Interventions

Participants are recruited based on their CYP2C9 genotype. This is blinded to the participant and the research team by a third party. The study is a crossover design, so participants will be treated w

All

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Aged 18 - 60 years 2. Caucasian (to limit genetic variation as much as possible) 3. Not known to have diabetes 4. No daily treatment with antidiabetic medication, statins, amitriptyline or other drugs that inhibit or require CYP2C9 or CYP3A4 metabolism 5. No cognitive impairment or visual impairment 6. Known CYP2C9 genotype – either normal (“wild type”) or two reduced function alleles

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Heterozygous CYP2C9 genotype i.e. only one reduced function allele 2. Use of any antifungal drug within the last month 3. Recent involvement (<30 days) in a clinical trial 4. Pregnancy or planning to conceive 5. Inability/unwillingness to comply with the protocol 6. Anaemia

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. Level of tolbutamide, and in the blood measured with UHPLC-MS/MS using blood samples taken at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 hrs, derive pharmacokinetic parameters from measures (CL, T1/2, AUC) 2. Level of tolbutamide, 4-hydroxytolbutamide and carboxytolbutamide in the urine measured with UHPLC-MS/MS using urine samples collected from 0 to 12 hours and from 12 to 24 hours 3. Metabolomics (Metabolon, MS/MS) will measured on T=0 hr samples
