The deuterium kinetic isotope effect has been used to affect the cytochrome P450 metabolism of the deuterated versions of substances. This study compares the pharmacokinetics of caffeine, a Generally Recognized As Safe food and beverage ingredient, versus d9-caffeine, a potential caffeine alternative, and their respective metabolites at two dose levels in 20 healthy adults. A single dose of 50 mg or 250 mg of caffeine, or a molar-equivalent dose of d9-caffeine, were orally administered in solution with blood samples collected for up to 48 h post-dose. Plasma concentrations of parent and metabolites were analyzed using validated LC-MS/MS methods. Both d9-caffeine and caffeine were rapidly absorbed; however, d9-caffeine exhibited a higher (ca. 29%-43%) C and 4-5-fold higher AUC than caffeine, and lower C, lower AUC, and a 5-10-fold reduction in the relative exposure to the active metabolites of caffeine. Results were consistent in normal and rapid metabolizers, and both substances were well tolerated.

The worldwide legalization of medicinal cannabis has led to an increased use of products made by commercial operators. These products often contain minor cannabinoids such as cannabinol (CBN) which are advertised to improve sleep. Products are also available in which CBN is combined with conventional therapies, with a common product containing both CBN and the widely used sleep-aid melatonin.

Seralutinib, an inhaled, small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor in clinical development for the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), was evaluated for its potential as a perpetrator or victim of a metabolic and transporter-based drug-drug interactions in 2 phase 1 studies. In study 1, 24 participants received a cocktail of probe substrates: caffeine (CYP1A2), montelukast (CYP2C8), flurbiprofen (CYP2C9), midazolam (CYP3A), and pravastatin (OATP1B1/1B3), plus digoxin (P-gp) with or without seralutinib. In study 2, 19 participants received seralutinib with/without itraconazole, a strong CYP3A inhibitor, or fosaprepitant, a weak CYP3A inhibitor.

Background And Objective: The objective of this study was to characterize the effects of risankizumab on the pharmacokinetics of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A substrates in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) using a cocktail approach.
Methods: Patients with CD or UC (n = 20) received single doses of probe substrates for CYP1A2 (caffeine 100 mg), CYP2C9 (warfarin 10 mg), CYP2C19 (omeprazole 20 mg), CYP2D6 (metoprolol 50 mg), and CYP3A (midazolam 2 mg) before and after intravenous infusions of risankizumab 1800 mg once every 4 weeks for four doses. Serial blood samples were collected for determination of concentrations of the CYP probe drugs and metabolites with and without risankizumab.

Natural caffeine is found in many plants, including coffee beans, cacao beans, and tea leaves. Around the world, many beverages, including coffee, tea, energy drinks, and some soft drinks, have this natural caffeine compound. This paper reviewed the results of meta-studies on caffeine's effects on chronic diseases.
