A previous study suggested that fluvoxamine inhibition potency
toward CYP1A2 is 10 times greater in vivo than in vitro. The present study was designed to determine whether the same gap exists for
CYP2C19, another isozyme inhibited by fluvoxamine. In vitro studies
examined the effect of nonspecific binding on the determination of
inhibition constant (Ki) values of
fluvoxamine toward CYP2C19 in human liver microsomes and in a
cDNA-expressed microsomal (Supersomes) system using
(S)-mephenytoin as a CYP2C19 probe.
Ki values based on total added fluvoxamine
concentration (Ki,total) and unbound fluvoxamine concentration (Ki,ub) were
calculated, and interindividual variability in
Ki values was examined in six nonfatty
livers. Ki,total values varied with
microsomal protein concentration, whereas the corresponding
Ki,ub values were within a narrow range (70-80 nM). In vivo inhibition constants
(Kiiv) were obtained from a study of the
disposition of a single oral dose (100 mg) of the CYP2C19 probe
(S)-mephenytoin in 12 healthy volunteers receiving
fluvoxamine at 0, 37.5, 62.6, and 87.5 mg/day to steady state. In this
population, the ratio of (S)-4-hydroxy-mephenytoin formation clearances (uninhibited/inhibited) was positively correlated with fluvoxamine average steady-state concentration with an intercept of 0.85 (r2 = 0.88, p < 0.001). The mean (±S.D.) values of
Kiiv based on total and unbound plasma
concentrations were 13.5 ± 5.6 and 1.9 ± 1.1 nM,
respectively. Comparison of in vitro and in vivo
Ki values, based on unbound fluvoxamine
concentrations, suggests that fluvoxamine inhibition potency is roughly
40 times greater in vivo than in vitro.
