ABSTRACT An extensive clinical development program (comprising two phase 2 and five phase 3 trials) has demonstrated the efficacy and safety of ceftazidime-avibactam in the treatment of adults with complicated intra-abdominal infection (cIAI), complicated urinary tract infection (cUTI), and hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP), including ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). During the phase 3 clinical program, updated population pharmacokinetic (PK) modeling and Monte Carlo simulations using clinical PK data supported modified ceftazidime-avibactam dosage adjustments for patients with moderate or severe renal impairment (comprising a 50% increase in total daily dose compared with the original dosage adjustments) to reduce the risk of subtherapeutic drug exposures in the event of rapidly improving renal function. The modified dosage adjustments were included in the ceftazidime-avibactam labeling information at the time of initial approval and were subsequently evaluated in the final phase 3 trial (in patients with HAP, including VAP), providing supportive data for the approved U.S. and European ceftazidime-avibactam dosage regimens across renal function categories. This review describes the analyses supporting the ceftazidime-avibactam dosage adjustments for renal impairment and discusses the wider implications and benefits of using modeling and simulation to support dosage regimen optimization based on emerging clinical evidence.

Abstract Background Trimethoprim inhibits sodium channels in the distal portion of the renal tubule, thereby impairing renal potassium excretion. Trimethoprim has been associated with a greater risk of hyperkalemia compared with other antibiotics (amoxicillin, nitrofurantoin, cefalexin, ciprofloxacin). An analysis of Phase 3 studies was conducted to determine whether iclaprim, under development for ABSSSI and also a selective bacterial dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor like trimethoprim, is associated with hyperkalemia, relative to vancomycin, an antibiotic not associated with hyperkalemia. Methods A post-hoc safety analysis was conducted on pooled results of two Phase 3, double-blind, randomized (1:1), active-controlled trials (REVIVE-1/-2) in patients with ABSSSI. These trials compared iclaprim 80 mg fixed doses with vancomycin 15 mg/kg; both administered intravenously every 12 hours for 5–14 days. Hyperkalemia was defined as serum potassium (K) ≥5.5 mmol/L, if normal at baseline, while on study drug. Hyperkalemia was compared between treatment groups and stratified subgroup comparisons were performed. Results Demographics and baseline disease characteristics were similar between the pooled iclaprim and vancomycin groups (table). Hyperkalemia occurred during treatment in 1.5% (9/592) and 2.5% (15/599) of patients treated with iclaprim and vancomycin, respectively. Of the patients with hyperkalemia, one patient in each treatment group had moderate to severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance [CrCl] 15–59 mL/minute). Among patients with moderate to severe renal impairment on any RAS, KSD or K supplements, hyperkalemia occurred in 1/16 and 0/16 patients in the iclaprim and vancomycin groups, respectively, and in 2/83 and 0/46 patients with mild to no renal impairment. No patients with hyperkalemia experienced adverse events of palpitations, chest pain, myalgia, muscular weakness or fatigue. Conclusion No differences in hyperkalemia were seen between the iclaprim and vancomycin groups in the Phase 3 REVIVE studies. In general, few cases of hyperkalemia occurred among patients with renal impairment treated with concomitant angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and angiotensin-receptor blockers treated with iclaprim.

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.

ABSTRACTPeramivir is an intravenous anti-influenza agent that inhibits viral growth by selectively inhibiting neuraminidase in human influenza A and B viruses. To characterize its pharmacokinetics, a population pharmacokinetic analysis of peramivir was performed using 3,199 plasma concentration data samples from 332 subjects in six clinical studies in Japan and the United States, including studies with renal impairment subjects, elderly subjects, and influenza patients. A three-compartment model well described the plasma concentration data for peramivir, and creatinine clearance was found to be the most important factor influencing clearance. Age and body weight were also found to be covariates for clearance and the volume of distribution, respectively. No difference in pharmacokinetics was found between genders or between Japanese and U.S. subjects. Small differences in pharmacokinetics were observed between uninfected subjects and influenza patients (clearance was 18% higher and the volume of distribution was 6% lower in influenza patients). Monte Carlo simulations indicated that single adjusted doses of 1/3- and 1/6-fold for patients with moderate and severe renal impairment, respectively, would give areas under the curve comparable to those for patients with normal renal function. The population pharmacokinetic model developed for peramivir should be useful for understanding its pharmacokinetic characteristics and for dose adjustment on the basis of renal function.

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 Background Renal comorbidities are common in patients hospitalized with community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP). LEF, a novel pleuromutilin antibiotic (IV/oral), was generally well tolerated and noninferior to moxifloxacin in two phase 3 studies of adults with CABP. We investigated the PK and safety of LEF and its main metabolite, BC-8041, in subjects with severe renal impairment and those requiring hemodialysis (HD). Methods In this open-label study, subjects were allocated to 1 of 3 groups based on renal function level. Severe subjects (estimated glomerular filtration rate <30 mL/minute/1.73 m2, not on HD, Severe) were matched (gender, age, and weight) to subjects with normal renal function (estimated creatinine clearance ≥90 mL/minute, Normal). Subjects in the Normal and Severe groups received a single 1-hour 150 mg LEF infusion. Subjects in the HD group started HD within 1 hour after LEF infusion (“On-dialysis”) and on a nondialysis day (“Off-dialysis”). Blood and urine samples were collected predose and over a 36-hour period postdose for PK analysis; LEF and BC-8041 were assayed in plasma and urine with validated methods. Safety assessments included treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), labs, vital signs, and electrocardiograms. Results 23 subjects enrolled in and completed the study (n = 7, Normal; n = 8, Severe; n = 8, HD). LEF and BC-8041 pharmacokinetic parameters (table) were comparable between the Normal and Severe groups and between the On-dialysis and Off-dialysis treatment periods for the HD group. The majority of LEF and BC-8041 were excreted nonrenally in Normal and Severe subjects and were not measurably filtered into dialysate. TEAEs were reported in 2 (28.6%) subjects in the Normal group, 4 (50%) in the Severe group, and 4 (50%) in the HD group. None of the TEAEs were serious or led to study drug discontinuation. Within 4 h post-dose, the maximum mean change from baseline in the QTcF interval was 8.9, 6.6, 15.9, and 17.6 msec in the normal, severe, on-dialysis, and off-dialysis groups, respectively. Conclusion No dosage adjustment is required for LEF when treating subjects with severe renal impairment, and LEF can be administered without regard to HD timing. LEF was generally well tolerated in all subjects regardless of renal function status. Disclosures All authors: No reported disclosures.

ABSTRACTA population pharmacokinetic model of telavancin, a lipoglycopeptide antibiotic, was developed and used to identify sources of interindividual variability. Data were obtained from healthy subjects (seven phase 1 studies), patients with complicated skin and skin structure infections (cSSSI; two phase 2 and two phase 3 studies), and patients with hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP; two phase 3 studies). A two-compartment open model with zero-order input best fit the telavancin data from healthy individuals and patients with cSSSI or HAP. Telavancin clearance was highly correlated with renal function and, to a lesser extent, with body weight. Other covariates were related to at least one parameter in cSSSI (gender, bacterial eradication, and surgery) or HAP (age of ≥75 years) but did not markedly affect exposure. These analyses support current dosing recommendations for telavancin based on patient weight and 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.
