Results From Drug-Drug Interaction Studies In Vitro and In Vivo Investigating the Inhibitory Effect of Finerenone on the Drug Transporters BCRP, OATP1B1, and OATP1B3.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objectives

In vitro and in vivo studies were performed with the novel, selective, nonsteroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist finerenone to assess the relevance of inhibitory effects on the transporters breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1), and OATP1B3. These transporters are involved in the disposition of a number of drugs, including statins. Statins are also a frequent comedication in patients receiving finerenone. Therefore, inhibitory effects on BCRP and OATPs are of potential clinical relevance.

Methods

The effect on the transport of specific substrates of BCRP and OATP1B1/1B3 was assessed in cell-based in vitro assays with finerenone or its metabolites. A fixed-sequence crossover study in 14
