4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Therapeutic Uses

/EXPL THER/ BACKGROUND: Psoralen plus ultraviolet (UV) A (PUVA) is the standard treatment for early stage mycosis fungoides (MF). When 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP) is used in PUVA therapy, it often produces intolerance reactions such as nausea, vomiting and headache. OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether 5-methoxypsoralen (5-MOP) is a safe and effective alternative to 8-MOP in PUVA therapy for MF. METHODS: A retrospective database search and chart review was done to identify patients with MF who received PUVA with either 5-MOP or 8-MOP as initial monotherapy at our institution. Between 1990 and 2004, 14 patients [seven men and seven women; mean age 70 years, range 51-82; National Cancer Institute disease stages IA (n = 6) and IB (n = 8)] received 5-MOP, and 24 patients [21 men and three women; mean age 58 years, range 28-89; disease stages IA (n = 11), IB (n = 12) and IIB (n = 1)] received 8-MOP. RESULTS: Twelve of 14 patients (86%) in the 5-MOP group and 22 of 24 (92%) in the 8-MOP group had a complete response to PUVA. These two subgroups of complete responders did not differ significantly in terms of PUVA therapy duration, number of treatments or cumulative UVA dose. They also did not differ significantly in terms of relapse-free rate [8% (one of 12) vs. 23% (five of 22)] or time to relapse [17 months (range 4-31) vs. 14 months (range 4-33)]. Moreover, PUVA maintenance therapy with either 5-MOP or 8-MOP in a subset of patients [26% (nine of 34)] did not affect long-term relapse-free status either. CONCLUSIONS: 5-MOP and 8-MOP have comparable therapeutic efficacy when used in PUVA therapy for MF.

5-Methoxypsoralen, in combination with UVA, is commonly used as a photochemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of psoriasis ... .

BACKGROUND: After oral intake, 5-methoxypsoralen (5-MOP) is as effective as 8-MOP for PUVA therapy for psoriasis, with a lower incidence of acute cutaneous side effects. OBJECTIVE: We compared bath-water delivery of 5-MOP and 8-MOP for photochemotherapy of psoriasis. METHODS: Twenty-two patients underwent phototesting with 0.0003% 5-MOP or 8-MOP aqueous solutions. Twelve patients with palmar psoriasis were studied with a side-to-side comparison, and 10 patients with recurrent plaque-type psoriasis were treated with one therapy or the other. RESULTS: Minimal phototoxic dose (MPD) values were 2.8 +/- 1.2 J/sq cm with 8-MOP and 2.0 +/- 1.2 J/sq cm with 5-MOP (p < 0.01). Both therapies cleared palmar lesions but 8-MOP required more UVA irradiation (46.3 +/- 21.0 J/sq cm vs 30.2 +/- 21.5 J/sq cm; p < 0.01) and more exposures (21.0 +/- 6.0 vs 17.0 +/- 5.0; p = 0.02). Bath-5-MOP-UVA was also more effective in the treatment of plaque-type psoriasis (cumulative UVA doses, 56.8 +/- 39.2 vs 59.1 +/- 27.9 J/sq cm; number of exposures, 20.0 +/- 5.7 vs 21.6 +/- 4.7), but these differences were not significant (p = NS). Patients developed an intense tan significantly earlier with 5-MOP than with 8-MOP (3.5 +/- 0.5 weeks vs 4.4 +/- 0.5 weeks; p < 0.01). CONCLUSION: Bath-5-MOP-UVA was more phototoxic than bath-8-MOP-UVA. It was more effective in the treatment of palmar psoriasis, whereas its greater pigmentogenic activity appeared to have an adverse effect on therapeutic effectiveness in the treatment of plaque-type psoriasis.

5-Methoxypsoralen, a naturally occurring linear furocoumarin, has been successfully used in combination with ultraviolet (UV) A irradiation [psoralen plus UV (PUVA)] to manage psoriasis and vitiligo. In patients and volunteers, PUVA 5-methoxypsoralen causes a dose-related increase in cutaneous photosensitivity. However, mean minimum phototoxic doses (MPD) were 30 to 50% greater with 5-methoxypsoralen than with 8-methoxypsoralen within individuals; this suggests lower photoactivity with 5-methoxypsoralen. In comparative clinical trials of parallel design, psoriasis clearance rates of > 90% or > 97% were observed in similar numbers of patients (60 to 77%) receiving oral PUVA 5-methoxypsoralen (typically 1.2 mg/kg) or oral PUVA 8-methoxypsoralen (0.6 mg/kg) treatment. Generally, 5-methoxypsoralen recipients required a greater total UVA exposure than 8-methoxypsoralen recipients to achieve end-point. However, study end-point was achieved sooner with oral or topical PUVA 5-methoxypsoralen in a small number of patients with psoriasis who received both treatments simultaneously and contralaterally. Up to 56% of patients with vitiligo achieved > 75% repigmentation with 5-methoxypsoralen (oral or topical) combined with UV irradiation (lamp or sun); the face and trunk were the most responsive areas. Lack of response to PUVA 5-methoxypsoralen treatment was observed in up to 16% of patients with psoriasis and, in 1 trial, in 22% of those with vitiligo. Lesion spreading during treatment of vitiligo was also observed in 7 (19%) patients in 1 study. The incidence and severity of adverse events was generally lower in PUVA 5-methoxypsoralen 1.2 mg/kg than in PUVA 8-methoxypsoralen 0.6 mg/kg recipients. Nausea and/or vomiting, pruritus and erythema were the most commonly reported adverse events in the short term; they occurred about 2 to 11 times more frequently in 8-methoxypsoralen than 5-methoxypsoralen recipients within clinical trials. Adverse hepatic events after oral administration of the drug were uncommon. Long term tolerability data for PUVA 5-methoxypsoralen are scarce; however, carcinogenicity was not reported during a 14-year observation period of 413 patients with psoriasis. CONCLUSION: Similar lesion clearance rates were observed with oral 5- or 8-methoxypsoralen plus UVA exposure in patients with vitiligo or psoriasis, although patients given 5-methoxypsoralen often required a greater total UV exposure than 8-methoxypsoralen recipients. The incidence of short term cutaneous and gastrointestinal adverse effects is markedly less with 5-methoxypsoralen than with 8-methoxypsoralen, which is an advantage, although the long term tolerability of 5-methoxypsoralen has yet to be fully established. Nevertheless, in appropriately selected patients, PUVA 5-methoxypsoralen therapy may be recommended as an alternative first-line systemic treatment option for the management of vitiligo or psoriasis.

5.4 Metabolism/Metabolites

PURPOSE: To discuss the contribution of psoralen and bergapten metabolites on psoralens toxicity. METHODS: Computational chemistry prediction of metabolic reactions and toxicophoric groups based on the expert systems Derek and Meteor. RESULTS: a total of 15 metabolites were suggested for both psoralen and bergapten based on phase 1 and 2 biotransformations until the 3rd generation. Five toxicophoric substructures were shared among psoralen, bergapten and their corresponding metabolites; one toxicophoric marker (resorcinol) was only identified in bergapten and its biotransformation products. CONCLUSION: Although the toxic effects of psoralens are well known and documented, there is little information concerning the role of their metabolites in this process. We believe this work add to the knowledge of which molecular substructures are relevant to the process of metabolism and toxicity induction, thus guiding the search and development of more effective and less toxic drugs to treat vitiligo.

A number of studies have demonstrated that cytochrome P450 (P450) converts furanocoumarin derivatives into reactive molecules, which form covalent bonds to biomolecules. 5-Methoxypsoralen (5-MOP) is a natural furanocoumarin from apiaceous plants. In this study, we examined the effect on 5-MOP metabolism of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CYP2A13. We used Escherichia coli-generated recombinant enzymes of wild-type CYP2A13*1 and five variants, CYP2A13*4 (R101Q), CYP2A13*5 (F453Y), CYP2A13*6 (R494C), CYP2A13*8 (D158E), and CYP2A13*9 (V323L). In high-performance liquid chromatography analyses of 5-MOP metabolic products, CYP2A13*1 converted 5-MOP into 5-MOP dihydrodiol; K(m) and V(max) values of the reaction were 1.44 +/- 0.17 uM and 4.23 +/- 0.36 nmol/(min x nmol P450), respectively. The generation of a dihydrodiol from 5-MOP implies that conversion by CYP2A13 causes toxicity due to the formation of covalent bonds with DNA or proteins. Most of the CYP2A13 variants could metabolize 5-MOP; K(m) values for CYP2A13*5, *6, *8, and *9 were 1.63 =/- 0.12, 1.36 +/- 0.10, 0.85 +/- 0.09, and 0.58 +/- 0.06 uM, respectively, and V(max) values were 3.20 +/- 0.13, 4.69 +/- 0.13, 2.34 +/- 0.07, and 1.84 +/- 0.09 nmol/(min x nmol P450), respectively. However, the processing of 5-MOP by CYP2A13*4 was not detectable. Based on this data, we hypothesize that SNPs within the CYP2A13 gene affect metabolism of 5-MOP in humans.
