Investigation of non-linear Mate1-mediated efflux of trimethoprim in the mouse kidney as the mechanism underlying drug-drug interactions between trimethoprim and organic cations in the kidney

The purpose of this study was to elucidate the involvement of Mate1 in the tubular secretion of trimethoprim and saturation of Mate1-mediated efflux to address the mechanisms underlying the pharmacokinetic drug interactions with trimethoprim. Trimethoprim is a more potent inhibitor of MATE2-K than MATE1 with K_i values (μM) of 0.030–0.28 and 2.4–5.9, respectively. Trimethoprim is a substrate of human MATE1 and MATE2-K with K_m values of 2.3 ± 0.9 and 0.018 ± 0.004 μM, and mouse Mate1, but not human OCT2, mouse Oct1 and Oct2. Pyrimethamine significantly reduced the renal clearance (CL_R) of trimethoprim (mL/min/kg) from 40.0 ± 5.1 to 20.1 ± 3.7 (p < 0.05). Trimethoprim was given to mice at three infusion rates (150, 500, and 1500 nmol/min/kg). Together with an increase in the plasma concentrations of trimethoprim, the CL_R (mL/min/kg) of trimethoprim decreased to 25.9 ± 3.2, 13.5 ± 5.7, and 8.92 ± 1.50 at the respective rates. Trimethoprim decreased the CL_R of rhodamine 123 in an infusion rate-dependent manner: 11.5 ± 1.3 (control), 5.17 ± 1.55, 1.31 ± 0.50, and 0.532 ± 0.180. These results suggest that Mate1 mediates the tubular secretion of trimethoprim, and at therapeutic doses, MATEs-mediated efflux can be saturated, and thereby, cause drug interactions with other MATE substrates.

Multicentric Analytical and Inter-observer Comparability of Four Clinically Developed Programmed Death-ligand 1 Immunohistochemistry Assays in Advanced Clear-cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

BackgroundPrevious studies have suggested increased clinical benefit with inhibition of programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)/programmed death-1 in patients with PD-L1–positive locally advanced/metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC). We examined the analytical and inter-observer comparability of PD-L1–positivity across 4 clinically developed immunohistochemistry assays in clear-cell RCC (CCRCC).Materials and MethodsRandomly selected archived, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded nephrectomy specimens from 201 patients with locally advanced CCRCC were screened using VENTANA SP142. From these, 30 cases were selected based on their tumor-infiltrating immune cell (IC) PD-L1 status (PD-L1-IC–positivity of < 1%, 1%-5%, or > 5%; 10 cases each). These cases were stained for PD-L1 using VENTANA SP142 and SP263, and DAKO 22C3 and 28-8, and scored for PD-L1 expression on IC and tumor cells (TC) by trained readers at 5 sites.ResultsAdjusted mean percentages of PD-L1-IC–positivity and PD-L1-TC–positivity varied from 4.0% to 4.9% and from 1.3% to 10.7%, respectively, between assays. Inter-assay differences in PD-L1-IC–positivity were small and non-significant (P = .1938 to .9963); for PD-L1-TC–positivity, significant differences were observed between VENTANA SP142 and the other assays (P ≤ .0001) and between VENTANA SP263 and DAKO 28-8 (P = .0248). Intra-class correlation values showed moderate-to-high inter-reader agreement for each assay for PD-L1-IC–positivity and for 3 assays for PD-L1-TC–positivity.ConclusionsIn this first multicenter analytical comparison study of PD-L1 assays in CCRCC, PD-L1–positivity could be assessed reproducibly using all 4 assays for IC and for 3 of the 4 assays for TC.
