Identification and Functional Assessment of Eight CYP3A4 Allelic Variants *39-*46 Detected in the Chinese Han Population. Drug Metab Dispos 2024; 52:218-227. [PMID: 38195522 DOI: 10.1124/dmd.123.001542] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4), a key enzyme, is pivotal in metabolizing approximately half of the drugs used clinically. The genetic polymorphism of the CYP3A4 gene significantly influences individual variations in drug metabolism, potentially leading to severe adverse drug reactions (ADRs). In this study, we conducted a genetic analysis on CYP3A4 gene in 1163 Chinese Han individuals to identify the genetic variations that might affect their drug metabolism capabilities. For this purpose, a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplicon sequencing technique was developed, enabling us to perform the genotyping of CYP3A4 gene efficiently and economically on a large scale. As a result, a total of 14 CYP3A4 allelic variants were identified, comprising six previously reported alleles and eight new nonsynonymous variants that were nominated as new allelic variants *39-*46 by the PharmVar Association. Further, functional assessments of these novel CYP3A4 variants were undertaken by coexpressing them with cytochromes P450 oxidoreductase (CYPOR) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae microsomes. Immunoblot analysis indicated that with the exception of CYP3A4.40 and CYP3A4.45, the protein expression levels of most new variants were similar to that of the wild-type CYP3A4.1 in yeast cells. To evaluate their catalytic activities, midazolam was used as a probe drug. The results showed that variant CYP3A4.45 had almost no catalytic activity, whereas the other variants exhibited significantly reduced drug metabolism abilities. This suggests that the majority of the CYP3A4 variants identified in the Chinese population possess markedly altered capacities for drug metabolism. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: In this study, we established a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplicon sequencing method and detected the maximum number of new CYP3A4 variants in a single ethnic population. Additionally, we performed the functional characterizations of these eight novel CYP3A4 allele variants in vitro. This study not only contributes to the understanding of CYP3A4 genetic polymorphism in the Chinese Han population but also holds substantial reference value for their potential clinical applications in personalized medicine.

Abstract
Aim: Successful treatment with tacrolimus to prevent graft versus host disease (GVHD) and minimize tacrolimus-related toxicities among allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) recipients is contingent upon quickly achieving and maintaining concentrations within a narrow therapeutic range. The primary objective was to investigate associations between CYP3A4, CYP3A5 or ABCB1 genotype and the proportion of patients that attained an initial tacrolimus goal concentration following initiation of intravenous (iv.) and conversion to oral administration. Materials & methods: We retrospectively evaluated 86 patients who underwent HLA-matched (8/8) related donor alloHCT and were prescribed a tacrolimus-based regimen for GVHD prophylaxis. Results & conclusion: The findings of the present study suggests that CYP3A5 genotype may impact attainment of initial therapeutic tacrolimus concentrations with oral administration in alloHCT recipients.

Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1201083. [PMID: 37564175 PMCID: PMC10409991 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1201083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2023] [Accepted: 07/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose: Tacrolimus (Tac) is a widely used immunosuppressive agent in kidney transplantation. Cytochrome P450 (CYP), especially CYP3A4 enzymes are responsible for the metabolism of drugs. However, the correlation between plasma Tac concentration and CYP3A4*22 gene variants is controversial. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the association between CYP3A4*22 polymorphism and the dose-adjusted trough concentration (C0/D) of Tac in adult kidney transplant patients. Methods: We conducted a literature review for qualifying studies using the PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase databases until July 2023. For the continuous variables (C0/D and daily dose), mean difference (MD) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the association between the CYP3A4 * 22 and Tac pharmacokinetics. We performed an additional analysis on the relationship of CYP3A5*3 with Tac PKs and analyzed the effects of CYP3A4*22 in CYP3A5 non-expressers. Results: Overall, eight eligible studies with 2,683 renal transplant recipients were included in this meta-analysis. The CYP3A4*22 allele was significantly associated with a higher C0/D (MD 0.57 ng/mL/mg (95% CI: 0.28 to 0.86; p = 0.0001) and lower mean daily dose requirement (MD -2.02 mg/day, 95% CI: -2.55 to -1.50; p < 0.00001). An additional meta-analysis demonstrated that carrying the CYP3A5*3 polymorphism greatly impacted Tac blood concentration. From the result with CYP3A5 non-expressers, CYP3A4*22 showed significant effects on the Tac C0/D and dose requirement even after adjusting the effect of CYP3A5*3. Conclusion: Patients with CYP3A4*22 allele showed significantly higher plasma C0/D of Tac and required lower daily dose to achieve the therapeutic trough level after kidney transplantation. These findings of our meta-analysis may provide further evidence for the effects of genetic polymorphism in CYP3A4 on the PKs of Tac, which will improve individualized treatment in a clinical setting.

Abstract
Background: Taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) is an important cause of premature treatment cessation and dose-limitation in cancer therapy. It also reduces quality of life and survivorship in affected patients. Genetic polymorphisms in the CYP3A family have been investigated but the findings have been inconsistent and contradictory. Methods: A systematic review identified 12 pharmacogenetic studies investigating genetic variation in CYP3A4*22 and CYP3A5*3 and TIPN. In our candidate gene study, 288 eligible participants (211 taxane participants receiving docetaxel or paclitaxel, and 77 control participants receiving oxaliplatin) were successfully genotyped for CYP3A4*22 and CYP3A5*3. Genotyping data was transformed into a combined CYP3A metaboliser phenotype: Poor metabolisers, intermediate metabolisers and extensive metabolisers. Individual genotypes and combined CYP3A metaboliser phenotypes were assessed in relation to neurotoxicity, including by meta-analysis where possible. Results: In the systematic review, no significant association was found between CYP3A5*3 and TIPN in seven studies, with one study reporting a protective association. For CYP3A4*22, one study has reported an association with TIPN, while four other studies failed to show an association. Evaluation of our patient cohort showed that paclitaxel was found to be more neurotoxic than docetaxel (p < 0.001). Diabetes was also significantly associated with the development of TIPN. The candidate gene analysis showed no significant association between either SNP (CYP3A5*3 and CYP3A4*22) and the development of TIPN overall, or severe TIPN. Meta-analysis showed no association between these two variants and TIPN. Transformed into combined CYP3A metaboliser phenotypes, 30 taxane recipients were poor metabolisers, 159 were intermediate metabolisers, and 22 were extensive metabolisers. No significant association was observed between metaboliser status and case-control status. Summary: We have shown that the risk of peripheral neuropathy during taxane chemotherapy is greater in patients who have diabetes. CYP3A genotype or phenotype was not identified as a risk factor in either the candidate gene analysis or the systematic review/meta-analysis, although we cannot exclude the possibility of a minor contribution, which would require a larger sample size.

Abstract
Kidney transplantation is the preferred therapeutic option for end-stage kidney disease, but, despite major therapeutic advancements, allograft rejection continues to endanger graft survival. Every patient is unique due to his or her clinical history, drug metabolism, genetic background, and epigenetics. For this reason, examples of "personalized medicine" and "precision medicine" have steadily increased in recent decades. The final target of precision medicine is to maximize drug efficacy and minimize toxicity for each individual patient. Immunosuppressive drugs, in the setting of kidney transplantation, require a precise dosage to avoid either adverse events (overdosage) or a lack of efficacy (underdosage). In this review, we will explore the knowledge regarding the pharmacogenomics of the main immunosuppressive medications currently utilized in kidney transplantation. We will focus on clinically relevant pharmacogenomic data, that is, the polymorphisms of the genes that metabolize immunosuppressive drugs.

J Clin Pharm Ther 2022; 47:2255-2263. [PMID: 36379901 DOI: 10.1111/jcpt.13804] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Revised: 10/24/2022] [Accepted: 10/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Tacrolimus is a widely prescribed immunosuppressant agent for kidney transplantation. However, optimal dosing is challenging due to its narrow therapeutic index, potentially serious adverse effects, and wide inter-individual variability in pharmacokinetics. Cytochrome P450 3A (CPY3A) enzymes metabolize tacrolimus, so allelic variants such as CYP3A4*22 and CYP3A5*3 may contribute to individual differences in pharmacokinetics and therapeutic efficacy of tacrolimus. This study assessed the frequency and influences of CYP3A4*22 and CYP3A5*3 genotypes, alone and combined, on tacrolimus pharmacokinetics and dose requirements in Egyptian kidney transplant patients. METHODS This is a prospective multicenter observational cohort study. Patients were genotyped for the CYP3A4*22 (rs35599367), and CYP3A5*3 (rs776746). Tacrolimus dose (mg), through blood level (ng/ml), and dose-adjusted trough concentration (C0/D) (ng/ml per mg/kg) were recorded during the first and third months post-transplantation and compared among genotype groups. RESULTS The CYP3A4*22 allele was rare (3.2% of subjects) while the CYP3A5*3 allele was widespread (90.38%) in this cohort. At the third month post-transplantation, median C0/D was significantly higher among CYP3A4*22 carriers than CYP3A4*1/*1 (146.25 [100-380] versus 85.57 [27-370] ng/ml per mg/kg, p = 0.028). Patients harbouring the one copy of the CYP3A4*22 allele and the CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype (n = 5) were classified as poor tacrolimus metabolizers, the CYP3A5*3/*3 plus CYP3A4*1/*1 genotype as intermediate metabolizers (n = 60), and the CYP3A4*1/*1 plus CYP3A5*1/*1 genotype as normal metabolizers (n = 13). During the first month post-transplantation, C0/D was significantly greater in poor metabolizers (113.07 ng/ml per mg/kg) than intermediate and normal metabolizers (90.380 and 49.09 ng/ml per mg/kg) (p < 0.0005). This rank order was also observed during the third month. Acute rejection rate and renal function at discharge did not differ among genotypes. CONCLUSION Pharmacogenetics testing for CYP3A4*22 and CYP3A5*3 before renal transplantation may help in the adjustment of tacrolimus starting dose and identify patients at risk of tacrolimus overexposure or underexposure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The main goal of immunosuppressive agents is to reach a balance of preserving allograft function while minimizing adverse effects. The purpose of our research is to corroborate the role of CYP3A enzyme in developing individual medication therapy via measuring medicine levels in patients' blood samples. METHODS This retrospective analysis studies 15 kidney transplant recipients. We carried out genotyping (CYP3A5, CYP3A4) after isolating DNA and RNA in patient and donor blood samples; we also determined CYP3A4 messenger RNA expression in case of recipients. Tacrolimus blood levels, dosage, and tacrolimus concentration normalized by dose and the body weight (C0/D ratio) were evaluated. RESULTS In this research, recipients were divided into 2 groups based on their CYP3A5 genotype. Those who carry CYP3A5*1 allele (*1/*1 or *1/*3) are CYP3A5 expressors, whereas those who are homozygous for the nonfunctional CYP3A5*3 allele are CYP3A5 nonexpressors. There were 3 patients with functioning CYP3A5 enzyme (patients with CYP3A5*1/*3 genotype) where increased tacrolimus metabolism was expected. Our data show that C0/D ratio of CYP3A5 nonexpressors was around 3 times higher than of CYP3A5 expressors. Looking at CYP3A4 enzyme, we found 1 patient carried CYP3A4*22/*22 genotype where we expected decreased CYP3A4 expression. It is clear that this patient had adequate therapy medication levels (9.50 μg/L) despite having received very low dosage of tacrolimus (0.03 mg/weight/d). CONCLUSIONS Our results confirmed the importance of determining CYP status of recipients after a transplant because individual differences were observed in tacrolimus treatment that were partly influenced by CYP status of recipients.

Abstract
Vitamin D has received considerable optimistic attention as a potentially important factor in many pathological states over the past few decades. However, the proportion of the active form of vitamin D metabolites responsible for biological activity is highly questionable in disease states due to flexible alterations in the enzymes responsible for their metabolism. For instance, CYP3A4 plays a crucial role in the biotransformation of vitamin D and other drug substances. Food-drug and/or drug-drug interactions, the disease state, genetic polymorphism, age, sex, diet, and environmental factors all influence CYP3A4 activity. Genetic polymorphisms in CYP450-encoding genes have received considerable attention in the past few decades due to their extensive impact on the pharmacokinetic and dynamic properties of drugs and endogenous substances. In this review, we focused on CYP3A4 polymorphisms and their interplay with vitamin D metabolism and summarized the role of vitamin D in calcium homeostasis, bone diseases, diabetes, cancer, other diseases, and drug substances. We also reviewed clinical observations pertaining to CYP3A4 polymorphisms among the aforementioned disease conditions. In addition, we highlighted the future perspectives of studying the pharmacogenetics of CYP3A4, which may have potential clinical significance for developing novel diagnostic genetic markers that will ascertain disease risk and progression.

Abstract
Genetic variation in the CYP3A4 and CYP3A5 (CYP3A4/5) genes, which encode the key enzymes in tacrolimus metabolism, is associated with tacrolimus clearance and dose requirements. Tacrolimus has a narrow therapeutic index with high intra- and intersubject variability, in part because of genetic variation. High tacrolimus clearance and low trough concentration are associated with a greater risk for rejection, whereas high troughs are associated with calcineurin-induced toxicity. The objective of this study was to develop a model of tacrolimus clearance with a dosing equation accounting for genotypes and clinical factors in adult kidney transplant recipients of European ancestry that could preemptively guide dosing. Recipients receiving immediate-release tacrolimus for maintenance immunosuppression from 2 multicenter studies were included. Participants in the GEN03 study were used for tacrolimus model development (n = 608 recipients) and was validated by prediction performance in the DeKAF Genomics study (n = 1361 recipients). Nonlinear mixed-effects modeling was used to develop the apparent oral tacrolimus clearance (CL/F) model. CYP3A4/5 genotypes and clinical covariates were tested for their influence on CL/F. The predictive performance of the model was determined by assessing the bias (median prediction error [ME] and median percentage error [MPE]) and the precision (root median squared error [RMSE]) of the model. CYP3A5*3, CYP3A4*22, corticosteroids, calcium channel blocker and antiviral drug use, age, and diabetes significantly contributed to the interindividual variability of oral tacrolimus apparent clearance. The bias (ME, MPE) and precision (RMSE) of the final model was good, 0.49 ng/mL, 6.5%, and 3.09 ng/mL, respectively. Prospective testing of this equation is warranted.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) is the most important drug metabolizing enzyme in the liver, responsible for the oxidative metabolism of ∼50% of clinically prescribed drugs. Therefore, genetic variation in CYP3A4 could potentially affect the pharmacokinetics, toxicity and clinical outcome of drug treatment. Thus far, pharmacogenetics for CYP3A4 has not received much attention. However, the recent discovery of the intron 6 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs35599367C > T, encoding the CYP3A4∗22 allele, led to several studies into the pharmacogenetic effect of CYP3A4∗22 on different drugs. This allele has a relatively minor allele frequency of 3-5% and an effect on CYP3A4 enzymatic activity. Thus far, no review summarizing the data published on several drugs is available yet. This article therefore addresses the current knowledge on CYP3A4∗22. This information may help in deciding if, and for which drugs, CYP3A4∗22 genotype-based dosing could be helpful in improving drug therapy. CYP3A4∗22 was shown to significantly influence the pharmacokinetics of several drugs, with currently being most thoroughly investigated tacrolimus, cyclosporine, and statins. Additional studies, focusing on toxicity and clinical outcome, are warranted to demonstrate clinical utility of CYP3A4∗22 genotype-based dosing.

Abstract
Tacrolimus trough and dose requirements vary dramatically between individuals of European and African American ancestry. These differences are less well described in other populations. We conducted an observational, prospective, multicenter study from which 2595 kidney transplant recipients of European, African, Native American, and Asian ancestry were studied for tacrolimus trough, doses, and genetic determinants of metabolism. We studied the well-known variants and conducted a CYP3A4/5 gene-wide analysis to identify new variants. Daily doses, and dose-normalized troughs were significantly different between the four groups (P < .001). CYP3A5*3 (rs776746) was associated with higher dose-normalized tacrolimus troughs in all groups but occurred at different allele frequencies and had differing effect sizes. The CYP3A5*6 (rs10264272) and *7 (rs413003343) variants were only present in African Americans. CYP3A4*22 (rs35599367) was not found in any of the Asian ancestry samples. We identified seven suggestive variants in the CYP3A4/5 genes associated with dose-normalized troughs in Native Americans (P = 1.1 × 10-5 -8.8 × 10-6 ) and one suggestive variant in Asian Americans (P = 5.6 × 10-6 ). Tacrolimus daily doses and dose-normalized troughs vary significantly among different ancestry groups. We identified potential new variants important in Asians and Native Americans. Studies with larger populations should be conducted to assess the importance of the identified suggestive variants.

Abstract
Background: Although there is evidence that the CYP3A4*22 variant should be considered in tacrolimus dosing in renal transplantation, its impact beyond tacrolimus dose requirements remains controversial. Methods: In a cohort of 121 kidney transplant recipients, we analyzed the CYP3A4*1B, CYP3A4*22, and CYP3A5*3 alleles and the ABCB1 variants 1236C>T, 2677G>T/A, and 3435C>T for their impact on exposure and dose requirement. Relevant clinical outcome measures such as acute rejection within the first year after transplantation, delayed graft function, and renal function at discharge (estimated glomerular filtration rate) were evaluated. Results: Extensive metabolizer (n = 17, CYP3A4*1/*1 carriers with at least one CYP3A5*1 allele) showed significantly higher tacrolimus dose requirement (P = 0.004) compared with both intermediate metabolizer (IM, n = 93, CYP3A5*3/*3 plus CYP3A4*1/*1 or CYP3A4*22 carriers plus one CYP3A5*1 allele), and poor metabolizer (n = 11, CYP3A4*22 allele in combination with CYP3A5*3/*3) after onset of therapy. Significantly higher dose requirement was observed in CYP3A5 expressers (P = 0.046) compared with non-expressers again at onset of therapy. Using the log additive genetic model, the area under the curve for the total observation period up to 16 days was significantly associated with the CYP3A5*3 genotype (P = 3.34 × 10-4) as well as with the IM or extensive metabolizer phenotype (P = 1.54 × 10-4), even after adjustment for multiple testing. Heterozygous carriers for CYP3A4*22 showed significantly higher areas under the curve than the CYP3A4*1/*1 genotype in the second week post-transplantation (adjusted P = 0.016). Regarding clinical outcomes, acute rejection was significantly associated with human leukocyte antigen mismatch (≥3 alleles; OR = 12.14, 95% CI 1.76, 525.21, P = 0.019 after correction for multiple testing). Graft recipients from deceased donors showed higher incidende of delayed graft function (OR 7.15, 95% CI 2.23, 30.46, adjusted P = 0.0008) and a lower estimated glomerular filtration rate at discharge (P = 0.0001). Tested CYP3A4 or CYP3A5 variants did not show any effects on clinical outcome parameters. ABCB1 variants did neither impact on pharmacokinetics nor on clinical endpoints. Conclusion: At our transplantation center, both CYP3A5*3 and, to a lesser extent, CYP3A4*22 affect tacrolimus pharmacokinetics early after onset of therapy with consequences for steady-state treatment in routine clinical practice.

Abstract
Physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling allows assessment of the covariates contributing to the large pharmacokinetic (PK) variability of tacrolimus; these include multiple physiological and biochemical differences among patients. A PBPK model of tacrolimus was developed, including a virtual population with physiological parameter distributions reflecting renal transplant patients. The ratios of predicted to observed dose‐normalized maximum plasma concentration (Cmax), 0–12‐hour area under the concentration–time curve (AUC0–12 hour), and trough plasma concentration (Ctrough) ranged from 0.92‐fold to 1.15‐fold, indicating good predictive performance. The model quantitatively indicated the impact of cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4 abundance, hematocrit, and serum albumin levels, in addition to CYP3A5 genotype status, on tacrolimus PK and associated variability. Age‐dependent change in tacrolimus trough concentration in pediatric patients was mainly attributed to the CYP3A ontogeny profile. This study demonstrates the utility of PBPK modeling as a tool for mechanistic and quantitative assessment of the impact of patient physiological differences on observed large PK variability.
