          Abstract

          RESUMEN Siponimod es un medicamento inmunosupresor selectivo, desarrollado como la primera terapia oral para la esclerosis múltiple secundaria progresiva activa. Este medicamento actúa modulando el receptor de esfingosina 1 fosfato (S1P), como antagonista de S1P1 y S1P5, evitando así la salida de linfocitos desde los nódulos linfáticos y previniendo procesos inflamatorios en el Sistema Nervioso Central que desencadenan una desmielinización. Existe amplio conocimiento científico respecto a que la administración del medicamento a pacientes va a depender de sus características farmacogenéticas, por lo que la FDA recomienda fuertemente realizar un estudio de genotipificación de la enzima que metaboliza siponimod, CYP2C9, cuyas variantes genéticas *2 y *3 clasifican a pacientes como metabolizadores pobres, extensivos o rápidos. Para pacientes homocigotos de CYP2C9*3 siponimod está totalmente contraindicado. Adicionalmente, antes de su prescripción se debe realizar un electrocardiograma, evaluaciones del estado de anticuerpos, oftálmica, estado de vacunación contra varicela y recuento de linfocitos periféricos, ya que el efecto del medicamento es dependiente de la dosis administrada, por lo que se realiza un proceso de titulación en dosis desde los 0,25mg hasta los 2 mg. El protocolo farmacoterapéutico de siponimod es reflejo fidedigno de la utilidad de la farmacogenética en la medicina personalizada..

          Translated abstract

          Siponimod is a selective immunosuppressive medication, developed as the first oral therapy for active secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. This medication acts by modulating the sphingosine 1 phosphate (S1P) receptor, as an antagonist of S1P1 and S1P5, thus preventing the egress of lymphocytes from lymph nodes and preventing inflammatory processes in the Central Nervous System that trigger demyelination. There is extensive scientific knowledge regarding the administration of the medication to patients, which will depend on their pharmacogenetic characteristics. Therefore, the FDA strongly recommends conducting a genotyping study of the enzyme that metabolizes siponimod, CYP2C9, whose genetic variants *2 and *3 classify patients as poor, extensive, or rapid metabolizers. Siponimod is completely contraindicated for patients who are homozygous for CYP2C9*3. Additionally, before prescribing it, an electrocardiogram, assessments of antibody status, ophthalmic evaluation, varicella vaccination status, and peripheral lymphocyte count should be conducted, as the medication's effect is dose-dependent. Therefore, a titration process is carried out starting from 0.25mg up to 2 mg. The pharmacotherapeutic protocol of siponimod is a reliable reflection of the utility of pharmacogenetics in personalized medicine.

          Lymphocyte egress from thymus and peripheral lymphoid organs is dependent on S1P receptor 1.

          Adaptive immunity depends on T-cell exit from the thymus and T and B cells travelling between secondary lymphoid organs to survey for antigens. After activation in lymphoid organs, T cells must again return to circulation to reach sites of infection; however, the mechanisms regulating lymphoid organ exit are unknown. An immunosuppressant drug, FTY720, inhibits lymphocyte emigration from lymphoid organs, and phosphorylated FTY720 binds and activates four of the five known sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors. However, the role of S1P receptors in normal immune cell trafficking is unclear. Here we show that in mice whose haematopoietic cells lack a single S1P receptor (S1P1; also known as Edg1) there are no T cells in the periphery because mature T cells are unable to exit the thymus. Although B cells are present in peripheral lymphoid organs, they are severely deficient in blood and lymph. Adoptive cell transfer experiments establish an intrinsic requirement for S1P1 in T and B cells for lymphoid organ egress. Furthermore, S1P1-dependent chemotactic responsiveness is strongly upregulated in T-cell development before exit from the thymus, whereas S1P1 is downregulated during peripheral lymphocyte activation, and this is associated with retention in lymphoid organs. We find that FTY720 treatment downregulates S1P1, creating a temporary pharmacological S1P1-null state in lymphocytes, providing an explanation for the mechanism of FTY720-induced lymphocyte sequestration. These findings establish that S1P1 is essential for lymphocyte recirculation and that it regulates egress from both thymus and peripheral lymphoid organs.

            Multiple sclerosis

            Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common chronic inflammatory, demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system in young adults. This disorder is a heterogeneous, multifactorial, immune-mediated disease that is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. In most patients, reversible episodes of neurological dysfunction lasting several days or weeks characterize the initial stages of the disease (that is, clinically isolated syndrome and relapsing-remitting MS). Over time, irreversible clinical and cognitive deficits develop. A minority of patients have a progressive disease course from the onset. The pathological hallmark of MS is the formation of demyelinating lesions in the brain and spinal cord, which can be associated with neuro-axonal damage. Focal lesions are thought to be caused by the infiltration of immune cells, including T cells, B cells and myeloid cells, into the central nervous system parenchyma, with associated injury. MS is associated with a substantial burden on society owing to the high cost of the available treatments and poorer employment prospects and job retention for patients and their caregivers.

              Siponimod versus placebo in secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (EXPAND): a double-blind, randomised, phase 3 study

              No treatment has consistently shown efficacy in slowing disability progression in patients with secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (SPMS). We assessed the effect of siponimod, a selective sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptor1,5 modulator, on disability progression in patients with SPMS.
