NCT03710395

Brief Summary

This study aims to investigate the influence of the c.421C\>A genetic polymorphism of the ABCG2 / BCRP transporter in the concentration ratio of nifedipine in maternal milk:plasma in hypertensive breastfeeding women attended at the Gynecology and Obstetrics Service of the Medical School of Ribeirão Preto, of the University of São Paulo. Thus, plasma and breast milk samples are being collected from patients in chronic use of the drug (n=30) within 15 to 30 days postnatal.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Nifedipine concentration in plasma/milk ratio

    The concentration ratio will be determined as (nifedipine concentration in plasma)/(nifedipine concentration in breast milk).

    After reaching steady state (at least 15 days of treatment), samples will be collected before first nifedipine dosing in the morning.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Nifedipine concentration in plasma

    After reaching steady state (at least 15 days of treatment), samples will be collected before first nifedipine dosing in the morning.

  • Nifedipine concentration in milk

    After reaching steady state (at least 15 days of treatment), samples will be collected before first nifedipine dosing in the morning.

Study Arms (2)

Wild homozygous for ABCG2 c.421C>A

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Chronic hypertensive breastfeeding women (18-45 years old) genotyped as wild homozygous for ABCG2 c.421C\>A.

Procedure: Blood and breast milk samplingDrug: Nifedipine

Variant genotypes for ABCG2 c.421C>A

EXPERIMENTAL

Chronic hypertensive breastfeeding women (18-45 years old) genotyped as heterozygous or mutant homozygous for ABCG2 c.421C\>A.

Procedure: Blood and breast milk samplingDrug: Nifedipine

Interventions

At least 15 days after starting treatment with 20 mg slow-release nifedipine every 12 hours. Blood and breast milk will be sampled before first dosing in the morning.

Also known as: Biological samples for nifedipine analysis
Variant genotypes for ABCG2 c.421C>AWild homozygous for ABCG2 c.421C>A

Chronic hypertensive breastfeeding women will be treated with slow-release 20 mg nifedipine, twice a day.

Also known as: 20 mg nifedipine (slow-release)
Variant genotypes for ABCG2 c.421C>AWild homozygous for ABCG2 c.421C>A

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 45 Years
Sexfemale(Gender-based eligibility)
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Chronic hypertensive breastfeeding women
  • Patients being treated with 20 mg slow-release nifedipine every 12 hours for at least 15 days

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients in use of ABCG2 inhibitors (omeprazole, pantoprazole, ritonavir, saquinavir, imatinib, efavirenz, nicardipine, abacavir, tacrolimus, ciclosporin A, cannabidiol);
  • Patients who presented nifedipine adverse drug reactions
  • Patients whose blood pressure normalized after delivery
  • Patients who interrupted breastfeeding during the study
  • Patients who did not return to the hospital for the clinical protocol.
