Cytochrome P450 3A Induction Predicts P-glycoprotein Induction; Part 1: Establishing Induction Relationships Using Ascending Dose Rifampin.

ABSTRACT: Drug transporter and cytochrome P450 expression is regulated by shared nuclear receptors and, hence, an inducer should induce both, although the magnitude may differ. The objective of this study was to establish relative induction relationships between CYP3A and drug transporters (P-glycoprotein (P-gp), organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP), and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP)) or other P450s (CYP2C9 and CYP1A2) using ascending doses of the prototypical pregnane xenobiotic receptor (PXR) agonist, rifampin, to elicit weak, moderate, and strong PXR agonism. Healthy subjects received dabigatran etexilate, pravastatin, rosuvastatin, and a midazolam/tolbutamide/caffeine cocktail before and after rifampin 2, 10, 75, or 600 mg q.d. Unlike CYP3A, only moderate induction of P-gp, OA
