Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is touted as essential for the future of precision medicine. But the opportunity cost of PGx from the prescribers' perspective is rarely considered. The aim of this article is to critique PGx-guided prescribing using clinical pharmacology principles so that important cases for PGx testing are not missed by doctors responsible for therapeutic decision making. AREAS COVERED Three categories of PGx and their limitations are outlined - exposure PGx, response PGx, and immune-mediated safety PGx. Clinical pharmacology reasons are given for the narrow scope of PGx-guided prescribing apart from a few medical specialties. Clinical problems for doctors that may arise from PGx are then explained, including mismatch between patients' expectations of PGx testing and the benefits or answers it provides. EXPERT OPINION Contrary to popular opinion, PGx is unlikely to become the cornerstone of precision medicine. Sound clinical pharmacology reasons explain why PGx-guided prescribing is unnecessary for most drugs. Pharmacogenomics is important for niche areas of prescribing but has limited clinical utility more broadly. The opportunity cost of PGx-guided prescribing is currently too great for most doctors.

CYP2C19 Loss-of-function Polymorphisms are Associated with Reduced Risk of Sulfonylurea Treatment Failure in Chinese Patients with Type 2 Diabetes. Clin Pharmacol Ther 2021; 111:461-469. [PMID: 34656068 PMCID: PMC9297921 DOI: 10.1002/cpt.2446] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2021] [Accepted: 10/08/2021] [Indexed: 01/14/2023]
Abstract
Sulfonylureas (SUs) are predominantly metabolized by cytochrome p450 2C9 (CYP2C9) and cytochrome p450 2C19 (CYP2C19) enzymes. CYP2C9 polymorphisms are associated with greater treatment response and hypoglycemic risk in SU users. However, there are no large scale pharmacogenetic studies investigating the effect of loss‐of‐function alleles CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3, which occur frequently in East Asians. Retrospective pharmacogenetic analysis was performed in 11,495 genotyped patients who were enrolled in the Hong Kong Diabetes Register between 1995 and 2017, with follow‐up to December 31, 2019. The associations of CYP2C19 polymorphisms with SU treatment failure, early HbA1c response, and severe hypoglycemia were analyzed by Cox regression or logistic regression assuming an additive genetic model. There were 2341 incident SU users that were identified (mean age 59 years, median diabetes duration 9 years), of which 324 were CYP2C19 poor metabolizers (CYP2C19 *2/*2 or *2/*3 or *3/*3). CYP2C19 poor metabolizers had lower risk of SU treatment failure (hazard ratio 0.83, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.72–0.97, P = 0.018) and were more likely to reach the HbA1c treatment target < 7% (odds ratio 1.52, 95% CI 1.02–2.27, P = 0.039) than wild‐type carriers (CYP2C19 *1/*1) following adjustment for multiple covariates. There were no significant differences in severe hypoglycemia rates among different CYP2C19 genotype groups. CYP2C19 polymorphisms should be considered during personalization of SU therapy.

Abstract
Aim Type 2 diabetes (T2D), as a major cause of morbidity and mortality, is predicted to have a prevalence of 629 million by 2045. As diabetic patients show considerable inter-individual variation in response to antidiabetic treatment, this study aimed to investigate the gene polymorphism of cytochrome P450 as well as the effectiveness and safety of glibenclamide and gliclazide for different genotypes of CYP2C9. Besides, the chronic side effects of T2D including retinal microvasculature complications or retinopathy and renal dysfunction due to nephropathy in different genotypes were considered. Patients and Methods The participants including 80 T2D patients treated with glibenclamide or gliclazide were recruited from university hospitals of Ahvaz Jundishpur University of Medical Sciences, Ahvaz, in the southwest of Iran. Blood samples were collected from the patients at 2.5h after the morning dose of glibenclamide and 12h after the last dose of gliclazide. Genotyping from the extracted DNA was, then, performed using PCR-RFLP. The plasma level of glibenclamide and gliclazide was, in turn, measured by the reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography. Results The results showed that the wild-type allele, i.e., CYP2C9*1, occurred in the highest frequency (0.8), while the frequency rates of the mutant allele, i.e., CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3, were 0.15 and 0.05, respectively. Moreover, no significant association was found between any of the genotypes as well as the clinical and biochemical characteristics of the patients. The findings also showed that the plasma level of sulfonylureas (i.e., glibenclamide and gliclazide) was the highest in the patients with the CYP2C9*3 allele. It was also found that 75.9% of the patients with variant genotypes had experienced hypoglycemia events. Furthermore, in the absence of wild type allele, a significant increase was observed in retinopathy (p=0.039) and nephropathy (p=0.05). Conclusion The findings can provide guidelines for the optimal management of the treatment protocols with sulfonylurea intended to control the T2D complications.

Abstract
Diabetes is a disease defined on the basis of hyperglycemia. There are monogenic forms of diabetes where defining the genetic cause has a dramatic impact on treatment—with patients being able to transition from insulin to sulfonylureas. However, the majority of diabetes is type 2 diabetes. This review outlines the robust evidence accrued to date for pharmacogenetics of metformin, sulfonylureas, thiazolidinediones, and dipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitors but highlights that these variants will only be of clinical utility when the genotype is already known at the point of prescribing. The future of pharmacogenetics in diabetes and other common complex disease relies on a paradigm shift—that of preemptive panel genotyping and use of clinical decision support tools to assimilate this genetic information with other clinical phenotypic data and to present this information simply to the prescriber. Given the recent dramatic fall in genotyping costs, this future is not far off.

Abstract
Ruxolitinib is mainly metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 followed by minor contributions of other hepatic CYP enzymes in vitro. A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was established to evaluate the changes in the ruxolitinib systemic exposures with co-administration of CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 perpetrators. The fractions metabolized in the liver via oxidation by CYP enzymes (fm,CYP3A4 = 0.75, fm,CYP2C9 = 0.19, and fm,CYPothers = 0.06) for an initial ruxolitinib model based on in vitro data were optimized (0.43, 0.56, and 0.01, respectively) using the observed exposure changes of ruxolitinib (10 mg) with co-administered ketoconazole (200 mg). The reduced amount of fm,CYP3A4 was distributed to fm,CYP2C9. For the initial ruxolitinib model with co-administration of ketoconazole, the area under the curve (AUC) increase of 2.60-fold was over-estimated compared with the respective observation (1.91-fold). With the optimized fm values, the predicted AUC ratio was 1.82. The estimated AUC ratios of ruxolitinib by co-administration of the moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor erythromycin (500 mg) and the strong CYP3A4 inducer rifampicin (600 mg) were within a 20% error compared with the clinically observed values. The PBPK modeling results may provide information on the labeling, i.e. supporting a dose reduction by half for co-administration of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors. Furthermore, an AUC increase of ruxolitinib in the absence or presence of the dual CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 inhibitor fluconazole (100-400 mg) was prospectively estimated to be 1.94- to 4.31-fold. Fluconazole simulation results were used as a basis for ruxolitinib dose adjustment when co-administering perpetrator drugs. A ruxolitinib PBPK model with optimized fm,CYP3A4 and fm,CYP2C9 was established to evaluate victim DDI risks. The previous minimal PBPK model was supported by the FDA for the dose reduction strategy, halving the dose with the concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors and dual inhibitors on CYP2C9 and CYP3A4, such as fluconazole at ≤200 mg. Fluconazole simulation results were used as supportive evidence in discussions with the FDA and EMA about ruxolitinib dose adjustment when co-administering perpetrator drugs. Thus, this study demonstrated that PBPK modeling can support characterizing DDI liabilities to inform the drug label and might help reduce the number of clinical DDI studies by simulations of untested scenarios, when a robust PBPK model is established.

Abstract
Background and Objectives Cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) is involved in the biotransformation of many commonly used drugs, and significant drug interactions have been reported for CYP2C9 substrates. Previously published physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models of tolbutamide are based on an assumption that its metabolic clearance is exclusively through CYP2C9; however, many studies indicate that CYP2C9 metabolism is only responsible for 80–90% of the total clearance. Therefore, these models are not useful for predicting the magnitude of CYP2C9 drug–drug interactions (DDIs). This paper describes the development and verification of SimCYP®-based PBPK models that accurately describe the human pharmacokinetics of tolbutamide when dosed alone or in combination with the CYP2C9 inhibitors sulfaphenazole and tasisulam. Methods A PBPK model was optimized in SimCYP® for tolbutamide as a CYP2C9 substrate, based on published in vitro and clinical data. This model was verified to replicate the magnitude of DDI reported with sulfaphenazole and was further applied to simulate the DDI with tasisulam, a small molecule investigated for the treatment of cancer. A clinical study (CT registration # NCT01185548) was conducted in patients with cancer to assess the pharmacokinetic interaction of tasisulum with tolbutamide. A PBPK model was built for tasisulam, and the clinical study design was replicated using the optimized tolbutamide model. Results The optimized tolbutamide model accurately predicted the magnitude of tolbutamide AUC increase (5.3–6.2-fold) reported for sulfaphenazole. Furthermore, the PBPK simulations in a healthy volunteer population adequately predicted the increase in plasma exposure of tolbutamide in patients with cancer (predicted AUC ratio = 4.7–5.4; measured mean AUC ratio = 5.7). Conclusions This optimized tolbutamide PBPK model was verified with two strong CYP2C9 inhibitors and can be applied to the prediction of CYP2C9 interactions for novel inhibitors. Furthermore, this work highlights the utility of mechanistic models in navigating the challenges in conducting clinical pharmacology studies in cancer patients.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality, consuming a significant proportion of public health spending. Oral hypoglycemic agents (OHAs) are the frontline treatment approaches after lifestyle changes. However, huge interindividual variation in response to OHAs results in unnecessary treatment failure. In addition to nongenetic factors, genetic factors are thought to contribute to much of such variability, highlighting the importance of the potential of pharmacogenetics to improve therapeutic outcome. Despite the presence of conflicting results, significant progress has been made in an effort to identify the genetic markers associated with pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and ultimately therapeutic response and/or adverse outcomes to OHAs. As such, this article presents a comprehensive review of current knowledge on pharmacogenetics of OHAs and provides insights into knowledge gaps and future directions.

Abstract
Our previous study detected totally 35 CYP2C9 allelic variants in 2127 Chinese subjects, of whom 21 novel alleles were reported for the first time in Chinese populations. The aim of the present study was to characterize the 13 CYP2C9 allelic variants both in vitro and in vivo. Different types of CYP2C9 variants were highly expressed in COS-7 cells, and 50 μM tolbutamide was added as the probing substrate to evaluate their metabolic abilities in vitro. Subsequently, the concentrations of tolbutamide and its metabolite in the plasma and urine within individuals with different types of genotypes were determined by HPLC to evaluate the catalytic activity of the 13 mutant CYP2C9 proteins in vivo. Our results showed that compared with *1/*1 wild-type subjects, subjects with *1/*40 genotype showed increased oral clearance (CL/F), whereas individuals with *1/*3, *1/*13, *3/*3, *3/*13, *1/*16, *1/*19, *1/*34, *1/*42, *1/*45, *1/*46, and *1/*48 genotype exhibited significantly decreased CL/F, and those with *1/*27, *1/*29, *1/*40, and *1/*41 genotype presented similar CL/F value. When expressed in COS-7 cells, the CYP2C9 variants showed similar pattern to the results in clinical study. The study suggests that, besides two typical defective alleles, *3 and *13, seven CYP2C9 allelic variants (*16, *19, *34, *42, *45, *46, and *48) cause defective effects on the enzymatic activities both in vitro and in vivo. In clinic, patients with these defective alleles should be paid close attention to.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a common and serious disorder and is a significant risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease, neuropathy, nephropathy, retinopathy, periodontal disease, and foot ulcers and amputations. The burden of disease associated with T2D has led to an emphasis on early identification of the millions of individuals at high risk so that management and intervention strategies can be effectively implemented before disease progression begins. With increasing knowledge about the genetic basis of T2D, several genomic-based strategies have been tested for their ability to improve risk assessment, management and prevention. Genetic risk scores have been developed with the intent to more accurately identify those at risk for T2D and to potentially improve motivation and adherence to lifestyle modification programs. In addition, evidence is building that oral antihyperglycemic medications are subject to pharmacogenomic variation in a substantial number of patients, suggesting genomics may soon play a role in determining the most effective therapies. T2D is a complex disease that affects individuals differently, and risk prediction and treatment may be challenging for health care providers. Genomic approaches hold promise for their potential to improve risk prediction and tailor management for individual patients and to contribute to better health outcomes for those with T2D.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS The aim of this study was to investigate whether genetic variance can influence the efficacy of glibenclamide in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS A total of 747 patients with type 2 diabetes was enrolled from the Xiaoke Pills Clinical Trial, which is a double-blind, randomised controlled trial. All the patients had been treated with glibenclamide for 48 weeks, with strict drug dose adjustment and data collection. Treatment failure was confirmed when patients reached the criteria for terminating their participation in the study (fasting blood glucose level ≥ 7.0 mmol/l on two consecutive tests 4 weeks after reaching the pre-set maximal dose or maximal tolerated dose). Using this cohort, we tested 44 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 27 gene regions. The genes in our study were involved in the metabolism of sulfonylureas, islet beta cell function, insulin resistance and beta cell growth and differentiation. A logistic regression model was used to evaluate the relationship between genetic variants and treatment failure over a period of 48 weeks. RESULTS We found that no SNP reached the significance level of p < 0.00125 if Bonferroni correction was performed for multiple testing in the logistic regression model used in this pharmacogenetic study. Participants with the minor allele C of rs10811661 in CDKN2A/CDKN2B showed a significantly greater reduction in fasting blood glucose (TT vs TC vs CC: 9.3% (0-20.0%) vs 9.2% (0.9-20.5%) vs 12.7% (5.2-24.4%), p = 0.008) after the initial 4 weeks of treatment independent of age, sex and BMI. There was a significant difference in beta cell function among carriers of different genotypes of rs10811661. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Our study demonstrated that the CDKN2A/CDKN2B gene may be nominally associated with the efficacy of glibenclamide, and that CDKN2A/CDKN2B is associated with beta cell function.

Abstract
The efficacy, safety, and tolerability of drugs are dependent on numerous factors that influence their disposition. A dose that is efficacious and safe for one individual may result in sub-therapeutic or toxic blood concentrations in other individuals. A major source of this variability in drug response is drug metabolism, where differences in pre-systemic and systemic biotransformation efficiency result in variable degrees of systemic exposure (e.g., AUC, C max, and/or C min) following administration of a fixed dose.Interindividual differences in drug biotransformation have been studied extensively. It is well recognized that both intrinsic (such as genetics, age, sex, and disease states) and extrinsic (such as diet, chemical exposures from the environment, and even sunlight) factors play a significant role. For the family of cytochrome P450 enzymes, the most critical of the drug metabolizing enzymes, genetic variation can result in the complete absence or enhanced expression of a functional enzyme. In addition, up- and down-regulation of gene expression, in response to an altered cellular environment, can achieve the same range of metabolic function (phenotype), but often in a less reliably predictable and time-dependent manner. Understanding the mechanistic basis for drug disposition and response variability is essential if we are to move beyond the era of empirical, trial-and-error dose selection and into an age of personalized medicine that brings with it true improvements in health outcomes in the therapeutic treatment of disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE Static and dynamic (PBPK) prediction models were applied to estimate the drug-drug interaction (DDI) risk of AZD2066. The predictions were compared to the results of an in vivo cocktail study. Various in vivo measures for tolbutamide as a probe agent for cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) were also compared. METHODS In vitro inhibition data for AZD2066 were obtained using human liver microsomes and CYP-specific probe substrates. DDI prediction was performed using PBPK modelling with the SimCYP simulator™ or static model. The cocktail study was an open label, baseline, controlled interaction study with 15 healthy volunteers receiving multiple doses of AD2066 for 12 days. A cocktail of single doses of 100 mg caffeine (CYP1A2 probe), 500 mg tolbutamide (CYP2C9 probe), 20 mg omeprazole (CYP2C19 probe) and 7.5 mg midazolam (CYP3A probe) was simultaneously applied at baseline and during the administration of AZD2066. Bupropion as a CYP2B6 probe (150 mg) and 100 mg metoprolol (CYP2D6 probe) were administered on separate days. The pharmacokinetic parameters for the probe drugs and their metabolites in plasma and urinary recovery were determined. RESULTS In vitro AZD2066 inhibited CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP2D6. The static model predicted in vivo interaction with predicted AUC ratio values of >1.1 for all CYP (except CYP3A4). The PBPK simulations predicted no risk for clinical relevant interactions. The cocktail study showed no interaction for the CYP2B6 and CYP2C19 enzymes, a possible weak inhibition of CYP1A2, CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 activities and a slight inhibition (29 %) of CYP2D6 activity. The tolbutamide phenotyping metrics indicated that there were significant correlations between CLform and AUCTOL, CL, Aemet and LnTOL24h. The MRAe in urine showed no correlation to CLform. CONCLUSIONS DDI prediction using the static approach based on total concentration indicated that AZD20066 has a potential risk for inhibition. However, no DDI risk could be predicted when a more in vivo-like dynamic prediction method with the PBPK with SimCYP™ software based on early human PK data was used and more parameters (i.e. free fraction in plasma, no DDI risk) were taken into account. The clinical cocktail study showed no or low risks for clinical relevant DDI interactions. Our findings are in line with the hypothesis that the dynamic prediction method predicts DDI in vivo in humans better than the static model based on total plasma concentrations.

Abstract
Genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes are one of the factors that contribute to the pharmacokinetic (PK) variability of drugs. PK variability is observed in the bimodal distribution between extensive metabolizers (EMs) and poor metabolizers (PMs). PK variability may also exist between individuals genotyped as homozygous EMs and heterozygous EMs. This may carry implications for drug dosing and drug response (e.g., risk of therapeutic failure or drug toxicity). Studies have reported significant PK differences between homozygous and heterozygous EMs. Some literature suggests that this distinction may be of clinical relevance. Due to study design limitations and data that are either sparse or conflicting, generalizations regarding the potential impact of the CYP genotype, within EMs, are difficult. Optimally designed clinical trials are needed. This review evaluates the potential impact of CYP genetic polymorphisms on interindividual PK variability of drugs within an EM population.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to develop a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model of glimepiride and to investigate the influence of genetic polymorphisms in CYP2C9 on the PPK of glimepiride in healthy Korean subjects. METHODS Serum data after a single oral dose of 2 mg of glimepiride in 177 healthy male Korean subjects (CYP2C9*1*1: 163 subjects, *1/*3: 14 subjects) were used. We estimated the PPK of glimepiride using a nonlinear mixed effects modeling (NONMEM) method and explored the possible influence of genetic polymorphisms in CYP2C9 on the PPK of glimepiride. RESULTS The disposition of glimepiride was best described with a two-compartment model with a Weibull-type absorption and first-order elimination. The visual predictive check indicated that the pharmacokinetic profile of glimepiride was adequately described by the proposed PPK model. The CYP2C9 genotypes as covariate significantly (P < 0.001) influenced the apparent oral clearance (CL/F) of glimepiride. The estimated CL/F of glimepiride was higher (1.60-fold) in CYP2C9*1/*1 subjects than in CYP2C9*1/*3 subjects. CONCLUSIONS This study indicates that genetic polymorphisms of CYP2C9 influence the substantial interindividual variability in the disposition of glimepiride, and these polymorphisms may affect the clinical response to glimepiride therapy.

Abstract
AIMS Sulfonylureas are mainly metabolized by the enzyme CYP2C9. Two allelic variants, CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3, result in decreased metabolic capacity and have been associated with elevated sulfonylurea serum levels. However, most of the available data originates from pharmacokinetic analyses performed in healthy individuals. In this study, the effect of CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles on prescribed dose and time-to-stable dose of sulfonylureas was investigated. MATERIALS & METHODS A group of 207 incident sulfonylurea users treated in four university affiliated primary care centers were identified. The effect of the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles on prescribed dose and time-to-stable dose was then assessed. RESULTS No significant effects of the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles were found. However, a trend towards a lower stable glimepiride dose for carriers of the CYP2C9*3 allele was observed. CONCLUSION Genotyping for the CYP2C9*2 and CYP2C9*3 alleles currently appears to have no clinical implications for dosing of sulfonylureas in primary care patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE CYP2C9 is the major contributor to gliclazide metabolic clearance in vitro, while the pharmacokinetics of gliclazide modified release are affected mainly by CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms in vivo. This study aims to investigate the influence of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genetic polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of gliclazide in healthy Chinese Han volunteers. METHODS Eighteen healthy Han subjects with various combinations of CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 genotypes received 80 mg gliclazide. Plasma gliclazide concentrations were measured by a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for 84 h and plasma glucose and insulin levels were measured up to 15 h post-dose. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION There was no difference in either pharmacokinetic and or pharmacodynamic parameters of gliclazide when group A (CYP2C9*1/*1, CYP2C19 extensive metabolizers) was compared with group B (CYP2C9*1/*3, CYP2C19 *1/*1). When group C (CYP2C9*1/*1 and CYP2C19 poor metabolizers) was compared with group A, the AUC(0-∞) and C(max) in group C were significantly higher [83.94 ± 40.41 vs. 16.39 ± 5.10 μg·h/mL (P = 0.000) and 1.50 ± 0.85 vs. 0.45 ± 0.18 μg/mL (P = 0.000)], and the oral clearance was significantly lower [1.17 ± 0.63 vs. 5.38 ± 1.86 L/h (P = 0.000)]. The half-life of gliclazide was also significantly prolonged in group C subjects when compared with that of group A (33.47 ± 12.39 vs. 19.34 ± 10.45 h), but the difference was not significant (P = 0.052). The increase in serum glucose level at 11 h after dosing (ΔC(glu11)) in group C was significantly higher than that of group A (-1.08 ± 0.42 vs. 0.22 ± 1.01 mmol/L, P = 0.022). The corresponding insulin levels showed no difference between the two groups. CONCLUSION CYP2C9*3 was not associated with any change in the disposition of gliclazide. CYP2C19 polymorphisms appear to exert the dominant influence on the pharmacokinetics of gliclazide in healthy Chinese Han subjects, and may also affect the observed pharmacodynamics of the drug as a result.

Abstract
A variety of treatment modalities exist for individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). In addition to dietary and physical activity interventions, T2D is also treated pharmacologically with nine major classes of approved drugs. These medications include insulin and its analogues, sulfonylureas, biguanides, thiazolidinediones (TZDs), meglitinides, α-glucosidase inhibitors, amylin analogues, incretin hormone mimetics, and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors. Pharmacological treatment strategies for T2D are typically based on efficacy, yet favorable responses to such therapeutics are oftentimes variable and difficult to predict. Characterization of drug response is expected to substantially enhance our ability to provide patients with the most effective treatment strategy given their individual backgrounds, yet pharmacogenetic study of diabetes medications is still in its infancy. To date, major pharmacogenetic studies have focused on response to sulfonylureas, biguanides, and TZDs. Here, we provide a comprehensive review of pharmacogenetics investigations of these specific anti-diabetes medications. We focus not only on the results of these studies, but also on how experimental design, study sample issues, and definition of 'response' can significantly impact our interpretation of findings. Understanding the pharmacogenetics of anti-diabetes medications will provide critical baseline information for the development and implementation of genetic screening into therapeutic decision making, and lay the foundation for "individualized medicine" for patients with T2D.

Abstract
Pharmacogenetics is the study of how interindividual variations in the DNA sequence of specific genes affect drug response. This article highlights current pharmacogenetic knowledge on important human drug-metabolizing cytochrome P450s (CYPs) to understand the large interindividual variability in drug clearance and responses in clinical practice. The human CYP superfamily contains 57 functional genes and 58 pseudogenes, with members of the 1, 2, and 3 families playing an important role in the metabolism of therapeutic drugs, other xenobiotics, and some endogenous compounds. Polymorphisms in the CYP family may have had the most impact on the fate of therapeutic drugs. CYP2D6, 2C19, and 2C9 polymorphisms account for the most frequent variations in phase I metabolism of drugs, since almost 80% of drugs in use today are metabolized by these enzymes. Approximately 5-14% of Caucasians, 0-5% Africans, and 0-1% of Asians lack CYP2D6 activity, and these individuals are known as poor metabolizers. CYP2C9 is another clinically significant enzyme that demonstrates multiple genetic variants with a potentially functional impact on the efficacy and adverse effects of drugs that are mainly eliminated by this enzyme. Studies into the CYP2C9 polymorphism have highlighted the importance of the CYP2C9*2 and *3 alleles. Extensive polymorphism also occurs in other CYP genes, such as CYP1A1, 2A6, 2A13, 2C8, 3A4, and 3A5. Since several of these CYPs (e.g., CYP1A1 and 1A2) play a role in the bioactivation of many procarcinogens, polymorphisms of these enzymes may contribute to the variable susceptibility to carcinogenesis. The distribution of the common variant alleles of CYP genes varies among different ethnic populations. Pharmacogenetics has the potential to achieve optimal quality use of medicines, and to improve the efficacy and safety of both prospective and currently available drugs. Further studies are warranted to explore the gene-dose, gene-concentration, and gene-response relationships for these important drug-metabolizing CYPs.

Abstract
Human cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) accounts for ∼20% of hepatic total CYP content and metabolizes ~15% clinical drugs such as phenytoin, S-warfarin, tolbutamide, losartan, and many nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents (NSAIDs). CYP2C9 is highly polymorphic, with at least 33 variants of CYP2C9 (*1B through *34) being identified so far. CYP2C9*2 is frequent among Caucasians with ~1% of the population being homozygous carriers and 22% are heterozygous. The corresponding figures for the CYP2C9*3 allele are 0.4% and 15%, respectively. There are a number of clinical studies addressing the impact of CYP2C9 polymorphisms on the clearance and/or therapeutic response of therapeutic drugs. These studies have highlighted the importance of the CYP2C9*2 and *3 alleles as a determining factor for drug clearance and drug response. The CYP2C9 polymorphisms are relevant for the efficacy and adverse effects of numerous NSAIDs, sulfonylurea antidiabetic drugs and, most critically, oral anticoagulants belonging to the class of vitamin K epoxide reductase inhibitors. Warfarin has served as a practical example of how pharmacogenetics can be utilized to achieve maximum efficacy and minimum toxicity. For many of these drugs, a clear gene-dose and gene-effect relationship has been observed in patients. In this regard, CYP2C9 alleles can be considered as a useful biomarker in monitoring drug response and adverse effects. Genetic testing of CYP2C9 is expected to play a role in predicting drug clearance and conducting individualized pharmacotherapy. However, prospective clinical studies with large samples are warranted to establish gene-dose and gene-effect relationships for CYP2C9 and its substrate drugs.

Abstract
1. The potential of zafirlukast to inhibit several human cytochrome P450 enzymes is well known. However, pranlukast, a structural analogue of zafirlukast, has not been studied. Accordingly, the inhibitory potential of pranlukast was evaluated and compared with that of zafirlukast, a known CYP2C9 inhibitor, in in vitro microsomal incubation studies. 2. Both pranlukast and zafirlukast showed moderate inhibition of CYP2C9-catalysed tolbutamide 4-methylhydroxylation, competitively inhibiting tolbutamide 4-methylhydroxylation with estimated mean K(i) values of 3.82 +/- 0.50 and 5.86 +/- 0.08 microM, respectively. 3. Pranlukast had no effect on CYP2C19-catalysed S-mephenytoin 4'-hydroxylation or CYP3A4-catalysed midazolam 1-hydroxylation. However, zafirlukast showed minor inhibition of these reactions. Neither pranlukast nor zafirlukast inhibited CYP1A2-catalysed phenacetin O-deethylation, CYP2D6-catalysed dextromethorphan O-demethylation or CYP2E1-catalysed chlorzoxazone 6-hydroxylation. 4. The results suggest that like zafirlukast, pranlukast also has the potential moderately to inhibit CYP2C9-catalysed tolbutamide 4-methylhydroxylation. Therefore, the inhibitory potential of pranlukast should be considered when it is co-administered with CYP2C9 substrates with narrow therapeutic ranges (e.g. S-warfarin, phenytoin).

Abstract
We evaluated the effect of the CYP2C19 genotype on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamcis of clopidogrel. Twenty-four subjects were divided into three groups on the basis of their CYP2C19 genotype: homozygous extensive metabolizers (homoEMs, n = 8), heterozygous EMs (heteroEMs, n = 8), and poor metabolizers (PMs, n = 8). After a single 300-mg loading dose of clopidogrel on day 1, followed by a 75-mg daily maintenance dose from days 2 to 7, we measured the plasma levels of clopidogrel and assessed the antiplatelet effect as pharmacodynamics. The mean clopidogrel area under the curve (AUC) for PMs was 1.8- and 2.9-fold higher than that for heteroEMs and homoEMs, respectively (P = 0.013). The mean peak plasma concentration in PMs was 1.8- and 4.7-fold higher than that of heteroEMs and homoEMs, respectively (P = 0.008). PMs exhibited a significantly lower antiplatelet effect than heteroEMs or homoEMs (P < 0.001). From these findings it is clear that the CYP2C19 genotype affects the plasma levels of clopidogrel and modulates the antiplatelet effect of clopidogrel.

Abstract
Intensive blood glucose lowering can significantly reduce the risk of micro- and macrovascular complications in patients with diabetes mellitus. However, 30% of all treated patients do not achieve optimal blood glucose levels. Genetic factors may influence the response to glucose-lowering medication. A search of MEDLINE-indexed literature published between January 1966 and July 2007 revealed 37 studies reporting data on genetic polymorphisms and response to glucose-lowering drugs. Most studies involving cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes had small sample sizes (21 studies <50 subjects) and were among healthy volunteers. Multiple studies indicated that the CYP2C9 *3 allele (Ile359Leu polymorphism) was associated with decreased clearance of sulfonylurea drugs. Supporting this, one study reported an increased insulin secretion in CYP2C9*3 allele carriers when using the sulfonylurea agent glyburide. The CYP2C9*3 allele was also associated with a decreased clearance of meglitinides, whereas the CYP2C8*3 (Arg139Lys; Lys399Arg) variant increased the clearance of meglitinides. Polymorphisms in genes encoding the inwardly rectifying potassium channel Kir6.2 (KCNJ11) and the insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS1) were reported to be associated with an increased risk of (secondary) failure to respond to sulfonylurea therapy. A significant decrease in fasting plasma glucose and hemoglobin A(1c) (HbA(1c)) in response to rosiglitazone was seen in subjects carrying the Pro12Ala polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARG) gene. Conversely, carriers of this polymorphism also had a higher conversion to diabetes mellitus when treated with acarbose; this effect was also seen in adiponectin (ADIPOQ) gene polymorphism carriers. Future studies with adequate sample sizes in which several SNPs in multiple candidate genes are genotyped in patients with diabetes should provide reliable information on genetic variants and response to glucose-lowering drugs.

Abstract
Sulfonylurea hypoglycemics are mainly metabolized by the cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) enzyme. The CYP2C9*2 and *3 polymorphisms encode proteins with less enzymatic activity and are correlated with elevated serum levels of sulfonylurea, as demonstrated in healthy volunteers. In this study, the effect of these variants is described for patients with diabetes mellitus treated with sulfonylurea. Associations between CYP2C9 polymorphisms, prescribed doses of sulfonylurea, and change in glucose levels after the start of sulfonylurea therapy were assessed in all patients with incident diabetes mellitus starting on sulfonylurea therapy in the Rotterdam Study, a population-based cohort study of 7,983 elderly people. In CYP2C9*3 allele carriers using tolbutamide, the prescribed dose was lower compared to patients with the wild-type CYP2C9 genotype. No differences in the prescribed dose were found in tolbutamide users with the CYP2C9*1/*2 or CYP2C9*2/*2 genotype compared to wild-type patients or in patients using other sulfonylurea. In CYP2C9*3 allele carriers, the mean decrease in fasting serum glucose levels after the start of tolbutamide therapy was larger than in patients with the wild-type genotype, although not statistically significant. Patients with diabetes mellitus who are carriers of a CYP2C9*3 allele require lower doses of tolbutamide to regulate their serum glucose levels compared to patients with the wild-type genotype.

Abstract
AIMS To identify the human cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes responsible for the formation of the 6beta-hydroxy (6beta-OHGz), 7beta-hydroxy (7beta-OHGz) and hydroxymethyl (MeOH-Gz) metabolites of gliclizide (Gz). METHODS 6beta-OHGz, 7beta-OHGz and MeOH-Gz formation by human liver microsomes and a panel of recombinant human P450s was measured using a high-performance liquid chromatography procedure, and the kinetics of metabolite formation was determined for each pathway. Effects of prototypic CYP enzyme selective inhibitors were characterized for each of the microsomal metabolic pathways. RESULTS Microsomes from six human livers converted Gz to its 6beta-OHGz, 7beta-OHGz, and MeOH-Gz metabolites, with respective mean (+/- SD) K(m) values of 461 +/- 139, 404 +/- 143 and 334 +/- 75 microm and mean V(max) values of 130 +/- 55, 82 +/- 31 and 268 +/- 115 pmol min(-1) mg(-1), respectively. V(max)/K(m) ratios for the microsomal reactions parallelled relative metabolite formation in vivo. Sulfaphenazole inhibited microsomal 6beta-OHGz, 7beta-OHGz and MeOH-Gz formation by 87, 83 and 64%, respectively, whereas S-mephenytoin caused significant inhibition (48%) of only MeOH-Gz formation. Recombinant CYP2C9, CYP2C18 and CYP2C19 catalysed all hydroxylation pathways, whereas CYP2C8 formed only 6beta-OHGz and 7beta-OHGz. CONCLUSION Taken together, the results indicate that CYP2C9 is the major contributor to Gz metabolic clearance, although CYP2C19 may also be involved in MeOH-Gz formation (the major metabolic pathway). Factors known to influence CYP2C9 activity will provide the main source of variability in Gz pharmacokinetics.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the major mutations in genes CYP2C8 and CYP2C9, their frequency in populations of diverse ethnical descent, their analysis methods, and the major drugs with affected metabolism, with a special emphasis on NSAIDs. METHOD Repeated searches of Pubmed (January 1966-January 2006) and Scholar Google were performed. All searches were restricted to studies in humans, and papers not written in Spanish or English were excluded. RESULTS Ten allelic variants of CYP2C8 and 24 of CYP2C have been reported. Not all of them exert a relevant effect on drug metabolism. In Caucasians 22% of CYP2C8 genes and 31% of CYP2C9 genes have mutations. In Asians fewer than 1% and nearly 3% are mutated, respectively. Major identification methods include endonuclease digestion, PCR, pyrosequencing, and microarrays. Not all NSAIDs are exclusive substrates for CYP2C8/9. The usefulness of allelic variant analysis varies with each individual drug. The risk for digestive hemorrhage associated with the CYP2C9 genotype is particularly relevant when using aceclofenac, celecoxib, diclofenac, ibuprofen, indomethacin, lornoxicam, piroxicam, or naproxen. CONCLUSIONS Although CYP2C8/9 activity plays an essential role in the metabolism of and clinical response to many NSAIDs, the use of pharmacogenomic techniques is not equally useful for all these drugs.

Abstract
The application of pharmacogenetics holds great promise for individualized therapy. However, it has little clinical reality at present, despite many claims. The main problem is that the evidence base supporting genetic testing before therapy is weak. The pharmacology of the drugs subject to inherited variability in metabolism is often complex. Few have simple or single pathways of elimination. Some have active metabolites or enantiomers with different activities and pathways of elimination. Drug dosing is likely to be influenced only if the aggregate molar activity of all active moieties at the site of action is predictably affected by genotype or phenotype. Variation in drug concentration must be significant enough to provide "signal" over and above normal variation, and there must be a genuine concentration-effect relationship. The therapeutic index of the drug will also influence test utility. After considering all of these factors, the benefits of prospective testing need to be weighed against the costs and against other endpoints of effect. It is not surprising that few drugs satisfy these requirements. Drugs (and enzymes) for which there is a reasonable evidence base supporting genotyping or phenotyping include suxamethonium/mivacurium (butyrylcholinesterase), and azathioprine/6-mercaptopurine (thiopurine methyltransferase). Drugs for which there is a potential case for prospective testing include warfarin (CYP2C9), perhexiline (CYP2D6), and perhaps the proton pump inhibitors (CYP2C19). No other drugs have an evidence base that is sufficient to justify prospective testing at present, although some warrant further evaluation. In this review we summarize the current evidence base for pharmacogenetics in relation to drug-metabolizing enzymes.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus affects up to 8% of the adult population in Western countries. Treatment of this disease with oral antidiabetic drugs is characterised by considerable interindividual variability in pharmacokinetics, clinical efficacy and adverse effects. Genetic factors are known to contribute to individual differences in bioavailability, drug transport, metabolism and drug action. Only scarce data exist on the clinical implications of this genetic variability on adverse drug effects or clinical outcomes in patients taking oral antidiabetics. The polymorphic enzyme cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 is the main enzyme catalysing the biotransformation of sulphonylureas. Total oral clearance of all studied sulphonylureas (tolbutamide, glibenclamide [glyburide], glimepiride, glipizide) was only about 20% in persons with the CYP2C9*3/*3 genotype compared with carriers of the wild-type genotype CYP2C9*1/*1, and clearance in the heterozygous carriers was between 50% and 80% of that of the wild-type genotypes. For reasons not completely known, the resulting differences in drug effects were much less pronounced. Nevertheless, CYP2C9 genotype-based dose adjustments may reduce the incidence of adverse effects. The magnitude of how doses might be adjusted can be derived from pharmacokinetic studies. The meglitinide-class drug nateglinide is metabolised by CYP2C9. According to the pharmacokinetic data, moderate dose adjustments based on CYP2C9 genotypes may help in reducing interindividual variability in the antihyperglycaemic effects of nateglinide. Repaglinide is metabolised by CYP2C8 and, according to clinical studies, CYP2C8*3 carriers had higher clearance than carriers of the wild-type genotypes; however, this was not consistent with in vitro data and therefore further studies are needed. CYP2C8*3 is closely linked with CYP2C9*2. CYP2C8 and CYP3A4 are the main enzymes catalysing biotransformation of the thiazolidinediones troglitazone and pioglitazone, whereas rosiglitazone is metabolised by CYP2C9 and CYP2C8. The biguanide metformin is not significantly metabolised but polymorphisms in the organic cation transporter (OCT) 1 and OCT2 may determine its pharmacokinetic variability. In conclusion, pharmacogenetic variability plays an important role in the pharmacokinetics of oral antidiabetic drugs; however, to date, the impact of this variability on clinical outcomes in patients is mostly unknown and prospective studies on the medical benefit of CYP genotyping are required.

Abstract
Because management of type 2 diabetes mellitus usually involves combined pharmacological therapy to obtain adequate glucose control and treatment of concurrent pathologies (especially dyslipidaemia and arterial hypertension), drug-drug interactions must be carefully considered with antihyperglycaemic drugs. Additive glucose-lowering effects have been extensively reported when combining sulphonylureas (or the new insulin secretagogues, meglitinide derivatives, i.e. nateglinide and repaglinide) with metformin, sulphonylureas (or meglitinide derivatives) with thiazolidinediones (also called glitazones) and the biguanide compound metformin with thiazolidinediones. Interest in combining alpha-glucosidase inhibitors with either sulphonylureas (or meglitinide derivatives), metformin or thiazolidinediones has also been demonstrated. These combinations result in lower glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA(1c)), fasting glucose and postprandial glucose levels than with either monotherapy. Even if modest pharmacokinetic interferences have been reported with some combinations, they do not appear to have important clinical consequences. No significant adverse effects, except a higher risk of hypoglycaemic episodes that may be attributed to better glycaemic control, occur with any combination. Challenging the classical dual therapy with sulphonylurea plus metformin, there is a recent trend to use alternative dual combinations (sulphonylurea plus thiazolidinedione or metformin plus thiazolidinedione). In addition, triple therapy with the addition of a thiazolidinedione to the metformin-sulphonylurea combination has been recently evaluated and allows glucose targets to be reached before insulin therapy is considered. This triple therapy appears to be safe, with no deleterious drug-drug interactions being reported so far.Potential interferences may also occur between glucose-lowering agents and other drugs, and such drug-drug interactions may have important clinical implications. Relevant pharmacological agents are those that are widely coadministered in diabetic patients (e.g. lipid-lowering agents, antihypertensive agents); those that have a narrow efficacy/toxicity ratio (e.g. digoxin, warfarin); or those that are known to induce (rifampicin [rifampin]) or inhibit (fluconazole) the cytochrome P450 (CYP) system. Metformin is currently a key compound in the pharmacological management of type 2 diabetes, used either alone or in combination with other antihyperglycaemics. There are no clinically relevant metabolic interactions with metformin, because this compound is not metabolised and does not inhibit the metabolism of other drugs. In contrast, sulphonylureas, meglitinide derivatives and thiazolidinediones are extensively metabolised in the liver via the CYP system and thus, may be subject to drug-drug metabolic interactions. Many HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) are also metabolised via the CYP system. Even if modest pharmacokinetic interactions may occur, it is not clear whether drug-drug interactions between oral antihyperglycaemic agents and statins may have clinical consequences regarding both efficacy and safety. In contrast, a marked pharmacokinetic interference has been reported between gemfibrozil and repaglinide and, to a lesser extent, between gemfibrozil and rosiglitazone. This leads to a drastic increase in plasma concentrations of each antihyperglycaemic agent when they are coadministered with the fibric acid derivative, and an increased risk of adverse effects. Some antihypertensive agents may favour hypoglycaemic episodes when co-prescribed with sulphonylureas or meglitinide derivatives, especially ACE inhibitors, but this effect seems to result from a pharmacodynamic drug-drug interaction rather than from a pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction. No, or only modest, interferences have been described with glucose-lowering agents and other pharmacological compounds such as digoxin or warfarin. The effects of inducers or inhibitors of CYP isoenzymes on the metabolism and pharmacokinetics of the glucose-lowering agents of each pharmacological class has been tested. Significantly increased (with CYP inhibitors) or decreased (with CYP inducers) plasma levels of sulphonylureas, meglitinide derivatives and thiazolidinediones have been reported in healthy volunteers, and these pharmacokinetic changes may lead to enhanced or reduced glucose-lowering action, and thus hypoglycaemia or worsening of metabolic control, respectively. In addition, some case reports have evidenced potential drug-drug interactions with various antihyperglycaemic agents that are usually associated with a higher risk of hypoglycaemia.

Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2006; 72:148-54. [PMID: 16325295 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2005.09.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 62] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2004] [Revised: 06/15/2005] [Accepted: 09/20/2005] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Glimepiride, a sulfonylurea hypoglycemic agent, is metabolized by cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) which is known to have genetic polymorphisms. To examine the effects of CYP2C9 genetic polymorphisms on the safety and efficacy of glimepiride in patients with type 2 diabetes, the responses to the glimepiride were measured in Japanese type 2 diabetic patients with the different CYP2C9 genotype. The reduction in the HbA(1c) was significantly larger (P<0.05) among the CYP2C9*1/*3 subjects than among the CYP2C9*1/*1 subjects. The long-term observations of 2 patients with a CYP2C9*1/*3 suggested that subjects with a CYP2C9*1/*3 respond well to glimepiride during the initial phase of treatment, but 1 patient have shown the weight gain over the long-term treatment. The pharmacokinetic study showed that the area under the concentration-time curve for glimepiride in the CYP2C9*1/*3 subjects was approximately 2.5-fold higher than that of the CYP2C9*1/*1 subjects. The intrinsic clearance of glimepiride by the CYP2C9*3 enzyme was lower than that by the CYP2C9*1 enzyme. These results suggested that the lower hydroxylation activity of glimepiride in the subject with type 2 diabetes and CYP2C9*1/*3 led to a marked elevation in the plasma concentrations of glimepiride and a stronger pharmacological effect of glimepiride.

Abstract
There are a great number of polymorphic genes in the human genome. Many of them codify enzymes that metabolizes drugs and xenobiotic agents, including carcinogens. Among the better known of them, there are a number of isozymes of the microsomal oxidative system (CYP3A4, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 y CYP2D6). This article reviews the following issues: a) frequency of presentation of the "poor metabolizer" genotype and/or phenotype for substrates of CYP2C19; b) role of CYP2C19 polymorphism on the metabolism of some drugs (mephenytoine and other antiepileptic drugs, proton pump inhibitors, several antidepressants and anxyolitics, the antimalaria aggent proguanyl, and propranolol, among others, use this metabolic pathway), and c) possible role of CYP2C19 polymorphism in the risk for development of neoplasia and other diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, hip osteonecrosis, Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, essential tremor).

Abstract
BACKGROUND CYP2C9 is one of the major drug metabolizing enzymes for many drugs including warfarin, NSAIDs and losartan. It is polymorphic in many populations. Data on the distribution of CYP2C9 and the implication of CYP2C9 polymorphism in the Malaysian population is lacking. Our objectives were therefore to investigate the prevalence of CYP2C9 variants among unrelated healthy volunteers of Malays, Chinese and Indians in Malaysia. METHOD Deoxyribonucleic acid was extracted using standard lysis methods. Allele specific polymerase chain reaction was performed for determination of CYP2C9*1, *2, *3, *4 and *5 variants according to Z. Zainuddin, L.K. Teh, A.W.M. Suhaimi, M.Z. Salleh, R. Ismail (2003, Clinica Chimica Acta, 336, 97). RESULT The Chinese had the highest frequency of CYP2C9*1 (321/330, 97.27%), followed by the Malays and the Indians (402 of 420, 95.71% and 291 of 330, 88.18%, respectively). CYP2C9*2 was not found in the Chinese. CYP2C9*3 were detected in all the three races with the Indians having the highest frequency of CYP2C9*3 (9.7%). The Indians had a frequency of CYP2C9*2 and *3 similar to Tamilians and Caucasians. Two of the Indians had *2/*3 and one had *3/*3 genotypes and are likely to be slow metabolizers. No subject with CYP2C9*4 and *5 were detected in our populations. CONCLUSION CYP2C9*2 and *3 were identified in our population. Indians are similar to Caucasians in terms of CYP2C9 genotypes and thus may respond to CYP2C9 substrates differently when compared with the Malays and Chinese in Malaysia.

Abstract
AIMS We evaluated the involvement of cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms 2C9 and 2C19 in chlorpropamide 2-hydroxylation in vitro and in chlorpropamide disposition in vivo. METHODS To identify CYP isoforms(s) that catalyse 2-hydroxylation of chlorpropamide, the incubation studies were conducted using human liver microsomes and recombinant CYP isoforms. To evaluate whether genetic polymorphisms of CYP2C9 and/or CYP2C19 influence the disposition of chlorpropamide, a single oral dose of 250 mg chlorpropamide was administered to 21 healthy subjects pregenotyped for CYP2C9 and CYP2C19. RESULTS In human liver microsomal incubation studies, the formation of 2-hydroxychlorpropamide (2-OH-chlorpropamide), a major chlorpropamide metabolite in human, has been best described by a one-enzyme model with estimated K(m) and V(max) of 121.7 +/- 19.9 microm and 16.1 +/- 5.0 pmol min(-1) mg(-1) protein, respectively. In incubation studies using human recombinant CYP isoforms, however, 2-OH-chlorpropamide was formed by both CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 with similar intrinsic clearances (CYP2C9 vs. CYP2C19: 0.26 vs. 0.22 microl min(-1) nmol(-1) protein). Formation of 2-OH-chlorpropamide in human liver microsomes was significantly inhibited by sulfaphenazole, but not by S-mephenytoin, ketoconazole, quinidine, or furafylline. In in vivo clinical trials, eight subjects with the CYP2C9*1/*3 genotype exhibited significantly lower nonrenal clearance [*1/*3 vs.*1/*1: 1.8 +/- 0.2 vs. 2.4 +/- 0.1 ml h(-1) kg(-1), P < 0.05; 95% confidence interval (CI) on the difference 0.2, 1.0] and higher metabolic ratios (of chlorpropamide/2-OH-chlorpropamide in urine: *1/*3 vs.*1/*1: 1.01 +/- 0.19 vs. 0.56 +/- 0.08, P < 0.05; 95% CI on the difference - 0.9, - 0.1) than did 13 subjects with CYP2C9*1/*1 genotype. In contrast, no differences in chlorpropamide pharmacokinetics were observed for subjects with the CYP2C19 extensive metabolizer vs. poor metabolizer genotypes. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that chlorpropamide disposition is principally determined by CYP2C9 activity in vivo, although both CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 have a catalysing activity of chlorpropamide 2-hydroxylation pathway.

Abstract
AIM To study the relationship between P450 2C9 genetic polymorphisms and the pharmacokinetics of tolbutamide in Chinese subjects. METHODS P450 2C9 genotype was determined by oligonucleotide microarray. Using tolbutamide as a probe of P450 2C9 activity, P450 2C9 phenotype in 20 healthy individuals expressing the P450 2C9*1/*1, *1/*3 and *3/*3 genotypes were evaluated. After administration of 500 mg tolbutamide, plasma and urine samples were collected from each subject over a 24-h period. The tolbutamide and its metabolites' concentrations in human plasma and urine were determined by solid-phase extraction and HPLC. RESULTS Tolbutamide AUC0-->infinity increased by 20 and 116%, and T(1/2) increased by 60 and 813%, respectively, in subjects expressing the P4502C9*1/*3 and *3/*3 genotypes compared with *1/*1 subjects. Reductions in tolbutamide oral clearance (68 and 11%) and formation clearance (39 and 3%) were detected in the *1/*3 and *3/*3 individuals, respectively, compared with */*1 subjects. CONCLUSION The P450 2C9 activity was significantly reduced in *1 heterozygotes compared with *1 homozygotes, and the metabolism of tolbutamide was more severely impaired in *3/*3 individuals compared with those expressing *1/*3. Using tolbutamide as a P450 2C9 probe, P450 2C9 genotype was the major determinant of P450 2C9 phenotype.

Abstract
Sulfadiazine hydroxylamine has been postulated to be the mediator of the greatly increased rates of adverse reactions to sulfadiazine experienced by people with human immunodeficiency virus infection. Therefore, we investigated the in vitro human cytochrome P450 (P450) and N-arylamine acetyltransferase (detoxification) metabolism of sulfadiazine. Formation of both the hydroxylamine and 4-hydroxy sulfadiazine was NADPH-dependent in human liver microsomes (HLM). The average K(m) (+/-S.D.) and V(max) in HLM (n = 3) for hydroxylamine formation was 5.7 +/- 2.2 mM and 185 +/- 142 pmol/min/mg, respectively. Significant (p < 0.05) inhibition by selective P450 isoform inhibitor sulfaphenazole (2.1 microM; CYP2C9) indicated a role for CYP2C9 in the formation of the hydroxylamine. Hydroxylamine formation correlated strongly with tolbutamide 4-hydroxylation (CYP2C8/9) in HLM (r = 0.76, p < or = 0.004, n = 12). Fluconazole (CYP2C9/19 and CYP3A4 inhibitor at clinical concentrations) inhibited hydroxylamine formation, with one-enzyme model K(i) estimates ranging from 9 to 40 microM. Acetylation of sulfadiazine in human liver cytosol (HLC) correlated strongly with NAT2 activity as measured by sulfamethazine N-acetylation (r = 0.92, p < 0.001, n = 12). The average K(m) (+/-S.D.) and V(max) in HLC (n = 3) was 3.1 +/- 1.7 mM and 221.8 +/- 132.3 pmol/min/mg, respectively. The polymorphic acetylation of sulfadiazine may predispose slow acetylator patients to adverse reactions to sulfadiazine. On the basis of our K(i) estimates, clinical fluconazole concentrations of 25 microM would produce decreases of 40 to 70% in hepatic-mediated hydroxylamine production. Therefore, we predict that fluconazole may prove useful in the clinic as an in vivo inhibitor of sulfadiazine hydroxylamine formation to suppress adverse reactions to this drug.

Abstract
Interethnic variability in pharmacokinetics can cause unexpected outcomes such as therapeutic failure, adverse effects, and toxicity in subjects of different ethnic origin undergoing medical treatment. It is important to realize that both genetic and environmental factors can lead to these differences among ethnic groups. The International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) published a guidance to facilitate the registration of drugs among ICH regions (European Union, Japan, the United States) by recommending a framework for evaluating the impact of ethnic factors on a drug's effect, as well as its efficacy and safety at a particular dosage and dosage regimen. This review focuses on the pharmacokinetic differences between East Asians and Caucasians. Differences in metabolism between East Asians and Caucasians are common, especially in the activity of several phase I enzymes such as CYP2D6 and the CYP2C subfamily. Before drug therapy, identification of either the genotype and/or the phenotype for these enzymes may be of therapeutic value, particularly for drugs with a narrow therapeutic index. Furthermore, these differences are relevant for international drug approval when regulatory agencies must decide if they accept results from clinical trials performed in other parts of the world.

Abstract
AIMS To assess the feasibility of administering at the same time low doses of five probe drugs, metoprolol (25 mg), chlorzoxazone (250 mg), tolbutamide (250 mg), dapsone (100 mg) and caffeine (100 mg) to determine simultaneously the activities of CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP2C9, CYP3A4, CYP1A2, N-acetyltransferase-2 and xanthine oxidase. METHODS Ten healthy young non-smoking males received the following drugs or combinations of drugs over a 5-week period: week 1) metoprolol; 2) tolbutamide; 3) caffeine, chlorzoxazone and dapsone; 4) caffeine, chlorzoxazone, dapsone and metoprolol; 5) caffeine, chlorzoxazone, dapsone, metoprolol and tolbutamide. The drugs were self-administered at bedtime and urine was collected for the following 8 h. RESULTS Mean molar phenotypic ratios obtained after administering metoprolol (mean change of -11%) or tolbutamide (mean change of -0.3%) alone, were not significantly different from those obtained when other drugs were co-administered (P > 0.05). The mean within-subject coefficients of variation were 33%, 18%, 22%, 13%, 16%, 13% and 5% for CYP3A4, CYP2D6, CYP2C9, CYP2E1, CYP1A2, N-acetyltransferase 2 and xanthine oxidase metabolic ratios, respectively. No significant interactions (P > 0.5) were observed during the simultaneous administration of various combinations of the five probe drugs. CONCLUSIONS We propose that this cocktail, composed of five widely available drugs, constitutes a promising means of simultaneously determining the activities of the major CYP enzymes in large populations.

Abstract
CYP2C9 is the major human enzyme of the cytochrome P450 2C subfamily and metabolizes approximately 10% of all therapeutically relevant drugs. Two inherited SNPs termed CYP2C9*2 (Arg144Cys) and *3 (Ile359Leu) are known to affect catalytic function. Numerous rare or functionally silent polymorphisms have been identified. About 35% of the Caucasian population carries at least one *2 or *3 allele. CYP2C9 metabolizes several oral hypoglycemics, oral anticoagulants, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and other drugs, including phenytoin, losartan, fluvastatin, and torsemide. In vitro studies with several drugs indicate that the Cys144 (.2) and Leu359 (.3) variants confer only about 70 and 10% of the intrinsic clearance of the wild-type protein (.1), respectively. The clinical pharmacokinetic implications of these polymorphisms vary depending on the enzymes contribution to total oral clearance. Several studies demonstrated that the CYP2C9 polymorphisms are medically important for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, for oral hypoglycemics, vitamin K antagonistic oral anticoagulants, and phenytoin. In particular, CYP2C9 polymorphisms should be routinely considered in therapy with oral anticoagulants where severe adverse events at initiation of therapy might be reduced by genotyping. CYP2C9 polymorphisms were also clinically associated with side effects of phenytoin, with gastric bleeding during therapy with non-steroidals and with hypoglycemia under oral hypoglycemic drugs. Data appear mature enough for the routine consideration of CYP2C9 genotypes in therapy with acenocoumarol, phenytoin, warfarin, and some other drugs. Nevertheless, it is advisable before the routine clinical use of these genotype data to rigorously test the benefits of genotype-based therapeutic recommendations by randomized controlled clinical trials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 metabolizes about 16% of drugs in current clinical use, including lornoxicam and tolbutamide. SNPs in the CYP2C9 gene have increasingly been recognized as determinants of the metabolic phenotype that underlies interindividual and ethnic differences. METHODS The present study focused on a Chinese poor metabolizer (PM) whose apparent genotype (CYP2C9*1/CYP2C9*3) did not agree with his PM phenotype for both lornoxicam and tolbutamide. By sequencing his CYP2C9 gene, we identified a new variant CYP2C9 allele involving a T269C transversion in exon 2 that leads to a Leu90Pro substitution in the encoded protein. RESULTS The CYP2C9 genotype analysis in the family of the poor metabolizer showed the new exon 2 change and CYP2C9*3 occurred on different alleles. Thus, the PM status of this subject could be attributed to his being heterozygous for the CYP2C9 T269C allele together with the CYP2C9*3. Frequency analysis in 147 unrelated Chinese males indicated approximately 2% of the Chinese population carry the allele. CONCLUSION This study suggests that this novel CYP2C9 allele was correlated with reduced plasma clearance of drugs that are substrates for CYP2C9.
