Drug Interaction Potential of Pro-Inflammatory Conditions

Pro-inflammatory cytokines, which are elevated in pro-inflammatory disease states (e.g., type II diabetes mellitus \[T2DM\], irritable bowel diseases \[IBD\], and end stage renal disease \[ESRD\]) have been shown to inhibit hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes, including members of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) family, and drug transporters; resultantly, pro-inflammatory diseases have been demonstrated to increase the exposure and potential for adverse drug events with co-administered CYP and drug transporter substrates. However, the clinical relevance of pro-inflammatory disease-drug interactions has not been systematically evaluated. The long-term goal of this research is to establish clinical strategies to mitigate pro-inflammatory disease-drug interactions and associated adverse drug events. The specific objective of this study is to determine the clinical relevance of pro-inflammatory disease-drug interactions, including establishment of the effect of pro-inflammatory diseases on drug disposition throughout disease trajectories (i.e., determining the differential effects on drug disposition based on the severity of disease). Towards this objective, this study will investigate the extent of increases in inflammation in patients with varying severities of pro-inflammatory diseases and estimate the resulting effects on drug disposition. Cytokine/chemokine concentrations and immune cell profiles will be assayed from blood samples of adult and pediatric patients with differing sever…
