Project description:Metformin is an important antidiabetic drug and often used as a probe for drug-drug interactions (DDIs) mediated by renal transporters. Despite evidence supporting the inhibition of multidrug and toxin extrusion proteins as the likely DDI mechanism, the previously reported physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model required the substantial lowering of the inhibition constant values of cimetidine for multidrug and toxin extrusion proteins from those obtained in vitro to capture the clinical DDI data between metformin and cimetidine.1 We constructed new PBPK models in which the transporter-mediated uptake of metformin is driven by a constant membrane potential. Our models successfully captured the clinical DDI data using in vitro inhibition constant values and supported the inhibition of multidrug and toxin extrusion proteins by cimetidine as the DDI mechanism upon sensitivity analysis and data fitting. Our refined PBPK models may facilitate prediction approaches for DDI involving metformin using in vitro inhibition constant values.

Project description:IntroductionElagolix is approved for the management of moderate-to-severe pain associated with endometriosis. The aim of this analysis was to develop a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model that describes the enzyme-transporter interplay involved in the disposition of elagolix and to predict the magnitude of drug-drug interaction (DDI) potential of elagolix as an inhibitor of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and inducer of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4.MethodsA PBPK model (SimCYP® version 15.0.86.0) was developed using elagolix data from in vitro, clinical PK and DDI studies. Data from DDI studies were used to quantify contributions of the uptake transporter organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1 and CYP3A4 in the disposition of elagolix, and to quantitatively assess the perpetrator potential of elagolix as a CYP3A4 inducer and P-gp inhibitor.ResultsAfter accounting for the interplay between elagolix metabolism by CYP3A4 and uptake by OATP1B1, the model-predicted PK parameters of elagolix along with the DDI AUC∞ and Cmax ratios, were within 1.5-fold of the observed data. Based on model simulations, elagolix 200 mg administered twice daily is a moderate inducer of CYP3A4 (approximately 56% reduction in midazolam AUC∞). Simulations of elagolix 150 mg administered once daily with digoxin predicted an increase in digoxin Cmax and AUC∞ by 68% and 19%, respectively.ConclusionsA PBPK model of elagolix was developed, verified, and applied to characterize the disposition interplay between CYP3A4 and OATP1B1, and to predict the DDI potential of elagolix as a perpetrator under dosing conditions that were not tested clinically. PBPK model-based predictions were used to support labeling language for DDI recommendations of elagolix.

Project description:PurposeTo build a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model of the clinical OATP1B1/OATP1B3/BCRP victim drug rosuvastatin for the investigation and prediction of its transporter-mediated drug-drug interactions (DDIs).MethodsThe Rosuvastatin model was developed using the open-source PBPK software PK-Sim®, following a middle-out approach. 42 clinical studies (dosing range 0.002-80.0 mg), providing rosuvastatin plasma, urine and feces data, positron emission tomography (PET) measurements of tissue concentrations and 7 different rosuvastatin DDI studies with rifampicin, gemfibrozil and probenecid as the perpetrator drugs, were included to build and qualify the model.ResultsThe carefully developed and thoroughly evaluated model adequately describes the analyzed clinical data, including blood, liver, feces and urine measurements. The processes implemented to describe the rosuvastatin pharmacokinetics and DDIs are active uptake by OATP2B1, OATP1B1/OATP1B3 and OAT3, active efflux by BCRP and Pgp, metabolism by CYP2C9 and passive glomerular filtration. The available clinical rifampicin, gemfibrozil and probenecid DDI studies were modeled using in vitro inhibition constants without adjustments. The good prediction of DDIs was demonstrated by simulated rosuvastatin plasma profiles, DDI AUClast ratios (AUClast during DDI/AUClast without co-administration) and DDI Cmax ratios (Cmax during DDI/Cmax without co-administration), with all simulated DDI ratios within 1.6-fold of the observed values.ConclusionsA whole-body PBPK model of rosuvastatin was built and qualified for the prediction of rosuvastatin pharmacokinetics and transporter-mediated DDIs. The model is freely available in the Open Systems Pharmacology model repository, to support future investigations of rosuvastatin pharmacokinetics, rosuvastatin therapy and DDI studies during model-informed drug discovery and development (MID3).

Project description:Childhood obesity continues to rise in the United States and, with it, the off-label use of metformin for weight loss. The influence of age and obesity on the drug's disposition and exposure has not previously been studied using a mechanistic framework. Here, an adult physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model of metformin was scaled to pediatric populations without obesity, with overweight/obesity, and with severe obesity; a published virtual population of children and adolescents with obesity was leveraged during model evaluation. When the pediatric model was simulated in groups aged 10 to 18 years, oral clearance following 1000 mg of metformin was higher (≈1200 mL/min) in those with obesity and severe obesity compared to the groups without and with overweight (≈1000 mL/min). In addition, simulated area under the concentration-time curve in older children and adolescents with obesity and severe obesity was comparable to that in adults with a similar dose-exposure relationship. Overall, simulations using the pediatric PBPK model support the use of adult doses of metformin in older children and adolescents with obesity. Moreover, the virtual population of children and adolescents with obesity offers a valuable tool to facilitate development of pediatric PBPK models for studying populations with obesity and, in turn, contribute information to inform drug labeling in this special population.

Project description:Levonorgestrel (LNG) is the active moiety in many hormonal contraceptive formulations. It is typically coformulated with ethinyl estradiol (EE) to decrease intermenstrual bleeding. Due to its widespread use and CYP3A4-mediated metabolism, there is concern regarding drug-drug interactions (DDIs), particularly a suboptimal LNG exposure when co-administered with CYP3A4 inducers, potentially leading to unintended pregnancies. The goal of this analysis was to determine the impact of DDIs on the systemic exposure of LNG. To this end, we developed and verified a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for LNG in PK-Sim (version 8.0) accounting for the impact of EE and body mass index (BMI) on LNG's binding to sex-hormone binding globulin. Model parameters were optimized following intravenous and oral administration of 0.09 mg LNG. The combined LNG-EE PBPK model was verified regarding CYP3A4-mediated interaction by comparing to published clinical DDI study data with carbamazepine, rifampicin, and efavirenz (CYP3A4 inducers). Once verified, the model was applied to predict systemic LNG exposure in normal BMI and obese women (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 ) with and without co-administration of itraconazole (competitive CYP3A4 inhibitor) and clarithromycin (mechanism-based CYP3A4 inhibitor). Total and free LNG exposures, when co-administered with EE, decreased 2-fold in the presence of rifampin, whereas they increased 1.5-fold in the presence of itraconazole. Although changes in total and unbound exposure were decreased in obese women compared with normal BMI women, the relative impact of DDIs on LNG exposure was similar between both groups.

Project description:Quantitative assessment of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) involving breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) inhibition is challenged by overlapping substrate/inhibitor specificity. This study used physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling to delineate the effects of inhibitor drugs on BCRP- and organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B-mediated disposition of rosuvastatin, which is a recommended BCRP clinical probe. Initial static model analysis using in vitro inhibition data suggested BCRP/OATP1B DDI risk while considering regulatory cutoff criteria for a majority of inhibitors assessed (25 of 27), which increased rosuvastatin plasma exposure to varying degree (~ 0-600%). However, rosuvastatin area under plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) was minimally impacted by BCRP inhibitors with calculated G-value (= gut concentration/inhibition potency) below 100. A comprehensive PBPK model accounting for intestinal (OATP2B1 and BCRP), hepatic (OATP1B, BCRP, and MRP4), and renal (OAT3) transport mechanisms was developed for rosuvastatin. Adopting in vitro inhibition data, rosuvastatin plasma AUC changes were predicted within 25% error for 9 of 12 inhibitors evaluated via PBPK modeling. This study illustrates the adequacy and utility of a mechanistic model-informed approach in quantitatively assessing BCRP-mediated DDIs.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Metformin is a widely prescribed antidiabetic BCS Class III drug (low permeability) that depends on active transport for its absorption and disposition. It is recommended by the US Food and Drug Administration as a clinical substrate of organic cation transporter 2/multidrug and toxin extrusion protein for drug-drug interaction studies. Cimetidine is a potent organic cation transporter 2/multidrug and toxin extrusion protein inhibitor. OBJECTIVE:The objective of this study was to provide mechanistic whole-body physiologically based pharmacokinetic models of metformin and cimetidine, built and evaluated to describe the metformin-SLC22A2 808G>T drug-gene interaction, the cimetidine-metformin drug-drug interaction, and the impact of renal impairment on metformin exposure. METHODS:Physiologically based pharmacokinetic models were developed in PK-Sim® (version 8.0). Thirty-nine clinical studies (dosing range 0.001-2550 mg), providing metformin plasma and urine data, positron emission tomography measurements of tissue concentrations, studies in organic cation transporter 2 polymorphic volunteers, drug-drug interaction studies with cimetidine, and data from patients in different stages of chronic kidney disease, were used to develop the metformin model. Twenty-seven clinical studies (dosing range 100-800 mg), reporting cimetidine plasma and urine concentrations, were used for the cimetidine model development. RESULTS:The established physiologically based pharmacokinetic models adequately describe the available clinical data, including the investigated drug-gene interaction, drug-drug interaction, and drug-drug-gene interaction studies, as well as the metformin exposure during renal impairment. All modeled drug-drug interaction area under the curve and maximum concentration ratios are within 1.5-fold of the observed ratios. The clinical data of renally impaired patients shows the expected increase in metformin exposure with declining kidney function, but also indicates counter-regulatory mechanisms in severe renal disease; these mechanisms were implemented into the model based on findings in preclinical species. CONCLUSIONS:Whole-body physiologically based pharmacokinetic models of metformin and cimetidine were built and qualified for the prediction of metformin pharmacokinetics during drug-gene interaction, drug-drug interaction, and different stages of renal disease. The model files will be freely available in the Open Systems Pharmacology model repository. Current guidelines for metformin treatment of renally impaired patients should be reviewed to avoid overdosing in CKD3 and to allow metformin therapy of CKD4 patients.

Project description:Herb-drug interaction predictions remain challenging. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling was used to improve prediction accuracy of potential herb-drug interactions using the semipurified milk thistle preparation, silibinin, as an exemplar herbal product. Interactions between silibinin constituents and the probe substrates warfarin (CYP2C9) and midazolam (CYP3A) were simulated. A low silibinin dose (160 mg/day × 14 days) was predicted to increase midazolam area under the curve (AUC) by 1%, which was corroborated with external data; a higher dose (1,650 mg/day × 7 days) was predicted to increase midazolam and (S)-warfarin AUC by 5% and 4%, respectively. A proof-of-concept clinical study confirmed minimal interaction between high-dose silibinin and both midazolam and (S)-warfarin (9 and 13% increase in AUC, respectively). Unexpectedly, (R)-warfarin AUC decreased (by 15%), but this is unlikely to be clinically important. Application of this PBPK modeling framework to other herb-drug interactions could facilitate development of guidelines for quantitative prediction of clinically relevant interactions.CPT Pharmacometrics Syst.

Project description:Rosuvastatin is a frequently used probe in transporter-mediated drug-drug interaction (DDI) studies. This report describes the development of a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model of rosuvastatin for prediction of pharmacokinetic (PK) DDIs. The rosuvastatin model predicted the observed single (i.v. and oral) and multiple dose PK profiles, as well as the impact of coadministration with transporter inhibitors. The predicted effects of rifampin and cyclosporine (6.58-fold and 5.07-fold increase in rosuvastatin area under the curve (AUC), respectively) were mediated primarily via inhibition of hepatic organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP)1B1 (Inhibition constant (Ki ) ∼1.1 and 0.014 µM, respectively) and OATP1B3 (Ki ∼0.3 and 0.007 µM, respectively), with cyclosporine also inhibiting intestinal breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP; Ki ∼0.07 µM). The predicted effects of gemfibrozil and its metabolite were moderate (1.88-fold increase in rosuvastatin AUC) and mediated primarily via inhibition of hepatic OATP1B1 and renal organic cation transporter 3. This model of rosuvastatin will be useful in prospectively predicting transporter-mediated DDIs with novel pharmaceutical agents in development.
