Study Details

The purpose of this pilot study is to gather preliminary data on the (1) contribution of the understudied drug metabolizing enzyme, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 2B17, to the metabolism of a widely used medication, diclofenac, and (2) impact of the UGT2B17 inhibitor and natural product, curcumin, on diclofenac pharmacokinetics. Results will inform future studies aimed to assess the effects of UGT2B17 genetic polymorphisms and co-consumed xenobiotics on the pharmacokinetics and toxicity risk of diclofenac and other UGT2B17 drug substrates.

Arms

  • Experimental: Arm 1: diclofenac alone (baseline)
    A single dose of diclofenac (25 mg capsule) will be administered by mouth to 5 participants (minimum 2 females) genotyped as extensive metabolizers (Arm 1A) and 5 participants (minimum 2 females) genotyped as poor metabolizers (Arm 1B). Plasma and urine will be collected from 0-12 hours. A washout of at least 3 days will elapse between Arm 1 and Arm 2.
  • Experimental: Arm 2: diclofenac + curcumin
    A single oral dose of diclofenac (25 mg capsule) and a single oral dose of curcumin (2,000 mg tablet) will be administered by mouth to the 5 participants genotyped as extensive metabolizers. Plasma and urine will be collected from 0-12 hours.

Primary Outcome Measure

Diclofenac area under the concentration vs. time curve (AUC) in UGT2B17 extensive metabolizers (EMs) [ Time Frame: 0-12 hours ]
