Ezuruike U, Curry L, Hatley O, Gardner I. Exploring the impact of ethnicity on drug pharmacokinetics using PBPK models: A case study with lansoprazole in Japanese subjects. Br J Clin Pharmacol 2023. [PMID: 38072775 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.15982] [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: 06/05/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 01/17/2024] Open
Abstract
AIMS The aim of this study is to demonstrate the use of PBPK modelling to explore the impact of ethnic differences on drug PK. METHODS A PBPK model developed for lansoprazole was used to predict the clinical PK of lansoprazole in Japanese subjects by incorporating the physiological parameters of a Japanese population into the model. Further verification of the developed Japanese population with clinical studies involving eight other CYP substrates-omeprazole, ticlopidine, alprazolam, midazolam, nifedipine, cinacalcet, paroxetine and dextromethorphan-was also carried out. RESULTS The PK of lansoprazole in both Caucasian and Japanese subjects was well predicted by the model as the observed data were within the 5th and 95th percentiles across all the clinical studies. In age- and sex-matched simulations in both the Caucasian and Japanese populations, the predicted PK (mean ± SD) of a single oral dose of 30-mg lansoprazole was higher in the Japanese population in all cases, with more than twofold higher AUC of 5.98 ± 6.43 mg/L.h (95% CI: 4.72, 7.24) vs. 2.46 ± 2.45 mg/L.h (95% CI: 1.98, 2.94) in one scenario. In addition, in two out of the nine clinical DDIs of lansoprazole and the additional CYP substrates simulated using the Japanese population, the predicted DDI in Japanese was more than 1.25-fold that in Caucasians, indicating an increased DDI liability. CONCLUSIONS By accounting for various physiological parameters that characterize a population in a PBPK model, the impact of the different identified interethnic differences on the drug's PK can be explored, which can inform the adoption of drugs from one region to another.

Abstract
Pediatric physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models facilitate the estimation of pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters in children under specific exposure conditions. In human health risk assessment, PBPK modeling has been used to determine a chemical-specific human kinetic adjustment factor (HKAF). Due to increased demands in regulatory assessment, model evaluation and qualification have gained growing attention. The aim of this study was to undertake model qualification of pediatric PBPK models for compounds that are primarily metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. The objectives were to determine the appropriateness of the virtual individual creating algorithm in PK-Sim® in predicting PK parameters and their variability in children and identify critical system-specific inputs. PBPK models in adults were constructed for several pharmaceuticals (grouped by major clearance process such as CYP3A4). Several age groups of virtual individuals were created to represent children in pediatric clinical studies. The mean and variance of clearance (CL) from virtual populations were compared to observed values. Sensitivity analysis on area under the curve (AUC) was performed. System-specific parameters of virtual children that contribute to inter-individual PK properties were assessed. Eighty-one percent of the comparisons between simulated and observed clearance values were within twofold error. The mean fold errors were 1.1, 1, 0.7 and 1.8 in adolescents, children, infants and neonates, respectively. CL variability was reasonably predicted for 70% of the comparisons with comparable coefficients of variation between observed and predicted. The sensitivity analysis revealed that fraction unbound in plasma, parameters related to CYP enzyme-mediated metabolism and liver volumewere most important in the estimation of pediatric exposure. A comparison of variabilities in weight, height and liver volume in virtual children showed reliable agreement with observed data. The presented results of predictive performance and properties of virtual populations provide confidence in the use of PK-Sim for pediatric PBPK modeling in toxicological applications including PBPK-based-HKAF derivation.

Pharmacodynamics and Pharmacokinetics of a New Type of Compound Lansoprazole Capsule in Gastric Ulcer Rats and Beagle Dogs: Importance of Adjusting Oxidative Stress and Inflammation. Pharmaceutics 2019; 11:pharmaceutics11020049.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of a new type of compound lansoprazole capsule in gastric ulcer rats and beagle dogs in order to confirm whether it is more effective in treating gastric ulcers and its rapid absorption. A rat model of gastric ulcers was used to evaluate the anti-ulcerogenic effect of the compound lansoprazole capsule. A fast and sensitive UPLC-MS/MS method was developed to detect lansoprazole in dog plasma. Macroscopic and histological evaluation results revealed that the compound lansoprazole capsule is more effective in treating gastric ulcers as it was able to significantly reduce the gastric ulcer compared to the other groups. Additionally, it was able to enhance the expression of the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) and suppress lipid peroxidation as indicated by the reduction of malondialdehyde (MDA) and H+-K+-ATP activity. Furthermore, this capsule increased the expression of mucosal vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and cyclic oxygenase 2 (COX-2). The established UPLC-MS/MS method was successfully applied to the evaluation of pharmacokinetic parameters of lansoprazole in beagle dogs. The results indicate that the compound lansoprazole capsule had an advantage of rapid absorption. This study demonstrated that the compound lansoprazole capsule has better gastroprotective activity and that this might be related to its positive influence on oxidative stress and inflammation. This new type of compound lansoprazole capsule may be potentially useful in preclinical therapy.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare the pharmacokinetics of lansoprazole (LPZ) and its main metabolites, 5'-hydroxy lansoprazole (HLPZ) and lansoprazole sulfone (LPZS), after single and multiple intravenous (i.v.) doses of LPZ in healthy Chinese subjects. Twelve subjects (six males and six females) were given a single dose of LPZ by i.v. infusion on day 1, and multiple doses from day 2 to day 6. Blood samples were collected at designated time points for analysis of plasma concentrations of LPZ, HLPZ and LPZS by an LC-MS/MS method. LPZ was generally well tolerated in healthy Chinese subjects. After single and multiple i.v. doses of 30 mg LPZ, the C max values of LPZ, HLPZ and LPZS were 1490 ± 290 and 1450 ± 280, 175 ± 71 and 154 ± 56, and 51.3 ± 82.9 and 74.1 ± 158.7 ng/mL, with the AUC0-t values 3280 ± 2550 and 4260 ± 3880, 381 ± 128 and 389 ± 111, and 389 ± 1204 and 700 ± 2255 ng h/mL, respectively. The t 1/2 and CL values of LPZ after single and multiple i.v. doses were 1.48 ± 1.03 and 2.19 ± 1.03 h, and 11.67 ± 4.49 and 9.56 ± 4.08 L/h, respectively. Compared with the pharmacokinetics of LPZ after a single dose, t 1/2 increased markedly, CL decreased significantly and AUC increased by over 20 % after multiple doses. The results indicated that there was drug accumulation of LPZ after multiple i.v. doses, and there was no gender-related difference in pharmacokinetics of LPZ and its two metabolites.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of lansoprazole (LPZ) and its main metabolites 5'-hydroxy lansoprazole (HLPZ) and lansoprazole sulphone (LPZS) after single intravenous (i.v.) doses of LPZ in healthy Chinese subjects, and the relationship between the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C19 phenotypes and the plasma concentrations of LPZS at the time-points in the elimination phase of LPZ. Twelve subjects were given lansoprazole by i.v. infusion. Blood samples were collected at designated time points up to 24 h. Plasma concentrations of LPZ, HLPZ and LPZS were quantified by a selective and sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method. After single i.v. doses of 15, 30 and 60 mg LPZ, C(max) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC(0-t)) of LPZ were 725 ± 151, 1480 ± 190, 3130 ± 480 µg · L(-1) and 1690 ± 1210, 3630 ± 2530, 8080 ± 4550 µg · h · L(-1), respectively. LPZ was generally well tolerated in healthy Chinese subjects, and displayed linear PK in the range of 15-60 mg. There were significant differences in the elimination of LPZ and the formation of LPZS between the single CYP2C19 poor metabolizer (PM) and the CYP2C19 extensive metabolizers (EM). The concentration of LPZS at the time-points in the elimination phase of LPZ could be monitored for CYP2C19 phenotyping. As a probe drug for CYP2C19 phenotyping, LPZ for injection might be more suitable than LPZ oral formulations.

Abstract
An intraoral annihilation enteric-coated preparation of lansoprazole is often administered via intestinal fistula. The purpose of this study was to determine the plasma concentrations of lansoprazole enantiomers after enteral administration in subjects with cytochrome P4502C19 (CYP2C19) and ABCB1 C3435T genotypes. Fifty-one patients who underwent a curative oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer were enrolled in this study. After a single enteral dose of racemic lansoprazole (30 mg), plasma concentrations of lansoprazole enantiomers were measured 4 h post-dose (C(4h)). There were significant differences in the C(4h) of (R)- and (S)-lansoprazole and the R/S-enantiomer ratio for three CYP2C19 genotype groups (*1/*1, *1/*2 ± *1/*3, and *2/*2 ± *2/*3 ± *3/*3 (poor metabolizers (PMs)), but not the ABCB1 C3435T genotypes. In a stepwise forward selection multiple regression analysis, the C(4h) of (R)- and (S)-lansoprazole were associated with CYP2C19 PMs (p = 0.0005 and < 0.0001 respectively) and age (p = 0.0040 and 0.0121 respectively), while the R/S-enantiomer ratio was associated with CYP2C19*1/*1 (p = 0.0191) and CYP2C19 PMs (p = 0.0426). Direct administration to the jejunum is unaffected by residence time in the stomach and the gastric emptying rate. With enteral administration, CYP2C19 phenotyping of patients using the lansoprazole R/S enantiomer index at C(4h) could be possible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As the comparative pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of lansoprazole and rabeprazole have not previously been studied, we set out in this study to compare the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single and repeated daily doses of lansoprazole 15 mg and 30 mg with those of rabeprazole 10 mg and 20 mg. METHODS This was an open-label, randomised, crossover, two-centre study in 72 healthy volunteers. Each subject received each of the four treatments for 5 days, with 2-week washout periods. Continuous 24-hour intragastric pH and pharmacokinetics were studied on days 1 and 5. RESULTS Mean 24-hour pH and percentage time for pH > 4 were not significantly different between lansoprazole 30 mg and rabeprazole 20 mg. Mean 24-hour pH and percentage time for pH > 4 were significantly greater after lansoprazole 30 mg and rabeprazole 20 mg than after lansoprazole 15 mg and rabeprazole 10 mg, respectively. Lansoprazole resulted in greater acid suppression during hours 0-5 on days 1 and 5, whereas rabeprazole had greater suppression during hours 11-24 on day 5. Time to maximum plasma concentration was significantly shorter for lansoprazole on both days. CONCLUSION Lansoprazole had a consistently faster onset of action, whereas rabeprazole had a greater effect during the evening hours after 5 days of administration.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To determine whether the pharmacokinetics of atazanavir, a protease inhibitor used to treat human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, are altered by its coadministration with lansoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor. DESIGN Single-dose, open-label, complete-crossover study. SETTING Clinical research center. SUBJECTS Ten healthy adult volunteers. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS In phase A, subjects received a single oral dose of atazanavir 400 mg alone. In phase B, the same subjects received oral lansoprazole 60 mg, and after 24 hours they were given a second dose of oral lansoprazole 60 mg with atazanavir 400 mg. Eleven blood samples were collected from each subject over a 24-hour period for determination of atazanavir plasma concentrations by a validated high-performance liquid chromatography assay. Pharmacokinetic analysis was performed by standard noncompartmental methods. Nine subjects completed the study, and no significant adverse events were reported. Absorption of atazanavir was significantly reduced when it was coadministered with lansoprazole, as evidenced by a 94% decline in mean area under the concentration-time curve during the 24 hours after administration (AUC(0-24)) (p<0.01). The mean +/- SD AUC(0-24) for phase A was 16.3 +/- 9.0 microM x hour versus 0.95 +/- 1.8 microM x hour for phase B (p<0.01). The mean +/- SD maximum concentration of atazanavir was 3.2 +/- 1.7 microM for phase A and 0.13 +/- 0.19 microM for phase B (p<0.01). CONCLUSION Acid suppression markedly reduced the bioavailability of atazanavir in this group of healthy volunteers. Based on these results, atazanavir should not be coadministered with lansoprazole or other proton pump inhibitors.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to identify a single time-point for plasma lansoprazole measurement that adequately reflects area under the plasma lansoprazole concentration-time curve (AUC) after administration of lansoprazole alone or together with coadministration with CYP mediators. A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled crossover study design in 3 phases was conducted at intervals of 2 weeks. Eighteen healthy Japanese volunteers, comprising 3 CYP2C19 genotype groups, took a single oral 60-mg dose of lansoprazole after three 6-day pretreatments, that is, clarithromycin 800 mg/d, fluvoxamine 50 mg/d, and placebo. Blood samplings (10 mL each) for determination of lansoprazole were taken up to 24 hours after the administration of lansoprazole. Correlation between plasma lansoprazole concentrations at various time points and AUC0-24 were analyzed. Although there were significant differences in the pharmacokinetic parameters of lansoprazole during clarithromycin and placebo among CYP2C19 genotypes, the differences were not found during fluvoxamine. The plasma concentrations 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours after administration (C3, C4, C6, and C8, respectively) were highly correlated with AUC0-24 in coadministration with placebo, clarithromycin, and fluvoxamine (r>0.8, P<0.001). In particular, C6 showed a correlation coefficient of 0.940, 0.992, and 0.953 in coadministration with placebo, clarithromycin, and fluvoxamine, respectively, and was the most appropriate for estimating AUC0-24. The present study demonstrates that AUC of lansoprazole can be estimated by using a single time-point at C6. This method of plasma concentration monitoring at one time-point might be more suitable for AUC estimation than reference to CYP2C19 genotypes, particularly in coadministration of CYP mediators.

Abstract
The use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) has become widespread in children and infants for the management of paediatric acid-related disease. Pharmacokinetic profiles of only omeprazole and lansoprazole have been well characterised in children over 2 years of age with acid-related diseases. Few data have been recently published regarding the pharmacokinetics of pantoprazole in children, and none are available for rabeprazole or esomeprazole. The metabolism of PPI enantiomers has never been studied in the paediatric population. A one-compartment model best describes the pharmacokinetic behaviour of omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole in children, with important interindividual variability for each pharmacokinetic parameter. Like adults, PPIs are rapidly absorbed in children following oral administration; the mean time to reach maximum plasma concentration varies from 1 to 3 hours. Since these agents are acid labile, their oral formulations consist of capsules containing enteric-coated granules. No liquid formulation is available for any of the PPIs. Thus, for those patients unable to swallow capsules, extemporaneous liquid preparations for omeprazole and lansoprazole have been reported; however, neither the absolute nor the relative bioavailabilities of these oral formulations have been studied in children. Intravenous formulations are available for omeprazole (in Europe), lansoprazole and pantoprazole. PPIs are rapidly metabolised in children, with short elimination half-lives of around 1 hour, similar to that reported for adults. All PPIs are extensively metabolised by the liver, primarily by cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms CYP2C19 and CYP3A4, to inactive metabolites, with little unchanged drug excreted in the urine. Similar to that seen in adults, the absolute bioavailability of omeprazole increases with repeated dosing in children; this phenomenon is thought to be due to a combination of decreased first-pass elimination and reduced systemic clearance. The apparent clearance (CL/F) of omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole appears to be faster for children than for adults. A higher metabolic capacity in children as well as differences in the extent of PPI bioavailability are most likely responsible for this finding. This may partly account for the need in children for variable and sometimes considerably greater doses of PPIs, on a per kilogram basis, than for adults to achieve similar plasma concentrations. Furthermore, no studies have been able to demonstrate a statistically significant correlation between age and pharmacokinetic parameters among children. Despite the small number of very young infants studied, there is some evidence for reduced PPI metabolism in newborns. The limited paediatric data regarding the impact of CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism on PPI metabolism are similar to those reported for adults, with poor metabolisers having 6- to 10-fold higher area under the concentration-time curve values compared with extensive metabolisers. Finally, because a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship exists for PPIs, the significant interindividual variability in their disposition may partly explain the wide range of therapeutic doses used in children. Further studies are needed to better define the pharmacokinetics of PPIs in children <2 years of age.

Abstract
Ageing is associated with a decline in drug elimination; hence, using the same doses as in younger adults may result in higher plasma drug concentrations and toxicity. Two approaches are available for dose correction to account for decreased drug elimination. One procedure is based on the extrarenal elimination fraction (Q(0)) and the age-dependent changes in creatinine clearance; the other uses the decline in total drug clearance (CL). Mean values of Q(0) and CL in young and old people are reported for many drugs in the literature and are summarised in this article. Although the pharmacokinetic techniques for dose adjustment in the elderly are useful, they provide only an average dose correction and neglect age-dependent changes in drug bio-availability, plasma protein binding, the fate of active metabolites, and altered sensitivity to drugs. To account for pharmacodynamic changes in old age, clinical and/or biochemical targets should be defined as therapeutic goals. Drugs whose effects cannot be monitored in these terms should be avoided in elderly individuals.

Abstract
AIM To investigate whether the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of rabeprazole are dependent on CYP2C19 genotype status in healthy Chinese Han subjects. METHODS The CYP2C19 genotype status of healthy Chinese Han volunteers was determined using the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Twenty healthy subjects volunteered to participate in the study. There were seven homozygous extensive metabolizers (homEM), six heterozygous extensive metabolizers (hetEM), and seven poor metabolizers (PM). All subjects were Helicobactor pylori-negative, which was determined by sero-logy and 13C-urea breath tests. Rabeprazole (20 mg) was taken orally once daily in the morning for 8 days, and intragastric pH values were monitored for 24 h by Digitrapper pH after day 1 (single dose) and day 8 (repeated dose). Meanwhile, blood samples were collected at various time-points for 24 h after administration. The serum concentrations of rabeprazole were measured using high-performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS The mean area under the curve (AUC) values for rabeprazole differed among the three different genotype groups, with a relative ratio of 1.0, 1.3, and 1.8 after a single dose and 1.0, 1.1, and 1.7 after repeated doses in the homEM, hetEM, and PM groups, respectively. Mean AUC values for rabeprazole after a single dose and after repeated doses were significantly different between the homEM and PM groups, but not between the homEM and hetEM or hetEM and PM groups. No significant differences in intragastric pH median, pH>4 total time, and pH>4 time percentage of 24 h, were observed among the three different genotype groups after a single dose or after repeated doses of rabeprazole. CONCLUSION In healthy Chinese Han subjects, the pharmacokinetics of rabeprazole are dependent on a certain degree on CYP2C19 genotype status; however, the acid-inhibitory efficacy of rabeprazole is not influenced significantly by CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism.

Abstract
In last years the use in the pediatric area of proton pump inhibitors (omeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole and esomeprazole) is more often, nevertheless the clinical trials carried out are poor. The aim of this work is to analyse the bibliography published about this kind of drugs in children and to make a revision of its use in the last seven years. More studies with omeprazole and lansoprazole have been developed, to be exact omeprazole and lansoprazole is present in 122 bibliographic appointments and 34 for lansoprazole, which include studies that demonstrate a good tolerance and efficacy. The remaining proton pump inhibitors count with very few studies. The main therapeutic indications were the eradication of Helicobacter pylori, gastroesophageal reflux disease and esophagitis. The number of patients included in the reviewed studies is quite heterogeneous, from 8 to 122 and the age range between 8 days and 17 years. On the other hand, it could be highlighted the non-existence of formulations adapted to the pediatric population and the difficulty of administration specially in the youngest patients. As in many other drugs, it would be necessary to carry out clinical trials in order to determinate the pharmacologic parameters at difference ages, which will allow a safe and effective administration, and its authorization by all Health Authorities.

Abstract
AIM To compare the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of lansoprazole 30 mg administered intravenously in 0.9% NaCl or in polyethylene glycol, or orally. METHODS Twenty-nine subjects received lansoprazole orally on days 1-7 and intravenous lansoprazole in NaCl on days 8-14. Blood samples were collected on days 1, 7, 8 and 14. Fasting basal acid output and pentagastrin-stimulated maximal acid output were determined on days -1, 8, 9 and 15. Thirty-six different subjects received one of four regimen sequences: intravenous lansoprazole in NaCl, intravenous in polyethylene glycol, per orally, or intravenous placebo, each for 5 days. Twenty-four hour intragastric pH was recorded on days 1 and 5. RESULTS Intravenous and per oral lansoprazole for 7 days produced equivalent basal acid output and maximal acid output suppression. Pharmacokinetics and mean pH values with intravenous lansoprazole in NaCl or polyethylene glycol were equivalent. Both produced mean pH and percentages of time pH above 3, 4, 5 and 6 that were significantly greater than did per orally. CONCLUSIONS Intravenous lansoprazole inhibits acid secretion as effectively in NaCl as in polyethylene glycol, and its onset of action is faster than per oral lansoprazole.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many individuals with acid-related gastrointestinal disorders have difficulty in swallowing oral agents. AIM To compare the bio-availability of a single dose of lansoprazole orally disintegrating tablet with that of an intact capsule. METHODS One hundred and twenty healthy subjects participated in two prospective, Phase I, open-label, two-period cross-over studies to receive lansoprazole, 15 mg or 30 mg. Within each study, subjects were randomized into two parallel cohorts consisting of 30 subjects per regimen, dispensed in opposing sequence over two periods separated by a 7-day washout period. Blood samples were collected on day 1 of both periods to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters. RESULTS Tmax occurred at 1.8 and 2.0 h with the 15-mg and 30-mg tablets, respectively. Dose proportional increases in Cmax, AUCt and AUC infinity were observed in the 15-mg and 30-mg groups. The terminal elimination half-lives (t1/2) were identical in both dose groups (1.18 h). Lansoprazole administered as the orally disintegrating tablet was bio-equivalent to the intact capsule formulation with respect to Cmax, AUCt and AUC infinity. CONCLUSIONS Lansoprazole orally disintegrating tablets, 15 mg and 30 mg, are bio-equivalent to the respective dose administered as the intact capsule. This novel dosage formulation represents an option for patients who have difficulty in swallowing oral agents.

Abstract
AIM To compare the 24-h intragastric pH effects of simplified lansoprazole suspension, 30 mg, administered nasogastrically, with pantoprazole, 40 mg, administered intravenously. METHODS Thirty-six healthy adults were enrolled and given simplified lansoprazole suspension, 30 mg (nasogastrically), or pantoprazole, 40 mg (intravenously), once daily for five consecutive days in a cross-over fashion. Intragastric pH was monitored at baseline and on Days 1 and 5 of each treatment period. The pharmacokinetic parameters of lansoprazole and pantoprazole were also determined on Days 1 and 5. RESULTS No statistically significant changes in pharmacokinetic parameters occurred between Days 1 and 5 with either regimen, except for pantoprazole Cmax. On Days 1 and 5, significantly higher mean 24-h intragastric pH values were observed with 30 mg simplified lansoprazole suspension compared with 40 mg intravenous pantoprazole (Day 1, 3.13 vs. 2.67; Day 5, 3.95 vs. 3.61, respectively; P < 0.05). Additionally, 30 mg simplified lansoprazole suspension produced significantly (P < 0.05) higher percentages of time intragastric pH was above 3, 4, 5 or 6 as compared with 40 mg intravenous pantoprazole throughout Days 1 and 5. CONCLUSIONS A 30 mg dose of simplified lansoprazole suspension administered nasogastrically was consistently more effective at controlling intragastric pH than pantoprazole, 40 mg, administered intravenously.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Esomeprazole is the first proton pump inhibitor to be developed as an optical isomer for the treatment of patients with acid-related diseases. The aim of this study was to examine the pharmacokinetics and tolerability of esomeprazole in the elderly, relative to middle-aged patients with gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD). DESIGN Nonblinded single-centre pharmacokinetic study with historical control group. PATIENTS AND PARTICIPANTS 14 healthy elderly volunteers [mean age 74 (range 71 to 80) years]. METHODS Participants received treatment with esomeprazole 40 mg once daily for 5 days, with 24-hour blood sampling on days 1 and 5. The total area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUCinfinity), maximum plasma drug concentration (Cmax), terminal elimination half-life (t(1/2z)) and time to Cmax (tmax) were determined for the parent drug and its hydroxy and sulphone metabolites. AUCinfinity and Cmax data were compared with those in an historical group of 36 middle-aged patients [mean age 45 (range 29 to 58) years] with GORD, treated with an identical dosage of esomeprazole for 5 days. RESULTS A total of 13 volunteers completed the study. On day 5, the mean plasma AUCinfinity of esomeprazole was 16.0 micromol x h/L, Cmax was 5.6 micromol/L, tmax was 1.5 hours and t(1/2z) was 1.7 hours. The AUCinfinity and Cmax values for the parent drug were 2- and 1.5-fold higher on day 5 compared with day 1. AUCinfinity and Cmax values for the sulphone metabolite increased to a slightly greater extent, and values for the hydroxy metabolite were unchanged. Ratios of the AUCinfinity and Cmax values between elderly volunteers and patients with GORD were 1.25 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.94, 1.67] and 1.18 (0.91, 1.52), respectively. Esomeprazole was well tolerated and there were no safety concerns. CONCLUSIONS The AUCinfinity and Cmax values in the elderly were not significantly different from those obtained in a group of middle-aged patients. The difference for AUCinfinity was 25% (95% CI -6% to +67%). Esomeprazole has a wide therapeutic window and our results do not indicate that dosage adjustment should be necessary in the elderly.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the 24-h intragastric pH effects of lansoprazole, 30 mg administered nasogastrically, with pantoprazole, 40 mg administered i.v. METHODS Healthy adults were enrolled in an open label, two-way crossover, single-center study. Thirty milligrams of lansoprazole (administered nasogastrically in apple juice) or pantoprazole (i.v.) were administered once daily at 8:00 AM for 5 consecutive days with at least a 2-wk washout period between the regimens. Ambulatory 24-h intragastric pH was monitored at baseline and on days 1 and 5 of each treatment period. Blood specimens were collected on days I and 5 for pharmacokinetic parameter determinations. RESULTS Thirty-three adults completed both crossover periods, with the exception of one patient with a zero lansoprazole plasma concentration on day 1 of period 2. Lansoprazole, 30 mg per nasogastric tube, produced significantly higher mean 24-h intragastric pH values relative to pantoprazole, 40 mg i.v., on both day 1 (3.05 vs 2.76, p < 0.002) and day 5 (3.65 vs 3.45, p = 0.024). Lansoprazole sustained the intragastric pH above 3 (days 1 and 5), 4, and 5 (day 1) significantly longer relative to pantoprazole. Lansoprazole's time to the maximum observed concentration and area under the plasma concentration-time curve over the 24-h time interval increased significantly from day I to day 5 (1.7 h vs 2.0 h and 1865 ng x h/ml vs 2091 ng x h/ml, respectively), and a significant increase in half-life relative to day 1 (0.96 h) was observed on day 5 (1.03 h) during pantoprazole treatment. CONCLUSION Lansoprazole, 30 mg administered nasogastrically, effectively controls intragastric pH and is an alternative to i.v. pantoprazole in patients who are unable to swallow solid dosage formulations.

Abstract
AIM A double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the duration of effect of lansoprazole 30 mg o.m. on intragastric pH, acid secretion, gastrin levels, the potential for rebound acidity, and the relationship between gastric acid and drug pharmacokinetic parameters. METHODS Sixteen subjects were treated with lansoprazole 30 mg daily or placebo for 14 days, followed by a 7-day post-dosing period and a post-study evaluation on day 28. Ambulatory 24-h pH was recorded and pentagastrin-stimulated acid secretion measured. Plasma kinetics of lansoprazole were determined. RESULTS Mean intragastric pH in the lansoprazole group increased significantly (P < 0.05) from baseline to day 14 compared to placebo. After cessation of treatment, secretory activity, as measured by intragastric pH, basal acid output and stimulated acid output, returned to baseline in 2 to 4 days without any overshoot, indicating the absence of acid rebound. Lansoprazole's terminal disposition half-life was 1.11 h. Mean pH and serum gastrin returned to baseline with half-lives of 22 and 19 h, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Lansoprazole 30 mg daily significantly increases mean intragastric pH without producing acid rebound. Regeneration of acid production depends primarily on de novo synthesis of the acid pump.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The success of eradication therapy for Helicobacter pylori might be affected by the age of patients. AIM To investigate whether disposition of drugs commonly used for H. pylori eradication is age-dependent. METHODS Trough steady state serum levels of lansoprazole or ranitidine, amoxycillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole were monitored in 232 patients during the last dosing interval of a 5-day quadruple H. pylori eradication regimen. Detailed pharmacokinetic analysis was performed in 28 patients. RESULTS Linear correlations between age and trough serum levels were observed with lansoprazole (r=0.25; P=0.002), ranitidine (r=0. 38; P=0.001) and clarithromycin (r=0.36; P < 0.0001). These associations were also inversely dependent of creatinine clearance for ranitidine (r=0.36; P=0.001) and clarithromycin (r=0.30; P < 0. 0001). Multiple linear regression revealed age as an important factor influencing trough serum levels of lansoprazole, clarithromycin and ranitidine. There were significant inverse relationships between creatinine clearance and area under curve of ranitidine (r=0.88; P < 0.0001) and amoxycillin (r=0.56; P=0.002). Multiple linear regression revealed serum creatinine as the most important factor influencing the area under curve of ranitidine, clarithromycin and amoxycillin. CONCLUSIONS Age per se has little influence on pharmacokinetics of amoxycillin and ranitidine, which depend more on age-dependent decline in renal function. The influence of age, but not renal function was established for lansoprazole. Age and renal function have independent impacts on clarithromycin disposition.

Abstract
As Helicobacter pylori plays an important role in the aetiopathogenesis of peptic ulcer, therapeutic strategies aimed at maintaining long term remission have shifted from the control of intragastric pH to targeting H. pylori. According to recent international guidelines the clinical goals--rapid ulcer healing and prevention of relapse--can be best accomplished by combination therapy consisting of an antisecretory drug (proton pump inhibitor or ranitidine) and 2 antimicrobial agents (preferable amoxicillin, clarithromycin or metronidazole). When applying such multidrug regimens, possible synergy between the agents suggests that pharmacokinetic considerations might help to improve H. pylori eradication rates, which should be above 85 to 90% on an intention-to-treat basis. The present review summarises the pharmacokinetic properties and interaction potential of all drugs presently used in the various H. pylori eradication regimens, with emphasis on particular patient populations such as the elderly and those with renal impairment. The drugs considered are omeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole, ranitidine and ranitidine bismutrex, bismuth salts, amoxicillin, clarithromycin, azithromycin, roxithromycin, metronidazole, tinidazole and tetracycline. When addressing the clinically important questions of the efficacy, safety and costs of the recommended regimens, the impact of drug disposition on H. pylori eradication should not be neglected.

Abstract
AIMS Theophylline is a model substrate of cytochrome P4501A2. The ability of the proton pump inhibitors (PPI) omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole to induce cytochrome P4501A2 has not yet been unequivocally resolved. The aim of this comprehensive study was to compare directly the effect of the three PPI on the absorption and disposition of theophylline. METHODS Twenty healthy, nonsmoking, male and female volunteers (extensive metabolisers of cytochrome P4502C19 and Helicobacter pylori negative) participated in a randomized, double-blind, four-period, placebo-controlled crossover study. In each of the four periods they received either omeprazole (40 mg), lansoprazole (60 mg), pantoprazole (80 mg) or placebo once daily for 10 days. Sustained release theophylline (350 mg twice daily) was coadministered from day 8-10. Pharmacokinetics of theophylline as well as of all three PPI were determined at steady-state (day 10). RESULTS In all periods, point estimates and 90% confidence intervals of the area under the concentration-time curves (AUC), maximum steady-state concentrations and peak-trough fluctuations of theophylline were not altered by PPI pretreatment and met the required limits for bioequivalence. Point estimates (90% confidence intervals) of the AUC ratios of theophylline plus PPI to theophylline alone were 0.92 (0.87-0.97), 0.90 (0.85-0.95) and 1.00 (0.95-1.06) for omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Concomitant intake of omeprazole, lansoprazole or pantoprazole at high therapeutic doses does not affect the absorption and disposition of theophylline.

Abstract
AIM To compare the pharmacokinetics of lansoprazole in patients with reflux oesophagitis and in healthy volunteers, after a single dose and at steady-state. PATIENTS AND METHODS A 30 mg dose of lansoprazole was administered orally daily for 7 days in eight healthy male volunteers aged 21-24 years, and in 16 patients aged 29-65 years with grade 2 or 3 reflux oesophagitis. The pharmacokinetics were assessed over the 24 h dose interval following the first dose and again after the 7th dose. RESULTS Within both the patient and volunteers groups, there were no significant differences between day 1 and day 7 in any of the pharmacokinetic parameters including maximum concentration (Cmax), area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), and terminal half-life of elimination (t(1/2)). However, on both days 1 and 7, values were significantly higher in the patients than in the healthy volunteers. On day 7, Cmax was 1343 ng/mL in patients compared with 765 ng/mL in healthy volunteers, AUC was 3458 ng.h/mL vs. 1350 ng.h/mL and t(1/2) was 1.62 h vs. 0.90 h. CONCLUSION The differences in results for the pharmacokinetics reflect reduced lansoprazole clearance in the patient group. Other research has not found a difference in pharmacokinetics when comparing healthy volunteers with patients with acid-related disorders. The difference in lansoprazole clearance in this study may be related to a variety of factors that are different in patients compared with young normal volunteers, such as age, gender, other drugs, and reduced general well-being.

Abstract
Pharmacotherapy in the elderly requires an understanding of the age-dependent changes in function and composition of the body. Aging is characterised by a progressive loss of functional capacities of most if not all organs, a reduction in response to receptor stimulation and homeostatic mechanisms, and a loss of water content and an increase of fat content in the body. The most important pharmacokinetic change in old age is a decrease in the excretory capacity of the kidney; in this regard, the elderly should be considered as renally insufficient patients. The decline in the rate of drug metabolism with advancing age is less marked. In addition, the volume of distribution and the oral bioavailability of drugs may be changed in the elderly compared with younger individuals. Average dosage adjustments for the aged can be derived from simple equations and mean pharmacokinetic parameters from older and younger adults. However, these average dose adjustment factors neglect the large variation in the decline in organ functions among the elderly. Individual dose adjustment factors can be obtained from the drug clearance in a particular patient, where clearance/fractional bioavailability (CL/f) may be calculated from the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of the drug in question. Using pharmacokinetic guidelines for dose adjustments, the same plasma drug concentrations result in elderly as in younger adults. However, we are frequently confronted with pharmacodynamic changes in old age which alter the sensitivity to drugs, irrespective of changes in drug disposition. For instance, the sensitivity of the cardiovascular system to beta-adrenergic agonists and antagonists decreases in old age and the incidence of orthostatic episodes in response to drugs that lower blood pressure is increased. The CNS is especially vulnerable in the elderly; agents that affect brain function (anaesthetics, opioids, anticonvulsants, psychotropic drugs) must be used very cautiously in this age group. The increased responsiveness to drugs in the elderly renders the measurement of drug plasma concentrations an attractive method to monitor pharmacotherapy in this age group. Sensitive technology to quantitatively determine plasma drug concentrations is available. However, optimal therapeutic plasma concentrations have not been established for most drugs in the elderly. Investigations concerning drug pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationships in the aged are an important area of future work in clinical pharmacology.

Abstract
In a placebo-controlled, double-blind, multiple crossover study, the initial and chronic acid-inhibitory effect of lansoprazole 30 mg, orally administered half an hour before breakfast or immediately after breakfast, and of omeprazole 20 mg, administered postprandially, respectively, was investigated in 16 healthy volunteers, using ambulant 24-hr intragastric pH monitoring. On the first day of medication, only preprandially administered lansoprazole reduced acid secretion significantly (median 24-hr pH 3.0; P < 0.05). On day 15, the median 24-hr intragastric pH of lansoprazole preprandial (pH 4.1), lansoprazole postprandial (pH 4.3), and omeprazole postprandial (pH 3.3), respectively, differed significantly (P < 0.05) from placebo (pH 1.2). It is concluded that the interaction between food intake and lansoprazole administration only is important at the start of oral therapy. Lansoprazole taken before breakfast is effective even on the initial day of treatment.

Abstract
Pharmacodynamic studies of Helicobacter pylori exposed to amoxicillin, clarithromycin, metronidazole, omeprazole, and lansoprazole were performed with microscopy, viable count determination, and bioluminescence assay of intracellular ATP. The pharmacodynamic parameters determined were change in morphology, change in cell density, postantibiotic effect (PAE), and control-related effective regrowth time (CERT). The PAE is delayed regrowth after brief exposure to antibiotics or acid pump inhibitors. CERT was defined as the time required for the bacteria to resume logarithmic growth and return to the pre-exposure inoculum in the test culture minus the corresponding time for the control culture. CERT measures the combined effect of initial killing and PAE. There was a good concordance between the bioluminescence assay and viable counts for determining CERT, which makes this parameter useful for pharmacodynamic studies of the effects of antibiotics and acid pump inhibitors on H. pylori. Amoxicillin and metronidazole produced a strong, concentration-dependent initial decrease in CFU per milliliter, but there was a less prominent initial change in intracellular ATP in these cultures. Amoxicillin caused a long PAE when assayed by the bioluminescence assay but no PAE or a negative PAE when assayed by viable count determination. However, amoxicillin showed similar long CERTs with both methods. The pharmacodynamic effects of amoxicillin were concentration dependent up to a maximum response, indicating that concentrations above this level do not increase the antibiotic effect. The PAEs and CERTs of clarithromycin and metronidazole were concentration dependent with no maximum response. With omeprazole and lanzoprazole, there was no PAE or CERT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the possible involvement of CYP2C19 in the metabolism of lansoprazole in vivo. METHODS Sixteen male Korean subjects, who had been phenotyped as extensive metabolizers and poor metabolizers of S-mephenytoin 4'-hydroxylation polymorphism (n = 8 each) with racemic mephenytoin with use of the 8-hour urine analysis of 4'-hydroxymephenytoin, took an oral dose of 30 mg lansoprazole, and blood samples were collected up to 48 hours after dosing. Lansoprazole and its metabolites were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. RESULTS The mean lansoprazole area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), elimination half-life (t1/2), and apparent oral clearance (CLoral) were significantly (p < 0.001) greater, longer, and lower, respectively, in the poor metabolizer than in the extensive metabolizer group. The mean values for the AUC of hydroxylansoprazole and AUC ratio of hydroxylansoprazole to lansoprazole were significantly (p < 0.01 to p < 0.001) less in the poor metabolizer than in the extensive metabolizer group, whereas those for the AUC of lansoprazole sulfone and ratio of lansoprazole sulfone to lansoprazole were greater (p < 0.001) in the former than in the latter group. In addition, the log10 4'-hydroxymephenytoin excreted in urine correlated significantly (p < 0.01) with the CLoral of lansoprazole. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that the hydroxylation of lansoprazole cosegregates with the genetically determined S-mephenytoin 4'-hydroxylation (CYP2C19) polymorphism in the Korean subjects.

Abstract
We compared gastric pH values after therapeutic doses of lansoprazole and omeprazole in 17 healthy adult men. The pharmacokinetics of the two drugs were studied. A three-way crossover design compared the effects on gastric pH of 15 and 30 mg lansoprazole and 20 mg omeprazole--each given once daily for 5 days. Ambulatory 24-h intragastric pH levels were measured before dosing, after the first and fifth doses in each period, and 15 days after each dosing period. A positive relationship between the lansoprazole or omeprazole area under the curve (AUCs) and the 24-h mean pH values was found for each regimen. No differences in maximum concentration (Cmax) and AUC were noted from day 1 to day 5 for the two lansoprazole doses. With omeprazole, both Cmax and AUC levels were greater on day 5 than on day 1. All three regimens increased 24-h mean gastric pH, although 30 mg lansoprazole had the most significant effect. The percentage of time that gastric pH was >3, >4, and >5 was also significantly higher with 30 mg lansoprazole. All three regimens were associated with reversible elevations of serum gastrin, which more than doubled at some points. No clinically significant adverse events were documented.

Abstract
This review updates and evaluates the currently available information regarding the pharmacokinetics, metabolism and interactions of the acid pump inhibitors omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole. Differences and similarities between the compounds are discussed. Omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole are all mainly metabolished by the polymorphically expressed cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoform S-mephenytoin hydroxylase (CYP2C19), which means that within a population a few individuals (3% of Caucasians) metabolise the compounds slowly compared with the majority of the population. For all 3 compounds, the area under the plasma concentration-versus-time curve (AUC) for a slow metaboliser is, in general, approximately 5 times higher than that in an average patient. Since all 3 compounds are considered safe and well tolerated, and no dosage-related adverse drug reactions have been identified, this finding seems to be of no clinical relevance. The acid pump inhibitors seem to be similarly handled in the elderly, where a somewhat slower elimination can be demonstrated compared with young individuals. In patients with renal insufficiency, omeprazole is eliminated as in healthy individuals, whereas the data on lansoprazole and pantoprazole are unresolved. In patients with hepatic insufficiency, as expected, the elimination rates of all 3 compounds are substantially decreased. No clinically relevant effects on specific endogenous glandular functions, such as the adrenal (cortisol), the gonads or the thyroid, were demonstrated for omeprazole and pantoprazole, whereas a few minor concerns have been raised regarding lansoprazole. The absorption of some compounds, e.g. digoxin, might be altered as a result of the increased gastric pH obtained during treatment with acid pump inhibitors, and, accordingly, similar effects are expected irrespective of which acid pump inhibitor is given. The effect of the acid pump inhibitors on enzymes in the liver has been intensely debated, and some authors have claimed that lansoprazole and pantoprazole have less potential than omeprazole to interact with other drugs metabolised by CYP. However, after assessment of available data in this area, the conclusion is that all 3 acid pump inhibitors have a very limited potential for drug interactions at the CYP level. In addition, the small effects on CYP reported for these compounds are rarely of any clinical relevance, considering the normal intra- (and inter-)individual variations in metabolism observed for most drugs. In conclusion, omeprazole, lansoprazole and pantoprazole are structurally very similar, and an evaluation of available data indicates that also with respect to pharmacokinetics, metabolism and interactions in general they demonstrate very similar properties, even though omeprazole has been more thoroughly studied with regard to different effects.

Abstract
Lansoprazole, a benzimidazole derivative with antisecretory and antiulcer activities, inhibits the acid pump activity at the final stage of the enzyme process and therefore reduces the acid secretion of parietal cells. Lansoprazole is converted to active metabolites in the acid environment of these cells. It is rapidly absorbed from a gastric acid-resistant formulation and is approximately 97% bound in human plasma. Single dose pharmacokinetics of lansoprazole appear to be linear over the range from 15 to 60mg. Food and time of dose influence absorption after single doses, but do not modify the antisecretory effect of multiple doses. Lansoprazole is extensively metabolised following oral administration into sulphone and 5-hydroxylated metabolites by the cytochrome P450 enzymes CYP3A4 and CYP2C18. Two other metabolites have been identified in plasma: sulphide and hydroxylated sulphone. Mean plasma elimination half-life (t1/2) is between 1.3 and 2.1 hours in healthy volunteers. 15 to 23% of the total dose is found in urine as free and conjugated hydroxylated metabolites, while unchanged lansoprazole is not detected. The pharmacokinetic profile of the drug is not modified by multiple administration. In healthy elderly volunteers, area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and t1/2 are significantly greater after single administration occurs to the same extent as in young volunteers. Renal failure has no influence on the pharmacokinetics of lansoprazole, but severe hepatic failure causes a significant decrease in clearance and an increase in the AUC and t1/2 of lansoprazole. This is accompanied by modifications in the AUC of metabolites, but severe hepatic failure has minimal effect on accumulation of the drug after multiple administration. The pharmacokinetics of lansoprazole in patients with acid-related disorders do not differ from those in healthy volunteers. Studies of interactions of lansoprazole with warfarin, prednisone, theophylline, phenazone (antipyrine), diazepam, phenytoin and oral contraceptives suggest minimal risk of any clinically significant interaction.

Abstract
Lansoprazole is a benzimidazole derivative that effectively decreases gastric acid secretion, regardless of the primary stimulus, via inhibition of gastric H+,K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase). It provides effective symptom relief and healing of peptic ulcer and reflux oesophagitis after 4 to 8 weeks of therapy and appears to prevent recurrence of lesions when administered as maintenance therapy. When administered at therapeutic dosages, lansoprazole produced higher healing rates than ranitidine or famotidine in patients with duodenal and gastric ulcers. Lansoprazole heals duodenal ulcers more rapidly than ranitidine or famotidine. Relief of ulcer symptoms in lansoprazole recipients is at least equivalent to, and tends to be more rapid than, that in patients receiving histamine H2-receptor antagonists. In comparisons with omeprazole 20 mg/day, lansoprazole 30 mg/day produced duodenal ulcer healing more rapidly and reduced ulcer pain to a greater extent at 2 weeks, but overall healing rates were similar after 4 weeks of therapy. At therapeutic dosages, lansoprazole produces superior healing and symptom relief of reflux oesophagitis in comparison with ranitidine, and it tends to relieve heartburn more effectively than omeprazole, although both agents produce equivalent healing. Healing of peptic ulcers or reflux oesophagitis refractory to histamine H2-receptor antagonists occurs after 8 weeks in the majority of patients treated with lansoprazole, and lansoprazole and omeprazole demonstrate similar efficacy in patients with refractory peptic ulcers. In patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, lansoprazole effectively controls mean basal gastric acid output. Lansoprazole is generally well tolerated in clinical trials. The incidence of adverse effects is similar to that of omeprazole, ranitidine and famotidine in comparative studies. Combination therapy with lansoprazole and antibacterial agents such as amoxicillin, tinidazole, roxithromycin and/or metronidazole appears to eradicate Helicobacter pylori in 22 to 80% of patients with this organism. Limited data also suggest that lansoprazole may have superior activity against H. pylori in comparison with omeprazole, although the clinical relevance of this preliminary finding requires further confirmation. Thus, lansoprazole may be considered as alternative to existing antisecretory agents available for the treatment of acid-related disorders, particularly because it may provide more rapid healing and relief of symptoms.
