Physiologically‐Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling Approach to Predict Rifampin‐Mediated Intestinal P‐Glycoprotein Induction

Physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling is a powerful tool to quantitatively describe drug disposition profiles in vivo, thereby providing an alternative to predict drug–drug interactions (DDIs) that have not been tested clinically. This study aimed to predict effects of rifampin‐media...

description Physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling is a powerful tool to quantitatively describe drug disposition profiles in vivo, thereby providing an alternative to predict drug–drug interactions (DDIs) that have not been tested clinically. This study aimed to predict effects of rifampin‐mediated intestinal P‐glycoprotein (Pgp) induction on pharmacokinetics of Pgp substrates via PBPK modeling. First, we selected four Pgp substrates (digoxin, talinolol, quinidine, and dabigatran etexilate) to derive in vitro to in vivo scaling factors for intestinal Pgp kinetics. Assuming unbound Michaelis‐Menten constant (Km) to be intrinsic, we focused on the scaling factors for maximal efflux rate (Jmax) to adequately recover clinically observed results. Next, we predicted rifampin‐mediated fold increases in intestinal Pgp abundances to reasonably recover clinically observed DDI results. The modeling results suggested that threefold to fourfold increases in intestinal Pgp abundances could sufficiently reproduce the DDI results of these Pgp substrates with rifampin. Hence, the obtained fold increases can potentially be applicable to DDI prediction with other Pgp substrates.
