The steady-state concentrations of clarithromycin and azithromycin in plasma were compared with concomitant concentrations in epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and alveolar macrophages (AM) obtained in intrapulmonary samples during bronchoscopy and bronchoalveolar lavage from 40 healthy, nonsmoking adult volunteers. Mean plasma clarithromycin, 14-(R)-hydroxyclarithromycin, and azithromycin concentrations were similar to those previously reported. Clarithromycin was extensively concentrated in ELF (range of mean +/- standard deviation concentrations, 34.4 +/- 29.3 microg/ml at 4 h to 4.6 +/- 3.7 microg/ml at 24 h) and AM (480 +/- 533 microg/ml at 4 h to 99 +/- 50 microg/ml at 24 h). The concentrations of azithromycin in ELF were 1.01 +/- 0.45 microg/ml at 4 h to 1.22 +/- 0.59 microg/ml at 24 h, and those in AM were 42.7 +/- 28.7 microg/ml at 4 h to 41.7 +/- 12.1 microg/ml at 24 h. The concentrations of 14-(R)-hydroxyclarithromycin in the AM ranged from 89.3 +/- 52.8 microg/ml at 4 h to 31.3 +/- 17.7 microg/ml at 24 h. During the period of 24 h after drug administration, azithromycin and clarithromycin achieved mean concentrations in ELF and AM higher than the concomitant concentrations in plasma.

ABSTRACT This study was performed to investigate the intrapulmonary penetration of lascufloxacin in humans. Thirty healthy adult male Japanese subjects, allocated into five groups, received lascufloxacin in a single oral dose of 75 mg. Bronchoalveolar lavage and blood sampling were performed simultaneously in each subject at 1, 2, 4, 6, or 24 h after administration, and lascufloxacin concentrations in plasma, epithelial lining fluid, and alveolar macrophages were determined. Lascufloxacin was rapidly distributed to the epithelial lining fluid with a time to maximum drug concentration ( T max ) of 1 h, which was identical to that in plasma. The maximum concentration of drug ( C max ) values in plasma, epithelial lining fluid, and alveolar macrophages were 0.576, 12.3, and 21.8 μg/ml, respectively. The corresponding area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h (AUC 0–24 ) values were 7.67, 123, and 325 μg · h/ml. The mean drug concentrations in the epithelial lining fluid and alveolar macrophages were much higher than those in plasma at all time points examined, and the average site-to-free plasma concentration ratios fell within the ranges of 57.5 to 86.4 and 71.0 to 217, respectively. Drug levels in epithelial lining fluid and alveolar macrophages exceeded the MIC 90 values for common respiratory pathogens. (This study was registered at JAPIC under registration number JapicCTI-142547.)

ABSTRACT By way of bronchoscopy and bronchoalveolar lavage, intrapulmonary steady-state concentrations of micafungin administered at 150 mg daily to 15 healthy volunteers were determined at 4, 12, and 24 h after the third dose. The micafungin disposition was predominantly intracellular, with approximately 106% penetration into alveolar macrophages and 5% penetration into epithelial lining fluid.

ABSTRACTThe steady-state concentrations of solithromycin in plasma were compared with concomitant concentrations in epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and alveolar macrophages (AM) obtained from intrapulmonary samples during bronchoscopy and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in 30 healthy adult subjects. Subjects received oral solithromycin at 400 mg once daily for five consecutive days. Bronchoscopy and BAL were carried out once in each subject at either 3, 6, 9, 12, or 24 h after the last administered dose of solithromycin. Drug concentrations in plasma, ELF, and AM were assayed by a high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method. Solithromycin was concentrated extensively in ELF (range of mean [± standard deviation] concentrations, 1.02 ± 0.83 to 7.58 ± 6.69 mg/liter) and AM (25.9 ± 20.3 to 101.7 ± 52.6 mg/liter) in comparison with simultaneous plasma concentrations (0.086 ± 0.070 to 0.730 ± 0.692 mg/liter). The values for the area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h (AUC0–24values) based on mean and median ELF concentrations were 80.3 and 63.2 mg · h/liter, respectively. The ratio of ELF to plasma concentrations based on the mean and median AUC0–24values were 10.3 and 10.0, respectively. The AUC0–24values based on mean and median concentrations in AM were 1,498 and 1,282 mg · h/L, respectively. The ratio of AM to plasma concentrations based on the mean and median AUC0–24values were 193 and 202, respectively. Once-daily oral dosing of solithromycin at 400 mg produced steady-state concentrations that were significantly (P< 0.05) higher in ELF (2.4 to 28.6 times) and AM (44 to 515 times) than simultaneous plasma concentrations throughout the 24-h period after 5 days of solithromycin administration.
