Conducting PK studies in pregnant women is challenging. Therefore, we asked if a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model could be used to predict the disposition of drugs cleared by multiple CYP enzymes.We expanded and verified our previously published pregnancy PBPK incorporating hepatic CYP2B6 induction (based on vitro data), CYP2C9 phenytoin PK) CYP2C19 suppression proguanil PK), into model. This accounted for gestational age-dependent changes maternal physiology CYP3A, CYP1A2...
Although organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)–mediated hepatic uptake is generally conserved between rodents and humans at a gross pharmacokinetic level, the presence of three major OATPs with broad overlap in substrate inhibitor affinity, absence rodent-human orthologs preclude clinical translation single-gene knockout/knockin findings. At present, changes pharmacokinetics tissue distribution pravastatin, atorvastatin, simvastatin, carboxydichlorofluorescein were studied...
Conducting pharmacokinetic (PK) studies in pregnant women is challenging. Therefore, we asked if a physiologically based (PBPK) model could be used to evaluate different dosing regimens for women. We refined and verified our previously published pregnancy PBPK by incorporating cytochrome P450 CYP1A2 suppression (based on caffeine PK) CYP2D6 induction metoprolol into the model. This accounts gestational age–dependent changes maternal physiology hepatic CYP3A activity. For verification,...
High-dose ketoconazole (400 mg q.d. for ≥5 days) has been the gold-standard strong cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) inhibitor in drug development drug–drug interaction (DDI) studies. In 2013, US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) European Medicines Agency (EMA) advised against using this regimen following review of clinical safety reports. We systematically evaluated 19 CYP3A inhibitors from regulatory guidances a literature database to identify itraconazole (200 b.i.d. on day 1, days 2–6)...
In this study, we present efavirenz physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model development as an example of our best practice approach that uses a stepwise to verify the different components model. First, PBPK for incorporating in vitro and clinical (PK) data was developed predict exposure following multiple dosing (600 mg q.d.). Alfentanil i.v. p.o. drug‐drug interaction (DDI) studies were utilized evaluate refine CYP3A4 induction component liver gut. Next, independent DDI with...
Abstract Physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling is being increasingly used in drug development to avoid unnecessary clinical drug–drug interaction (DDI) studies and inform labels. Thus, regulatory agencies are recommending, or indeed requesting, more rigorous demonstration of the prediction accuracy PBPK platforms area their intended use. We describe a framework for qualification Simcyp Simulator with respect competitive mechanism‐based inhibition (MBI) CYP1A2, CYP2D6, CYP2C8,...
We use a mechanistic lung model to demonstrate that accumulation of chloroquine (CQ), hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), and azithromycin (AZ) in the lungs is sensitive changes pH, parameter can be affected patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). A reduction pH from 6.7 6 lungs, as observed respiratory disease, led 20-fold, 4.0-fold, 2.7-fold increases exposure CQ, HCQ, AZ, respectively. Simulations indicated relatively high concentrations CQ HCQ tissue were sustained long after...
Ivosidenib is a potent, targeted, orally active, small-molecule inhibitor of mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) that has been approved in the United States for treatment adults with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are greater than or equal to 75 years age ineligible intensive chemotherapy, and those relapsed refractory AML, susceptible IDH1 mutation. an inducer CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP3A4 P-glycoprotein (P-gp), organic anion transporting polypeptide-1B1/1B3...
At clinically relevant ixazomib concentrations, in vitro studies demonstrated that no specific cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme predominantly contributes to metabolism. However, at higher than clinical was metabolized by multiple CYP isoforms, with the estimated relative contribution being highest for CYP3A 42%. This multiarm phase 1 study (Clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT01454076) investigated effect of strong inhibitors ketoconazole and clarithromycin inducer rifampin on pharmacokinetics...
Betamethasone and dexamethasone are the most widely studied antenatal corticosteroids ( ACS ) administered to pregnant women, just prior birth of a preterm neonate, accelerate fetal lung maturation. Although betamethasone, predominantly used in developed countries, has been shown be an effective safe intervention for reducing neonatal mortality, choice optimal dosing low middle income countries LMIC s) remains unclear. This is primarily because exposure–response relationships have not...

In vitro , can inhibit induce cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 P-gp. Methods: A physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model using Simcyp Population Based Simulator was developed for to evaluate its perpetrator effect on sensitive substrates of CYP3A4 second etoposide...
Through PET imaging, our laboratory has studied the dynamic biodistribution of <sup>11</sup>C-verapamil, a P-gp substrate, in nonhuman primate <i>Macaca nemestrina</i>. To gain detailed insight into kinetics verapamil transport across blood–brain barrier (BBB) and blood–placental (BPB), we analyzed these data by compartmental modeling. <b>Methods:</b> Thirteen pregnant macaques (gestational age, 71–159 d; term, ∼172 d) underwent imaging with <sup>11</sup>C-verapamil before during infusion...
The glycogen synthase kinase-3 inhibitor LY2090314 specifically impaired CYP2B6 activity during in vitro evaluation of cytochrome P450 (P450) enzyme induction human hepatocytes. catalytic was significantly decreased following 3-day incubation with 0.1–10 <i>μ</i>M LY2090314, on average by 64.3% ± 5.0% at 10 <i>μ</i>M. These levels exposure were not cytotoxic to hepatocytes and did reduce CYP1A2 CYP3A activities. a time-dependent inhibitor, otherwise inhibit concentrations ≤10 <i>μ</i>M,...
