| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Fimasartan is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist used to treat hypertension. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of fimasartan on the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of warfarin in healthy volunteers to meet regulatory requirements for drug marketing and labeling in Korea. METHODS: An open-label, 1-sequence, 2-treatment, 2-period crossover study was conducted in healthy male volunteers. The subjects were administered a single-dose of warfarin 25 mg on day 1. After a 7-day washout period, once-daily fimasartan 240 mg was administered every morning from day 8 to day 16. On day 11, warfarin 25 mg was administered concomitantly with fimasartan. Serial blood samples were collected for 144 hours after each warfarin dose. The plasma concentrations of R- and S-warfarin were analyzed by using HPLC-MS/MS, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated by using noncompartmental analysis. The maximal international normalized ratio (INR) and the AUC-INR curve were evaluated to assess warfarin pharmacodynamics. Tolerability was assessed via vital sign measurements, physical examinations, ECGs, clinical laboratory tests, and adverse events. RESULTS: A total of 15 healthy Korean men aged 20 to 39 years (mean [SD], 26.7 [5.1] years) and weighing 60.2 to 85.7 kg (mean, 71.4 [8.3] kg) participated in the study; 12 completed the study. The geometric mean ratios (GMRs [90% CIs]) of C(max) and AUC(0-last) for R-warfarin were 1.06 (0.97-1.16) and 1.07 (1.03-1.12), respectively. For S-warfarin, the GMRs (90% CIs) of C(max) and AUC(0-last) were 1.02 (0.94-1.11) and 0.99 (0.94-1.04). The INR values reached 1.93 (0.31) and 1.96 (0.37) at 36 hours and decreased to <1.2 at 144 hours after warfarin treatment alone and coadministered with fimasartan, respectively. The GMRs (90% CIs) of the maximal INR and AUC-INR curve were 1.01 (0.97-1.05) and 0.98 (0.96-1.01). One (7.7%) of the 13 subjects reported epistaxis during treatment with warfarin alone, and 2 (16.7%) of 12 subjects receiving the combination treatment experienced headache, skin erosion, and an increase in blood creatine phosphokinase. No subjects had an elevated INR >4 or reported any symptoms related to hypotension, including fainting or dizziness. CONCLUSION: Multiple doses of fimasartan did not seem to alter the pharmacodynamics or pharmacokinetics of warfarin in this small, select population of healthy male volunteers. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
