Summary

The authors concluded that hepatic OATP plays a significant role in the PK of GS-9857. P-glycoprotein inhibition plays a far smaller role in increasing GS-9857 concentrations. Based upon this data, co-administration of GS-9857 with cyclosporine or other inhibitors of OATP cannot be recommended, and future studies will inform dosing recommendations.

Study Design

This was an open label, single and multiple dose four cohort study in 98 healthy volunteers. Participants were administered a single dose of GS-9857 100 mg alone or in combination with inhibitors or inducers of drug transporters or CYP isoenzymes. These drugs included rifampin 600 mg x 1 dose fasted, or rifampin 600 mg daily for seven days fed. Geometric means ratios and 90% Confidence Intervals for GS-9857 were estimated and compared to pre-specified lack of PK alteration boundaries 70% - 143%. Safety was assessed by routine laboratory and clinical monitoring. Five subjects discontinued the study drug during the study period.

Study Results

The authors concluded that GS-9857 concentrations were significantly increased by CsA (AUC 9.4 fold, Cmax 19 fold).
