for CYP2D6 -1584C allele. However, no differences in thioridazine or its metabolite concentrations between homozygous CYP2D6 -1584C allele carriers and carriers of the -1584G allele were found. Conclusion: According to the present results the concentration ratio of thioridazine to mesoridazine was related to the CYP2D6 -1584C>G polymorphism. It is likely that individuals who carry CYP2D6 -1584G versus homozygotes for the -1584C allele may present an increased CYP2D6 activity.

Abstract
Debrisoquine hydroxylation polymorphism is by far the most thoroughly studied genetic polymorphism of the CYP2D6 drug-metabolizing enzyme. Debrisoquine hydroxylation phenotype has been the most used test in humans to evaluate CYP2D6 activity. Two debrisoquine hydroxylation phenotypes have been described: poor and extensive metabolizers. A group with a very low debrisoquine metabolic ratio within the extensive metabolizers, named ultrarapid metabolizers, has also been distinguished. This CYP2D6 variability can be for a large part alternatively determined by genotyping, which appears to be of clinical importance given CYP2D6 involvement in the metabolism of a large number of commonly prescribed drugs. CYP2D6 pharmacogenetics may then become a useful tool to predict drug-related side effects, interactions or therapeutic failures. However, a number of reasons appear to have made research into this field lag behind. The present review focuses on the relevance of genetics and environmental factors for determining debrisoquine hydroxylation phenotype, as well as the relevance of CYP2D6 genetic polymorphism in psychiatric patients treated with antipsychotic drugs.

Abstract
The CYP2D6 gene is highly polymorphic, causing absent (poor metabolizers), decreased, normal or increased enzyme activity (extensive and ultrarapid metabolizers). The genetic polymorphism of the CYP2D6 influences plasma concentration of a wide variety of drugs metabolized in the liver by the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 enzyme, including antipsychotic drugs used for schizophrenia treatment. Additionally, CYP2D6 is involved in the metabolism of endogenous substrates in the brain, and reported to be located in regions such as the cortex, hippocampus and cerebellum, which are impaired in schizophrenia. Moreover, recently we have found that CYP2D6 poor metabolizers are under-represented in a case-control association study of schizophrenia. Furthermore, null CYP2D6 activity in healthy volunteers is associated with personality characteristics of social cognitive anxiety, which may bear some resemblance to milder forms of psychotic-like symptoms. In keeping with this, CYP2D6 may influence, not only variability to drug response, but also vulnerability to disease in schizophrenia patients.

Abstract
Iloperidone is a new-generation atypical antipsychotic agent, acting as a serotonin/dopamine (5-HT(2A)/D(2)) antagonist, under development by Vanda Pharmaceuticals for the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and other psychiatric conditions. Chemically, iloperidone is a benzisoxazole, like risperidone, and shows a multiple receptor binding profile, sharing this feature with the other atypical antipsychotic agents. Administered orally, the drug is highly bound to plasma proteins and extensively metabolised. Several clinical trials have been carried out, to check efficacy, safety and side effects. In order to introduce iloperidone as an agent for the treatment of schizophrenia, a short overview of the disease and of the most important antipsychotic drugs available or under development will be reported. Iloperidone pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics are presented herein, together with an evaluation of clinical safety and efficacy results.

Abstract
The polymorphic nature of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes affects individual drug response and adverse reactions to a great extent. This variation includes copy number variants (CNV), missense mutations, insertions and deletions, and mutations affecting gene expression and activity of mainly CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP2D6, which have been extensively studied and well characterized. CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 expression varies significantly, and the cause has been suggested to be mainly of genetic origin but the exact molecular basis remains unknown. We present a review of the major polymorphic CYP alleles and conclude that this variability is of greatest importance for treatment with several antidepressants, antipsychotics, antiulcer drugs, anti-HIV drugs, anticoagulants, antidiabetics and the anticancer drug tamoxifen. We also present tables illustrating the relative importance of specific common CYP alleles for the extent of enzyme functionality. The field of pharmacoepigenetics has just opened, and we present recent examples wherein gene methylation influences the expression of CYP. In addition microRNA (miRNA) regulation of P450 has been described. Furthermore, this review updates the field with respect to regulatory initiatives and experience of predictive pharmacogenetic investigations in the clinics. It is concluded that the pharmacogenetic knowledge regarding CYP polymorphism now developed to a stage where it can be implemented in drug development and in clinical routine for specific drug treatments, thereby improving the drug response and reducing costs for drug treatment.
