Abstract
Although mRNA coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines have been reported for high effectiveness against symptoms, it remains unclear whether post-vaccination infections are less symptomatic than infections in vaccine-naive individuals. We included patients with COVID-19 diagnosed by polymerase chain reaction tests during Japan's alpha and delta variant epidemics. COVID-19 symptoms at approximately 4 weeks were compared based on COVID-19 vaccination status. In total, 398 cases (372 symptomatic and 26 asymptomatic; 286 unvaccinated, 66 vaccinated with one dose, and 46 with two doses) were analyzed. The most common symptoms were fever (78.4%), fatigue (78.4%), cough (74.4%), loss of taste or smell (62.8%), and headache (59.8%). Post-vaccination infections were significantly less likely to be symptomatic. Possible confounder-adjusted odds ratios of two vaccine doses against fatigue, dry eyes and mouth, insomnia, fever, shortness of breath, unusual muscle pains, and loss of taste or smell were 0.18 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.09-0.38), 0.22 (95% CI: 0.08-0.59), 0.33 (95% CI: 0.14-0.80), 0.31 (95% CI: 0.15-0.63), 0.36 (95% CI: 0.16-0.76), 0.40 (95% CI: 0.19-0.82), and 0.44 (95% CI: 0.22-0.87), respectively. Post-vaccination infections after two mRNA COVID-19 vaccine doses show milder and fewer symptoms than infections in unvaccinated patients, highlighting the effectiveness of vaccination.

Abstract
Background: In Japan, freeze-dried live attenuated varicella-zoster vaccine BIKEN is available for adults aged ≥50 years to prevent herpes zoster (HZ). A prospective cohort study of 1200 healthy adults and 300 patients with underlying illness confirmed vaccine safety between 2016 and 2017. However, evidence of vaccine effectiveness (VE) is limited. Methods: VE against HZ and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) was evaluated in the vaccinated cohort of the previous safety study in a follow-up study between 2021 and 2022 and compared with unvaccinated family members. Self-administered questionnaires determined retrospective experiences of HZ and PHN diagnosis. Logistic regression estimated the VE by calculating the outcome odds ratio (OR) in vaccinated vs. unvaccinated groups: VE = (1 - OR) × 100(%). Results: Overall, 1098 vaccinated and 518 unvaccinated subjects were analysed. Between 2016 and 2022, 26 vaccinated (2.4%) and 22 unvaccinated (4.2%) subjects reported HZ diagnosis, and 3 vaccinated (0.3%) and 2 unvaccinated (0.4%) subjects reported PHN. Adjusted VE against a clinical diagnosis was 41% for HZ [-6% to 67%], with marginal significance, and 16% [-408% to 86%] for PHN. Stratification by age, sex, or comorbidities had an adjusted VE against HZ of ~40%, which was similar between strata. Conclusion: Freeze-dried live attenuated varicella-zoster vaccine reduces the risk of HZ regardless of age, sex, or comorbidities.

Abstract
The concentration of cerebrospinal fluid total protein (CSF-TP) is important for the diagnosis of neurological emergencies. Recently, some Western studies have shown that the current upper reference limit of CSF-TP is quite low for older patients. However, little is reported about the concentration of CSF-TP in the older Asian population. In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the CSF-TP concentrations in healthy older Japanese volunteers. CSF samples in 69 healthy Japanese volunteers (age range: 55–73 years) were collected by lumbar puncture, and the data of CSF were retrospectively analyzed. The mean (standard deviation) CSF-TP was 41.7 (12.3) mg/dL. The older group (≥65 years old) had higher CSF-TP concentration than the younger group (55–64 years old). The 2.5th percentile and 97.5th percentile of CSF-TP were estimated as 22.5 and 73.2 mg/dL, respectively, which were higher than the current reference range in Japan (10–40 mg/dL). Conclusions: The reference interval of CSF-TP in the older population should be reconsidered for the precise diagnosis of neurological emergencies.

Abstract
Body temperature is important for diagnosing illnesses. However, its assessment is often a difficult task, considering the large individual differences. Although 37 °C has been the gold standard of body temperature for over a century, the temperature of modern people is reportedly decreasing year by year. However, a mean axillary temperature of 36.89 ± 0.34 °C reported in 1957 is still cited in Japan. To assess the measured axillary temperature appropriately, understanding its distribution in modern people is important. This study retrospectively analyzed 2454 axillary temperature measurement data of healthy Japanese adults in 2019 (age range, 20–79 years; 2258 males). Their mean temperature was 36.47 ± 0.28 °C (36.48 ± 0.27 °C in males and 36.35 ± 0.31 °C in females). Approximately 5% of the 20–39-year-old males had body temperature ≥37 °C, whereas 8% had a temperature ≥ 37 °C in the afternoon. However, none of the subjects aged ≥50 years reported body temperature ≥37 °C. In multivariable regression analysis, age, blood pressure, pulse rate, and measurement time of the day were associated with axillary temperature. Our data showed that the body temperature of modern Japanese adults was lower than that reported previously. When assessing body temperature, the age, blood pressure, pulse rate, and measurement time of the day should be considered.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a serious public health problem worldwide. In general, healthcare workers are considered to be at higher risk of COVID-19 infection. However, the prevalence of COVID-19 among healthcare workers in Japan is not well characterized. In this study, we aimed to examine the seroprevalence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) antibodies among 2160 healthcare workers in hospitals and clinics that are not designated to treat COVID-19 patients in Japan. The prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 immunoglobulin G was 1.2% in August and October 2020 (during and after the second wave of the pandemic in Japan), which is relatively higher than that in the general population in Japan (0.03-0.91%). Because of the higher risk of COVID-19 infection, healthcare workers should be the top priority for further social support and vaccination against SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS TAS-303, which selectively inhibits noradrenaline reuptake, was developed for treating stress urinary incontinence (SUI). The proximal urethra mainly comprises smooth muscle fibers in which α1 adrenergic receptors are abundant. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of TAS-303 on urethral function and its safety profile in female patients with SUI. METHODS In total, 16 women (age, 20-64 years) with SUI and > 5.0 g of leakage in the 1-h pad test at screening were randomized and administered the assigned treatment in a double-blind manner. The primary end point was change in the maximal urethral closure pressure (MUCP) at 6 h post-dose. The secondary end point was change in the urethral closure pressure of the entire urethra and each urethral region (proximal, middle, and distal) at 6 h post-dose. The results were analyzed using a t-test. RESULTS The mean change ± standard deviation in MUCP at 6 h post-dose was 3.473 ± 12.154 cmH2O for TAS-303 and 2.615 ± 9.794 cmH2O for placebo (between-group difference: 0.858 cmH2O, P = 0.8047). The mean changes ± standard deviation in urethral closure pressure of the proximal urethra at 6 h after the administration of TAS-303 18 mg and placebo were 3.863 ± 10.941 and 1.634 ± 12.093, respectively (between-group difference: 2.229 cmH2O, P = 0.5976). CONCLUSIONS No significant difference in MUCP and urethral closure pressure was found between TAS-303 and placebo. However, the change in the proximal urethral closure pressure with TAS-303 was larger than that with placebo. This suggests that TAS-303 has pharmacological effects on urethral sphincteric function.

Abstract
Tezepelumab, a human immunoglobulin G2 monoclonal antibody against thymic stromal lymphopoietin, is currently under clinical development for the treatment of severe, uncontrolled asthma. This phase 1, randomized, placebo-controlled, single-ascending-dose study assessed the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of subcutaneous tezepelumab in healthy Japanese men. Participants were assigned to 1 of 3 tezepelumab dose cohorts (35, 105, or 280 mg; n = 8 per cohort) and randomized (6:2) to receive a single subcutaneous dose of tezepelumab or placebo, with a follow-up period of 84 to 112 days. The overall incidences and severities of treatment-emergent adverse events were similar across tezepelumab doses and between the tezepelumab and placebo groups. Tezepelumab was absorbed slowly, reaching a maximum serum concentration (mean, 5.2-39.7 µg/mL) after 7 to 10 days. Area under the concentration-time curve (mean, 207.2-1612.0 µg · day /mL) increased in an approximate dose-proportional manner. Tezepelumab had a long terminal serum half-life (mean, 23.9-26.3 days) and a small apparent distribution volume, suggesting limited distribution into peripheral tissues. No participants developed anti-tezepelumab antibodies. Single-dose, subcutaneous administration of tezepelumab 35 to 280 mg resulted in an acceptable safety profile with linear pharmacokinetics in healthy Japanese men. No clear differences in tezepelumab safety and pharmacokinetics between Japanese and non-Japanese populations were identified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For the 2017-18 influenza season, A/Saitama/103/2014 (CEXP-002) (Saitama strain) was antigenically more similar to prior circulating strains than A/Hong Kong/4801/2014 (X-263) (Hong Kong strain) in a ferret model and was selected as the A(H3N2) vaccine virus strain in Japan. However, the Saitama strain grew poorly, and the Japanese government switched to the Hong Kong strain, raising public concerns of poor effectiveness. To enhance understanding of the correlation between antigenicity in experimental models and immunogenicity, as a surrogate measure of vaccine effectiveness, in the human population, we compared the immunogenicity of specially-prepared single dose monovalent influenza A(H3N2) vaccines containing the Saitama or the Hong Kong strain. METHODS A randomized controlled trial of 100 healthy adults aged 20-64 years (n = 50/group) was conducted. Virus neutralization assay was performed on sera from days 0 (pre-vaccination) and 21 (post-vaccination). Geometric mean titer (GMT), mean fold rise (MFR), seroconversion proportion (SCP), and seroprotection proportion (SPP) were calculated for vaccine strains and a representative circulating A(H3N2) virus strain (A/Osaka/188/2017). RESULTS For the Hong Kong strain, post-vaccination GMT was significantly higher in the Hong Kong vaccine recipients (1:546 vs 1:260, p < 0.01), but MFR, SCP, and SPP were similar for both vaccine groups. For the Saitama strain, post-vaccination GMT (1:116 vs 1:61, p = 0.01) and SPP (86% vs 68%, p = 0.03) were significantly higher in the Hong Kong vaccine recipients, but MFR and SCP were similar for both vaccine groups. Against A/Osaka/188/2017, post-vaccination GMT and MFR were similar in both vaccine groups, but SCP (32% vs 4%, p < 0.01) and SPP (28% vs. 6%, p < 0.01) were significantly higher in the Hong Kong vaccine recipients. CONCLUSION The Hong Kong vaccine induced better or equivalent immunogenicity in comparison to the Saitama vaccine. Our trial showed that antigenic similarity in experimental models does not necessarily correlate with immunogenicity in the human population. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION UMIN000029293.

Abstract
Background To investigate the effects of coadministration of esaxerenone with amlodipine on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of each drug, and of esaxerenone on the PK of digoxin. Methods In three open-label, single-sequence, crossover studies, healthy Japanese males received single oral doses of esaxerenone 2.5 mg (Days 1, 15), with amlodipine 10 mg/day (Days 8–18) (Study 1, N = 24); single doses of amlodipine 2.5 mg (Days 1, 21), with esaxerenone 5 mg/day (Days 8–25) (Study 2; N = 20); or digoxin 0.25 mg/day (Days 1–15) with esaxerenone 5 mg/day (Days 11–15) (Study 3; N = 20). PK parameters and safety were assessed. Results Study 1: esaxerenone peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and time to Cmax were unaltered by amlodipine coadministration, but mean half-life was slightly prolonged from 18.5 to 20.9 h. Geometric least-squares mean (GLSM) ratios for Cmax, area under the plasma concentration–time curve (AUC) from zero to last measurable concentration and from zero to infinity for esaxerenone + amlodipine versus esaxerenone were 0.958, 1.154, and 1.173, respectively. Study 2: corresponding GLSM ratios for amlodipine + esaxerenone versus amlodipine were 1.099, 1.185, and 1.214. Study 3: esaxerenone did not markedly alter digoxin PK. GLSM ratios for Cmax, trough plasma concentration, and AUC during a dosing interval for digoxin versus esaxerenone + digoxin were 1.130, 1.088, and 1.072, respectively. Conclusions No drug–drug interactions are expected during combination therapy with esaxerenone and either amlodipine or digoxin, based on a lack of any clinically relevant PK changes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Post-void residual urine volume (PVR) and bladder voiding efficiency (BVE) are widely used as clinical parameters to evaluate patients with voiding dysfunction. The present study was conducted to assess the variability of PVR and BVE determinations in patients with underactive bladder (UAB). In addition, we focused on the bladder volume prior to voiding (BVvoid ) that may influence PVR and BVE, and investigated a correlation between PVR and BVvoid , and between BVE and BVvoid . METHODS Ten patients with a symptom complex of UAB, who had PVR of 50 mL or greater, were admitted to hospital during a 24-hour period for the measurement of voided volume (VV) and PVR. PVR was measured by transabdominal ultrasonography. BVE was expressed by a fraction (%) of bladder volume evacuated ([VV/BVvoid ] × 100). RESULTS Ten patients, five men (mean age of 65.0 years) and five women (mean age of 70.2 years), participated in this study. Regardless of gender, there was a large variation in repeated measurements of PVR in an individual patient. PVR increased with an increase in BVvoid , and there was a significant linear relationship between PVR and BVvoid . BVE was approximately constant after every voiding in each patient, and there was no significant linear relationship between BVE and BVvoid . CONCLUSIONS Measurement of PVR was unreliable because of wide variation in the same individual. The variation of BVE was much smaller than PVR. BVE would be a reliable parameter with good reproducibility for the assessment of emptying function.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the effects of the strong cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A inhibitor itraconazole and the strong CYP3A inducer rifampicin on the pharmacokinetics of single-dose esaxerenone, a nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor blocker, in healthy Japanese subjects. METHODS Two open-label, single-sequence, crossover studies were conducted in healthy Japanese males aged 20-45 years. In Study 1 (n = 20), subjects received a single oral 2.5 mg dose of esaxerenone (Days 1, 13), with itraconazole 200 mg twice daily (Day 8) and once daily (Days 9-16). In Study 2 (n = 12), subjects received a single oral 5 mg dose of esaxerenone (Days 1, 13), with rifampicin 600 mg once daily (Days 8-16). The plasma concentration of esaxerenone and esaxerenone metabolites were measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using noncompartmental analysis, and safety was assessed. RESULTS Esaxerenone exposure increased when coadministered with itraconazole. Geometric least-square mean ratios (90% confidence interval) of peak plasma esaxerenone concentration (Cmax ), area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) from zero until the last measurable concentration (AUClast ) and AUC from zero until infinity (AUCinf ) were 1.13 (1.05, 1.20) ng mL-1 , 1.47 (1.40, 1.54) ng h mL-1 and 1.53 (1.45, 1.62) ng h mL-1 , respectively. Esaxerenone exposure decreased when coadministered with rifampicin. Geometric least-squares mean ratios (90% confidence interval) of esaxerenone Cmax , AUClast and AUCinf were 0.659 (0.599, 0.724), 0.315 (0.300, 0.332) and 0.312 (0.297, 0.328), respectively. CONCLUSION Itraconazole increased esaxerenone AUCinf by 53.1%, and rifampicin decreased esaxerenone AUCinf by 68.8%. These results suggest that caution is recommended when coadministering esaxerenone with strong inhibitors and inducers of CYP3A.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the kinetic parameters that determine the uptake rate of radioiodide in the thyroid over 24 h after administration and to estimate thyroid volumes/masses of present-day Japanese. Methods: We determined the thyroid uptake rate of I in healthy male Japanese after oral administration (4.5-8.0 MBq) without iodine restriction. Masses of thyroid glands were collected in 2012-2016 during autopsies of 7,651 male and 3,331 female subjects. Volumes of thyroid glands were estimated by ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging in 52 male subjects. Results: The thyroid uptake rate of I for 24 h was 16.1 ± 5.4%. Kinetic model analysis was conducted to obtain the clearances (L h) for thyroid uptake and urinary excretion of I (0.499 ± 0.258 and 2.10 ± 0.39 L h, respectively). The masses of thyroid glands were on average 19.8 g (95% confidence interval of 18.3-19.5 g) and 15.5 g (95% confidence interval of 14.7-16.2 g) in male and female subjects aged 19-52 y, respectively. Volumes of thyroid glands estimated by ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging were 17.5 ± 5.2 and 14.2 ± 5.3 mL, respectively. In healthy Japanese, there has been no significant change for at least 50 y in the thyroid uptake of radioiodide over 24 h or in its kinetic parameters. These Japanese-specific kinetic parameters will allow quantitative estimation of the radiation exposure from the Fukushima accident and its variance during the individual's evacuation from or stay in Fukushima.

Abstract
Levocetirizine is classified as a second‐generation antihistamine. Levocetirizine is available for the treatment of allergic disorders such as allergic rhinitis and chronic idiopathic urticaria. This was a single‐center, single‐dose, open‐label, randomized, 2‐way crossover study in healthy Japanese male subjects consisting of 2 parts. Part 1 compared the bioavailability of levocetirizine oral disintegrating tablet (ODT) and levocetirizine immediate‐release tablet (IRT) taken with water in the fasted state in 24 subjects; all subjects completed this part of the trial. In part 2, the bioavailability of levocetirizine ODT without water was compared with that of levocetirizine IRT with water in the fasted state in 48 subjects; 47 subjects completed this part of the trial. Bioequivalence was demonstrated between levocetirizine IRT 5 mg and ODT 5 mg. The safety profiles were generally similar between levocetirizine ODT and levocetirizine IRT, with no serious adverse events, deaths, or adverse events leading to withdrawal reported during the study.

Abstract
Endogenous substrates are emerging biomarkers for drug transporters, which serve as surrogate probes in drug-drug interaction (DDI) studies. In this study, the results of metabolome analysis using wild-type and Oct1/2 double knockout mice suggested that N 1-methyladenosine (m1A) was a novel organic cation transporter (OCT) 2 substrate. An in vitro transport study revealed that m1A is a substrate of mouse Oct1, Oct2, Mate1, human OCT1, OCT2, and multidrug and toxin exclusion protein (MATE) 2-K, but not human MATE1. Urinary excretion accounted for 77% of the systemic elimination of m1A in mice. The renal clearance (46.9 ± 4.9 ml/min per kilogram) of exogenously given m1A was decreased to near the glomerular filtration rates by Oct1/2 double knockout or Mate1 inhibition by pyrimethamine (16.6 ± 2.6 and 24.3 ± 0.6 ml/min per kilogram, respectively), accompanied by significantly higher plasma concentrations. In vivo inhibition of OCT2/MATE2-K by a single dose of 7-[(3R)-3-(1-aminocyclopropyl)pyrrolidin-1-yl]-1-[(1R,2S)-2-fluorocyclopropyl]-8-methoxy-4-oxoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid in cynomolgus monkeys resulted in the elevation of the area under the curve of m1A (1.72-fold) as well as metformin (2.18-fold). The plasma m1A concentration profile showed low diurnal and interindividual variation in healthy volunteers. The renal clearance of m1A in younger (21-45 year old) and older (65-79 year old) volunteers (244 ± 58 and 169 ± 22 ml/min per kilogram, respectively) was about 2-fold higher than the creatinine clearance. The renal clearances of m1A and creatinine were 31% and 17% smaller in older than in younger volunteers. Thus, m1A could be a surrogate probe for the evaluation of DDIs involving OCT2/MATE2-K. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Endogenous substrates can serve as surrogate probes for clinical drug-drug interaction studies involving drug transporters or enzymes. In this study, m1A was found to be a novel substrate of renal cationic drug transporters OCT2 and MATE2-K. N 1-methyladenosine was revealed to have some advantages compared to other OCT2/MATE substrates (creatinine and N 1-methylnicotinamide). The genetic or chemical impairment of OCT2 or MATE2-K caused a significant increase in the plasma m1A concentration in mice and cynomolgus monkeys due to the high contribution of tubular secretion to the net elimination of m1A. The plasma m1A concentration profile showed low diurnal and interindividual variation in healthy volunteers. Thus, m1A could be a better biomarker of variations in OCT2/MATE2-K activity caused by inhibitory drugs.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Pancreatic β-cell dysfunction contributes to type 2 diabetes mellitus progression. Drugs that improve insulin secretion might be a valuable treatment approach. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of the G protein-coupled receptor 119 agonist DS-8500a on insulin secretory capacity in Japanese type 2 diabetes mellitus patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This single-center, 4-week, randomized, double-blind, cross-over study enrolled 21 Japanese drug-naïve type 2 diabetes mellitus patients aged ≥20 years with glycated hemoglobin ≥7.0 and <9.0% (NCT02669732, JapicCTI 163126). Patients received 75 mg of DS-8500a or a placebo orally daily for 4 weeks in a random order. A combined euglycemic-hyperinsulinemic and hyperglycemic clamp test was carried out to assess insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity before and after each 4-week treatment period. Primary end-points were first-phase insulin secretion (insulin area under the curve [AUC]180-190 min and C-peptide AUC180-190 min during the clamp test) and second-phase insulin secretion (insulin AUC190-300 min and C-peptide AUC190-300 min ). Insulin sensitivity (M and M/I values), disposition index and changes in lipid profile were also assessed. RESULTS DS-8500a significantly increased first- and second-phase insulin AUC (P = 0.0011, P = 0.0112) and C-peptide AUC (P = 0.0012, P < 0.0001) compared with the placebo. At day 28, M and M/I values were comparable with those of the placebo, whereas the disposition index for insulin and C-peptide was significantly increased (P = 0.0108, P = 0.0002). Total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations were significantly reduced, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations were significantly increased compared with the placebo. No significant treatment-emergent adverse events occurred. CONCLUSION DS-8500a enhanced insulin secretory capacity, but not insulin sensitivity.

Abstract
A fixed-dose combination of tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) and emtricitabine (FTC) is available in 2 tablet strengths in Japan (FTC/TAF 200/10 mg and FTC/TAF 200/25 mg). These are used once daily in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection. The primary objective of this study was to investigate if there is any clinically relevant pharmacokinetic difference for TAF, tenofovir (TFV), and FTC between Japanese and non-Japanese with historical data. Three treatment groups were set in the study; FTC/TAF 200/10 mg in combination with darunavir (DRV) 800 mg + ritonavir (RTV) 100 mg (treatment A) or DRV/cobicistat (COBI) 800/150 mg (treatment B) and FTC/TAF 200/25 mg alone (treatment C). Especially for treatment C, it was designated for another purpose to evaluate the pharmacokinetic boosting effects of RTV and COBI on TAF bioavailability. As a result, the mean exposure of TAF among treatment groups was 125 to 154 ng/mL for Cmax and 119 to 179 ng·h/mL for AUCinf , which were comparable with the historical data in non-Japanese. The exposures of TFV and FTC were also consistent with the historical data. Therefore, no clinically relevant pharmacokinetic differences for TAF, TFV, and FTC were observed between Japanese and non-Japanese. Boosting effects of RTV and COBI on TAF bioavailability were slightly lower than we expected, less than a 2.5-fold increase, but it was within the range of exposures associated with efficacy and safety in phase 3 studies. Therefore, it was not considered clinically relevant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Urological symptoms such as gross hematuria, lower and upper urinary tract symptoms, and bladder pain are common in and distressing for patients with advanced cancer. Although palliation of urological symptoms is important to improve the quality of life of cancer patients and their families and caregivers, clinical guidelines for managing urological symptoms in patients with cancer have not been published. METHODS Following the formal guideline development process, the Japanese Society for Palliative Medicine (JSPM) developed comprehensive clinical guidelines for the management of urological symptoms in patients with cancer. RESULTS This article summarizes the recommendations and their rationales and provides a short summary of the development process of the JSPM urological symptom management guidelines. We established five recommendations, all of which were based on the best available evidence and expert consensus. CONCLUSION JSPM released the first edition of the "Clinical Guidelines for Urological Symptoms in Cancer Patients." Future clinical research and continuous guideline updates are required to improve the quality of managing urological symptoms in patients with cancer.

Abstract
In young children, infrequent antigen exposure, which is partly characterized by fewer vaccinations, may be a factor impairing the immunogenicity of inactivated influenza vaccine.We assessed the effects of prior vaccinations on age-specific immune responses in Japanese children aged 6 months to 3 years, using data from a cohort study with 266 children who had received 2 doses (0.25 mL/dose for < 3 years old, 0.5 mL/dose for 3 years old) in the 2006/2007 season. Serological measures, primarily seroprotection rates, between previously vaccinated and vaccine-naïve children were compared within 1-year age strata. The seroprotection rate was defined in 2 ways as the proportion of subjects who achieved an antibody titer of 1:40 or 1:160. Multivariate logistic regression was also performed to estimate the independent effect of prior vaccination on seroprotection rate.After the first dose, seroprotection rates with the threshold of 1:40 in vaccine-naïve 1-year-olds remained low (28% for AH1, 26% for AH3, 2% for B), similar to those of 0-year-olds. In contrast, seroprotection rates in previously vaccinated 1-year-olds (77% for AH1, 86% for AH3, 18% for B) were significantly higher than those in vaccine-naïve 1-year-olds. These seroprotection rates for AH1 and AH3 were comparable with those in previously vaccinated 2- and 3-year-olds. Although seroprotection rates for B remained low in every age stratum even after the second dose, seroprotection rate in previously vaccinated 1-year-olds (50%) was similar to that in 3-year-olds. After adjustment for age, baseline antibody titer and experience of acute febrile respiratory illness in the preceding season, odds ratios showed a significant independent positive effect of prior vaccination on seroprotection rate for every strain. After the seroprotection threshold was changed from 1:40 to 1:160, the results of the effects of prior vaccinations on immunogenicity were similar or became more evident, which demonstrate the robustness of our findings.Our study found that prior vaccinations improved poor immunogenicity among young children, especially in 1-year-olds.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 analogue for once-weekly subcutaneous treatment of type 2 diabetes. This trial compared the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of semaglutide in Japanese and Caucasian subjects. METHODS In this single-center, double-blind, parallel-group, 13-week trial, 44 healthy male subjects (22 Japanese, 22 Caucasian) were randomized within each race to semaglutide 0.5 mg (n = 8), 1.0 mg (n = 8), placebo 0.5 mg (n = 3) or 1.0 mg (n = 3). The primary endpoint was semaglutide exposure at steady state [area under the curve (AUC0-168h)]. RESULTS Steady-state exposure of semaglutide was similar for both populations: AUC0-168h estimated race ratio (ERR), Japanese/Caucasian: 0.5 mg, 1.06; 1.0 mg, 0.99; maximum concentration (Cmax) ERR: 0.5 mg, 1.06; 1.0 mg, 1.02. Exposure after the first dose (0.25 mg) was slightly higher in Japanese versus Caucasian subjects (AUC0-168h ERR 1.11; Cmax ERR 1.14). Dose-dependent increases in AUC0-168h and Cmax occurred in both populations. Accumulation was as expected, based on the half-life (t1/2, ~ 1 week) and dosing interval of semaglutide. Significant body weight reductions were observed with semaglutide 0.5 mg and 1.0 mg in Japanese (both p ≤ 0.05) and Caucasian (both p ≤ 0.05) subjects versus placebo. No new safety issues were identified. CONCLUSIONS The pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and safety profiles of semaglutide were similar in Japanese and Caucasian subjects, suggesting that no dose adjustment is required for the clinical use of semaglutide in Japanese subjects.

Abstract
In Japan, the routine immunization program with oral polio vaccine (OPV) has been suspended since September 2012, when a program with 4 doses of inactivated monovalent polio vaccine (IPV) or quadrivalent vaccine against diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus with IPV (DTaP-IPV) was introduced. The aim of this study was to examine the interchangeability among these 3 types of polio vaccines.We conducted a prospective cohort study at 5 pediatric clinics in Japan. A total of 153 infants were assigned to 1 of the 4 groups by considering the vaccination history of OPV and trivalent vaccine against DTaP. Eleven infants with a history of OPV received 3 doses of DTaP-IPV; 49 infants with a history of OPV and DTaP received 3 doses of IPV; 50 polio vaccine-naïve infants received 2 doses of IPV followed by 2 doses of DTaP-IPV; and 43 polio vaccine-naive infants received 2 doses of DTaP-IPV followed by IPV. The immunogenicity after polio vaccination was evaluated among these 4 groups.After 2 doses of polio vaccination, more than 80% of the infants exhibited a neutralization antibody titer ≥1:8 for all Sabin strains and wild strains in all groups. After the third dose, the seroprotection proportion (i.e., a neutralization antibody titer ≥1:8) reached about 100%. After the fourth dose, a neutralization antibody titer exceeded the required protective levels (i.e., a neutralization antibody titer ≥1:8) considerably in all groups.Four doses of polio vaccines induced a sufficient level of immunity in Japanese infants, irrespective of vaccine combinations or order.

Abstract
Recent studies suggest that trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is associated with the development of chronic kidney disease and heart failure. In this study, we investigated the importance of organic cation transporters (OCTs) in the clearance and tissue distribution of TMAO. The low-affinity and high-capacity transport of TMAO by mouse and human OCT1 and OCT2 was observed. Uptake and efflux of TMAO by the mouse hepatocytes as well as TMAO uptake into mouse kidney slices were significantly decreased by the addition of tetraethylammonium or Oct1/2 double knockout (dKO). Plasma concentrations of endogenous TMAO and TMAO-d9 given by intravenous infusion was 2-fold higher in Oct1/2 dKO than in wild-type mice due to significant decrease in its renal clearance. These results indicate that OCTs have a crucial role in the kinetics of TMAO in mice. In human, however, the OCT2-mediated tubular secretion in the urinary excretion of TMAO was insignificant because the renal clearance of TMAO was similar to that of creatinine in both young and elderly subjects, suggesting the species difference in the urinary excretion mechanisms of TMAO between mouse and human.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors reduce the risk of hypoglycaemia, possibly through augmentation of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) action, but not that of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) on glucagon secretion. To examine this model in Japanese individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D), the effects of the DPP-4 inhibitor linagliptin on glucagon and other counter-regulatory hormone responses to hypoglycaemia were evaluated and compared with those of the GLP-1 receptor agonist liraglutide in a multi-centre, randomized, open-label, 2-arm parallel comparative, exploratory trial. Three-step hypoglycaemic clamp glucose tests preceded by meal tolerance tests were performed before and after 2-week treatment with the drugs. Glucagon levels were increased during the hypoglycaemic clamp test at 2.5 mmol/L. This increase was similar in the linagliptin and liraglutide groups, both before and after the 2-week treatment. Changes in other counter-regulatory hormones (ie, growth hormone, cortisol, epinephrine and norepinephrine) were also similar between the groups, but were suppressed substantially after 2-week treatment compared to baseline. In conclusion, we confirmed that the glucagon response to hypoglycaemia was not affected by linagliptin or liraglutide treatment in Japanese individuals with T2D.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was divided into three phases, on the occasion of the introduction of everolimus (EVR) in our hospital. METHODS In the first phase, a study group of six maintenance patients (three living related donors, three deceased donors) who had a history of malignant disease with less than 500 mg/day of proteinuria were enrolled; a high serum creatinine and upper limit of duration after kidney transplant operation was not considered. EVR was discontinued in four of the six patients because of side effects or worsening renal function. The second phase comprised a study group of 12 maintenance patients (12 living related donors) who were more than 5 years after kidney transplant operation with serum creatinine <3 ng/mL and proteinuria <500 mg/day. In two patients, EVR was discontinued because of a skin rash or general fatigue, but EVR was continued in 10 cases. Calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) dosage was reduced and renal function improved, and mean estimated glomerular filtration rate recovered from 42.3 mL/min to 44.8 mL/min, with no rejections occurring. In the third phase, a study group of eight de novo transplant patients who were 2 to 3 weeks after transplant operation were examined. In one case, EVR was discontinued because of proteinuria but was restarted with a stepwise increasing method after 4 months and was continued without any side effects. RESULTS Our study indicates that EVR was a useful drug for the maintenance of kidney transplant recipients for the optimal patients. CONCLUSIONS In de novo cases, EVR plus a high dose of mizoribine and low CNI protocol was a useful regimen without serious adverse effects.

Abstract
Background Methotrexate (MTX) is currently the anchor drug widely used worldwide in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the therapeutic response to MTX has been shown to vary widely among individuals, genders and ethnic groups. The reason for this has been not clarified but it is considered to be partially due to several mechanisms in the cellular pathway of MTX including single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The purpose of this study was to investigate the allelic frequencies in different ethnic and/or population groups in the 10 polymorphisms of enzyme proteins and transporters related to the MTX response and pharmacokinetics including MTHFR, TYMS, RFC1, FPGS, GGH, ABCB1, ABCC2 and ABCG2 in unrelated healthy Japanese adults and patients with RA. Methods Ten polymorphisms, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) 1298, thymidylate synthase (TYMS) 3'-UTR, reduced folate carrier 1 (RFC1) 80 and−43, folypolyglutamyl synthase (FPGS) 1994, γ-glutamyl hydrolase (GGH) 452 and−401, the ABC transporters (ABCB1 3435, ABCC2 IVS23 + 56, ABCG2 914) of enzyme proteins and transporters related to MTX response and pharmacokinetics in 299 unrelated healthy Japanese adults and 159 Japanese patients with RA were investigated to clarify their contributions to individual variations in response and safety to MTX and establish personalized MTX therapy. SNPs were evaluated using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results Comparison of allelic frequencies in our study with other ethnic/population groups of healthy adults and RA patients showed significant differences in 10 polymorphisms among healthy adults and 7 among RA patients. Allelic frequencies of MTHFR 1298 C, FPGS 1994A and ABCB1 3435 T were lower in Japanese than in Caucasian populations and those of ABCC2 IVS23 + 56 C and ABCG2 914A were higher in Japanese than in Caucasian/European populations in both healthy adults and RA patients. Allelic frequencies of MTHFR 1298 C, GGH−401 T, ABCB1 3435 T, and ABCG2 914A were higher in healthy Japanese adults than in an African population, and those of RFC1 80A, RFC1−43C and ABCC2 IVS23 + 56 C in healthy Japanese adults were lower than in Africans. However, no significant differences were seen in the distribution of allelic frequencies between healthy Japanese adults and RA patients. Conclusion The variations in allelic frequencies in different ethnic and/or population groups in healthy adults and RA patients may contribute to individual variations in MTX response and toxicity.

Abstract
Clopidogrel is reported to be associated with cerivastatin-induced rhabdomyolysis, and clopidogrel and its metabolites are capable of inhibiting CYP2C8 and OATP 1B1 in vitro. The objective of the present study was to identify the mechanism of clopidogrel-mediated drug-drug interactions (DDIs) on the pharmacokinetics of OATP1B1 and/or CYP2C8 substrates in vivo. A clinical cassette small-dose study using OATPs, CYP2C8, and OATP1B1/CYP2C8 probe drugs (pitavastatin, pioglitazone, and repaglinide, respectively) with or without the coadministration of either 600 mg rifampicin (an inhibitor for OATPs), 200 mg trimethoprim (an inhibitor for CYP2C8), or 300 mg clopidogrel was performed, and the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) ratios (AUCRs) for probe substrates were predicted using a static model. Clopidogrel increased the AUC of pioglitazone (2.0-fold) and repaglinide (3.1-fold) but did not significantly change the AUC of pitavastatin (1.1-fold). In addition, the AUC of pioglitazone M4, a CYP2C8-mediated metabolite of pioglitazone, was reduced to 70% of the control by coadministration of clopidogrel. The predicted AUCRs using the mechanism-based inhibition of CYP2C8 by clopidogrel acyl-β-glucuronide were similar to the observed AUCRs, and the predicted AUCR (1.1) of repaglinide using only the inhibition of OATP1B1 did not reach the observed AUCR (3.1). In conclusion, a single 300 mg of clopidogrel mainly inhibits CYP2C8-mediated metabolism by clopidogrel acyl-β-glucuronide, but its effect on the pharmacokinetics of OATP1B1 substrates is negligible. Clopidogrel is expected to have an effect not only on CYP2C8 substrates, but also dual CYP2C8/OATP1B1 substrates as seen in the case of repaglinide.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by systemic inflammatory status, joint destruction, disability, and pain. Methotrexate (MTX) has been confirmed to reduce disease activity and delay or stabilize the development of bone erosions. However, major drawbacks are that patients show great interindividual variability in response to MTX and the unpredictable occurrence of side effects. A strategy for personalized MTX treatment to predict its efficacy and toxicity has not yet been determined. To establish personalized MTX therapy in Japanese patients with rheumatoid arthritis, we performed a preliminary study for predicting better methotrexate efficacy including single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for MTX-related transporters/enzymes. METHODS Disease control status (good or poor) was judged by the number of Disease Activity Scores (DAS28) of <2 for 6-12 months. The response index R was calculated by the improved area under the curve (AUC) of the DAS28 score for 0-3 or 0-6 months by dividing the cumulative dose of MTX during 0-3 or 0-6 months, respectively. Genotyping of alleles of RFC1 80G > A, RFC1 -43 T > C, FPGS 1994G > A, GGH 401C > T, MTHFR 1298A > C, and TYMS 3'-UTR (-6/+6) was performed using the real-time PCR system. RESULTS Seven of 21 patients were judged as good responders in terms of disease control, and the remainder as poor responders. For 0-3 months after starting MTX administration, the median cumulative dose and improved DAS28 AUC in the good and poor response groups were 96.0 mg and 25.4 and 118.0 mg and 23.4, respectively. For 0-6 months, the median cumulative dose and improved DAS28 AUC in the good and poor response groups were 192.0 mg and 51.0 and 214.0 mg and 47.6, respectively. Statistically significant differences between the 2 groups in the 0-6-month period were observed in DAS28 AUC improvement and index R. A slight tendency for a correlation between G/G genotypes and A allele genotypes in RFC1 80 genotypes was observed, although it did not reach statistical significance. CONCLUSION This study suggested that aggressive RA treatment with MTX from the early period of administration is necessary to obtain a good response after 6 months, although no SNPs predicting a better treatment response to MTX were identified.

Abstract
To evaluate antibody response induced by trivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (TIV) against circulating influenza A (H3N2) strains in healthy adults during the 2010/11 and 2011/12 seasons, a hemagglutination-inhibition (HI) assay was utilized to calculate geometric mean antibody titer (GMT), seroprotection rate (post vaccination HI titers of ≥1 :40), and seroresponse rate (4-fold increase in antibody level). In the 2010/11 season, GMT increased 1.8- to 2.0-fold following the first dose of TIV against 3 circulating strains and 2.2-fold following the second compared to before vaccination. The seroresponse rate ranged from 22% to 26% following the first dose of TIV and from 31% to 33% following the second (n = 54 ). The seroprotection rate increased from a range of 6% to 13% to a range of 26% to 33% following the first dose of TIV and to a range of 37% to 42% following the second (n = 54 ). In the 2011/12 season, GMT increased 1.4-fold against A/Osaka/110/2011 and 1.8-fold against A/Osaka/5/2012. For A/Osaka/110/2011, the seroresponse rate was 29%, and the seroprotection rate increased from 26% to 55% following vaccination (n = 31 ). For A/Osaka/5/2012, the seroresponse rate was 26%, and the seroprotection rate increased from 68% to 84% following vaccination (n = 31 ). HI assays with reference antisera demonstrated that the strains in the 2011/12 season were antigenically distinct from vaccine strain (A/Victoria/210/2009). In conclusion, the vaccination increased the seroprotection rate against circulating H3N2 strains in the 2010/11 and 2011/12 seasons. Vaccination of TIV might have potential to induce reactive antibodies against antigenically distinct circulating H3N2 viruses.

Abstract
This open-label study was designed to assess immunogenicity and safety of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) when administered to Japanese adults aged ≥50 years not previously vaccinated with 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine and to compare this Japanese study population with similar study populations in the United States (US; 50–64 years age group) and European Union (EU; ≥65 years age group). Functional antibody immune responses were measured by opsonophagocytic activity assays. Immune responses in both Japanese age groups showed significant pre/postvaccination fold rises for each serotype. In the Japanese 50–64 years age group, immune responses for the majority of serotypes were significantly lower than in the ≥65 years Japanese age group and generally lower than in the 50–64 years age group in the US study. Immune responses in the Japanese ≥65 years age group were significantly higher for the majority of serotypes compared with the ≥65 years age group in the EU study. The safety profiles across age groups and studies were generally similar. In conclusion, PCV13 elicited robust immune responses in the Japanese study population. The unanticipated higher immune responses observed in the older age group in the Japanese study are of interest and of potential benefit given the higher incidence of pneumococcal disease in older adults. PCV13 was well tolerated and safe.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of TAK-438 (vonoprazan, a potassium-competitive acid blocker) in healthy male subjects. METHODS: In two phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single rising-dose studies, healthy male subjects (Japan N=84; UK N=63) received a single TAK-438 dose (1–120 mg in Japan and 1–40 mg in the UK). Assessments included safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics (intragastric pH). RESULTS: Plasma concentration–time profiles of TAK-438 at all dose levels showed rapid absorption (median Tmax up to 2 h). Estimated mean elimination half-life was up to 9 h. Exposure was slightly greater than dose proportional. No clear difference in TAK-438 pharmacokinetics was observed between Japanese and non-Japanese subjects. Acid suppression was dose dependent and similar in both studies. The 24-h intragastric pH ≥4 holding time ratio with 40 mg TAK-438 was 92% in Japan and 87% in the UK. TAK-438 was well tolerated, with no adverse events reported in Japanese subjects; 10 of 63 UK subjects experienced 12 treatment-emergent adverse events (non-serious). Increases in serum gastrin and pepsinogen I and II concentrations were observed at doses ≥10 mg, but there were no changes in alanine aminotransferase concentrations. CONCLUSIONS: Single oral doses of TAK-438 20–120 mg caused rapid, profound, and 24-h suppression of gastric acid secretion in healthy male subjects, regardless of geographical region, and TAK-438 was well tolerated at all doses studied, making it a potential alternative to proton pump inhibitors for the treatment of acid-related disorders.

Abstract
AIMS Two single-dose studies were conducted in Japan and Europe to compare the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) profiles of new insulin glargine 300 U/ml (Gla-300) and insulin glargine 100 U/ml (Gla-100) in people with type 1 diabetes mellitus. METHODS In two double-blind, randomized, crossover studies, 18 Japanese participants (aged 20-65 years) and 24 European participants (aged 18-65 years) with glycated haemoglobin levels ≤9.0% (≤75 mmol/mol) received single subcutaneous doses of Gla-300, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.9 U/kg (0.9 U/kg in the European study only), and Gla-100, 0.4 U/kg. A 36-h euglycaemic clamp procedure was performed after each dosing. RESULTS The serum insulin glargine concentration (INS) and glucose infusion rate (GIR) developed more gradually into more constant and prolonged profiles with Gla-300 than with Gla-100. In support of this, the times to 50% of glargine exposure and insulin activity were longer for all Gla-300 doses than for Gla-100 during the 36-h clamp period, indicating a more evenly distributed exposure and metabolic effect beyond 24 h. Exposure to insulin glargine and glucose utilization were lower with the 0.4 and 0.6 U/ml Gla-300 doses in both studies compared with the 0.4 U/ml Gla-100 dose. Glucose-lowering activity was detected for up to 36 h with all doses of Gla-300. CONCLUSIONS Single-dose injections of Gla-300 present more constant and prolonged PK and PD profiles compared with Gla-100, maintaining blood glucose control for up to 36 h in euglycaemic clamp settings in Japanese and European participants with type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
To investigate the potential for a QT/QTc study in Japan, a randomized, single-blind, crossover study was conducted using moxifloxacin in 64 healthy Japanese male volunteers. A 12-lead Holter electrocardiogram was used to test a relatively small population at each of 4 incorporated clinical research units to confirm the assay sensitivity and efficiency. Moxifloxacin (400 mg) significantly prolonged QT intervals, as previously reported, with small variations in this study. In addition, the placebo-adjusted mean QTcF changes from predose baseline showed that the lower bounds of the 1-sided 95% confidence interval exceeded 5 milliseconds at all of the clinical research units. The data also indicated statistically significant concentration-QT relationships in 3 of the 4 research units by separate analysis. These findings and the small amount of variability in this study suggest the feasibility of conducting a high-quality QT/QTc study in Japan.

Abstract
Brivaracetam is a high-affinity synaptic vesicle protein 2A ligand, in phase 3 clinical development for epilepsy. A phase 1, single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single (2.5-100 mg) and multiple (2.5-50 mg twice daily) rising oral dose study (N01209) was conducted to assess the adverse event profile and pharmacokinetics of brivaracetam in healthy Japanese men, and the influence of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 genotype. Plasma and urine were collected serially for analysis of brivaracetam and its three main metabolites: acid, hydroxy and hydroxy acid. Overall, 79/80 randomized participants completed the study. Brivaracetam was generally well tolerated. After single- and multiple-dose administration, brivaracetam was rapidly absorbed, with dose-proportional pharmacokinetics over the dose ranges tested. Steady state was reached after 2 days of repeated dosing. Brivaracetam clearance (averaged across the five single dose levels) was reduced from 0.99 mL/min/kg in homozygous extensive metabolizers (EM; n = 10) to 0.81 mL/min/kg (-18%) in heterozygous EM (n = 17) and 0.70 mL/min/kg (-29%) in poor metabolizers (PM; n = 9). Exposure and urinary excretion of hydroxy metabolite were reduced 10-fold in PM participants, compared with EM participants. Results suggest that brivaracetam is hydroxylated by CYP2C19, but this pathway is minor compared with hydrolysis to the acid metabolite.

Abstract
This study investigated the effects of ingested food types on the pharmacokinetics of elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir as a single-tablet regimen (STR) in Japanese HIV-negative healthy subjects. In this open-label, randomized, three-way crossover study, the pharmacokinetic profiles of elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, and tenofovir were evaluated when administered with a standard breakfast, under fasting conditions, or with a nutritional protein-rich drink. All subjects (N = 11) received a single morning dose of elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (150/150/200/300 mg). Administration under fasting conditions resulted in decreases in the mean AUCinf of elvitegravir and tenofovir by 50% and 28%, respectively, relative to administration with a standard breakfast, whereas the bioavailabilities of elvitegravir and tenofovir were comparable when administered with a standard breakfast or a nutritional protein-rich drink. Under fasting conditions, it appears that the bioavailabilities of elvitegravir and tenofovir were not equivalent to those when they were administered with either type of food, although they were bioequivalent to each other under fed conditions. Cobicistat and emtricitabine were bioequivalent under all conditions. These findings suggest that elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate should be administered with food, and that the bioavailability of elvitegravir and tenofovir is not affected by the type of meal ingested.

Abstract
FSK0808 is a recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor developed by Fuji Pharma Co., Ltd and Mochida Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. as a biosimilar product of Gran®. We verified the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic equivalence of FSK0808 and commercially available Gran® by a randomized crossover study of single intravenous dose (200 µg/m(2)) and single subcutaneous dose (400 µg/m(2)) in healthy Japanese adult male subjects. According to the bioequivalence guidelines, the area under the blood concentration - time curve by 48 hours after administration (AUC0-48) in a single intravenous drip (IVD) study, and AUC0-48 and maximum blood concentration (Cmax) in a single subcutaneous (SC) dose study were used as primary endpoints, and the pharmacodynamic parameters including absolute neutrophil count (ANC) or number of CD34 positive cells (CD34(+) cells) as secondary endpoints. The safety was evaluated based on the characteristics and incidence of adverse reactions. As a result, the 90% confidence interval (CI) of the difference in mean value for AUC0-48 among drugs ranged from log(0.8) to log(1.25), in the IVD study, and those for Cmax and AUC0-48 were within the range of log(0.8)-log(1.25) in the SC study. Those for secondary endpoints were all within the range of log(0.8)-log(1.25). Thus, the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of both drugs were considered equivalent for all routes of administration, and the profiles of adverse reactions were also very similar.

Abstract
We investigated the mechanisms of ritonavir-mediated enhancement effect on the pharmacokinetics of saquinavir using in vivo probes for CYP3A4 (midazolam), p-glycoprotein (fexofenadine), and OATP1B1 (pravastatin) following oral micro/small dosing. A cocktail of the drugs (2 mg of saquinavir, 100 µg of each probe) was administered to eight healthy volunteers (phase 1), and then coadministered with 20 mg (phase 2) and 100 mg (phase 3) of ritonavir. Plasma concentrations of the drugs were measured by validated LC-MS/MS methods. The mean plasma AUC0-24 (pg hour/mL) of saquinavir at phases 1, 2, and 3 was 101, 2 540, and 23 900 (P < .01), respectively. The relative area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC)0-24 ratios of midazolam and fexofenadine at phases 1, 2, and 3 were 1:5.9:14.7 (P < .01), and 1:1.4:2.2 (P < .01-.05), respectively. In contrast, there was no difference in the pharmacokinetics of pravastatin. Inhibition of intestinal and hepatic CYP3A-mediated metabolism, and intestinal p-glycoprotein-mediated efflux of saquinavir, but not OATP1B1, is involved in the enhancement mechanism. Micro/small dosing is useful for examining the mechanism of drug interactions without safety concern.
