2C or Not 2C: CYP2C Induction Studies for Successful Preclinical Risk Assessment (Webinar)
Webinar Presenters: Becky Campbell, Principal Scientist in Program Oversight, and Andrew G. Taylor, Ph.D., Technical Support Manager for Services
Abstract
As a part of IND-enabling preclinical drug development studies companies are required to meet regulatory expectations to evaluate the induction potential of their compound for the cytochrome P450 CYP enzymes CYP1A2, 2B6, 2C8, 2C19 and 3A4. While only CYP1A2, 2B6 and 3A4 must be assessed in the initial induction panel, any observed induction of CYP3A4 requires further investigation of induction potential for enzymes in the CYP2C family due to shared activation by the PXR nuclear receptor pathway. This webinar will focus on CYP2C induction and will emphasize when to include CYP2C induction in a study, how to design the study to generate meaningful data and meet the regulatory requirements, what endpoints to measure, and how to interpret results.
Keypoints covered in this webinar include:
- Enzyme Induction studies in DDI risk prediction
- Crosstalk and other mechanistic considerations
- Conditions that warrant 2C investigation
- Regulatory expectations for induction data
- Standard CYP2C induction assay design
- Positive controls
- Appropriate test systems
- Endpoints (mRNA versus activity)
- Efficient planning to anticipate CYP2C inclusion
- Possibility of metabolites masking induction when looking at activity as an endpoint
- How to interpret results
