Abstract
BACKGROUND Suboptimal exposure to antituberculosis (anti-TB) drugs has been associated with unfavourable treatment outcomes. We aimed to investigate estimates and determinants of first-line anti-TB drug pharmacokinetics in children and adolescents at a global level. METHODS We systematically searched MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science (1990-2021) for pharmacokinetic studies of first-line anti-TB drugs in children and adolescents. Individual patient data were obtained from authors of eligible studies. Summary estimates of total/extrapolated area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h post-dose (AUC0-24) and peak plasma concentration (C max) were assessed with random-effects models, normalised with current World Health Organization-recommended paediatric doses. Determinants of AUC0-24 and C max were assessed with linear mixed-effects models. RESULTS Of 55 eligible studies, individual patient data were available for 39 (71%), including 1628 participants from 12 countries. Geometric means of steady-state AUC0-24 were summarised for isoniazid (18.7 (95% CI 15.5-22.6) h·mg·L-1), rifampicin (34.4 (95% CI 29.4-40.3) h·mg·L-1), pyrazinamide (375.0 (95% CI 339.9-413.7) h·mg·L-1) and ethambutol (8.0 (95% CI 6.4-10.0) h·mg·L-1). Our multivariate models indicated that younger age (especially <2 years) and HIV-positive status were associated with lower AUC0-24 for all first-line anti-TB drugs, while severe malnutrition was associated with lower AUC0-24 for isoniazid and pyrazinamide. N-acetyltransferase 2 rapid acetylators had lower isoniazid AUC0-24 and slow acetylators had higher isoniazid AUC0-24 than intermediate acetylators. Determinants of C max were generally similar to those for AUC0-24. CONCLUSIONS This study provides the most comprehensive estimates of plasma exposures to first-line anti-TB drugs in children and adolescents. Key determinants of drug exposures were identified. These may be relevant for population-specific dose adjustment or individualised therapeutic drug monitoring.

Effectiveness and pharmacokinetic exposures of first-line drugs used to treat drug-susceptible tuberculosis in children: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Clin Infect Dis 2023; 76:1658-1670fc. [PMID: 36609692 PMCID: PMC10156125 DOI: 10.1093/cid/ciac973] [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: 10/04/2022] [Revised: 12/17/2022] [Accepted: 12/22/2022] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal doses of first line drugs for drug-susceptible tuberculosis (DS-TB) treatment in children and young adolescents remain uncertain. We aimed to determine if children treated using WHO-recommended or higher doses of first-line drugs achieve successful outcomes and sufficient pharmacokinetic exposures. METHODS Titles, abstracts, and full-text articles were screened. We searched Pubmed, EMBASE, CENTRAL, and trial registries from 2010 to 2021. We included studies in children <18 years, being treated for DS-TB with rifampicin, pyrazinamide, isoniazid, and ethambutol. Outcomes were treatment success rates and drug exposures. The protocol for the systematic review was preregistered in PROSPERO, CRD42021274222. RESULTS Of 304 studies identified, 46 studies were eligible for full-text review and 12 and 18 articles were included for the efficacy and pharmacokinetic analysis, respectively. Of 1,830 children included in the efficacy analysis, 82% had favourable outcomes (range 25%-95%). At WHO-recommended doses, exposures to rifampicin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol were lower in children as compared to adults. Children ≤6 years have 35% lower AUC than older children (14.4 (9.9-18.8) vs 22.0 (13.8-30.1) μg.h/mL) and children with HIV (CWHIV) had 35% lower rifampicin AUC than HIV negative children (17.3 (11.4-23.2) vs 26.5 (21.3-31.7) μg.h/mL). Heterogeneity and small sample sizes were major limitations. CONCLUSION There is large variability in outcomes with an average 82% favourable outcomes. Drug exposures are lower in children than in adults. Younger children and CWHIV are underexposed to rifampicin. Standardization of pharmacokinetic paediatric studies and individual patient data analysis with safety assessment are needed to inform optimal dosing.

Abstract
Background The cardiotoxicity of isoniazid on zebrafish embryos and its underlying mechanism is unclear. Methods Here, we exposed zebrafish embryos at 4 h post-fertilization to different levels of isoniazid and recorded the morphology and number of malformed and dead embryos under the microscope. Results The high concentration of isoniazid group showed more malformed and dead embryos than the low concentration of isoniazid group and control group. The morphology of the heart and its alteration were visualized using transgenic zebrafish (cmlc2: GFP) and confirmed by in situ hybridization. The negative effects of isoniazid on the developing heart were characterized by lower heart rate and more heart looping disorders. Mechanistically, PCR showed decreased expression of heart-specific transcription factors when exposed to isoniazid. Oxidative stress was induced by isoniazid in cardiomyocytes, mediated by decreased activities of catalase and superoxide dismutase, which were rescued by scavengers of reactive oxygen species. Conclusion In conclusion, this study demonstrated that isoniazid led to heart looping disturbance by the downregulation of cardiac-specific transcription factors and induction of cardiomyocyte apoptosis.
