CYP2C19 Polymorphism (cyp2c19 + polymorphism)
Selected AbstractsCYP2C19 Polymorphism and Proton Pump InhibitorsBASIC AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY & TOXICOLOGY, Issue 1 2004Ulrich Klotz In different populations three phenotypes have been identified: extensive metabolizers, poor metabolizers and individuals carrying one wild type and one mutant allele (het extensive metabolizers). Systemic exposure to the proton pump inhibitors as expressed by the AUC (area under the plasma level time profiles) is 5,12-times higher in poor metabolizers than in extensive metabolizers. As the pharmacodynamic response (elevation of intragastric pH) to the proton pump inhibitors is related directly to their AUC, a much higher pH can be monitored over 24 hr in poor metabolizers than in extensive metabolizers. Furthermore, clinical efficacy of all proton pump inhibitors depend on maintaining intragastric pH above certain threshold levels and significantly higher eradication rates of Helicobacter pylori have been observed in patients of the poor metabolizers and het extensive metabolizers phenotype if compared to extensive metabolizers. Likewise, limited data suggest that proton pump inhibitors-induced healing rates in gastro-oesophageal reflux disease are apparently higher in poor metabolizers/het extensive metabolizers than in extensive metabolizers of CYP2C19. Therefore initial genotyping for this enzyme and higher dosage in extensive metabolizers is likely to improve the clinical efficacy of proton pump inhibitors. [source] Effects of genetic polymorphism of cytochrome P450 enzymes on the pharmacokinetics of benzodiazepinesJOURNAL OF CLINICAL PHARMACY & THERAPEUTICS, Issue 4 2007T. Fukasawa MD PhD Summary Pharmacogenetic studies have shown that several cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes exhibit genetic polymorphisms. Several benzodiazepines (BZPs) are metabolized predominantly or partly by polymorphic CYP2C19 and CYP3A4/5. The pharmacokinetics of diazepam, etizolam, quazepam and desmethylclobazam have been shown to be affected by CYP2C19 polymorphism. The CYP3A5 polymorphism has been reported to affect the pharmacokinetics of alprazolam, but its effect on midazolam kinetics has been inconclusive. For etizolam and desmethylclobazam, some data suggest that CYP2C19 deficiency leads to side-effects or toxicity. For the remaining BZPs the clinical significance of the observed pharmacokinetic changes remains unclear. Further studies on the effects of genetic polymorphisms of CYP enzymes on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of BZPs are necessary to guide treatment individualization and optimization. [source] Effect of the CYP2C19 polymorphism on the eradication rate of Helicobacter pylori infection by 7-day triple therapy with regular proton pump inhibitor dosageJOURNAL OF GASTROENTEROLOGY AND HEPATOLOGY, Issue 8pt1 2008Jung Mook Kang Abstract Background and Aim:, Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are mainly metabolized by cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) in the liver. We investigated whether the CYP2C19 genotype plays a role in the eradication rate of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in patients receiving pantoprazole- or esomeprazole-based triple therapy. Methods:, A total of 327 patients infected with H. pylori were treated with either pantoprazole or esomeprazole, plus amoxicillin and clarithromycin for 7 days. The presence of the CYP2C19 genotype was determined by pyrosequencing. Results:, The overall H. pylori eradication rate was 85%; 82.6% for the PAC regimen, and 88.3% for the EAC regimen; the differences were not statistically significant. The overall eradication rate in the poor metabolizer groups (PM) was significantly higher than in the extensive metabolizer groups (EM) (97.4% vs 83.3%; P = 0.016). The eradication rates in the EM and PM groups were 80.8% and 95.7% for the PAC regimen and 86.8% and 100% for the EAC regimen, respectively. Conclusion:, The results of this study suggest that the CYP2C19 genotype status may play a role in the H. pylori eradication rate in patients receiving pantoprazole or esomeprazole-based triple therapy. [source] A comparison of the acid-inhibitory effects of esomeprazole and pantoprazole in relation to pharmacokinetics and CYP2C19 polymorphismALIMENTARY PHARMACOLOGY & THERAPEUTICS, Issue 1 2010N. G. HUNFELD Summary Background, Esomeprazole and pantoprazole are metabolized in the liver and the polymorphic CYP2C19 enzyme is involved in that process. This genetic polymorphism determines fast (70% of Caucasians), intermediate (25,30% of Caucasians) and slow (2,5% of Caucasians) metabolism of PPIs. Aim, To compare the acid-inhibitory effects of esomeprazole 40 mg and pantoprazole 40 mg at 4, 24 and 120 h after oral administration in relation to CYP2C19 genotype and pharmacokinetics. Methods, CYP2C19*2, *3, *4, *5 and *17 genotypes were determined in healthy Helicobacter pylori- negative Caucasian subjects. 7 wt/wt, 7 wt/*2, 2 wt/*17, 2 *2/*17 and 1 *2/*2 were included in a randomized investigator-blinded cross-over study with esomeprazole 40 mg and pantoprazole 40 mg. Intragastric 24-h pH-monitoring was performed on days 0, 1 and 5 of oral dosing. Results, A total of 19 subjects (mean age 24 years, 7 male) completed the study. At day 1 and 5, acid-inhibition with esomeprazole was significantly greater and faster than with pantoprazole. Differences in acid-inhibition and pharmacokinetics between wt/wt and wt/*2 genotype were significant for pantoprazole at day 1 and 5. Conclusions, Esomeprazole provides acid-inhibition faster than and superior to pantoprazole after single and repeated administration. The acid-inhibitory effect and the kinetics of pantoprazole are influenced by CYP2C19 genotype. [source] Influence of CYP2C19 polymorphism on the pharmacokinetics of nelfinavir and its active metaboliteBRITISH JOURNAL OF CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, Issue 5 2009Bharat D. Damle WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS SUBJECT , The true influence of CYP2C19*2 mutation on the pharmacokinetics of nelfinavir and its active metabolite, M8, is not clear. , Often, published studies have combined *2 hetero- and homozygous poor metabolizers (PMs) and/or have very limited data from *2 homozygotes, which contributes to the lack of clarity. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS , The pharmacokinetics of nelfinavir was delineated using pharmacogenomic data from 66 healthy subjects. , The exposure of nelfinavir was elevated, whereas that of M8 was reduced, in heterozygous and homozygous PMs in an incremental manner consistent with the loss of functional alleles. , However, the exposure of active moiety was only modestly elevated in hetero- and homozygous PMs. AIMS This study reports the pharmacokinetics of nelfinavir, its active metabolite, M8, and active moiety (nelfinavir + M8) in volunteers genotyped for CYP2C19 as extensive metabolizer (*1*1; n = 38), heterozygous poor metabolizer (PM) (*1*2; n = 22) and homozygous PM (*2*2; n = 6). METHODS Subjects received nelfinavir at normal dose (3.5 days of 1250 mg q12h) or high dose (1250 mg q12h for 3 days and single dose of 3125 mg on day 4). Steady-state plasma samples were analysed by high-performance liquid chromatography/ultraviolet assay to determine pharmacokinetics. RESULTS At steady state, the mean Cmax was 42% [95% confidence interval (CI) 19, 69] and 63% (95% CI 20, 122) higher, and mean AUC was 51% (95% CI 24, 83) and 85% (95% CI 32, 159) higher for *1*2 and *2*2 compared with *1*1 subjects, respectively. For M8, the mean Cmax and AUC were 35% (95% CI 6, 55) and 33% (95% CI ,3, 56), respectively, lower for *1*2 compared with *1*1 subjects. M8 was not detectable in *2*2 subjects. The mean Cmax and AUC values for the active moiety were higher by 30,35% for the *1*2 and *2*2 compared with *1*1 subjects. CONCLUSIONS Mutation in CYP2C19 increased the systemic exposure of nelfinavir and reduced the exposure of M8. No significant differences were noted among the heterozygous (*1*2) and homozygous (*2*2) PMs. These changes are not considered to be clinically relevant and hence the use of nelfinavir does not require prior assessment of CYP2C19 genotype.

Babalola PhD Summary Background and objective:, Subjects with different CYP2C19 genotypes may metabolize proguanil, a pro-drug used for malaria prophylaxis differently and the frequency of the different alleles may be different in patients with sickle-cell disease (SCD) and normal controls. The objective of this study was to evaluate CYP2C19 *1, *2 and *3 allele and genotype frequencies in Nigerian normal controls and SCD patients, and to further compare variant CYP2C19 frequencies in Nigerians with other African populations. Methods:, Genotyping was carried out with PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Results and discussion:, CYP2C19 *1 (84·3 vs. 84·9%) or *2 allele frequency (15·7 vs. 15·1%) was not significantly different between patients with SCD and normal subjects. No *3 allele was detected in the cohort. The SCD group exhibited a statistically significantly lower frequency of *1/*1 genotype (69·6%) compared with normal controls (74·4%). Frequency of *2/*2 was significantly lower in SCD (0·9%) compared with normal controls (4·7%). Frequencies of *1/*2 (29·6 vs. 20·9%) were no different in SCD and normal controls. Conclusion:, Prevalence of CYP2C19 polymorphisms was defined for the first time in Nigerian normal and SCD populations. Nigerian SCD patients exhibited significantly lower CYP2C19 *1/*1 and *2/*2 frequencies than normal controls. No differences were detected in CYP2C19 allele or genotype frequencies in normal subjects between this study and previous reports in other African populations. [source] Influence of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms on pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of gliclazide in healthy Chinese Han volunteersJOURNAL OF CLINICAL PHARMACY & THERAPEUTICS, Issue 3 2010H. Shao PhD Summary Background and objective:,CYP2C9 is the major contributor to gliclazide metabolic clearance in vitro, while the pharmacokinetics of gliclazide modified release are affected mainly by CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms in vivo. This study aims to investigate the influence of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of gliclazide in healthy Chinese Han volunteers. Methods:, Eighteen healthy Han subjects with various combinations of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genotypes received 80 mg gliclazide. Plasma gliclazide concentrations were measured by a liquid chromatography,tandem mass spectrometry method for 84 h and plasma glucose and insulin levels were measured up to 15 h post-dose. Results and discussion:, There was no difference in either pharmacokinetic and or pharmacodynamic parameters of gliclazide when group A (CYP2C9*1/*1, CYP2C19 extensive metabolizers) was compared with group B (CYP2C9*1/*3, CYP2C19 *1/*1). When group C (CYP2C9*1/*1 and CYP2C19 poor metabolizers) was compared with group A, the AUC0,, and Cmax in group C were significantly higher [83·94 ± 40·41 vs. 16·39 ± 5·10 ,g·h/mL (P = 0·000) and 1·50 ± 0·85 vs. 0·45 ± 0·18 ,g/mL (P = 0·000)], and the oral clearance was significantly lower [1·17 ± 0·63 vs. 5·38 ± 1·86 L/h (P = 0·000)]. The half-life of gliclazide was also significantly prolonged in group C subjects when compared with that of group A (33·47 ± 12·39 vs. 19·34 ± 10·45 h), but the difference was not significant (P = 0·052). The increase in serum glucose level at 11 h after dosing (,Cglu11) in group C was significantly higher than that of group A (,1·08 ± 0·42 vs. 0·22 ± 1·01 mmol/L, P = 0·022). The corresponding insulin levels showed no difference between the two groups. Conclusion:,CYP2C9*3 was not associated with any change in the disposition of gliclazide. CYP2C19 polymorphisms appear to exert the dominant influence on the pharmacokinetics of gliclazide in healthy Chinese Han subjects, and may also affect the observed pharmacodynamics of the drug as a result. [source] Population pharmacokinetic analysis of cilostazol in healthy subjects with genetic polymorphisms of CYP3A5, CYP2C19 and ABCB1BRITISH JOURNAL OF CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, Issue 1 2010Hee-Doo Yoo WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ABOUT THIS SUBJECT , The interindividual variability of the pharmacokinetic parameters of cilostazol is relatively large. , Cilostazol undergoes extensive hepatic metabolism via the P450 enzymes, primarily CYP3A and, to a lesser extent, CYP2C19. , Indeed, <1% of the administered dose of cilostazol is excreted unchanged in the urine. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS , A population pharmacokinetic analysis of cilostazol was conducted to evaluate the impact of CYP3A, CYP2C19 and ABCB1 polymorphisms on cilostazol disposition in vivo. , Genetic polymorphisms of CYP3A5 and CYP2C19 explain the substantial interindividual variability in the pharmacokinetics of cilostazol. , ABCB1 genotypes do not to appear to be associated with the disposition of cilostazol. AIMS To investigate the influence of genetic polymorphisms in the CYP3A5, CYP2C19 and ABCB1 genes on the population pharmacokinetics of cilostazol in healthy subjects. METHODS Subjects who participated in four separate cilostazol bioequivalence studies with the same protocols were included in this retrospective analysis. One hundred and four healthy Korean volunteers were orally administered a single 50- or 100-mg dose of cilostazol. We estimated the population pharmacokinetics of cilostazol using a nonlinear mixed effects modelling (nonmem) method and explored the possible influence of genetic polymorphisms in CYP3A (CYP3A5*3), CYP2C19 (CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3) and ABCB1 (C1236T, G2677T/A and C3435T) on the population pharmacokinetics of cilostazol. RESULTS A two-compartment model with a first-order absorption and lag time described the cilostazol serum concentrations well. The apparent oral clearance (CL/F) was estimated to be 12.8 l h,1. The volumes of the central and the peripheral compartment were characterized as 20.5 l and 73.1 l, respectively. Intercompartmental clearance was estimated at 5.6 l h,1. Absorption rate constant was estimated at 0.24 h,1 and lag time was predicted at 0.57 h. The genetic polymorphisms of CYP3A5 had a significant (P < 0.001) influence on the CL/F of cilostazol. When CYP2C19 was evaluated, a significant difference (P < 0.01) was observed among the three genotypes (extensive metabolizers, intermediate metabolizers and poor metabolizers) for the CL/F. In addition, a combination of CYP3A5 and CYP2C19 genotypes was found to be associated with a significant difference (P < 0.005) in the CL/F. When including these genotypes, the interindividual variability of the CL/F was reduced from 34.1% in the base model to 27.3% in the final model. However, no significant differences between the ABCB1 genotypes and cilostazol pharmacokinetic parameters were observed. CONCLUSIONS The results of the present study indicate that CYP3A5 and CYP2C19 polymorphisms explain the substantial interindividual variability that occurs in the metabolism of cilostazol. [source] |
