It has been difficult to experimentally reproduce synergistic effects of ketoconazole on terfenadine-induced torsade de pointes. We assessed proarrhythmic effects of terfenadine (30 mg/kg, p.o.) with/without ketoconazole (100 mg/kg, p.o.) pretreatment using the chronic atrioventricular block cynomolgus monkeys with repeated-measured design (n = 4). Terfenadine with ketoconazole pretreatment repeatedly induced non-sustained torsade de pointes in each animal, although terfenadine alone did not induce it at all. Thus, the chronic atrioventricular block cynomolgus monkeys can be used for studying drug interaction-associated torsade de pointes, providing a non-clinical strategy to circumvent untoward drug interactions in patients specially under polypharmacy.
