Abstract:There is an increased recognition of the need to identify and quantify the impact of genetic polymorphisms on drug-drug interactions. This study investigated the pharmacogenetics of the pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction between nevirapine and artemether-lumefantrine in HIV-positive and HIV-negative adult Nigerian subjects. Thirty each of HIV-infected patients on nevirapine-based antiretroviral therapy and HIV-negative volunteers without clinical malaria, but with predetermined CYP2B6 c.516GG and TT genotyp… Show more
“…Another study amongst Nigerian HIV-malaria infected subjects explored the impact of CYP2B6 516GT polymorphism on NVR and artemether-lumefantrine drug-drug interaction. The authors showed that decreased exposure to artemether and desbutyl-lumefantrine caused by NVR was further enhanced by patients with CYP2B6 516GG genotype (ultrarapid metabolizers) (Abdullahi et al, 2020 ). Again, the CYP2B6 516TT genotype (poor metabolizers) also influenced increased exposure to dihydroartemisinin and lumefantrine caused by NVR (Abdullahi et al, 2020 ).…”

Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) are one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. It is well-known that individual genetic make-up is one of the causative factors of ADRs. Approximately 14 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are distributed throughout the entire human genome and every patient has a distinct genetic make-up which influences their response to drug therapy. Cytochrome P450 2B6 (CYP2B6) is involved in the metabolism of antiretroviral, antimalarial, anticancer, and antidepressant drugs. These drug classes are commonly in use worldwide and face specific population variability in side effects and dosing. Parts of this variability may be caused by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CYP2B6 gene that are associated with altered protein expression and catalytic function. Population variability in the CYP2B6 gene leads to changes in drug metabolism which may result in adverse drug reactions or therapeutic failure. So far more than 30 non-synonymous variants in CYP2B6 gene have been reported. The occurrence of these variants show intra and interpopulation variability, thus affecting drug efficacy at individual and population level. Differences in disease conditions and affordability of drug therapy further explain why some individuals or populations are more exposed to CYP2B6 pharmacogenomics associated ADRs than others. Variabilities in drug efficacy associated with the pharmacogenomics of CYP2B6 have been reported in various populations. The aim of this review is to highlight reports from various ethnicities that emphasize on the relationship between CYP2B6 pharmacogenomics variability and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions. In vitro and in vivo studies evaluating the catalytic activity of CYP2B6 variants using various substrates will also be discussed. While implementation of pharmacogenomic testing for personalized drug therapy has made big progress, less data on pharmacogenetics of drug safety has been gained in terms of CYP2B6 substrates. Therefore, reviewing the existing evidence on population variability in CYP2B6 and ADR risk profiles suggests that, in addition to other factors, the knowledge on pharmacogenomics of CYP2B6 in patient treatment may be useful for the development of personalized medicine with regards to genotype-based prescription.

“…Indeed, selecting regimen combinations based upon known underlying favourable enzymatic profiles able to compensate in the opposite direction potential unfavourable enzymatic induction/inhibition of DDIs may preserve treatment options, outcomes, and adherence by reducing concentrations below/above the therapeutic range. In this regard, recent data showed a differential impact of the co-administration of nevirapine and antimalarial regimens when stratified by CYP2B6 polymorphisms [ 49 ]: the nevirapine-induced reduction of artemether and desbutyl-lumefantrine and increase of dihydroartemisinin and lumefantrine significantly differed between CYP2B6 c516GG versus TT genotypes [ 49 ]. If geographical PG data were easily and widely available, population-physiologically-based PK modelling could classify the same co-administration as contraindicated in some areas while recommended or neutral in others.…”
Pathocoenosis and syndemics theories have emerged in the last decades meeting the frequent need of better understanding interconnections and reciprocal influences that coexistent communicable and non-communicable diseases play in a specific population. Nevertheless, the attention to pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics interactions of co-administered drugs for co-present diseases is to date limitedly paid to alert against detrimental pharmacological combos. Low and middle-income countries are plagued by the highest burden of HIV, tuberculosis, malaria, and helminthiasis, and they are experiencing an alarming rise in non-communicable disorders. In these settings, co-infections and comorbidities are common, but no tailored prescribing nor clinical trials are used to assess and exploit existing opportunities for the simultaneous and potentially synergistic treatment of intertwined diseases. Pharmacoenosis is the set of interactions that take place within a host as well as within a population due to the compresence of two or more diseases and their respective treatments. This framework should pilot integrated health programmes and routine clinical practice to face drug–drug interaction issues, avoiding negative co-administrations but also exploiting potential favourable ones to make the best out of the worst situations; still, to date, guiding data on the latter possibility is limited. Therefore, in this narrative review, we have briefly described both detrimental and favourable physiopathological interactions between HIV and other common co-occurring pathologies (malaria, tuberculosis, helminths, and cardiovascular disorders), and we have presented examples of advantageous potential pharmacological interactions among the drugs prescribed for these diseases from a pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacogenetics standpoint.
“…CYP2B6 gene is located in 19q12–13.2, with a total length of 27.1 kb, including 11 exons which encode 491 amino acids [22] . A number of variants have been found in CYP2B6 such as NM_000767.5:c.516G>T ( CYP2B6 c.516G>T) variant which affects the activity of CYP2B6, and reduces the rate of human transformation of carcinogenic substances into inactive metabolites, which leads to the accumulation of carcinogenic substances, and a series of diseases [23–26] …”
Background:
Acute leukemia (AL) is a kind of malignant tumor of hematopoietic system. A number of studies have suggested that Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms are significantly associated with risk of AL. Present study performs meta-analysis to evaluate the association between
CYP2B6
c.516G>T variant and AL risk.
Methods:
Databases including PubMed, EMBASE, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Wanfang were searched for literatures to September 30, 2019, both in English and Chinese. Relative risk and its 95% confidence intervals were used to assess the associations. Statistical analyses of this meta-analysis were conducted by using STATA 13.0. software.
Results:
A total of 7 studies, including 1038 cases and 1648 controls, were analyzed. Our results indicated that
CYP2B6
c.516G>T variant was significantly related to an increased the risk of AL under dominant model, recessive model, homozygote model, and allelic model. In addition, subgroup analyses were also performed by disease classification, country, and study design. No significant associations were obtained between
CYP2B6
c.516G>T variant and the risk of AL under the recessive model in the design of hospital-based (relative risk = 0.98; 95% confidence interval: 0.95–1.01;
P
=
0.118).
Conclusion:
Our meta-analysis indicated that the
CYP2B6
variant is significantly associated with AL risk, in which
CYP2B6
c.516G>T is related to an increased risk of AL.
