Evaluation of the drug-drug interaction potential for trazpiroben (TAK-906), a D 2 /D 3 receptor antagonist for gastroparesis, towards cytochrome P450s and transporters.
2021
Trazpiroben (TAK-906), a peripherally selective dopamine D2/D3 receptor antagonist, is being developed for the treatment of patients with gastroparesis. The potential of trazpiroben to act as a perpetrator or a victim for cytochrome P450 (CYP)- or transporter- mediated drug-drug interactions (DDIs) was evaluated following the latest regulatory guidelines.In vitro studies revealed that trazpiroben is metabolised mainly through a non-CYP pathway (56.7%) by multiple cytosolic, NADPH-dependent reductase, such as aldo-keto reductase and short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase including carbonyl reductases. Remaining metabolism occurs through CYP3A4 and CYP2C8 (43.3%). Trazpiroben is neither an inhibitor nor an inducer of major CYP enzymes at a clinically relevant dose. It is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP) 1B1/1B3, but is not an inhibitor of transporters listed in the DDI guidelines at a clinically relevant dose. This is consistent with findings from CYP3A and P-gp-based clinical assessment showing no substantial change (≤2-fold) in trazpiroben exposure when co-administered with itraconazole.Collectively, trazpiroben has low potential of enzyme-mediated DDIs and is unlikely to act as a perpetrator of transporter-mediated DDIs but there may be a potential to act as a victim of OATP1B1/1B3 DDI that will be evaluated clinically.
