ABSTRACTThe aims of this study were to describe emtricitabine concentration-time courses in a large population of HIV-1-infected adults, to evaluate the influence of renal function on emtricitabine disposition, and to assess current dosing adjustment recommendations. Emtricitabine blood plasma concentrations were determined from samples collected from 161 adult patients during therapeutic drug monitoring and measured by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry. The data were analyzed by a population approach. Emtricitabine pharmacokinetics was best described by a two-compartment model in which the absorption and distribution rate constants were assumed to be equal. Typical population parameter estimates (interindividual variability) were apparent elimination and intercompartmental clearances of 15.1 liters/h (17.4%) and 5.75 liters/h, respectively, and apparent central and peripheral volumes of distribution of 42.3 liters and 55.4 liters, respectively. The apparent elimination clearance was significantly related to creatinine clearance (CLCR), reflecting renal function. For 200 mg once a day (QD), the median area under the concentration-time curve over 24 h (AUC0-24) was 12.5 mg · h/liter for patients with normal renal function (CLCR, >80 ml/min), 14.7 mg · h/liter for patients with mild renal impairment (CLCR, 79 to 50 ml/min), and 17.9 mg · h/liter for patients with moderate renal impairment (CLCR, 49 to 30 ml/min). Simulations of the recommended dosing schemes for the oral solid form of emtricitabine (i.e., 200 mg per 48 h according to renal function) led to lower emtricitabine exposures for patients with moderate renal impairment (median AUC0-48, 17.2 mg · h/liter) than for patients with normal renal function (median AUC0-48, 25.6 mg · h/liter). Administering 18 ml of emtricitabine oral solution (10 mg/ml) QD to patients with moderate renal impairment should yield emtricitabine exposures similar to those in patients with normal renal function.

The purpose of this study was to determine the safety and pharmacokinetics of lamivudine (3TC), a nucleoside analog that has shown potent in vitro and recent in vivo activity against human immunodeficiency virus. Sixteen human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients, six with normal renal function (creatinine clearance [CLCR], > or = 60 ml/min), four with moderate renal impairment (CLCR, 10 to 40 ml/min), and six with severe renal impairment (CLCR, < 10 ml/min), were enrolled in the study. After an overnight fast, patients were administered 300 mg of 3TC orally. Blood was obtained before 3TC administration and 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 24, 32, 40, and 48 h afterward. Timed urine collections were performed for patients able to produce urine. Serum and urine were assayed for 3TC by reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with UV detection. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by using standard noncompartmental techniques. The peak concentration of 3TC increased with decreasing renal function; geometric means were 2,524, 3,538, and 5,684 ng/ml for patients with normal renal function, moderate renal impairment, and severe renal impairment, respectively. The terminal half-life also increased with decreasing renal function; geometric means were 11.5, 14.1, and 20.7 h for patients with normal renal function, moderate renal impairment, and severe renal impairment, respectively. Both oral and renal clearances were linearly correlated with CLCR. A 300-mg dose of 3TC was well tolerated by all three patient groups. The pharmacokinetics of 3TC is profoundly affected by impaired renal function. Dosage adjustment, by either dose reduction or lengthening of the dosing interval, is warranted.

e13037 Background: Ribociclib is an orally administered CDK4/6 inhibitor used in combination with endocrine therapy (ET) to treat women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2–negative advanced breast cancer (ABC). An integrative assessment was conducted to evaluate the effect of renal function on the pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy and safety of ribociclib. Methods: To assess the effect of mild and moderate renal impairment, a subgroup analysis was performed to evaluate PK parameters of ribociclib following oral administration of 600 mg QD 3 weeks on/1 week off in two Phase 1/2 and one Phase 3 clinical trials. Steady-state PK exposures in ABC patients at the 600 mg dose was estimated by a population PK model developed based on a pooled dataset from five Phase 1 to 3 trials and were compared by renal function. Efficacy and safety were also analyzed by renal function in a Phase 2 and three Phase 3 trials in ABC patients. The effect of severe renal impairment on ribociclib PK was assessed in a Phase I study in non-cancer subjects following a single oral 400 mg dose. Results: PK analyses in cancer patients showed that both single-dose and steady-state exposure of ribociclib at the 600 mg dose in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment were comparable to patients with normal renal function. Estimated steady-state PK exposure in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment is also comparable to patients with normal renal function. The primary efficacy results of progression free survival (PFS) and the safety profiles were comparable across renal-function cohorts in ABC patients. In non-cancer subjects administered a single oral dose of 400 mg, ribociclib AUCinf and Cmax increased 2.67- and 2.30-fold in subjects with severe renal impairment, respectively, compared to subjects with normal renal function. Conclusions: PK, efficacy and safety of ribociclib are consistent across patients with normal renal function, mild or moderate renal impairment. Hence, no dose adjustment is required in mild or moderate renal impaired patients. Severe renal impaired patients are recommended to have a reduced dose based on PK data in non-cancer subjects.

Abstract Introduction: Pralatrexate is a folate analogue indicated for the treatment of relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) that is preferentially taken up in cancer cells through the reduced folate carrier. While 34% of pralatrexate is excreted unchanged in the urine following a single, 30 mg/m2 dose administered as an IV push, a population PK analysis showed that drug clearance decreased with decreasing creatinine clearance. In addition, methotrexate, also a folate analogue, does need to be dose-reduced for patients with moderate or severe renal impairment. Pralatrexate, however, has not been formally tested in patients with renal impairment, and previous studies excluded patients with severe renal impairment. This study was, therefore, conducted to determine the need for pralatrexate dosing adjustments in patients with renal impairment. Methods: This was an open label, nonrandomized, Phase 1 study to determine the PK profile of pralatrexate in patients with relapsed/refractory advanced solid tumors or advanced lymphoma/myeloma with renal impairment. Primary objective of the study was to establish dosing recommendation of pralatrexate in renally compromised patients and to determine the pharmacokinetic profile in these patients. Four cohorts (n=6 per cohort) were planned to be enrolled in this study for a total of 24 patients. Patients with normal renal function (eGFR ≥90 mL/min/1.73 m2, Cohort A), mild (eGFR= 60 to <90 mL/min/1.73 m2, Cohort B) and moderate renal function (eGFR = 30 to < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2, Cohort C) were dosed with 30 mg/m2 pralatrexate once weekly for 6-weeks in a 7-week cycle. The pralatrexate dose was empirically reduced to 20 mg/m2 in patients with severe renal impairment (eGFR = 15 to < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2, Cohort D). Plasma and urine samples were collected at pre-specified time points to determine the PK profile. Patients who continued treatment with pralatrexate were then followed for safety and tolerability. Results: A total of 29 patients (14 male and 13 female) were enrolled in the study with 6 patients in each cohort. There were slightly more male patients (n=14, 52%) than female patients (n=13, 48%) enrolled; fewer males (33%) were in the mild renal impairment group and more males (83%) were in the moderate renal impairment group. The median age was 62.0 years. The majority of patients were White (n=22, 81%); the remaining patients were Black (n=5, 19%). Because of a qualifying toxicity in Cohort C, the starting dose was reduced to 15 mg/m2 in Cohort D. The major effect of chronic renal impairment was to decrease renal clearance of the pralatrexate diastereomers, PDX-10a and PDX-10b, but systemic exposure to these diastereomers was not dramatically affected by renal impairment. Mean total exposures of PDX-10a and PDX-10b were comparable across cohorts, including Cohort D. The empiric dose reduction to 15 mg/m2 in Cohort D was able to match the average exposures for Cohort A (with normal dose of 30 mg/m2). Although Cohorts B and C had elevated mean exposures and higher inter-patient variability than Cohorts A and D, it appears to be a result of non-renal factors. In summary, total exposures of PDX-10a and PDX-10b after a single IV injection of racemic pralatrexate are not dramatically affected by renal impairment. There was no apparent difference in either the incidence or types of TEAEs between the four treatment cohorts, and, therefore, the safety of pralatrexate was not affected by differences in renal function. The most common treatment related AEs were stomatitis (n=23, 83%), nausea (n=10, 37%), anemia (n=7, 26%) and fatigue (n=6, 22%). Conclusion: The pralatrexate exposure in patients with mild or moderate renal impairment is similar to the patients with normal renal function at a dose of 30 mg/m2. For patients with severe renal impairment, a pralatrexate dose of 15 mg/m2 is recommended.

ABSTRACTRibavirin (RBV) is an integral part of standard-of-care hepatitis C virus (HCV) treatments and many future regimens under investigation. The pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of RBV in chronically HCV-infected patients with renal impairment are not well defined and were the focus of an open-label PK study in HCV-infected patients receiving RBV plus pegylated interferon. Serial RBV plasma samples were collected over 12 h on day 1 of weeks 1 and 12 from patients with moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance [CLCR], 30 to 50 ml/min; RBV, 600 mg daily), severe renal impairment (CLCR, <30 ml/min; RBV, 400 mg daily), end-stage renal disease (ESRD) (RBV, 200 mg daily), or normal renal function (CLCR, >80 ml/min; RBV, 800 to 1,200 mg daily). Of the 44 patients, 9 had moderately impaired renal function, 10 had severely impaired renal function, 13 had ESRD, and 12 had normal renal function. The RBV dose was reduced because of adverse events (AEs) in 71% and 53% of severe and moderate renal impairment groups, respectively. Despite this modification, patients with moderate and severe impairment had 12-hour (area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 12 h [AUC0–12]) values 36% (38,452 ng · h/ml) and 25% (35,101 ng · h/ml) higher, respectively, than those with normal renal function (28,192 ng · h/ml). Patients with ESRD tolerated a 200-mg daily dose, and AUC0–12was 20% lower (22,629 ng · h/ml) than in patients with normal renal function. PK modeling and simulation (M&S) indicated that doses of 200 mg or 400 mg alternating daily for patients with moderate renal impairment and 200 mg daily for patients with severe renal impairment were the most appropriate dose regimens in these patients.

Abstract Background and Aims In polycystic kidney disease (PKD) it is frequently found a reduction in urinary citrate that is related with degree of renal impairment but it is unknown if this alteration is specific or if it is also present in other nephropathies. Recently it has been suggested that urinary citrate could be a marker of covert metabolic acidosis and reflects acid retention in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Our aim was to compare urinary citrate in PKD with other renal diseases and to show its relation with serum bicarbonate and excretion of uric acid and calcium. Method We determined citrate, calcium and uric acid in 24-hour urine in patients with PKD and with other nephropathies with varied degree of renal impairment followed in a outpatient clinic of nephrology. Results We included 291 patients, 119 with glomerular diseases, 116 with PKD, 21 with other nephropathies, and 35 patients with normal renal function. Urinary citrate was higher in women (Females 309±251 mg/gCr vs. males 181±145 mg/gCr, p&lt;0.001) and in patients with normal renal function (normal 380±210 mg/gCr; PKD 203±166 mg/gCr; glomerular 279±282 mg/gCr; p&lt;0,001). PKD patients showed similar values of urinary citrate to patients with glomerular diseases and with other nephropathies. We observed a progressive reduction in urinary citrate parallel to degree of renal impairment, in a comparable way among patients with PKD and glomerular diseases. We did not observe a relationship between urinary citrate and serum bicarbonate levels. Calcium and uric acid elimination in ADPKD patients was similar to other nephropathies and lower to patients with normal renal function. However, serum uric acid was significantly higher in glomerular patients than other nephropathies after adjust with glomerular filtration rate and sex. Conclusion Hypocitraturia is not specific of PKD but it is also present in all nephropathies. Urinary citrate are related to degree of renal impairment and it is not related with serum bicarbonate. We think that it could be interesting to study urinary citrate as a marker of renal function and its role as prognostic factor of renal deterioration.

Abstract Background Antimicrobial dosing in moderate/severe burns patients is complicated due to the potential unpredictable hyperdynamic pathophysiologic states including 1) hypoproteinemia, 2) acute kidney injury and 3) onset of septicemia. Therefore, distribution assumptions about the population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) profiles of either endogenous or xenobiotic pharmacophores in this patient population can lead to biased parameter estimates. In order to prevent potential bias an agnostic nonparametric adaptive grid approach to describe ceftolozane/tazobactam (C/T) PopPK profiles in patients with partial- and full-thickness burns was employed. Methods A human clinical PK study in burn patients was conducted using the standard approved dose of C/T (2 grams/1 gram). A single intravenous dose was administered over 60 minutes. Whole blood was obtained pre-dose and at 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, and 24 hours following the start of infusion. LC-MS/MS bioanalytical methods were developed, validated and employed to determine C/T concentrations in human plasma. PopPK were modeled using Pmetrics package for R. One-, two- and three-compartment models were examined and compared. The influence of several parameters, including %body surface area burns, creatinine clearance (CrCL), weight, albumin and age were tested. Results The bioanalytical method for determination of C/T in human plasma met all recommended criteria of the LC-MS/MS. Five males and one female (ages 24 to 66 years), contributed 148 plasma PK samples. The female had 35% partial-thickness burns. The males had full-thickness burns ranging from 27 to 66%. The median CrCL was 104 mL/min (range 73-148 mL/min). Two-compartment model with absorption (Ka) from compartment 1 to 2 and elimination from compartment 2 (Ke), with nonlinear interactions between C/T elimination and CrCL best described the data. Figure A show that bias was minimal. Importantly, both drugs exhibited marked variability for both volume and elimination (Table), since volume was bimodally distributed (Figure B). A) Observation-versus-Prediction; B) Estimated Ke, V and Ka population parameter densities Summary of pharmacokinetic parameters Conclusion C/T exhibited high variability surpassing that observed with severe infections, suggesting that dose adjustment and/or may be therapeutic drug monitoring may be needed to balance target attainment from dose-related toxicities.
