AbstractThe influence of CYP2D6 genotype and CYP2D6 inhibitors on enantiomeric plasma levels of tramadol and O-desmethyltramadol as well as response to tramadol was investigated. One hundred and seventy-four patients received one hundred intravenous tramadol 3 mg/kg for postoperative analgesia. Blood samples drawn 30, 90, and 180 min after administration were analyzed for plasma concentrations of the enantiomers (+)-, (-)tramadol and (+)-, (-)O-desmethyltramadol by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Different CYP2D6 genotypes displaying zero (poor metabolizer (PM)), one (heterozygous individual (HZ)/intermediate metabolizer (IM)), two extensive metabolizer (EM), and three (ultra rapid metabolizer (UM)) active genes were compared. Concentrations of O-desmethyltramadol differed in the four genotype groups. Median (1/3 quartile) area under the concentration-time curves for (+)O-desmethyltramadol were 0 (0/11.4), 38.6 (15.9/75.3), 66.5 (17.1/118.4), and 149.7 (35.4/235.4) ng x h/ml for PMs, HZ/IMs, EMs, and UMs (P<0.001). Comedication with CYP2D6 inhibitors decreased (+) O-desmethyltramadol concentrations (P<0.01). In PMs, non-response rates to tramadol treatment increased fourfold compared with the other genotypes (P<0.001). In conclusion, CYP2D6 genotype determined concentrations of O-desmethyltramadol enantiomers and influenced efficacy of tramadol treatment.
