Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model of sparsentan to evaluate drug-drug interaction potential.

ABSTRACT: Sparsentan is a dual endothelin/angiotensin II receptor antagonist indicated to reduce proteinuria in patients with primary IgA nephropathy at high risk of disease progression. In vitro data indicate that sparsentan is likely to inhibit or induce various CYP enzymes at therapeutic concentrations. Sparsentan as a victim and perpetrator of CYP3A4 mediated drug-drug interactions (DDIs) has been assessed clinically. A mechanistic, bottom-up, physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PK) model for sparsentan was developed based on in vitro data of drug solubility, formulation dissolution and particle size, drug permeability, inhibition and induction of metabolic enzymes, and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) driven efflux. The model was verified using clinical PK data from healthy adult volunteers administere
