PBPK modeling to predict drug-drug interactions of ivosidenib as a perpetrator in cancer patients and qualification of the Simcyp platform for CYP3A4 induction

摘要

Ivosidenib is a potent, targeted, orally active, small-molecule inhibitor of mutant isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) that has been approved in the United States for the treatment of adults with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are greater than or equal to 75 years of age or ineligible for intensive chemotherapy, and those with relapsed or refractory AML, with a susceptible IDH1 mutation. Ivosidenib is an inducer of the CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and CYP3A4 and an inhibitor of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), organic anion transporting polypeptide-1B1/1B3 (OATP1B1/1B3), and organic anion transporter-3 (OAT3) in vitro. A physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PK) model was developed to predict drug-drug interactions (DDIs) of ivosidenib in patients with AML. The in vivo CYP3A4 induction effect of ivosidenib was quantified using 4 beta-hydroxycholesterol and was subsequently verified with the PK data from an ivosidenib and venetoclax combination study. The verified model was prospectively applied to assess the effect of multiple doses of ivosidenib on a sensitive CYP3A4 substrate, midazolam. The simulated midazolam geometric mean area under the curve (AUC) and maximum plasma concentration (C-max) ratios were 0.18 and 0.27, respectively, suggesting ivosidenib is a strong inducer. The model was also used to predict the DDIs of ivosidenib with CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, P-gp, OATP1B1/1B3, and OAT3 substrates. The AUC ratios following multiple doses of ivosidenib and a single dose of CYP2B6 (bupropion), CYP2C8 (repaglinide), CYP2C9 (warfarin), P-gp (digoxin), OATP1B1/1B3 (rosuvastatin), and OAT3 (methotrexate) substrates were 0.90, 0.52, 0.84, 1.01, 1.02, and 1.27, respectively. Finally, in accordance with regulatory guidelines, the Simcyp modeling platform was qualified to predict CYP3A4 induction using known inducers and sensitive substrates.
