CYP2C8 and Antimalaria Drug Efficacy [PDF]
Malaria is a major infectious disease. In the last 10 years it has killed more than 20 million people, mainly small children in Africa. The highly efficacious artemisinine combination therapy is being launched globally, constituting the main hope for fighting the disease. Amodiaquine is a main partner in these combinations.

Comparative analysis of CYP2C8-medidated drug-drug interactions produced by CYP2C8 inhibitors, gemfibrozil versus clopidogrel, focusing on the inhibition of drug distribution in UDP-glucuronosyltransferase prior to oxidation [PDF]
The glucose-lowering drug pioglitazone undergoes hepatic CYP2C8-mediated biotransformation to its main metabolites. The antiplatelet drug clopidogrel is metabolized to clopidogrel acyl-β-d-glucuronide, which was recently found to be a strong time-dependent inhibitor of CYP2C8 in humans.

Amiodarone N‐Deethylation by CYP2C8 and its Variants, CYP2C8*3 and CYP2C8 P404A [PDF]
Abstract: Amiodarone is a potent Class III antiarrhythmic drug. The N‐deethylation of amiodarone to desethylamiodarone is known to be catalyzed by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C8. In the present study, amiodarone N‐deethylation by the CYP2C8s, CYP2C8*1 (wild‐type), CYP2C8*3, and CYP2C8 P404A (Pro404Ala substitution in exon 8), was investigated by their ...
