Abstract
BACKGROUND Many older adult patients receive low-dose teicoplanin with varied regimens, leading to a lack of clarity on its optimal regimens and toxicity profiles in China. This study aimed to clarify these aspects by analyzing teicoplanin treatment concentrations and toxicities. METHODS We included older adult patients administered teicoplanin at four tertiary hospitals in Beijing from June 2021 to July 2023, targeting a trough concentration (Cmin) ≥ 10 mg/L. Teicoplanin concentrations and toxicities were monitored dynamically. RESULTS From 204 patients, we obtained 632 teicoplanin concentrations. Most patients (83.3%) received low-dose regimens. Suboptimal concentrations were found in 66.4% of patients within 7 days of treatment and 17.0% after 15 days. Cmin gradually increased with treatment duration and was influenced initially by creatinine and by both body weight and creatinine from days 8 to 14. The target concentration was achieved in 53.1%, 33.9%, 15.6%, and 5.5% of patients at 3, ≤ 7, 8-14, and ≥ 15 days after withdrawal, respectively. Slow elimination was associated with average Cmin and eGFR. Nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity, and thrombocytopenia occurred in 12.5%, 4.1%, and 31.5% of patients, respectively, without significant differences between concentrations. CONCLUSIONS Most older adult patients were underdosed, indicating a need for dose adjustment. Given the varied risk factors for suboptimal concentrations in different treatment stages, a one-size-fits-all regimen was ineffective. We recommend an initial dose of 400 mg at 12-h intervals for the first three days, with subsequent doses from days 4 to 14 adjusted based on creatinine and body weight; after day 14, a maintenance dose of 200 mg daily is advised.

Early Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Optimizes Teicoplanin Use in Febrile Neutropenic Patients with Hematological Malignancies. Adv Ther 2024:10.1007/s12325-024-02884-z. [PMID: 38743241 DOI: 10.1007/s12325-024-02884-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2024] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION A target trough concentration (Cmin) of teicoplanin ≥ 15-20 mg/L between the fourth and sixth day has been suggested for severe infections or management of febrile neutropenia (FN). Owing to no reports discussing the impact of early target attainment on treatment outcomes, this study aimed to evaluate the dose-Cmin relationship and clinical outcome and estimate the optimal early target Cmin for FN in patients with hematological malignancies. METHODS This single-center, prospective study enrolled patients with hematological malignancies who were treated with teicoplanin either as an empirical antibiotic for FN or as targeted treatment for Gram-positive bacteria. Blood samples were collected on day three (48 h) post-loading doses, day 5 (96 h), and day 8 (when applicable) and determined by ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography-triple quadruple mass spectrometry. A total of 117 samples from 47 patients with FN (27 men, 20 women) were consecutively analyzed. A two-tailed α value of 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS The mean Cmin values at 48 h, 96 h, and on day 8 were 23.4, 21.4, and 27.8 mg/L, respectively. The patients achieving Cmin ≥ 20 mg/L at 48 h had a higher likelihood of treatment success. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves were 0.71 for clinical efficacy and the cutoff value of Cmin at 48 h was 18.85 mg/L (95% confidence interval 0.55-0.87; P = 0.018). CONCLUSIONS The Cmin of teicoplanin after completion of loading doses could predict the treatment response, with a target concentration ≥ 18.85 mg/L.

Beyond One-Size-Fits-All: Tailoring Teicoplanin Regimens for Normal Renal Function Patients Using Population Pharmacokinetics and Monte Carlo Simulation. Pharmaceutics 2024; 16:499. [PMID: 38675160 PMCID: PMC11053983 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics16040499] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2024] [Revised: 03/31/2024] [Accepted: 04/03/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
In patients with normal renal function, significant teicoplanin dose adjustments are often necessary. This study aimed to develop a population pharmacokinetic (PK) model for teicoplanin in healthy adults and use it to recommend optimal dosage regimens for patients with normal renal function. PK samples were obtained from 12 subjects and analyzed using a population approach. The derived parameters informed Monte Carlo simulations for dosing recommendations. The PK profile was best described using a three-compartment model, in which the estimated glomerular filtration rate calculated via the CKD-EPI equation and adjusted for body surface area was identified as a significant covariate affecting total clearance. For pathogens with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 1 mg/L, a loading dose (LD) of 14 mg/kg administered every 12 h for four doses, followed by a maintenance dose (MD) of 16 mg/kg administered every 24 h, is recommended. These findings indicate the need for dosage adjustments, such as increasing the LD and MD or decreasing the dosing interval of MD in patients with normal renal function. Because of the long half-life of teicoplanin and the requirement for long-term administration, therapeutic drug monitoring at strategic intervals is important to avoid nephrotoxicity associated with elevated trough concentrations.

Abstract
PURPOSE In clinical practice, teicoplanin (TEIC) is typically administered at a trough concentration of 15-40 µg/mL. TEIC has a protein binding rate of approximately 90%, and its concentration rarely exceeds 40 µg/ml. Nevertheless, an increase in the free blood trough concentration may result in renal dysfunction. However, the relationship between the free blood trough concentration and the occurrence of renal dysfunction remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the impact of the predicted free blood concentration on the development of renal dysfunction. METHODS This retrospective study included patients who underwent TEIC and had at least one trough concentration measurement. The association between the frequency of renal dysfunction occurrence and the predicted free blood concentration was evaluated using the following equation: free TEIC concentration = total TEIC concentration/(1 + 1.78 × serum albumin level). RESULTS Of the 170 patients included in this study, 18% (31/170) developed renal dysfunction. The predicted free trough concentration was significantly higher in the renal dysfunction onset group than in the nononset group. However, the total trough concentration was not significantly associated with the development of renal dysfunction. The odds ratio for developing renal dysfunction was 4.5 (95% confidence interval, 1.9-10.5; P < 0.001) when the predicted free trough concentration was > 4.0 µg/mL. CONCLUSION Elevated free trough concentrations of TEIC were associated with an increased risk of renal dysfunction. Controlling the increase in the predicted free blood concentration may effectively prevent the development of renal dysfunction.

Abstract
AIMS This study aims to establish a population pharmacokinetic (PK) model of teicoplanin in Chinese adult patients to evaluate the dosing regimen in the label sheet and optimize it. METHODS Nonlinear mixed-effects modelling was used to estimate PK parameters. Monte Carlo simulations were used to evaluate the attainment of various dosing regimens in achieving the target trough concentrations in patients with normal or decreased renal function. RESULTS A total of 115 patients were enrolled in this retrospective study. Creatinine clearance (CrCL) and albumin (ALB) were identified as covariates on the clearance of teicoplanin. For the treatment of non-complicated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections in patients with normal renal function and serum ALB concentration, the recommended dosing regimen was 600 mg q12h with five administrations as the loading dose followed by 600 mg qd as the maintenance dose; for the treatment of serious and/or complicated MRSA infections, the recommended dosing regimen was 800 mg q12h with five administrations as the loading dose followed by 800 mg qd as the maintenance dose. It is worth noting that both the loading and maintenance doses ought to be modified based on the patient's renal function and serum ALB concentration. In addition, trough concentrations of teicoplanin were significantly increased every other week. CONCLUSIONS Both loading dosing and maintenance dosing regimens were recommended to be adjusted according to patient's renal function and serum ALB concentration. In addition, it is necessary to perform follow-up therapeutic drug monitoring of teicoplanin at least once every week.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Older individuals face an elevated risk of developing bacterial infections. The optimal use of antibacterial agents in this population is challenging because of age-related physiological alterations, changes in pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD), and the presence of multiple underlying diseases. Therefore, population pharmacokinetics (PPK) studies are of great importance for optimizing individual treatments and prompt identification of potential risk factors. AREA COVERED Our search involved keywords such as 'elderly,' 'old people,' and 'geriatric,' combined with 'population pharmacokinetics' and 'antibacterial agents.' This comprehensive search yielded 11 categories encompassing 28 antibacterial drugs, including vancomycin, ceftriaxone, meropenem, and linezolid. Out of 127 studies identified, 26 (20.5%) were associated with vancomycin, 14 (11%) with meropenem, and 14 (11%) with piperacillin. Other antibacterial agents were administered less frequently. EXPERT OPINION PPK studies are invaluable for elucidating the characteristics and relevant factors affecting the PK of antibacterial agents in the older population. Further research is warranted to develop and validate PPK models for antibacterial agents in this vulnerable population.

Population pharmacokinetics and model-based dosing optimization of teicoplanin in elderly critically ill patients with pneumonia. J Crit Care 2023; 78:154402. [PMID: 37634293 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcrc.2023.154402] [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: 11/29/2022] [Revised: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/17/2023] [Indexed: 08/29/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the population pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of teicoplanin in elderly critically ill patients with pneumonia for optimal dosages. METHODS Fifteen critically ill patients (9 men) ≥ 60 years received teicoplanin 6 mg/kg for three doses followed by standard maintenance doses (6 mg/kg q24h) with renal dosing adjustment. Serial plasma samples from all patients were analyzed simultaneously by population pharmacokinetic modeling using NONMEM. Probability of target attainment (PTA) was calculated through Monte Carlo simulations for various dosing regimens to achieve adequate systemic exposures. RESULTS The median (interquartile range, IQR) age, body mass index, and creatinine clearance (CrCl) was 75 (64-78) years, 22.5 (20.8-25.4) kg/m2, and 64 (47-106) mL/min, respectively. The median (IQR) peak and trough concentration was 46.5 (42.7-51.0) and 8.7 (7.2-9.5) mg/L. The population pharmacokinetic model showed slower clearance (CL) and larger peripheral volume of distribution (V2) in patients with reduced CrCl: CL (L/h) = 0.629 × (CrCl/64)0.656, V2 (L) = 55.7 × (CrCl/64)-0.665. Model-based simulations showed PTAs ≥85% only for higher-dose regimens (12 mg/kg) up to an MIC of 0.5 mg/L. CONCLUSIONS Standard teicoplanin dosages for pneumonia may provide inadequate systemic exposures in elderly critically ill patients. High-dose regimens should be considered as empiric therapy or for less susceptible pathogens.

Abstract
Purpose To develop a population pharmacokinetic model describing teicoplanin concentrations in patients hospitalized in intensive care unit (ICU) and to perform Monte Carlo simulations to provide detailed dosing regimens of teicoplanin. Methods This single-center, prospective, observational study was conducted on 151 patients in ICU with 347 plasma samples. The population pharmacokinetics model was established and various covariates were evaluated. The probability of target attainment (PTA) of various proposal dosing regimens was calculated by Monte Carlo simulations. Results The two-compartment model adequately described teicoplanin concentration-time data. The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) associated with systemic clearance (CL) was the only covariate included in the final model. The estimate of CL was 0.838 L/h, with the eGFR adjustment factor of 0.00823. The volume of the central compartment (Vc), inter-compartmental clearance (Q) and volumes of the peripheral compartments (Vp) were 14.4 L, 3.08 L/h and 51.6 L, respectively. The simulations revealed that the standard dosage regimen was only sufficient for the patients with severe renal dysfunction (eGFR ≤ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2) to attain target trough concentration (Cmin, PTA 52.8%). When eGFR > 30 mL/min/1.73 m2, increasing dose and the administration times of loading doses were the preferred options to achieve target Cmin based on the renal function and types of infection. Conclusion The most commonly used standard dosage regimen was insufficient for all ICU patients. Our study provided detailed dosing regimens of teicoplanin stratified by eGFR and types of infection for ICU patients.

Validating a novel three-times-weekly post-hemodialysis ceftriaxone regimen in infected Indigenous Australian patients-a population pharmacokinetic study. J Antimicrob Chemother 2023:dkad190. [PMID: 37367723 PMCID: PMC10393936 DOI: 10.1093/jac/dkad190] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To describe the total and unbound population pharmacokinetics of a 2 g three-times-weekly post-dialysis ceftriaxone regimen in Indigenous Australian patients requiring hemodialysis. METHODS A pharmacokinetic study was carried out in the dialysis unit of a remote Australian hospital. Adult Indigenous patients on intermittent hemodialysis (using a high-flux dialyzer) and treated with a 2 g three-times-weekly ceftriaxone regimen were recruited. Plasma samples were serially collected over two dosing intervals and assayed using validated methodology. Population pharmacokinetic analysis and Monte Carlo simulations were performed using Pmetrics in R. The probability of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic target attainment (unbound trough concentrations ≥1 mg/L) and toxicity [trough concentrations (total) ≥100 mg/L] were simulated for various dosing strategies. RESULTS Total and unbound concentrations were measured in 122 plasma samples collected from 16 patients (13 female) with median age 57 years. A two-compartment model including protein-binding adequately described the data, with serum bilirubin concentrations associated (inversely) with ceftriaxone clearance. The 2 g three-times-weekly regimen achieved 98% probability to maintain unbound ceftriaxone concentrations ≥1 mg/L for a serum bilirubin of 5 µmol/L. Incremental accumulation of ceftriaxone was observed in those with bilirubin concentrations >5 µmol/L. Three-times-weekly regimens were less probable to achieve toxic exposures compared with once-daily regimens. Ceftriaxone clearance was increased by >10-fold during dialysis. CONCLUSIONS A novel 2 g three-times-weekly post-dialysis ceftriaxone regimen can be recommended for a bacterial infection with an MIC ≤1 mg/L. A 1 g three-times-weekly post-dialysis regimen is recommended for those with serum bilirubin ≥10 µmol/L. Administration of ceftriaxone during dialysis is not recommended.

Abstract
As one of the efficient techniques for TDM, the population pharmacokinetic (popPK) model approach for dose individualization has been developed due to the rapidly growing innovative progress in computer technology and has recently been considered as a part of model-informed precision dosing (MIPD). Initial dose individualization and measurement followed by maximum a posteriori (MAP)-Bayesian prediction using a popPK model are the most classical and widely used approach among a class of MIPD strategies. MAP-Bayesian prediction offers the possibility of dose optimization based on measurement even before reaching a pharmacokinetically steady state, such as in an emergency, especially for infectious diseases requiring urgent antimicrobial treatment. As the pharmacokinetic processes in critically ill patients are affected and highly variable due to pathophysiological disturbances, the advantages offered by the popPK model approach make it highly recommended and required for effective and appropriate antimicrobial treatment. In this review, we focus on novel insights and beneficial aspects of the popPK model approach, especially in the treatment of infectious diseases with anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus agents represented by vancomycin, and discuss the recent advancements and prospects in TDM practice.

Abstract
Teicoplanin, a glycopeptide antimicrobial, is recommended for therapeutic drug monitoring, but it remains unclear how to target the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC). This simulation study purposed to demonstrate the potential of the Bayesian forecasting approach for the rapid achievement of the target AUC for teicoplanin. We generated concordant and discordant virtual populations against a Japanese population pharmacokinetic model. The predictive performance of the Bayesian posterior AUC in limited sampling on the first day against the reference AUC was evaluated as an acceptable target AUC ratio within the range of 0.8-1.2. In the concordant population, the probability for the maximum a priori or Bayesian posterior AUC on the first day (AUC0-24 ) was 61.3% or more than 77.0%, respectively. The Bayesian posterior AUC on the second day (AUC24-48 ) was more than 75.1%. In the discordant population, the probability for the maximum a priori or Bayesian posterior AUC0-24 was 15.5% or 11.7-80.7%, respectively. The probability for the maximum a priori or Bayesian posterior AUC24-48 was 23.4%, 30.2-82.1%. The AUC at steady-state (AUCSS ) was correlated with trough concentration at steady-state, with a coefficient of determination of 0.930; the coefficients on days 7 and 4 were 0.442 and 0.125, respectively. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that early sampling could improve the probability of AUC0-24 and AUC24-48 but did not adequately predict AUCSS . Further studies are necessary to apply early sampling-based model-informed precision dosing in the clinical settings.

Population pharmacokinetic analysis and dosing regimen optimization of teicoplanin in critically ill patients with sepsis. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1132367. [PMID: 37188268 PMCID: PMC10175687 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1132367] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/27/2022] [Accepted: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives: Teicoplanin has been extensively used in the treatment for infections caused by gram-positive bacteria including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). However, current teicoplanin treatment is challenging due to relatively low and variable concentrations under standard dosage regimens. This study aimed to investigate the population pharmacokinetics (PPK) characteristics of teicoplanin in adult sepsis patients and provide recommendations for optimal teicoplanin dosing regimens. Methods: A total of 249 serum concentration samples from 59 septic patients were prospectively collected in the intensive care unit (ICU). Teicoplanin concentrations were detected, and patients' clinical data were recorded. PPK analysis was performed using a non-linear, mixed-effect modeling approach. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to evaluate currently recommended dosing and other dosage regimens. The optimal dosing regimens were defined and compared by different pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic parameters, including trough concentration (Cmin), the ratio of 24-h area under the concentration-time curve to the minimum inhibitory concentration (AUC0-24/MIC), as well as the probability of target attainment (PTA) and the cumulative fraction of response (CFR) against MRSA. Results: A two-compartment model adequately described the data. The final model parameter estimates for clearance, central compartment volume of distribution, intercompartmental clearance and peripheral compartment volume were 1.03 L/h, 20.1 L, 3.12 L/h and 101 L, respectively. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was the only covariate that significantly affected teicoplanin clearance. Model-based simulations revealed that 3 or 5 loading doses of 12/15 mg/kg every 12 h followed by a maintenance dose of 12/15 mg/kg every 24 h-72 h for patients with different renal functions were required to achieve a target Cmin of 15 mg/L and a target AUC0-24/MIC of 610. For MRSA infections, PTAs and CFRs were not satisfactory for simulated regimens. Prolonging the dosing interval may be easier to achieve the target AUC0-24/MIC than reducing the unit dose for renal insufficient patients. Conclusion: A PPK model for teicoplanin in adult septic patients was successfully developed. Model-based simulations revealed that current standard doses may result in undertherapeutic Cmin and AUC, and a single dose of at least 12 mg/kg may be needed. AUC0-24/MIC should be preferred as the PK/PD indicator of teicoplanin, if AUC estimation is unavailable, in addition to routine detection of teicoplanin Cmin on Day 4, follow-up therapeutic drug monitoring at steady-state is recommended.

Abstract
Objectives: To develop a population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) model describing unbound teicoplanin concentrations in Chinese adult patients and perform Monte Carlo simulations to optimize the dosing regimens. Methods: The raw data for PopPK analysis in this study were collected from Chinese adult patients. A PopPK model of unbound teicoplanin was developed and Monte Carlo simulations were used to optimize the dosing regimens. The trough concentrations of unbound teicoplanin were targeted at 0.75 mg/L and 1.13 mg/L for most infection induced by Gram-positive bacteria and endocarditis or severe infections, respectively. Results: A total of 103 teicoplanin unbound concentrations were collected from 72 Chinese adult patients. A one-compartment pharmacokinetic model with first-order elimination was established. The typical values of clearance and the volume of distribution were 11.7 L/h and 811 L, respectively. The clearance and volume of distribution of unbound teicoplanin were positively correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and serum albumin concentrations, respectively. Dosing simulation results showed that standard dosing regimens were unable to meet the treatment needs of all patients, and the dosing regimen need optimize based on eGFR and serum albumin concentrations. The high eGFR and serum albumin concentration were associated with reduced probability of achieving target unbound trough concentrations. Conclusion: We successfully characterized the pharmacokinetics of unbound teicoplanin in Chinese adult patients. Importantly, we further highlight the importance of guiding dosing through unbound drugs. To achieve safe and effective treatment, the dosing regimens need to be adjusted according to eGFR and serum albumin concentrations.

Abstract
Guidelines for surgical prophylactic dosing of cefazolin in bariatric surgery vary in terms of recommended dose. This study aimed to describe the plasma and interstitial fluid (ISF) cefazolin pharmacokinetics in patients undergoing bariatric surgery and to determine an optimum dosing regimen. Abdominal subcutaneous ISF concentrations (measured using microdialysis) and plasma samples were collected at regular time points after administration of cefazolin 2 g intravenously. Total and unbound cefazolin concentrations were assayed and then modeled using Pmetrics. Monte Carlo dosing simulations (n = 5,000) were used to define cefazolin dosing regimens able to achieve a fractional target attainment (FTA) of >95% in the ISF suitable for the MIC for Staphylococcus aureus in isolates of ≤2 mg · L-1 and for a surgical duration of 4 h. Fourteen patients were included, with a mean (standard deviation [SD]) bodyweight of 148 (35) kg and body mass index (BMI) of 48 kg · m-2. Cefazolin protein binding ranged from 14 to 36% with variable penetration into ISF of 58% ± 56%. Cefazolin was best described as a four-compartment model including nonlinear protein binding. The mean central volume of distribution in the final model was 18.2 (SD 3.31) L, and the mean clearance was 32.4 (SD 20.2) L · h-1. A standard 2-g dose achieved an FTA of >95% for all patients with BMIs ranging from 36 to 69 kg · m-2. A 2-g prophylactic cefazolin dose achieves appropriate unbound plasma and ISF concentrations in obese and morbidly obese bariatric surgery patients.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to describe the total and unbound population pharmacokinetics of ceftriaxone in critically ill adult patients and to define optimized dosing regimens. Total and unbound ceftriaxone concentrations were obtained from two pharmacokinetic studies and from a therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) program at a tertiary hospital intensive care unit. Population pharmacokinetic analysis and Monte Carlo simulations were used to assess the probability of achieving a free trough concentration/MIC ratio of ≥1 using Pmetrics for R. A total of 474 samples (267 total and 207 unbound) were available from 36 patients. A two-compartment model describing ceftriaxone-albumin binding with both nonrenal and renal elimination incorporating creatinine clearance to explain the between-patient variability best described the data. An albumin concentration of ≤20 g/L decreased the probability of target attainment (PTA) by up to 20% across different dosing regimens and simulated creatinine clearances. A ceftriaxone dose of 1 g twice daily is likely therapeutic in patients with creatinine clearance of <100 mL/min infected with susceptible isolates (PTA, ~90%). Higher doses administered as a continuous infusion (4 g/day) are needed in patients with augmented renal clearance (creatinine clearance, >130 mL/min) who are infected by pathogens with a MIC of ≥0.5 mg/L. The ceftriaxone dose should be based on the patient's renal function and albumin concentration, as well as the isolate MIC. Hypoalbuminemia decreases the PTA in patients receiving intermittent dosing by up to 20%.

Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance is a major global health challenge. As few new efficacious antibiotics will become available in the near future, peptide antibiotics continue to be major therapeutic options for treating infections caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens. Rational use of antibiotics requires optimisation of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics for the treatment of different types of infections. Toxicodynamics must also be considered to improve the safety of antibiotic use and, where appropriate, to guide therapeutic drug monitoring. This review focuses on the pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics/toxicodynamics of peptide antibiotics against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative and Gram-positive pathogens. Optimising antibiotic exposure at the infection site is essential for improving their efficacy and minimising emergence of resistance.

Abstract
Background Despite the surge in use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in the adult intensive care unit, little guidance is available on the appropriate dosing of antimicrobials in this setting. Ceftriaxone is an antimicrobial with a high affinity to plasma protein, a property identified in the literature as susceptible to sequestration into extracorporeal circuits and hypothesised to require dosage adjustments in this setting. Objective The aim of this study was to describe the pharmacokinetics of ceftriaxone and identify the best dosing regimen for critically ill adult patients receiving ECMO. Methods Serial blood samples were taken from patients receiving both ECMO and ceftriaxone. Total and unbound drug concentrations were measured in plasma by chromatographic assay and analysed using a population pharmacokinetic approach with Pmetrics®. Dosing simulations were performed to identify the optimal dosing strategy: 60 and 100% of time with free (unbound) drug concentration exceeding the minimum inhibitory concentration (fT>MIC). Results In total, 14 patients were enrolled, of which three were receiving renal replacement therapy (RRT). Total and unbound ceftriaxone was best described in a two-compartment model with total body weight, serum albumin concentrations, creatinine clearance (CrCL), and the presence of RRT included as significant predictors of pharmacokinetics. Patients not on RRT generated a mean renal clearance of 0.90 L/h, non-renal clearance of 0.33 L/h, and central volume of distribution of 7.94 L. Patients on RRT exhibited a mean total clearance of 1.18 L/h. ECMO variables were not significant predictors of ceftriaxone pharmacokinetics. Steady-state dosing simulations found that dosages of 1 g every 12 h and 2 g every 24 h achieved >90% probabilities of target attainment in patients with CrCL of 0 mL/min with RRT and 30 and 100 mL/min and various serum albumin concentrations (17 and 26 g/L). Conclusions Dosing recommendations for critically ill adult patients not on ECMO appear to be sufficient for patients on ECMO. Patients exhibiting augmented renal clearance (> 130 mL/min) or treatment of less susceptible pathogens may require higher doses, which requires further investigation.

Clinical Practice Guidelines for Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Vancomycin in the Framework of Model-Informed Precision Dosing: A Consensus Review by the Japanese Society of Chemotherapy and the Japanese Society of Therapeutic Drug Monitoring. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14030489. [PMID: 35335866 PMCID: PMC8955715 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14030489] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 19.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2022] [Revised: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 02/17/2022] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: To promote model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) for vancomycin (VCM), we developed statements for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). Methods: Ten clinical questions were selected. The committee conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis as well as clinical studies to establish recommendations for area under the concentration-time curve (AUC)-guided dosing. Results: AUC-guided dosing tended to more strongly decrease the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) than trough-guided dosing, and a lower risk of treatment failure was demonstrated for higher AUC/minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ratios (cut-off of 400). Higher AUCs (cut-off of 600 μg·h/mL) significantly increased the risk of AKI. Although Bayesian estimation with two-point measurement was recommended, the trough concentration alone may be used in patients with mild infections in whom VCM was administered with q12h. To increase the concentration on days 1–2, the routine use of a loading dose is required. TDM on day 2 before steady state is reached should be considered to optimize the dose in patients with serious infections and a high risk of AKI. Conclusions: These VCM TDM guidelines provide recommendations based on MIPD to increase treatment response while preventing adverse effects.

Abstract
Background Owing to its low risk of adverse effects, teicoplanin has been extensively used in patients with infections caused by MRSA. To promote the better management of patients receiving teicoplanin, we have updated the guidelines for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). Methods The guidelines were developed by a committee following the methodology handbook published by the Japanese Medical Information Distribution Service. Nine clinical questions were selected. The committee conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to establish evidence-based recommendations for the target trough concentration (Cmin). An initial electronic database search returned 515 articles, and 97 articles qualified for a full review. Four and five studies were included for the efficacy evaluation of cut-off Cmin values of 15 and 20 mg/L, respectively. Results Compared with Cmin < 15 mg/L, a target Cmin value of 15–30 mg/L resulted in increased clinical efficacy in patients with non-complicated MRSA infections (OR = 2.68; 95% CI = 1.14–6.32) without an increase in adverse effects. Although there was insufficient evidence, target Cmin values of 20–40 mg/L were suggested in patients with complicated or serious MRSA infections. A 3 day loading regimen followed by maintenance treatment according to renal function was recommended to achieve the target trough concentrations. Because of the prolonged half-life of teicoplanin, measurement of the Cmin value on Day 4 before reaching steady state was recommended. Conclusions The new guideline recommendations indicate the target Cmin value for TDM and the dosage regimen to achieve this concentration and suggest practices for specific subpopulations.

Abstract
AIMS Augmented renal clearance (ARC), which is commonly defined as increased renal clearance above 130 ml/min/1.73 m2, is a common phenomenon among critically ill patients. The increased elimination rate of drugs through the kidneys in patients with ARC can increase the risk of treatment failure due to the exposure to subtherapeutic serum concentrations of medications and affect the optimal management of infections, length of hospital stay, and outcomes. The main goal of this review article is to summarize the recommendations for appropriate dosing of antibiotics in patients with ARC. METHODS This article is a narrative review of the articles that evaluated different dosing regimens of antibiotics in patients with ARC. The keywords "Augmented Renal Clearance," "Critically ill patients," "Drug dosing," "Serum concentration," "Beta-lactams," "Meropenem," "Imipenem," "Glycopeptide," "Vancomycin," "Teicoplanin," "Linezolid," "Colistin," "Aminoglycosides," "Amikacin," "Gentamycin," "Fluoroquinolones," "Ciprofloxacin," and "Levofloxacin" were searched in Scopus, Medline, PubMed, and Google Scholar databases, and pediatric, nonhuman, and non-English studies were excluded. RESULTS PK properties of antibiotics including lipophilicity or hydrophilicity, protein binding, the volume of distribution, and elimination rate that affect drug concentration should be considered along with PD parameters for drug dosing in critically ill patients with ARC. CONCLUSION This review recommends a dosing protocol for some antibiotics to help the appropriate dosing of antibiotics in ARC and decrease the risk of subtherapeutic exposure that may be observed while receiving conventional dosing regimens in critically ill patients with ARC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Because of its lower risk of renal toxicity than vancomycin, teicoplanin is the preferred treatment for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infection in patients undergoing continuous venovenous haemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) in whom renal function is expected to recover. The dosing regimen for achieving a trough concentration (Cmin) of ≥20 μg/mL remains unclear in patients on CVVHDF using the low flow rate adopted in Japan. METHODS The study was conducted in patients undergoing CVVHDF with a flow rate of <20 mg/kg/h who were treated with teicoplanin. We adopted three loading dose regimens for the initial 3 days: the conventional regimen, a high-dose regimen (four doses of 10 mg/kg), and an enhanced regimen (four doses of 12 mg/kg). The initial Cmin was obtained at 72 h after the first dose. RESULTS Overall, 60 patients were eligible for study inclusion. The proportion of patients achieving the Cmin target was significantly higher for the enhanced regimen than for the high-dose regimen (52.9% versus 8.3%, p = 0.003). In multivariate analysis, the enhanced regimen (odds ratio [OR] = 39.93, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 5.03-317.17) and hypoalbuminaemia (OR = 0.04, 95% CI = 0.01-0.44) were independent predictors of the achievement of Cmin ≥ 20 μg/mL. CONCLUSIONS An enhanced teicoplanin regimen was proposed to treat complicated or invasive infections by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in patients receiving CVVHDF even with a low flow rate.

Abstract
The pharmacokinetics of teicoplanin differs in children as compared with adults, and especially in renally impaired pediatric patients. Inappropriate empirical antibacterial therapy may lead to treatment-related antibacterial resistance and increased toxicity, making adjustment of the dosage regimen essential. In the present study, physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models were developed to define the appropriate dosage regimen for pediatric patients with differing renal function. Our PBPK models accurately predicted teicoplanin exposures in both adult and pediatric subjects after single and multiple intravenous infusions, with a <1.36-fold error between predicted and observed data, and all observed data were within minimal and maximal data of the corresponding population simulation. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve was predicted to increase 1.25-fold, 1.95-fold, and 2.82-fold in pediatric patients with mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment, respectively, relative to that of healthy children. Subsequently, the results of Monte Carlo simulations indicated that the recommended dosing of 12, 9.5, 6, and 4 mg/kg at 12-hour intervals would be appropriate in pediatric patients with normal renal function and in those with mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment, respectively, at a susceptible minimum inhibitory concentration <2 mg/L. In conclusion, our PBPK model with an incorporated Monte Carlo simulation can provide improved guidance on dosing in pediatric patients with differing renal function and provide a basis for precision therapy with teicoplanin.

Abstract
Albumin, the most abundant protein in plasma, possesses some inherent beneficial structural and physiological characteristics that make it suitable for use as a drug delivery agent, such as an extraordinary drug-binding capacity and long blood retention, with a high biocompatibility. The use of these characteristics as a nanoparticle drug delivery system (DDS) offers several advantages, including a longer circulation time, lower toxicity, and more significant drug loading. To date, many innovative liposome preparations have been developed in which albumin is involved as a DDS. These novel albumin-containing liposome preparations show superior deliverability for genes, hydrophilic/hydrophobic substances and proteins/peptides to the targeting area compared to original liposomes by virtue of their high biocompatibility, stability, effective loading content, and the capacity for targeting. This review summarizes the current status of albumin applications in liposome-based DDS, focusing on albumin-coated liposomes and albumin-encapsulated liposomes as a DDS carrier for potential medical applications.

Teicoplanin physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling offers a quantitative assessment of a theoretical influence of serum albumin and renal function on its disposition.

Abstract
PURPOSE Variability in teicoplanin pharmacokinetics has been explained by multiple factors such as body weight, renal function, and serum albumin level. To improve mechanistic understanding of the causes of variability, a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model can be used as a systematic platform. In this study, a PBPK model of teicoplanin was developed to quantitatively assess the effects of physiological changes due to disease status using virtual populations. METHODS Predictive performance of the models was evaluated by comparing simulated and observed concentration-time profiles of teicoplanin. Subsequently, sensitivity analyses were conducted to identify potential factors contributing to individual differences in teicoplanin PK. RESULTS The developed PBPK model generated concentration-time profiles that were comparable to clinical observations in healthy adults, including Caucasians and Japanese, and after single-dose and multiple-dose administration. The predicted PK parameters (i.e., Cmax, AUC, clearance) were within a two-fold range of the observed data in patients with renal impairments as well as healthy adults. Changes in total and unbound teicoplanin concentrations at 72 h, after various dosing regimens (tested 4-14 mg/kg q12h for three doses as a loading dose and then 4-14 mg/kg daily as a maintenance dose), were sensitive to renal function and serum albumin concentrations. CONCLUSION The PBPK model of teicoplanin provides mechanistic insight into the factors altering its disposition and allows assessments of the theoretical and quantitative impact of individual changes in physiological parameters on its PK even when an actual assessment with adequate sample sizes of patients is challenging.

Abstract
Objectives: The pharmacokinetics (PK) of teicoplanin differs in children compared with adults. Our aim was to determine the PK of teicoplanin in an Asian pediatric population and to optimize dosage regimens. Methods: This was a retrospective PK study and all the data were collected from hospitalized children. We developed a population PK model using sparse data, and Monte Carlo simulation was used to assess the ability of standard teicoplanin regimen and other different dosage regimens. The optimal dosing regimens were defined as achieving the target trough concentration (C min) of 10 mg/L and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD, [AUC24/MIC]) of 125 for moderate infection. For severe infection, the optimal dosing regimens were defined as achieving the target 15 mg/L and AUC24/MIC of 345. Results: 159 children were included and 1.5 samples/children on average were provided. Estimated clearance of teicoplanin was 0.694 L/h (0.784/L/h/70 kg) and volume of distribution was 1.39 L. Teicoplanin standard loading dose was adequate for moderate infection, while 13 mg/kg was needed for severer infection. With standard maintenance doses, both patients with moderate and severe infection failed to achieve the target C min. 12 and 16 mg/kg/day were required to achieve a C min ≥ 10 and 15 mg/L, respectively. However, standard maintenance dose was adequate to achieve AUC24/MIC ≥ 125 for moderate infection, and 12 mg/kg/day was needed to achieve AUC24/MIC ≥ 345 for severe infection. Lower weight and serum creatinine were associated with higher dose. Conclusion: Optimal doses based on the target C min were higher than that based on the PK/PD target. To achieve the C min and PK/PD targets simultaneously, a standard loading dose was adequate for moderate infection based on simulation, while dosing higher than standard doses were required in other situation. Further clinical studies with rich sampling from children is required to confirm our findings.

[PMID: 33258328 PMCID: PMC7707924 DOI: 10.3346/jkms.2020.35.e376] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2020] [Accepted: 09/14/2020] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Teicoplanin is used to treat serious gram-positive infections. Optimal teicoplanin trough levels are considered to be ≥ 10 μg/mL. Despite its wide use in various clinical settings, data on teicoplanin trough level in pediatric patients are limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic drug level monitoring of teicoplanin in Korean pediatric patients, including those with impaired renal function. METHODS A retrospective study was performed in pediatric patients (age ≤ 18 years old) who received teicoplanin from September 2014 to April 2018. The regimen included a loading dose of 10 mg/kg/dose at 12 hours' interval three times in a row, and a maintenance dose of 10 mg/kg/dose commenced at 24 hours of interval after the loading dose, with a maximum of 400 mg/dose, respectively. The first therapeutic drug levels were measured. Distribution and characteristics of trough levels in patients with decreased renal function and those with bacteremia were also assessed. RESULTS A total of 187 trough levels were collected from 143 patients. Hematologic and oncologic diseases were the most common underlying diseases (83.2%, n = 119). One hundred eighty trough levels were first measured, and their median value was 16.2 μg/mL (range, 2.3-100 μg/mL) and the median interval between initial teicoplanin injection and 1st trough level was 96.5 hours (range 47.6-179.3 hours). Lower steady-state levels were observed in younger age group (median, 13.5 vs. 18.0 μg/mL, P = 0.038). Median trough levels were higher in patients with decreased renal functions (P < 0.001). In addition, among eight with gram-positive bacteremia, seven of them had a favorable outcome. CONCLUSION This study provides additive information on trough level monitoring of teicoplanin in children with impaired renal function and treatment effect in patients with gram-positive bacteremia. Careful monitoring for steady state trough levels of teicoplanin is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Teicoplanin is a highly protein-bound antibiotic, increasingly used to treat serious Gram-positive infections in critically ill children. Maturational and pathophysiological intensive care unit-related changes often lead to altered pharmacokinetics. In this study, the objectives were to develop a pediatric population-pharmacokinetic model of unbound and total teicoplanin concentrations, to investigate the impact of plasma albumin levels and renal function on teicoplanin pharmacokinetics, and to evaluate the efficacy of the current weight-based dosing regimen. METHODS An observational pharmacokinetic study was performed and blood samples were collected for quantification of unbound and total concentrations of teicoplanin after the first dose and in assumed steady-state conditions. A population-pharmacokinetic analysis was conducted using a standard sequential approach and Monte Carlo simulations were performed for a probability of target attainment analysis using previously published pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic targets. RESULTS A two-compartment model with allometric scaling of pharmacokinetic parameters and non-linear plasma protein binding best described the data. Neither the inclusion of albumin nor the renal function significantly improved the model and no other covariates were supported for inclusion in the final model. The probability of target attainment analysis showed that the standard dosing regimen does not satisfactory attain the majority of the proposed targets. CONCLUSIONS We successfully characterized the pharmacokinetics of unbound and total teicoplanin in critically ill pediatric patients. The highly variable unbound fraction of teicoplanin could not be predicted using albumin levels, which may support the use of therapeutic drug monitoring of unbound concentrations. Poor target attainment was shown for the most commonly used dosing regimen, regardless of the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic target evaluated.

Clinical efficacy and safety in patients treated with teicoplanin with a target trough concentration of 20 μg/mL using a regimen of 12 mg/kg for five doses within the initial 3 days. BMC Pharmacol Toxicol 2020; 21:50. [PMID: 32641110 PMCID: PMC7341468 DOI: 10.1186/s40360-020-00424-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2020] [Accepted: 06/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background A trough concentration (Cmin) ≥20 μg/mL of teicoplanin is recommended for the treatment of serious methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections. However, sufficient clinical evidence to support the efficacy of this target Cmin has not been obtained. Even though the recommended high Cmin of teicoplanin was associated with better clinical outcome, reaching the target concentration is challenging. Methods Pharmacokinetics and adverse events were evaluated in all eligible patients. For clinical efficacy, patients who had bacteremia/complicated MRSA infections were analyzed. The primary endpoint for clinical efficacy was an early clinical response at 72–96 h after the start of therapy. Five dosed of 12 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg was administered as an enhanced or conventional high loading dose regimen, respectively. The Cmin was obtained at 72 h after the first dose. Results Overall, 512 patients were eligible, and 76 patients were analyzed for treatment efficacy. The proportion of patients achieving the target Cmin range (20–40 μg/mL) by the enhanced regimen was significantly higher than for the conventional regimen (75.2% versus 41.0%, p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, Cmin ≥ 20 μg/mL was an independent factor for an early clinical response (odds ratio 3.95, 95% confidence interval 1.25–12.53). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of adverse events between patients who did or did not achieve a Cmin ≥ 20 μg/mL. Conclusion A target Cmin ≥ 20 μg/mL might improve early clinical responses during the treatment of difficult MRSA infections using 12 mg/kg teicoplanin for five doses within the initial 3 days.

Abstract
PURPOSE Clearance via renal replacement therapy (RRT) can significantly alter the pharmacokinetic profile of drugs. The aim of this study was (i) to improve the use of clinical trial data and (ii) to provide a model that allows quantification of all aspects of drug elimination via RRT including adsorption to dialysis membranes and/or degradation of the drug in the dialysate. METHODS An integrated dialysis pharmacometric (IDP) model was developed to simultaneously incorporate all available RRT information. The sensitivity, accuracy and precision of the IDP model was compared to conventional approaches in clinical trial simulations and applied to clinical datasets of teicoplanin and doripenem. RESULTS The IDP model was more accurate, precise and sensitive than conventional plasma-concentration-based approaches when estimating the clearanceRRT (relative bias <1%). In contrast to conventional approaches, adsorption and degradation were quantifiable using the IDP model (relative bias: -1.1% and - 1.9%, respectively). Applied to clinical data, clearanceRRT, drug degradation (effluent-half-lifedoripenem: 13.5 h-1) and adsorption (polysulphone adsorption capacityteicoplanin: 31.2 mg) were assessed. CONCLUSION The IDP model allows accurate, precise and sensitive characterization of clearanceRRT, adsorption and degradation. Successful quantification of all aspects of clearanceRRT in clinical data demonstrated the benefit of the IDP model as compared to conventional approaches.

Abstract
Teicoplanin is an antibiotic agent used for the treatment of Gram-positive infections. The clinical benefit of teicoplanin is associated with its blood concentrations, but the optimal dosing regimen is not yet known. To explore the optimal individual dosing regimen, we performed a population pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) analysis targeting a large-scale population, including patients with a wide range of ages, body weights, and renal functions. The PK of teicoplanin was described with a 2-compartment model, and the PD of C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations was described with a turnover maximum inhibition model. The elimination half-life of teicoplanin calculated from the final estimated parameters was 169 hours, and renal function was a significant covariate of teicoplanin clearance. The teicoplanin concentration producing 50% of the maximum inhibition of CRP production was estimated to be 2.66 mg/L. The minimum concentration of teicoplanin in patients with higher loading doses (15 mg/kg) reached the target range (15-30 mg/L) with a probability of >50% in the dosing simulation. We described the influence of body size, body composition, and renal function on the PK of teicoplanin. The population PKPD model of teicoplanin and CRP in this study should provide useful information for development of a dosing strategy including the sequential clinical benefit of teicoplanin.
