This study aimed to evaluate the influence of genetic polymorphisms of drug-metabolizing enzyme genes, transporter gene, pathological gene (APOE), and non-genetic factors on therapeutic outcomes as well as steady-state plasma concentrations (Cpss) of galantamine in Thai patients with mixed dementia.Fifty-one Thai patients with mixed dementia who received galantamine for at least 6 months were recruited. CYP2D6, CYP3A5, and ABCB1 polymorphisms were detected by TaqManThe multivariate regression model revealed that patients who carried one or more detrimental allelic variant (CYP2D6, CYP3A5, and UGT1A1) showed a tendency toward a higher galantamine adjusted Cpss (B = 34.559, 95% CI = 0.741-68.377, p value = 0.045). Logistic regression analysis also revealed CYP2D6*10 carriers were significantly associated with higher ΔTMSE (B = 5.227, 95% CI = 2.395-8.060, p value = 0.001). UGT1A1 mutant alleles and non-genetic factors including concomitant use of statin drugs and higher education level can attenuate therapeutic outcomes of galantamine.Pharmacokinetic-related genes including CYP2D6*10 and UGT1A1 mutant alleles were significantly associated with galantamine adjusted Cpss and cognitive function. Determination of Cpss and genotype could be an adjunct examination to provide further explanation in interindividual variability of galantamine therapeutic outcome. |
