Abstract Aim Sirolimus is currently used off‐label for paediatric patients with vascular anomalies. However, the optimal dosage regimen for paediatric patients remains controversial. This study aimed to determine the optimal dosing regimen of sirolimus in these patients using a population pharmacokinetic (PK) model.

Pharmacogenetics may influence tacrolimus daily dose, but not urinary tubular damage markers in the long-term period after renal transplantation [PDF]
Background: The primary goal of this study was to evaluate the influence of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A5 (6986A>G) and ABCB1 (3435C>T) polymorphisms on tacrolimus (TAC) dosage regimen and exposure.

Background: CYP3A5 is the predominant sub-family of biotransformation enzymes in the liver and the genetic variations in CYP3A5 are an important determinant of inter-individual and inter-ethnic differences in CYP3A-mediated drug disposition and response.

Personalized tacrolimus dose requirement by CYP3A5 but not ABCB1 or ACE genotyping in both recipient and donor after pediatric liver transplantation. [PDF]
Tacrolimus (TAC) is the backbone of an immunosuppressive drug used in most solid organ transplant recipients. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at position 6986G>A in CYP3A5 has been notably involved in the pharmacokinetic variability of TAC.

5‐hydroxytryptamine type 3 (5‐HT3) receptor antagonists are used to treat nausea and vomiting and in the prevention of chemotherapy‐induced, radiation‐induced, and postoperative nausea and vomiting. Most of the 5‐HT3 receptor antagonists (i.e., ondansetron, tropisetron, dolasetron, palonosetron, and ramosetron) are metabolized by CYP2D6, but the extent

Traditional dosing strategies often rely on a “one‐size‐fits‐all” paradigm, assuming an “average” patient with typical demographic and pharmacological characteristics. In reality, this often overlooks existing between‐patient variability and can lead to suboptimal drug exposure or toxicity. This issue is especially pronounced in pediatric patients, who

Association Between the CYP3A5 Genotype and Blood Pressure [PDF]
We tested the hypothesis that the presence of a CYP3A5 * 1 allele is associated with increases in blood pressure in 2 studies of subjects with a total of 683 participants. The first study involving 271 subjects was part of a longitudinal study conducted at Indiana University Medical Center ...
