Assessment of the Effects of Inhibition or Induction of CYP2C19 and CYP2C9 Enzymes, or Inhibition of OAT3, on the Pharmacokinetics of Abrocitinib and Its Metabolites in Healthy Individuals.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objective

Abrocitinib is a Janus kinase 1-selective inhibitor for the treatment of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. Abrocitinib is eliminated primarily by metabolism involving cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. Abrocitinib pharmacologic activity is attributable to the unbound concentrations of the parent molecule and 2 active metabolites, which are substrates of organic anion transporter 3 (OAT3). The sum of potency-adjusted unbound exposures of abrocitinib and its 2 active metabolites is termed the abrocitinib active moiety. We evaluated effects of CYP inhibition, CYP induction, and OAT3 inhibition on the pharmacokinetics of abrocitinib, its metabolites, and active moiety.
