Influence of CYP2D6 Phenotypes on the Pharmacokinetics of Aripiprazole and Dehydro-Aripiprazole Using a Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Approach.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objectives

Aripiprazole is an atypical antipsychotic drug that is metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 and CYP3A4, which mainly form its active metabolite dehydro-aripiprazole. Because of the genetic polymorphism of CYP2D6, plasma concentrations are highly variable between different phenotypes. In this study, phenotype-related physiologically based pharmacokinetic models were developed and evaluated to suggest phenotype-guided dose adjustments.

Methods

Physiologically based pharmacokinetic models for single dose (oral and orodispersible formulation), multiple dose, and steady-state condition were built using trial data from genotyped healthy volunteers. Based on evaluated models, dose adjustments were simulated to compensate for genetically caused differen
