Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a leading cause of death among infectious diseases, particularly in poor countries. Viral infections, multidrug-resistant and ex-tensively drug-resistant TB strains, as well as the coexistence of chronic illnesses such as diabetes mellitus (DM) greatly aggravate TB morbidity and mortality. DM [particularly type 2 DM (T2DM)] and TB have converged making their control even more challenging. Two contemporary global epidemics, TB-DM behaves like a syndemic, a synergistic confluence of two highly prevalent diseases. T2DM is a risk factor for developing more severe forms of multi-drug resistant-TB and TB recurrence after preventive treatment. Since a bidirectional relationship exists between TB and DM, it is necessary to concurrently treat both, and promote recommendations for the joint management of both diseases. There are also some drug-drug interactions resulting in adverse treatment outcomes in TB-DM patients including treatment failure, and reinfection. In addition, autophagy may play a role in these comorbidities. Therefore, the TB-DM comorbidities present several health challenges, requiring a focus on multidisciplinary collaboration and integrated strategies, to effectively deal with this double burden. To effectively manage the comorbidity, further screening in affected countries, more suitable drugs, and better treatment strategies are required.

Abstract
Malaria can spread quickly in the population and develop rapidly. Patients with malaria usually die due to lack of timely and effective treatment. Artesunate (AS) is a highly effective and low-toxicity antimalarial drug, but its short half-life in the blood makes it difficult to control the malaria infection completely. Red blood cells (RBCs) have great biodegradability and can be employed to encapsulate various drugs. In this work, we employed RBCs as carriers to encapsulate AS and modified them with glutaraldehyde to construct an intelligent response drug delivery system (G-AS-RBCs) targeting the liver for antimalaria therapeutic and prophylactic activity. The G-AS-RBCs had a drug loading amount of 6.56 ± 0.14 mg 10-8 cells, suggesting excellent biocompatibility. G-AS-RBCs exhibited strong liver targeting efforts and can be maintained in the mice for at least 9 days, showing the potential for malaria prevention. The enrichment of AS in the liver was enhanced because of the natural liver targeting of erythrocytes and the enhancement of liver targeting by glutaraldehyde treatment. Furthermore, AS entrapped into RBCs also showed improved slow-release characteristics and achieved a better effect of inhibiting or killing the malaria parasite than free drugs. Therefore, this RBC-based strategy is expected to realize the prevention and treatment of malaria and has good application prospects.

Management of Polypharmacy and Potential Drug-Drug Interactions in Patients with Mycobacterial Infection: A 1-Year Experience of a Multidisciplinary Outpatient Clinic. Antibiotics (Basel) 2023; 12:1171. [PMID: 37508267 PMCID: PMC10375959 DOI: 10.3390/antibiotics12071171] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Revised: 07/06/2023] [Accepted: 07/08/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
In 2022, we opened an outpatient clinic for the management of polypharmacy and potential drug-drug interactions (pDDIs) in patients with mycobacterial infection (called GAP-MyTB). All patients who underwent a GAP-MyTB visit from March 2022 to March 2023 were included in this retrospective analysis. Fifty-two patients were included in the GAP-MyTB database. They were given 10.4 ± 3.7 drugs (2.8 ± 1.0 and 7.8 ± 3.9 were, respectively, antimycobacterial agents and co-medications). Overall, 262 pDDIs were identified and classified as red-flag (2%), orange-flag (72%), or yellow-flag (26%) types. The most frequent actions suggested after the GAP-MyTB assessment were to perform ECG (52%), therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM, 40%), and electrolyte monitoring (33%) among the diagnostic interventions and to reduce/stop proton pump inhibitors (37%), reduce/change statins (14%), and reduce anticholinergic burden (8%) among the pharmacologic interventions. The TDM of rifampicin revealed suboptimal exposure in 39% of patients that resulted in a TDM-guided dose increment (from 645 ± 101 to 793 ± 189 mg/day, p < 0.001). The high prevalence of polypharmacy and risk of pDDIs in patients with mycobacterial infection highlights the need for ongoing education on prescribing principles and the optimal management of individual patients. A multidisciplinary approach involving physicians and clinical pharmacologists could help achieve this goal.

Population pharmacokinetics and model-based dosing evaluation of bedaquiline in multidrug-resistant tuberculosis patients. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1022090. [PMID: 37050904 PMCID: PMC10083270 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1022090] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2022] [Accepted: 03/06/2023] [Indexed: 03/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Aims: Bedaquiline is now recommended to all patients in the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) using standard dosing regimens. As the ability to measure blood drug concentrations is very limited, little is known about drug exposure and treatment outcome. Thus, this study aimed to model the population pharmacokinetics as well as to evaluate the currently recommended dosage.Methodology: A bedaquiline population pharmacokinetic (PK) model was developed based on samples collected from the development cohort before and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, 18, and 24 h after drug intake on week 2 and week 4 of treatment. In a prospective validation cohort of patients with MDR-TB, treated with bedaquiline-containing standardized regimen, drug exposure was assessed using the developed population PK model and thresholds were identified by relating to 2-month and 6-month sputum culture conversion and final treatment outcome using classification and regression tree analysis. In an exploratory analysis by the probability of target attainment (PTA) analysis, we evaluated the recommended dosage at different MIC levels by Middlebrook 7H11 agar dilution (7H11).Results: Bedaquiline pharmacokinetic data from 55 patients with MDR-TB were best described by a three-compartment model with dual zero-order input. Body weight was a covariate of the clearance and the central volume of distribution, albumin was a covariate of the clearance. In the validation cohort, we enrolled 159 patients with MDR-TB. The 7H11 MIC mode (range) of bedaquiline was 0.06 mg (0.008–0.25 mg/L). The study participants with AUC0-24h/MIC above 175.5 had a higher probability of culture conversion after 2-month treatment (adjusted relative risk, aRR:16.4; 95%CI: 5.3–50.4). Similarly, those with AUC0-24h/MIC above 118.2 had a higher probability of culture conversion after 6-month treatment (aRR:20.1; 95%CI: 2.9–139.4), and those with AUC0-24h/MIC above 74.6 had a higher probability of successful treatment outcome (aRR:9.7; 95%CI: 1.5–64.8). Based on the identified thresholds, simulations showed that the WHO recommended dosage (400 mg once daily for 14 days followed by 200 mg thrice weekly) resulted in PTA >90% for the majority of isolates (94%; MICs ≤0.125 mg/L).Conclusion: We established a population PK model for bedaquiline in patients with MDR-TB in China. Based on the thresholds and MIC distribution derived in a clinical study, the recommended dosage of bedaquiline is sufficient for the treatment of MDR-TB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Optimal drug dosing is important to ensure adequate response to treatment, prevent development of drug resistance and reduce drug toxicity. The aim of these clinical standards is to provide guidance on 'best practice´ for dosing and management of TB drugs.METHODS: A panel of 57 global experts in the fields of microbiology, pharmacology and TB care were identified; 51 participated in a Delphi process. A 5-point Likert scale was used to score draft standards. The final document represents the broad consensus and was approved by all participants.RESULTS: Six clinical standards were defined: Standard 1, defining the most appropriate initial dose for TB treatment; Standard 2, identifying patients who may be at risk of sub-optimal drug exposure; Standard 3, identifying patients at risk of developing drug-related toxicity and how best to manage this risk; Standard 4, identifying patients who can benefit from therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM); Standard 5, highlighting education and counselling that should be provided to people initiating TB treatment; and Standard 6, providing essential education for healthcare professionals. In addition, consensus research priorities were identified.CONCLUSION: This is the first consensus-based Clinical Standards for the dosing and management of TB drugs to guide clinicians and programme managers in planning and implementation of locally appropriate measures for optimal person-centred treatment to improve patient care.

Abstract
Tuberculosis is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, primarily affecting
low- and middle income countries and individuals with limited-resources within
fractured health care systems. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic has only
served to aggravate the already existing diagnostic gap, decreasing the number
of people who get diagnosed and thereby complete successful treatment. In
addition to this, comorbidities act as an external component that when added to
the TB management equation, renders it even more complex. Among the various
comorbidities that interact with TB disease, diabetes mellitus and depression
are two of the most prevalent among non-communicable diseases within the TB
population and merits a thoughtful consideration when the healthcare system
provides care for them. TB patients with diabetes mellitus (TB-DM) or depression
both have an increased risk of mortality, relapse and recurrence. Both of these
diseases when in presence of TB present a ‘vicious-circle-like’ mechanism,
meaning that the effect of each disease can negatively add up, in a synergistic
manner, complicating the patient’s health state. Among TB-DM patients, high
glucose blood levels can decrease the effectiveness of anti-tuberculosis drugs;
however, higher doses of anti-tuberculous drugs could potentially decrease the
effects of DM drugs. Among the TB-depression patients, not only do we have the
adherence to treatment problems, but depression itself can biologically shift
the immunological profile responsible for TB containment, and the other way
around, TB itself can alter the hormonal balance of several neurotransmitters
responsible for depression. In this paper, we review these and other important
aspects such as the pharmacological interactions found in the treatment of TB-DM
and TB-depression patients and the implication on TB care and pharmacological
considerations.

Abstract
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) remain a primary global threat to the end of tuberculosis (TB) era. Delamanid (DLM) is a nitro-dihydro-imidazooxazole derivative utilized to treat MDR-TB. DLM has distinct mechanism of action, inhibiting methoxy- and keto-mycolic acid (MA) synthesis through the F420 coenzyme mycobacteria system and generating nitrous oxide. While DLM resistance among MTB strains is uncommon, there are increasing reports in Asia and Europe, and such resistance will prolong the treatment courses of patients infected with MDR-TB. In this review, we address the antimycobacterial properties of DLM, report the global prevalence of DLM resistance, discuss the synergism of DLM with other anti-TB drugs, and evaluate the documented clinical trials to provide new insights into the clinical use of this antibiotic.

Concurrent chemoradiotherapy with S-1 compared with concurrent chemoradiotherapy with docetaxel and cisplatin for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Radiat Oncol 2021; 16:94. [PMID: 34039375 PMCID: PMC8157673 DOI: 10.1186/s13014-021-01821-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2020] [Accepted: 05/19/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background This retrospective study was to assess and compare the toxicity and efficacy of concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) with S-1 or docetaxel and cisplatin in patients with locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods Patients with locally advanced ESCC who received CCRT with S-1 (70 mg/m2 twice daily on days 1–14, every 3 weeks for 2 cycles, S-1 group) or docetaxel (25 mg/m2) and cisplatin (25 mg/m2) on day 1 weekly (DP group) between 2014 and 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Radiotherapy was delivered in 1.8–2.0 Gy per fraction to a total dose of 50–60 Gy. Treatment-related toxicities (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0), response rate, and survival outcomes were compared between groups. Results A total of 175 patients were included in this study (72 in the S-1 group and 103 in the DP group). Baseline characteristics were well balanced between the two groups. The incidence of grade 3–4 adverse events were significantly lower in the S-1 group than that of the DP group (22.2% vs. 45.6%, p = 0.002). In the DP group, elderly patients (> 60 years) had a significantly higher rate of grade 3–4 adverse events than younger patients (58.1% vs. 31.3%, p = 0.01). The objective overall response rate (complete response + partial response) was 68.1% in the S-1 group, and 73.8% the DP group (p = 0.497). The 3-year overall survival was 34.7% in the S-1 group, and 38.8% in the DP group (p = 0.422). The 3-year progression free survival in the DP group was higher than that in the S-1 group but without significant difference (33.0% vs. 25.0%, p = 0.275). Conclusion CCRT with S-1 is not inferior to CCRT with docetaxel and cisplatin and is better tolerated in in elderly patients with locally advanced ESCC.

Abstract
Bedaquiline (TMC-207) is a key anti-tubercular drug to fight against multidrug resistance tuberculosis. Little information is available till date on the impact of any disease state toward its pharmacokinetic behavior. The present research work aimed to investigate the effect of renal impairment and diabetes mellitus on the oral pharmacokinetics of bedaquiline in the rat model. Renal impairment and diabetes mellitus were induced in the Wistar rat model separately using cisplatin and streptozotocin, respectively, and thereafter, an oral pharmacokinetic study of bedaquiline was carried out in the individual disease models as well as in the normal rat model. Pharmacokinetic parameters of bedaquiline were not altered markedly in cisplatin-induced renal-impaired rats compared to normal rats except an area under the curve (AUC) for plasma concentration of bedaquiline in the experimental time frame (AUC0-t ) reduced to 3477 ± 228 from 4984 ± 1174 ng h/mL, respectively. Maximum plasma concentrations of bedaquiline (259 ± 77 ng/mL), AUC0-t (3112 ± 1046 ng h/mL), and AUC0-∞ (3673 ± 1493 ng h/mL) were significantly reduced along with an increase in the clearance of bedaquiline (3.1 ± 1.1 L/h/kg) in the case of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats compared to respective pharmacokinetic parameters of bedaquiline (482 ± 170 ng/mL, 4984 ± 1174 ng h/mL, and 6137 ± 1542 ng h/mL) in the normal rats. Preclinical findings suggest that dose adjustment of bedaquiline is required in the diabetes mellitus condition to prevent the therapeutic failure of bedaquiline treatment, but clinical exploration is needed to establish the fact. It is the first report for the consequence of renal impairment and diabetes mellitus on the pharmacokinetics of bedaquiline in the preclinical model.

Abstract
The development of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) is a major threat worldwide. Based on World Health Organization (WHO) reports, it is estimated that more than 500 000 new cases of drug-resistant TB occur annually. In addition, there are alarming reports of increasing multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) and the emergence of extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR-TB) from different countries of the world. Therefore, new options for TB therapy are required. Bedaquiline (BDQ), a novel anti-TB drug, has significant minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) both against drug-susceptible and drug-resistant TB. Moreover, BDQ was recently approved for therapy of MDR-TB. The current narrative review summarises the available data on BDQ resistance, describes its antimicrobial properties, and provides new perspectives on clinical use of this novel anti-TB agent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dopamine and serotonin receptors are present in lymphocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils, and have a mediating role in the immune system to respond to infections, including bacterial tuberculosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study, at first, the changes in the expression pattern of 5 dopamine and 2 serotonin (5HTR2B & 5HTR2C) gene receptors were examined in the two groups of healthy and Tuberculosis patients using Real-Time PCR. Then pharmacogenetic studies aimed to induce autophagy on a lung monocyte cell line (THP1) infected with the standard strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (H37RV) were performed. Stimulation of the pro-inflammatory pathway by secreting cytokines before and after drug efficacy was investigated. RESULTS According to the result, dopamine receptor 2 genes showed decreased expression in patients with tuberculosis compared to normal individuals, and serotonin receptor genes showed increased expression. Additionally, with the effects of Bromocriptine and Fluoxetine, pro-inflammatory pathways were activated in macrophages infected with H37RV, and ELISA results showed that the levels of IL6 and TNFα secreted in these cells were significantly increased. CONCLUSION According to the results, these receptors agonists or antagonists can activate the autophagy pathway to kill TB bacteria.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetes mellitus (DM), a common tuberculosis (TB) comorbidity, is associated with delayed bacillary clearance during anti-TB treatment and unfavorable outcomes. Bedaquiline (BDQ), when used as part of multidrug regimen for multidrug-resistant/extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR/XDR-TB), has been shown to be effective and safe although treatment outcome and risks for patients with MDR/XDR-TB and DM are unknown. A multicenter retrospective study was conducted to compared the safety and effectiveness of 24-week BDQ-containing anti-TB treatment for patients with MDR/XDR-TB with and without DM. METHODS The study of patients with MDR/XDR-TB with or without DM (enrolled February 2018-September 2019, 21 Chinese hospitals) was supervised by the New Drug Introduction and Protection Program (NDIP). Of 640 patients with MDR/XDR-TB receiving BDQ-containing anti-TB treatments, two propensity score-matched groups (107 DM/107 non-DM) were compared for cumulative culture conversion rate, time to culture conversion, adverse events, and corrected QT interval. RESULTS Body mass index was higher in patients with DM than patients without DM (23.29 ± 3.9 vs. 20.5 ± 3.6, P < 0.001); lung cavity prevalence (86.9% vs. 72.9%, P = 0.037) was also higher in patients with DM; the non-DM group had higher hepatitis prevalence (29.0% vs. 15.9%, P = 0.022). No significant intergroup differences were found for sputum culture conversion rate at week 8 (80.0% vs. 81.4%, P = 0.884), at week 24 (95.6% vs. 98.2%, P = 0.629), or for median time to sputum culture conversion [56 days (IQR 28-63) vs. 56 days (IQR 28-84) (P = 0.687)]. Favorable post-24-week treatment outcomes were presented by 90.7% and 93.5% in the DM group and non-DM group, respectively, without significant intergroup differences (P = 0.448). The DM adverse event rate exceeded non-DM rate (77.6% vs. 64.5%, P = 0.035). CONCLUSION Despite some differences in baseline characteristics, Chinese patients with MDR/XDR-TB with or without DM had similar sputum culture conversion rates and favorable treatment outcomes post-24-week BDQ-containing anti-TB treatment. Low BMI but not DM is risk factor associated with unfavorable outcome of patients with MDR/XDR-TB.

Abstract
AIMS With a prevalence of 16%, diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most frequent non-communicable comorbidities of tuberculosis (TB). DM is a major risk factor for adverse TB outcomes and may require personalized TB drug dosing regimens. However, information on the inclusion of DM in TB drug trials is lacking. We aimed to assess the percentage of recent TB drug efficacy trials that included DM patients. METHODS A systematic review was performed and reported according to PRISMA guidelines. PubMed, Science Direct, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases were systematically searched for TB drug trials published between 1 January 2012 and 12 September 2017. Primary outcome was the percentage of TB drug trials performed around the world that included DM patients. RESULTS Out of the included 41 TB drug trials, 12 (29.3%) reported DM comorbidity among the study participants. Nine trials (21.9%) excluded all patients with DM comorbidity, ten (24.4%) excluded only insulin-dependent or uncontrolled DM, and 10 (24.4%) did not mention whether DM was included or excluded. Of the 12 trials that included DM comorbidity, the majority did not report the diagnostic criteria for DM and none reported outcomes in the DM subpopulation. Inclusion of DM was higher in drug-resistant-TB trials (67%, P = .003, vs drug-susceptible) and trials performed in Asia (60%, P = .006, vs Africa). CONCLUSIONS Fewer than 1/3 recent TB drug trials reported the inclusion of DM. To better reflect real-world DM prevalence and differential TB drug effectiveness, inclusion of DM patients requires increased attention for future TB drug trials.
