Pharmacokinetics of standard versus high-dose rifampin for tuberculosis preventive treatment: A sub-study of the 2R 2 randomized controlled trial. Int J Antimicrob Agents 2024; 64:107197. [PMID: 38750674 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2024.107197] [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: 11/23/2023] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/09/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pharmacokinetic data of rifampin, when used for tuberculosis preventive treatment (TPT) are not available. We aimed to describe the pharmacokinetics of rifampin used for TPT, at standard and higher doses, and to assess predictors of rifampin exposure. METHODS A pharmacokinetic sub-study was performed in Bandung, Indonesia among participants in the 2R2 randomized trial, which compared TPT regimens of 2 months of high-dose rifampin at 20 mg/kg/day (2R20) and 30 mg/kg/day (2R30), with 4 months of standard-dose rifampin at 10 mg/kg/day (4R10) in adolescents and adults. Intensive pharmacokinetic sampling was performed after 2-8 weeks of treatment. Pharmacokinetic parameters were assessed non-compartmentally. Total exposure (AUC0-24) and peak concentration (Cmax) between arms were compared using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's post-hoc tests. Multivariable linear regression analyses were used to assess predictors of AUC0-24 and Cmax. RESULTS We enrolled 51 participants in this study. In the 4R10, 2R20, and 2R30 arms, the geometric mean AUC0-24 was 68.0, 186.8, and 289.9 h⋅mg/L, and Cmax was 18.4, 36.7, and 54.4 mg/L, respectively; high interindividual variabilities were observed. Compared with the 4R10 arm, AUC0-24 and Cmax were significantly higher in the 2R20 and 2R30 arms (P < 0.001). Drug doses, body weight, and female sex were predictors of higher rifampin AUC0-24 and Cmax (P < 0.05). AUC0-24 and Cmax values were much higher than those previously reported in persons with TB disease. CONCLUSIONS Doubling and tripling the rifampin dose led to three- and four-fold higher exposure compared to standard dose. Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modelling and simulations are warranted to support trials of shortening the duration of TPT regimens with high-dose rifampin.

Fage D, Aalhoul F, Cotton F. Protein binding investigation of first-line and second-line antituberculosis drugs. Int J Antimicrob Agents 2023; 62:106999. [PMID: 37838149 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2023.106999] [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: 03/22/2023] [Revised: 07/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/16/2023]
Abstract
Data on protein binding are incomplete for first-line antituberculosis drugs, and lacking for second-line antituberculosis drugs that are used extensively for multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis (levofloxacin, linezolid and moxifloxacin). Thus, the main purposes of this study were to investigate: (i) the relationship between carrier protein concentration and drug binding; and (ii) the feasibility of predicting free drug concentration using in-vitro and in-vivo results. In-vitro experiments were performed on spiked plasma mimicking real-case samples (drug combinations from clinical practice). Median in-vivo protein binding was 1.5% for ethambutol, 9.7% for isoniazid, 0.7% for pyrazinamide and 88.2% for rifampicin; and median in-vitro protein binding was 26.2% for levofloxacin, 12.8% for linezolid and 46.3% for moxifloxacin. Albumin concentration (<30 g/L) had a moderate impact on moxifloxacin binding and a strong impact on levofloxacin, linezolid and rifampicin binding. Determination of the free drug concentration seems to be of little value for ethambutol, isoniazid, moxifloxacin and pyrazinamide; limited value for linezolid because of its low binding; and major value for rifampicin in hypoalbuminaemic patients with tuberculosis, and levofloxacin because total concentration was an inaccurate reflection of free concentration. The free concentration predicted by the mathematical model was suitable for levofloxacin and linezolid, whereas the real free concentration should be measured for rifampicin. Further investigations should be carried out to investigate the benefit of using free concentration for levofloxacin, linezolid and rifampicin, particularly in the critical period of active tuberculosis associated with hypoalbuminaemia.

Mechanistic Static Model based Prediction of Transporter Substrate Drug-Drug Interactions Utilizing Atorvastatin and Rifampicin. Pharm Res 2023; 40:3025-3042.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE An in vitro relative activity factor (RAF) technique combined with mechanistic static modeling was examined to predict drug-drug interaction (DDI) magnitude and analyze contributions of different clearance pathways in complex DDIs involving transporter substrates. Atorvastatin and rifampicin were used as a model substrate and inhibitor pair. METHODS In vitro studies were conducted with transfected HEK293 cells, hepatocytes and human liver microsomes. Prediction success was defined as predictions being within twofold of observations. RESULTS The RAF method successfully translated atorvastatin uptake from transfected cells to hepatocytes, demonstrating its ability to quantify transporter contributions to uptake. Successful translation of atorvastatin's in vivo intrinsic hepatic clearance (CLint,h,in vivo) from hepatocytes to liver was only achieved through consideration of albumin facilitated uptake or through application of empirical scaling factors to transporter-mediated clearances. Transporter protein expression differences between hepatocytes and liver did not affect CLint,h,in vivo predictions. By integrating cis and trans inhibition of OATP1B1/OATP1B3, atorvastatin-rifampicin (single dose) DDI magnitude could be accurately predicted (predictions within 0.77-1.0 fold of observations). Simulations indicated that concurrent inhibition of both OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 caused approximately 80% of atorvastatin exposure increases (AUCR) in the presence of rifampicin. Inhibiting biliary elimination, hepatic metabolism, OATP2B1, NTCP, and basolateral efflux are predicted to have minimal to no effect on AUCR. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates the effective application of a RAF-based translation method combined with mechanistic static modeling for transporter substrate DDI predictions and subsequent mechanistic interpretation.

Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2023; 67:e0087423. [PMID: 37877693 PMCID: PMC10649009 DOI: 10.1128/aac.00874-23] [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: 07/07/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Rifampicin is recommended for the treatment of Mycobacterium avium complex pulmonary disease alongside azithromycin and ethambutol. We evaluated the azithromycin-ethambutol backbone with and without rifampicin in an intracellular hollow fiber model and performed RNA sequencing to study the differences in adaptation. In an in vitro hollow fiber experiment, we simulated epithelial lining fluid pharmacokinetic profiles of the recommended 3-drug (rifampicin, ethambutol, and azithromycin) or a 2-drug (ethambutol and azithromycin) treatment. THP-1 cells infected with M. avium ATCC700898 were exposed to these regimens for 21 days. We determined intra- and extra-cellular bacterial load- and THP-1 cell densities on days 0, 3, 7, 14, and 21, alongside RNA sequencing. The emergence of macrolide resistance was studied by inoculating intra- and extra-cellular fractions of azithromycin-containing Middlebrook 7H10 agar plates. Complete pharmacokinetic profiles were determined at days 0 and 21. Both therapies maintained stasis of both intra- and extra-cellular bacterial populations for 3 days, whilst regrowth coinciding with the emergence of a macrolide-resistant subpopulation was seen after 7 days. THP-1 cell density remained static. Similar transcriptional profiles were observed for both therapies that were minimally influenced by exposure duration. Transcriptional response was slightly larger during 2-drug treatment. Rifampicin did not add to the antimycobacterial effect to the 2-drug therapy or suppression of emergence resistance. RNA transcription was not greatly altered by the addition of rifampicin, which may be due to strong transcriptional influence of azithromycin and host cells. This questions the role of rifampicin in the currently recommended therapy. These findings should be confirmed in clinical trials.

Developmental Pharmacokinetics of Antibiotics Used in Neonatal ICU: Focus on Preterm Infants. Biomedicines 2023; 11:biomedicines11030940.

Abstract
Neonatal Infections are among the most common reasons for admission to the intensive care unit. Neonatal sepsis (NS) significantly contributes to mortality rates. Empiric antibiotic therapy of NS recommended by current international guidelines includes benzylpenicillin, ampicillin/amoxicillin, and aminoglycosides (gentamicin). The rise of antibacterial resistance precipitates the growth of the use of antibiotics of the Watch (second, third, and fourth generations of cephalosporines, carbapenems, macrolides, glycopeptides, rifamycins, fluoroquinolones) and Reserve groups (fifth generation of cephalosporines, oxazolidinones, lipoglycopeptides, fosfomycin), which are associated with a less clinical experience and higher risks of toxic reactions. A proper dosing regimen is essential for effective and safe antibiotic therapy, but its choice in neonates is complicated with high variability in the maturation of organ systems affecting drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Changes in antibiotic pharmacokinetic parameters result in altered efficacy and safety. Population pharmacokinetics can help to prognosis outcomes of antibiotic therapy, but it should be considered that the neonatal population is heterogeneous, and this heterogeneity is mainly determined by gestational and postnatal age. Preterm neonates are common in clinical practice, and due to the different physiology compared to the full terms, constitute a specific neonatal subpopulation. The objective of this review is to summarize the evidence about the developmental changes (specific for preterm and full-term infants, separately) of pharmacokinetic parameters of antibiotics used in neonatal intensive care units.

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.

Plasma Pharmacokinetics of High-Dose Oral versus Intravenous Rifampicin in Patients with Tuberculous Meningitis: a Randomized Controlled Trial. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2021; 65:e0014021. [PMID: 33972248 PMCID: PMC7611291 DOI: 10.1128/aac.00140-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Higher doses of intravenous rifampicin may improve outcomes in tuberculous meningitis but are impractical in high-burden settings. We hypothesized that plasma rifampicin exposures would be similar between oral dosing of 35 mg/kg of body weight and intravenous dosing of 20 mg/kg, which has been proposed for efficacy trials in tuberculous meningitis. We performed a randomized parallel-group pharmacokinetic study nested within a clinical trial of intensified antimicrobial therapy for tuberculous meningitis. HIV-positive participants with tuberculous meningitis were recruited from South African hospitals and randomized to one of three rifampicin dosing groups: standard (oral 10 mg/kg), high dose (oral 35 mg/kg), and intravenous (20 mg/kg). Intensive pharmacokinetic sampling was done on day 3. Data were described using noncompartmental analysis, and exposures were compared by geometric mean ratios (GMRs). Forty-six participants underwent pharmacokinetic sampling (standard dose, n = 17; high-dose oral, n = 15; intravenous, n = 14). The median CD4 count was 130 cells/mm3 (interquartile range [IQR], 66 to 253 cells/mm3). The rifampicin geometric mean area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h (AUC0-24) values were 42.9 μg · h/ml (95% confidence interval [CI], 24.5 to 75.0 μg · h/ml) for the standard dose, 295.2 μg · h/ml (95% CI, 189.9 to 458.8 μg · h/ml) for the high oral dose, and 206.5 μg · h/ml (95% CI, 154.6 to 275.8 μg · h/ml) for intravenous administration. The rifampicin AUC0-24 GMR was 1.44 (90% CI, 0.84 to 2.21) and the maximal concentration of drug in serum (Cmax) GMR was 0.89 (90% CI, 0.63 to 1.23) for high-dose oral administration with respect to intravenous dosing. The plasma rifampicin AUC0-24 was higher after an oral 35-mg/kg dose than with intravenous administration at a 20-mg/kg dose over the first few days of tuberculosis (TB) treatment. The findings support oral rifampicin dosing in future tuberculous meningitis trials.

Increased bactericidal activity but dose-limiting intolerability at 50 mg·kg -1 rifampicin. Eur Respir J 2021; 58:13993003.00955-2020. [PMID: 33542056 PMCID: PMC8411896 DOI: 10.1183/13993003.00955-2020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2020] [Accepted: 12/07/2020] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
Background Accumulating data indicate that higher rifampicin doses are more effective and shorten tuberculosis (TB) treatment duration. This study evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and 7- and 14-day early bactericidal activity (EBA) of increasing doses of rifampicin. Here we report the results of the final cohorts of PanACEA HIGHRIF1, a dose escalation study in treatment-naive adult smear-positive patients with TB. Methods Patients received, in consecutive cohorts, 40 or 50 mg·kg−1 rifampicin once daily in monotherapy (day 1–7), supplemented with standard dose isoniazid, pyrazinamide and ethambutol between days 8 and 14. Results In the 40 mg·kg−1 cohort (n=15), 13 patients experienced a total of 36 adverse events during monotherapy, resulting in one treatment discontinuation. In the 50 mg·kg−1 cohort (n=17), all patients experienced adverse events during monotherapy, 93 in total; 11 patients withdrew or stopped study medication. Adverse events were mostly mild/moderate and tolerability rather than safety related, i.e. gastrointestinal disorders, pruritis, hyperbilirubinaemia and jaundice. There was a more than proportional increase in the rifampicin geometric mean area under the plasma concentration–time curve from time 0 to 12 h (AUC0–24 h) for 50 mg·kg−1 compared with 40 mg·kg−1; 571 (range 320–995) versus 387 (range 201–847) mg·L−1·h, while peak exposures saw proportional increases. Protein-unbound exposure after 50 mg·kg−1 (11% (range 8–17%)) was comparable with lower rifampicin doses. Rifampicin exposures and bilirubin concentrations were correlated (Spearman's ρ=0.670 on day 3, p<0.001). EBA increased considerably with dose, with the highest seen after 50 mg·kg−1: 14-day EBA −0.427 (95% CI −0.500– −0.355) log10CFU·mL−1·day−1. Conclusion Although associated with an increased bactericidal effect, the 50 mg·kg−1 dose was not well tolerated. Rifampicin at 40 mg·kg−1 was well tolerated and therefore selected for evaluation in a phase IIc treatment-shortening trial. While bactericidal activity continues to increase with dose, for the first time we identified dose-limiting intolerability for rifampicin dosed at 50 mg·kg−1; 40 mg·kg−1 seems the optimal tolerable dose for evaluation in TB treatment-shortening trialshttps://bit.ly/37dUIuB

A Systematic Review of Studies Reporting Antibiotic Pharmacokinetic Data in the Cerebrospinal Fluid of Critically Ill Patients with Uninflamed Meninges. Antimicrob Agents Chemother 2020; 65:AAC.01998-20. [PMID: 33077649 DOI: 10.1128/aac.01998-20] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2020] [Accepted: 10/05/2020] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Ventriculostomy-associated infections in critically ill patients remain therapeutically challenging because of drug- and disease-related factors that contribute to suboptimal antibiotic concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid. Optimal antibiotic dosing for the treatment and prevention of such infections should be based on robust and contextually specific pharmacokinetic data. The objects of this study were to describe and critically appraise studies with reported antibiotic concentrations or pharmacokinetic data in cerebrospinal fluid of critically ill patients without meningeal inflammation. We systematically reviewed the literature to identify published reports and studies describing antibiotic concentrations, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics in cerebrospinal fluid of critically ill patients with uninflamed meninges. Fifty-eight articles met the inclusion criteria. There was significant heterogeneity in methodologies and results. When available, antibiotic pharmacokinetic parameters displayed large intersubject variability. Intraventricular dosing achieved substantially higher antibiotic concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid than did intravenous doses. Few studies conducted a robust pharmacokinetic analysis and described relevant clinical pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic indices and exposure targets in cerebrospinal fluid. Robust and clinically relevant antibiotic pharmacokinetic data describing antibiotic disposition in cerebrospinal fluid are necessary. Such studies should use a standardized approach to accurately describe pharmacokinetic variability. These data should ideally be tied to clinical outcomes whereby therapeutic targets in the cerebrospinal fluid can be better defined. Altered dosing strategies, in conjunction with exploring the utility of therapeutic drug monitoring, can then be developed to optimize antibiotic exposure with the goal of improving outcomes in this difficult-to-treat patient group.

Model-Based Meta-analysis of Rifampicin Exposure and Mortality in Indonesian Tuberculous Meningitis Trials. Clin Infect Dis 2020; 71:1817-1823. [PMID: 31665299 PMCID: PMC7643733 DOI: 10.1093/cid/ciz1071] [Citation(s) in RCA: 40] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2019] [Accepted: 10/24/2019] [Indexed: 01/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intensified antimicrobial treatment with higher rifampicin doses may improve outcome of tuberculous meningitis, but the desirable exposure and necessary dose are unknown. Our objective was to characterize the relationship between rifampicin exposures and mortality in order to identify optimal dosing for tuberculous meningitis. METHODS An individual patient meta-analysis was performed on data from 3 Indonesian randomized controlled phase 2 trials comparing oral rifampicin 450 mg (~10 mg/kg) to intensified regimens including 750-1350 mg orally, or a 600-mg intravenous infusion. Pharmacokinetic data from plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were analyzed with nonlinear mixed-effects modeling. Six-month survival was described with parametric time-to-event models. RESULTS Pharmacokinetic analyses included 133 individuals (1150 concentration measurements, 170 from CSF). The final model featured 2 disposition compartments, saturable clearance, and autoinduction. Rifampicin CSF concentrations were described by a partition coefficient (5.5%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.5%-6.4%) and half-life for distribution plasma to CSF (2.1 hours; 95% CI, 1.3-2.9 hours). Higher CSF protein concentration increased the partition coefficient. Survival of 148 individuals (58 died, 15 dropouts) was well described by an exponentially declining hazard, with lower age, higher baseline Glasgow Coma Scale score, and higher individual rifampicin plasma exposure reducing the hazard. Simulations predicted an increase in 6-month survival from approximately 50% to approximately 70% upon increasing the oral rifampicin dose from 10 to 30 mg/kg, and predicted that even higher doses would further improve survival. CONCLUSIONS Higher rifampicin exposure substantially decreased the risk of death, and the maximal effect was not reached within the studied range. We suggest a rifampicin dose of at least 30 mg/kg to be investigated in phase 3 clinical trials.

Abstract
Safranal, a plant secondary metabolite isolated from saffron, has been reported for several promising pharmacological properties toward the management of Alzheimer's disease. In the present study, we observe and report for the first time about several druglike attributes of safranal, such as adherence to Lipinski's rule of five; optimum lipophilicity; high permeability; low blood-to-plasma ratio; less to moderate propensity to interact with P-glycoprotein (P-gp) or breast cancer-resistant protein (BCRP) transporters; and high plasma protein binding as common to most of the marketed drugs using in vitro and ex vivo models. In spite of the above attributes, in vivo oral absorption was found to be very poor, which is linked to the structural integrity of safranal in simulated gastric fluid, simulated intestinal fluid, plasma, and liver microsomes. Moreover, the presence of unsaturated aldehyde moiety in safranal remains in equilibrium with its hydroxylated acetal form. Further research work is required to find out the stable oral absorbable form of safranal by derivatization of its aldehyde group without losing its potency.

Abstract
Jatrorrhizine possesses a wide spectrum of pharmacological activities. However, the mechanism underlying hepatic uptake of jatrorrhizine remains unclear.Rat liver slices, isolated rat hepatocytes and human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells stably expressing human organic anion-transporting polypeptide (OATP) and organic cation transporter (OCT) were used to evaluate the hepatic uptake of jatrorrhizine in this study.Uptake of jatrorrhizine in rat liver slices and isolated rat hepatocytes was significantly inhibited by glycyrrhizic acid (Oatp1b2 inhibitor) and prazosin (Oct1 inhibitor), but not by ibuprofen (Oatp1a1 inhibitor) or digoxin (Oatp1a4 inhibitor). Uptake of jatrorrhizine in OATP1B3 and OCT1-HEK293 cells indicated a saturable process with the Km of 8.20 ± 1.28 and 4.94 ± 0.55 μM, respectively. However, the transcellular transport of jatrorrhizine in OATP1B1-HEK293 cells was not observed. Rifampicin (OATP inhibitor) for OATP1B3-HEK293 cells and prazosin for OCT1-HEK293 cells could inhibit the uptake of jatrorrhizine with the IC50 of 5.49 ± 1.05 and 2.77 ± 0.72 μM, respectively.The above data indicate that hepatic uptake of jatrorrhizine is involved in both OATP and OCT, which may have important roles in jatrorrhizine liver disposition and potential drug-drug interactions.
