Abstract

P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is a transporter that plays an excretory role in epithelial cells. It is encoded by ABCB1, and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in this gene can affect systemic drug exposure. Dapagliflozin and sitagliptin, used in type 2 diabetes treatment, are P-gp substrates. Here, we aimed to investigate whether ABCB1 polymorphisms affect dapagliflozin and sitagliptin pharmacokinetics (PK) in healthy Korean subjects. The study population consisted of 100 healthy Korean subjects (94 men and 6 women) who participated in four different clinical trials and received dapagliflozin and sitagliptin doses of 10 and 100 mg, respectively. We determined ABCB1 genotypes for the C3435T, C1236T, and G2677T/A SNPs. The relationship between the genotypes and dapagliflozin PKs was examined. Dapagliflozin and sitagliptin PK parameters were not statistically significantly affected by ABCB1 SNP genotypes. However, homozygous 3435TT subjects showed higher dapagliflozin PK parameters than CT and CC subjects. In subjects with the 3435TT and those with 3435CC and 3435CT genotypes, mean C_max, AUC_inf, and AUC_0-1 values of dapagliflozin were 223.06 ng/mL and 194.81 ng /mL (p = 0.2767), 673.58 ng*h/mL and 573.96 ng*h/mL (p = 0.0492), and 128.53 ng*h/mL and 104.61 ng*h/mL (p = 0.2678), respectively. In summary, dapagliflozin and sitagliptin PK parameters were not significantly different between individuals with C1236T and C2677T/A ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms. Dapagliflozin exhibited higher systemic exposure in 3435TT subjects than in CC/CT subjects.
