- Drug transporter inhibitors are important tools to elucidate the contribution of transporters to drug disposition both in vitro and in vivo. These inhibitors are often unselective and affect several transporters as well as drug metabolizing enzymes, which can make experimental results difficult to interpret with confidence. We therefore tested 14 commonly used P-glycoprotein (P-gp), breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), and multidrug-resistance associated protein (MRP) inhibitors as inhibitors of cytochrome P450 (P450) enzyme activities using recombinant enzymes. A subset of P-gp and/or CYP3A inhibitors were selected (cyclosporin A, elacridar, ketoconazole, quinidine, reserpine, and tacrolimus) for a comparison of P450 inhibition in human microsomes and hepatocytes. Most P-gp inhibitors showed CYP3A4 inhibition, with potencies often in a similar range as their P-gp inhibition, as well as less potent CYP2C19 inhibition. Other P450 enzymes were not strongly inhibited except a few cases of CYP2D6 inhibition. MRP and BCRP inhibitors showed limited P450 inhibition. Some inhibitors showed less P450 inhibition in human hepatocytes than human liver microsomes, for example, elacridar, probably due to differences in binding, permeability limitations, or active, P-gp mediated efflux of the inhibitor from the hepatocytes. Quinidine was a potent P450 inhibitor in hepatocytes but only showed weak inhibition in microsomes. Quinidine shows an extensive cellular uptake, which may potentiate intracellular P450 inhibition. Elacridar, described as a potent and selective P-gp inhibitor, displayed modest P450 inhibition in this study and is thus a useful model inhibitor to define the role of P-gp in drug disposition without interference with other processes.

- 1. Systematic under-prediction of clearance is frequently associated with in vitro kinetic data when extrapolated using physiological scaling factors, appropriate binding parameters and the well-stirred model. The present study describes a method of removing this systematic bias through application of empirical correction factors derived from regression analyses applied to the in vitro and in vivo data for a defined set of reference compounds.2. Linear regression lines were established with in vivo intrinsic clearance (CLint), derived from in vivo clearance data and scaled in vitro intrinsic clearance from isolated hepatocyte incubations. The scaled CLint was empirically corrected to a predicted in vivo CLint using the slope and intercept from a uniform weighted linear regression applied to the in vitro to in vivo extrapolation.3. Cross validation of human data demonstrated that 66% of the reference compounds had a predicted in vivo CLint within two-fold of the observed value. The average absolute fold error (AAFE) for the in vivo CLint predictions was 1.90. For rat, 54% of the compounds had a predicted value within two-fold of the observed and the AAFE was 1.98.4. Three AstraZeneca projects are used to exemplify how a two-sided prediction interval, applied to the rat regression corrected reference data, can form the basis for assessing the likelihood that, for a given chemical series, the in vitro kinetic data is predictive of in vivo clearance and is therefore appropriate to guide optimisation of compound metabolic stability.
