Assessment of the drug-drug interaction potential for therapeutic proteins with pro-inflammatory activities.

ABSTRACT: It is well-recognized that therapeutic proteins (TPs) with pro-inflammatory activities elevate the pro-inflammatory cytokines and result in cytokine-drug interactions. In the current review, several pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-2, IL-6, IFN-γ, and TNF-α, as well as an anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10, were summarized for their respective effect on major cytochrome P450 enzymes and efflux transporter PgP. Pro-inflammatory cytokines are generally associated with suppression of CYP enzymes across assay systems but have varied effect on Pgp expression levels and activities depending on the individual cytokines and assay systems, whereas IL-10 had no significant impact on CYP enzymes and P-gp. A cocktail drug-drug interaction (DDI) study design could be an ideal approach for simulta
