Application of a PBPK model to elucidate the changes of systemic and liver exposures for rosuvastatin, carotegrast, and bromfenac followed by OATP inhibition in monkeys.

ABSTRACT: The impact of organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP) inhibition on systemic and liver exposures of three OATP substrates was investigated in cynomolgus monkeys. A monkey physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was constructed to describe the exposure changes followed by OATP functional attenuation. Rosuvastatin, bromfenac, and carotegrast were administered as a single intravenous cassette dose (0.5 mg/kg each) in monkeys with and without predosing with rifampin (RIF; 20 mg/kg) orally. The plasma exposure of rosuvastatin, bromfenac, carotegrast, and OATP biomarkers, coproporphyrin I (CP-I) and CP-III were increased 2.3, 2.1, 9.1, 5.4, and 8.8-fold, respectively, when compared to the vehicle group. The liver to plasma ratios of rosuvastatin and bromfenac were reduced but th
