Pharmacokinetics and tolerability of the maturation inhibitor GSK3640254 coadministered with darunavir/ritonavir and/or etravirine in healthy adults. Br J Clin Pharmacol 2024; 90:274-285. [PMID: 37621050 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.15893] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 08/04/2023] [Accepted: 08/09/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS This phase I study investigated potential drug-drug interactions of the maturation inhibitor GSK3640254 (GSK'254) with darunavir/ritonavir (DRV/RTV) and/or etravirine (ETR). METHODS In this randomized, open-label, single-sequence, multiple-dose study, healthy participants received GSK'254 200 mg once daily alone or coadministered with DRV/RTV 600/100 mg twice daily (BID; n = 19), ETR 200 mg BID (n = 19) or DRV/RTV 600/100 mg + ETR 200 mg BID (n = 16) under fed conditions. Primary endpoints were steady-state area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the end of the dosing interval (AUC0-τ ) and maximum observed concentration (Cmax ). Secondary endpoints included trough concentration (Cτ ), safety and tolerability. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using standard noncompartmental analysis, and geometric least-squares mean ratios were derived from linear mixed-effects models. RESULTS GSK'254 AUC0-τ (geometric least-squares mean ratio [90% confidence interval], 1.14 [1.00-1.29]), Cmax (1.07 [0.92-1.24]) and Cτ (1.17 [1.01-1.35]) were similar when administered alone and with DRV/RTV. Etravirine coadministration decreased GSK'254 AUC0-τ (0.53 [0.48-0.59]), Cmax (0.60 [0.53-0.68]) and Cτ (0.51 [0.39-0.66]). Similar reductions were not observed with GSK'254 + DRV/RTV + ETR (AUC0-τ , 0.94 [0.82-1.09]; Cmax , 0.89 [0.75-1.07]; Cτ , 1.02 [0.89-1.18]). GSK'254 had no meaningful effect on DRV/RTV or ETR concentrations. All reported adverse events (AEs) were grade 1; 3 led to withdrawal and resolved (rash, asymptomatic electrocardiogram T-wave inversion, periorbital oedema). Most common AEs were diarrhoea (n = 9) and headache (n = 7). No deaths or serious AEs occurred. CONCLUSION GSK'254 pharmacokinetics was not meaningfully affected by DRV/RTV or DRV/RTV + ETR, but were reduced with only ETR; no new tolerability concerns were observed.

Abstract
Coincidental with the intensified regulatory and industry focus on the design and conduct of human absorption, metabolism, and excretion (hAME) studies in the past 12 months, we have recently completed our 500th cohort involving radiolabeled test item administration to humans. Here, we build upon a recent industry white paper in this journal1 and share some of our own experiences as a Contract Research Organization based upon collaborations with numerous pharma companies and their differing approaches to design and timing, to add further context to the discussion regarding hAME studies and the pivotal role that drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics plays. In this article, we explore how both changing relationships within the industry and shifting regulatory guidelines are impacting strategies, and compare EU and US pre-study approval requirements, before evaluating the trends from over 500 studies conducted at our global facilities conducted over more than 30 years. We conclude with a review of how improved technical capabilities and strategies are influencing the design and conduct of hAME studies, before speculating on some of the driving factors which may shape the direction they take in the future.

Pharmacol Res Perspect 2023; 11:e01151. [PMID: 37961928 PMCID: PMC10644204 DOI: 10.1002/prp2.1151] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2023] [Revised: 09/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/07/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
GSK3640254 (GSK'254) is a novel HIV-1 maturation inhibitor with pharmacokinetics supporting once-daily (QD) therapy for HIV-1 treatment. This thorough QT/corrected QT (QTc) study evaluated the effect of GSK'254 on cardiac repolarization. In this two-part, randomized study, healthy participants received GSK'254 or placebo QD for 7 days (part 1) to determine safety and pharmacokinetics of a 500-mg supratherapeutic dose. Four sequential treatment periods composed the main QTc study (part 2): GSK'254 100 mg, GSK'254 500 mg, placebo QD for 7 days, or placebo QD for 6 days with a 400-mg moxifloxacin dose on Day 7 (all with a moderate-fat meal). Concentration-QTc analyses modeled the relationship between GSK'254 plasma concentrations and placebo-adjusted change from baseline in QT interval corrected with Fridericia's formula (ΔΔQTcF). Of 50 participants enrolled, 48 completed the study (part 1, 8/8; part 2, 40/42). Least-squares (LS) mean change from baseline in QTcF for GSK'254 100 mg followed the placebo pattern across time points (maximum LS mean ΔΔQTcF, 1.7 ms); the upper bound of the 90% CI remained <10 ms. Maximum LS mean ΔΔQTcF for GSK'254 500 mg exceeded the 10-ms threshold: 10.6 ms (90% CI 7.75-13.38). Neither GSK'254 dose had clinically relevant effects on heart rate or cardiac conduction. By concentration-QTc analysis, no effect on ΔΔQTcF >10 ms is expected up to GSK'254 concentrations of ~3070 ng mL-1 . No clinically relevant effects on cardiac parameters were seen in healthy participants with GSK'254 at the 100-mg dose.

Investigation of the human metabolism and disposition of the prolyl hydrolase inhibitor daprodustat using IV microtracer with Entero-Test bile string. Pharmacol Res Perspect 2023; 11:e1145. [PMID: 37885335 PMCID: PMC10603292 DOI: 10.1002/prp2.1145] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Daprodustat is an oral small molecule hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) prolyl hydroxylase inhibitor (PHI) approved in Japan and the United States for the treatment of anemia associated with chronic kidney disease. This phase 1, nonrandomized, 2-period, crossover study in 6 healthy men characterized and quantified the metabolites generated after a microtracer IV infusion of 50 μg (125 nCi) [14 C]-daprodustat administered concomitantly with a nonradiolabeled therapeutic dose of a 6-mg daprodustat tablet, followed by a single oral solution dose of 25 mg (62.5 μCi) [14 C]-daprodustat. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with radioactivity detection (TopCount or AMS) and HPLC-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MSn ) were used for quantitative measurement and structural identification of radioactive metabolites in plasma, urine, feces, and bile. Following oral administration of [14 C]-daprodustat, unchanged daprodustat was the principal circulating drug-related component, accounting for 40% of plasma radioactivity. Predominant oxidative metabolites M2, M3, M4, and M13 individually represented 6-8% of the plasma radioactivity and together accounted for the majority of radioactivity in urine and feces (53% in both matrices; 12% and 41% of dose, respectively). Unchanged daprodustat was not detected in urine and was only 0.7% of total radioactivity in feces (<0.5% of dose), with the remainder of the dose accounted for by oxidative metabolites. The radio-metabolic profile of duodenal bile following IV infusion of [14 C]-daprodustat was similar to that observed in feces after oral administration. The data suggested that oral daprodustat was extensively absorbed, cleared exclusively by oxidative metabolism, and eliminated via hepatobiliary (primary) and urinary (secondary) excretion.

Open-label, drug-drug interaction study between the HIV-1 maturation inhibitor GSK3640254 and a metabolic probe cocktail in healthy participants. Br J Clin Pharmacol 2023; 89:2236-2245. [PMID: 36822839 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.15699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Revised: 02/05/2023] [Accepted: 02/06/2023] [Indexed: 02/25/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS GSK3640254 (GSK'254) is an HIV-1 maturation inhibitor with pharmacokinetics (PK) supporting once-daily dosing. GSK'254 will be co-administered with cytochrome P450 enzyme substrates and drug transporters, including other antiretrovirals, in people living with HIV-1 (PLWH). METHODS In this open-label study, healthy participants received a single dose of a cocktail of eight cytochrome P450 and transporter probe substrates on Day 1, followed by a 10-day washout before receiving GSK'254 200 mg once daily from Days 11 to 20 and a single dose of cocktail + GSK'254 200 mg on Day 21. Geometric least-squares mean ratios and 90% confidence intervals were obtained using linear mixed-effects models. Adverse events (AEs) were monitored. RESULTS Of 20 participants enrolled, 19 completed the study. Plasma concentrations of all cocktail substrates were generally similar with or without GSK'254 co-administration. All 90% confidence intervals around geometric least-squares mean ratios for cocktail substrate PK parameters indicated no to weak interactions. Steady-state plasma GSK'254 concentrations were achieved by Day 17 and maintained through Day 21. Nine participants (45%) reported 17 AEs; most (88%) were grade 1. Two grade 2 treatment-related AEs (maculopapular rash [leading to withdrawal] and papular rash) were reported during GSK'254 administration alone. CONCLUSIONS Co-administration of GSK'254 with a metabolic probe cocktail in healthy participants indicated very low risk of clinically relevant effect on PK of any substrates or associated metabolites. No new safety/tolerability concerns were identified. These results support ongoing phase IIb and planned phase III studies of GSK'254 in people living with HIV-1.

Drug-drug interactions that alter the exposure of glucuronidated drugs: Scope, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzyme selectivity, mechanisms (inhibition and induction), and clinical significance. Pharmacol Ther 2023:108459. [PMID: 37263383 DOI: 10.1016/j.pharmthera.2023.108459] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 05/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/03/2023]
Abstract
Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) arising from the perturbation of drug metabolising enzyme activities represent both a clinical problem and a potential economic loss for the pharmaceutical industry. DDIs involving glucuronidated drugs have historically attracted little attention and there is a perception that interactions are of minor clinical relevance. This review critically examines the scope and aetiology of DDIs that result in altered exposure of glucuronidated drugs. Interaction mechanisms, namely inhibition and induction of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) enzymes and the potential interplay with drug transporters, are reviewed in detail, as is the clinical significance of known DDIs. Altered victim drug exposure arising from modulation of UGT enzyme activities is relatively common and, notably, the incidence and importance of UGT induction as a DDI mechanism is greater than generally believed. Numerous DDIs are clinically relevant, resulting in either loss of efficacy or an increased risk of adverse effects, necessitating dose individualisation. Several generalisations relating to the likelihood of DDIs can be drawn from the known substrate and inhibitor selectivities of UGT enzymes, highlighting the importance of comprehensive reaction phenotyping studies at an early stage of drug development. Further, rigorous assessment of the DDI liability of new chemical entities that undergo glucuronidation to a significant extent has been recommended recently by regulatory guidance. Although evidence-based approaches exist for the in vitro characterisation of UGT enzyme inhibition and induction, the availability of drugs considered appropriate for use as 'probe' substrates in clinical DDI studies is limited and this should be research priority.

Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:pharmaceutics15020521. [PMID: 36839843 PMCID: PMC9965536 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15020521] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023] Open
Abstract
A strategy followed to integrate in vitro solubility and permeability data into a PBBM model to predict the food effect of a BCS IV zwitterionic drug (GSK3640254) observed in clinical studies is described. The PBBM model was developed, qualified and verified using clinical data of an immediate release (IR)-tablet (10-320 mg) obtained in healthy volunteers under fasted and fed conditions. The solubility of GSK3640254 was a function of its ionization state, the media composition and pH, whereas its permeability determined using MDCK cell lines was enhanced by the presence of mixed micelles. In vitro data alongside PBBM modelling suggested that the positive food effect observed in the clinical studies was attributed to micelle-mediated enhanced solubility and permeability. The biorelevant media containing oleic acid and cholesterol in fasted and fed levels enabled the model to appropriately capture the magnitude of the food effect. Thus, by using Simcyp® v20 software, the PBBM model accurately predicted the results of the food effect and predicted data were within a two-fold error with 70% being within 1.25-fold. The developed model strategy can be effectively adopted to increase the confidence of using PBBM models to predict the food effect of BCS class IV drugs.
