Abstract
- Aims: Antimalarial biguanides are metabolized by CYP2C19, thus genetic variation at the CYP2C locus might affect pharmacokinetics and so treatment outcome for malaria.<br />Materials & Methods: Polymorphisms in CYP2C19 and CYP2C9 in 43 adult Gambians treated with chlorproguanil/dapsone for uncomplicated malaria were assessed. Chlorcycloguanil pharmacokinetics were measured and associations with CYP2C19 and CYP2C9 alleles and CYP2C19 metabolizer groups investigated.<br />Results: All CYP2C19/CYP2C9 alleles obeyed Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. There were 15 CYP2C19/2C9 haplotypes with a common haplotype frequency of 0.23. Participants with the CYP2C19*17 allele had higher chlorcycloguanil area under the concentration versus curve at 24 h (AUC(0-24)) than those without (geometric means: 317 vs 216 ng.h/ml; ratio of geometric means: 1.46; 95% CI: 1.03 to 2.09; p = 0.0363) and higher C(max) (geometric mean ratio: 1.52; 95% CI: 1.13 to 2.05; p = 0.0071).<br />Conclusion: CYP2C19*17 determines antimalarial biguanide metabolic profile at the CYP2C19/CYP2C9 locus.
