Clinical value of therapeutic drug monitoring for levetiracetam in pediatric patients with epilepsy. Brain Dev 2023; 45:285-292. [PMID: 36759254 DOI: 10.1016/j.braindev.2023.01.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Revised: 01/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/28/2023] [Indexed: 02/09/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To identify pediatric patients who require therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of levetiracetam (LEV). METHODS We retrospectively investigated 2413 routine therapeutic drug monitoring data on serum LEV concentration from 1398 pediatric patients (age, 0-15 years). Samples were grouped by age (infants, < 1 year; preschool children, 1-5 years; primary school children, 6-11 years; and adolescents, 12-15 years), and the LEV concentration-to-dose (CD) ratio was calculated. RESULTS The mean CD ratio was highest in adolescents (analysis of variance, p < 0.001); 22.5 % and 15.7 % higher in adolescents than in preschool children and school children, respectively (Scheffé test, p < 0.001); and higher in infants than in preschool children. Preschool children had the lowest ratio and tended to show an increase in the ratio from age 2 to 5 years. Use of enzyme-inducing antiseizure medication reduced the CD ratio by 6.1 % in infants, 12.2 % in preschool children, 5.9 % in primary school children, and 9.4 % in adolescents. The mean CD ratio was 2.7 %, 26.9 %, and 39.3 % higher in preschool children, primary school children, and adolescents with defined chronic kidney disease (CKD) than in the respective age group of patients without CKD. The therapeutic concentration range for a long-term LEV therapy was 11 to 32 μg/mL. CONCLUSIONS LEV pharmacokinetics are significantly different between infant and preschool children, so TDM of LEV is clinically useful in these patients. In pediatric patients at higher risk for CKD, glomerular filtration rate and LEV levels should be carefully monitored.

Abstract
Introduction: Management of individuals with Dravet Syndrome has evolved significantly over the past 10 years. Progress has been made in understanding the pathophysiology, the long-term outcome and possible consequences of inappropriate therapies, new drugs have been approved by the regulatory authorities and patients and families expressed their needs beyond seizures' control.Areas covered: The authors aimed at providing an overview of the main antiseizure medications used in Dravet syndrome with a particular focus on safety considerations. As the highly active phase of seizures takes place before the age of 5 years, the characteristics of antiseizure medications in infancy and childhood have also been considered due to their impact on antiseizure medication safety.Expert opinion: Recent treatments, evaluated via randomized clinical trials, are promising in terms of efficacy and safety in individuals with DS. However, the balance between expected benefits and risks taken must be accurately assessed on an individual basis. There is a lack of data to understand the needs of patients and families, a major point particularly in this population, where the evaluation of efficacy and safety beyond seizures is difficult due to cognitive delay and behavioral disorders and where this evaluation is coming almost exclusively from caregivers.

Abstract
Preparations from the leaves of the kratom plant (Mitragyna speciosa) are consumed for their opioid-like effects. Several deaths have been associated with kratom used concomitantly with some drugs. Pharmacokinetic interactions are potential underlying mechanisms of these fatalities. Accumulating in vitro evidence has demonstrated select kratom alkaloids, including the abundant indole alkaloid mitragynine, as reversible inhibitors of several cytochromes P450 (CYPs). The objective of this work was to refine the mechanistic understanding of potential kratom-drug interactions by considering both reversible and time-dependent inhibition (TDI) of CYPs in the liver and intestine. Mitragynine was tested against CYP2C9 (diclofenac 4'-hydroxylation), CYP2D6 (dextromethorphan O-demethylation), and CYP3A (midazolam 1'-hydroxylation) activities in human liver microsomes (HLMs) and CYP3A activity in human intestinal microsomes (HIMs). Comparing the absence to presence of NADPH during preincubation of mitragynine with HLMs or HIMs, an ∼7-fold leftward shift in IC50 (∼20 to 3 μM) toward CYP3A resulted, prompting determination of TDI parameters (HLMs: K I , 4.1 ± 0.9 μM; k inact , 0.068 ± 0.01 min-1; HIMs: K I , 4.2 ± 2.5 μM; k inact , 0.079 ± 0.02 min-1). Mitragynine caused no leftward shift in IC50 toward CYP2C9 (∼40 μM) and CYP2D6 (∼1 μM) but was a strong competitive inhibitor of CYP2D6 (K i , 1.17 ± 0.07 μM). Using a recommended mechanistic static model, mitragynine (2-g kratom dose) was predicted to increase dextromethorphan and midazolam area under the plasma concentration-time curve by 1.06- and 5.69-fold, respectively. The predicted midazolam area under the plasma concentration-time curve ratio exceeded the recommended cutoff (1.25), which would have been missed if TDI was not considered. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Kratom, a botanical natural product increasingly consumed for its opioid-like effects, may precipitate potentially serious pharmacokinetic interactions with drugs. The abundant kratom indole alkaloid mitragynine was shown to be a time-dependent inhibitor of hepatic and intestinal cytochrome P450 3A activity. A mechanistic static model predicted mitragynine to increase systemic exposure to the probe drug substrate midazolam by 5.7-fold, necessitating further evaluation via dynamic models and clinical assessment to advance the understanding of consumer safety associated with kratom use.

Abstract
Stiripentol (Diacomit®) is an orally-active, structurally unique anti-epileptic drug (AED) with multiple potential mechanisms of action, including enhancement of central γ-aminobutyric acid transmission. In the EU, stiripentol is indicated for use in conjunction with clobazam and valproate as adjunctive therapy of refractory generalized tonic-clonic seizures in patients with Dravet syndrome (DS; previously known as severe myoclonic epilepsy of infancy), whose seizures are not adequately controlled with clobazam and valproate. This approval (and similar DS indications in the USA, Canada and Japan), reflect the results of the STICLO studies, two small, randomized controlled trials in which stiripentol as adjunctive therapy was associated with a markedly superior response rate after 2 months compared with placebo in patients aged between 3 and ≈ 21 years with DS that was inadequately controlled with clobazam and valproate. These short-term results have subsequently been supported and extended by findings from longer-term, open-label, observational studies, including a retrospective longitudinal cohort study, which showed that the efficacy of combining stiripentol with clobazam and valproate when started at paediatric age was maintained in mid-adulthood with up to 24 years of exposure, and up to 40 years of age. Drowsiness, appetite loss, weight loss, ataxia and tremor are the most common adverse events associated with the addition of stiripentol to clobazam and valproate. Based on the available evidence, stiripentol, as an adjunct to clobazam and valproate, is a demonstrably beneficial and generally well-tolerated second-line treatment for patients with DS.

Abstract
Genetics of alcohol addiction is currently a contradictive and complex field, where data in the most studies reflect methods’ limitations rather than meaningful and complementary results. In our review, we focus on the genetics of alcohol addiction, leaving genetics of acute alcohol intoxication out of the scope. A review of the literature on pharmacogenetic biomarkers development for the pharmacotherapy personalization reveals that today the evidence base concerning these biomarkers is still insufficient. In particular, now the researches with the design of randomized controlled trials and meta-analysis investigating the effect of the SNPs as biomarkers on the therapy efficacy are available for naltrexone only. For other medications, there are only a few studies in small samples. It decreases the possibilities to implement the pharmacogenetic algorithms for the pharmacotherapy personalization in patients with alcohol use disorders (AUD). In view of the importance of the precision approaches development not in addiction medicine only, but in other fields of medicine also to increase the efficacy and safety of the therapy, studies on pharmacogenetic biomarkers development for the medications used in patients with AUD (eg, naltrexone, disulfiram, nalmefene, acamprosate, etc.) remain relevant to this day.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Treatment of pediatric epilepsy requires a careful evaluation of the safety and tolerability profile of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) to avoid or minimize as much as possible adverse events (AEs) on various organs, hematological parameters, and growth, pubertal, motor, cognitive and behavioral development. AREAS COVERED Treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) reported in the literature 2000-2018 regarding second- and third-generation AEDs used in the pediatric age, with exclusion of the neonatal period that exhibits specific peculiarities, have been described on the basis of their frequency, severity/tolerability, and particular association with a given AED. EXPERT OPINION Somnolence/sedation and behavioral changes, like irritability and nervousness, are among the most commonly observed TEAEs associated with almost all AEDs. Lamotrigine, Gabapentin, Oxcarbazepine, and Levetiracetam appear to be the best-tolerated AEDs with a ≤2% withdrawal rate, while Tiagabine and Everolimus are discontinued in up to >20% of the patients because of intolerable TEAEs. For some AEDs, literature data are scanty to draw a high-level evidence on their safety and tolerability profile. The reasons are: insufficient population size, short duration of treatments, or lack of controlled trials. A future goal is that of identifying clearer, easier, and more homogeneous methodological strategies to facilitate AED testing in pediatric populations.

Interactions of Mexiletine with Novel Antiepileptic Drugs in the Maximal Electroshock Test in Mice: An Isobolographic Analysis. Neurochem Res 2018; 43:1887-1896.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to evaluate precisely the type of interactions between mexiletine (an antiarrhythmic drug) and four new generation antiepileptic drugs: lamotrigine, oxcarbazepine, topiramate and pregabalin in the maximal electroshock test in mice (MES). The isobolographic analysis was used to assess the nature of interactions between the tested drugs. Total brain concentrations of antiepileptics were also measured to detect possible pharmacokinetic interactions. The results obtained indicated that the mixture of mexiletine and pregabalin at the fixed ratios of 1:1 and 3:1 led to supra-additive interaction in terms of seizure suppression, while the proportion of 1:3 occurred additive. Synergism was also demonstrated for the combination of mexiletine and topiramate in all three proportions. Combinations of mexiletine with lamotrigine and mexiletine with oxcarbazepine were found to be additive. Adverse-effect profiles of mexiletine, antiepileptics and drug combinations were evaluated in the chimney test (motor coordination) and step-through passive-avoidance task (long-term memory). Mexiletine and drug combinations did not impair long-term memory. Moreover, all combinations of mexiletine with lamotrigine, oxcarbazepine and topiramate had no significant effect on motor coordination. However, the results from the chimney test indicated that pregabalin, administered alone at its ED50 dose from the MES-test, significantly impaired motor performance. Similar adverse effects were observed when mexiletine was co-administered with pregabalin at the fixed-dose ratio combinations of 1:1 and 1:3. However, reduction of pregabalin dose at the fixed ratio of 3:1 seems to prevent significant motor impairment. The results may indicate that mexiletine can be considered as an adjunctive drug in antiepileptic treatment, particularly in patients with concomitant cardiac arrhythmia.

Abstract
Anti-epileptic drugs are among the most effective drugs for migraine prophylaxis, and will likely continue to have a role even as new therapies emerge. Topiramate and valproate are effective for the preventive treatment of migraine, and other medications such as gabapentin or lamotrigine may have a role in the treatment of those with allodynia or frequent aura, respectively. Oxcarbazepine, carbamazepine, phenytoin, gabapentin, and others may alleviate pain in trigeminal neuralgia. While many anti-epileptic drugs can be effective in those with migraine or other headaches, most of these agents can potentially cause serious side effects. In particular, valproate, topiramate, carbamazepine, and phenytoin may lead to adverse outcomes for infants of exposed mothers. Valproate should not be given to women of childbearing potential for migraine prevention.
