Is Higher Docetaxel Clearance in Prostate Cancer Patients Explained by Higher CYP3A? An In Vivo Phenotyping Study with Midazolam. J Clin Pharmacol 2024; 64:155-163. [PMID: 37789682 DOI: 10.1002/jcph.2362] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/05/2023]
Abstract
Patients with prostate cancer (PCa) have a lower docetaxel exposure for both intravenous (1.8-fold) and oral administration (2.4-fold) than patients with other solid cancers, which could influence efficacy and toxicity. An altered metabolism by cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) due to castration status might explain the observed difference in docetaxel pharmacokinetics. In this in vivo phenotyping, pharmacokinetic study, CYP3A activity defined by midazolam clearance (CL) was compared between patients with PCa and male patients with other solid tumors. All patients with solid tumors who did not use CYP3A-modulating drugs were eligible for participation. Patients received 2 mg midazolam orally and 1 mg midazolam intravenously on 2 consecutive days. Plasma concentrations were measured with a validated liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method. Genotyping was performed for CYP3A4 and CYP3A5. Nine patients were included in each group. Oral midazolam CL was 1.26-fold higher in patients with PCa compared to patients with other solid tumors (geometric mean [coefficient of variation], 94.1 [33.5%] L/h vs 74.4 [39.1%] L/h, respectively; P = .08). Intravenous midazolam CL did not significantly differ between the 2 groups (P = .93). Moreover, the metabolic ratio of midazolam to 1'-hydroxy midazolam did not differ between the 2 groups for both oral administration (P = .67) and intravenous administration (P = .26). CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 genotypes did not influence midazolam pharmacokinetics. The observed difference in docetaxel pharmacokinetics between both patient groups therefore appears to be explained neither by a difference in midazolam CL nor by a difference in metabolic conversion rate of midazolam.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Midazolam is the preferred clinical probe drug for assessing CYP3A activity. We have previously shown substantial intraindividual variability in midazolam absolute bioavailability and clearance in patients with obesity before and after weight loss induced by gastric bypass or a strict diet. The objective was to describe intraindividual variability in absolute bioavailability and clearance of midazolam in healthy individuals without obesity. METHODS This study included 33 healthy volunteers [28 ± 8 years, 21% males, body mass index (BMI) 23 ± 2.5 kg/m2] subjected to four pharmacokinetic investigations over a 2-month period (weeks 0, 2, 4, and 8). Semi-simultaneous oral (0 h) and intravenous (2 h later) midazolam dosing was used to assess absolute bioavailability and clearance of midazolam. RESULTS At baseline, mean absolute bioavailability and clearance were 46 ± 18% and 31 ± 10 L/h, respectively. The mean coefficient of variation (CV, %) for absolute bioavailability and clearance of midazolam was 26 ± 15% and 20 ± 10%, respectively. Approximately one-third had a CV > 30% for absolute bioavailability, while 13% had a CV > 30% for clearance. CONCLUSIONS On average, intraindividual variability in absolute bioavailability and clearance of midazolam was low to moderate; however, especially absolute bioavailability showed considerable variability in a relatively large proportion of the individuals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tacrolimus is a calcineurin inhibitor with a strong efficacy in prevention of graft rejection after transplantation. It is well known that cytochrome P450 3A5 (CYP3A5) has a high metabolic capacity for tacrolimus, and mutations in human cytochrome P450 oxidoreductase (POR) cause altered CYP3A5 activity. Recently, clinical studies have revealed that POR*28 contributes enhanced tacrolimus clearance in CYP3A5 expressers. A503V is an amino acid sequence variant encoded by POR*28. In this study, we first evaluated the impact of A503V on CYP3A5 activity with tacrolimus as the substrate in vitro. RESEARCH DESIGN & METHODS Wild-type (WT) and A503V POR, with WT CYP3A5 were expressed in recombinant HepG2 cells and reconstituted proteins. Michaelis constant (Km) and maximum velocity (Vmax) of CYP3A5 with tacrolimus as substrates were determined, and catalytic efficiency is expressed as Vmax/Km. RESULTS WT and A503V POR both down-regulated the CYP3A5 mRNA expression, and WT POR rather than A503V down-regulated the protein expression of CYP3A5 in recombinant HepG2 cells. Compared with WT POR, A503V increased metabolism of tacrolimus by CYP3A5 in both cellular and protein level. CONCLUSION A503V can affect CYP3A5-catalyzed tacrolimus metabolism in vitro, which suggests that A503V has the potential to serve as a biomarker for tacrolimus treatment in transplantation recipients.

Abstract
PURPOSE Variability in cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) metabolism is mainly caused by non-genetic factors, hence providing a need for accurate phenotype biomarkers. Although 4β-hydroxycholesterol (4βOHC) is a promising endogenous CYP3A4 biomarker, additional investigations are required to evaluate its ability to predict CYP3A4 activity. This study investigated the correlations between 4βOHC concentrations and hepatic and intestinal CYP3A4 protein expression and ex vivo microsomal activity in paired liver and jejunum samples, as well as in vivo CYP3A4 phenotyping (midazolam) in patients with a wide body weight range. METHODS The patients (n = 96; 78 with obesity and 18 normal or overweight individuals) were included from the COCKTAIL-study (NCT02386917). Plasma samples for analysis of 4βOHC and midazolam concentrations, and liver (n = 56) and jejunal (n = 38) biopsies were obtained. The biopsies for determination of CYP3A4 protein concentration and microsomal activity were obtained during gastric bypass or cholecystectomy. In vivo CYP3A4 phenotyping was performed using semi-simultaneous oral (1.5 mg) and intravenous (1.0 mg) midazolam. RESULTS 4βOHC concentrations were positively correlated with hepatic microsomal CYP3A4 activity (ρ = 0.53, p < 0.001), and hepatic CYP3A4 concentrations (ρ = 0.30, p = 0.027), but not with intestinal CYP3A4 concentrations (ρ = 0.18, p = 0.28) or intestinal microsomal CYP3A4 activity (ρ = 0.15, p = 0.53). 4βOHC concentrations correlated weakly with midazolam absolute bioavailability (ρ = - 0.23, p = 0.027) and apparent oral clearance (ρ = 0.28, p = 0.008), but not with systemic clearance (ρ = - 0.03, p = 0.81). CONCLUSION These findings suggest that 4βOHC concentrations reflect hepatic, but not intestinal, CYP3A4 activity. Further studies should investigate the potential value of 4βOHC as an endogenous biomarker for individual dose requirements of intravenously administered CYP3A4 substrate drugs.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, such as CYP3A4, and CYP3A5, P450 oxidoreductase (POR), peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha (PPAR-alpha), and drug transporter (ABCB1) were observed to influence concentrations of immunosuppressants (cyclosporine, everolimus, sirolimus, and tacrolimus) and outcomes in renal transplants. We carried out the present study to evaluate the prevalence and impact of these single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in adult renal transplants. SNPs were evaluated using commercial TaqMan® assays. Serum drug concentrations were estimated using immunoassays. One hundred and forty-six patients were recruited. SNPs in CYP3A5*3 were significantly associated with greater dose-adjusted cyclosporine and tacrolimus concentrations. SNPs in POR*28 were observed with significantly lower dose-adjusted concentrations, particularly with cyclosporine and tacrolimus. ABCB1 homozygous polymorphisms were observed with significantly lower time spent in the therapeutic range with cyclosporine and everolimus/sirolimus. Cyclosporine was observed in a significantly greater proportion of patients with elevated GGT, and SNPs in PPAR-alpha were significantly associated with an increased risk of this adverse event. Hypertriglyceridemia with everolimus was significantly associated with POR*28 polymorphisms. There is a need to validate the influence of these SNPs in a prospective study and develop an algorithm predicting the achievement of target concentrations.

Abstract
The immunosuppressant tacrolimus is the primary drug used in kidney transplantation to prevent organ rejection. A sensitive ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed to measure tacrolimus and its three known mono-demethylated metabolites 13-O-desmethyl tacrolimus (M1), 31-O-desmethyl tacrolimus (M2), 15-O-desmethyl tacrolimus (M3). By generating the metabolites to use as standards after incubation of tacrolimus with rat liver microsomes, we discovered multiple M1 peaks which we identified as two tautomers of M1. The M1 tautomer II was also successfully validated in this method. The separation and purification of the metabolites and tautomers were performed by semi-preparative liquid chromatography with UV-detection, while confirmation was done by UPLC-MS/MS and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance. For quantification an easy sample preparation was performed with zinc sulfate and acetonitrile as cell lyses and precipitation. Detection was performed in positive electrospray ionization. By better characterization of the metabolites and the tautomers, we could possibly explain insight into the clinical condition and thus adjust the immunosuppressant therapy individually per patient. Calibration curves were linear for all compounds. Precision was assessed according to the NCCLS EP5-T guideline, being below 15 % and mean recoveries were between 93 and 110 % for tacrolimus, its three metabolites and the M1 tautomer II. The validated method was successfully applied in a cohort of 20 patients after kidney transplantation.

Abstract
Genetic variation in the CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 (CYP3A4/5) genes, which encode the key enzymes in tacrolimus metabolism, is associated with tacrolimus clearance and dose requirements. Tacrolimus has a narrow therapeutic index with high intra- and intersubject variability, in part because of genetic variation. High tacrolimus clearance and low trough concentration are associated with a greater risk for rejection, whereas high troughs are associated with calcineurin-induced toxicity. The objective of this study was to develop a model of tacrolimus clearance with a dosing equation accounting for genotypes and clinical factors in adult kidney transplant recipients of European ancestry that could preemptively guide dosing. Recipients receiving immediate-release tacrolimus for maintenance immunosuppression from 2 multicenter studies were included. Participants in the GEN03 study were used for tacrolimus model development (n = 608 recipients) and was validated by prediction performance in the DeKAF Genomics study (n = 1361 recipients). Nonlinear mixed-effects modeling was used to develop the apparent oral tacrolimus clearance (CL/F) model. CYP3A4/5 genotypes and clinical covariates were tested for their influence on CL/F. The predictive performance of the model was determined by assessing the bias (median prediction error [ME] and median percentage error [MPE]) and the precision (root median squared error [RMSE]) of the model. CYP3A5*3, CYP3A4*22, corticosteroids, calcium channel blocker and antiviral drug use, age, and diabetes significantly contributed to the interindividual variability of oral tacrolimus apparent clearance. The bias (ME, MPE) and precision (RMSE) of the final model was good, 0.49 ng/mL, 6.5%, and 3.09 ng/mL, respectively. Prospective testing of this equation is warranted.

Functional CYP3A variants affecting tacrolimus trough blood concentrations in Chinese renal transplant recipients. THE PHARMACOGENOMICS JOURNAL 2021; 21:376-389. [PMID: 33649515 DOI: 10.1038/s41397-021-00216-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2020] [Revised: 01/07/2021] [Accepted: 01/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/31/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to identify novel genetic variants affecting tacrolimus trough blood concentrations. We analyzed the association between 58 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) across the CYP3A gene cluster and the log-transformed tacrolimus concentration/dose ratio (log (C0/D)) in 819 renal transplant recipients (Discovery cohort). Multivariate linear regression was used to test for associations between tacrolimus log (C0/D) and clinical factors. Luciferase reporter gene assays were used to evaluate the functions of select SNPs. Associations of putative functional SNPs with log (C0/D) were further tested in 631 renal transplant recipients (Replication cohort). Nine SNPs were significantly associated with tacrolimus log (C0/D) after adjustment for CYP3A5*3 and clinical factors. Dual luciferase reporter assays indicated that the rs4646450 G allele and rs3823812 T allele were significantly associated with increased normalized luciferase activity ratios (p < 0.01). Moreover, CYP3A7*2 was associated with higher TAC log(C0/D) in the group of CYP3A5 expressers. Age, serum creatinine and hematocrit were significantly associated with tacrolimus log (C0/D). CYP3A7*2, rs4646450, and rs3823812 are proposed as functional SNPs affecting tacrolimus trough blood concentrations in Chinese renal transplant recipients. Clinical factors also significantly affect tacrolimus metabolism.

Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate tacrolimus population pharmacokinetics and investigate factors that explain tacrolimus variability in adult heart transplant patients. Methods: A total of 707 tacrolimus concentrations from 107 adult heart transplant patients were included in model development. The effects of demographic, clinical factors and CYP3A5 genotype on tacrolimus clearance were evaluated using a nonlinear mixed-effects modeling. 24 patients with 106 tacrolimus concentrations were used for external validation. Results: The pharmacokinetic data were adequately described by a one-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination. The estimated apparent clearance and volume of distribution of tacrolimus were 13.7 l/h and 791 l, respectively. Tacrolimus apparent clearance was significantly reduced in CYP3A5 nonexpressers (CYP3A5*3/*3), concomitant with azole antifungal drugs and Wuzhi capsule (WZ). A predictive performance was further confirmed in an external validation by Bayesian estimation. Recommended dose regimens were obtained by simulations based on the established model. Conclusion: This is the first population pharmacokinetic study conducted in Chinese heart transplant recipients. These findings are of great importance with regards to tacrolimus dose optimization in heart transplantation patients.

Abstract
Pharmacokinetic parameters of selective probe substrates are used to quantify the activity of an individual pharmacokinetic process (PKP) and the effect of perpetrator drugs thereon in clinical drug-drug interaction (DDI) studies. For instance, oral caffeine is used to quantify hepatic CYP1A2 activity, and oral dagibatran etexilate for intestinal P-glycoprotein (P-gp) activity. However, no probe substrate depends exclusively on the PKP it is meant to quantify. Lack of selectivity for a given enzyme/transporter and expression of the respective enzyme/transporter at several sites in the human body are the main challenges. Thus, a detailed understanding of the role of individual PKPs for the pharmacokinetics of any probe substrate is essential to allocate the effect of a perpetrator drug to a specific PKP; this is a prerequisite for reliably informed pharmacokinetic models that will allow for the quantitative prediction of perpetrator effects on therapeutic drugs, also in respective patient populations not included in DDI studies.

Abstract
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 engineering of the CYP3A5 *3 locus (rs776746) in human liver cell line HuH-7 (CYP3A5 *3/*3) has led to three CYP3A5 *1 cell lines by deletion of the exon 3B splice junction or point mutation. Cell lines CYP3A5 *1/*3 sd (single deletion), CYP3A5 *1/*1 dd (double deletion), or CYP3A5 *1/*3 pm (point mutation) expressed the CYP3A5 *1 mRNA and had elevated CYP3A5 mRNA (P < 0.0005 for all engineered cell lines) and protein expression compared with HuH-7. In metabolism assays, HuH-7 had less tacrolimus (all P < 0.05) or midazolam (MDZ) (all P < 0.005) disappearance than all engineered cell lines. HuH-7 had less 1-OH MDZ (all P < 0.0005) or 4-OH (all P < 0.005) production in metabolism assays than all bioengineered cell lines. We confirmed CYP3A5 metabolic activity with the CYP3A4 selective inhibitor CYP3CIDE. This is the first report of genomic CYP3A5 bioengineering in human cell lines with drug metabolism analysis.

Abstract
AIMS The CYP3A metric 4β-hydroxycholesterol (4βOHC) has been shown to correlate with tacrolimus steady-state apparent oral clearance (CL/F). Recently, pretransplant 4βOHC was shown not to predict tacrolimus CL/F after transplantation in a cohort of renal recipients (n = 79). The goal of the current study was determine whether these findings could be validated in a substantially larger cohort. METHODS In a retrospective analysis of 279 renal recipients, tacrolimus trough concentrations (C0), daily dose, haematocrit and other relevant covariates were registered every day for the first 14 days after transplantation. 4βOHC and cholesterol were quantified on plasma collected immediately pretransplant using liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry. Patients were genotyped for CYP3A5*1 and CYP3A4*22. RESULTS A total of 3551 tacrolimus C0 concentrations were registered. In a linear mixed model for the 14-day period, determinants of tacrolimus C0 were CYP3A5 genotype, haematocrit, age and weight (overall R2 = 0.179). Determinants of daily dose were CYP3A5 genotype, age, methylprednisolone dose, tacrolimus formulation, ALT and estimated glomerular filtration rate (overall R2 = 0.242). Considering each of the first 5 days separately, 4βOHC had a limited effect on tacrolimus C0 on day 3 only (-1.00 ng ml-1 per ln, P = 0.035) but not on any other day, and no effect on dose or C0/dose. During the first 5 days, haematocrit and age, which were previously established as determinants of tacrolimus disposition under steady-state conditions, never explained more than 17.7% of between-subject variability in tacrolimus C0/dose. CONCLUSIONS The CYP3A metric 4βOHC cannot be used to predict tacrolimus dose requirements in the first days after transplantation.

Abstract
Kidney and pancreas transplantation have helped transform the lives of people with end-stage renal failure and individuals with type 1 diabetes who have poor glycaemic control/severe secondary complications, respectively. Despite an improvement in immunosuppressive regimes, operative techniques and decreased initial rejection rates, there has been little improvement in long-term graft survival rates over the past decade. Whilst limited progress has been made in establishing clinical markers of graft function, several genetic markers of long-term graft function have been identified. These genetic markers have the potential to (i) assist in selecting marginal donor organs for transplantation, (ii) provide better understanding of the mechanisms behind graft loss enabling identification of new, or repurposing, current treatments to extend graft function and (iii) provide a window of opportunity to identify and treat individuals before graft failure has occurred. This review will discuss the different genetic variants screened for a role in predicting transplant longevity, examine their findings and limitations and introduce where the future of genetic research within the transplantation field lies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study is to analyze concentration changes of the prolonged-release and shorter-acting formulation of tacrolimus in patients with different CYP3A5 genotypes after kidney transplantation. METHODS A single-factor retrospective analysis was performed in patients underwent allogeneic kidney transplantation with postoperative administration of Advagraf or Prograf in our hospital from May 2013 to June 2014. The CYP3A5 genotypes were determined, and tacrolimus trough concentrations in whole blood were measured within 28days after transplantation. The rates of acute rejection rate, chronic rejection and infection were recorded and compared after one year follow-up after surgery. RESULTS The study included 106 patients administered Advagraf (45 cases) or Prograf (61 cases). The low expression genotype of CYP3A5 was detected in 40 (37.7%) patients. A higher dose of Advagraf was required to increase the tacrolimus trough concentrations within 21days after transplantation. Moreover, a higher dose for Advagraf than Prograf was required to increase the tacrolimus trough concentrations in low expression patients. In the low expression patients, Prograf more frequently achieved the target tacrolimus trough concentrations within seven days after transplantation (five days: 7.14% vs. 84%, P=0.001; seven days: 33.33% vs. 77.78%, P=0.001). The patient and kidney graft survival rates one year after transplantation both were 100%. The estimated glomerular filtration rate showed no significant difference between different CYP3A5 phenotypes or formulations of tacrolimus (P>0.05). However, the incidence of infections was higher in the Advagraf group in low expression patients (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Tacrolimus of different formulations had different impact on patients with different CYP3A5 genotypes after kidney transplantation.

Abstract
AIMS We compared the CYP3A4 metrics weight-corrected midazolam apparent oral clearance (MDZ Cl/F/W) and plasma 4β-hydroxycholesterol/cholesterol (4β-OHC/C) as they relate to tacrolimus (TAC) Cl/F/W in renal transplant recipients. METHODS For a cohort of 147 patients, 8 h area under the curve (AUC) values for TAC and oral MDZ were calculated besides measurement of 4β-OHC/C. A subgroup of 70 patients additionally underwent intravenous erythromycin breath test (EBT) and were administered the intravenous MDZ probe. All patients were genotyped for common polymorphisms in CYP3A4, CYP3A5 and P450 oxidoreductase, among others. RESULTS MDZ Cl/F/W, 4β-OHC/C/W, EBT and TAC Cl/F/W were all moderately correlated (r = 0.262-0.505). Neither MDZ Cl/F/W nor 4β-OHC/C/W explained variability in TAC Cl/F/W in CYP3A5 expressors (n = 29). For CYP3A5 non-expressors (n = 118), factors explaining variability in TAC Cl/F/W in a MDZ-based model were MDZ Cl/F/W (R2 = 0.201), haematocrit (R2 = 0.139), TAC formulation (R2 = 0.107) and age (R2 = 0.032; total R2 = 0.479). In the 4β-OHC/C/W-based model, predictors were 4β-OHC/C/W (R2 = 0.196), haematocrit (R2 = 0.059) and age (R2 = 0.057; total R2 = 0.312). When genotype information was ignored, predictors of TAC Cl/F/W in the whole cohort were 4β-OHC/C/W (R2 = 0.167), MDZ Cl/F/W (R2 = 0.045); Tac QD formulation (R2 = 0.036), and haematocrit (R2 = 0.032; total R2 = 0.315). 4β-OHC/C/W, but not MDZ Cl/F/W, was higher in CYP3A5 expressors because it was higher in CYP3A4*1b carriers, which were almost all CYP3A5 expressors. CONCLUSIONS A MDZ-based model explained more variability in TAC clearance in CYP3A5 non-expressors. However, 4β-OHC/C/W was superior in a model in which no genotype information was available, likely because 4β-OHC/C/W was influenced by the CYP3A4*1b polymorphism.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Co-medication, gene polymorphisms and co-morbidity are main causes for high variability in expression and function of the CYP3A isoenzymes. Pharmacokinetic variability is a major source of interindividual variability of drug effect and response of CYP3A substrates. While CYP3A genotyping is of limited use, direct testing of enzyme function ('phenotyping') may be more promising to achieve individualized dosing of CYP3A substrates. AREAS COVERED We will discuss available phenotyping strategies for CYP3A isoenzymes and causes of intra- and interindividual variability of CYP3A. The impact of phenotyping on the dose selection and pharmacokinetics of CYP3A substrates (docetaxel, irinotecan, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, ciclosporin, tacrolimus) are reviewed. Pubmed searches were conducted during March-November 2015 to retrieve articles related to CYP3A enzyme, phenotyping, drug interactions with CYP3A probe substrates, and phenotyping-guided dosing algorithms. EXPERT OPINION While ample data is available on the choice appropriate phenotyping drugs (midazolam, alfentanil, aplrazolam, buspirone, triazolam), less clinical trial data is available concerning strategies to usefully guide dosing in the clinical practice. Implementation into the clinical routine necessitates further research to identify (1) an easy-to-use and cheap test for CYP3A activity that (2) adequately predicts drug exposure to (3) allow a sound decision on dose adaptation and hence (4) improve clinical outcome and/or reduce the intensity or frequency of adverse drug effects.

Abstract
Tacrolimus is dependent on CYP3A5 enzyme for metabolism. Expression of the CYP3A5 enzyme is controlled by several alleles including CYP3A5*1, CYP3A5*3, CYP3A5*6 and CYP3A5*7. African Americans (AAs) have on average higher tacrolimus dose requirements than Caucasians; however, some have requirements similar to Caucasians. Studies in AAs have primarily evaluated the CYP3A5*3 variant; however, there are other common nonfunctional variants in AAs (CYP3A5*6 and CYP3A5*7) that do not occur in Caucasians. These variants are associated with lower dose requirements and may explain why some AAs are metabolically similar to Caucasians. We created a tacrolimus clearance model in 354 AAs using a development and validation cohort. Time after transplant, steroid and antiviral use, age and CYP3A5*1, *3, *6 and *7 alleles were significant toward clearance. This study is the first to develop an AA-specific genotype-guided tacrolimus dosing model to personalize therapy.

Progressive decline in tacrolimus clearance after renal transplantation is partially explained by decreasing CYP3A4 activity and increasing haematocrit. Br J Clin Pharmacol 2015; 80:548-59. [PMID: 26114223 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.12703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2015] [Revised: 06/12/2015] [Accepted: 06/21/2015] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS The long-term disposition of tacrolimus following kidney transplantation is characterized by a gradual decrease in dose requirements and increase in dose-corrected exposure. This phenomenon has been attributed to a progressive decline in cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) activity, although this has never been demonstrated in vivo. METHODS Sixty-five tacrolimus- and 10 cyclosporine-treated renal transplant recipients underwent pharmacokinetic testing at day 7 and months 1, 3, 6 and 12 after transplantation, including 8-h area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) for tacrolimus or cyclosporine and assessment of CYP3A4 activity using oral and intravenous midazolam (MDZ) drug probes. RESULTS Tacrolimus clearance decreased gradually throughout the entire first year but only in CYP3A5*3/*3 homozygous recipients (25.6 ± 11.1 l h(-1) at day 7; 17 ± 9.1 l h(-1) at month 12; P < 0.001). In mixed model analysis, decreasing CYP3A4 activity, measured by apparent oral MDZ clearance (924 ± 443 ml min(-1) at day 7 vs. 730 ± 344 ml min(-1) at month 1; P < 0.001), explained 55.4% of the decline in tacrolimus clearance in the first month. CYP3A4 activity decreased by 18.9 ml min(-1) for every milligram of methylprednisolone dose tapering within the first month; beyond this point it remained stable. A gradual rise in haematocrit throughout the entire first year explained 31.7% of the decrease in tacrolimus clearance in the first month and 23.6% of the decrease between months 1 and 12. Cyclosporine clearance did not change over time. CONCLUSIONS The maturation of tacrolimus disposition in the first year after renal transplantation observed in CYP3A5*3/*3 homozygous patients can partly be explained by a (steroid tapering-related) decline in CYP3A4 activity and a progressive increase in haematocrit.

Capability of utilizing CYP3A5 polymorphisms to predict therapeutic dosage of tacrolimus at early stage post-renal transplantation. Int J Mol Sci 2015; 16:1840-54. [PMID: 25594874 PMCID: PMC4307337 DOI: 10.3390/ijms16011840] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2014] [Accepted: 01/06/2015] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
While CYP3A5 polymorphisms are used to predict the initial dosage of tacrolimus therapy, the predictive capability of genetic information for dosing at early stage post-renal transplantation is unknown. We investigated the influence of polymorphisms over time. An initial oral dose of modified-release once-daily tacrolimus formulation (0.20 mg/kg) was administered to 50 Japanese renal transplant patients every 24 h. Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis for tacrolimus dosing was performed each week to determine the effect of patient clinical characteristics. The dose-adjusted trough concentration was approximately 70% higher for patients with the CYP3A5*3/*3 than patients with the CYP3A5*1 allele before the second pre-transplantation tacrolimus dose (0.97 (0.78–1.17) vs. 0.59 (0.45–0.87) ng/mL/mg; p < 0.001). The contribution of genetic factors (CYP3A5*1 or *3) for tacrolimus dosing showed increased variation from Day 14 to Day 28 after transplantation: 7.2%, 18.4% and 19.5% on Days 14, 21 and 28, respectively. The influence of CYP3A5 polymorphisms on the tacrolimus maintenance dosage became evident after Day 14 post-transplantation, although the tacrolimus dosage was determined based only on patient body weight for the first three days after surgery. Tacrolimus dosage starting with the initial administration should be individualized using the CYP3A5 genotype information.

Abstract
Purpose Tacrolimus (Tac) and cyclosporine (CsA) are mainly metabolized by CYP3A4 and CYP3A5. Several studies have demonstrated an association between the CYP3A5 genotype and Tac dose requirements. Recently, CYP3A4, PPARA, and POR gene variants have been shown to influence CYP3A metabolism. The present study investigated potential associations between CYP3A5*3, CYP3A4*22, PPARA c.209-1003G>A and c.208 + 3819A>G, and POR*28 alleles and dose-adjusted concentrations (C/D) of Tac and CsA in 177 renal transplant patients early post-transplant. Methods All patients (n = 177) were genotyped for CYP3A4*22, CYP3A5*3, POR*28, PPARA c.209-1003G>A, and PPARA c.208 + 3819A>G using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and melting curve analysis with allele-specific hybridization probes or PCR restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) methods. Drug concentrations and administered doses were retrospectively collected from patient charts at Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet, Norway. One steady-state concentration was collected for each patient. Results We confirmed a significant impact of the CYP3A5*3 allele on Tac exposure. Patients with POR*28 and PPARA variant alleles demonstrated 15 % lower (P = 0.04) and 19 % higher (P = 0.01) Tac C0/D respectively. CsA C2/D was 53 % higher among CYP3A4*22 carriers (P = 0.03). Conclusion The results support the use of pre-transplant CYP3A5 genotyping to improve initial dosing of Tac, and suggest that Tac dosing may be further individualized by additional POR and PPARA genotyping. Furthermore, initial CsA dosing may be improved by pre-transplant CYP3A4*22 determination.

The CYP3A4*22 C>T single nucleotide polymorphism is associated with reduced midazolam and tacrolimus clearance in stable renal allograft recipients. THE PHARMACOGENOMICS JOURNAL 2014; 15:144-52.

Abstract
Tacrolimus, a dual substrate of CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 has a narrow therapeutic index and is characterized by high between-subject variability in oral bioavailability. This study investigated the effects of the recently described CYP3A4*22 intron 6 C>T single nucleotide polymorphism on in vivo CYP3A4 activity as measured by midazolam (MDZ) clearance and tacrolimus pharmacokinetics in two cohorts of renal allograft recipients, taking into account the CYP3A5*1/*3 genotype and other determinants of drug disposition. In CYP3A5 non-expressers, the presence of one CYP3A4*22T-allele was associated with a 31.7-33.6% reduction in MDZ apparent oral clearance, reflecting reduced in vivo CYP3A4 activity. In addition, at ⩾12 months after transplantation, steady-state clearance of tacrolimus was 36.8% decreased compared with homozygous CYP3A4*22CC-wild type patients, leading to 50% lower dose requirements. Both concurrent observations in stable renal allograft recipients are consistent with a reduced in vivo CYP3A4 activity for the CYP3A4*22T-allele.
