Abstract
PURPOSE
Tegoprazan is a potassium-competitive acid blocker used for gastric acid suppression and may be used with NSAIDs to reduce gastrointestinal adverse effects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetic interaction between tegoprazan and commonly used NSAIDS, namely, naproxen, aceclofenac, and celecoxib.
METHODS
An open-label, 3-cohort, randomized, multiple-dose, 3-way crossover study was conducted in healthy male subjects. In cohort 1, tegoprazan (50-mg tablet, once daily) and naproxen (500-mg tablet, twice daily) were administered separately or concurrently for 7 days in each period. In cohort 2, tegoprazan and aceclofenac (100-mg tablet, twice daily) were administered separately or concurrently for 7 days in each period. In cohort 3, tegoprazan and celecoxib (200-mg capsule, twice daily) were administered separately or concurrently for 7 days in each period. Pharmacokinetic blood samples were collected up to 24 hours after the last dose.
FINDINGS
Seventeen subjects from cohort 1, sixteen subjects from cohort 2, and thirteen subjects from cohort 3 were included in the pharmacokinetic analysis. In cohort 1, the geometric least squares mean ratios (90% CIs) for AUCτ (AUC profiles over the dosing interval) and Css,max (Cmax at steady state) were 1.01 (0.91-1.12) and 0.99 (0.83-1.17) for tegoprazan, and 1.00 (0.97-1.03) and 1.04 (0.99-1.09) for naproxen, respectively. The values in cohort 2 were 1.03 (0.93-1.13) and 0.94 (0.86-1.04) for tegoprazan, and 1.06 (1.00-1.12) and 1.31 (1.08-1.60) for aceclofenac. The values in cohort 3 were 1.01 (0.86-1.18) and 1.02 (0.87-1.19) for tegoprazan, and 1.08 (0.96-1.22) and 1.18 (0.97-1.43) for celecoxib.
IMPLICATIONS
Changes in the maximum aceclofenac or celecoxib concentrations were detected after concurrent administration with tegoprazan, which were considered mainly due to the pharmacodynamic effect of tegoprazan. Because systemic drug exposure (shown as AUCτ) was unchanged after concurrent administration of any 3 NSAIDs with tegoprazan, the increase in aceclofenac or celecoxib Css,max when administered with tegoprazan would not be clinically significant in practice.
