Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmacology & Toxicology Student: Dominika Bezděková Supervisor: doc. PharmDr. Lukáš Červený, Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: IN VITRO STUDY OF DRUG-DRUG INTERACTIONS OF HIV PROTEASE INHIBITOR DARUNAVIR ON EFFLUX ABC TRANSPORTERS Abstract: Darunavir is a drug used in the therapy of HIV belonging to the group of protease inhibitors. These protease inhibitors are used as a part of the combination antiretroviral therapy. For the increase of bioavailability, darunavir is always used in combination with ritonavir or cobicistat. As the CYP3A4 and ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein) transporter substrate, darunavir is a drug with a high potential to drug interactions. Considering the amount of adverse effects that can be caused by darunavir, it is necessary to know these drug interactions for the safety of therapy. Inhibition of the intestinal ABCB1 by the co-administrated drugs could also lead to the increased bioavailability of darunavir and to reduction of frequency of administration leading to a cheaper therapy. This thesis studies the drug-drug interactions of darunavir with in vitro methods using two cell lines - MDCKII and Caco-2 cells. The results from the transport of darunavir across the MDCKII cell monolayer indicates that darunavir is a ABCB1...

Study of drug-drug interactions of antiviral drugs on intestinal transporters
Záboj, Zdeněk ; Červený, Lukáš (advisor) ; Vokřál, Ivan (referee)
Charles University Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmacology & Toxicology Student: Zdeněk Záboj Supervisor: PharmDr. Lukáš Červený, Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: Study of drugs interactions of antiviral drugs with intestinal transporters Sofosbuvir is an antiviral agent widely used in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C. This orally administered prodrug is a designed substrate of ATP-binding (ABC) efflux transporters, P- glycoprotein (ABCB1) and breast cancer resistance protein (ABCG2). ABCB1 and ABCG2 are important determinants of intestinal absorption and are the site of significant pharmacokinetic drug interactions, leading to changes in drug exposure. Pharmacokinetic drug interactions may be undesirable (increasing the toxicity of the treatment) or desirable (allowing dose reduction). Because sofosbuvir is often administered in combination regimens with other anti(retro)virotics, the aim of this thesis was to study the ability to enhance intestinal absorption of sofosbuvir. To study the pharmacokinetic drug interactions on ABCB1 and ABCG2, a widely established in vitro bi-directional transport method through a polarized monolayer formed by the Caco-2 cell line derived from colorectal cancer has been used. We analyzed the drug interactions of sofosbuvir on these efflux...

Determination of permeability and active transport of selected butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors in vitro
Machan, Radek ; Červený, Lukáš (advisor) ; Čečková, Martina (referee)
Charles University in Prague Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmacology & Toxicology Student: Radek Machan Supervisor: PharmDr. Lukáš Červený, Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: Determination of permeability and active transport of selected butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors in vitro European Medicine Agency (EMA) and Food and Drug Administration agency (FDA) emphasise drug membrane permeability and drug-drug interactions on ABC transporters expressed in physiological barriers should be investigated for compounds in preclinical studies or for those already clinically used but evidence free. In this work we aimed to assess the capability of several experimental butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors that had been designed to treat dementia to permeate blood-brain barrier and to elucidate role of ATP-binding (ABC) cassette transporters in this transport. For this purpose, we employed in vitro bidirectional transport study across monolayers formed by polarized and highly differentiated Caco-2 cells. The permeability values gained from measurements were similar to values of several commonly used drugs for treatment of CNS disorders (e.g. antidepressants, antiepileptics). In addition, the compounds showed values of efflux ratio (basolateral- to-apical/apical-to-basolateral) approximately one...
