The Use of Human Hepatocytes to Select Compounds Based on Their Expected Hepatic Extraction Ratios in Humans
Abstract
Purpose The present investigation retrospectively evaluates the use of human hepatocytes to classify compounds into low, intermediate or high hepatic extraction ratio in man. Methods A simple approach was used to correlate the in vivo hepatic extraction ratio of a number of compounds in man (literature and in-house data) with the corresponding in vitro clearance which was determined in human hepatocytes. The present approach assumes that, for compounds eliminated mainly through liver metabolism, intrinsic clearance is the major determinant for their in vivo hepatic extraction ratio and subsequently their bioavailability in man. The test compounds were selected to represent a broad range of extraction ratios and a variety of metabolic pathways. Results The present data show that in vitro clearances in human hepatocytes are predictive for the hepatic extraction ratios in vivo in man. Most of the test compounds (n = 19) were successfully classified based upon human hepatocyte data into low, intermediate or high hepatic extraction compounds, i.e. compounds with potential for high, intermediate or low bioavailabilities in humans. Conclusions The present approach, validated so far with 19 test compounds, appears to be a valuable tool to screen for compounds with respect to liver first-pass metabolism at an early phase of drug discovery.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
