Entecavir (ETV) is a first-line antiviral drug against the hepatitis B virus. This study was designed to investigate whether ETV pharmacokinetics changes during pregnancy and the underlying mechanism. The results showed that ETV exposure in plasma was higher in pregnant rats than in nonpregnant rats, whereas the exposure after delivery was recovered to that in nonpregnant rats. Because 70% of orally dosed ETV is eliminated by kidney, the effects of estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4), 2 important hormones during pregnancy, on ETV-related renal transporters were investigated. Our results revealed that the activities of the ETV-related renal transporters hOAT1, hOAT3, hMATE1, and hMATE2-K were clearly inhibited by E2 and P4, resulting in reduced ETV accumulation in transporter-transfected cell models. However, the cumulative urinary excretion of ETV in pregnant rats exhibited no significant difference compared to nonpregnant rats, although the endogenous creatinine clearance in pregnant rats was 1.5-fold that of nonpregnant rats. In conclusion, ETV plasma exposure is increased during pregnancy, but ETV renal excretion displays no significant alteration. This may be because, during pregnancy, increased glomerular ETV filtration compensated for the decrease in renal tubular ETV secretion that occurs by E2- and P4-mediated inhibition of related transporters.
