An ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion)-pharmacogenetics association study may identify functional variants relevant to the pharmacokinetics of lopinavir co-formulated with ritonavir (LPV/r), a first-line anti-HIV agent.
An extensive search of literature and web resources helped select ADME genes and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs, functional and HapMap tagging SNPs) with a proven or potentially relevant role in LPV/r pharmacokinetics. The study followed a two-stage design. Stage 1 (discovery) considered a Caucasian population (n=638) receiving LPV/r, where we selected 117 individuals with low LPV clearance (cases) and 90 individuals with high clearance (controls). Genotyping was performed by a 1536-SNP customized GoldenGate Illumina BeadArray. Stage 2 (confirmation) represented a replication study of candidate SNPs from the stage 1 in 148 individuals receiving LPV/r. The analysis led to formal population pharmacokinetic-pharmacogenetic modeling of demographic, environmental and candidate SNP effects.
One thousand three hundred and eighty SNPs were successfully genotyped. Nine SNPs prioritized by the stage 1 analysis were brought to replication. Stage 2 confirmed the contribution of two functional SNPs in SLCO1B1, one functional SNP in ABCC2 and a tag SNP of the CYP3A locus in addition to body weight effect and ritonavir coadministration. According to the population pharmacokinetic-pharmacogenetic model, genetic variants explained 5% of LPV variability. Individuals homozygous rs11045819 (SLCO1B14) had a clearance of 12.6 l/h, compared with 5.4 l/h in the reference group, and 3.9 l/h in individuals with two or more variant alleles of rs4149056 (SLCO1B15), rs717620 (ABCC2) or rs6945984 (CYP3A). A subanalysis confirmed that although a significant part of the variance in LPV clearance was attributed to fluctuation in ritonavir levels, genetic variants had an additional effect on LPV clearance.
The two-stage strategy successfully identified genetic variants affecting LPV/r pharmacokinetics. Such a general approach of ADME pharmacogenetics should be generalized to other drugs.
ADME(吸收、分布、代谢和排泄)-药物遗传学关联研究可以识别与洛匹那韦利托那韦(LPV/r)药代动力学相关的功能变异体,LPV/r 是一种一线抗 HIV 药物。
广泛搜索文献和网络资源有助于选择 ADME 基因和单核苷酸多态性(SNP,功能和 HapMap 标记 SNP),这些基因和 SNP 在 LPV/r 药代动力学中具有已证实或潜在相关作用。该研究采用两阶段设计。第一阶段(发现)考虑了接受 LPV/r 的白种人群(n=638),我们从中选择了 117 名 LPV 清除率低的个体(病例)和 90 名清除率高的个体(对照)。基因分型通过 1536-SNP 定制的 GoldenGate Illumina BeadArray 进行。第二阶段(验证)代表了在接受 LPV/r 的 148 名个体中对第一阶段候选 SNP 的复制研究。该分析导致了人口药代动力学-药物遗传学模型的正式建立,该模型考虑了人口统计学、环境和候选 SNP 对体重效应和利托那韦共给药的影响。
成功对 1380 个 SNP 进行了基因分型。第一阶段分析优先考虑的 9 个 SNP 被带到复制阶段。第二阶段证实了 SLCO1B1 中的两个功能 SNP、ABCC2 中的一个功能 SNP 以及 CYP3A 基因座的标签 SNP 的作用,以及体重效应和利托那韦共给药的作用。根据人口药代动力学-药物遗传学模型,遗传变异解释了 LPV 可变性的 5%。SLCO1B14 纯合子 rs11045819 个体的清除率为 12.6 l/h,而参考组为 5.4 l/h,rs4149056(SLCO1B15)、rs717620(ABCC2)或 rs6945984(CYP3A)的两个或更多变异等位基因的个体的清除率为 3.9 l/h。一项亚分析证实,尽管 LPV 清除率的大部分变异归因于利托那韦水平的波动,但遗传变异对 LPV 清除率仍有额外影响。
两阶段策略成功鉴定了影响 LPV/r 药代动力学的遗传变异体。这种 ADME 药物遗传学的一般方法应该推广到其他药物。
