PARACELSUS (1493-1541) All things are toxic and there is nothing without poisonous qualities: it is only the dose which makes something a poison Pharmaco/Toxicokinetics How the chemical is eliminated from the body or activated into a toxic species (ADME) Pharmaco/Toxicodynamics How the chemical exerts its pharmacological effect/ toxicity Target receptor/cell/organ

Slide 14

Introducing metabolic and toxicokinetic data into risk assessment

Slide 15

Aims Aims Quantify human variability in kinetics for major metabolic routes Markers of chronic exposure (plasma Clearance) Markers of acute exposure (plasma peak concentration Cmax) Prefer the oral route (gut + liver): relevance to environmental contaminants Comparison to the IV route (liver) Identify susceptible subgroups of the population Derive pathway-related uncertainty factors for each subgroup

Slide 16

Methods Methods Literature searches Medline, Toxline and EMBASE (1966-current) Compounds metabolised by single route (complete oral absorption, >60% of dose) In vitro metabolism data (cell line, liver microsomes): metabolic route In vivo excretion data: HPLC detects parent compound and metabolites In vivo pharmacokinetic studies for human subgroups

Slide 17

Meta-analysis of studies reporting PK parameters for each compound/ parameter/ subgroup of the population: Mean, SD and CV N (normal distribution) transform to geometric mean and GSD, CV LN (lognormal distribution) Derive Coefficient of variation (CV) for each compound/parameter and pool CVs to get overall value for metabolic route (pathway-related variability) Derive Pathway-related uncertainty factors (to cover 95, 97.5 and 99th centiles) using CV and magnitude of difference in internal dose (clearance

• r Cmax) between healthy adults and subgroups Methods II Methods II

Slide 18

Results Results Database for >200 compounds HPLC method for the detection of parent compound and metabolites In vitro metabolism of compound inter-species and human In vivo metabolism data (% excretion for compound and each metabolite HPLC data) Kinetic studies for each compound (> 2500 studies) Subgroups of the human population (healthy adults, genetic polymorphism, interethnic differences, neonates, children and the elderly)

Slide 22

Quantitative involvement of dose handling on kinetic differences: CYP2C19 PMs covered by UFs for substrates with up to 20-25% (dose) of CYP2C19 metabolism in EMs.

Slide 23

Results: Subgroups of the population Interethnic differences Less variability in Asian vs Caucasian for CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 (+ different frequencies of phenotypes) Pathway- related uncertainty factors above kinetic default for CYP2C19 and NAT metabolism Historically smaller database for non-Caucasian subjects: Modern man : mixture of ethnic groups and more so in the future ! Ex relationship for CYP2C19 and ratio EMs/PMs in Asian healthy adults (R 2 =0.87) : Slope 100% metabolism via CYP2C19 gives a ratio of 30 (80 in Caucasian !)

Slide 24

Children and neonates Potential susceptible subgroups of the population: -Immaturity of phase I, phase II and renal excretion (particularly for neonates) -Quantify differences in internal dose from in vivo PK database -Provide pathway-related UFs for these subgroups -Identify datagaps

Slide 25

Slide 27

Polymorphism in metabolism and Children and neonates: Examples Fluoxetine and paroxetine metabolised largely via CYP2D6 and other CYP isoforms (CYP2C9, CYP3A4 and CYP2C19) Large inter-individual differences in kinetics in healthy adults and children: up to 10-18-fold variation in clearance in healthy adults PMs (including 2 PM children) Holden, C. Prozac Treatment of Newborn Mice Raises Anxiety. Science. 2004 Oct 29;306(5697):792. Ibuprofen and indomethacin in preterm neonates : up to 10-fold difference decrease in clearance : immature CYP2C9, glucuronidation and renal excretion. Lansoprazole (CYP2C19-CYP3A4): 1 neonate and 1 infant PM (3- and 7-fold decrease in clearance)

Slide 28

Predicting human variability in toxicokinetics using Monte Carlo modelling

Slide 29

Latin hypercube sampling: variant of Monte Carlo (random), stratified sampling throughout the distribution. Compounds handled by multiple pathways : predict variability and uncertainty factors for healthy adults, children and neonates. Combine distributions describing pathway –related variability and quantitative metabolism data. Compare Simulated data and published kinetic data.

Slide 30

Poor metabolisers, neonates and children : -GM ratio of internal dose (mean) compared to healthy adults and pathway-specific variability (GSD) for each pathway. -Neonates and children: ideally use metabolism data but often not available: liver microsome / in vitro and/or healthy adult data -Polymorphic pathways : Combine distribution for EM and PM using frequency of EM and PMs ( for CYP2D6 7.4% PM in Caucasian)

Slide 32

Phenotyped healthy adults: Uncertainty factors (99 th centile) CYP2D6 EMs CYP2D6 PMs Combined EMs and PMs

Slide 33

Literature searches for interaction studies between major probe substrates (> 70% of the dose metabolised by each CYP) of CYP2D6 and CYP2C19, inhibitors and inducers of each enzyme. UFs to cover percentiles for subgroup of population Pharmacokinetic interaction between probe substrates of polymorphic CYPs Relevance: a number of pesticides are substrates and inhibit polymorphic CYPs (chlorpyrifos, diazinon).. Extensive metabolisers (EMs) are at risk if the metabolite produced the toxicant. Poor metabolisers (PMs) would be at risk if the parent compound is the toxicant.

Slide 34

DRUG A ACTIVE SITE CYP2D6 Cimetidine Cimetidine binds away from active site, changing structure so that Drug A can no longer fits NON-COMPETETIVE CYP2D6 INHIBITION BY CIMETIDINE

Slide 35

CYP2D6 DRUG A ACTIVE SITE Paroxetine Paroxetine binds reversibly with drug A to the active site COMPETITIVE INHIBITION OF CYP2D6 BY PAROXETINE

Slide 36

CYP Enzyme Induction Hyperforin CYP expression mRNA transcription Pregnane X receptor Retinoid X Receptor Rifampin

Slide 37

Polymorphic CYP inhibition CYP2D6 Inhibition will increase internal dose in EMs and UF for toxicokinetic UF (3.16) would not cover this subgroup for binary mixtures. PMs not affected : alternative pathways of metabolism, slow extensive metabolisers (SEMs) are an intermediate

Slide 38

INHIBITION/ INDUCTION Inhibition/induction of polymorphic CYP increase/decrease exposure to therapeutic drugs in EMs (and PMs for induction). Current UF for human variability in toxicokinetics (3.16) would not cater for these interactions Results variable ; detailed analysis to classify interaction according to constant of inhibition (Ki) In vivo database on therapeutic doses much higher than pesticide levels but only in vivo data quantifying human variability in toxicokinetic interactions.

Slide 39

RELEVANCE TO HUMAN RISK ASSESSMENT Current levels of exposure of organophosphates (< 10 uM) : shown to inhibit imipramine metabolism in human recombinant enzymes and liver microsomes (Di Consiglio et al., 2005). Many pesticides known to either inhibit or induce cytochrome P-450 isoforms in animals and man More work to characterise their potential in vivo effects at the current level of exposure using recombinant technology and toxicokinetic assays (Hodgson and Rose, 2005).

Slide 40

CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS Most suceptible subgroups (mixtures) Extensive metabolisers for polymorphic enzymes with inhibitors if metabolite toxic Human data are essential To replace default uncertainty factors with chemical-specific data To identify high risk subgroups regarding susceptibility to chemical toxicity Most susceptible subgroups Poor metabolisers (Healthy adults), neonates, children for polymorphic enzymes but very little data Need for well characterised metabolism before compound on the market Use of in vitro techniques Many pesticides metabolised via polymorphic CYPs

Slide 41

Regulatory bodies, Risk managers ? Integrate data (including susceptible subgroups…) in the risk assessment process In vitro, in silico data and OMICS Analysis of toxicodynamics (mechanisms of toxicity) Very little data, use of pharmacodynamic data Advanced statistical techniques Uncertainty analysis, Probabilistic and Bayesian approaches Industry Integrate relevant data (compound specific metabolism PK, PD, TK, TD…) and relevant modelling techniques for risk assessment of compounds before market CONCLUSIONS II CONCLUSIONS II
