Pharmacogenetics of Drug Transporters in Modulating Imatinib Disposition and Treatment Outcomes in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia & Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor Patients

Abstract: The use of imatinib in the treatment of BCR-ABL-positive chronic myeloid leukemia and gastrointestinal stromal tumors has significantly improved survival outcomes in patients afflicted by these malignancies. However, a substantial proportion of imatinib-treated patients still experience treatment failure. Suboptimal concentrations of imatinib have been postulated to contribute at least partially to the development of resistance against imatinib. Indeed, variations in the genes encoding drug transporters have b… Show more

“…The impact of the ABCB1 genotype on imatinib disposition and pharmacokinetics showed conflicting results in the published literature, leaving plenty of room for further devoted investigations [ 10 ]. It is also worth considering that P-gP is a common player in drug–drug interactions [ 27 , 32 ], and that its expression can be modulated by the concurrent intake of P-gP inducer or inhibitor agents.…”

“…Several clinical investigations have highlighted the association between ABCB1 / ABCG2 polymorphisms and the efficacy of imatinib in both CML and GIST [ 10 ]. To what extent ABCB1 / ABCG2 polymorphisms contribute to the inter-individual variability in treatment efficacy by specifically affecting the imatinib pharmacokinetics has not been clarified.…”

“…Imatinib is metabolized in the liver by CYP3A5, CYP3A4 and CYP2A8 to its predominant metabolite N-desmethyl-imatinib [27]. In Malaysian patients, heterozygous (AG) and homozygous variant (GG) genotype of CYP3A5*3 were significantly associated with low risk of imatinib resistance [28].…”
