ABSTRACT The combination of glecaprevir (formerly ABT-493), a nonstructural protein 3/4A (NS3/4A) protease inhibitor, and pibrentasvir (formerly ABT-530), an NS5A protein inhibitor, is being developed as treatment for HCV genotype 1 to 6 infection. The pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and tolerability of methadone or buprenorphine-naloxone when coadministered with the glecaprevir-pibrentasvir combination in HCV-negative subjects on stable opioid maintenance therapy were investigated in a phase 1, single-center, two-arm, multiple-dose, open-label sequential study. Subjects received methadone (arm 1) or buprenorphine-naloxone (arm 2) once daily (QD) per their existing individual prescriptions alone (days 1 to 9) and then in combination with glecaprevir at 300 mg QD and pibrentasvir at 120 mg QD (days 10 to 16) each morning. Dose-normalized exposures were similar with and without glecaprevir and pibrentasvir for (R)- and (S)-methadone (≤5% difference) and for buprenorphine and naloxone (≤24% difference); the norbuprenorphine area under the curve was 30% higher with glecaprevir and pibrentasvir, consistent with maximum and trough plasma concentrations that increased by 21% to 25%. No changes in pupil response, short opiate withdrawal scale score, or desire for drugs questionnaire were observed when glecaprevir and pibrentasvir were added to methadone or buprenorphine-naloxone therapy. No dose adjustment is required when glecaprevir and pibrentasvir are coadministered with methadone or buprenorphine-naloxone.

Norepinephrine Reuptake

Abstract Purpose Ampreloxetine is a novel, selective, long-acting norepinephrine reuptake (NET) inhibitor being investigated as a once-daily oral treatment for symptomatic neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) in patients with autonomic synucleinopathies. The purpose of this study was to characterize the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of ampreloxetine in this target population. Methods Patients with nOH were enrolled in a multicenter, phase II clinical trial of ampreloxetine (NCT02705755). They received escalating doses over 5 days in the clinical research unit, followed by 20 weeks of open-label treatment and then a 4-week withdrawal. As neurochemical biomarkers of NET inhibition, we assayed plasma concentrations of norepinephrine (NE) and its main intraneuronal metabolite 3,4-dihydroxyphenylglycol (DHPG) pre- and post-ampreloxetine. Results Thirty-four patients with nOH were enrolled. Plasma ampreloxetine concentrations increased with repeated escalating doses, with peak concentrations observed 6–9 h post-drug administration. The median ampreloxetine dose in the 20-week treatment phase was 10 mg once daily. Plasma ampreloxetine concentrations reached steady state by 2 weeks, with stable plasma levels over 24 h. No influence of age or renal function on ampreloxetine plasma concentrations was observed. On treatment, compared to baseline, plasma NE significantly increased by 71% (p < 0.005), plasma DHPG significantly declined by 22% (p < 0.05), and the NE:DHPG ratio significantly increased (p < 0.001). Conclusions Persistent elevation of plasma NE levels accompanied by reduced DHPG levels after ampreloxetine suggests reduced neuronal reuptake and metabolism of NE in postganglionic efferent sympathetic neurons. The findings are consistent with long-lasting NET inhibition, which may increase vasoconstrictor tone, supporting once-daily ampreloxetine dosing in patients with nOH.

Tenofovir Alafenamide

Abstract Background Tenofovir alafenamide fumarate (TAF) co-formulated with elvitegravir (EVG; E), cobicistat (C), and emtricitabine (F), a recommended antiretroviral regimen, was evaluated for distribution and antiviral activity in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) as well as neurocognitive (NC) performance change in participants switching from E/C/F/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) to E/C/F/TAF. Methods This was a 24-week, single-arm, open-label study in treatment-experienced adults living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Nine participants switched from E/C/F/TDF (150/150/200/300 mg once daily) to E/C/F/TAF (150/150/200/10 mg once daily) at week 12. CSF and total plasma concentrations of EVG, TDF, TAF, tenofovir (TFV), and HIV RNA levels were measured at baseline and week 24. NC performance was estimated by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment. Results EVG concentrations in CSF and the CSF:plasma ratio remained stable (P = .203) over time. Following the switch, TFV concentrations in CSF and plasma declined (P = .004), although the TFV CSF:plasma ratio increased (P = .004). At week 24, median TAF plasma concentration was 11.05 ng/mL (range, 2.84–147.1 ng/mL) 2 hours postdose but was below assay sensitivity 6 hours after dosing. TAF was below assay sensitivity in all CSF specimens. HIV RNA was ≤40 copies/mL in all CSF and plasma specimens. Three participants (33%) had NC impairment at baseline and 2 (22%) remained impaired at week 24. Conclusions Switch to E/C/F/TAF was associated with reductions in TFV concentrations in CSF but stable EVG concentrations that exceeded the 50% inhibitory concentration for wild-type HIV, suggesting that EVG achieves therapeutic concentrations in the central nervous system. No virologic failure or significant NC changes were detected following the switch. Clinical Trials Registration NCT02251236.

Objective Oral once-daily dual-release hydrocortisone (DR-HC) replacement therapy was developed to provide a cortisol exposure−time profile that closely resembles the physiological cortisol profile. This study aimed to characterize single-dose pharmacokinetics (PK) of DR-HC 5–20mg and assess intrasubject variability. Methods Thirty-one healthy Japanese or non-Hispanic Caucasian volunteers aged 20−55 years participated in this randomized, open-label, PK study. Single doses of DR-HC 5, 15 (3×5), and 20mg were administered orally after an overnight fast and suppression of endogenous cortisol secretion. After estimating the endogenous cortisol profile, PK of DR-HC over 24h were evaluated to assess dose proportionality and impact of ethnicity. Plasma cortisol concentrations were analyzed using liquid chromatography−tandem mass spectrometry. PK parameters were calculated from individual cortisol concentration−time profiles. Results DR-HC 20mg provided higher than endogenous cortisol plasma concentrations 0−4h post-dose but similar concentrations later in the profile. Cortisol concentrations and PK exposure parameters increased with increasing doses. Mean maximal serum concentration (Cmax) was 82.0 and 178.1ng/mL, while mean area under the concentration−time curve (AUC)0−∞ was 562.8 and 1180.8h×ng/mL with DR-HC 5 and 20mg respectively. Within-subject PK variability was low (<15%) for DR-HC 20mg. All exposure PK parameters were less than dose proportional (slope <1). PK differences between ethnicities were explained by body weight differences. Conclusions DR-HC replacement resembles the daily normal cortisol profile. Within-subject day-to-day PK variability was low, underpinning the safety of DR-HC for replacement therapy. DR-HC PK were less than dose proportional – an important consideration when managing intercurrent illness in patients with adrenal insufficiency.

4017 Background: FGFR genetic aberrations have been implicated in the development and progression of a number of solid tumor types, including iCCA. Pts with unresectable advanced iCCA who relapse after first-line chemotherapy have limited treatment options with poor prognosis. Recently, FGFR2 fusions, observed in up to 20% of pts, have been recognized as a potential therapeutic target. ARQ 087 is a multi-kinase inhibitor with a potent pan-FGFR activity. Methods: 119 cancer pts were enrolled in the phase 1/2, open-label study of ARQ 087. Study design and results of the phase 1were reported previously. Assessments included response by RECIST v1.1 every 8 wks, safety (physical examination, vital signs, ECOG PS, laboratory tests), plasma concentrations of phosphate and FGF19, 21 and 23 (potential biomarkers). Results: As of 1Feb17, 35 iCCA pts with FGFR2 genetic aberrations were treated with ARQ 087 300 (n = 33) or 400 mg (n = 2) daily. FGFR2 status was identified by FISH or NGS, 29/35 pts were FGFR2 fusion positive (FISH n = 15/18; NGS n = 14/17). Pts were all white, female (60%) with ECOG PS 0 (69%) and median age 58 yrs (31-82). Median number of prior systemic therapies was 1(0-6). Drug-related AEs (all grades) were reported in 89% of pts; the most common (≥10%) included nausea (37%), dry mouth (29%), asthenia (26%), fatigue, vomiting (23%, each), abnormal LFTs, dysgeusia (20%, each), alopecia, diarrhea, vision blurred (14%, each), and conjunctivitis (11%). Grade 3/4 AEs occurring in ≥2 pts were asthenia and abnormal LFTs (6%, each). AEs were mostly (71%) of mild to moderate intensity, manageable and reversible. Median time on treatment was 183 days (95%CI: 166-289). 19 pts were on treatment for > 16 wks, nine are ongoing. 30 pts had at least one post-treatment radiographic assessment: 6 (20%) had PR (32-47% tumor reduction, all FGFR2 fusion positive), 17 SD (7 had tumor reduction between 10 to 25%), and 7 had PD. One pt died prior to scheduled assessment and assessment in 4 pts is pending. Conclusions: ARQ 087 demonstrated encouraging antitumor activity and manageable safety profile. Updated data, including safety, efficacy and biomarkers will be presented. Clinical trial information: NCT01752920.

2550 Background: Paxalisib (previously GDC-0084) is a potent, oral, selective, brain-penetrant, small molecule inhibitor of class I phosphoinositide 3-kinase and mammalian target of rapamycin. The PI3K pathway is upregulated in ~85% of GBM cases and paxalisib has shown efficacy in preclinical models. A phase I study (NCT01547546) investigated paxalisib dosed once daily in 47 patients with recurrent high-grade gliomas and established a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of 45mg once daily. The current phase Il study aims to explore the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of paxalisib in newly diagnosed GBM and an unmethylated MGMT promotor following surgery and temozolomide chemoradiation per Stupp regimen. Methods: Part 1 of this study is an open-label, dose-escalation phase to assess the safety, tolerability and MTD. Dose-escalation started at 60mg and progressed in 15mg increments using a 3+3 design. Part 2 is an expansion cohort recruiting 20 patients randomized to administration in fed or fasted states at the MTD. Results: Part 1 is complete and reported here. Nine patients were recruited and an MTD of 60mg was determined. DLTs were hyperglycemia and oral mucositis. AEs were generally reversible and consistent with the PI3K inhibitor class with the most common events were rash, oral mucositis, and fatigue. PK at the MTD was broadly consistent with the data published for the phase 1 study. For eight response-evaluable patients in Part I the median progression-free survival (PFS) was 8.4 months, and 25% of patients remained progression free after 15 months of follow-up. Part 2 is ongoing. Conclusions: A higher MTD of 60mg was identified in newly diagnosed GBM with unmethylated MGMT promotor status than the 45mg MTD previously identified in recurrent high-grade glioma. An encouraging PFS signal is described in this poor-prognosis, unmethylated MGMT patient population. Clinical trial information: NCT03522298 .

e15060 Background: Oral co-administration of encequidar (a selective, minimally absorbed oral P-gp inhibitor) 12.9 mg with paclitaxel (a P-gp substrate) 205 mg/m2 for 3 consecutive days per week can achieve comparable AUC exposure to that of IV paclitaxel 80mg/m2 with a significantly lowered Cmax and has been demonstrated its improved tumor response with reduced neuropathy compared to IV paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 Q3W for the treatment of patients with metastatic breast cancer. Because of its pharmacology as an inhibitor of P-gp, encequidar may increase the bioavailability of orally administered drugs that are substrates of P-gp, such as dabigatran etexilate. Methods: To determine the effect of a therapeutic dose and regimen (3 once-daily 12.9 mg doses) of encequidar on the single dose PK of dabigatran etexilate, an open-label, fixed-sequence study was performed in 20 healthy male subjects. Participants received a single oral dose of dabigatran etexilate 75 mg on Day 1 of Treatment Period 1 (reference) and, after a washout period of at least 7 days, on Days 3, 17 and 31 of Treatment Period 2, after receiving once-daily oral doses 12.9 mg encequidar on Days 1 to 3 of Period 2. The PK sampling for determination of plasma concentrations of total and unconjugated dabigatran lasted up to 48 hours postdose of each dabigatran etexilate dosr. Results: Mean AUC and Cmax values for dabigatran were both increased ̃ 95% without changing t½ when dabigatran etexilate was administered 1 hour post the 3rd dose of 12.9 mg encequidar compared to when dabigatran etexilate was administered alone. When dabigatran etexilate was administered 2 weeks after encequidar administration, no apparent differences in dabigatran AUC or Cmax were detected compared to those of dabigatran etexilate alone. When administered 4 weeks after discontinuation of encequidar, dabigatran AUC and Cmax were both slightly lower than Reference dabigatran etexilate (̃ 25% lower for AUC and 34% lower for Cmax). Both unconjugated and total dabigatran PK data were analyzed and shown to be similar. Encequidar and dabigatran etexilate were well tolerated and had acceptable safety findings in this healthy subject population. Conclusions: Concomitant dosing of encequidar with dabigatran etexilate resulted in < 2-fold increase in exposure to dabigatran, which had abated by the time of the first re-test, 14 days after the last dose of encequidar. The observed changes do not warrant dose adjustment of dabigatran etexilate when administered with encequidar. Clinical trial information: ACTRN12618000791235.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical effects of naltrexone following ALO-02 administration.Design: Two phase three studies: an open-label, single-arm safety study, and a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized withdrawal, efficacy study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifiers: NCT01428583, NCT01571362).Setting: Seventy US research centers.Patients: Eight hundred and five patients with moderate-to-severe chronic noncancer pain (n = 395) or moderate-to-severe chronic low back pain (n = 410).Interventions: Oral ALO-02 capsules (daily dose 20-160 mg oxycodone): openlabel titration followed by double-blind fixed dose ALO-02 or placebo (12 weeks) for the efficacy study; and open-label administration (≤12 months) for the safety study.Main outcome measures: Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-sf), withdrawal-related adverse events, Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale (COWS), and naltrexone plasma concentrations.Results: ALO-02 was received for 30 days by 592 patients (73.5 percent), 90 days by 348 patients (43.2 percent), and ≥361 days by 105 patients (13.0 percent). Maximum COWS scores were below the cutoff for mild withdrawal for the majority of patients: 86.6 percent of patients in the safety study, and for the efficacy study, 96.8 percent during titration and 95.0 percent during double-blind treatment. The frequency of quantifiable naltrexone plasma concentrations was similar between studies (18-23 percent of samples), and the levels were low, generally not exceeding 200 pg/mL. There was no apparent relationship between naltrexone plasma concentrations and COWS scores (total or change from baseline), or change from baseline in BPI-sf scores in the efficacy (R 2 = 0.0184, 0.0224, and 0.0173, respectively) or safety studies (R 2 = 0.0010, 0.0000, and 0.0122, respectively).Conclusions: Naltrexone plasma concentrations were low, not correlated with COWS or BPI-sf scores, and considered clinically insignificant.

Abstract Background Previous pharmacokinetic studies demonstrated an increase in serum ertapenem concentrations with decreasing kidney function, including patients receiving renal replacement therapy. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetic parameters of ertapenem in patients receiving hemodialysis. Methods This prospective, single-center, open-label study examined the pharmacokinetics of a single intravenous (IV) dose of ertapenem 1 g in seven hospitalized noninfected patients undergoing hemodialysis. Blood samples were collected prior to ertapenem administration and at 0.5, 1, 2, 6, 12 and 48 hours (h) after administration. Ertapenem concentrations were determined by validated liquid chromatography mass spectrometry assay. Results Following an IV bolus of 1 g ertapenem, plasma concentrations declined relatively slowly with a mean ±standard deviation (SD) elimination half-life of 19.3 ±6.6 h. Plasma concentrations were similar in all subjects, with maximum mean plasma concentration observed of 343±48 µg/mL postdose. The mean ±SD values for systemic plasma clearance (CL) and volume of distribution at steady state (Vss) were 2±0.5 mL/min and 3295±1187 mL, respectively. The area under the curve for 0 h–∞ (AUCinf) was 7494 ±1424 h•µg/mL. No gender effect was observed and no serious adverse events were reported. Conclusions Ertapenem half-life was prolonged in hemodialysis patients. Considering the nonrenal clearance and the expected 70% removal with high-efficacy hemodialysis, the dose of 1 g ertapenem, three times weekly, after hemodialysis may produce pharmacodynamically sufficient exposure for potential antimicrobial efficacy. Further studies are warranted to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of this dose with prolonged duration of therapy.

ABSTRACTDolutegravir (DTG) and GSK1265744 are HIV integrase inhibitors (INIs) in clinical development. The oral formulation of rilpivirine (RPV), a nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI), has been approved for treatment-naive HIV infection. Long-acting depot injections of GSK1265744 and RPV are also being developed. This study evaluated the potential for drug interactions between RPV and these INIs. This phase 1, open-label, two-cohort, three-period, single-sequence crossover study evaluated oral coadministration of RPV with DTG or GSK1265744. Healthy subjects received DTG (50 mg every 24 h for 5 days) or GSK1265744 (30 mg every 24 h for 12 days) in period 1 followed by a washout, RPV (25 mg every 24 h for 11 or 12 days) in period 2, immediately followed by RPV (25 mg every 24 h) plus DTG (50 mg every 24 h) for 5 days or GSK1265744 (30 mg every 24 h) for 12 days in period 3. Steady-state pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were estimated using noncompartmental analysis of data collected on the last day of each period. The combinations of RPV and DTG (n= 16) and of RPV and GSK1265744 (n= 11) were well tolerated; no grade 3 or 4 adverse events (AEs) or AE-related discontinuations were observed. The 90% confidence intervals for the area under the curve from time zero until the end of the dosage interval [AUC0–τ] and maximum concentration of drug in serum (Cmax) geometric mean ratios were within 0.8 to 1.25. Following administration of DTG + RPV, DTG and RPVCτ increased by 22% and 21%, respectively. Following administration of GSK1265744 + RPV, RPVCτ decreased 8%. DTG and GSK1265744 can be administered with RPV without dosage adjustment for either agent. These results support coadministration of RPV with DTG or GSK1265744 as either oral or long-acting depot injection regimens. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under registration no. NCT01467531.)
