The CYP2C19*17 genotype is associated with lower imipramine plasma concentrations in a large group of depressed patients

Abstract: CYP2C19 converts the tricyclic antidepressant imipramine to its active metabolite desipramine, which is subsequently inactivated by CYP2D6. The novel CYP2C19*17 allele causes ultrarapid metabolism of CYP2C19 substrates. We genotyped 178 depressed patients on imipramine for CYP2C19*17, and measured steady-state imipramine and desipramine plasma concentrations. Mean dose-corrected imipramine plasma concentration was significantly dependent on CYP2C19 genotype (Kruskal-Wallis test, P ¼ 0.01), with circa 30% lower… Show more

“…The 2C19*17 allele has been reported to be associated with increased enzyme activity, i.e., extensive metabolizer (EM) and accordingly lower plasma concentrations of imipramine and other drugs (Li-Wan-Po et al, 2010) (Schenk et al, 2010). We found a trend of gene-dose effect of 2C19*17 allele on the plasma AUC 0–48h of DA in human subjects (Fig.…”

“…With regard to UMs, CYP2C19*17 has been found to correlate with lower serum concentrations of several antidepressants compared with EM patients [40,89,90]; however, the exact clinical relevance of UM genotypes in antidepressant response warrants further investigation.…”

“…10 In Asian populations, the allele frequency of the CYP2C19*17 allele is approximately 6% and the CYP2C19*2 allelic variant has a frequency of about 30%. 18 CYP2C19 polymorphism impacts not only drug plasma levels, 19, 20, 21 but also the therapeutic outcome of psychotropic drugs. 22 …”
