Drug Metab Dispos 2024; 52:1170-1180. [PMID: 38050097 DOI: 10.1124/dmd.123.001441] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Revised: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Drug-drug interaction (DDI) assessment of therapeutic peptides is an evolving area. The industry generally follows DDI guidelines for small molecules, but the translation of data generated with commonly used in vitro systems to in vivo is sparse. In the current study, we investigated the ability of advanced human hepatocyte in vitro systems, namely HepatoPac, spheroids, and Liver-on-a-chip, to assess potential changes in regulation of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP3A4, SLCO1B1, and ABCC2 in the presence of selected therapeutic peptides, proteins, and small molecules. The peptide NN1177, a glucagon and GLP-1 receptor co-agonist, did not suppress mRNA expression or activity of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, and CYP3A4 in HepatoPac, spheroids, or Liver-on-a-chip; these findings were in contrast to the data obtained in sandwich cultured hepatocytes. No effect of NN1177 on SLCO1B1 and ABCC2 mRNA was observed in any of the complex systems. The induction magnitude differed across the systems (e.g., rifampicin induction of CYP3A4 mRNA ranged from 2.8-fold in spheroids to 81.2-fold in Liver-on-a-chip). Small molecules, obeticholic acid and abemaciclib, showed varying responses in HepatoPac, spheroids, and Liver-on-a-chip, indicating a need for EC50 determinations to fully assess translatability data. HepatoPac, the most extensively investigated in this study (3 donors), showed high potential to investigate DDIs associated with CYP regulation by therapeutic peptides. Spheroids and Liver-on-a-chip were only assessed in one hepatocyte donor and further evaluations are required to confirm their potential. This study establishes an excellent foundation toward the establishment of more clinically-relevant in vitro tools for evaluation of potential DDIs with therapeutic peptides. SIGNIFICANT STATEMENT: At present, there are no guidelines for drug-drug interaction (DDI) assessment of therapeutic peptides. Existing in vitro methods recommended for assessing small molecule DDIs do not appear to translate well for peptide drugs, complicating drug development for these moieties. Here, we establish evidence that complex cellular systems have potential to be used as more clinically-relevant tools for the in vitro DDI evaluation of therapeutic peptides.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Voriconazole administered concomitantly with flucloxacillin may result in subtherapeutic plasma concentrations as shown in a patient with Staphylococcus aureus sepsis and a probable pulmonary aspergillosis. After switching our patient to posaconazole, therapeutic concentrations were reached. The aim of this study was to first test our hypothesis that flucloxacillin competes with voriconazole not posaconazole for binding to albumin ex vivo, leading to lower total concentrations in plasma. METHODS A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was then applied to predict the mechanism of action of the drug-drug interaction (DDI). The model included non-linear hepatic metabolism and the effect of a severe infectious disease on cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes activity. RESULTS The unbound voriconazole concentration remained unchanged in plasma after adding flucloxacillin, thereby rejecting our hypothesis of albumin-binding site competition. The PBPK model was able to adequately predict the plasma concentration of both voriconazole and posaconazole over time in healthy volunteers. Upregulation of CYP3A4, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19 through the pregnane X receptor (PXR) gene by flucloxacillin resulted in decreased voriconazole plasma concentrations, reflecting the DDI observations in our patient. Posaconazole metabolism was not affected, or was only limitedly affected, by the changes through the PXR gene, which agrees with the observed plasma concentrations within the target range in our patient. CONCLUSIONS Ex vivo experiments reported that the unbound voriconazole plasma concentration remained unchanged after adding flucloxacillin. The PBPK model describes the potential mechanism driving the drug-drug and drug-disease interaction of voriconazole and flucloxacillin, highlighting the large substantial influence of flucloxacillin on the PXR gene and the influence of infection on voriconazole plasma concentrations, and suggests a more limited effect on other triazoles.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated pulmonary aspergillosis superinfection with cytokine storm is associated with increased mortality. This study aimed to establish a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PK) model to investigate the disease-drug-drug interactions between voriconazole and nirmatrelvir/ritonavir in patients with COVID-19 with elevated interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels carrying various CYP2C19 phenotypes. The model was constructed and validated using PK data on voriconazole, ritonavir, and IL-6, and was subsequently verified against clinical data from 78 patients with COVID-19. As a result, the model predicted voriconazole, ritonavir, and IL-6 PK parameters and drug-drug interaction-related fold changes in healthy subjects and patients with COVID-19 with acceptable prediction error, demonstrating its predictive capability. Simulations indicated ritonavir could increase voriconazole exposure to CYP2C19 intermediate and poor metabolizers rather than decrease it, in contrast to what is indicated in the drug package insert. However, the predicted ritonavir exposures were comparable across subjects. In patients with COVID-19, both ritonavir and IL-6 increased voriconazole trough concentrations, which may lead to CYP2C19 phenotype-dependent overexposure. In conclusion, COVID-19-induced IL-6 elevation and ritonavir increased voriconazole exposure, and the magnitude of interactions was influenced by CYP2C19 phenotype. Thus, caution is warranted when prescribing voriconazole concomitantly with Paxlovid in patients with COVID-19.

Abstract
Sufentanil is frequently used as an anesthetic agent in cardiac surgery owing to its cardiovascular safety and favorable pharmacokinetics. However, the pharmacokinetics profiles of sufentanil in patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery remain less understood, which is crucial for achieving the desired level of anesthesia and mitigating surgical complications. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a population pharmacokinetic model of sufentanil in patients undergoing CPB surgery and elucidate the clinical factors affecting its pharmacokinetic profile. Adult patients who underwent cardiac surgery with CPB and were administered sufentanil for anesthesia were enrolled. Arterial blood samples were collected to quantify plasma concentrations of sufentanil and clinical laboratory parameters, including inflammatory cytokines. A population pharmacokinetic model was established using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling. Simulations were performed using the pharmacokinetic parameters of the final model. Overall, 20 patients were included in the final analysis. Sufentanil pharmacokinetics were modeled using a two-compartment model, accounting for CPB effects. Sufentanil clearance increased 2.80-fold during CPB and warming phases, while the central compartment volume increased 2.74-fold during CPB. CPB was a significant covariate affecting drug clearance and distribution volume. No other significant covariates were identified despite increased levels of the inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α during CPB. The simulation indicated a 30 μg loading dose and 40 μg/h maintenance infusion for target-controlled infusion. Additionally, a bolus dose of 60 μg was added at CPB initiation to adjust for exposure changes during this phase. Considering the target sufentanil concentrations, a uniform dosing regimen was acceptable for effective analgesia.

Impact of Inflammatory Burden on Voriconazole Exposure in Oncohematological Pediatric Patients Receiving Antifungal Prophylaxis after Allogeneic HCT. Microorganisms 2024; 12:1388.

Abstract
(1) Background: The impact of inflammation on voriconazole exposure in oncohematological pediatric patients represents a debated issue. We aimed to investigate the impact of serum C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels on voriconazole exposure in oncohematological pediatric patients requiring allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT). (2) Methods: Pediatric patients undergoing allogeneic HCT and receiving therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM)-guided voriconazole as primary antifungal prophylaxis between January 2021 and December 2023 were included. The ratio between concentration and dose (C/D) of voriconazole was used as a surrogate marker of total clearance. A receiving operating characteristic curve analysis was performed by using CRP, PCT, or IL-6 values as the test variable and voriconazole C/D ratio > 0.188 or >0.375 (corresponding to a trough concentration value [Cmin] of 3 mg/L normalized to the maintenance dose of 16 mg/kg/day in patients of age < 12 years and of 8 mg/kg/day in those ≥12 years, respectively) as the state variable. Area under the curve (AUC) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. (3) Results: Overall, 39 patients were included. The median (IQR) voriconazole Cmin was 1.7 (0.7-3.0) mg/L. A CRP value > 8.49 mg/dL (AUC = 0.72; 95%CI 0.68-0.76; p < 0.0001), a PCT value > 2.6 ng/mL (AUC = 0.71; 95%CI 0.63-0.77; p < 0.0001), and an IL-6 value > 27.9 pg/mL (AUC = 0.80; 95%CI 0.71-0.88; p < 0.0001) were significantly associated with voriconazole overexposure. Consistent results were found in patients aged <12 and ≥12 years. (4) Conclusions: A single specific threshold of inflammatory biomarkers may be linked to a significantly higher risk of voriconazole exposure in oncohematological pediatric patients after HCT, irrespective of age. Adopting a TDM-guided strategy could be useful for minimizing the risk of voriconazole overexposure.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) have introduced a significant advancement in cancer management. These compounds are administered orally, and their absorption holds a pivotal role in determining their variable efficacy. They exhibit extensive distribution within the body, binding strongly to both plasma and tissue proteins. Often reliant on efflux and influx transporters, TKI undergo primary metabolism by intestinal and hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes, with nonkidney clearance being predominant. Owing to their limited therapeutic window, many TKI display considerable intraindividual and interindividual variability. This review offers a comprehensive analysis of the clinical pharmacokinetics of TKI, detailing their interactions with drug transporters and metabolic enzymes, while discussing potential clinical implications. The prevalence of kidney conditions, such as AKI and CKD, among patients with cancer is explored in their effect on TKI pharmacokinetics. Finally, the potential nephrotoxicity associated with TKI is also examined.

Abstract
T-cell engagers (TCE) are cancer immunotherapies that have recently demonstrated meaningful benefit for patients with hematological malignancies and solid tumors. The anticipated widespread use of T cell engagers poses implementation challenges and highlights the need for guidance to anticipate, mitigate, and manage adverse events. By mobilizing T-cells directly at the contact of tumor cells, TCE mount an obligatory and immediate anti-tumor immune response that could result in diverse reactions and adverse events. Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) is the most common reaction and is largely confined to the first drug administrations during step-up dosage. Cytokine release syndrome should be distinguished from infusion related reaction by clinical symptoms, timing to occurrence, pathophysiological aspects, and clinical management. Other common reactions and adverse events with TCE are immune effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (ICANS), infections, tumor flare reaction and cytopenias. The toxicity profiles of TCE and CAR-T cells have commonalities and distinctions that we sum-up in this review. As compared with CAR-T cells, TCE are responsible for less frequently severe CRS or ICANS. This review recapitulates terminology, pathophysiology, severity grading system and management of reactions and adverse events related to TCE.

The combination of CYP2C19 polymorphism and inflammatory cell ratios in prognosis cardiac adverse events after acute coronary syndrome. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CARDIOLOGY. CARDIOVASCULAR RISK AND PREVENTION 2023; 19:200222. [PMID: 37920809 PMCID: PMC10618803 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcrp.2023.200222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2023] [Revised: 10/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023]
Abstract
Background CYP2C19 gene polymorphism combination with inflammatory cell ratios was significant in the prognosis of coronary heart disease. Materials and methods A cross-sectional analysis study, with 6 months follow-up on 142 patients with acute coronary syndrome. Patients were analyzed for CYP2C19 gene polymorphisms by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and complete blood count to determine inflammatory cell ratios and recorded cardiovascular events (CEs) after following up to 6 months. Results For 90-day CEs, CYP2C19 gene polymorphism (Hazard Ratio (HR): 1.965, 95 % Confidence Interval (CI): 1.012-3.814), the combination of a neutrophil and lymphocyte ratio (NLR) ≥ 2.982 (HR: 13.001, 95 % CI: 1.37-97.304) or a platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) ≥ 162.42 (HR: 2.878, 95 % CI: 1.212-6.835) was independent predictors of CEs. For 180-day CEs, CYP2C19 gene polymorphism combination with NLR ≥3.02 (HR: 13.946, 95 % CI: 1.833-106.121) or PLR ≥160.38 (HR: 5.349, 95 % CI: 1.379-20.745) or monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR) ≥ 0.3 (HR: 4.699, 95 % CI: 1.032-31.393) were independent predictors of CEs. Conclusion NLR, PLR or MLR combined with CYP2C19 gene polymorphism were stronger independent predictors of cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndromes compared to CYP2C19 gene polymorphism and inflammatory cell ratios separately. CYP2C19 polymorphism and high NLR was the strongest predictor of both CEs at 90 days and 180 days.

J Pharmacokinet Pharmacodyn 2023; 50:475-493. [PMID: 37925369 DOI: 10.1007/s10928-023-09896-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023]
Abstract
There are many challenges with rare diseases drug development and rare oncology indications are not different. To understand the regulatory landscape as it relates to application of clinical pharmacology principles in rare oncology product development, we reviewed publicly available information of 39 approvals by US FDA between January 2019 and March 2023. The objective was to understand the expected clinical pharmacology studies and knowledge base in such approvals. Model informed drug development (MIDD) applications were also reviewed, as such approaches are expected to play a critical role in filling clinical pharmacology gaps in rare oncology, where number of clinical trials and size of these trials will perhaps continue to be small. The findings highlighted how clinical pharmacology contributed to the evidence of effectiveness, dose optimization and elucidation of intrinsic and extrinsic factors affecting drug's behavior. Clinical pharmacology studies were often integrated with modeling in many of the NDAs/BLAs. Of the post marketing requirements (PMR) received, 18% were for dose optimization, 49% for DDI, 8% for QTc, 49% for specific population, and 5% for food effect. Two post marketing commitments (PMC) were issued for immunogenicity of the 11 biologics submissions. 15% (6 of 39) of the submissions used maximum tolerated dose (MTD) to advance their molecule into Phase 2 studies. Of them 3 approvals received PMR for dose optimization. 3 + 3 was the most prevalent Phase 1 design with use in 74% of the New Drug Applications (NDA)/Biologic License Applications (BLA) reviewed. Rest used innovative approaches such as BLRM, BOIN or mTPi, with BLRM being the most common. Seamless clinical pharmacology and MIDD approaches are paramount for rare oncology drug development.

[PMID: 37743720 DOI: 10.1080/17512433.2023.2257136] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Unlike conventional antibodies, bispecific antibodies (bsAbs) are engineered antibody- or antibody fragment-based molecules that can simultaneously recognize two different epitopes or antigens. Over the past decade, there has been an explosion of bsAbs being developed across therapeutic areas. Development of bsAbs presents unique challenges and mechanism-based pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) modeling has served as a powerful tool to optimize their development and realize their clinical utility. AREAS COVERED In this review, the guiding principles and case examples of how fit-for-purpose, mechanism-based PK/PD models have been applied to answer questions commonly encountered in bsAb development are presented. Such models characterize the key pharmacological elements of bsAbs, and they can be utilized for model-informed drug development. We also include the discussion of challenges, knowledge gaps and future direction for such models. EXPERT OPINION Mechanistic PK/PD modeling is a powerful tool to support the development of bsAbs. These models can be extrapolated to predict treatment outcomes based on mechanisms of action (MoA) and clinical observations to form positive learn-and-confirm cycles during drug development, due to their abilities to differentiate system- and drug-specific parameters. Meanwhile, the models should keep being adapted according to novel drug design and MoA, providing continuous opportunities for model-informed drug development.

The expert clinical pharmacological advice program for tailoring on real-time antimicrobial therapies with emerging TDM candidates in special populations: how the ugly duckling turned into a swan. Expert Rev Clin Pharmacol 2023; 16:1035-1051. [PMID: 37874608 DOI: 10.1080/17512433.2023.2274984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/20/2023] [Indexed: 10/25/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The growing spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens makes the need of tailoring antimicrobial therapies by means of a 'patient-centered' approach fundamental. In this scenario, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of emerging antimicrobial candidates may be a valuable approach, but expert interpretation of TDM results should be granted for making them more clinically useful. The MD Clinical Pharmacologist may take over this task since this specialist may couple PK/PD expertise on drugs with a medical background and may provide expert interpretation of TDM results of antimicrobials for tailoring therapy on real-time in each single patient based on specific both drug/pathogen issues and patient issues. AREAS COVERED This article aims to highlight the main key-points and organizational aspects for implementing a successful TDM-based expert clinical pharmacological advice (ECPA) program for tailoring antimicrobial therapies on real-time in different hospitalized patient special populations. EXPERT OPINION TDM-based ECPA programs lead by the MD Clinical Pharmacologist may represent a way forward for maximizing clinical efficacy and for minimizing the risk of resistance developments and/or toxicity of antimicrobials. Stakeholders should be aware of the fact that this innovative approach may be cost-effective.

Impact of Inflammation on Voriconazole Exposure in Critically ill Patients Affected by Probable COVID-19-Associated Pulmonary Aspergillosis. Antibiotics (Basel) 2023; 12:antibiotics12040764. [PMID: 37107125 PMCID: PMC10134964 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics12040764] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2023] [Revised: 04/12/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: To explore the impact of the degree of inflammation on voriconazole exposure in critically ill patients affected by COVID-associated pulmonary aspergillosis (CAPA); (2) Methods: Critically ill patients receiving TDM-guided voriconazole for the management of proven or probable CAPA between January 2021 and December 2022 were included. The concentration/dose ratio (C/D) was used as a surrogate marker of voriconazole total clearance. A receiving operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed by using C-reactive protein (CRP) or procalcitonin (PCT) values as the test variable and voriconazole C/D ratio > 0.375 (equivalent to a trough concentration [Cmin] value of 3 mg/L normalized to the maintenance dose of 8 mg/kg/day) as the state variable. Area under the curve (AUC) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated; (3) Results: Overall, 50 patients were included. The median average voriconazole Cmin was 2.47 (1.75-3.33) mg/L. The median (IQR) voriconazole concentration/dose ratio (C/D) was 0.29 (0.14-0.46). A CRP value > 11.46 mg/dL was associated with the achievement of voriconazole Cmin > 3 mg/L, with an AUC of 0.667 (95% CI 0.593-0.735; p < 0.001). A PCT value > 0.3 ng/mL was associated with the attainment of voriconazole Cmin > 3 mg/L (AUC 0.651; 95% CI 0.572-0.725; p = 0.0015). (4) Conclusions: Our findings suggest that in critically ill patients with CAPA, CRP and PCT values above the identified thresholds may cause the downregulation of voriconazole metabolism and favor voriconazole overexposure, leading to potentially toxic concentrations.
