Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cyclosporin has been used for the treatment of pediatric refractory nephrotic syndrome (PRNS). However, the narrow therapeutic window and large pharmacokinetic variability make it difficult to individualize cyclosporin administration. Meanwhile, spironolactone has been reported to affect cyclosporin metabolism in PRNS patients. This study aims to explore the initial dosage optimization of cyclosporin in PRNS based on the impact of spironolactone co-administration. METHODS Monte Carlo simulation based on a previously established cyclosporin population pharmacokinetic model for PRNS was used to design cyclosporin dosing regimen. RESULTS In this study, the probability of drug concentration reaching the target and the convenience of times of administration were considered comprehensively. The optimal administration regimen in PRNS without spironolactone was 6, 5, 4 and 3 mg/kg cyclosporin split into two doses for the body weight of 5-8, 8-18, 18-46 and 46-70 kg, respectively. The optimal administration regimen in PRNS with spironolactone was 4, 3, 2 mg/kg cyclosporin split into two doses for body weight of 5-14, 14-65, and 65-70 kg, respectively. CONCLUSION The cyclosporin dosing regimen for PRNS based on Monte Carlo simulation was systematically developed and the initial dosage optimization of cyclosporin in PRNS was recommended for the first time.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Improved understanding of cyclosporine A (CsA) pharmacokinetics in children undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is crucial for effective prevention of acute graft-versus-host disease and medication safety. The aim of this study was to establish a population pharmacokinetic (Pop-PK) model that could be used for individualised therapy to paediatric patients undergoing allo-HSCT in China. DESIGN, SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS A retrospective analysis of 251 paediatric HSCT patients who received CsA intravenously in the early post transplantation period at Women and Children's Medical Center in Guangzhou was conducted. ANALYSIS MEASURES The model building dataset from 176 children was used to develop and analyse the CsA Pop-Pk model by using the nonlinear mixed effect model method. The basic information was collected by the electronic medical record system. Genotype was analysed by matrix-assisted time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The stability and predictability of the final model were verified internally, and a validation dataset of 75 children was used for external validation. Monte Carlo simulation is used to adjust and optimise the initial dose of CsA in paediatric allo-HSCT patients. RESULTS The typical values for clearance (CL) and volume of distribution ([Formula: see text]) were 14.47 L/hour and 2033.53 L, respectively. The body weight and haematocrit were identified as significant variables for V, while only body weight had an impact on CL. The simulation based on the final model suggests that paediatrics with HSCT required an appropriate intravenous dose of 5 mg/kg/day to reach the therapeutic trough concentration. CONCLUSIONS The CsA Pop-PK model established in this study can quantitatively describe the factors influencing pharmacokinetic parameters and precisely predict the intrinsic exposure to CsA in children. In addition, our dosage simulation results can provide evidence for the personalised medications TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: ChiCTR2000040561.

The Dosage Recommendation of Cyclosporin in Children with Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis based on Population Pharmacokinetic Model. Curr Pharm Des 2023; 29:2996-3004. [PMID: 38062660 DOI: 10.2174/0113816128286290231124055116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cyclosporin is one of the therapeutic regimens for hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH); however, the optimal dosage of cyclosporine in children with HLH is unknown. It has been found that piperacillin-tazobactam affects the cyclosporine pharmacokinetic process in pediatric HLH patients. Thus, the purpose of the present study was to recommend cyclosporin dosage for pediatric HLH with and without piperacillin- tazobactam. METHODS A previously established cyclosporine population pharmacokinetic model for pediatric HLH patients has been used in this study to recommend optimal dosage based on Monte Carlo simulation. The pediatric HLH patients have been included in eight weight groups (5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 kg) for sixteen dosages (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 mg/kg), split into one dose or two doses. RESULTS The optimal cyclosporin dosages for children having HLH without piperacillin-tazobactam have been found to be 15, 13, 12, 11, 10, and 9 mg/kg, split into two doses for weights of 5-7, 7-10, 10-20, 20-28, 28-45, and 45-70 kg, respectively. For children with HLH, optimal cyclosporin dosages with piperacillin-tazobactam have been found to be 8 and 7 mg/kg, split into two doses for weights of 5-20 and 20-70 kg, respectively. CONCLUSION It is the first time that the cyclosporin dosage regimens for HLH in children have been developed based on Monte Carlo simulation, and the initial dosage optimizations of cyclosporine in pediatric HLH patients have been recommended.

Abstract
Cyclosporine (CsA) is a component of the first-line treatment for acquired aplastic anemia (acquired AA) in pediatric patients. This study aimed to develop a population pharmacokinetic (PK) model of CsA in Chinese pediatric patients with acquired AA to inform individual dosage regimens. A total of 681 CsA whole blood concentrations and laboratory data of 157 pediatric patients with acquired AA were retrospectively collected from two hospitals in Shanghai. A nonlinear mixed-effect model approach was used to build the population PK model. Potential covariate effects of age, body weight, and biochemical measurements (renal and liver functions) on CsA PK disposition were evaluated. Model fit was assessed using the basic goodness of fit and a visual predictive check. The CsA concentration data were accurately described using a two-compartment disposition model with first-order absorption and elimination. Body weight value was implemented as a fixed allometric function on all clearance and volume of distribution parameters. Total bilirubin level was identified as a significant covariate on apparent clearance (CL/F), with a 1.07% reduction per 1 nmol/L rise in total bilirubin level. The final estimates for CL/F and central volume (Vc/F) were 29.1 L/h and 325 L, respectively, for a typical 28 kg child. Other covariates (e.g., gender, age, albumin, hemoglobin, hematocrit, serum creatinine, and concomitant medication) did not significantly affect the PK properties of CsA. This population PK model, along with a maximum a posteriori Bayesian approach, could estimate individual PK parameters in pediatric patients with acquired AA to conduct individual CsA therapy.

Abstract
The present study explored the effects of posaconazole on tacrolimus population pharmacokinetics (PPK) in children with Crohn’s disease (CD) undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Tacrolimus concentrations, physiological and biochemical factors, and concomitant medications from 51 CD children undergoing HSCT were used to establish a PPK model based on a nonlinear mixed-effect model. Steady-state concentrations of tacrolimus for children weighing less than 20 kg treated with different dose regimens were simulated by the Monte Carlo method. Weight and concomitant medications were included as covariates. At the same weight, the relative tacrolimus clearance was 1:0.43 in children without or with posaconazole. Compared to children not receiving posaconazole, the simulated tacrolimus steady-state concentrations at different doses for different body weights were all higher in children receiving posaconazole (p < 0.01). Furthermore, in children not receiving posaconazole, the dosage regimen with the best probability of achieving the target concentration was 0.6 mg/kg/day for children weighing 5–8.2 kg and 0.5 mg/kg/day for children weighing 8.2–20 kg, while for children receiving posaconazole, the best probability of reaching the target concentration of tacrolimus was a dosage regimen of 0.5 mg/kg/day for children weighing 5–20 kg. In conclusion, the PPK for tacrolimus was determined in children with CD undergoing HSCT for the first time. Co-treatment with posaconazole significantly increased tacrolimus concentrations, and we recommend a specific initial dose regimen for tacrolimus.

Abstract
The present study aimed to explore the effects of cimetidine on ciclosporin population pharmacokinetics and initial dose optimization in aplastic anemia patients. Aplastic anemia patients were used to establish a population pharmacokinetic model by the nonlinear mixed effect (NONMEM), and concentrations of ciclosporin were simulated by Monte Carlo method. With the same weight, the ciclosporin clearance rates were 0.387:1 in patients with or without cimetidine, respectively. In the measured ciclosporin concentrations, compared to aplastic anemia patients without cimetidine, ciclosporin concentrations were higher in patients with cimetidine (P < 0.01). Further research found that at the same body weight and same dose, ciclosporin concentrations in aplastic anemia patients with cimetidine were indeed higher than those in patients without cimetidine (P < 0.01). The initial recommended ciclosporin dose for patients without cimetidine were 7mg/kg splited into two doses for weight of 40-60kg, and 6mg/kg splited into two doses for weight of 60-100kg. The patients with cimetidine were recommended to take 3mg/kg ciclosporin splited into two doses for weight of 40-100kg. It was the first time to explore the effects of cimetidine on ciclosporin population pharmacokinetics and initial dose optimization in aplastic anemia patients. Patients coadministration of cimetidine, may need low ciclosporin dose.

Abstract
Bone marrow transplants (BMT) are an established therapeutic strategy for patients with severe aplastic anemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia or chronic myeloid leukemia. However, the successful application of BMT is limited by graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD). Ciclosporin has been widely used for treating GVHD in pediatric patients who underwent BMT. The present study aimed to optimize the dosage of ciclosporin for safety and effectiveness based on population pharmacokinetics. A non-linear mixed-effects model was used to analyze the clinical data of pediatric patients who underwent BMT between September 2016 and September 2019 at the Children's Hospital of Fudan University. Monte Carlo simulations were used to identify the optimal dose of ciclosporin. The final population pharmacokinetic model indicated that body weight and days post-transplant influenced the clearance of ciclosporin in pediatric patients who underwent BMT. The present study indicated that the optimal initial dose of ciclosporin for pediatric patients weighing 5-30 kg who underwent BMT was 6 mg/kg/day split into 2 doses.

Abstract
Cyclosporine (CsA) is characterized by a narrow therapeutic window and high interindividual pharmacokinetic variability, particularly in juvenile patients. The aims of this study were to build a population pharmacokinetic model of CsA in Chinese children with hematopathy who received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) and to identify covariates affecting CsA pharmacokinetics. A total of 86 Chinese children aged 8.4 ± 3.8 years (range 1.1–16.8 years) who received allo-HSCT were enrolled. Whole blood samples were collected before allo-HSCT. Genotyping was performed using an Agena MassARRAY system. A total of 1010 trough plasma concentration values of CsA and clinical data were collected. The population pharmacokinetic model of CsA was constructed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling (NONMEM) software. The stability and performance of the final model were validated using bootstrapping and normalized prediction distribution errors. We showed that a one-compartment model with first-order elimination adequately described the pharmacokinetics of CsA. The typical values for clearance (CL) and volume of distribution (V) were 42.3 L/h and 3100 L, respectively. Body weight, postoperative days, CYP3A4*1 G genotype, estimated glomerular filtration rate and coadministration of triazole antifungal drugs were identified as significant covariates for CL. Weight and postoperative days were significant covariates for the V of CsA. Our model can be adopted to optimize the CsA dosing regimen for Chinese children with hematopathy receiving allo-HSCT.

Abstract
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is induced by various triggers, including genetic factors, infections, autoimmune diseases, lymphoma or other malignancies. Cyclosporin is one of the clinical treatments for HLH. However, cyclosporin has considerable inter- and intra-individual variabilities in pharmacokinetics and also displays a narrow therapeutic window, making it difficult to define an optimal dose for HLH treatment. This study is aimed to establish cyclosporin population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model of pediatric HLH patients and formulate an initial dose regimen for personalized medicine.Pediatric HLH patients between June 2014 and March 2019 from Children's Hospital of Fudan University were analyzed using NONMEM. Dose recommended was investigated using Monte Carlo simulations.The final cyclosporin PPK model was: CL/F = 91×(WT/70)0.75×(1+ Piperacillin-Tazobactam × θP-T); V/F = 4250×(WT/70), where WT, and θP-T were weight, and the coefficient of the Piperacillin-Tazobactam, respectively. Based on the simulation results of our model, new initial dosage suggestions were recommended. In conclusion, the first cyclosporin PPK model in pediatric HLH patients was established and the model could be used to predict individualized initial dosing regimens in children with HLH.

Abstract
Different models of population pharmacokinetics (PPK) of cyclosporin have been established in various populations. However, the cyclosporin PPK model in patients with pediatric refractory nephrotic syndrome (PRNS) has yet to be constructed. The present study aimed to establish the cyclosporin PPK model in PRNS, and to identify factors that may account for any variability. Chinese patients with PRNS treated with cyclosporin between June 2014 and June 2018 at the Children's Hospital of Fudan University (Shanghai, China) were retrospectively analyzed. The impact of demographic features, laboratory parameters and concomitant medications was evaluated. A total of 18 PRNS patients from real-world studies were analyzed by non-linear mixed-effects modeling. A one-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination was selected as the appropriate model in PRNS. Body weight (WT) and spirolactone intake were included as significant covariates for the apparent oral clearance (CL/F), and the WT was revealed to significantly influence the apparent volume of distribution (V/F). The final covariate models were as follows: CL/F=80.7 × (WT/70)0.75 × (1-0.265×θspirolactone), and V/F=2,030 × (WT/70), where θspirolactone is the coefficient of spirolactone. The inter-individual variability in CL/F and V/F was 44.6 and 53.1%, respectively. In conclusion, in the present study, a cyclosporin PPK model for patients with PRNS was successfully constructed, and the presence of a clinically significant interaction between spirolactone and cyclosporin in PRNS patients was determined based on real-world studies, indicating that concomitant medication with spirolactone was able to reduce cyclosporin clearance in the patients with PRNS.
