Impact of obesity and roux-en-Y gastric bypass on the pharmacokinetics of (R)- and (S)-omeprazole and intragastric pH.

ABSTRACT: This study employed physiologically-based pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamics (PBPK/PD) modeling to predict the effect of obesity and gastric bypass surgery on the pharmacokinetics and intragastric pH following omeprazole treatment. The simulated plasma concentrations closely matched the observed data from non-obese, morbidly obese, and post-gastric bypass populations. Obesity significantly reduces CYP3A4 and CYP2C19 activities, as reflected by the metabolic ratio [omeprazole sulphone]/[omeprazole] and [5-hydroxy-omeprazole]/[omeprazole]. The morbidly obese model accounted for the down-regulation of CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 to recapitulate the observed data. Sensitivity analysis showed that intestinal CYP3A4, gastric pH, small intestine bypass, and the delay in bile release do not have a major infl
