Abstract
Relevance. The study of pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic drug interactions involving components of targeted medications demonstrates the lack of available data and the significant need for research aimed at describing the likelihood, extent, and clinical impact of proposed drug interactions for individual patients and for the population of patients with cystic fibrosis.
Objective. To describe a clinical case of a patient with cystic fibrosis F508del in the CFTR gene in combination with PIDS (Common Variable Immune Deficiency) a carrier of the potentially "problematic" CYP3A5 *3/*3 and SLCO1B1 *1/*5 genotypes for liver metabolism, with an assessment of the safety of the targeted therapy for cystic fibrosis.
Materials and methods. For genetic analysis, the isolated DNA was examined using the iPLEX Pro PGx panel (Agena Bioscience) in the "VeriDose® Core Panel" modification, the patient revealed: P-glycoprotein (P-gp) gene ABCB1 (rs1045642) G/G, APOE E2/E3, CYP1A2*1A/*1F, CYP2B6*1/*1, CYP2C19*1/*1 , CYP3A4*1/*1 , CYP3A5*3/*3 , PNPLA5 (RS5764010) C/C and SLCO1B1*1/*5 .
Results. The patient's biochemical abnormalities were clarified during the selection of a drug for targeted therapy of cystic fibrosis, as well as during the use and switching of targets. Clinically insignificant abnormalities in biochemical liver function parameters were not accompanied by clinical symptoms.
Conclusion. Modern pharmacogenetic testing capabilities have made it possible to identify a potentially "problematic" combination of CYP3A *3/*3 and SLCO1B1 *1/*5 genotypes in a patient, which is associated with changes in drug metabolism in the liver. Therefore, the use of pharmacogenetic testing in patients with genetic diseases opens up opportunities for personalization and improvement of pharmacotherapy safety, allowing for the prevention or delay of organ dysfunction to enhance.
