Effect of <i>CYP1A2</i> polymorphism on the pharmacokinetics of agomelatine in Chinese healthy male volunteers

Abstract

The rs762551 A, rs2470890 T and rs2472304 A genotype presented a significantly lower level of agomelatine exposure (AUC, Cmax ) compared with the rs762551 C, rs2470890 C and rs2472304 G genotype in Chinese healthy subjects. It suggested that the rs762551, rs2470890 and rs2472304 genetic polymorphism might be associated with the marked interindividual variability of agomelatine, and the pharmacokinetic profile of agomelatine may be different in different races.
