Abstract
- Four P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) substrates with human cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations and preclinical neuropharmacokinetics were used to assess in vitro-in vivo extrapolation of brain penetration in preclinical species and the ability to predict human brain penetration. Unbound brain (C <subscript>b,u</subscript> ), unbound plasma (C <subscript>p,u</subscript> ), and CSF compound concentrations (C <subscript>CSF</subscript> ) were measured in rats and nonhuman primates (NHPs), and the unbound partition coefficients (C <subscript>b,u</subscript> /C <subscript>p,u</subscript> and C <subscript>CSF</subscript> /C <subscript>p,u</subscript> ) were used to assess brain penetration. The results indicated that for P-gp and BCRP dual substrates, brain penetration was severally impaired in all species. In comparison, for P-gp substrates that are weak or non-BCRP substrates, improved brain penetration was observed in NHPs and humans than in rats. Overall, NHP appears to be more predictive of human brain penetration for P-gp substrates with weak or no interaction with BCRP than rat. Although C <subscript>CSF</subscript> does not quantitatively correspond to C <subscript>b,u</subscript> for efflux transporter substrates, it is mostly within 3-fold higher of C <subscript>b,u</subscript> in rat and NHP, suggesting that C <subscript>CSF</subscript> can be used as a surrogate for C <subscript>b,u</subscript> . Taken together, a holistic approach including both in vitro transporter and in vivo neuropharmacokinetics data enables a better estimation of human brain penetration of P-gp/BCRP substrates.<br /> (Copyright © 2018 American Pharmacists Association®.
