Interferon alpha (IFN-alpha) is thought to be responsible for cytochrome P450 (CYP)-dependent drug interactions mediated by a decrease in CYP activities.
The objectives are to determine whether IFN-alpha and ribavirin can alter pretreatment CYP1A2, CYP2D6, CYP3A4 and N-acetyltransferase-2 activities after 1 month of treatment.
Enzymatic activities were determined among 14 patients with chronic active hepatitis C before IFN-alpha (3. 10(6) U, 3 times a week) and ribavirin introduction and after 1 month of treatment. During both study periods, subjects received 80 mg dextromethorphan and 140 mg caffeine (1,3,7-trimethylxanthine [137X]). CYP3A4, CYP2D6, and NAT2 activities were assessed by use of urinary metabolic ratios of 3-methoxymorphinan/dextromethorphan, dextrorphan/dextromethorphan, and 5-acetylamino-6-formylamino-3-methyluracil (AFMU)/1-methylxanthine(1X). The plasma paraxanthine/caffeine ratio was used to measure CYP1A2 activity.
CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 activities tended to increase after 1 month of antiviral therapy, but the change did not reach statistical significance. CYP1A2 and NAT2 activities were not significantly modified after 1 month of antiviral treatment. Pretreatment activities were significantly lower than those previously observed in healthy volunteers for CYP2D6 (mean +/- SD, 148 +/- 139 versus 759 +/- 692; P =.0008) and CYP3A4 (0.18 +/- 0.06 versus 0.52 +/- 0.72; P =.0006). This difference was no longer statistically significant after 1 month of treatment, because CYP2D6 and CYP3A4 activities improved in 7 patients.
In patients with chronic hepatitis C, pretreatment CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 activities were significantly lower than those observed in healthy volunteers. These differences disappeared after 1 month of antiviral treatment because of the restoration of these CYP activities in about half of the patients.
干扰素α(IFN-α)被认为是细胞色素P450(CYP)依赖性药物相互作用的原因,这种相互作用是由CYP活性降低介导的。
目的是确定IFN-α和利巴韦林在治疗1个月后是否能改变治疗前CYP1A2、CYP2D6、CYP3A4和N-乙酰转移酶-2的活性。
在14例慢性丙型肝炎患者中,于IFN-α(3.10⁶U,每周3次)和利巴韦林引入前以及治疗1个月后测定酶活性。在两个研究期间,受试者服用80mg右美沙芬和140mg咖啡因(1,3,7-三甲基黄嘌呤[137X])。通过使用3-甲氧基吗啡烷/右美沙芬、右啡烷/右美沙芬和5-乙酰氨基-6-甲酰氨基-3-甲基尿嘧啶(AFMU)/1-甲基黄嘌呤(1X)的尿代谢比值评估CYP3A4、CYP2D6和NAT2的活性。血浆副黄嘌呤/咖啡因比值用于测量CYP1A2活性。
抗病毒治疗1个月后,CYP3A4和CYP2D6活性有升高趋势,但变化未达到统计学意义。抗病毒治疗1个月后,CYP1A2和NAT2活性无明显改变。治疗前CYP2D6(均值±标准差,148±139对759±692;P = 0.0008)和CYP3A4(0.18±0.06对0.52±0.72;P = 0.0006)的活性显著低于先前在健康志愿者中观察到的活性。治疗1个月后,这种差异不再具有统计学意义,因为7例患者的CYP2D6和CYP3A4活性有所改善。
在慢性丙型肝炎患者中,治疗前CYP3A4和CYP2D6的活性显著低于健康志愿者。由于约一半患者的这些CYP活性恢复,抗病毒治疗1个月后这些差异消失。
