Palovarotene, a cytochrome P450 3A4 substrate, is under investigation for the treatment of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), an ultra-rare genetic disorder
Despite known differences in metabolism of cytochrome P450 substrates, this trial demonstrated that palovarotene is metabolized similarly between Japanese and non-Japanese individuals
Palovarotene dose adjustments are not necessary for Japanese patients with FOP
