Paradox of Modern Drug Paradox of Modern Drug DevelopmentDevelopment

● Clinical trials provide evidence of efficacy and safety at usual doses in populationspopulations

● Physicians treat iindividual ndividual patients who can vary widely in their response to drug therapy

Treatment of Pulmonary Tuberculosis

•Approximately 20% of the patients treated with Rifampicin and INA develop hepatotoxicity.

•Metabolic enzyme of INH is NAT2.

•Rifampicin strongly induces many drug metabolizing enzymes.

CIOMS Working Group on Pharmacogenetics and Pharmacoeconomics

• Membership: Academia (3), drug regulatory agencies (14) and the

pharmaceutical industry (13) –University of Tokyo, MHLW, Yamanouchi

• Targets: Terminology, impact, cost, regulation, ethics etc. of pharma

cogenomics and pharmacogenetics

• Pharmacoeconomic issues in Pharmacogenetics–Database relating Pharmacogenetics–Regulatory Perspectives–Pharmacogenetics: Unresolved Issues and Barriers to Progress–Ethical Issues–Progress reports regarding pharmacogenetics

CIOMS が作成するレポートは、国際的な強制力は持たないものの、 ICH 等を通じて各国の医薬品行政に影響を及ぼす可能性が強いので、その動向に注意する必要がある。

Development and RegulationDevelopment and Regulation Aim: Develop ethical, social and economical infrastructure for

appropriate use of pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics Scope: examine and analyze efforts of regulatory authorities a

nd industries relating to pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics and establish its proper use in drug development and clinical practice.

Case 1 Dose-dependency : Inconsistency of plasma concentration

was observed in dose escalation.  → We could explain this phenomenon by different number of the

subjects with decreased CYP450 activity enrolled at different dose groups. (→ Go forward )

Case 2 Bio-equivalence Study→ We could complete our goal by enrolling small number of

subjects genotyped as same before the trial, for additional formula application or generic drug development.

Case 3 Undesirable contribution of genetic factor → The finding suggested that the candidate compound should be

changed positively to a backup derivative in an early stage. Case 4 Suggestive in vitro data of contribution

polymorphic CYP450→ We could not find the contribution of the genotypes in vivo on

the level of plasma concentration (→ Go forward safely )

Have genetic testing aided drug development   ?? ?
