Abstract
Objectives: We aimed to analyze the relationships between single nucleotide polymorphisms in the ATP-binding cassette transporter B1 (ABCB1) and G2 (ABCG2) genes and plasma concentrations of tenofovir alafenamide (TAF), tenofovir (TFV), and emtricitabine (FTC).
Methods: We recruited 10 people living with HIV receiving once-daily treatment with a single tablet containing TAF (25 mg), FTC (200 mg), and bictegravir (50 mg). Peripheral blood samples were collected at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 h after administration. Plasma concentrations of TAF, TFV, and FTC were quantified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Genotyping for allelic variants of ABCB1, including 1236C > T (rs1128503), 2677 G > T/A (rs2032582), 3435C > T (rs1045642), 4036 A > G (rs3842) and ABCG2 421C > A (rs2231142), was performed using TaqMan Drug Metabolism Assays.
Results: None of the genotypes for ABCB1 1236C > T, 2677 G > T/A, 3435C > T, and ABCG2 421C > A exhibited correlations with plasma concentrations of TAF, TFV, and FTC. In contrast, individuals with the ABCB1 4036 AG genotype (188.7 ng/mL, n = 3) exhibited a significantly higher mean peak plasma concentration of TAF than those with the ABCB1 4036 AA genotype (67.7 ng/mL, n = 7) (p = 0.0167). However, these genotypes did not affect the elimination of terminal half-lives of TAF.
Conclusions: The allelic variant ABCB1 4036 A > G is associated with reduced protein expression and function of ABCB1. Individuals with this genetic variant exhibited significantly high peak plasma concentrations of TAF, potentially due to the reduced expression of efflux transporters in the intestines linked to this variant.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Infection and Chemotherapy (JIC) — official journal of the Japanese Society of Chemotherapy and The Japanese Association for Infectious Diseases — welcomes original papers, laboratory or clinical, as well as case reports, notes, committee reports, surveillance and guidelines from all parts of the world on all aspects of chemotherapy, covering the pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and control of infection, including treatment with anticancer drugs. Experimental studies on animal models and pharmacokinetics, and reports on epidemiology and clinical trials are particularly welcome.
