Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study investigated the interindividual variability in the pharmacokinetics of gabapentin and tramadol in cancer pain patients. Concomitant magnesium oxide decreased the gabapentin exposure through the reduction of intestinal absorption extent and rate in healthy subjects. Patients with neuropathic pain also had the lower plasma disposition of gabapentin with concomitant magnesium oxide administration. In the patients with neuropathic pain, the genetic polymorphisms of organic cation transporters, OCTN1 and OCTN2, did not affect the pharmacokinetics of gabapentin.
A simultaneous and isocratic LC-MS/MS method for the determination of tramadol and O-, N-, N,O-desmethyl metabolites in the plasma of cancer patients has been established. This method possesses acceptable degrees of precision and accuracy in accordance with US FDA guidelines. Cancer patients had the interindividual variations in plasma concentrations of tramadol and its metabolites.
