Abstrakt: |
Antipsychotic response to clozapine varies markedly among patients with schizophrenia. The disposition of clozapine is dependent, in part, on the cytochrome P-450 (CYP) 1A2 enzyme in vivo. In theory, a very high CYP1A2 activity may lead to subtherapeutic concentrations and treatment resistance to clozapine. This prospective case study evaluates the clinical significance of ultrarapid CYP1A2 activity and a recently discovered single nucleotide (C → A) polymorphism in intron 1 of the CYP1A2gene (CYP1A2*F) for treatment resistance to clozapine. In addition, we describe the effect of grapefruit juice or low-dose fluvoxamine (25–50 mg/d) coadministration on clozapine and active metabolite norclozapine steady-state plasma concentration and antipsychotic response. |
