Risperidone (RIS; Figure 1), a benzisoxazole derivative, is a relatively new antipsychotic agent that combines serotonin
type 2 (5HT2) and dopamine type 2
(D2) receptor
antagonism[1]. RIS has been shown to be an effective antipsychotic,
affecting both the positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia, with a low incidence of extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS)
and a lack of anticholinergic
effects[2_3]. When administered orally to healthy volunteers, RIS was absorbed rapidly, achieved
a peak plasma concentration within 2.14
h[4], and displayed linear pharmacokinetics at doses between 0.5 mg and 25
mg[5]. RIS is extensively metabolized in the liver by CYP2D6 to a major metabolite, 9-hydroxyrisperidone (9-OH-RIS; Figure
1)[6_7], which is eliminated by renal
excretion[8], and CYP3A4 also catalyzes the formation of (-)-9-hydroxyrisperidone
in vitro[9_10]. Studies in
animals[8] and receptor binding in
vitro[8] and in
vivo[11] indicate that 9-OH-RIS has approximately 70% of the
pharmacological activity of RIS. Therefore, the total active risperidone moiety (RIS plus 9-OH-RIS) is considered to be the most clinically
relevant measure[12]. Although RIS has a half-life of 2_4 h in CYP2D6 extensive metabolizers and up to 20 h in poor metabolizers,
the pharmacokinetic profile of the active moiety after single and multiple doses was similar in extensive and poor metabolizers,
with an overall mean elimination half-life of 20
h[6,12_14].
Risperidone has been widely used to treat schizophrenia or schizophreniform disorders after it was put on the market in
1993 in China. However, the steady-state pharmacokinetics of RIS in Chinese patients, especially Chinese female patients,
who, relative to Chinese male patients, have a higher prevalence of
schizophrenia[15_20], higher serum levels of prolactin after
administration of RIS[21], receive less family concern, and have lower educational
levels[22,23], has not previously been
systematically studied. The aim of the present study was to determine the pharmacokinetics of repeated oral doses and to document
the safety of RIS in Chinese female patients suffering from schizophrenia or schizophreni-form diseases.
Materials and methods Drugs and reagents RIS (purity 99%) and 9-OH-RIS (purity 99%) standards were donated by XiĄŻan Janssen
Pharmaceutical (XiĄŻan, Shanxi, China). Quetiapine (IS; purity
>99.6%) was kindly provided by Hunan Dongting Pharmaceutical (Changde, Hunan, China). RIS tablets (batch no: AM
010910767, 1 mg/tablet) were kindly donated by XiĄŻan Janssen Pharmaceutical. High performance liquid chromatography
(HPLC) grade reagents (methanol, acetonitrile and ammonium acetate) were purchased from Tedia (Fairfield, OH, USA). Other
AR grade reagents were purchased from the Chemical Reagents Factory of Hunan province (Changsha, Hunan, China).
Apparatus Waters 2690 HPLC equipment system, micromass ZQ mass spectrometer (Wythenshawe, Manchester, UK)
equipped with an electrospray ionization (ESI) ion source, Compaq Deskpro Workstation, and Masslynx 3.5 software were
used.
Study subjects Chinese female in-patients aged 18_65 years were recruited to the study. All the subjects were diagnosed
with schizophrenia or schizophreniform disorders according to the Chinese Criteria of Mental Disorders (CCMD, 3rd edition),
completed during 1996_2000 by 114 renowned Chinese psychiatrists with reference to ICD-10 from WHO and DSM-IV from
American. On the basis of their medical history, a physical examination and routine laboratory tests, no patients had hepatic,
renal, cardiac, hematological or other diseases. Cigarettes and alcohol were restrained. Patients who were also being treated
with drugs known to inhibit or induce the activity of CYP2D6 or CYP3A4 were excluded. Written informed consent was
obtained from each parent or patientsĄŻ legal guardian. The Ethical Committee of Xiangya Second Hospital of Central South
University approved the protocol.
Experimental protocol The present study was an open label and single-center trial. All the subjects were treated using
a titration scheme. The titration scheme comprised
0.5 mg doses of RIS twice daily (bid) for 2 d, 1 mg bid for 5 d, 2 mg bid for 7 d, followed by 2 mg qd for 1 d. On d 15, following
an overnight fast, a final dose of RIS was administered in the morning and serial blood samples (2_3 mL) were collected before
the final dose and at 0.5, 1.25, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, and 48 h after the final dose. To confirm the steady-state concentrations of
RIS and 9-OH-RIS, blood samples for trough plasma concentrations were collected before the morning dose of RIS on d 13
and 14. Plasma was separated by centrifugation and stored at -80
°C . During the trial, all subjects had the same diet.
Safety assessments Adverse events (AE) were monitored throughout the trial, together with an assessment of their
severity and possible relationship to the administration of RIS. A complete physical examination was performed at screening
and at the end of the study. Vital signs, including blood pressure and pulse rate, were measured at screening, d 0 and 16, and
at the end of the study. A standardized 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) was performed at screening and on d 0 and 16.
Clinical laboratory tests, including hematology and clinical chemistry, were performed at screening and on d 0 and 16. Serum
prolactin concentration was determined at 7:00 AM on d 0 and 16, and at the end of the study.
Analytical methods Plasma concentrations of RIS and 9-OH-RIS were determined using a validated procedure described
elsewhere[24,25], involving liquid-liquid extraction of RIS and 9-OH-RIS and detection by high-performance liquid
chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS). Calibration curves were linear over the concentration range of
0.5 to 200 µg/L for RIS and 5 to 250 µg/L for 9-hydroxyrisperidone. The correlation coefficient obtained by linear regression
were 0.9905 for RIS, and 0.9926 for 9-OH-RIS. The limit of quantification was 0.5 µg/L for RIS and 5 µg/L for 9-OH-RIS.
Recovery of RIS and 9-OH-RIS was examined at 3 different concentrations. The recovery rates were greater than 80.3% for
RIS, and greater than 78.4% for 9-OH-RIS. Intra- and interassay variability was examined at 3 concentrations for RIS and
9-OH-RIS. The intra-assay variabilities, expressed as coefficients of variation
(n=5) were less than 8.1% for RIS, and less than
10.1% for 9-OH-RIS. The interassay variabilities were less than 12.8% for RIS and less than 14.2% for 9-OH-RIS.
Pharmacokinetic analysis The steady-state peak concentration
(Cssmax) and the time to the peak concentration
(Tmax) were recorded as observed. The terminal elimination rate constant
(Ke) was determined by linear regression of the terminal
points of the log-linear plasma concentration-time curve. The terminal-phase elimination half-life
(T1/2) was calculated as
0.693/Ke.
AUCss0_12 was calculated by using the linear trapezoidal rule. The apparent volume of clearance
(CL/F) and distribution (V/F) of RIS were calculated as
dose/AUCss0_12 and
CL/Ke, respectively. The steady-state trough plasma concentration
(Cssmix) was represented by the plasma concentration collected before RIS administration on d 18. The steady-state average plasma
concentration for the 0_12 h dosing interval
(Cssav) was calculated as
AUCss0_12/12. The pharmacokinetic parameters of the
active moiety (RIS plus
9-OH-RIS) were also calculated.
Statistical analysis All values are expressed as mean±SE (range). All statistical tests were 2-tailed and significance was
set at the 0.05 level. Differences in the mean values of physical examinations and clinical laboratory tests before and after the
study were compared by using a paired t-test.
Results
Forty subjects were originally enrolled, but 17 of these were excluded because they were outpatients or were comedicated
with drugs that might have interfered with the pharmacokinetics of the study drugs or interpretation of the results. The most
frequent comedications were benzodiaze-pines, antiparkinsonian drugs, antiepileptics, analgesics, and cardiovascular drugs.
A total of 23 subjects (age 28.3±9.1; BMI 23.0±3.1) completed the present pharmacokinetics study for RIS. All the subjects
were identified as extensive or medium metabolizers of CYP2D6 by phenotyping (dextrometh-morphan was used as the probe
drug).
The trough plasma concentrations of RIS and its meta-bolite, 9-OH-RIS, on d 13, 14, and 15 were not significantly different
(P>0.05), indicating that steady-state concentrations of RIS and its metabolite were achieved.
The mean pharmacokinetic parameters of RIS, 9-OH-RIS, and the active moiety (RIS plus 9-OH-RIS) are summarized in
Table 1. Mean steady-state plasma concentration-time curves are shown in Figure 2. After oral administration, RIS was
rapidly absorbed with a mean
Tmax of 1.6 h and 9-OH-RIS was quickly metabolized from the parent drug with a mean
Tmax of 2.5 h. Pharmacokinetic studies indicated that RIS had a mean half-life of 3.2 h, a small volume of distribution (approximately
34.1 L), and a low clearance (approximately
8.7 L/h); 9-OH-RIS had a long mean half-life of 24.7 h.
We found that the pharmacokinetics parameters of RIS varied greatly among individuals. Among the 23 patients, there
were 4 patients (approximately 17%) whose
Cssmax of RIS was below the limit of detection (0.5 µg/L). The coefficients of
variation (CV) of V/F and
CL/F were all 71% for RIS. The CV of
Cssmix was 105% for RIS.
AUCss0_12 also had a large
CV, and the CV of RIS was 90%. For
T1/2, the CV of RIS was 40%. Compared with that of RIS, the pharmacokinetic parameters of 9-OH-RIS
had lower CV values
(Cssmix 37%;
AUCss0_12 30%;
T1/2 32%). For the active moiety, the
CV values of
Cssmix,
AUCss0_12, and
T1/2 were 40%, 38%, and 32%, respectively.
Table 2 summarizes the overall incidence of AE according to the preferred terms. No deaths or serious side effects were
reported during the study. No subject developed extrapyramidal side effects following the administration of RIS. No
clinically significant abnormal physical examination findings, ECG results, laboratory values or vital signs was observed
during the study. However, serum prolactin chang-ed significantly
(P<0.05), increasing from 14.1±7.6 µg/L
before RIS was administered, to 87.2±35.7 µg/L after administration of RIS. There was no correlation between serum prolactin
concentration and the concentration of RIS, 9-OH-RIS, or the active moiety. Twenty-three patients experienced a total of 35
AE, of which the majority were rated mild in intensity. In patients receiving RIS, 30 of 35 AE were considered possibly or
probably related to the administration of RIS.
Discussion
When compared with data obtained in a population of white people with
schizophrenia[26], our data show that Chinese
female patients suffering from schizophrenia have higher steady-state trough plasma concentrations
(Cssmix) of RIS and
9-OH-RIS. In our study the of RIS and 9-OH-RIS were 19.3 and 79.5 µg/L, respectively; however, the corresponding values were
found to be 2.9 and 24.1 µg/L, respectively, in the previous
study[26]. A similar study also indicated that plasma
levels of the antipsychotic and its metabolite are at least 2_3 times higher in Chinese female subjects than in their Western
counterparts[27]. After dose-adjusting the of RIS and 9-OH-RIS in our study (RIS 221.6±198.7
µg·h·L-1; 9-OH-RIS 663.6±201.2
µg·h·L-1), which were much higher than
corresponding values found in two previous studies (RIS
41.6±23.4 µg·h·L-1; 9-OH-RIS 193.4±76.5
µg·h·L-1[28])(RIS 59.6±16.3
µg·h·L-1; 9-OH-RIS 162.1±19.2
µg·h·L-1[29]). Some well-known inter-ethnic differences in
drug metabolism deserve to be considered. There are some ethnic characteristics that might have contributed to this finding:
for example the activity of the metabolic enzymes (CYP2D6 or CYP3A4), body weight, and lean body mass. Additional
investigations are needed to explain this observation. In any case, the discovery of the relatively higher RIS and 9-OH-RIS
plasma concentrations in Chinese female patients may be useful in optimizing the clinical treatment protocol for RIS.
The present study shows that the pharmacokinetic
parameters of RIS show large interindividual variability in Chinese female patients. This is consistent with the results of a
previous study[26,30]. Variability between patients was notable for RIS, but remained modest for 9-OH-RIS in our study. The
reason for this might be that 9-OH-RIS is eliminated by renal excretion, whereas RIS is extensively metabolized by the enzyme
CYP2D6, which has high intersubject variability in intrinsic metabolic capacity, despite the fact that there is a much lower
incidence of poor metabolizers in the Asian
population[31_36]. When the clinically relevant psychoactive moiety, consisting
of the sum of RIS plus 9-OH-RIS, was measured, the CV of the pharmacokinetic parameters was lower than that of RIS; ie,
there was a reduction in the profound differences in plasma concentrations between individuals.
The absolute bioavailability of RIS is approximately
70%[5,12], which clearly indicates that there is a first-pass effect for
RIS. Of note, an earlier study demonstrated that RIS is a substrate of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a kind of transmembrane
transporter of an ATP-dependent efflux pump for a wide range of
drugs[37]. In the human gastrointestinal tract, P-gp is found
in high concentrations on the apical surfaces of superficial columnar epithelial cells of the colon and distal small bowel. High
levels of P-gp are also found on the apical surfaces of epithelial cells in the small biliary ductules, small ductules of the
pancreas, proximal ductules of the kidneys, and adrenal glands. P-gp is richly expressed on the subapical surface of the
epithelium of the choroids plexus of the brain (which forms the blood-cerebrospinal fluid barrier) as well as the luminal surface
of the endothelium of the blood capillaries of the brain (blood-brain
barrier)[38_41]. P-gp functions to limit the absorption and,
potentially, systemic exposure to its substrates (eg risperidone, cyclosporine, tacrolimus, and talinolol). Intestinal
P-gp also exhibits wide interindividual variation in its expression (8- to
10-fold)[42]. Whether the metabolizing enzymes (CYP2D6 or
CYP3A4) or P-gp, or both primarily contribute to interindividual variability is a topic for further study.
RIS treatment was conducted safely in all 23 subjects. However, in our study RIS treatment resulted in high serum
prolactin, which was consistent with previous
studies[43,44]. Knegtering et
al indicated that the plasma concentration of
9-OH-RIS correlated significantly with increases in plasma
prolactin[44]. A recent study also showed that plasma
concentrations of the RIS active moiety might play a part in predicting the clinical response and occurrence of extrapyramidal symptoms
when treating patients with RIS[45]. Therefore, routine therapeutic drug monitoring may be useful to optimize the treatment
protocol. For Chinese female patients, an additional investigation with more samples is needed to acquire clearer results.
In conclusion, RIS showed large interindividual variations in pharmacokinetic parameters, indicating that systemic
exposure to RIS and 9-OH-RIS in female Chinese schizophrenic patients is higher than that experienced by white Caucasian
patients. Doses for individual patients should be carefully titrated and the patientsĄŻ prolactin levels should be monitored
carefully, to minimize side effects. Larger studies regarding the PK/PD relationship might be needed to determine the optimal
dose of RIS in Chinese female patients.
