Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modeling of dextromethorphan to investigate interindividual variability within CYP2D6 activity score groups.

ABSTRACT: This study provides a whole-body physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model of dextromethorphan and its metabolites dextrorphan and dextrorphan O-glucuronide for predicting the effects of cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) drug-gene interactions (DGIs) on dextromethorphan pharmacokinetics (PK). Moreover, the effect of interindividual variability (IIV) within CYP2D6 activity score groups on the PK of dextromethorphan and its metabolites was investigated. A parent-metabolite-metabolite PBPK model of dextromethorphan, dextrorphan, and dextrorphan O-glucuronide was developed in PK-Sim and MoBi. Drug-dependent parameters were obtained from the literature or optimized. Plasma concentration-time profiles of all three analytes were gathered from published studies and used for model development a
