- W3127935346 abstract "Fırat et al. [[1]Fırat O. Yalçın N. Demirkan K. COVID-19 & antiepileptic drugs: Should we pay attention?.Seizure. 2020; 80: 240-241Google Scholar] discussed the potential drug-drug interactions between antiepileptic drugs and therapeutic drugs currently used in the management of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This piece of discussion is relevant and indeed is of utmost importance given that clinicians specialized in the management of COVID-19 may not be familiar with the use of antiepileptic drugs and thus they may be of little knowledge how best to manage the potential drug-drug interactions involving antiepileptic drugs and the therapeutic drugs for COVID-19. While we compliment the effort by Fırat et al. [[1]Fırat O. Yalçın N. Demirkan K. COVID-19 & antiepileptic drugs: Should we pay attention?.Seizure. 2020; 80: 240-241Google Scholar], we believe that in the current context where COVID-19 vaccines had been administered to the public in few countries, and soon to be distributed all around the world, we should discuss the potential interactions between COVID-19 vaccines and antiepileptic drugs. Many may not know that vaccines could modify the metabolism of the drug in the human body. Upon vaccination, an immune response that closely replicates the natural immune response to the infectious disease would be elicited, which serves to protect against the infection by the same or closely related pathogens. In contrary to our common belief, such an immune response does not merely involve the humoral arm of the immune system where B lymphocytes are triggered to produce antibodies, but it also involves the cellular arm of the immune system mediated by T lymphocytes to produce cytokines, most notably interferon-gamma [[2]Bernstein E.D. Gardner E.M. Abrutyn E. Gross P. Murasko D.M. Cytokine production after influenza vaccination in a healthy elderly population.Vaccine. 1998; 16: 1722-1731Google Scholar]. Specifically, administration of the COVID-19 vaccine BNT162b2 elicited strong antibody responses alongside robust CD4+ and CD8 + T-cell responses, where expansion of CD4+ and CD8 + T cells was observed, with a high fraction of these spike (S) protein-specific T-cells producing interferon-gamma [[3]Sahin U. Muik A. Vogler I. et al.BNT162b2 induces SARS-CoV-2-neutralising antibodies and T cells in humans.Preprint. medRxiv. 2020; https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.12.09.20245175Google Scholar]. In addition, administration of the COVID-19 vaccine mRNA-1273 CD4+ also elicited T-cell responses that produced interferon-gamma upon stimulation with S-specific peptides [[4]Jackson L.A. Anderson E.J. Rouphael N.G. et al.An mRNA vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 - preliminary report.N Engl J Med. 2020; 383: 1920-1931Google Scholar]. T-cell responses with the production of interferon-gamma are not specific to mRNA vaccines (BNT162b2, mRNA-1273), in which the vector-based COVID-19 vaccine ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 had been demonstrated to elicit similar responses [[5]Folegatti P.M. Ewer K.J. Aley P.K. et al.Safety and immunogenicity of the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine against SARS-CoV-2: a preliminary report of a phase 1/2, single-blind, randomised controlled trial [published correction appears in Lancet. 2020 Aug 15;396(10249):466] [published correction appears in Lancet. 2020 Dec 12;396(10266):1884].Lancet. 2020; 396: 467-478Google Scholar]. Cytokines such as interferon-gamma could lead to reduced expression of cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. An in vitro study [[6]Donato M.T. Guillén M.I. Jover R. Castell J.V. Gómez-Lechón M.J. Nitric oxide-mediated inhibition of cytochrome P450 by interferon-gamma in human hepatocytes.J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 1997; 281: 484-490Google Scholar] with human hepatocytes reported that exposure to interferon-gamma led to downregulation of CYP 1A2 and CYP 3A4. In addition, activities of CYP enzymes, as measured by the erythromycin breath test, inversely correlated with interferon-gamma production after administration of vaccine [[7]Hayney M.S. Muller D. Effect of influenza immunization on CYP3A4 activity in vivo.J Clin Pharmacol. 2003; 43: 1377-1381Google Scholar]. However, not all CYP enzymes could be affected by the production of interferon-gamma, wherein in vitro studies demonstrated that human hepatocytes treated with interferon-gamma had reduced expression for CYP 1A2, CYP 2C8, CYP 3A4, CYP 2B6, CYP 2E1, but no effect on the expression for CYP 2C9, CYP 2C19, and CYP 2C18 [[6]Donato M.T. Guillén M.I. Jover R. Castell J.V. Gómez-Lechón M.J. Nitric oxide-mediated inhibition of cytochrome P450 by interferon-gamma in human hepatocytes.J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 1997; 281: 484-490Google Scholar,[8]Aitken A.E. Morgan E.T. Gene-specific effects of inflammatory cytokines on cytochrome P450 2C, 2B6 and 3A4 mRNA levels in human hepatocytes.Drug Metab Dispos. 2007; 35: 1687-1693Google Scholar,[9]Qiu L.O. Linder M.W. Antonino-Green D.M. Valdes Jr., R. Suppression of cytochrome P450 2E1 promoter activity by interferon-gamma and loss of response due to the -71G&T nucleotide polymorphism of the CYP2E1*7B allele.J Pharmacol Exp Ther. 2004; 308: 284-288Google Scholar]. Antiepileptic drugs vulnerable to interactions with COVID-19 vaccines include carbamazepine, which is metabolized by the hepatic CYP 3A4 enzymes [[10]Lopez-Garcia M.A. Feria-Romero I.A. Fernando-Serrano H. Escalante-Santiago D. Grijalva I. Orozco-Suarez S. Genetic polymorphisms associated with antiepileptic metabolism.Front Biosci (Elite Ed). 2014; 6: 377-386Google Scholar]. There had been a case report [[11]Robertson Jr., W.C. Carbamazepine toxicity after influenza vaccination.Pediatr Neurol. 2002; 26: 61-63Google Scholar] of carbamazepine toxicity that developed 13 days following administration of the influenza vaccine. Besides, a case series [[12]Levine M. Jones M.W. Gribble M. Increased serum phenytoin concentration following influenza vaccination.Clin Pharm. 1984; 3: 505-509Google Scholar] found that serum phenytoin levels that increased temporarily by 46–170 % in certain patients could best be attributed to the influenza vaccination. The interaction with phenytoin is probably not as significant compared to carbamazepine since phenytoin is largely metabolized by CYP 2C9 and CYP 2C19 which the levels are not affected by interferon-gamma, while a minor fraction is metabolized by CYP 2C8 [[10]Lopez-Garcia M.A. Feria-Romero I.A. Fernando-Serrano H. Escalante-Santiago D. Grijalva I. Orozco-Suarez S. Genetic polymorphisms associated with antiepileptic metabolism.Front Biosci (Elite Ed). 2014; 6: 377-386Google Scholar]. In another prospective study [[13]Jann M.W. Fidone G.S. Effect of influenza vaccine on serum anticonvulsant concentrations.Clin Pharm. 1986; 5: 817-820Google Scholar] of 55 patients, mean serum concentrations of phenytoin and phenobarbital were significantly higher than baseline on day 7 after administration of influenza vaccine, while mean serum concentration of carbamazepine significantly increased from day 7 to day 14 after administration of influenza vaccine. Of note, phenobarbital is largely metabolized by hepatic CYP 2C9 with minor metabolism by CYP 2C19 and CYP 2E1 [[10]Lopez-Garcia M.A. Feria-Romero I.A. Fernando-Serrano H. Escalante-Santiago D. Grijalva I. Orozco-Suarez S. Genetic polymorphisms associated with antiepileptic metabolism.Front Biosci (Elite Ed). 2014; 6: 377-386Google Scholar]. Other antiepileptic drugs such as ethosuximide (metabolized by CYP 3A4, CYP 2E), clonazepam (metabolized by CYP 3A4), felbamate (metabolized by CYP 3A4, CYP 2E1), tiagabine (metabolized by CYP 3A4), and zonisamide (metabolized by CYP 3A) may also be susceptible to the interaction with COVID-19 vaccines, though there are no previous reports of drug-vaccine interaction involving these drugs [[10]Lopez-Garcia M.A. Feria-Romero I.A. Fernando-Serrano H. Escalante-Santiago D. Grijalva I. Orozco-Suarez S. Genetic polymorphisms associated with antiepileptic metabolism.Front Biosci (Elite Ed). 2014; 6: 377-386Google Scholar]. Although the currently available studies involve interactions between influenza vaccines and antiepileptic drugs, it appears reasonable to assume that the same could occur with COVID-19 vaccines due to interferon-gamma production from T-cell responses elicited by COVID-19 vaccines. Certainly, more studies are needed to investigate the potential interactions between COVID-19 vaccines and antiepileptic drugs, including if the effects differ between different types of COVID-19 vaccines. However, our concerns of potential interactions between COVID-19 vaccines and antiepileptic drugs should not be interpreted as a reason for patients with epilepsy to avoid COVID-19 vaccination or that the COVID-19 vaccination would be less effective. Instead, in the meantime, the clinicians should be vigilant towards such interactions, and patients should be advised to report symptoms of hypertoxicity, before the establishment of the clinical relevance of our concerns in the future studies.
