ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES: To identify possible associations of CYP2D6, CYP3A4/5, and ABCB1 gene polymorphisms with the efficacy and safety of antipsychotics in adolescents with acute psychotic episodes. METHODS: We examined the associations of pharmacogenetic factors with the efficacy and safety of antipsychotics in 101 adolescents with acute psychotic episodes. The diagnosis on admission was "Brief psychotic disorder" (F23.0-23.9 by ICD-10). All patients were administered antipsychotics for 14 days. Treatment efficacy and safety were assessed using the PANSS, CGAS, CGI-S(I), UKU SERS, BARS, and SAS scales. Pharmacokinetic genotyping was performed for the CYP2D6*4, *10, ABCB1 1236C>T, 2677G>T, and 3435C>T genes. RESULTS: CYP2D6 intermediate metabolisers had "Micturition disturbances" more often than extensive metabolisers (24.2 vs. 7.4%; p=0.026). "Wild" homozygote ABCB1 3435C>T CC was associated with more prominent akathisia. Haplotype analysis of three ABCB1 polymorphisms revealed that the "wild" alleles "C-G-C" (ABCB1 1236-2677-3435) were associated with higher risk of "Reduced salivation" (OR=2.95; 95% CI=1.35-6.45; p=0.0078). CONCLUSIONS: CYP2D6 intermediate metabolism was associated with the risk of urinary difficulties under treatment with antipsychotics. We found that "wild" homozygotes ABCB1 1236C>T, 2677G>T, and 3435C>T were predictors of adverse drug effects caused by treatment with antipsychotics.
