%X To investigate the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of volunteers carrying CYP2D6 genotypes with unknow metabolic phenotypes, a total of 22 volunteers were recruited based on the sequencing results. Peripheral blood and urine samples were collected at specific time points after oral administration of metoprolol. A validated high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was used to determine the concentrations of metoprolol and α-hydroxymetoprolol. Blood pressure and electrocardiogram were also monitored. The results showed that the main pharmacokinetic parameters of metoprolol in CYP2D6*1/*34 carriers are similar to those in CYP2D6*1/*1 carriers. However, in individuals carrying the CYP2D6*10/*87, CYP2D6*10/*95, and CYP2D6*97/*97 genotypes, the area under the curve (AUC) and half-life (t1/2) of metoprolol increased by 2-3 times compared to wild type. The urinary metabolic ratio of metoprolol in these genotypes is consistent with the trends observed in plasma samples. Therefore, CYP2D6*1/*34 can be considered as normal metabolizers, while CYP2D6*10/*87, CYP2D6*10/*95, and CYP2D6*97/*97 are intermediate metabolizers. Although the blood concentration of metoprolol has been found to correlate with CYP2D6 genotype, its blood pressure-lowering effect reaches maximum effectiveness at a reduction of 25 mmHg. Furthermore, P-Q interval prolongation and heart rate reduction are not positively correlated with metoprolol blood exposure. Based on the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model, this study clarified the properties of metoprolol in subjects with novel CYP2D6 genotypes and provided important fundamental data for the translational medicine of this substrate drug.
