Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review describes current knowledge of ganciclovir (GCV) and valganciclovir (ValGCV) pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic characteristics, highlighting the likely contribution from host genetic factors to interpatient variability. The evidence and challenges surrounding optimization of drug dosing through therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) are examined, with recommendations made. RECENT FINDINGS Pharmacokinetic studies of current dosing guidelines have shown high interindividual and intraindividual variability of GCV concentrations. This is sometimes associated with a slow decline in cytomegalovirus (CMV) viral load in some transplant recipients. A high incidence of GCV-associated myelosuppression has limited the use of this drug in the transplant setting. Patient groups identified to benefit from GCV TDM include pediatric patients, cystic fibrosis with lung transplantation, obese with kidney transplantation, and patients with fluctuating renal function or on hemodialysis. The emergence of refractory resistant CMV, particularly in immune compromised patients, highlights the importance of appropriate dosing of these antivirals. Host genetic factors need to be considered where recently, two host genes were shown to account for interpatient variation during ganciclovir therapy. Therapeutic Drug Monitoring has been shown to improve target antiviral-level attainment. The use of TDM may guide concentration-based dose adjustment, potentially improving virological and clinical outcomes. However, evidence supporting the use of TDM in clinical practice remains limited and further study is needed in the transplant cohort. SUMMARY Further studies examining novel biomarkers are needed to guide target concentrations in prophylaxis and treatment. The use of TDM in transplant recipients is likely to improve the clinical efficacy of current antivirals and optimize outcomes in transplant recipients.

Optimizing ganciclovir and valganciclovir dosing regimens in pediatric patients with cytomegalovirus infection: a spotlight on therapeutic drug monitoring. Expert Rev Clin Pharmacol 2023; 16:727-739. [PMID: 36794592 DOI: 10.1080/17512433.2023.2181161] [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: 12/12/2022] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 02/17/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Infants and immunocompromised children with cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection have significant morbidity and mortality. Ganciclovir (GCV) and its oral prodrug valganciclovir (VGCV) are the major antiviral options of choice for the prophylaxis and treatment of CMV infection. However, with the currently recommended dosing regimens used in pediatric patients, large intra- and inter-individual variability of pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters and exposure are observed. AREAS COVERED This review describes the PK and pharmacodynamic (PD) characteristics of GCV and VGCV in pediatrics. Moreover, the role of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and current clinical practice for GCV and VGCV dosing regimens optimization in pediatrics are discussed. EXPERT OPINION GCV/VGCV TDM has shown the potential value to improve the benefit/risk ratio in pediatrics when using the therapeutic ranges derived from adults. However, well-designed studies are required to evaluate the relationship of TDM with clinical outcomes. Furthermore, studies to explore the children-specific dose-response-effect relationships will be helpful to facilitate the TDM practice. In the clinical setting, optimal sampling methods such as limited sampling strategies for pediatrics can be used in TDM and intracellular ganciclovir triphosphate may be used as an alternative TDM marker.

Abstract
Many clinically used antiviral drugs are nucleoside or nucleotide analog drugs, which have a unique mechanism of action that requires intracellular phosphorylation. This dependence on intracellular activation presents novel challenges for the discovery and development of nucleoside/nucleotide analog drugs. Contrary to many small molecule drug development programs that rely on plasma pharmacokinetics and systemic exposures, the precise mechanisms that result in efficacious intracellular nucleoside triphosphate concentrations must be understood in the process of nucleoside/nucleotide drug development. The importance is highlighted here, using the following as case studies: the herpes treatment acyclovir, the cytomegalovirus therapy ganciclovir, and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) treatments based on tenofovir, which are also in use for HIV prophylaxis. For each drug, the specificity of metabolism that results in its activation in different cells or tissues is discussed, and the implications explored. Acyclovir's dependence on a viral enzyme for activation provides selective pressure for resistance mutations. Ganciclovir is also dependent on a viral enzyme for activation, and suicide gene therapy capitalizes on that for a novel oncology treatment. The tissue of most relevance for tenofovir activation depends on its use as treatment or as prophylaxis, and the pharmacogenomics and drug-drug interactions in those tissues must be considered. Finally, differential metabolism of different tenofovir prodrugs and its effects on toxicity risk are explored. Taken together, these examples highlight the importance of understanding tissue specific metabolism for optimal use of nucleoside/nucleotide drugs in the clinic. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: Nucleoside and nucleotide analogue drugs are cornerstones in current antiviral therapy and prevention efforts that require intracellular phosphorylation for activity. Understanding their cell and tissue specific metabolism enables their rational, precision use for maximum efficacy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytomegalovirus (CMV) can cause severe disease, including rejection in transplant recipients. Ganciclovir and its oral prodrug valganciclovir have been used as first-line therapy for CMV disease in transplant recipients. The exposure targets of ganciclovir are not exactly known, and toxicity and resistance have interfered with ganciclovir therapy. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of ganciclovir in transplant recipients. METHODS We used patient data from a previous observational study on ganciclovir therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in prophylaxis and therapy. The ganciclovir concentrations and CMV viral loads were determined during routine clinical care. The PK/PD population modelling and simulations were done with non-parametric methodology using the Pmetrics program. RESULTS Eighty-five patients were included in the PK modelling. The final PK model was a two-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination. A subset of 17 patients on CMV therapy were included in the PD modelling. A median of 4 (range 2-8) viral loads were obtained per patient. A simulation of 10 000 patients showed that an approximately 1 log10 reduction of CMV viral load will be observed after 12.5 days at the current recommended dose. CONCLUSIONS The developed linked PK/PD population model and subsequent PD simulations showed slow decline of CMV viral load and it appears that dosing of (val)ganciclovir in this study might have been inadequate to achieve fast reduction of viral load. It is clear that further studies are needed to specify the PD effects of ganciclovir by performing systematic measurements of both ganciclovir concentrations and CMV viral loads.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ganciclovir is the mainstay of therapy for the prophylaxis and treatment of Cytomegalovirus. However, therapy with this antiviral agent is hindered by side effects such as myelosuppression, which often leads to therapy cessation. Underdosing, as an attempt to prevent side effects, can lead to drug resistance and therapy failure. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) has been used to overcome these problems. The purpose of this narrative review was to give an overview of ganciclovir TDM, available assays, population pharmacokinetic models, and discuss the current knowledge gaps. METHODS For this narrative review, a nonsystematic literature search was performed on the PubMed database in April 2021. The following search terms were used: ganciclovir, valganciclovir, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, population pharmacokinetics, therapeutic drug monitoring, bioassay, liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography, chromatography, spectrophotometry, and toxicity. In addition, the reference lists of the included articles were screened. RESULTS The most common bioanalysis method identified was liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. There are different models presenting ganciclovir IC50; however, establishing a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target for ganciclovir based on preclinical data is difficult because there are no studies combining dynamic drug exposure in relation to inhibition of viral replication. The data on ganciclovir TDM show large interindividual variability, indicating that TDM may play a role in modifying the dose to reduce toxicity and prevent treatment failure related to low concentrations. The main hurdle for implementing TDM is the lack of robust data to define a therapeutic window. CONCLUSIONS Although the pharmacokinetics (PK) involved is relatively well-described, both the pharmacodynamics (PD) and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship are not. This is because the studies conducted to date have mainly focused on estimating ganciclovir exposure, and owing to the limited therapeutic options for CMV infections, future studies on ganciclovir are warranted.

Abstract
A novel MS‐based analytical method for simultaneous analysis of the antiviral drugs acyclovir, its metabolite 9‐carboxymethoxymethylguanine, ganciclovir, and penciclovir in human serum is described. These antiviral drugs are active against herpes virus infections. Acyclovir and penciclovir are regarded as safe and effective medicines with mild side effects such as headache and gastrointestinal discomfort, and ganciclovir is regarded as more toxic and is known to cause, for example, bone marrow suppression. Acyclovir’s main metabolite 9‐carboxymethoxymethylguanine is a presumptive neurotoxin and should be monitored in patients with impaired renal function or in cases with neurotoxic symptoms. A sample was prepared using protein precipitation with 1% formic acid in methanol containing isotopically labeled internal standard. Chromatographic separation on a biphenyl column and mass spectrometric detection were performed in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode on a Xevo TQ‐S micro with ESI in positive ion mode, within 3 min. Inter‐day assay accuracies for the quality controls varied between 95 and 104% and intra‐day assay between 93 and 105%. Inter‐day and intra‐day assay imprecision for the quality controls ranged between 1.4 and 4.2% and 1.7 and 6.5% respectively. The lower limit of quantification for all four substances was 0.156 μmol/L. It is an accurate and reproducible method for therapeutic drug monitoring.

Difference between Acyclovir and Ganciclovir in the Treatment of Children with Epstein-Barr Virus-Associated Infectious Mononucleosis. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2021; 2021:8996934. [PMID: 34721648 PMCID: PMC8550825 DOI: 10.1155/2021/8996934] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2021] [Accepted: 10/04/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Objective To investigate the efficacy differences between acyclovir and ganciclovir in the treatment of children with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)- associated infectious mononucleosis (IM). Methods A total of 128 children with EBV-IM who were admitted to our hospital from February 2019 to February 2021 were selected and randomly divided into the acyclovir group (n = 64) and the ganciclovir group (n = 64) according to the random number table method. All the children were given symptomatic treatments such as protecting the liver and reducing fever. On this basis, the acyclovir group was given an intravenous drip of acyclovir, while the ganciclovir group was given an intravenous drip of ganciclovir. The treatment was continued for 7 days. After the treatment, the clinical efficacy, disappearance time of symptoms and signs, related blood routine indexes, EBV-DNA negative conversion rate, and the incidence of adverse reactions during the treatment were compared between the two groups. Results After treatment, the total effective rate of the ganciclovir group (92.19%) was higher than that of the acyclovir group (73.44%) and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The disappearance time for the symptoms and signs of angina, fever, lymphadenopathy, hepatomegaly, and splenomegaly in the ganciclovir group was lower than that in the acyclovir group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). After treatment, the levels of atypical lymphocyte proportion, lymphocyte proportion, and WBC count in the two groups were lower than those before treatment, the levels in the ganciclovir group were lower than those in the acyclovir group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). After treatment, the EBV-DNA negative conversion rate (81.25%) in the ganciclovir group was higher than that in the acyclovir group (60.93%) and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). During treatment, the incidence of adverse reactions in the ganciclovir group was significantly lower than that in the acyclovir group and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion In the treatment of children with EBV-IM, the therapeutic effect of ganciclovir is obviously superior to that of acyclovir. Ganciclovir can quickly eliminate the symptoms of angina, fever, enlarged lymph nodes, and other signs in children, can improve abnormal blood indicators, and has a higher negative conversion rate of EBV and less adverse reactions.

Abstract
Ganciclovir and valganciclovir are first choice drugs for the prevention and treatment of cytomegalovirus infection and disease in solid organ and stem cell transplant recipients. Only a few studies on the pharmacokinetics and exposure/efficacy or exposure/safety relationships of ganciclovir and valganciclovir in transplant recipients have been published so far, and there are still controversies about the exposure parameter to use for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). We performed an extensive literature review of the clinical pharmacokinetics data, the exposure/effect relationships in terms of efficacy and safety, and the available tools for valganciclovir and ganciclovir TDM in adults and pediatrics transplant recipients. The pharmacokinetics of ganciclovir and valganciclovir is well described in adults and children, and a high interindividual variability is commonly observed. In contrast, the drug pharmacodynamics has been poorly described in adults and barely in children. The average 24-hour area under the concentration-time curve (AUC0-24h ) seems to be the best predictor of efficacy and toxicity. The benefit of TDM remains controversial in adult patients but should be considered in children due to higher interindividual variability and lower probability of target attainment. Several bayesian estimators based on limited sampling strategies have been developed with this aim and may be used in clinical practice for the AUC-based individual dose adjustment of ganciclovir and valganciclovir.

Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can affect antimicrobial pharmacokinetics. This case report describes a 33-year-old male with newly diagnosed acquired immunodeficiency syndrome presenting in acute severe type 1 respiratory failure. On investigation, the patient had positive cultures for Candida albicans from respiratory specimens and high blood cytomegalovirus titres, and required venovenous ECMO therapy for refractory respiratory failure. Intravenous fluconazole (6 mg/kg, 24-h) and ganciclovir (5 mg/kg, 12-h) was commenced. Pre-oxygenator, post-oxygenator and arterial blood samples were collected after antibiotic administration, and were analysed for total fluconazole and ganciclovir concentrations. Although there was a 40% increase in the volume of distribution for fluconazole relative to healthy volunteers, the pharmacodynamic targets for prophylaxis were still met. The area under the curve exposure of ganciclovir (50.78 mg•h/L) achieved target thresholds. The ECMO circuit had no appreciable effect on achievement of therapeutic exposures of fluconazole and ganciclovir.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of (val)ganciclovir is complicated by toxicity, slow response to treatment and acquired resistance. OBJECTIVES To evaluate a routine therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) programme for ganciclovir in a transplant patient population. METHODS An observational study was performed in transplant recipients from June 2018 to February 2020. Dose adjustments were advised by the TDM pharmacist as part of clinical care. For prophylaxis, a trough concentration (Cmin) of 1-2 mg/L and an AUC24h of >50 mg·h/L were aimed for. For treatment, a Cmin of 2-4 mg/L and an AUC24h of 80-120 mg·h/L were aimed for. RESULTS Ninety-five solid organ and stem cell transplant patients were enrolled. Overall, 450 serum concentrations were measured; with a median of 3 (IQR = 2-6) per patient. The median Cmin and AUC24h in the treatment and prophylaxis groups were 2.0 mg/L and 90 mg·h/L and 0.9 mg/L and 67 mg·h/L, respectively. Significant intra- and inter-patient patient variability was observed. The majority of patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate of more than 120 mL/min/1.73 m2 and patients on continuous veno-venous haemofiltration showed underexposure. The highest Cmin and AUC24h values were associated with the increase in liver function markers and decline in WBC count as compared with baseline. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that a standard weight and kidney function-based dosing regimen resulted in highly variable ganciclovir Cmin and under- and over-exposure were observed in patients on dialysis and in patients with increased renal function. Clearly there is a need to explore the impact of concentration-guided dose adjustments in a prospective study.

Sandaradura I, Alffenaar JW, Cotta MO, Daveson K, Day RO, Van Hal S, Lau C, Marriott DJE, Penm J, Roberts JA, Tabah A, Williams P, Imani S. Emerging therapeutic drug monitoring of anti-infective agents in Australian hospitals: Availability, performance and barriers to implementation. Br J Clin Pharmacol 2021; 88:669-679. [PMID: 34289135 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.14995] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2021] [Revised: 06/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS The purpose of the study was to assess the status of emerging therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of anti-infective agents in Australian hospitals. METHODS A nationwide cross-sectional survey of all Australian hospitals operating in the public and private health sector was conducted between August and September 2019. The survey consisted of questions regarding institutional TDM practice for anti-infective agents and clinical vignettes specific to β-lactam antibiotics. RESULTS Responses were received from 82 unique institutions, representing all Australian states and territories. All 29 (100%) of principal referral (major) hospitals in Australia participated. Five surveys were partially complete. Only 25% (20/80) of hospitals had TDM testing available on-site for any of the eight emerging TDM candidates considered: β-lactam antibiotics, anti-tuberculous agents, flucytosine, fluoroquinolones, ganciclovir, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) drugs, linezolid and teicoplanin. A considerable time lag was noted between TDM sampling and reporting of results. With respect to β-lactam antibiotic TDM, variable indications, pharmacodynamic targets and sampling times were identified. The three greatest barriers to local TDM performance were found to be (1) lack of timely assays/results, (2) lack of institutional-wide expertise and/or training and (3) lack of guidelines to inform ordering of TDM and interpretation of results. The majority of respondents favoured establishing national TDM guidelines and increasing access to dose prediction software, at rates of 89% and 96%, respectively. CONCLUSION Translating emerging TDM evidence into daily clinical practice is slow. Concerted efforts are required to address the barriers identified and facilitate the implementation of standardised practice.

NUDT15 polymorphism influences the metabolism and therapeutic effects of acyclovir and ganciclovir. Nat Commun 2021; 12:4181.

Abstract
Nucleobase and nucleoside analogs (NNA) are widely used as anti-viral and anti-cancer agents, and NNA phosphorylation is essential for the activity of this class of drugs. Recently, diphosphatase NUDT15 was linked to thiopurine metabolism with NUDT15 polymorphism associated with drug toxicity in patients. Profiling NNA drugs, we identify acyclovir (ACV) and ganciclovir (GCV) as two new NNAs metabolized by NUDT15. NUDT15 hydrolyzes ACV and GCV triphosphate metabolites, reducing their effects against cytomegalovirus (CMV) in vitro. Loss of NUDT15 potentiates cytotoxicity of ACV and GCV in host cells. In hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients, the risk of CMV viremia following ACV prophylaxis is associated with NUDT15 genotype (P = 0.015). Donor NUDT15 deficiency is linked to graft failure in patients receiving CMV-seropositive stem cells (P = 0.047). In conclusion, NUDT15 is an important metabolizing enzyme for ACV and GCV, and NUDT15 variation contributes to inter-patient variability in their therapeutic effects.

Valganciclovir-Ganciclovir Use and Systematic Therapeutic Drug Monitoring. An Invitation to Antiviral Stewardship. Antibiotics (Basel) 2021; 10:antibiotics10010077. [PMID: 33467490 PMCID: PMC7831032 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics10010077] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2020] [Revised: 01/07/2021] [Accepted: 01/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Valganciclovir (VGCV) and ganciclovir (GCV) doses must be adjusted according to indication, renal function and weight. No specific therapeutic exposure values have been established. We aimed to evaluate the adequacy of VGCV/GCV doses, to assess the interpatient variability in GCV serum levels, to identify predictive factors for this variability and to assess the clinical impact. This is a prospective study at a tertiary institution including hospitalized patients receiving VGCV/GCV prophylaxis or treatment. Adequacy of the antiviral dose was defined according to cytomegalovirus guidelines. Serum levels were determined using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography. Blood samples were drawn at least 3 days after antiviral initiation. Outcome was considered favorable if there was no evidence of cytomegalovirus infection during prophylaxis or when a clinical and microbiological resolution was attained within 21 days of treatment and no need for drug discontinuation due to toxicity. Seventy consecutive patients [74.3% male/median age: 59.2 years] were included. VGCV was used in 25 patients (35.7%) and GCV in 45 (64.3%). VGCV/GCV initial dosage was deemed adequate in 47/70 cases (67.1%), lower than recommended in 7/70 (10%) and higher in 16/70 (22.9%). Large inter-individual variability of serum levels was observed, with median trough levels of 2.3 mg/L and median peak levels of 7.8 mg/L. Inadequate dosing of VGCV/GCV and peak levels lower than 8.37 or greater than 11.86 mg/L were related to poor outcome. Further studies must be performed to confirm these results and to conclusively establish if VGCV/GCV therapeutic drug monitoring could be useful to improve outcomes in specific clinical situations.

Abstract
Valganciclovir (VGCV) is the prodrug of ganciclovir (GCV). The objective of this study was to establish a population pharmacokinetic model (PPK) of GCV to investigate the PK characteristics of GCV after administration of VGCV in adult Chinese renal allograft recipients. Seventy Chinese renal allograft recipients were given 450 mg (n = 41) or 900 mg (n = 29) VGCV daily. Blood samples were drawn 0-24 hours after 5 days' therapy, and GCV plasma levels were determined. The PPK model was constructed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling, and the Bayesian estimation of AUC0-24h was constructed for an individual patient based on limited plasma samples. The PK of GCV was best described by a 2-compartment model with a first-order absorption process. The CL/F, V2 /F, Q/F, V3 /F, Ka , and lag time of GCV were 15.8 ± 0.71 L/h, 10.9 ± 2.38 L, 3.98 ± 0.40 L/h, 167 ± 44.0 L, 0.23 ± 0.0078 1/h, and 0.93 ± 0.017 hours, respectively. Clearance of creatinine was found to have a significant impact on the CL/F of GCV (P < .01). Sampling strategies consisted of plasma concentrations 0 and 2 and 0, 2, and 4 hours after VGCV administration were shown to be suitable for the estimation of the GCV AUC0-24h . The PPK model was acceptable and can describe the PK of GCV in Chinese renal transplant patients administered VGCV. The AUC0-24h of GCV in Chinese renal transplant patients can be calculated by a limited sampling strategy method.

Abstract
Aim: Multiplexed, high-throughput analysis facilitates therapeutic drug monitoring. 14 drugs with various physico-chemical properties were quantitated in dried blood microsamples. Methods: Analytes were extracted employing eight solvent compositions and seven extraction methods. The applicability of liquid serum, dried serum and dried whole blood calibrators was investigated. Results: High recoveries were attained. Calibration using dried serum yielded lowest total error. Reducing sample hematocrit caused outstanding elevations in recovery of analytes with high polarity or affinity to erythrocytes. 9-day analyte stability was demonstrated. Conclusion: Based on the analysis of spiked samples, multiplexed testing of drugs in dried blood microsamples seems feasible, but with analyte-dependent method performance. Dried serum calibration allows the adaptation of serum-based workflows. Further evaluation using real-life specimens is needed.
