Abstract Background FKB327 has been developed as a biosimilar of the adalimumab reference product (RP). We compared the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and immunogenicity of FKB327 with those of the adalimumab RP after a single dose by subcutaneous (SC) injection in Japanese male participants. Methods Two randomized, single-blind, single-dose studies were conducted in healthy Japanese male participants to compare PK characteristics between FKB327 and the RP. Study 1 included 130 participants who were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive a subcutaneous injection of 40 mg of either FKB327 or the RP into the abdomen. In Study 2, another 130 subjects were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either drug as in Study 1, but the drug administration site was changed to the thigh. The primary PK endpoints of both studies were area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to the last measurable concentration (AUC0-t) and maximum serum concentration; area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to 360 h was also evaluated as one of the primary endpoints in Study 1. Biosimilarity in terms of pharmacokinetics was determined if the 90% confidence interval of the mean difference in geometric mean ratio of all primary PK parameters was within the prespecified equivalence criteria (0.80–1.25). Immunogenicity and safety were also evaluated as secondary endpoints. Results The serum concentration-time profiles were comparable between the FKB327 and the RP treatment groups in both studies. Primary PK parameters were within the prespecified bioequivalence range in Study 2, although AUC0-t was slightly outside the upper side of the range in Study 1. No differences in safety profile were observed in these studies. The incidence of anti-drug antibodies (ADAs) and impact of ADAs on PK profile were similar among the treatment groups in both studies. Conclusion Biosimilarity between FKB327 and the RP after a single 40-mg SC injection was confirmed in healthy Japanese male participants by modifying the study design.

Objective: To assess the bioequivalence of generic formulation of rivastigmine (test) and Exelon (reference). Methods: This randomized, open-label, 2-period, single-dose, 2-treatment, 2-sequence, crossover study was conducted in 40 healthy men under fed condition. Participants were randomized to receive a single dose of Exelon or rivastigmine capsule. Results: A total of 31 participants completed the study. Area under the concentration–time curve from time zero to time t (AUC0- t) and area under the concentration–time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-∞) for Exelon (mean [standard deviation], h·ng/mL) were 126.40 (56.95) and 129.46 (59.94), respectively, while they were 122.73 (43.46) and 125.08 (45.39) for rivastigmine. Geometric mean ratios of rivastigmine/Exelon were 99.17% for AUC0- t, 98.81% for AUC0-∞, and 105% for maximum observed plasma concentration ( Cmax). The 90% confidence intervals (CIs) were 94.14% to 104.46%, 93.77% to 104.12%, and 93.08% to 118.44%, respectively. Both formulations were well tolerated. Conclusion: The generic and reference formulations were bioequivalent, as the 90% CIs for Cmax, AUC0- t, and AUC0-∞ were within the range of 80% to 125%.

Abstract Purpose MB02 is a biosimilar to bevacizumab that has demonstrated similar physicochemical and functional properties in in vitro studies to the reference bevacizumab (Avastin®). This study aims to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) similarity of MB02 to the reference bevacizumab in Japanese population. Methods This double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, single-dose PK study, was performed in healthy Japanese male volunteers. Subjects were equally randomized (1:1) to receive a single (3 mg/kg) IV dose of MB02 or reference bevacizumab. PK assessments were done up to 70 days post-dose. Non-compartmental parameters were calculated. PK similarity was determined using predefined equivalence range (0.80–1.25) for the area under the serum concentration–time curve from time 0 extrapolated to infinity (AUC0–∞). Immunogenicity samples were taken pre-dose and up to day 70. Safety was assessed throughout the study. Results In total, 48 subjects (24 in each treatment group) were dosed. Consequently to the observed similar PK profile, the 90% confidence interval for the geometric means ratio for the primary PK endpoint, AUC0–∞, was within the predefined equivalence range (0.981–1.11). Forty-seven treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were reported in 20 subjects (41.7%) with comparable incidence among MB02 and reference bevacizumab groups (22 and 25, respectively), none of them was severe or serious. Anti-drug antibodies incidence was low and similar between treatment groups. Conclusions Pharmacokinetic similarity of MB02 to reference bevacizumab was evidenced in Japanese healthy subjects, with comparable safety and immunogenicity profile between treatments. This study supports the biosimilarity of MB02 to reference bevacizumab in Japanese population. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT04238650.

ABSTRACT The pharmacokinetic properties of an everninomicin antibiotic (SCH27899; Ziracin) were studied with healthy Japanese male volunteers by single (1, 3, 6, and 9 mg/kg of body weight) and multiple 60-min intravenous infusions (3, 6, and 9 mg/kg once daily for 10 consecutive days following a 2-day interval after the initial dose). At single doses the peak serum concentration and the area under the serum concentration-time curve linearly increased with the dose. While total body clearance (CL; 31.2 to 45.6 ml/kg/h) and percent cumulative urinary recovery as unchanged drug (4.9 to 7.1%) were rather constant irrespective of doses, the terminal half-life of γ phase (t 1/2γ; 14.2 to 19.6 h) were slightly prolonged at the higher two doses compared with the lower two doses. With repeated doses of SCH27899, a statistically significant decrease and increase were found in CL and t 1/2γ of about 36 and 21%, respectively, although these changes may be clinically irrelevant. The most commonly reported adverse events were local reactions such as erythema, pain, and palpable venous cord of mild to moderate degree around the injection site, which could be managed by changing the injection sites.

Randomized Crossover Study

Background: Ginkgo biloba is one of the most popular herbal supplements in the world. The supplement has been shown to induce the enzymatic activity of CYP2C19, the main cytochrome P450 isozyme involved in voriconazole metabolism. Because this enzyme exhibits genetic polymorphism, the inductive effect was expected to be modulated by the CYP2C19 metabolizer status. Objective: To examine the possible effects of Ginkgo biloba as an inducer of CYP2C19 on single-dose pharmacokinetics of voriconazole in Chinese volunteers genotyped as either CVP2C19 extensive or poor metabolizers. Methods: Fourteen healthy, nonsmoking volunteers–7 CYP2C19 extensive metabolizers (2C19*1/2C19*1) and 7 poor metabolizers (2C19*2/2C19*2)–were selected to participate in this study. Pharmacokinetics of oral voriconazole 200 mg after administration of Ginkgo biloba 120 mg twice daily for 12 days were determined for up to 24 hours by liquid chromatography–electrospray tandem mass spectrometry in a 2-phase randomized crossover study with 4-week washout between phases. Results: For extensive metabolizers, the median value for voriconazole area under the plasma concentration–time curve from zero to infinity (AUC0-00) was 5.17 μg•h/mL after administration of voriconazole alone and 4.28 μg•/mL after voriconazole with Ginkgo biloba (p > 0.05). The other pharmacokinetic parameters of voriconazole such as AUC0-24, time to reach maximum concentration, half-life, and apparent clearance also did not change significantly for extensive metabolizers in the presence of Ginkgo biloba. Pharmacokinetic parameters followed a similar pattern for poor metabolizers. Conclusions: The results suggest that 12 days of treatment with Ginkgo biloba did not significantly alter the single-dose pharmacokinetics of voriconazole in either CYP2C19 extensive or poor metabolizers. Therefore, the pharmacokinetic interactions between voriconazole and Ginkgo biloba may have limited clinical significance.

Pharmacological Basis

ABSTRACT CD101 is a novel echinocandin with concentration-dependent fungicidal activity in vitro and a long half-life (∼133 h in humans, ∼70 to 80 h in mice). Given these characteristics, it is likely that the shape of the CD101 exposure (i.e., the time course of CD101 concentrations) influences efficacy. To test this hypothesis, doses which produce the same total area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) were administered to groups of neutropenic ICR mice infected with Candida albicans R303 using three different schedules. A total CD101 dose of 2 mg/kg was administered as a single intravenous (i.v.) dose or in equal divided doses of either 1 mg/kg twice weekly or 0.29 mg/kg/day over 7 days. The studies were performed using a murine disseminated candidiasis model. Animals were euthanized at 168 h following the start of treatment. Fungi grew well in the no-treatment control group and showed variable changes in fungal density in the treatment groups. When the CD101 AUC from 0 to 168 h (AUC0–168) was administered as a single dose, a >2 log10 CFU reduction from the baseline at 168 h was observed. When twice-weekly and daily regimens with similar AUC values were administered, net fungal stasis and a >1 log10 CFU increase from the baseline were observed, respectively. These data support the hypothesis that the shape of the CD101 AUC influences efficacy. Thus, CD101 administered once per week demonstrated a greater degree of fungal killing than the same dose divided into twice-weekly or daily regimens.

Objective: The aims of this study were to investigate the comparative pharmacodynamics effect of methylprednisolone (MP) innovator, MP branded generic, and MP generic products to the serum concentration of annexin A1 (AnxA1).Methods: It was conducted by two-way crossover design in male rabbits. AnxA1 was measured at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, and 9 h after the administration of the drugs. The peak concentration (Cmax), the time at which the peak concentration was achieved (Tmax), and the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) were also determined.Results: The highest concentration and widest AUC of AnxA1 were obtained in MP innovator drug. MP innovator and branded generic reaches the peak time (Tmax) at the third 3rd h, while the MP generic reaches the peak time at the 5th h. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the serum concentration of AnxA1 between MP tablets after analyzed with a one-way analysis of variance.Conclusion: It could be concluded that the innovator drug of MP tablet gave the same effect on the serum concentration of AnxA1 than its generic counterparts, but an onset of action MP innovator and branded generic is faster than the generic product.

Levamisole has been shown to stimulate the immune response in immunocompromised humans and animals. However, its use as an adjuvant in immunocompromised weaned pigs prone to colibacillosis has only been experimentally tested but not yet officially approved. Therefore, the aim of these studies was to study the pharmacokinetics (PK) of an immunomodulating dose of levamisole in weaned pigs. For that purpose, 20 weaned crossbred pigs were divided into two treatment groups. In this parallel-design study, a single dose of levamisole (2.5 mg/kg body weight) was administered by the intramuscular (i.m.) or oral (p.o.) route. Statistically significant differences between the i.m. and p.o. routes in terminal beta rate constant (β), maximum plasma concentration (Cmax), area under the curve (AUC) for plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-inf), area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the last quantifiable time point (AUC0-t) were determined. Further research is needed to establish a relationship between the PK and the immunomodulating effect of levamisole in pigs.

ABSTRACTThis study aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of a single dose of ceftazidime-avibactam in pediatric patients. A phase I, multicenter, open-label PK study was conducted in pediatric patients hospitalized with an infection and receiving systemic antibiotic therapy. Patients were enrolled into four age cohorts (cohort 1, ≥12 to <18 years; cohort 2, ≥6 to <12 years; cohort 3, ≥2 to <6 years; cohort 4, ≥3 months to <2 years). Patients received a single 2-h intravenous infusion of ceftazidime-avibactam (cohort 1, 2,000 to 500 mg; cohort 2, 2,000 to 500 mg [≥40 kg] or 50 to 12.5 mg/kg [<40 kg]; cohorts 3 and 4, 50 to 12.5 mg/kg). Blood samples were collected to describe individual PK characteristics for ceftazidime and avibactam. Population PK modeling was used to describe characteristics of ceftazidime and avibactam PK across all age groups. Safety and tolerability were assessed. Thirty-two patients received study drug. Mean plasma concentration-time curves, geometric mean maximum concentration (Cmax), and area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0–∞) were similar across all cohorts for both drugs. Six patients (18.8%) reported an adverse event, all mild or moderate in intensity. No deaths or serious adverse events occurred. The single-dose PK of ceftazidime and avibactam were comparable between each of the 4 age cohorts investigated and were broadly similar to those previously observed in adults. No new safety concerns were identified. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under registration no. NCT01893346.)

ABSTRACT Two phase I studies were conducted to assess the plasma pharmacokinetics of telbivudine and potential drug-drug interactions between telbivudine (200 or 600 mg/day) and lamivudine (100 mg/day) or adefovir dipivoxil (10 mg/day) in healthy subjects. Study drugs were administered orally. The pharmacokinetics of telbivudine were characterized by rapid absorption with biphasic disposition. The maximum concentrations in plasma (C max) were reached at median times ranging from 2.5 to 3.0 h after dosing. Mean single-dose C max and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-∞) were 1.1 and 2.9 μg/ml and 7.4 and 21.8 μg · h/ml for the 200- and 600-mg telbivudine doses, respectively. Steady state was reached after daily dosing for 5 to 7 days. The mean steady-state C max and area under the plasma concentration-time curve over the dosing interval (AUCτ) were 1.2 and 3.4 μg/ml and 8.9 and 27.5 μg · h/ml for the 200- and 600-mg telbivudine repeat doses, respectively. The steady-state AUCτ of telbivudine was 23 to 57% higher than the single-dose values. Concomitant lamivudine or adefovir dipivoxil did not appear to significantly alter the steady-state plasma pharmacokinetics of telbivudine; the geometric mean ratios and associated 90% confidence interval (CI) for the AUCτ of telbivudine alone versus in combination were 106.3% (92.0 to 122.8%) and 98.6% (86.4 to 112.5%) when coadministered with lamivudine and adefovir dipivoxil, respectively. Similarly, the steady-state plasma pharmacokinetics of lamivudine or adefovir were not markedly affected by the coadministration of telbivudine; the geometric mean ratios and associated 90% CI, alone versus in combination with telbivudine, were 99.0% (87.1 to 112.4%) and 92.2% (84.0 to 101.1%), respectively, for the lamivudine and adefovir AUCτ values. Moreover, the combination regimens studied were well tolerated in all subjects. The results from these studies provide pharmacologic support for combination therapy or therapy switching involving telbivudine, lamivudine, and adefovir dipivoxil for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus infection.
