Disease relevance of Aprepitant

  • Confirming and extending previous findings, the triple combination of a 5HT(3) antagonist, MK-869, and dexamethasone provided the best control of acute emesis [1].
  • Efficacy and tolerability of aprepitant for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in patients with breast cancer after moderately emetogenic chemotherapy [2].
  • Aprepitant pharmacokinetic parameters in ESRD patients were clinically similar when haemodialysis was initiated at 4 hours or 48 hours after aprepitant administration [3].
  • Other adverse events experienced by aprepitant recipients include anorexia, constipation, diarrhoea, nausea (after day 5 of the study) and hiccups [4].
  • In one trial, there was a higher incidence of serious infection or febrile neutropenia in the aprepitant plus standard therapy arm than the standard therapy plus placebo arm; this was attributed to a pharmacokinetic interaction between aprepitant and dexamethasone [4].
 

Psychiatry related information on Aprepitant

  • RESULTS: In the first cycle, 64% of patients in the aprepitant group and 49% in the standard therapy group had a complete response [5].

Gene context of Aprepitant

  • Collectively, these results indicated that aprepitant is both a substrate and a moderate inhibitor of CYP3A4 [18].
  • Aprepitant has been noted to produce modest decreases in plasma S(-)-warfarin concentrations, suggesting potential induction of CYP2C9 [24].
  • The contribution of human cytochrome P450 (P450) isoforms to the metabolism of aprepitant in humans was investigated using recombinant P450s and inhibition studies [18].
  • Furthermore, these behavioral effects were blocked by the selective NK1 receptor antagonist, MK-869 [25].
  • Lack of effect of aprepitant on hydrodolasetron pharmacokinetics in CYP2D6 extensive and poor metabolizers [26].
