Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The choice of an immunosuppressant after hepatic transplant is now more difficult than before because of the increasing number of drugs available.

Pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic and pharmacogenetic information can help to choose the best treatment and the best dose for each patient. The genetic polymorphism of enzymes metabolizing treatments can affect their efficacy and safety. Concerning tacrolimus, CYP3A5 activity is a major determinant of the dose needed to reach target concentrations. This study is aimed at evaluating the impact of both donor and recipient CYP3A5 genetic polymorphisms on tacrolimus exposure in patients with hepatic transplant.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Pharmacogenetics is a recent tool which could help to choose the best immunosuppressive therapy in patients with hepatic transplant. Indeed, the CYP3A5 gene has many polymorphisms and one of them, g.6986 A\>G, is the major determinant of the variability of expression of this protein. The allele \*1 (g6986A) leads to normal protein expression while the allele \*3 (g.6986G) causes lack of protein expression, and their different combinations induce a great variability in tacrolimus concentrations. As cytochromes are present in the liver and intestine, in hepatic transplant, tacrolimus exposure results from both recipient (enterocytes) and donor (liver) enzymes. Recent studies demonstrated a significant role of the genotype recipient on the dose/concentration relationship and on the dose needed to reach target concentrations. However, these studies were insufficient to analyze more precisely all impacts of this polymorphism because they did not include enough patients. The purpose of the investigators study is to evaluate the impact of donor and recipient CYP3A5 genetic polymorphism on tacrolimus exposure in patients with hepatic transplant after the first administration of tacrolimus and at 7 days post transplantation, when the dose has been adapted to avoid too high blood levels and to limit serious adverse reactions.
