AIM: Cyclosporine is an immunosuppressant drug used to prevent allograft rejection. It is metabolized by CYP3A4 and CYP3A5, has a narrow therapeutic index, and variable pharmacokinetics. Here, we investigated whether CYP3A5∗3 and CYP3A4∗18B polymorphisms contribute to inter-individual pharmacokinetic variability in healthy subjects. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Fifty-six healthy Chinese subjects were enrolled in the...
