ABSTRACTThe pharmacokinetics of orally administered solithromycin (CEM-101), a novel fluoroketolide, were evaluated in healthy subjects in three phase 1 studies. In two randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled studies, escalating single oral doses of solithromycin (50 to 1,600 mg) or seven oral daily doses (200 to 600 mg) of solithromycin were administered. A third study evaluated the effects of food on the bioavailability of single oral doses (400 mg) of solithromycin. Following single doses, the median time to peak concentration (Tmax) ranged from 1.5 h to 6 h. The mean maximum measured plasma concentration (Cmax) ranged from 0.0223 μg/ml to 19.647 μg/ml, and the area under the concentration-versus-time curve from time zero to timet(AUC0–t) ranged from 0.0402 μg · h/ml to 28.599 μg · h/ml. There was no effect of high-fat food on the oral bioavailability of solithromycin. In the multiple-dose study, after 7 days, the mean maximum measured plasma solithromycin concentration at steady-state (Cmax,ss) ranged from 0.248 to 1.50 μg/ml, and the area under the concentration-versus-time curve over the final dosing interval (AUCτ) ranged from 2.310 to 18.41 μg · h/ml. These values indicate a greater than proportional increase in exposure at 200 and 400 mg but a proportional exposure at 600 mg. MedianTmaxvalues remained constant between day 1 and day 7. Moderate accumulation ratios of solithromycin were observed after 7 days of dosing. All dose regimens of solithromycin were well tolerated, and no discontinuations due to an adverse event occurred. The human pharmacokinetic profile and tolerability of solithromycin, combined with itsin vitropotency and efficacy in animal models against a broad spectrum of pathogens, support further development of solithromycin.

ABSTRACT Nafithromycin (WCK 4873), a novel lactone-ketolide, was administered to healthy adult subjects in 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 1 studies. In the first-in-human study, single ascending oral doses of nafithromycin (100 to 1,200 mg) were administered to subjects under fasted or fed conditions, with effects of food on bioavailability of nafithromycin studied at the dose levels of 400 and 800 mg. In the second study, multiple ascending oral doses of 600, 800, or 1,000 mg of nafithromycin were administered once daily for 7 days under fed conditions. Nafithromycin was generally well tolerated at all doses. No serious or severe adverse events were observed. The mean maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) ranged from 0.099 to 1.742 mg/liter, and the area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to time t (AUC0–t) ranged from 0.54 to 22.53 h·mg/liter. Nafithromycin plasma AUC0–t increased approximately 1.2-fold under fed compared to fasted conditions. In the multiple-dose study, the day 7 nafithromycin Cmax ranged from 1.340 to 2.987 mg/liter and the AUC over the final dosing interval (AUC0–24) ranged from 13.48 to 43.46 h·mg/liter. The steady state was achieved after 3 days for the 600-mg and 800-mg-dose cohorts and after 4 days for the 1,000-mg cohort. Under both single- and multiple-dosing regimens, plasma exposure to nafithromycin appeared to increase more than dose proportionally. Nafithromycin showed moderate accumulation on day 7 of dosing. The human pharmacokinetic profile, safety, and tolerability data support further development of nafithromycin. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under registration no. NCT03926962 and NCT03979859.)

ABSTRACT The hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3/4A serine protease has been explored as a target for the inhibition of viral replication in preclinical models and in HCV-infected patients. TMC435350 is a highly specific and potent inhibitor of NS3/4A protease selected from a series of novel macrocyclic inhibitors. In biochemical assays using NS3/4A proteases of genotypes 1a and 1b, inhibition constants of 0.5 and 0.4 nM, respectively, were determined. TMC435350 inhibited HCV replication in a cellular assay (subgenomic 1b replicon) with a half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) of 8 nM and a selectivity index of 5,875. The compound was synergistic with alpha interferon and an NS5B inhibitor in the replicon model and additive with ribavirin. In rats, TMC435350 was extensively distributed to the liver and intestinal tract (tissue/plasma area under the concentration-time curve ratios of >35), and the absolute bioavailability was 44% after a single oral administration. Compound concentrations detected in both plasma and liver at 8 h postdosing were above the EC99 value measured in the replicon. In conclusion, given the selective and potent in vitro anti-HCV activity, the potential for combination with other anti-HCV agents, and the favorable pharmacokinetic profile, TMC435350 has been selected for clinical development.

ABSTRACT EDP-420 (also known as EP-013420, or S-013420) is a first-in-class bridged bicyclolide currently in clinical development for the treatment of respiratory tract infections (RTI) and has previously shown favorable pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety profiles after the administration of single oral doses of a suspension to healthy volunteers. Here we report its PK profile after the administration of multiple oral doses of a suspension to healthy adults. Bioequivalence between suspension and capsule formulations, as well as the effect of food, is also reported. The most important PK features of EDP-420 observed in these clinical studies are its long half-life of 17 to 18 h and its high systemic exposure, which support once-daily dosing and treatment durations potentially shorter than those of most other macrolide antibiotics. EDP-420 is readily absorbed following oral administration in both suspension and capsule formulations. In the multiple-oral-dose study, steady state was achieved on day 1 by using a loading dose of 400 mg/day, followed by 2 days of 200 mg/day. A high-fat meal had no effect on the bioavailability of EDP-420 administered in a capsule formulation. EDP-420 was well tolerated, with no serious or severe adverse events reported, and no subject was discontinued from the study due to an adverse event. Based on its human PK and safety profiles, together with its in vitro/in vivo activities against common respiratory pathogens, EDP-420 warrants further development, including trials for clinical efficacy in the treatment of RTI.

Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacterales are identified as urgent threats, and multidrug-resistant (MDR) Pseudomonas aeruginosa and extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL)-producing pathogens are identified as a serious threat by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). SPR206 is a novel polymyxin derivative with potent in vitro and in vivo activity against A. baumannii , P. aeruginosa , and multiple clinically important species of Enterobacterales, including multidrug- and extensively drug-resistant strains. This was a first-in-human (FIH) double-blind, placebo-controlled, single- and multiple ascending dose study of the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of SPR206 in 94 healthy subjects. Following IV administration (1 h infusion) at single doses of 10 mg to 400 mg and multiple doses of 25 mg to 150 mg q8h for 7 days and 100 mg q8h for 14 days, SPR206 was generally safe and generally well tolerated. While the incidence of adverse events increased with dose, most were of mild severity. Systemic exposure (C max and AUC) to SPR206 was approximately dose proportional, time to peak concentrations ranged from 1.1 to 1.3 hours, and half-life ranged from 2.4 to 4.1 hours. No appreciable accumulation occurred with repeated dosing of SPR206 and trough concentrations suggest that steady state was achieved by Day 2. Urinary excretion of unchanged SPR206 was dose dependent across single- (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) cohorts, and the percentage of dose excreted as SPR206 was up to >50%. Importantly, no evidence of nephrotoxicity was observed over 14 days of 100 mg q8h dosing of SPR206; a dosing regimen anticipated to exceed requirements for clinical efficacy.

ABSTRACTWe evaluated microbiological correlates for the successful treatment ofNeisseria gonorrhoeaeisolates from a phase 2 study of gepotidacin, a novel triazaacenaphthylene antibacterial, for therapy of uncomplicated urogenital gonorrhea. Culture, susceptibility testing, genotypic characterization, and frequency of resistance (FoR) were performed for selected isolates. Microbiological success was defined as culture-confirmed eradication ofN. gonorrhoeae. Against 69 baseline urogenital isolates, gepotidacin MICs ranged from ≤0.06 to 1 µg/ml (MIC90= 0.5 µg/ml). For gepotidacin, the ratio of the area under the free-drug concentration-time curve to the MIC (fAUC/MIC) was associated with therapeutic success. Success was 100% (61/61) atfAUC/MICs of ≥48 and decreased to 63% (5/8) forfAUC/MICs of ≤25. All 3 isolates from microbiological failures were ciprofloxacin resistant, had a baseline gepotidacin MIC of 1 µg/ml, and carried a preexisting ParC D86N mutation, a critical residue for gepotidacin binding. In a test-of-cure analysis, the resistance to gepotidacin emerged in 2 isolates (MICs increased ≥32-fold) with additional GyrA A92T mutations, also implicated in gepotidacin binding. Test-of-cure isolates had the same sequence type as the corresponding baseline isolates. For 5 selected baseline isolates, all carrying a ParC D86N mutation, thein vitroFoR to gepotidacin was low (10−9to 10−10); the resistant mutants had the same A92T mutation as the 2 isolates in which resistance emerged. Five participants with isolates harboring the ParC D86N mutation were treatment successes. In summary,fAUC/MICs of ≥48 predicted 100% microbiological success, including 3 isolates with the ParC D86N mutation (fAUC/MICs ≥ 97). Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic determinations may help to evaluate new therapies for gonorrhea; further study of gepotidacin is warranted.

Abstract Background TP-6076 is a novel, fully synthetic tetracycline being developed for the treatment of serious bacterial infections, including those caused by multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. TP-6076 has demonstrated potent activity in vitro against carbapenem-resistant strains of A. baumannii, with MIC90 64 times lower compared with tigecycline and 256 times lower compared with minocycline. We now report the results of a multiple ascending dose study in normal healthy volunteers. Methods This was a phase 1, single-site, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled dose-escalating, multiple dose study in healthy adults who met the inclusion/exclusion criteria and provided informed consent prior to any study procedure. Cohorts of eight subjects each (six active and two placebo) received daily doses of 6.0 to 40.0 mg TP-6076 or placebo for 7 days. Plasma and urine samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) analyses were collected starting immediately prior to dosing until 96 hours after the last dose. Safety was assessed through collection of adverse events (AEs), clinical laboratories, vital signs, ECG, and physical examination data. Results The geometric mean derived PK parameters for TP-6076 were: There were no serious or severe AEs reported. The most frequently reported AEs were gastrointestinal events, including nausea and vomiting, and localized infusion site reactions. There were no clinically significant changes in clinical laboratory values, ECG parameters, or physical examination findings. Conclusion Following multiple IV doses of TP-6076, plasma exposure increased as dose increased. Multiple IV doses of TP-6076 were generally well tolerated, with higher gastrointestinal adverse event rates in the higher dose groups. Disclosures L.

ABSTRACT KBP-7072 is a semisynthetic aminomethylcycline with broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens, including multidrug-resistant bacterial strains. The pharmacokinetics (PK) of KBP-7072 after oral and intravenous (i.v.) administrations of single and multiple doses were investigated in animal models, including during fed and fasted states, and the protein binding and excretion characteristics were also evaluated. In Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, beagle dogs, and CD-1 mice, KBP-7072 demonstrated a linear PK profile after the administration of single oral and i.v. and multiple oral doses. The oral bioavailability ranged from 12% to 32%. The mean time to maximum concentration (Tmax) ranged from 0.5 to 4 h, and the mean half-life ranged from approximately 6 to 11 h. The administration of oral doses in the fed state resulted in marked reductions in the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) compared with dosing in fasted animals. The mean bound fractions of KBP-7072 were 77.5%, 69.8%, 64.5%, 69.3%, and 69.2% in mouse, rat, dog, monkey, and human plasma, respectively. Following a single 22.5-mg/kg oral dose of KBP-7072 in SD rats, the cumulative excretion in feces was 64% and that in urine was 2.5% of the administered dose. The PK results in animal models are consistent with single- and multiple-ascending-dose studies in healthy volunteers and confirm the suitability of KBP-7072 for once-daily oral and i.v. administration in clinical studies.

We evaluated the pharmacokinetics of rectally administered zidovudine (ZDV) in 10 human immunodeficiency virus-infected adults. After rectal administration of an aqueous ZDV solution (250 mg of ZDV), mean peak ZDV levels were 1.3 +/- 0.7 micromol/liter (mean +/- standard deviation) versus 5.0 +/- 2.2 micromol/liter (P < 0.0001) after oral intake of a 250-mg ZDV capsule. The half-life at beta phase was 87.8 +/- 39.6 min for rectally administered ZDV versus 55.8 +/- 20.1 min (P = 0.035) for orally administered ZDV. The mean area under the concentration-time curve from 0 min to infinity was 232 +/- 181 micromol/liter x min after rectal administration versus 362 +/- 110 micromol/liter x min after oral intake. Although the two routes were not bioequivalent, ZDV was absorbed considerably after rectal administration, with a pharmacokinetic profile resembling that of a sustained-release device.

Abstract NE-180 is a glycoPEGylated recombinant human erythropoietin that binds to and activates the erythropoietin (EPO) receptor. It has demonstrated in vitro activities comparable to EPO and an extended serum half-life in animal studies. This may allow less frequent dosing in patients being treated with chronic anemia. METHODS: A single center, open-label study of NE-180, administered as single escalating doses given by the SC or IV route, was conducted to assess the safety, tolerability, PK and PD. Subjects (male or female NHV) were planned to be assigned to one of 4 dose groups, 10 subjects per dose with 5 SC and 5 IV subjects per group: 0.5, 1.5, 3, or 4.5 mg/kg. Each dose group was planned to be initiated in an ascending, sequential fashion unless or until stopping rules were met. RESULTS: 25 NHV (16 females) were enrolled in the first two dose cohorts and have completed 56 day follow-up. The 1.5 mg/kg IV cohort met the protocol-specified Hb rate of rise stopping rule (change in Hb greater than 1 g/dL during any 14 day period). Injections were generally well tolerated with no discontinuations for adverse events or serious adverse events. Reticulocyte increases were dose proportional. Average reticulocyte count at baseline was 1.0±0.3%. The maximal increase occurred at day 7. The mean change from baseline for the 0.5 and 1.5 mg/kg SC group was: 0.9±0.4% and 2.2±0.9%, respectively. The mean change from baseline for the 0.5 and 1.5 mg/kg IV group was: 1.7±0.8% and 2.3±0.8%, respectively. PK data will be presented. CONCLUSIONS: Single doses up to 1.5 mg/kg of NE-180 administered to NHV were generally well tolerated and demonstrated potent dose-dependent erythropoietic activity.

ABSTRACT The aim of the present study was to characterize the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic relationship of GV143253A, a novel trinem anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) agent active against gram-positive cocci, including multidrug-resistant clinical isolates. An in vitro pharmacodynamic study with methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) and MRSA has shown that the duration of exposure to GV143253A rather than its concentration is the major determinant of the extent of bacterial killing. The in vitro findings were confirmed by use of a neutropenic murine model of thigh infection caused by MSSA ATCC 25923. From the dose-response curves, the static doses extrapolated for three different dosing intervals showed that more frequent dosing of GV143253A was more effective than less frequent dosing. A pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic analysis demonstrated that only the time during which the drug concentration exceeded the MIC (t>MIC) correlated with in vivo GV143253A activity. The value of t>MIC required to achieve a bacteriostatic effect in a thigh infection of neutropenic animals was 20% (95% confidence interval [CI], 18 to 22%) of the dosing interval. This result is similar to those reported in the literature for carbapenems and for GV104326A, another novel trinem compound. In addition, in order to compare the therapeutic efficacy of GV143253A to that of vancomycin in a thigh infection caused by MRSA in immunocompetent mice, suitable dosing regimens were designed on the basis of previous pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic findings for GV143253A and on the human pharmacokinetic profile of the glycopeptide. Although the pharmacokinetic profiles of the two agents were completely different, GV143253A showed good efficacy comparable to that of vancomycin, reducing by 4 log units the bacterial counts in the thighs of treated mice relative to untreated infected animals after 48 h of therapy. The results suggest that if the time of exposure to the pathogen above the MIC is at least 30% of the dosing interval, GV143253A could have a role in the clinical treatment of infections caused by MRSA, which is difficult to eradicate with current antibiotics.
