Remedial Dosing Recommendations for Sirolimus Delayed or Missed Dosages Caused by Poor Medication Compliance in Pediatric Tuberous Sclerosis Complex Patients. Curr Pharm Des 2024; 30:877-886. [PMID: 38454763 DOI: 10.2174/0113816128299479240213151714] [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: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed or missed dosages caused by poor medication compliance significantly affected the treatment of diseases in children. AIMS The present study aimed to investigate the influence of delayed or missed dosages on sirolimus pharmacokinetics (PK) in pediatric tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) patients and to recommend remedial dosages for nonadherent patients. METHODS A published sirolimus population PK model in pediatric TSC patients was used to assess the influence of different nonadherence scenarios and recommend optimally remedial dosages based on Monte Carlo simulation. Thirteen nonadherent scenarios were simulated in this study, including delayed 2h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 10 h, 12 h, 14 h, 16 h, 18 h, 20 h, 22 h, 23.5 h, and missed one dosage. Remedial dosing strategies contained 10-200% of scheduled dosages. The optimal remedial dosage was that with the maximum probability of returning the individual therapeutic range. RESULTS For delayed or missed sirolimus dosages in pediatric TSC patients, when the delayed time was 0-8 h, 8-10 h, 10-18 h, 18-22.7 h, 22.7-24 h, 70%, 60%, 40%, 30%, 20% scheduled dosages were recommended to take immediately. When one dosage was missed, 120% of scheduled dosages were recommended at the next dose. CONCLUSION It was the first time to recommend remedial dosages for delayed or missed sirolimus therapy caused by poor medication compliance in pediatric TSC patients based on Monte Carlo simulation. Meanwhile, the present study provided a potential solution for delayed or missed dosages in clinical practice.

Ceftazidime Plasma Concentrations and Neurotoxicity: The Importance of Therapeutic Drug Monitoring in Patients Undergoing Different Modalities of Renal Replacement Therapy. A Grand Round. Ther Drug Monit 2023; 45:711-713. [PMID: 37448154 DOI: 10.1097/ftd.0000000000001124] [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: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023]
Abstract
ABSTRACT Ceftazidime-avibactam (CTZ-AVM) is a novel cephalosporin/beta-lactamase inhibitor with broad-spectrum activity against multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa . Ceftazidime-induced neurotoxicity is a well-described adverse effect, particularly in patients with renal insufficiency. However, appropriate dosing of ceftazidime-avibactam in patients undergoing renal replacement therapy (RRT) is sparsely investigated, and therapeutic drug monitoring to guide dosing remains lacking. Furthermore, when dose adjustment for impaired renal function is based on CTZ-AVM product information, inferior cure rates have been obtained compared with those with the standard therapy for intra-abdominal infections. Maintaining an effective dose while avoiding toxicity in these patients is challenging. Here, the authors describe the case of a critically ill patient, undergoing 2 modalities of RRT, who developed ceftazidime-induced neurotoxicity as confirmed using ceftazidime therapeutic drug monitoring. This case illustrates a therapeutic drug monitoring-based approach for guiding ceftazidime-avibactam dosing in this context and in diagnosing the cause of neurological symptoms and signs.

Abstract
Ceftazidime is an antibiotic commonly used to treat bacterial infections in term neonates undergoing controlled therapeutic hypothermia (TH) for hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy after perinatal asphyxia. We aimed to describe the population pharmacokinetics (PK) of ceftazidime in asphyxiated neonates during hypothermia, rewarming, and normothermia and propose a population-based rational dosing regimen with optimal PK/pharmacodynamic (PD) target attainment. Data were collected in the PharmaCool prospective observational multicenter study. A population PK model was constructed, and the probability of target attainment (PTA) was assessed during all phases of controlled TH using targets of 100% of the time that the concentration in the blood exceeds the MIC (T>MIC) (for efficacy purposes and 100% T>4×MIC and 100% T>5×MIC to prevent resistance). A total of 35 patients with 338 ceftazidime concentrations were included. An allometrically scaled one-compartment model with postnatal age and body temperature as covariates on clearance was constructed. For a typical patient receiving the current dose of 100 mg/kg of body weight/day in 2 doses and assuming a worst-case MIC of 8 mg/L for Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the PTA was 99.7% for 100% T>MIC during hypothermia (33.7°C; postnatal age [PNA] of 2 days). The PTA decreased to 87.7% for 100% T>MIC during normothermia (36.7°C; PNA of 5 days). Therefore, a dosing regimen of 100 mg/kg/day in 2 doses during hypothermia and rewarming and 150 mg/kg/day in 3 doses during the following normothermic phase is advised. Higher-dosing regimens (150 mg/kg/day in 3 doses during hypothermia and 200 mg/kg/day in 4 doses during normothermia) could be considered when achievements of 100% T>4×MIC and 100% T>5×MIC are desired.

Abstract
Background: β-lactams remain the cornerstone of the empirical therapy to treat various bacterial infections. This systematic review aimed to analyze the data describing the dosing regimen of β-lactams. Methods: Systematic scientific and grey literature was performed in accordance with Preferred Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The studies were retrieved and screened on the basis of pre-defined exclusion and inclusion criteria. The cohort studies, randomized controlled trials (RCT) and case reports that reported the dosing schedule of β-lactams are included in this study. Results: A total of 52 studies met the inclusion criteria, of which 40 were cohort studies, 2 were case reports and 10 were RCTs. The majority of the studies (34/52) studied the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of a drug. A total of 20 studies proposed dosing schedule in pediatrics while 32 studies proposed dosing regimen among adults. Piperacillin (12/52) and Meropenem (11/52) were the most commonly used β-lactams used in hospitalized patients. As per available evidence, continuous infusion is considered as the most appropriate mode of administration to optimize the safety and efficacy of the treatment and improve the clinical outcomes. Conclusion: Appropriate antibiotic therapy is challenging due to pathophysiological changes among different age groups. The optimization of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic parameters is useful to support alternative dosing regimens such as an increase in dosing interval, continuous infusion, and increased bolus doses.

Abstract
Beta-lactam antibiotics are often the backbone of treatment for Gram-negative infections in the critically ill. Beta-lactams exhibit time-dependent killing, and their efficacy depends on the percentage of dosing interval that the concentration remains above the minimum inhibitory concentration. The Gram-negative resistance rates of pathogens are increasing in the intensive care unit (ICU), and critically ill patients often possess physiology that makes dosing more challenging. The volume of distribution is usually increased, and drug clearance is variable. Augmented renal clearance and hypermetabolic states increase the clearance of beta-lactams, while acute kidney injury reduces the clearance. To overcome the factors affecting ICU patients and decreasing susceptibilities, dosing strategies involving higher doses, and extended or continuous infusions may be required. In this review, we specifically examined pharmacokinetic models in ICU patients, to determine the desired beta-lactam regimens for clinical breakpoints of Enterobacterales and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, as determined by the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing. The beta-lactams evaluated included penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems, and monobactams. We found that when treating less-susceptible pathogens, especially P. aeruginosa, continuous infusions are frequently needed to achieve the desired pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic targets. More studies are needed to determine optimal dosing strategies in the novel beta-lactams.

Abstract
A fundamental step in the successful management of sepsis and septic shock is early empiric antimicrobial therapy. However, for this to be effective, several decisions must be addressed simultaneously: (1) antimicrobial choices should be adequate, covering the most probable pathogens; (2) they should be administered in the appropriate dose, (3) by the correct route, and (4) using the correct mode of administration to achieve successful concentration at the infection site. In critically ill patients, antimicrobial dosing is a common challenge and a frequent source of errors, since these patients present deranged pharmacokinetics, namely increased volume of distribution and altered drug clearance, which either increased or decreased. Moreover, the clinical condition of these patients changes markedly over time, either improving or deteriorating. The consequent impact on drug pharmacokinetics further complicates the selection of correct drug schedules and dosing during the course of therapy. In recent years, the knowledge of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, drug dosing, therapeutic drug monitoring, and antimicrobial resistance in the critically ill patients has greatly improved, fostering strategies to optimize therapeutic efficacy and to reduce toxicity and adverse events. Nonetheless, delivering adequate and appropriate antimicrobial therapy is still a challenge, since pathogen resistance continues to rise, and new therapeutic agents remain scarce. We aim to review the available literature to assess the challenges, impact, and tools to optimize individualization of antimicrobial dosing to maximize exposure and effectiveness in critically ill patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To conduct a population pharmacokinetic analysis of continuous-infusion ceftazidime in a retrospective cohort of paediatric HSCT patients who were empirically treated for febrile neutropenia (FN) and who underwent therapeutic drug monitoring of ceftazidime steady-state plasma concentrations (Css) for optimization of drug exposure. METHODS A non-parametric approach with Pmetrics was used for pharmacokinetic analysis and covariate evaluation. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to calculate the PTA of the pharmacodynamic determinant of efficacy (Css/MIC ≥4) against Pseudomonas aeruginosa with continuous-infusion ceftazidime dosages of 1-6 g daily. The Css safety threshold was arbitrarily placed at 100 mg/L and advisable dosages were used. RESULTS A total of 46 patients with 70 ceftazidime Css values were included. Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and body surface area were the covariates associated with drug clearance. At the EUCAST clinical breakpoint of 8 mg/L, simulations showed that continuous-infusion ceftazidime dosages of 4-6 g daily attained optimal PTAs (>90%) across most of 16 different clinical scenarios based on four classes of eGFR (50-145, 145.1-200, 200.1-286 and 286.1-422 mL/min/1.73 m2) and body surface area (0.30-0.64, 0.65-0.88, 0.89-1.34 and 1.35-1.84 m2). In patients with body surface area 0.30-0.64 m2 and eGFR ≤200 mL/min/1.73 m2 the advisable dose of 3 g daily allowed only suboptimal PTAs (<75%). The cumulative fraction of response against MIC distribution of P. aeruginosa was >87%. CONCLUSIONS Continuous-infusion ceftazidime dosages ranging from 3 to 6 g daily according to different classes of eGFR and body surface area may allow optimized empirical treatment of P. aeruginosa infections in paediatric HSCT patients with FN.

Crit Care 2019; 23:104.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Beta-lactam antibiotics (βLA) are the most commonly used antibiotics in the intensive care unit (ICU). ICU patients present many pathophysiological features that cause pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) specificities, leading to the risk of underdosage. The French Society of Pharmacology and Therapeutics (SFPT) and the French Society of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine (SFAR) have joined forces to provide guidelines on the optimization of beta-lactam treatment in ICU patients. METHODS A consensus committee of 18 experts from the two societies had the mission of producing these guidelines. The entire process was conducted independently of any industry funding. A list of questions formulated according to the PICO model (Population, Intervention, Comparison, and Outcomes) was drawn-up by the experts. Then, two bibliographic experts analysed the literature published since January 2000 using predefined keywords according to PRISMA recommendations. The quality of the data identified from the literature was assessed using the GRADE® methodology. Due to the lack of powerful studies having used mortality as main judgement criteria, it was decided, before drafting the recommendations, to formulate only "optional" recommendations. RESULTS After two rounds of rating and one amendment, a strong agreement was reached by the SFPT-SFAR guideline panel for 21 optional recommendations and a recapitulative algorithm for care covering four areas: (i) pharmacokinetic variability, (ii) PK-PD relationship, (iii) administration modalities, and (iv) therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). The most important recommendations regarding βLA administration in ICU patients concerned (i) the consideration of the many sources of PK variability in this population; (ii) the definition of free plasma concentration between four and eight times the Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of the causative bacteria for 100% of the dosing interval as PK-PD target to maximize bacteriological and clinical responses; (iii) the use of continuous or prolonged administration of βLA in the most severe patients, in case of high MIC bacteria and in case of lower respiratory tract infection to improve clinical cure; and (iv) the use of TDM to improve PK-PD target achievement. CONCLUSIONS The experts strongly suggest the use of personalized dosing, continuous or prolonged infusion and therapeutic drug monitoring when administering βLA in critically ill patients.

Abstract
Cefepime, ceftazidime, and piperacillin/tazobactam are commonly used beta-lactam antibiotics in the critical care setting. For critically ill patients receiving prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy (PIRRT), limited pharmacokinetic data are available to inform clinicians on the dosing of these agents. Monte Carlo simulations (MCS) can be used to guide drug dosing when pharmacokinetic trials are not feasible. For each antibiotic, MCS using previously published pharmacokinetic data derived from critically ill patients was used to evaluate multiple dosing regimens in 4 different prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy effluent rates and prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy duration combinations (4 L/h × 10 hours or 5 L/h × 8 hours in hemodialysis and hemofiltration modes). Antibiotic regimens were also modeled depending on whether drugs were administered during or well before prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy therapy commenced. The probability of target attainment (PTA) was calculated using each antibiotic's pharmacodynamic target during the first 48 hours of therapy. Optimal doses were defined as the smallest daily dose achieving ≥90% probability of target attainment in all prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy effluent and duration combinations. Cefepime 1 g every 6 hours following a 2 g loading dose, ceftazidime 2 g every 12 hours, and piperacillin/tazobactam 4.5 g every 6 hours attained the desired pharmacodynamic target in ≥90% of modeled prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy patients. Alternatively, if an every 6-hours cefepime regimen is not desired, the cefepime 2 g pre-prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy and 3 g post-prolonged intermittent renal replacement therapy regimen also met targets. For ceftazidime, 1 g every 6 hours or 3 g continuous infusion following a 2 g loading dose also met targets. These recommended doses provide simple regimens that are likely to achieve the pharmacodynamics target while yielding the least overall drug exposure, which should result in lower toxicity rates. These findings should be validated in the clinical setting.

Abstract
Objectives To describe the population PKs of ceftazidime in critically ill patients receiving sustained low-efficiency dialysis (SLED). Patients and methods This study was performed in ICUs of a university hospital. We collected blood samples during three consecutive days of SLED sessions in patients receiving ceftazidime. Concentration versus time curves were analysed using a population PKs approach with Pmetrics ® . Monte Carlo simulation for the first 24 h including a 6 h SLED session was performed with the final model. The fractional target attainment against the MIC of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was executed using targets of 50 and 100% fT > MIC . Results In total, 211 blood samples of 16 critically ill patients under SLED were collected. SLED treatments were 299.3 (68.4) min in duration. A two-compartment linear population PK model was most appropriate. The mean (SD) CL of ceftazidime on SLED, and off SLED were 5.32 (3.2), 1.06 (1.0) L/h respectively. The PTA for 50% fT > MIC for a dose of 1 g intravenously every 8 h was 98%. Assuming a target of 100% fT > MIC a dose of 2 g every 12 h covers isolates with MIC ≤8 mg/L with a PTA of 96%. Conclusion In critically ill patients receiving SLED, ceftazidime 1 g every 8 h and ceftazidime 2 g every 12 h appear to be sufficient for achieving traditional (50% fT > MIC ) and aggressive PD targets (100% fT > MIC ) for susceptible isolates (MIC ≤8 mg/L), respectively.

Abstract
An accurate dosage determination is required in neonates when antibiotics are used. The adult data cannot be simply extrapolated to the pediatric population due to significant individual differences. We aimed to identify factors impacting ceftazidime exposure in neonates and to provide drug dosing guidance to clinicians. Forty-three neonates aged less than 60 days with proven or suspected infections were enrolled in this study. After intravenous administration, blood samples were collected, and plasma ceftazidime concentration was determined using a HPLC method. Pharmacokinetic data were fitted using a nonlinear mixed-effects model approach. One-compartmental model could nicely characterize the ceftazidime in vivo behavior. The covariate test found that the postmenstrual age (day) was strongly associated with systemic drug clearance (L/h), and the effect of body weight (kg) was identified as the covariate on distribution volume (L). Compared with the base model, the addition of covariates improved the goodness-of-fit of the final model. Model validation (bootstrap, visual predictive check, and prediction-corrected visual predictive check) suggested a robust and reliable pharmacokinetic model was developed. Personalized dosage regimens were provided based on model simulations. The intravenous dose should be adjusted according to postmenstrual age, body weight, and minimum inhibitory concentration.

Abstract
This retrospective cohort study included 53 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), with an average age of 69 years, without neurologic disorder before initiation of a continuous piperacillin infusion at the standard dose and who underwent piperacillin serum concentration monitoring. Among them, 23 developed a neurologic disorder for which the piperacillin causality was chronologically and semiologically suggestive. A concentration threshold of 157.2 mg/liter independently predicted neurotoxicity with 96.7% specificity and 52.2% sensitivity and may constitute a limitation when targeting less susceptible pathogens.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic index determining β-lactam activity is the percentage of the dosing interval (%T) during which their free serum concentration remains above a critical threshold over the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). Regrettably, neither the value of %T nor that of the threshold are clearly defined for critically-ill patients. Areas covered: We review and assess the targets proposed for β-lactams in critical illness by screening the literature since 1997. Depending on the study intention (clinical cure vs. suppression of resistance), targets proposed range from 20%T > 1xMIC to 100%T > 5xMIC. Assessment and comparative analysis of their respective clinical efficacy suggest that a value of 100%T > 4xMIC may be needed. Simulation studies, however, show that this target will not be reached at first dose for the majority of critically-ill patients if using the most commonly recommended doses. Expert commentary: Considering that critically-ill patients are highly vulnerable and likely to experience antibiotic underexposure, and because effective initial treatment is a key determinant of clinical outcome, we support the use of a target of 100%T > 4xMIC, which could not only maximize efficacy but also minimize emergence of resistance. Clinical and microbiological studies are needed to test for the feasibility and effectiveness of reaching such a demanding target.

Abstract
Beta-lactam antibiotics serve as a cornerstone in the management of bacterial infections because of their wide spectrum of activity and low toxicity. Since resistance rates among bacteria are continuously on the rise and the pipeline for new antibiotics does not meet this trend, an optimization of current beta-lactam treatment is needed. This review provides an overview of optimization through use of prolonged- and continuous-infusion dosing strategies compared with more traditional intermittent infusions. Included is an overview of the scientific basis for using these nontraditional prolonged- and continuous-infusion-based regimens, with a focus on major areas in which the clinical laboratory can support the clinical use of these regimens.

Abstract
The synergy of carbapenem combinations regarding Enterobacteriaceae producing different types of carbapenemases was study through different approaches: flow cytometry and computational analysis. Ten well characterized Enterobacteriaceae (KPC, verona integron-encoded metallo-β-lactamases -VIM and OXA-48-like enzymes) were selected for the study. The cells were incubated with a combination of ertapenem with imipenem, meropenem, or doripenem and killing kinetic curves performed with and without reinforcements of the drugs. A cephalosporin was also used in combination with ertapenem. A flow cytometric assay with DiBAC4-(3), a membrane potential dye, was developed in order to evaluate the cellular lesion after 2 h incubation. A chemical computational study was performed to understand the affinity of the different drugs to the different types of enzymes. Flow cytometric analysis and time-kill assays showed a synergic effect against KPC and OXA-48 producing-bacteria with all combinations; only ertapenem with imipenem was synergic against VIM producing-bacteria. A bactericidal effect was observed in OXA-48-like enzymes. Ceftazidime plus ertapenem was synergic against ESBL-negative KPC producing-bacteria. Ertapenem had the highest affinity for those enzymes according to chemical computational study. The synergic effect between ertapenem and others carbapenems against different carbapenemase-producing bacteria, representing a therapeutic choice, was described for the first time. Easier and faster laboratorial methods for carbapenemase characterization are urgently needed. The design of an ertapenem derivative with similar affinity to carbapenemases but exhibiting more stable bonds was demonstrated as highly desirable.

Abstract
Background In ICU patients with normal serum creatinine (SCr), a
state of increased renal drug excretion has been described (creatinine clearance
≥130 ml/min/1.73 m2), and named augmented renal
clearance (ARC). In ICU patients, the accuracy of GFR estimates is insufficient.
However, in clinical practice, the physician has not at one’s disposal patient
measured creatinine clearance (CrCl) when prescribing. The primary objective of
this study was to assess the accuracy of 4 formulas to estimate GFR
(Cockcroft-Gault (CG), Robert, sMDRD, and CKD-EPI formulas) with other covariates
to detect ARC in ICU patients. Methods We enroled 360 consecutive ICU patients with normal
SCr in this prospective observational study conducted in a primary teaching
hospital. Comparisons between CrCl values and 4 estimated GFR (eGFR) formulas were
estimated. Results In these 360 patients, ARC was observed in 33 % of
patients most of them trauma. Individual predictive values of equations were poor
and the phenomenon increased in ARC subgroup. CG and CKD-EPI were more accurate to
detect an ARC. Multivariable analysis showed that the best-fitting model included
3 factors independently correlated to ARC: trauma patients, cut-off values of age
≤58 years, and CKD-EPI more than
108 ml/min/1.73 m2. Conclusions In ICU patients with normal SCr, eGFR formulas are
imprecise in assessing CrCl. If measured CrCl must be ideally used to detect
modifications of the renal function, in clinical practice, age, reason for
admission, and CKD-EPI could be used as screening tool to identify ARC.

Abstract
Critically ill patients are at high risk for development of life-threatening infection leading to sepsis and multiple organ failure. Adequate antimicrobial therapy is pivotal for optimizing the chances of survival. However, efficient dosing is problematic because pathophysiological changes associated with critical illness impact on pharmacokinetics of mainly hydrophilic antimicrobials. Concentrations of hydrophilic antimicrobials may be increased because of decreased renal clearance due to acute kidney injury. Alternatively, antimicrobial concentrations may be decreased because of increased volume of distribution and augmented renal clearance provoked by systemic inflammatory response syndrome, capillary leak, decreased protein binding and administration of intravenous fluids and inotropes. Often multiple conditions that may influence pharmacokinetics are present at the same time thereby excessively complicating the prediction of adequate concentrations. In general, conditions leading to underdosing are predominant. Yet, since prediction of serum concentrations remains difficult, therapeutic drug monitoring for individual fine-tuning of antimicrobial therapy seems the way forward.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pharmacokinetic variability in critically ill patients is the result of the overlapping of multiple pathophysiological and clinical factors. Unpredictable exposure from standard dosage regimens may influence the outcome of treatment. Therefore, strategies for dosage individualisation are recommended in this setting. AREAS COVERED The authors focus on several approaches for dosage individualisation that have been developed, ranging from the well-established therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) up to the innovative application of pharmacogenomics criteria. Furthermore, the authors summarise the specific population pharmacokinetic models for different drugs developed for critically ill patients to improve the initial dosage selection and the Bayesian forecasting of serum concentrations. The authors also consider the use of Monte Carlo simulation for the selection of dosage strategies. EXPERT OPINION Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) modelling and dosage individualisation methods based on mathematical and statistical criteria will contribute in improving pharmacologic treatment in critically ill patients. Moreover, substantial effort will be necessary to integrate pharmacogenomics criteria into critical care practice. The lack of availability of target biomarkers for dosage adjustment emphasizes the value of TDM which allows a large part of treatment outcome variability to be controlled.
