A clinical study investigating the pharmacokinetic interaction between NN703 (tabimorelin), a potential inhibitor of CYP3A4 activity, and midazolam, a CYP3A4 substrate

Abstract: This study shows that administration of NN703 and midazolam, a CYP3A4 substrate, leads to a significant increase in exposure of midazolam. This is consistent with NN703 inhibition of CYP3A4 activity.

“…The midazolam (generic midazolam supplied by Novartis Germany AG) dose was 5 mg given orally as solution, which is below the recommended sedative dose range of 7.5 to 15 mg but within the 2‐ to 8‐mg range of midazolam doses used to test CYP3A4/5 activity 12 14 . The solution was prepared from an intravenous dosing solution diluted in 30 mL of water.…”

“…Compared with other CYP3A probes, e.g. erythromycin, midazolam is not a substrate of P-glycoprotein (Takano et al, 1998), but a pure CYP3A substrate, neither an inhibitor or inducer of CYP3A, which makes it more suitable for evaluating in vivo drug-drug interaction or phenotyping (Lam et al, 2003;Ma et al, 2006;Streetman et al, 2000Streetman et al, , 2001Zdravkovic et al, 2003). The other advantages of using midazolam included a strong correlation between in vivo midazolam CL and in vitro hepatic CYP3A content (r = 0.93, p < 0.01) and the short elimination half-life after both i.v.…”

“…Tabimorelin failed to show beneficial effects on GH release in adult patients with GHD in a Phase II trial . Furthermore, tabimorelin was reported to inhibit CYP3A4, which may lead to unexpected side effects . To overcome this drawback, Novo Nordisk has developed some compounds derived from tabimorelin, such as NNC‐26‐1167, although these have not been evaluated in clinical trials so far.…”

“…Tabimorelin increased GH release as well as production of insulin‐like growth factor‐1 (IGF‐1) and IGF binding protein 3 (IGFBP‐3) with subtle changes in adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol, and prolactin in healthy male subjects, while only 11% of patients with GHD responding to tabimorelin with a peak GH concentration >5 μg/L . Furthermore, tabimorelin was reported to inhibit CYP3A4, which may lead to unexpected side effects . To overcome this drawback, Novo Nordisk has developed some compounds derived from tabimorelin including NNC‐26‐1167, although these have never been tested in clinical studies.…”
