homeostasis/metabolism
• docetaxel M-2 metabolites are not detected in hepatic microsomes unlike in wild-type microsomes treated with docetaxel
• however, M-2 metabolites are detected in intestinal microsomes
• docetaxel accumulation in the small intestines is decreased 4-fold compared to in Del(15Cyp3a57-Cyp3a59)1Ahs Cyp3a13tm1Ahs homozygotes following intravenous injection of docetaxel
• however, upon oral administration of docetaxel plasma levels are reduced 16.6 fold compared to in Del(15Cyp3a57-Cyp3a59)1Ahs Cyp3a13tm1Ahs homozygotes
• oral bioavailability is decreased to 1.8% compared to 8.1% in wild-type mice
• clearance of docetaxel is reduced compared to in wild-type mice
