    Abstract:
    This study explored the association of 14 single nucleotide polymorphisms in three genes coding for influx transporters (SLC22A1, SLCO1B1, and SLCO1B3), two genes coding for efflux transporters (ABCB1 and ABCG2), and four genes coding for enzymes (CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A5) with the pharmacokinetics of imatinib in Japanese patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated by a population pharmacokinetic analysis based on 622 plasma samples from 34 patients at steady state. Approximately 4.6-fold variability in individual clearance was observed (range, 3.4-15.5 L/hr). The individual estimated clearance was significantly increased in patients with the SLCO1B3 334GG genotype (median value ± standard deviation, 9.5 ± 3.1 L/hr; n = 19) compared with SLCO1B3 334TT and TG genotypes (7.0 ± 3.1 L/hr; n = 15) (P = 0.019). Patients with the ABCB1 3435CC genotype had significantly higher imatinib clearance (12.7 ± 3.0 L/hr; n = 7) compared with patients with ABCB1 3435CT and TT genotypes (7.9 ± 2.7 L/hr; n = 27) (P = 0.035). In conclusion, the present study suggests that single nucleotide polymorphisms of the influx transporter SLCO1B3 and the efflux transporter ABCB1 were functionally associated with individual variability of imatinib pharmacokinetics in Japanese patients with chronic myeloid leukemia.
