Abstract
As one of the efficient techniques for TDM, the population pharmacokinetic (popPK) model approach for dose individualization has been developed due to the rapidly growing innovative progress in computer technology and has recently been considered as a part of model-informed precision dosing (MIPD). Initial dose individualization and measurement followed by maximum a posteriori (MAP)-Bayesian prediction using a popPK model are the most classical and widely used approach among a class of MIPD strategies. MAP-Bayesian prediction offers the possibility of dose optimization based on measurement even before reaching a pharmacokinetically steady state, such as in an emergency, especially for infectious diseases requiring urgent antimicrobial treatment. As the pharmacokinetic processes in critically ill patients are affected and highly variable due to pathophysiological disturbances, the advantages offered by the popPK model approach make it highly recommended and required for effective and appropriate antimicrobial treatment. In this review, we focus on novel insights and beneficial aspects of the popPK model approach, especially in the treatment of infectious diseases with anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus agents represented by vancomycin, and discuss the recent advancements and prospects in TDM practice.

Abstract
Although tuberculosis (TB) is preventable and curable, the lengthy treatment (generally 6 months), poor patient adherence, high inter-individual variability in pharmacokinetics (PK), emergence of drug resistance, presence of comorbidities, and adverse drug reactions complicate TB therapy and drive the need for new drugs and/or regimens. Hence, new compounds are being developed, available drugs are repurposed, and the dosing of existing drugs is optimized, resulting in the largest drug development portfolio in TB history. This review highlights a selection of clinically available drug candidates that could be part of future TB regimens, including bedaquiline, delamanid, pretomanid, linezolid, clofazimine, optimized (high dose) rifampicin, rifapentine, and para-aminosalicylic acid. The review covers drug development history, preclinical data, PK, and current clinical development.

Abstract
In recent years, many studies on population pharmacokinetics of linezolid have been conducted. This comprehensive review aimed to summarize population pharmacokinetic models of linezolid, by focusing on dosage optimization to maximize the probability of attaining a certain pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic parameter in special populations. We searched the PubMed and EMBASE databases for population pharmacokinetic analyses of linezolid using a parametric non-linear mixed-effect approach, including both observational and prospective trials. Of the 32 studies, 26 were performed in adults, four in children, and one in both adults and children. High between-subject variability was determined in the majority of the models, which was in line with the variability of linezolid concentrations previously detected in observational studies. Some studies found that patients with renal impairment, hepatic failure, advanced age, or low body weight had higher exposure and adverse reactions rates. In contrast, lower concentrations and therapeutic failure were associated with obese patients, young patients, and patients who had undergone renal replacement techniques. In critically ill patients, the inter-individual and intra-individual variability was even greater, suggesting that this population is at an even higher risk of underexposure and overexposure. Therapeutic drug monitoring may be warranted in a large proportion of patients given that the Monte Carlo simulations demonstrated that the one-size-fits-all labeled dosing of 600 mg every 12 h could lead to toxicity or therapeutic failure for high values of the minimum inhibitory concentration of the target pathogen. Further research on covariates, including renal function, hepatic function, and drug–drug interactions related to P-glycoprotein could help to explain variability and improve linezolid dosing regimens.

Abstract
Standard tuberculosis (TB) management has failed to control the growing number of drug-resistant TB cases worldwide. Therefore, innovative approaches are required to eradicate TB. Model-informed precision dosing and therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) have become promising tools for adjusting anti-TB drug doses corresponding with individual pharmacokinetic profiles. These are crucial to improving the treatment outcome of the patients, particularly for those with complex comorbidity and a high risk of treatment failure. Despite the actual benefits of TDM at the bedside, conventional TDM encounters several hurdles related to laborious, time-consuming, and costly processes. Herein, we review the current practice of TDM and discuss the main obstacles that impede it from successful clinical implementation. Moreover, we propose a semi-automated TDM approach to further enhance precision medicine for TB management.

Abstract
Pregnancy is associated with several physiological changes that can alter the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics of drugs. These may require dosing changes in pregnant women to achieve drug exposures comparable to the nonpregnant population. There is, however, limited information available on the PK and pharmacodynamics of drugs used during pregnancy. Practical difficulties in performing PK studies and potential liability issues are often the reasons for the availability of limited information. Over the past several years, there has been a rapid development in the application of various modeling strategies such as population PK and physiologically based PK modeling to provide guidance on drug dosing in this special patient population. Population PK models rely on measured PK data, whereas physiologically based PK models integrate physiological, preclinical, and clinical data to quantify changes in PK of drugs in various patient populations. These modeling strategies offer a promising approach to identify the drugs with PK changes during pregnancy and guide dose adjustment in pregnant women. This review focuses on PBPK modeling to guide drug therpay in pregnancy.

Abstract
The exposure to linezolid is characterized by a large inter-individual variability; age, renal dysfunction and body weight explain this variability only to a limited extent and a considerable portion of it remains unexplained; therefore, we decided to investigate the role of individual genetic background focusing in particular on the risk of linezolid underexposure. 191 patients in therapy with linezolid at the standard dose of 600 mg twice daily were considered. Linezolid plasma concentration was determined at the steady state and classified as "below", "within" or "above" reference range. Genetic polymorphisms for ATP Binding Cassette Subfamily B Member 1 (ABCB1), Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes CYP3A4 and CYP3A5, and Cytochrome P450 Oxidoreductase (POR) were investigated. Age significantly correlated with drug exposure, and patients CYP3A5 expressers (GA and AA) were found at high risk to be underexposed to the drug when treated at standard dose. This association was confirmed even after correction with age. No association was found with ABCB1 polymorphism. Our data suggest that CYP3A5 polymorphisms might significantly affect linezolid disposition, putting patients at higher risk to be underexposed, while P-glycoprotein polymorphism seem not to play any role.

Abstract
Linezolid is an antibiotic used to treat infections caused by drug-resistant gram-positive organisms, including vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium, multi-drug resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The adverse effects of linezolid can include thrombocytopenia and neuropathy, which are more prevalent with higher exposures and longer treatment durations. Although linezolid is traditionally administered at a standard 600 mg dose every 12 hours, the resulting exposure can vary greatly between patients and can lead to treatment failure or toxicity. The efficacy and toxicity of linezolid are determined by the exposure achieved in the patient; numerous clinical and population pharmacokinetics (popPK) studies have identified threshold measurements for both parameters. Several special populations with an increased need for linezolid dose adjustments have also been identified. Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) is a clinical strategy that assesses the response of an individual patient and helps adjust the dosing regimen to maximize efficacy while minimizing toxicity. Adaptive feedback control and model-informed precision dosing are additional strategies that use Bayesian algorithms and PK models to predict patient-specific drug exposure. TDM is a very useful tool for patient populations with sparse clinical data or known alterations in pharmacokinetics, including children, patients with renal insufficiency or those receiving renal replacement therapy, and patients taking co-medications known to interact with linezolid. As part of the clinical workflow, clinicians can use TDM with the thresholds summarized from the current literature to improve linezolid dosing for patients and maximize the probability of treatment success.

Abstract
Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) have evolved as important tools to inform rational dosing of antibiotics in individual patients with infections. In particular, critically ill patients display altered, highly variable pharmacokinetics and often suffer from infections caused by less susceptible bacteria. Consequently, TDM has been used to individualize dosing in this patient group for many years. More recently, there has been increasing research on the use of MIPD software to streamline the TDM process, which can increase the flexibility and precision of dose individualization but also requires adequate model validation and re-evaluation of existing workflows. In parallel, new minimally invasive and noninvasive technologies such as microneedle-based sensors are being developed, which-together with MIPD software-have the potential to revolutionize how patients are dosed with antibiotics. Nonetheless, carefully designed clinical trials to evaluate the benefit of TDM and MIPD approaches are still sparse, but are critically needed to justify the implementation of TDM and MIPD in clinical practice. The present review summarizes the clinical pharmacology of antibiotics, conventional TDM and MIPD approaches, and evidence of the value of TDM/MIPD for aminoglycosides, beta-lactams, glycopeptides, and linezolid, for which precision dosing approaches have been recommended.

Abstract
Antimicrobials are a common cause of drug toxicity. Understanding the relationship between systemic antimicrobial exposure and toxicity is necessary to enable providers to take a proactive approach to prevent undesired drug effects. When an exposure threshold has been defined that predicts drug toxicity, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) can be performed to assure drug exposure does not exceed the defined threshold. Although some antimicrobials have well-defined dose-dependent toxicities, many other exposure-toxicity relationships have either not been well-defined or, in some cases, not been evaluated at all. In this review, we examine the relationship between exposures and toxicities for antibiotic, antifungal, and antiviral agents. Furthermore, we classify these relationships into four categories: known association between drug exposure and toxicity such that clinical implementation of a specific exposure threshold associated with toxicity for TDM is supported (category 1), known association between drug exposure and toxicity but the specific exposure threshold associated with toxicity is undefined (category 2), association between drug exposure and toxicity has been suggested but relationship is poorly defined (category 3), and no known association between drug exposure and toxicity (category 4). Further work to define exposure-toxicity thresholds and integrate effective TDM strategies has the potential to minimize many of the observed antimicrobial toxicities.

Abstract
Background The objectives of the present prospective observational study conducted in patients receiving conventional dosage of linezolid was to define the pharmacodynamic range of linezolid exposure, to assess the inter-individual variability in linezolid concentrations, and to define if therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of linezolid may be necessary for Chinese population. Methods Patients included in this study underwent linezolid TDM trough concentration (Cmin) during treatment with a standard regimen in the period between January 2019 and October 2019. Linezolid Cmin was analyzed with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. Logistic regression was used to define the desired range of linezolid Cmin. Linear regression and univariate logistic regression analysis were carried out to investigate variables associated with inappropriate linezolid plasma exposure. Results A total of 84 patients who had 153 linezolid Cmin assessed were included in the study. Median linezolid Cmin was 3.43 mg/L (IQR 1.59–5.93). The estimated probability of thrombocytopenia was 50% in the presence of Cmin of 7.85 mg/L. Approximately 57.52% (88/153) of the samples fell within the desired range of linezolid Cmin (2–8 mg/L) while 31.37% (48/153) experienced underexposure, and overexposure occurred in 11.11% (17/153) of the patients. No significant linear relationships between either body weight or estimated creatinine clearance (CrCL) and Cmin were detected. Estimated CrCL ≥100 mL/min was significantly associated with linezolid underexposure (OR 4.121; 95% CI, 1.945–8.731; P<0.001). Estimated CrCL ≤40 mL/min was significantly associated with linezolid overexposure (OR 3.761; 95% CI, 1.324–10.681; P=0.013). Conclusions Our results suggest that the pharmacodynamic range of linezolid Cmin can be defined as 2–8 mg/L for the Chinese population. Renal function partially accounts for the inter-interindividual variability of exposure. The application of TDM might be especially valuable in optimizing linezolid exposure in the majority of patients to avoid therapeutic failure and/or dose-dependent adverse reactions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The emergence of coagulase-negative staphylococci with reduced vancomycin susceptibility in some neonatal intensive care units has resulted in an increase of linezolid use. Linezolid pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety in premature infants still need to be better established. METHODS This was a retrospective PK study. All infants who received intravenous linezolid and had linezolid plasma concentrations per standard of care were included. Linezolid concentrations were measured by high performance liquid chromatography. A population PK model was developed using nonlinear mixed effects modeling. Optimal dosing was determined based on achievement of the surrogate pharmacodynamics target for efficacy: a ratio of the area under the concentration-time curve to minimum inhibitory concentration >80. We assessed the occurrence of thrombocytopenia and lactic acidosis in relation with drug exposure. RESULTS A total of 78 plasma concentrations were collected from 26 infants, with a median postnatal age (PNA) of 24 days (8-88) and weight of 1423 g (810-3256). A 1-compartment model described linezolid data well. The final model included PNA and weight on clearance and weight on volume of distribution. Considering an MIC90 of 1 mg/L, all infants reached an area under the concentration-time curve/minimum inhibitory concentration > 80. Although thrombocytopenia and hyperlactatemia occurred frequently, they were not sustained and were not considered related to linezolid. CONCLUSION and was well tolerated in critically ill premature infants. PNA was the main determinant of clearance.
