Abstract
KW-6356 is a selective antagonist and inverse agonist of the adenosine A2A receptor. The primary aim of the present analysis was to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of KW-6356 and its active metabolite M6 in healthy subjects and patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). We pooled concentration-time data from healthy subjects and patients with PD who were administered KW-6356. Using these data, we developed a population PK model by sequentially fitting the KW-6356 parameters followed by the M6 parameters. A first-order absorption with a 1-compartment model for KW-6356 and a 1-compartment model for M6 best described the profiles. The covariates included in the final models were food status (fed/fasted/unknown) on first-order absorption rate constant, baseline serum albumin level on apparent clearance of KW-6356, and baseline body weight on apparent volume of distribution of KW-6356 and apparent clearance of M6. No covariate had a clinically meaningful impact on KW-6356 or M6 exposure.

Abstract
ABSTRACT This study evaluated perampanel pharmacokinetics and cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) activity, assessed using the level of 4β-hydroxycholesterol (4β-OHC) as an endogenous biomarker of CYP3A4, before, during, and after pregnancy in a woman with epilepsy and compared these measurements with those from a control group of nonpregnant women with epilepsy. A 21-year-old pregnant woman was being treated with perampanel (serum concentration: 1120 ng/mL), lacosamide, and lamotrigine. After the first trimester, the lamotrigine concentration decreased markedly; however, the perampanel concentration remained almost unchanged (range, 1130-1320 ng/mL). Similarly, serum 4β-OHC levels did not change during pregnancy (before pregnancy, 78.2 ng/mL; during pregnancy, 62.2-83.2 ng/mL). To compare these measurements with those in nonpregnant women, we enrolled 27 nonpregnant women with epilepsy (age range, 16-40 years). In the control patients, we found a strong negative correlation between the concentration-to-dose ratio of perampanel and the 4β-OHC level (r = -0.78, P < 0.001). As there was no significant change in CYP3A4 activity, we concluded that the serum perampanel concentration did not change significantly before, during, or after pregnancy. More patients need to be studied to confirm these early results.

Abstract
C-H bond amination is an effective way to obtain nitrogen-containing products. In this work, we demonstrate that myoglobin reconstituted with iron porphycene (rMb(FePc)) catalyzes intramolecular C(sp3)-H bond amination of arylsulfonyl azides to yield corresponding sultam analogs. The total turnover number of rMb(FePc) is up to 5.7 × 104 for the C-H bond amination of 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzenesulfonyl azide. Moreover, rMb(FePc) exhibits higher selectivity for the desired C-H bond amination than the competing azide reduction compared to native myoglobin. Kinetic studies reveal that the kcat value of rMb(FePc) is 4-fold higher than that of native myoglobin. Furthermore, H64A, H64V and H64I mutants of rMb(FePc) enhance the turnover number (TON) and enantioselectivity for the C-H bond amination of 2,4,6-triethylbenzenesulfonyl azide. The present findings indicate that iron porphycene is an attractive artificial cofactor for myoglobin toward the C-H bond amination reaction.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the time-course changes in lamotrigine (LTG) concentration after addition of valproate (VPA) and the safety and tolerability of the combination therapy. We reviewed our therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) database and found 345 patients on LTG who received add-on therapy with VPA. VPA had been added at least 12 weeks after patients finished stepwise LTG titration. Also, we retrospectively evaluated the LTG concentration after addition of VPA and the safety and long-term tolerability of LTG-VPA combination therapy. Plasma LTG concentration increased more than 1.5-fold within 15 d of addition of VPA and reached a peak at 30 d. The rate of increase in LTG concentration occurred in a VPA concentration-dependent manner. During the first 120 d after addition of VPA, adverse events were reported by 58 patients (16.8%), but no patient developed cutaneous reactions. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed estimated retention rates for LTG-VPA combination therapy of 74.5% at 5 years. At 5 years, the mean concentration of LTG was 11.1 µg/mL (43.3 µmol/L). Because addition of VPA leads to a marked increase in LTG concentration over a short period, TDM for LTG should be performed at the earliest from 14 d after starting VPA. At 120 d after starting VPA therapy, the higher LTG concentration due to addition of VPA is not associated with an increased risk of cutaneous reactions. Although LTG-VPA combination therapy increases LTG concentration, it is well tolerated and has a high long-term retention rate.

Abstract
KW-6356 is an adenosine A2A receptor-selective antagonist and inverse agonist. We conducted 2 studies: study 6356-001 (no NCT number), a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 1 trial of single ascending (1, 3, 10 mg) and multiple (6 mg once daily) oral doses of KW-6356 in healthy Japanese subjects; and study 6356-004 (NCT03830528), including a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 1 trial of single ascending (21, 42, 60 mg) and multiple (24 mg once daily) oral doses of KW-6356, and a phase 1 open-label trial of multiple oral doses (6 mg once daily) of KW-6356 in healthy Japanese and White subjects, to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of KW-6356. KW-6356 was well tolerated after administration of single doses of up to 60 mg and multiple doses of up to 24 mg once daily for 14 days. The pharmacokinetics of KW-6356 were linear after a single dose of up to 60 mg KW-6356. The mean terminal elimination half-life of KW-6356 ranged from 18.4 to 43.1 hours following administration of single doses of 1-60 mg. There was no clear difference in the safety or pharmacokinetics of KW-6356 between healthy Japanese and White subjects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) and regorafenib (REG) are standard therapies for refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). No results of large real-world data directly comparing FTD/TPI + bevacizumab (BEV) with FTD/TPI or REG monotherapy have been reported. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of FTD/TPI + BEV in a real-world setting. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective study used a Japanese claims database provided by Medical Data Vision Co., Ltd. (Tokyo, Japan). Eligible patients were aged 20 years and over with a diagnosis of mCRC, and received their first dose of FTD/TPI or REG from 2014 to 2021. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) in a propensity score matching (PSM) population in which PSM was carried out by matching using a 1 : 1 ratio for the FTD/TPI + BEV group and the control group (FTD/TPI or REG) by propensity score. To enhance robustness, sensitivity analyses of OS were carried out using the inverse probability treatment weighted (IPTW) approach and the analysis in the all eligible population. Secondary endpoints included time to treatment discontinuation (TTD), incidence of adverse events, and post-treatment. RESULTS Eligible population was 2369 for the FTD/TPI + BEV group and 9318 for the control group. The PSM population was 1787 for each group. Median OS (mOS) was longer in the FTD/TPI + BEV group compared to the control group [17.0 versus 11.6 months, hazard ratio (HR) = 0.70, P < 0.001] in the PSM population. Similarly, mOS was longer for the FTD/TPI + BEV group compared to that for the control group in IPTW analyses and in the all eligible population (both HRs = 0.68). Median TTD was 3.3 months for the FTD/TPI + BEV group and 1.8 months for the control group in the PSM population (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Real-world data showed that FTD/TPI + BEV was significantly associated with OS and TTD compared to FTD/TPI or REG. In clinical practice, FTD/TPI + BEV can be a favorable regimen for refractory mCRC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the annual incidence and risk factors of hyponatremia in pediatric, adult, and older adult patients with epilepsy. METHODS We enrolled 26,179 patients: 8598 pediatric patients (aged 0-15 years), 16,476 adults (aged 16-64 years), and 1105 older adults (aged ≥65 years). Patients were included if their serum sodium levels were measured between January 2006 and December 2020. Moderate-severe hyponatremia was defined as a serum sodium level of less than 130 mEq/L. RESULTS From 2006 to 2020, 677 patients (2.6%) developed moderate-severe hyponatremia. The incidence of hyponatremia per 1000 person-years was 3.1 in the pediatric group, 19.8 in the adult group, and 50.4 in the older adult group. The incidence increased markedly from 36.8 in 2007 to 58.5 in 2020 in the older adult group but remained unchanged in the adult group and tended to decrease in the pediatric group. In the multiple logistic regression model, use of carbamazepine, valproate, phenytoin, phenobarbital, benzodiazepines, and antipsychotics was found to be a significant risk factor for hyponatremia. In adult patients, carbamazepine, benzodiazepine, and antipsychotics induced hyponatremia in a dose-dependent manner. Concomitant use of zonisamide reduced the risk of hyponatremia. SIGNIFICANCE Hyponatremia will become an increasingly important concern in clinical settings because the population of epilepsy patients is aging. Serum sodium levels should be monitored carefully when patients are receiving first-generation antiseizure medications or antipsychotics or combinations of these drugs. Our findings may help to minimize the risk of hyponatremia in epilepsy patients.

Abstract
The lipid composition and organization of the stratum corneum (SC) in patients with psoriasis and healthy subjects were compared using X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and ultraperformance liquid chromatography, combined with time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-TOFMS). In healthy SC (HSC), SC lipids formed two lamellar phases (long and short periodicity phases). Hexagonal and orthorhombic hydrocarbon-chain packing were observed in the lateral lipid organization at 30°C via X-ray diffraction. In HSC, the lamellar phases and the hydrocarbon-chain packing organizations changed with elevated temperatures and finally disappeared. In these behaviors, the high-temperature hexagonal hydrocarbon-chain packing organization, which appeared above the orthorhombic hydrocarbon-chain packing organization, transformed to the liquid phase at about 90°C in HSC and at about 65°C in psoriatic SC (PSC). Therefore, PSC undergoes a structural transformation at a lower temperature than HSC. Disorder of the hydrocarbon-chain packing of SC lipids was also observed in PSC via FT-IR. In UPLC-TOFMS, free fatty acid (FFA) and ceramide (CER) compositions differed between patients with PSC and HSC. Specifically, the levels of ultra-long chain fatty acids containing CER and phytosphingosine-containing CER were decreased, while those of sphingosine and dihydrosphingosine-containing CER and unsaturated FFA were increased in PSC patients. Furthermore, FFA and CER carbon chain lengths decreased in patients with PSC. These results suggest that the alteration of SC lipid composition and the reduction of carbon chain lengths in PSC lowered the structural transformation temperature, thereby reducing barrier function.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effects of low-dose titration on the tolerability and safety of perampanel. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the records of 1065 patients who started perampanel therapy and compared the incidence of adverse events after standard titration (Group A: starting dose, 2 mg/day; titration speed, 2 mg/2 weeks or longer) and low-dose titration (Group B: starting dose, < 1 mg/day; titration speed, < 1 mg/2 weeks or longer). RESULTS Adverse events were reported in 158 patients (14.8%) within the initial first 90 days of starting perampanel (mean concentration, 331 ng/mL). At 90 days, the cumulative incidence of adverse events was significantly higher in Group A than in Group B (24.5% vs. 16.3%, respectively; log-rank test p < 0.001). A Cox proportional hazards model also showed that low-dose titration decreased the incidence risk of adverse events (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.49; 95% confidence interval, 0.35-0.69). When the groups were stratified by use of enzyme-inducing antiseizure medications (inducers), Group A patients without inducers had a significantly higher cumulative incidence of adverse events than the other three subgroups (26.7%, p < 0.001). In patients taking 2 mg of perampanel, median concentrations in patients with or without inducers were 43 ng/mL and 204 ng/mL, respectively. CONCLUSION Perampanel is generally initiated at 2 mg, but serum perampanel concentrations show substantial interindividual variation. Our study suggests that care must be taken when setting the starting dose of perampanel. In particular, low-dose titration is recommended in patients not taking inducers.

Abstract
Comprehensive analyses of intracellular disposition and in vivo pharmacokinetics were performed for small interfering RNA (siRNA) conjugated with the Fab fragment of panitumumab, a fully humanized monoclonal antibody against epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). The Fab-siRNA conjugate was internalized into EGFR-expressing cancer cells in an antigen-dependent manner. Intracellular disposition was quantitatively evaluated using fluorescent-labeled panitumumab and confocal microscopy. The majority of internalized panitumumab was suggested to be transferred into lysosomes. In vivo pharmacokinetics were evaluated in EGFR-expressing tumor-bearing mice. Intact Fab-siRNA was measured by immunoprecipitation using anti-Fab antibody followed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The Fab portion was measured by a ligand binding assay. Intact Fab-siRNA concentrations rapidly decreased in the plasma and tumor, although the Fab portion concentration remained high, suggesting extensive degradation in the linker-siRNA portion. After incubation of Fab-siRNA in mouse plasma, samples were digested with proteinase K, and extracted siRNA tagged with Fab-derived peptide was subjected to an ion-pair reversed-phase liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry analysis. Results suggested that hydrolysis from the 3' end of the antisense strand of siRNA is the major metabolizing pathway. Based on these findings, endosomal escape and stability in lysosomes, blood, and tumor are key factors to improve to achieve efficient target gene knockdown in tumors, and stabilizing the 3' end of the antisense strand was suggested to be most efficient. Our approaches clearly identified the key issues of Fab-siRNA from a pharmacokinetics aspect, which will be useful for improving the in vivo activity of siRNA conjugated with not only Fab but also other immunoproteins. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: The intracellular and in vivo disposition of Fab-small interfering RNA (siRNA) conjugate was comprehensively investigated using various approaches, including newly developed analytical methods. This study clearly shows that improvements in siRNA stability in lysosomes, blood, and tumor are needed for target gene knockdown in tumors. The major metabolic pathway of Fab-siRNA is 3' exonuclease degradation, suggesting that optimization of the conjugation site to Fab might help improve stability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Manipulation of tablets or capsules is frequently carried out in pharmacies to regulate doses for personalised therapy. We proposed the use of reconstructed granules as a suitable, flexible dosage form and developed an on-site granulation method using a compounding mixer. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of small-scale preparation of granules in a pharmacy setting. Rifampicin capsules were used as a model medicine because of the associated need for drug desensitisation therapy. METHODS The contents of a rifampicin capsule were granulated using a compounding mixer, and small ointment containers (12 mL) with filling rates of 4%, 8%, 12%, and 16% were used as granulation vessels. The obtained granules were examined for particle size distribution, yield, crystal transition, drug dissolution profile, storage stability, and weight loss during dosing. RESULTS The yields increased by >95%, and the span of the particle size distribution decreased to 1.0, as the filling rate increased. The smallest batch size was found to be 0.8 g in a 12 mL vessel. Examination of the resultant granules revealed that granulation did not affect the crystal polymorphism, dissolution profile, or storage stability of rifampicin. Furthermore, the weight loss of the granules during the dosing process was significantly lower than that of the capsule powder content. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that granules with sufficient quality for clinical use could be extemporaneously prepared using a compounding mixer in pharmacies. This improved the usability of the medicine, preventing weight loss, and making it a suitable alternative formulation for precise personalised pharmacotherapy.

Abstract
The most common treatment option for patients with bullous pemphigoid is systemic corticosteroids. CYP3A4, a drug-metabolizing enzyme in the liver, metabolizes synthetic steroids to a varying degree. Although there are many CYP3A4-inducing drugs, several antiepileptic drugs, such as phenytoin and phenobarbital, strongly induce CYP3A4, thereby reducing the effects of corticosteroids. Here, we report a case of refractory bullous pemphigoid that rapidly improved after the discontinuation of phenytoin and phenobarbital. To achieve adequate pharmacological effects of corticosteroids, we must always ensure that patients who require corticosteroids for treatment are not medicated with CYP3A4-inducing agents.

Abstract
In planetary centrifugal wet granulation, the binder is often mixed into the formulation as a powder, followed by the addition of a wetting liquid, in a single step. Therefore, the amount and dispersion of the wetting liquid are important factors that determining granulation success and granules characteristics. In this study, granulation experiments, according to the Box-Behnken design, were performed. Further, the effects of equipment parameters, namely, processing speed, processing time, and vessel size, on the minimum amount of wetting liquid required to enable granulation and dispersion state in the vessel were statistically analyzed. Placebo granules were formulated with lactose hydrate and corn starch (7 : 3), using sodium carmellose as a binder. Results showed that the amount of wetting liquid decreased with increase in processing speed, processing time, and vessel size; however, the dispersion state of the wetting liquid was not significantly affected. Analysis of the effects of the equipment parameters on granule characteristics showed that a larger vessel size was proportional to a larger median diameter and smaller particle-size distribution width (span), and a faster processing speed was proportional to a smaller span. Furthermore, granules with the target properties could be prepared according to the parameters estimated from the model. In conclusion, the equipment parameters for controlling the amount of wetting liquid, which affected the granule properties, were clarified.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purposes of this study were to assess drug interactions between rufinamide and concomitant antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) and to identify the therapeutic window for rufinamide. METHODS Serum samples (n = 1531) were obtained from 178 patients (aged 2-57 years), and clinical records were retrospectively reviewed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of rufinamide (mean observation time, 1073 ± 846 days). RESULTS Rufinamide exhibited linear pharmacokinetics at doses of up to 60 mg/kg (range, 50-3200 mg/d). Concomitant use of the enzyme-inducing AEDs such as phenytoin, carbamazepine, and phenobarbital reduced rufinamide concentrations by 43.4%, 13.2%, and 30.3%, respectively. By contrast, concomitant use of valproate significantly elevated rufinamide concentrations. Clinical response was seen in 41 patients (23.0%), with a median therapeutic concentration (interquartile range) of 20.6 mcg/mL (13.3-27.0). There was no difference in the therapeutic concentrations between seizure types, but patients with tonic/atonic seizures tended to have higher rufinamide concentrations. During the study period, adverse events were reported in 64 patients (35.8%), including somnolence, gastrointestinal disorders, dizziness, and irritability/behavior disorders. Conditional logistic regression analysis showed that patients administered a concentration greater than 20 mcg/mL had an 8.6-fold higher incidence of adverse events. CONCLUSIONS Therapeutic drug monitoring for rufinamide is clinically useful for predicting drug interactions between rufinamide and concomitant AEDs. When a patient has tonic/atonic seizures, careful titration is required for concentrations greater than 20 mcg/mL.

Abstract
A granulation method using a planetary centrifugal mixer, called planetary centrifugal granulation, has been developed for small-scale production, such as extemporaneous preparation in pharmacies. Although the impact of its operational parameters on granulation is described, the scale effect has not been investigated. Therefore, we aimed to reveal the effects of vessel size and vessel filling rate on granule properties. In this study, ibuprofen 20% granules consisting of lactose, cornstarch, sodium carmellose, and talc were used as model granules. Granulation was performed using geometrically similar containers, 6-58 mL, with a filling rate of 20-70%. After granulation, we monitored the granule properties, for example, median diameter (d50), span of particle size distribution, and sphericity. At filling rates of 40% and 50% in the 58-mL vessel, the granules grew larger in diameter, and at a rate of 30%, the granules showed a higher sphericity. When the filling rate was 30%, d50 became larger and the span decreased as the vessel size increased. The yields of the granules were higher than 95% when using the 12-58 mL vessel. Lastly, the drug content uniformity and drug dissolution behavior of the granules produced in different vessel size were examined. The granules showed similar drug consistencies and drug dissolution profiles. In conclusion, the quality of the products was not affected by changes in vessel size. Thus, pharmacists could prepare and compound the granule formulations with high yield and appropriate quality using an adequate vessel in the same manner.

Abstract
Background/Aims The behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) detract from the quality of life of not only dementia patients but also their family members and caregivers. Donepezil is used to treat Alzheimer's disease and is metabolized via cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2D6 and CYP3A4/5. It is controversial whether donepezil improves or exacerbates BPSD. This study investigated the relationships among BPSD, the pharmacokinetics of donepezil including its metabolite, 6-O-desmethyl donepezil, genetic polymorphisms of CYPs and P-glycoprotein, and patient backgrounds in 52 patients with Alzheimer's disease. Methods BPSD were assessed using the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI), with scores ≥20 points defined as severe BPSD. Plasma donepezil and 6-O-desmethyl donepezil concentrations were measured using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. Results Although significant relationships between NPI scores and plasma donepezil concentrations were not seen, none of the 15 patients (29%) with high plasma donepezil concentrations (≥60 ng/mL) developed severe BPSD. Polymorphisms of CYP2D6, CYP3A5, and ABCB1 did not influence NPI scores. There were no significant relationships between NPI and patient background factors such as dosing regimen, concomitant use of other drugs, or laboratory test results. Two patients who underwent multiple blood samplings over 2 years showed an inverse correlation between plasma donepezil concentrations and NPI scores. Discussion/Conclusions These results indicate that higher plasma concentrations of donepezil contribute to preventing or alleviating rather than developing or deteriorating BPSD.

Abstract
Background Azelnidipine, a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (CCB), has less adverse effects (e.g. hot flushes and reflex tachycardia) compared to other dihydropyridine CCBs. Azelnidipine has been reported to reduce heart rate as opposed to inducing tachycardia. No evidence of bradycardia or complete atrioventricular block (CAVB) with azelnidipine treatment has been reported. Case presentation In the present study, a 92-year-old woman was diagnosed with CAVB while taking azelnidipine and simvastatin for an extended period of time, and referred to our medical center. It was thought that the CAVB may have been an adverse effect of azelnidipine treatment. Specifically, it was considered that in this patient, one of the causes might be the concomitant use of simvastatin inhibiting the metabolism of azelnidipine by cytochrome P450 enzyme 3A4. Consequently, it was suggested to the patient’s physician that the patient’s serum azelnidipine levels be measured and treatment with azelnidipine and simvastatin be discontinued. The patient’s serum concentration of azelnidipine at the time of her visit to our center was 63.4 ng/mL, higher than the normal acceptable level. There was no occurrence of CAVB for 4 weeks, to present, following discontinuation of azelnidipine and simvastatin treatment. Conclusions Azelnidipine has a different mechanism of action that other CCBs. In very rare cases, it may cause CAVB when combined with CYP3A4 inhibitors. If a patient taking azelnidipine is diagnosed with CAVB, physicians should suspect that the condition may be an adverse effect of azelnidipine and should consider discontinuing azelnidipine. And, in the elderly, it is necessary to avoid concomitant use of CYP3A4 inhibitors.

Abstract
This study investigated the impact of polymorphisms of metabolic enzymes on plasma concentrations of cilostazol and its metabolites, and the influence of the plasma concentrations and polymorphisms on the cardiovascular side effects in 30 patients with cerebral infarction. Plasma concentrations of cilostazol and its active metabolites, and CYP3A5*3 and CYP2C19*2 and *3 genotypes were determined. The median plasma concentration/dose ratio of OPC-13213, an active metabolite by CYP3A5 and CYP2C19, was slightly higher and the median plasma concentration rate of cilostazol to OPC-13015, another active metabolite by CYP3A4, was significantly lower in CYP3A5*1 carriers than in *1 non-carriers (p = 0.082 and p = 0.002, respectively). The CYP2C19 genotype did not affect the pharmacokinetics of cilostazol. A correlation was observed between changes in pulse rate from the baseline and plasma concentrations of cilostazol (R = 0.539, p = 0.002), OPC-13015 (R = 0.396, p = 0.030) and OPC-13213 (R = 0.383, p = 0.037). A multiple regression model, consisting of factors of the plasma concentration of OPC-13015, levels of blood urea nitrogen, and pulse rate at the start of the therapy explained 55.5% of the interindividual variability of the changes in pulse rate. These results suggest that plasma concentrations of cilostazol and its metabolites are affected by CYP3A5 genotypes, and plasma concentration of OPC-13015, blood urea nitrogen, and pulse rate at the start of therapy may be predictive markers of cardiovascular side effects of cilostazol in patients with cerebral infarction.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify the risk factors for psychiatric adverse effects associated with perampanel therapy. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the adverse effects of perampanel by reviewing clinical records from 895 Japanese patients with epilepsy (aged 1-86 years) who started perampanel therapy at National Epilepsy Center, Shizuoka, Japan, between June 2016 and December 2019. Patients were classified into 3 groups: those without adverse effects (Group I), those with psychiatric adverse effects (Group II), and those with common adverse effects (Group III). RESULTS The number of patients assigned to each group was as follows: Group I, n = 641; Group II, n = 93; and Group III, n = 161. The mean follow-up period was 458 ± 265 days (median, 511 days). Kaplan-Meier survival estimates showed that the median time to treatment failure was shorter in Group II than in Group III (294 vs. 392 days, respectively; log-rank test, p < 0.001). According to polytomous logistic regression, younger age (<16 years) was associated with a lower risk of common and psychiatric adverse effects. The risk factors for psychiatric adverse effects (Group II) were intellectual disability (adjusted odds ratio [AOR], 2.6; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.5-4.5) and psychiatric comorbidity (AOR, 3.8; 95% CI, 2.3-6.3); in patients with intellectual disability, the occurrence of psychiatric adverse effects was concentration dependent. Patients with lamotrigine use had a 0.54-fold lower risk of psychiatric adverse effects. In Group III, concomitant use of inducers was associated with a decreased risk of common adverse effects (AOR, 0.68; 95% CI, 0.46-0.99). SIGNIFICANCE We found clear differences in the risk factors for psychiatric adverse effects. In patients with intellectual disability, care must be taken when titrating perampanel, and therapeutic drug monitoring should be performed.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In Japanese guidelines, target value of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) <100mg/dL is recommended as standard management for secondary prevention of coronary artery disease. On the other hand, the guidelines also state that LDL-C targeting <70mg/dL should be considered in high-risk patients. However, the effectiveness of strict LDL-C management in the prevention of long-term coronary event recurrence in Japanese patients remains unclear.
Purpose
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether the strict management of LDL-C targeting <70 mg/dL was effective to prevent recurrence of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) than standard management in patients with previous percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods
From January 2007 to August 2020, we performed coronary angiography in 359 patients with previous PCI who were suspected of having signs of recurrent cardiac ischemia. Patients were stratified into three groups according to achieved LDL-C value; <70mg/dL (n=57), 70 to <100mg/dL (n=135) and ≥100mg/dL (n=167). In addition, patients who had previous ACS and/or diabetes mellitus were defined as high-risk group, and sub-analysis by their achieved LDL-C values was performed in high-risk group and non-high-risk group. Endpoint was recurrence of ACS. Moreover, risk factors associated with recurrent-ACS were examined in patients with LDL-C <100 mg/dL.
Results
After follow-up (median 6.1 years), 99 patients (28%) had recurrent-ACS. Recurrent-ACS was significantly lower in patients with LDL-C <70mg/dL than LDL-C 70 to <100mg/dL and LDL-C ≥100mg/dL (p<0.01 and p<0.001, respectively). In sub-analysis, high-risk group with LDL-C <70 mg/dL had lower incidence of recurrent-ACS than LDL-C 70 to <100 mg/dL (p=0.03). Similar tendency was found in non-high-risk group (p=0.08). There was no difference of recurrent-ACS between high-risk group and non-high-risk group in patients with LDL-C <70mg/dL (p=0.41). Moreover, in patients with achieved LDL-C <100mg/dL (n=192), multivariate analysis identified that LDL-C (HR: 1.032, p<0.01) and HbA1c (HR: 1.330, p<0.01) were independent predictors of recurrent-ACS. In these patients, whether or not they were in the high-risk group was not a significant predictor (p=0.61).
Conclusions
Strict management of LDL-C targeting <70 mg/dL should be considered for a wider range of Japanese patients as well as for Westerners to prevent recurrence of ACS in secondary prevention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent advances in adjuvant chemotherapy for early colon cancer have widened physicians' recommendations on the regimen and duration (3 or 6 months) of the treatment. We conducted this prospective study to evaluate whether the 12-gene recurrence score (12-RS) assay affected physicians' recommendations on adjuvant treatment selection. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with stage IIIA/IIIB or stage II colon cancer were enrolled. After the patients discussed adjuvant treatment with their treating physicians, the physicians filled in the questionnaire before assay indicating the treatment recommendation. When the 12-RS assay results were available, the physicians again filled in the questionnaire after assay. The primary endpoint was the rate of change in treatment recommendations from before to after the assay, with a threshold rate of change being 20%. Patients with stage IIIA/B to II were enrolled in a ratio of 2 : 1. RESULTS Overall, the treatment recommendations changed in 40% of cases after obtaining 12-RS assay results. Recommendations were changed in 45% (80/178; 95% confidence interval, 37% to 53%; P < 0.001) and 30% (29/97; 95% confidence interval, 21% to 40%; P < 0.001) of patients with stage IIIA/B and II colon cancer, respectively. Patients with stage IIIA/B cancer had significantly more change than those with stage II cancer (P = 0.0148). From before to after the 12-RS assay, the percentage of patients whose physicians reported being confident in their treatment recommendations significantly increased from 54% to 81% in stage IIIA/B (P < 0.001) and from 65% to 83% in stage II (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our study confirmed the usefulness of the 12-RS assay in aiding the physician-patient decision-making process for tailoring adjuvant chemotherapy for stage IIIA/B colon cancer.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate novel polyglycerol fatty acid ester (PGFE)-based nanoparticles (NPs) for the dermal delivery of tocopherol acetate (TA). TA-loaded PGFE-based NPs (PGFE-NPs) were prepared by mixing PGFE, soya phosphatidylcholine, dimyristoylphosphatidylglycerol, and TA with film using the film rehydration and extrusion method. The prepared formulations were analyzed by dynamic light scattering, small-angle X-ray diffraction and polarization microscopy. An in vitro skin accumulation test was performed with TA under occlusive and non-occlusive applications, using Yucatan micropig skin. The size range of the TA-loaded liposome and PGFE-NPs was 107-128 nm, and they were encapsulated in 1.6-2.3 mg/mL TA. All PGFE-NP formulations were negatively charged and stable for 2 weeks. Under occlusive applications, all formulations induced small amounts of TA accumulation in the epidermis but not in the dermis. However, under non-occlusive applications, some of PGFE-NP formulations enhanced TA accumulation in the epidermis. Furthermore, only the polyglycerol 4-laurate (PG4L)-based formulation induced dermal TA accumulation with the change in the formulation from a vesicular to bilayer stacked structure following water evaporation under non-occlusive applications. These results indicated that the novel TA-loaded PG4L formulation enabled the dermal delivery of TA in non-occlusive applications.

Abstract
Background
In secondary prevention of coronary artery disease, target value of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) <100 mg/dL is recommended as standard management in Japanese guideline. The guideline also stated that strict management of LDL-C targeting <70 mg/dL is considered in some high risk patients. However, in Japanese patients, effectiveness of more strict management of LDL-C lowering therapy for prevention of long-term cardiovascular events remains unclear.
Purpose
The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether the strict management of LDL-C targeting <70 mg/dL was effective to prevent recurrence of long-term coronary events than standard management in patients with previous percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
Methods
We investigated 344 patients with previous PCI who underwent late coronary angiography to examine recurrence of cardiac ischemia beyond the early phase of restenosis from January 2007 to August 2019. Patients were stratified into three groups according to achieved LDL-C value; LDL-C <70mg/dL (n=53), 70 to <100mg/dL (n=130) and ≥100mg/dL (n=161). Endpoints of this study were recurrence of cardiac ischemia presenting as acute coronary syndrome (recurrence-ACS) and any late coronary revascularization.
Results
During average 7.1 years follow-up, 200 patients (58%) underwent any late coronary revascularization. In 94 of those patients, recurrence-ACS was observed. The incidence of recurrence-ACS was significantly lower in patients with achieved LDL-C <70mg/dL than in those with LDL-C 70 to <100mg/dL and LDL-C ≥100mg/dL (p=0.009 and p=0.001, respectively), however, there was no difference between patients with LDL-C 70 to <100mg/dL and LDL-C ≥100mg/dL (p=0.140). Any late revascularization was significantly lower in patients with achieved LDL-C <70mg/dL and in those with LDL-C 70 to <100mg/dL than in those with LDL-C ≥100mg/dL (p=0.002 and p<0.001, respectively), however, no difference was found between patients with LDL-C <70mg/dL and LDL-C 70 to <100mg/dL (p=0.119). Moreover, in patients with achieved LDL-C <100mg/dL (n=183), multivariate analysis identified that LDL-C (HR 1.035, p=0.007) and HbA1c (HR 1.338, p=0.001) were independent predictors of recurrence-ACS. In contrast, only using statins (HR 0.461, p=0.009) was an independent predictor of recurrence-ACS in patients with achieved LDL-C ≥100mg/dL.
Conclusions
LDL-C was the important residual risk of recurrence-ACS even after recommended standard LDL-C lowering management had been achieved. More strict management of LDL-C targeting to <70mg/dL should be considered to prevent recurrence-ACS for wider range of Japanese patients in secondary prevention.

Abstract
Dantrolene capsule, an effective therapeutic agent for the treatment of spasticity, is administered to children who cannot swallow the capsule after reformulation into a powder. The powdered drug can alter the specified dosage and it is also difficult to dispense the powdered formulation because of its bulky and sticky nature. To resolve these problems, we reformulated dantrolene capsules into granules using a centrifugal planetary mixer in the pharmacy. The granules containing lactose-cornstarch, D-mannitol, or microcrystalline cellulose as a diluent were examined to determine particle size distribution, flowability, drug content uniformity, and disintegration time. The granules with microcrystalline cellulose were superior to the other forms, owing to their smaller size, good drug content uniformity, and rapid disintegration. We further investigated the usability of the granules in the dispensing procedure (dividing and packing) and in the dosing process (retrieval from package) using the powders as controls. The deviation of the divided amount and loss on dosing were reduced relative to the powders. In addition, drug dissolution properties and storage stability for 12 months were the same as those of the powders. Therefore, we concluded that dantrolene granules are excellent alternatives as an extemporaneous preparation in pharmacies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lacosamide is a novel anticonvulsant that acts by enhancing sodium channel slow inactivation. The aims of this study were to evaluate the influence of concomitant antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) on serum lacosamide concentration and explore the relationship between lacosamide serum concentration and both clinical response and adverse effects. METHODS The authors analyzed 649 serum samples from 426 Japanese patients with epilepsy. The concentration-to-dose (CD) ratio of lacosamide was compared among patients on various AED regimens. Clinical information about seizure frequency and adverse events was obtained from clinical records. RESULTS In patients who did not receive enzyme-inducing AEDs, the CD ratio (mean ± SD) of lacosamide was 1.84 ± 0.68. By contrast, the CD ratio in patients who received phenytoin, carbamazepine, and phenobarbital was 1.42 ± 0.66 (22.8% lower), 1.46 ± 0.40 (20.7% lower), and 1.36 ± 0.38 (26.1% lower), respectively. Seventy-four patients (17.3%) achieved >50% seizure reduction. The median lacosamide concentration in patients who received and did not receive a sodium channel blocker was 6.6 mcg/mL (26.4 μmol/L) and 8.4 mcg/mL (33.6 μmol/L), respectively. Adverse events, including dizziness, somnolence, diplopia, and anorexia, were reported by 70 patients (16.4%). The incidence rate in patients treated with sodium channel blockers was significantly higher than that in patients not treated with these drugs (21.1% vs. 10.3%; P < 0.005), and the median lacosamide concentration in these patient groups was 5.1 (20.4 μmol/L) and 7.5 mcg/mL (30 μmol/L), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Therapeutic drug monitoring of lacosamide is clinically useful because it allows physicians to estimate the extent of drug interactions and adjust the dose in individual AED regimens.

Abstract
PURPOSE Erlotinib, an inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase, causes skin disorders such as dry skin, which impairs the skin barrier function. Stratum corneum (SC) lipids play an important role in skin barrier function; therefore, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between erlotinib-related dry skin and changes in the intercellular lipid composition and structure of the SC. METHODS Overall, 21 patients with non-small lung cancer were enrolled in this study. All patients received 150 mg/day erlotinib orally. A SC sample of each patient was collected from the inner forearm using the tape stripping method on days 0, 7, 14, 28, and 56 after erlotinib administration. The intercellular lipid components of ceramide (CER), free fatty acid (FFA), and cholesterol sulfate (CS) in samples extracted from the tape were analyzed using liquid chromatography/time-of-flight/mass spectrometry. SC samples from six healthy subjects were collected as controls on days 0, 28 and 56 and analyzed similarly. RESULTS Although total CER and FFA levels were not changed after erlotinib administration, the levels of CER subclasses [AP] and [AH] and hydroxy FFA, which are structural components of CER subclass [A], decreased. In contrast, the CS levels increased after erlotinib administration. Moreover, higher CS levels in the SC correlated with the clinical condition of dry skin. No changes were observed in the SC lipid composition in healthy subjects. CONCLUSION Erlotinib-related dry skin was associated with a higher CS level in the SC.

Abstract
Background:In rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, synovitis causes severe articular cartilage damage. N-acetylglucosamine (NAc-Glc) is a component of gluglucosaminoglycans (GAG) such as hyaluronic acid (HA) and keratan sulfate (KS), heparan sulfate (HS). NAc-Glc concentration in plasma is thought to reflect the balance between biosynthesis and destruction of articular cartilage, however, few studies had examined the relationship between plasma NAc-Glc conncentration and RA activity.Objectives:NAc-Glc concentrations in RA patients were measured, and association with clinical indicators was assessed.Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out including 60 RA cases. Using N-acetylglucosamine-d3 as standard, the serum of subjects were deproteinized by protein precipitation method with acetonitrile, then concentration of NAc-Glc was measured with high-speed liquid chromatography mass spectrometer (LC-MS / MS). Clinical evaluation items: basic metabolism, presence or absence of exercise habit, Larsen score of knee and wrist joint, therapeutic agents (csDMARDs, biologics and PSL), DAS28, CRP, MMP-3, modified HAQ score (mHAQ). Statically analyzed by Spearman non parametric test.Results:The age of 60 RA cases was 59.7±16.4 years, and the duration of the disease was 10.4±8.7 years. Biologics were used in 29 cases (TNF inhibitors in 16 cases, IL-6 inhibitors in 4 cases, Abatacept in 9 cases), MTX in 32 cases, and prednisolone in 15 cases.Plasma NAc-Glc concentration was 113±41 (ng/dl), DAS28CRP was 3.04±1.2, and mHAQ was 0.863±891. Plasma NAc-Glc concentration showed positive correlation with age (correlation coefficient 0.644), knee joint destruction (0.425), HAQ score (0.340), BUN (0.412), and RF (0.287). Plasma NAc-Glc concentrations also negatively correlated with eGFR (-0.597), MTX use (-0.389), basal metabolism (-0.313), and sex difference (-0.272). There was no correlation between plasma NAc-Glc concentration and body weight, BMI, DAS28, CRP, MMP-3, NTX, serum creatinine, hand joint disease, and transaminase.In this study, plasma NAc-Glc concentration had increased with age, and had have a negative correlation with basal metabolism. Considering these results, it is unlikely that NAc-Glc is released into plasma as a metabolite of synthesis promotion. Further, since NAc-Glc had a negative correlation (-0.389) with MTX as a folic acid inhibitor, it was supposed to be affected by protein synthesis reduction. Because no correlation between NAc-Glc and inflammation or bone metabolism markers was observed, NAc-Glc may represent removal of GAG from the cell membrane (shedding).In previous GAGs studies, in RA patients, HA, KS, CRP, DAS28, was very associated with arthritis, such as MMP-3.The concentration of NAc-Glc in plasma was more relevant to dysfunctions such as destruction and HAQ due to arthritis such as HAQ than inflammatory indicators such as DAS28, MMP-3 and CRP. It is appearing in the plasma by destruction by shedding, as an index to see the joint destruction, it was presumed to be a better indicator than the GAGs. It was also thought that there is a possibility that MTX affects cartilage substrate metabolism.Conclusion:Serum NAc-Glc concentration in rheumatoid arthritis patients may represent cartilage metabolism and joint destruction.References:[1]Y.Matsuura. et al.Ann.Rheum.Dis. 2018;77: 1219-1225[2]T D Spector.et al.

Abstract
A concise spherical granulation method is required to prepare extemporaneously granules remanufactured from oral dosage forms for administration to individuals who cannot swallow tablets or capsules. In this study, we determined the feasibility of spherical granulation using a planetary centrifugal mixer. A model formulation, 20% ibuprofen (IBP) granules, was prepared using a lactose/cornstarch (7 : 3, w/w) mixture or D-mannitol as diluents, and changes in granule characteristics (mean diameter (d50), distribution range of granule size (span), and yield) were evaluated according to the amount of water added and the granulation time. The amount of water was assessed using the plastic limit value as measured using a digital force gauge. We successfully produced granules, and larger amounts of water and longer granulation times resulted in larger d50 values and smaller span values. The optimal granulation time was 45 s and the optimal water contents were 70 and 67.5% of the plastic limit value for the lactose/cornstarch mixture and D-mannitol, respectively. When compared to commercial 20% IBP granules, powder X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry analyses showed that the granulation process did not alter the crystallinity of the drug. Thus, this novel granulation method using a planetary centrifugal mixer may be a promising technique for compounding in pharmacies and in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Chronic kidney disease is a growing public health problem. Renal dysfunction is known as a strong risk factor for cardiovascular disease and end-stage renal failure. The presence of pan-diastolic flow reversal in the abdominal aorta is a very specific sign of severe aortic regurgitation (AR). A higher aortic reverse/forward flow ratio is associated with lower intrarenal forward flow. However, the influence of AR on renal function has been poorly understood. We hypothesized that the aortic flow reversal reduces the renal artery forward flow and accordingly leads to renal dysfunction in patients with severe AR.
Methods
The study consisted of 21 consecutive patients (mean age 69 ± 11 years) with severe AR who underwent aortic valve replacement (AVR). We compared echocardiographic indices and the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) before and 603 ± 541 days after AVR.
Results
Blood pressure was 122 ± 16/54 ± 8 mmHg before AVR and 123 ± 16/76 ± 11 mmHg after AVR. After AVR, left ventricular (LV) end-diastolic dimension decreased from 57 ± 9 to 44 ± 5 mm and LV ejection fraction increased from 58 ± 12 to 60 ± 11 %. Estimated GFR significantly increased from 62.9 ± 18.9 to 71.8 ± 18.1 mL/min per 1.73 m2 after AVR (p = 0.003).
Conclusions An increase in aortic flow reversal caused by severe AR reduces forward flow into the kidney and thereby deteriorates renal function. This study demonstrated a key mediating role of central hemodynamic factors, particularly an exaggerated aortic flow reversal in renal dysfunction and severe AR.

Abstract
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of severe vision impairment in patients over the age of 60 years. Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is the hallmark of neovascular AMD and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a causal role in the formation of CNV. Although regorafenib and pazopanib, small molecule VEGF receptor (VEGFR) inhibitors, were developed as eye-drops, their efficacies were insufficient in clinical. In this study, we evaluated ocular pharmacokinetics and pharmacological activities of regorafenib and pazopanib after ocular instillation in multiple animal species. In rats, both regorafenib and pazopanib showed high enough concentrations in the posterior eye tissues to inhibit VEGFR. In laser-induced rat CNV model, regorafenib showed clear reduction in CNV area. On the other hand, the concentrations of regorafenib and pazopanib in the posterior eye tissues were much lower after ocular instillation in rabbits and monkeys compared to those in rats. Pazopanib did not show any improvement in monkey model. Regorafenib was nano-crystalized to improve its drug delivery to the posterior eye tissues. The nano-crystalized formulation of regorafenib showed higher concentrations in the posterior segments in rabbits compared to its microcrystal suspension. From these studies, large interspecies differences were found in ocular delivery to the posterior segments after ocular instillation. Such large interspecies difference could be the reason for the insufficient efficacies of regorafenib and pazopanib in clinical studies. Nano-crystallization was suggested to be one of the effective ways to overcome this issue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Since the pharmacological effects of diclofenac (DF) are short-lived because of its short half-life, prolongation of the pharmacological effect in a topical formulation is needed for more appropriate clinical use. For the enhancement of dermal accumulation and prolongation of the pharmacological effect of drugs, the aim of this study was to develop a simple gel formulation containing an ion-pair complex of DF and phenylephrine (PHE), which induce constriction of the vascular smooth muscles. MATERIALS AND METHODS The ion-pair complex was prepared by mixing sodium DF and an ethanolic solution of PHE. The formed complex was characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The ion-pair complex for the gel formulation was prepared by mixing an equimolar concentration of 50% 1,3-butylene glycol and distilled aqueous solution of 2% xanthan gum, which was characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR). Skin permeation and accumulation of DF and PHE were evaluated by in vitro and in vivo studies. RESULTS From the results of PXRD and FT-IR, it was suggested that new crystalline peaks formed by the ion-pair complex and their complex interacted with the carboxyl group in DF and the amino group in PHE. In the gel formulation, the ion-pair complexes were detected by 1H-NMR. The ion-pair complex enhanced the accumulation of DF in the skin in the in vitro study. On the other hand, PHE accumulation in the dermis increased with the ion-pair complex, as exhibited by the in vivo study. CONCLUSION A new gel formulation containing the ion-pair complex of DF and PHE was developed, which improved the accumulation of DF in skin.

Abstract
In this symposium, we present a novel breathable protective ointment (BPO) formulation developed at the University of Shizuoka for the prevention of moisture-associated skin damage (MASD) intended for use in healthcare settings. MASD occurs when moisture is in constant contact with the skin for prolonged periods of time, causing degradation of the skin barrier. Exposure to physical or chemical stimuli in addition to moisture may lead to different types of moisture-associated dermatitis such as incontinence-associated or periwound dermatitis. Another type of moisture-associated dermatitis, diaper dermatitis, is treated with protective ointments such as white petrolatum and zinc ointment. These ointments protect the skin from irritants but also block insensible dermal perspiration, which promotes further skin maceration. Therefore, we have developed a BPO formulation from white petrolatum and calcium carbonate, which serve as a protectant and pore-forming agent, respectively. In vitro water-proof tests confirmed the skin-protective properties of the BPO, and moisture-permeation tests indicated its breathability. Moreover, the BPO protected the skin from irritants without the loss of skin hydration in rats. Our next step involves the trial of BPO in infants with diaper dermatitis. In the future, this BPO could be used as an ointment base for active pharmaceutical ingredients used to prevent MASD.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
In secondary prevention of coronary artery disease, target value of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) <100mg/dL with using statins is recommended as standard therapy in Japanese guideline. However, impact of residual risks after achievement of standard LDL-C lowering therapy was not fully examined. Furthermore, there is little information whether more strict management of LDL-C lowering is effective to prevent long-term cardiovascular events than standard management.
Purpose
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between residual risks after achievement of standard LDL-C lowering therapy and long-term coronary events in secondary prevention of Japanese patients.
Methods
From January 2007 to August 2018, 333 patients with previous percutaneous coronary intervention underwent late coronary angiography to examine recurrence of cardiac ischemia beyond the early phase of restenosis. We defined appropriate LDL-C lowering therapy as achieved LDL-C <100mg/dL with using statins. Patients whose achieved LDL-C was <100mg/dL with using statins were classified as Appropriate-group (n=139), and patients who were not using statins or whose achieved LDL-C was ≥100mg/dL were classified as Inappropriate-group (n=194). Endpoints of the study were recurrence of cardiac ischemia as acute coronary syndrome (recurrence-ACS) and any late coronary revascularization.
Results
During average 7.1 years follow-up, 195 patients (59%) underwent any late coronary revascularization. In 91 of those patients, clinical presentation of recurrence-ACS was observed. Kaplan-Meier curve analysis revealed that the incidence of recurrence-ACS and any late coronary revascularization were significantly lower in Appropriate-group than in Inappropriate-group (p=0.017 and p<0.001, respectively). In Appropriate-group, recurrence-ACS was significantly lower in patients with achieved LDL-C <70mg/dL than in those with LDL-C 70 to <100mg/dL (p=0.042), however, any late revascularization was not different between the two groups. On the other hand, in Inappropriate-group, recurrence-ACS was significantly lower in patients with using statins than in those without using statins (p=0.038), and any late revascularization was less frequent in patients with achieved LDL-C <100mg/dL than in those with LDL-C ≥100mg/dL (p=0.035). Moreover, multivariate analysis identified that only LDL-C was an independent predictor of recurrence-ACS in Appropriate-group (HR: 1.047, p=0.006), in contrast, LDL-C (HR: 1.008, p=0.020), using statins (HR: 0.555, p=0.034) and triglyceride (HR: 1.003, p=0.038) were independent predictors of recurrence-ACS in Inappropriate-group.
Conclusions
LDL-C was the most important residual risk of recurrence-ACS even after recommended standard therapy has been achieved. More strict management of LDL-C targeting to <70mg/dL should be considered in secondary prevention of Japanese patients.
