Popis: Plasma protein-mediated uptake (PMU) and its effect on clearance (CL) prediction have been studied in various formats; however, a comprehensive analysis of the overall impact of PMU on CL parameters from hepatocyte assays (routinely used for IVIVE) has not previously been performed. The following work collated data reflecting the effect of PMU for 26 compounds with a wide variety of physicochemical, drug, and in vivo CL properties. PMU enhanced the unbound intrinsic clearance in vitro (CLint,u in vitro) beyond that conventionally calculated using fraction unbound and was correlated with the unbound fraction of drug in vitro and in plasma (fup) and absolute unbound intrinsic clearance in vivo (CLint,u in vivo) in both rat and human hepatocytes. PMU appeared to be more important for highly bound (fup 50% of compounds predicted within a 2-fold error for both rat and human data sets (n ≥ 100). SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Current strategies for prediction of hepatic clearance from in vitro data are recognized to be inaccurate, but they do not account for PMU. The impact of PMU on CLint,u in vitro is wide ranging and can be predicted based on fraction unbound in plasma and applied to CLint,u in vitro values obtained by standard procedures in the absence of plasma protein. Such PMU-enhanced predictions improved IVIVE, and future studies may easily incorporate this PMU relationship to provide more accurate IVIVE.
