Evaluation of CYP2C19-Mediated Pharmacokinetic Drug Interaction of Tegoprazan, Compared with Vonoprazan or Esomeprazole
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: CYP2C19-mediated drug interactions of acid-reducing agents are clinically important given the high possibility of concomitant administration with CYP2C19 substrates. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of tegoprazan on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of a CYP2C19 substrate, proguanil, compared with vonoprazan or esomeprazole.
METHODS: A two-part, randomized, open-label, two-sequence, three-period crossover study was conducted in 16 healthy CYP2C19 extensive metabolizers (eight subjects per part). In each period, a single oral dose of atovaquone/proguanil 250/100 mg was administered alone or co-administered with tegoprazan 50 mg, esomeprazole 40 mg (Part 1 only) or vonoprazan 20 mg (Part 2 only). The plasma and urine concentrations of proguanil and its metabolite, cycloguanil, were measured up to 48 h post-dose. PK parameters were calculated using a non-compartmental method and compared between administered alone and co-administered with tegoprazan, vonoprazan or esomeprazole.
RESULTS: Co-administration of tegoprazan did not significantly affect the systemic exposure of proguanil and cycloguanil. In contrast, co-administration of vonoprazan or esomeprazole increased proguanil systemic exposure and decreased cycloguanil systemic exposure, and the magnitude of the corresponding change was greater with esomeprazole co-administration than vonoprazan co-administration.
CONCLUSION: Tegoprazan, unlike vonoprazan and esomeprazole, exhibited negligible…
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design.
