OBJECTIVE: Cyclosporine A (CsA) is a substrate of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). Recently, a newly discovered intron 6 single-nucleotide polymorphism in CYP3A4 (rs35599367 C>T), defining the CYP3A4*22 allele, has been linked to reduced hepatic expression and activity of CYP3A4. In the present study, the clinical impact of this single-nucleotide polymorphism was investigated in a cohort of patients receiving a CsA-based immunosuppressive regimen. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 172 de-novo kidney transplant recipients, receiving CsA/mycophenolate mofetil as immunosuppressive therapy and participating in the Fixed-Dose Concentration Controlled study, were genotyped for the new CYP3A4*22 allele. CsA C(0) and/or C(2) levels were measured on days 3 and 10 and in months 1, 3, 6, and 12 after transplantation. Plasma creatinine concentrations, delayed graft function (DGF), and biopsy-proven acute rejection were recorded. RESULTS: The CYP3A4*22 allele was significantly associated with a higher risk of DGF compared with the CYP3A4*1/*1 patients after adjustment for known risk factors [odds ratio (OR)=6.34, confidence interval (CI(95%): 1.38-29.3), P=0.015]. Mixed-model analysis demonstrated that the overall creatinine clearance was 20% lower in CYP3A4*22 allele carriers compared with CYP3A4*1/*1 patients [CI(95%) (-33.1 to -7.2%), P=0.002]. For ABCB1 3435C>T, T-variant carriers had a decreased risk of developing DGF compared with CC patients [CT: OR=0.30, CI(95%) (0.11-0.77), P=0.011; TT: OR=0.18, CI(95%) (0.05-0.67), P=0.011]. CONCLUSION: CYP3A4*22 constitutes a risk factor for DGF and worse creatinine clearance in patients receiving CsA-based immunosuppressive therapy. Therefore, pretransplant genotyping for the CYP3A4*22 allele might help clinicians to identify patients at risk of DGF and poor renal function when treated with CsA.
