ABSTRACT WCK 4282 is a combination product of cefepime (FEP) and tazobactam (TAZ) in a 1:1 ratio currently under development for the treatment of multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections. We investigated the effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of WCK 4282 in 48 subjects with various degrees of renal function. Subjects were categorized on the basis of their Cockcroft-Gault equation-estimated creatinine clearance (CLCR). We enrolled 6 subjects each into those with mild (CLCR, 60 to <90 ml/min), moderate (CLCR, 30 to <60 ml/min), or severe (CLCR, <30 ml/min) renal impairment and those with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring hemodialysis and 24 healthy control subjects (CLCR, ≥90 ml/min). Healthy subjects and subjects with mild and moderate renal impairment received a single 90-min infusion of 4 g of WCK 4282 (2 g FEP and 2 g TAZ). Subjects with severe renal impairment and ESRD received 2 g of WCK 4282 (1 g FEP and 1 g TAZ) over 90 min. The plasma exposure of FEP-TAZ increased as renal function decreased. In subjects with mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment and ESRD, the mean exposure (area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity) of FEP and TAZ increased by 1.3- and 1.2-fold, 2.3- and 2.3-fold, 4.7- and 4.0-fold, and 8.5- and 11.6-fold, respectively. The urinary recovery of FEP and TAZ decreased with increasing renal impairment. There were no adverse events reported during the study. The findings suggest that dose adjustments for WCK 4282 will be required according to the degree of renal impairment. A single infusion of WCK 4282 was found to be safe and well tolerated in subjects with normal and impaired renal function.

ABSTRACT WCK 5222 is a novel β-lactam–β-lactam-enhancer combination of cefepime (FEP) and zidebactam (ZID). ZID is a novel β-lactam enhancer with a dual action of binding to Gram-negative penicillin-binding protein 2 (PBP2) and β-lactamase inhibition. WCK 5222 is being developed as a new therapeutic option for the treatment of complicated multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogen infections. We investigated the effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of WCK 5222 in 48 subjects based on Cockcroft-Gault-estimated creatinine clearance (CLCR). We enrolled mild (n = 6; CLCR, 60 to <90 ml/min), moderate (n = 6; CLCR, 30 to <60 ml/min), and severe (n = 6; CLCR, <30 ml/min; not on dialysis) impairment, end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis (HD) (n = 6), and matched normal controls (n = 24; CLCR, ≥90 ml/min). Healthy control subjects and mild and moderate renal impairment subjects received a single 60-min intravenous (i.v.) infusion of 3 g WCK 5222 (2 g FEP/1 g ZID); severe renal impairment and HD subjects received a single 60-min i.v. infusion of 1.5 g WCK 5222 (1 g FEP plus 0.5 g ZID). Body and renal clearance decreased, and plasma half-life (t1/2) and the area under the concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity (AUC0–∞ [h µg/ml]) increased in a graded relationship with severity of renal impairment for both FEP and ZID. Our findings suggest that dose adjustments for WCK 5222 will be required according to the degree of renal impairment. Overall, WCK 5222 (FEP-ZID) was found to be safe and well tolerated in subjects with normal and impaired renal function.

ABSTRACT This study evaluates the effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of telbivudine. Thirty-six subjects were assigned, on the basis of creatinine clearance (CLCR), to 1 of 5 renal function groups with 6 to 8 subjects per group: normal renal function; mild, moderate, or severe renal impairment; or end-stage renal disease [ESRD] requiring hemodialysis. Subjects received a single oral dose of telbivudine at 600 mg (normal function and mild impairment), 400 mg (moderate impairment), or 200 mg (severe impairment and ESRD); plasma and/or urine samples were collected over a 48-h period for pharmacokinetic analyses. Telbivudine was well tolerated by all subjects. The pharmacokinetics of 600 mg of telbivudine were comparable for subjects with mild renal impairment and normal renal function. Likewise, for subjects with moderate to severe impairment, including ESRD, reduced doses from 200 to 400 mg produced plasma exposure similar to that for subjects with normal renal function. These results indicate that the pharmacokinetics of telbivudine were dependent on renal function, especially for subjects with moderate to severe renal impairment or ESRD. Apparent total plasma clearance, renal clearance (CLR), and urinary excretion of telbivudine decreased as renal function deteriorated. A linear relationship was established between CLR and CLCR. In ESRD subjects, a routine 3.5- to 4-h hemodialysis session removed telbivudine from plasma at an extraction ratio of ∼45%, representing a ∼23% reduction in total exposure. These results suggest that while no adjustment of the telbivudine dose appears necessary for subjects with mild renal impairment, dose adjustment is warranted for those with moderate to severe renal impairment or ESRD in order to achieve optimal plasma exposure.

ABSTRACTCeftolozane-tazobactam is a novel antipseudomonal cephalosporin with a β-lactamase inhibitor. We investigated the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of ceftolozane-tazobactam in subjects with various degrees of renal function. In two phase I, open-label studies, a single dose of ceftolozane-tazobactam was administered as a 1-h intravenous infusion to 24 subjects with normal, mild, or moderate renal impairment (1,000/500 mg) and six subjects with severe renal impairment (500/250 mg). Six subjects with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) received two doses of ceftolozane-tazobactam (500/250 mg each), pre- and posthemodialysis (post-HD). PK parameters were determined by noncompartmental methods. Plasma exposure to ceftolozane-tazobactam increased as renal function declined with only slightly increased exposures in subjects with mild renal impairment; the median area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-∞) for ceftolozane and tazobactam increased 1.4- and 1.2-fold, respectively. In subjects with moderate renal impairment, the AUC0-∞increased 2.5- and 2.2-fold for ceftolozane and tazobactam, respectively. In subjects with severe renal impairment, the dose-normalized median AUC0-∞for ceftolozane and tazobactam increased 4.4- and 3.8-fold, respectively. In ESRD subjects, ceftolozane and tazobactam concentrations declined rapidly following the start of HD, with approximately 66 and 56% reductions in overall exposure based on the AUC0-∞before and after dialysis. Slight increases in exposure with mild renal impairment do not warrant a dose adjustment; however, subjects with moderate or severe renal impairment and those on HD require a decrease in the dose, a change in the frequency of administration, or both to achieve exposures within the established safety and efficacy margins of ceftolozane-tazobactam. Ceftolozane-tazobactam was well tolerated by all renal impairment groups.

ABSTRACT Many antibiotics require dose adjustments in patients with renal impairment and/or in those undergoing hemodialysis. Omadacycline, the first aminomethylcycline antibiotic in late-stage clinical development, displays activity against a broad spectrum of bacterial pathogens, including drug-resistant strains. Data from completed phase 3 studies of omadacycline for the treatment of acute bacterial skin and skin structure infections (ABSSSI) and community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) showed intravenous (i.v.) to once-daily oral omadacycline to be clinically effective and well tolerated. To determine if the dosing of omadacycline should be adjusted in patients with impaired renal function, a phase 1 study examining the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of i.v. omadacycline (100 mg) was conducted in subjects with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on stable hemodialysis (n = 8) and in matched healthy subjects (n = 8). i.v. administration of omadacycline produced similar plasma concentration-time profiles in subjects with ESRD and healthy subjects. Further, in subjects with ESRD, similar values of the PK parameters were observed when omadacycline was administered i.v. after or before dialysis. The mean area under the concentration-time curve from time zero extrapolated to infinity in plasma was 10.30 μg · h/ml when omadacycline was administered to ESRD subjects after dialysis, 10.20 μg · h/ml when omadacycline was administered to ESRD subjects before dialysis, and 9.76 μg · h/ml when omadacycline was administered to healthy subjects. The mean maximum observed concentration of omadacycline in plasma in ESRD subjects was 1.88 μg/ml when it was administered after dialysis and 2.33 μg/ml when it was administered before dialysis, and in healthy subjects it was 1.92 μg/ml. The 100-mg i.v. dose of omadacycline was generally safe and well tolerated in both ESRD and healthy subjects. This study demonstrates that no dose adjustment is necessary for omadacycline in patients with impaired renal function or on days when patients are receiving hemodialysis.

ABSTRACT Two open-label studies assessed the pharmacokinetics of single orally administered doses of 40 mg of stavudine in subjects with renal impairment. In one study (study I), 15 subjects with selected degrees of renal impairment, but not requiring hemodialysis, were stratified into three groups of five subjects each according to creatinine clearance (CLCR) normalized by body surface area (ml/min/1.73 m2): mild (CLCR, 60 to 80), moderate (30 to 50), and severe (≤20) renal impairment. Five healthy subjects (CLCR ≥ 90) were also enrolled. The stavudine area under the curve from 0 h to infinity (AUC0–∞) increased nonlinearly with declining renal function: 1,864, 2,215, 3,609, and 5,928 ng · h/ml for normal renal function and for mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment, respectively (P = 0.0001 between renal impairment groups). The following stavudine dosage recommendations for renal impairment were proposed for subjects weighing ≥60 kg: CLCR of >50 ml/min/1.73 m2, 40 mg every 12 h; CLCR of 21 to 50 ml/min/1.73 m2, 20 mg every 12 h; and CLCR of 10 to 20 ml/min/1.73 m2, 20 mg every 24 h. For subjects weighing <60 kg, the proposed doses were 30, 15, and 15 mg, respectively, with the same dosing intervals specified above. In a second study (study II), 12 subjects with end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis three times a week were enrolled in a randomized, open-label crossover study (dialysis 2 h after dosing and lasting 4 h or dosing without dialysis). There were no statistically significant differences for AUC0–∞, AUC2–6, time to maximum concentration of drug in serum, half-life, or apparent oral clearance when the two treatment dosage regimens were compared. As a result of study II, the recommended dosing rate for subjects requiring hemodialysis was the same as that proposed for those with severe renal impairment not requiring hemodialysis; however, dosing was recommended to follow hemodialysis and to occur at the same time each day.

Colistin is widely used in the treatment of multidrug resistant bacterial infections. Nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity are risks associated with colistin use. We report the case of a 50 year old lady with end stage renal disease, treated with colistin for catheter related blood stream infection and developed muscle weakness and parasthesia. Concomitant use of meropenem may have precipitated neurotoxicity of colistin. Conventional hemodialysis was effective in reversing her signs and symptoms. Clinicians should be aware of the risk of neurotoxicity while using colistin, especially after a loading dose in patients with renal impairment. According to our knowledge, this is the first report of conventional hemodialysis reversing the neurotoxic effects of colistin.

2520 Background: Lenalidomide is a novel oral immunomodulatory drug approved for treating myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and multiple myeloma (MM). As unchanged lenalidomide is eliminated predominantly by urinary excretion, the present study investigated the effect of renal impairment (RI) on pharmacokinetics (PK) of lenalidomide. Results were used to refine initial dosing recommendations based on a subject’s estimated creatinine clearance. Methods: The study was conducted at 3 clinical centers. Thirty male and female subjects aged 39–76 years were stratified into 5 groups based on their creatinine clearance (CLCr) values: normal renal function (NRF) (CLCr > 80 mL/min; N = 7), mild RI (50 = CLCr = 80 mL/min; N = 5), moderate RI (30 = CLCr < 50 mL/min; N = 6), severe RI (CLCr < 30 mL/min, but not on dialysis; N = 6), and end stage renal disease (ESRD, requiring dialysis; N = 6). Subjects with NRF, mild, moderate or severe RI received a single 25-mg oral dose of lenalidomide. Subjects with ESRD received 2 single 25 mg doses which were separated by 7–10 days: one dose on a non-dialysis day and the other dose 3 hours before a 4-hour haemodialysis. Assessments included PK and safety parameters. Results: All subjects completed the study. Total and renal clearance of lenalidomide were strongly correlated with CLCr (R > 0.9, p < 0.01). As a result, AUC8 increased with decreasing CLCr. The mean difference in AUC8 between NRF and mild RI was < 20%. Compared with the pooled data from NRF and mild RI groups, mean AUC8 increased approximately 140% in moderate RI, 240% in severe RI, and 360% in ESRD (off dialysis). There was no correlation between Cmax or Tmax and CLCr. Approximately 10% of the dose was recovered in the dialysate of subjects with ESRD. Protein binding of lenalidomide was not markedly affected by RI (∼35 - 44%). The drug was well tolerated. On the basis of these data, recommendations for initial starting doses were made ( Table below). Conclusions: Lenalidomide dosage adjustment should be considered for patients with CLCr < 50 mL/min.
