Accuracy of prediction for in vivo changes in Clm,u, Clpo,u and Clpo for (S)-warfarin by coadministration of bucolome assessed as ratios of the respective Cl values in the presence to those in the absence of bucolome (expressed as %)

Predicted from In Vitro Data Obtained fromObserved in Patients
Human liver microsomesCYP2C9
Clm,u(B)/Clm,u 4.9a, 33.9b 2.0a, 17.3b 10.9  (1.8–23.2)
Clpo,u(B)/Clpo,u 17.2a, 42.5b 14.8a, 28.1b 15.9  (8.1–28.2)
Clpo(B)/Clpo 37.5a, 89.5b 32.4a, 59.7b 30.4  (15.6–53.7)
  • Data were obtained with use of Iu that were calculated with 10a (an active transport factor) and 1b(no assumptive active transport of bucolome into the hepatocytes) as A in eq. 9. Data in parenthesis are the 95% confidence intervals for the respective ratios obtained from patients. Detailed description for the equations used for calculating the ratios for the respective clearance values is given in the text.
