Abstract St. John's wort (SJW) extract, a herbal medicine with antidepressant effects, is a potent inducer of intestinal and/or hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and P-glycoprotein (P-gp), which can cause clinically relevant drug interactions. It is currently not known whether SJW can also induce P-gp activity at the human blood–brain barrier (BBB),...

Abstract DPP4 inhibitors are widely prescribed as treatments for type 2 diabetes. Because drug responses vary among individuals, we initiated investigations to identify genetic variants associated with the magnitude of drug responses. Sitagliptin (100 mg) was administered to 47 healthy volunteers. Several endpoints were measured to assess clinically...

Abstract Fexuprazan, a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker, is expected to be used for the prevention of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) induced ulcer. This study aimed to evaluate pharmacokinetic (PK) interactions between fexuprazan and NSAIDs in healthy subjects. A randomized, open-label, multicenter, six-sequence, one-way crossover...

Abstract Sitravatinib (MGCD516) is an orally available, small molecule, tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has been evaluated in patients with advanced solid tumors. Concentration-corrected QT interval (QTc; C-QTc) modeling was undertaken, using 767 matched concentration-ECG observations from 187 patients across two clinical studies in patients with advanced...

Abstract The clinical application of Pharmacogenomics (PGx) has improved patient safety. However, comprehensive PGx testing has not been widely adopted in clinical practice, and significant opportunities exist to further optimize PGx in cancer care. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to evaluate the safety outcomes of reported PGx-guided...

Abstract This parallel-arm, phase I study investigated the potential cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A induction effect of NBI-1065845 (TAK-653), an investigational α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor potentiator in phase II development for major depressive disorder. The midazolam treatment arm received the sensitive CYP3A substrate...
