Abstract
Polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (pJIA) is a pediatric chronic inflammatory arthritis, much like rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in adults. Drug development for pJIA can potentially be expedited by using extrapolation of efficacy from adult RA; however, the lack of understanding of the response and exposure relationship between pJIA and RA to therapeutic interventions has been a major roadblock. To address this, the objective of our analysis was to conduct a systematic response and exposure comparison between pJIA and RA trials for biologic products. Data from registration RA and pJIA clinical trials (parallel or withdrawal design) for infliximab, tocilizumab, golimumab, and adalimumab were utilized. First, exposure was compared between the pJIA trials and RA pivotal trials. Subsequently, the pJIA vs. RA response similarity was assessed by comparing similar individual subcomponents of the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) scores between the two populations. The exposure comparison demonstrated that at the pJIA trial dose, exposure in pediatric patients was similar to or higher than adults for all biologics evaluated except infliximab, where lower exposure was observed in pJIA patients ≤ 35 kg. Response comparison for individual subcomponents indicated that in a majority of the cases, pJIA response was similar or higher as compared with response from RA trials. Overall, this analysis suggests response similarity between pJIA and RA across the biologic products when exposures are matched between the two populations. These analyses provide support for the use of pharmacokinetic exposure-matching for extrapolation of efficacy from adult RA to pediatric pJIA for the products with established mechanism(s) of action.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) is the leading cause of death from a single infectious agent, requiring at least 6 months of multidrug treatment to achieve cure1. However, the lack of reliable data on antimicrobial pharmacokinetics (PK) at infection sites hinders efforts to optimize antimicrobial dosing and shorten TB treatments2. In this study, we applied a new tool to perform unbiased, noninvasive and multicompartment measurements of antimicrobial concentration-time profiles in humans3. Newly identified patients with rifampin-susceptible pulmonary TB were enrolled in a first-in-human study4 using dynamic [11C]rifampin (administered as a microdose) positron emission tomography (PET) and computed tomography (CT). [11C]rifampin PET-CT was safe and demonstrated spatially compartmentalized rifampin exposures in pathologically distinct TB lesions within the same patients, with low cavity wall rifampin exposures. Repeat PET-CT measurements demonstrated independent temporal evolution of rifampin exposure trajectories in different lesions within the same patients. Similar findings were recapitulated by PET-CT in experimentally infected rabbits with cavitary TB and confirmed using postmortem mass spectrometry. Integrated modeling of the PET-captured concentration-time profiles in hollow-fiber bacterial kill curve experiments provided estimates on the rifampin dosing required to achieve cure in 4 months. These data, capturing the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of intralesional drug PK, have major implications for antimicrobial drug development.

Abstract
Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is a devastating form of tuberculosis (TB), and key TB antimicrobials, including rifampin, have restricted brain penetration. A lack of reliable data on intralesional drug biodistribution in infected tissues has limited pharmacokinetic (PK) modeling efforts to optimize TBM treatments. Current methods to measure intralesional drug distribution rely on tissue resection, which is difficult in humans and generally limited to a single time point even in animals. In this study, we developed a multidrug treatment model in rabbits with experimentally induced TBM and performed serial noninvasive dynamic 11C-rifampin positron emission tomography (PET) over 6 weeks. Area under the curve brain/plasma ratios were calculated using PET and correlated with postmortem mass spectrometry. We demonstrate that rifampin penetration into infected brain lesions is limited, spatially heterogeneous, and decreases rapidly as early as 2 weeks into treatment. Moreover, rifampin concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid did not correlate well with those in the brain lesions. First-in-human 11C-rifampin PET performed in a patient with TBM confirmed these findings. PK modeling predicted that rifampin doses (≥30 mg/kg) were required to achieve adequate intralesional concentrations in young children with TBM. These data demonstrate the proof of concept of PET as a clinically translatable tool to noninvasively measure intralesional antimicrobial distribution in infected tissues.

Abstract
Ion paired solutions of methotrexate in L-arginine/water/propylene glycol systems were evaluated for their potential to enhance the permeation of methotrexate across rabbit nasal mucosa in vitro. The partition coefficient of methotrexate in the methotrexate: L-arginine ion paired systems was observed to be 24 times greater than that of the methotrexate system without L-arginine. The ion pair formation between methotrexate and L-arginine was confirmed by a decrease in the conductivity of the systems in the presence of propylene glycol, a dielectric constant reducing agent. The permeation of methotrexate across the rabbit nasal mucosa from the ion paired systems was observed to be significantly greater (p < 0.05) as compared to control systems of methotrexate solution in water and a sodium salt. Furthermore, a threefold increase in the flux of methotrexate was observed when propylene glycol was added to the ion paired systems. These results suggest that methotrexate: L-arginine ion paired systems have potential in improving the permeation of methotrexate across rabbit nasal mucosa and may form the basis for further development of an intranasal therapeutic system of methotrexate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this pilot study was to determine the pharmacokinetics and tolerability of an investigational diazepam (DZP) formulation and a parenteral midazolam (MDZ) formulation following intranasal (i.n.) administration for the efficient treatment of seizure emergencies. METHODS Each subject received 5 mg of DZP and MDZ via both i.n. and intravenous routes in a four-way, randomized crossover trial. Blood samples were collected over 48 h. DZP and MDZ concentrations were measured using HPLC. Using analog scales, subjects rated tolerability (0 = no change from normal; 10 = maximum intolerability) and pain (0 = no pain; 4 = extreme pain) prior to and 0, 5, 15, 60 min, and 8 h after administration. RESULTS The C(max) and T(max) values for i.n. DZP and MDZ were 179.2 ng/ml and 28.8 min vs 62.8 ng/ml and 21.6 min, respectively. Immediately following i.n. administration, subjects reported tolerability scores of 6.75 and 6.0, and identical pain scores, 3.2, for DZP and MDZ, respectively. CONCLUSION Both formulations were rapidly absorbed following i.n. administration with transient discomfort. DZP had a longer half-life, which may result in an extended duration of action. Further studies in large patient populations to evaluate the safety after long term use, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of i.n. DZP are warranted.
