Abstrakt: The regulation of drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters by cytokines has been extensively studied in vitro and in clinic. Cytokine-mediated suppression of cytochrome P450 (CYP) or drug transporters may increase or decrease the systemic clearance of drug substrates that are primarily cleared via these pathways; neutralization of cytokines by therapeutic proteins may thereby alter systemic exposures of such drug substrates. The Food and Drug Administration recommends evaluating such clinical drug interactions during clinical development and has provided labeling recommendations for therapeutic proteins. To determine the clinical relevance of these drug interactions to dose adjustments, trends in steady-state exposures of CYP-sensitive substrates coadministered with cytokine modulators as reported in the University of Washington Drug Interaction Database were extracted and examined for each of the CYPs. Coadministration of cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A (CYP3A) (midazolam/simvastatin), cytochrome P450 subfamily 2C19 (omeprazole), or cytochrome P450 subfamily 1A2 (caffeine/tizanidine) substrates with anti-interleukin-6 and with anti-interleukin-23 therapeutics led to changes in systemic exposures of CYP substrates ranging from ∼ –58% to ∼35%; no significant trends were observed for cytochrome P450 subfamily 2D6 (dextromethorphan) and cytochrome P450 subfamily 2C9 (warfarin) substrates. Although none of these changes in systemic exposures have been reported as clinically meaningful, dose adjustment of midazolam for optimal sedation in acute care settings has been reported. Simulated concentration-time profiles of midazolam under conditions of elevated cytokine levels when coadministered with tocilizumab, suggest a ∼six- to sevenfold increase in midazolam clearance, suggesting potential implications of cytokine–CYP drug interactions on dose adjustments of sensitive CYP3A substrates in acute care settings. Additionally, this article also provides a brief overview of nonclinical and clinical assessments of cytokine–CYP drug interactions in drug discovery and development.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTThere has been significant progress in understanding cytokine-mediated drug interactions for CYP-sensitive substrates. This article provides an overview of the progress in this field, including a trend analysis of systemic exposures of CYP-sensitive substrates coadministered with anti-interleukin therapeutics. In addition, the review also provides a perspective of current methods used to assess these drug interactions during drug development and a focus on individualized medicine, particularly in acute care settings.
