Abstract: The purpose of this study was to propose a new method to predict in vivo drug-drug interactions (DDIs) for a high clearance drug from in vitro data. As the high clearance drug, NE-100 (N, N-dipropyl-2-[4-methoxy-3-(2- phenylethoxy)phenyl]ethylamine monohydrochloride) was used. First, approach based on Iu/Ki value was used for the prediction of DDIs between NE-100 and concomitant drugs. When the Ki values (Ki-cal) obtained from the microtiter plate (MTP) assay and the reported Ki values (Ki-rep) for these drugs were used to predict increases at levels of NE-100 AUCoral (AUCoral ratio), the AUCoral ratios from the Iu /Ki-cal correlated with those from the Iu/Ki-rep. This result suggests that the Kical from the MTP assay can be used for prediction of DDIs instead of the Ki-rep value. Second, a new approach combining the inhibition rate (R) calculated from the MTP assay and two physiological models was used to predict DDIs. When the AUCoral ratios of NE-100 by various drugs were predicted using the R value and the well-stirred model, the ratios were similar to those predicted using the Iu/Ki. However, after co-administration of drugs such as quinidine, propafenone and thioridazine (potent inhibitors of CYP2D6), the NE-100 AUCoral ratios predicted from the dispersion model was much greater than those from well-stirred model. This result shows that application of the dispersion model to the prediction method using the R value might sensitively and precisely predict the increased levels of AUCoral by DDIs for high clearance drug, compared with the prediction method using Iu/Ki value.
