Oh YI, An JH, Lim GH, Park SM, Kim TH, Seo KW, Youn HY. Pamidronate-induced irreversible symptomatic hypocalcemia in a dog with hypercalcemia after glucocorticoid withdrawal: a case report. BMC Vet Res 2024; 20:227. [PMID: 38790012 PMCID: PMC11127328 DOI: 10.1186/s12917-024-04030-x] [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: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pamidronate is used for the treatment of hypercalcemia. However, a rare but potential adverse event of pamidronate treatment is hypocalcemia. This report describes an unusual case of severe, irreversible hypocalcemia after a single injection of pamidronate for the treatment of hypercalcemia due to glucocorticoid withdrawal in a dog. CASE PRESENTATION An 11-year-old castrated male Maltese dog presented with anorexia, vomiting, and diarrhea (day 0). The patient had calcinosis cutis throughout the body, calcification of intraabdominal organs, mild azotemia, and severe hypercalcemia. The severe calcification was attributed to long-term glucocorticoid administration, which was discontinued 1 month before presentation. Fluid therapy, diuretics, calcitonin, and a single intravenous injection of pamidronate were used for the treatment of hypercalcemia. On day 14, normocalcemia was achieved, but renal failure occurred. On day 20, severe and irreversible hypocalcemia occurred, and on day 42, the patient was euthanized at the owner's request because of worsened hypocalcemia and renal failure. CONCLUSIONS Although hypocalcemia is an extremely rare adverse event of bisphosphonate treatment, bisphosphonates like pamidronate can result in potentially life-threatening conditions according to the patient's underlying conditions. Therefore, the patient's condition should be closely monitored and any underlying conditions should be carefully evaluated before initiating the treatment for hypercalcemia using pamidronate.

Br J Clin Pharmacol 2024; 90:189-199. [PMID: 37596703 DOI: 10.1111/bcp.15888] [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: 01/24/2023] [Revised: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 08/06/2023] [Indexed: 08/20/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS ABBV-3373, an immunology antibody-drug conjugate composed of adalimumab conjugated to a proprietary glucocorticoid receptor modulator (the small-molecule payload), has the potential to treat immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. This first-in-human study investigated the pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics (PD) using a safety PD marker, and safety/tolerability of ABBV-3373 in healthy adults. METHODS Fifty-five participants were randomly assigned to single-dose subcutaneous (SC; 30, 100 or 300 mg) or intravenous (IV; 30, 300 or 900 mg) ABBV-3373 or placebo. Eight additional participants received a single dose of 10 mg oral prednisone for evaluation of systemic glucocorticoid effects. Blood samples were collected for up to 85 days postdose for PK, anti-drug antibody and serum cortisol (safety PD marker) assessments. RESULTS ABBV-3373 and total antibody displayed antibody-like SC/IV PK profiles and the unconjugated/free payload in circulation exhibited formation rate-limited kinetics with exposure several fold lower than ABBV-3373 or total antibody. Treatment-emergent anti-drug antibody incidence was 69%, with loss of exposure in 6% (SC) and 5% (IV) of participants, but without any impact on safety. ABBV-3373 up to 300 mg SC/IV had no apparent impact on serum cortisol, and only caused a transient decrease at 900 mg IV. Treatment-emergent adverse events were primarily mild in severity, and no pattern emerged with respect to dose or route of administration. CONCLUSIONS ABBV-3373 had favourable PK profiles, manageable immunogenicity, and was generally well-tolerated. Except for a transient effect at 900 mg IV, there was no apparent impact on serum cortisol. Study results supported further clinical development of ABBV-3373.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Glucocorticoid withdrawal syndrome (GWS) can develop after withdrawing exposure to supraphysiological levels of endogenous or exogenous glucocorticoids due to an established physical dependence. It is characterised by symptoms similar to adrenal insufficiency but needs to be regarded as a separate entity. GWS is often under-recognised in clinical practice and affected patients can experience significant impairment in their quality of life. RECENT FINDINGS A cornerstone in GWS management is adequate patient education and reassurance that symptoms are expected and typically temporary. Patients with endogenous Cushing's syndrome need to be aware that psychopathology may persist into the postoperative period. GWS is more likely to develop in severe Cushing's syndrome and in patients with very low levels of cortisol after surgery. Postoperatively, glucocorticoid replacement should be initiated and tapered in an individualised approach but there is currently no consensus on the best tapering strategy. If symptoms of GWS develop, glucocorticoid replacement ought to be temporarily increased to the previous, well tolerated dose. No randomised studies have thus far compared regimens for withdrawing glucocorticoids after treatment for anti-inflammatory or immunosuppressive causes to determine the best and safest tapering strategy. One open-label, single-arm trial in patients with asthma has recently proposed a personalised glucocorticoid tapering regimen which included the systematic assessment of adrenal function. SUMMARY Awareness of GWS by treating physicians and patient education are essential. Evidence on optimal GWS management after Cushing's syndrome treatment is scarce, but new data are emerging for tapering after long-term glucocorticoid treatment.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 14:1168797. [PMID: 37274338 PMCID: PMC10232950 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2023.1168797] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Acute adrenal crisis classically presents with vomiting, altered sensorium, and hypotension. We describe a unique case manifesting with severe hypercalcemia. Addisonian crisis was unusually precipitated by fluconazole use. We reviewed other reported cases and discuss the possible mechanisms of hypercalcemia in adrenal insufficiency. This 67-year-old man presented with fever, cough, and vomiting for 1 week and with anorexia and confusion for 3 weeks. He was hypotensive and clinically dehydrated. Investigations revealed left-sided lung consolidation, acute renal failure, and severe non-parathyroid hormone (PTH)-mediated hypercalcemia (calcium, 3.55mol/L; PTH, 0.81pmol/L). Initial impression was pneumonia complicated by septic shock and hypercalcemia secondary to possible malignancy. He received mechanical ventilation; treatment with intravenous fluids, inotropes, and hydrocortisone for septic shock; and continuous renal replacement therapy with low-calcium dialysate. Although hypercalcemia resolved and he was weaned off inotropes, dialysis, and hydrocortisone, his confusion persisted. When hypercalcemia recurred on day 19 of admission, early morning cortisol was <8 nmol/L, with low ACTH level (3.2 ng/L). Other pituitary hormones were normal. Hypercalcemia resolved 3 days after reinstating stress doses of hydrocortisone, and his mentation normalized. On further questioning, he recently received fluconazole for a forearm abscess. He previously consumed traditional medications but stopped several years ago, which may have contained glucocorticoids. He was discharged on oral hydrocortisone. Cortisol levels improved gradually, and glucocorticoid replacement was ceased after 8 years, without any recurrence of hypercalcemia or Addisonian crisis. Both hypercalcemia and adrenal insufficiency may present with similar non-specific symptoms. It is important to consider adrenal insufficiency in hypercalcemia of unclear etiology.

Time to onset of clinical response to anifrolumab in patients with SLE: pooled data from the phase III TULIP-1 and TULIP-2 trials. Lupus Sci Med 2023; 10:10/1/e000761. [PMID: 36639192 PMCID: PMC9843193 DOI: 10.1136/lupus-2022-000761] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the time course of clinical response following anifrolumab treatment in patients with SLE. METHODS A post hoc analysis was conducted using pooled data from phase III, randomised, 52-week, placebo-controlled, Treatment of Uncontrolled Lupus via the Interferon Pathway (TULIP)-1 and TULIP-2 trials of intravenous anifrolumab (every 4 weeks, 48 weeks) in patients with moderate-to-severe SLE receiving standard therapy. Anifrolumab 300 mg and placebo groups were compared for British Isles Lupus Assessment Group-based Composite Lupus Assessment (BICLA) response over time, time to sustained BICLA response, SLE Responder Index ≥4 (SRI(4)) response over time, time to sustained Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Disease Area and Severity Index Activity (CLASI-A) response and change in glucocorticoid dosage over time. All p values for comparisons were nominal. RESULTS Of the 726 evaluated patients (anifrolumab 300 mg, n=360; placebo, n=366), a greater proportion attained a BICLA response in the anifrolumab versus the placebo group from Week 8 (p<0.001); treatment group differentiation was maintained at all subsequent visits to Week 52. Consistently, more patients achieved a BICLA response sustained to Week 52 in the anifrolumab versus placebo group (HR=1.73, 95% CI 1.37 to 2.20). More patients attained SRI(4) response with anifrolumab than placebo from Week 12 (p=0.005). As early as Week 8, more patients achieved CLASI-A skin response sustained to Week 52 with anifrolumab versus placebo (HR=1.72, 95% CI 1.17 to 2.55). Glucocorticoid dosage reductions from baseline were greater in anifrolumab-treated versus placebo-treated patients from Week 20 (p=0.010) through Week 52. CONCLUSIONS Anifrolumab treatment was associated with sustained improvements in overall SLE disease activity and skin responses versus placebo from Week 8, which likely led to greater glucocorticoid reductions in the anifrolumab versus placebo groups from Week 20. These findings provide insights to physicians and patients on when to expect potential clinical responses following anifrolumab treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine individual, medication, system, and healthcare related predictors of hospitalization and emergency department (ED) presentation within 90 days of entering the aged care sector, and to create risk-profiles associated with these outcomes. DESIGN AND SETTING Retrospective population-based cohort study using data from the Registry of Senior Australians. PARTICIPANTS Older people (aged 65 and older) with an aged care eligibility assessment in South Australia between January 1, 2013 and May 31, 2016 (N = 22,130). MEASUREMENTS Primary outcomes were unplanned hospitalization and ED presentation within 90 days of assessment. Individual, medication, system, and healthcare related predictors of the outcomes at the time of assessment, within 90 days or 1-year prior. Fine-Gray models were used to calculate subdistribution hazard ratios (sHR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). Harrell's C-index assessed predictive ability. RESULTS Four thousand nine-hundred and six (22.2%) individuals were hospitalized and 5028 (22.7%) had an ED presentation within 90 days. Predictors of hospitalization included: being a man (hospitalization sHR = 1.33, 95% CI 1.26-1.42), ≥3 urgent after-hours attendances (hospitalization sHR = 1.21, 95% CI 1.06-1.39), increasing frailty index score (hospitalization sHR = 1.19, 95% CI 1.11-1.28), individuals using glucocorticoids (hospitalization sHR = 1.11, 95% CI 1.02-1.20), sulfonamides (hospitalization sHR = 1.18, 95% CI 1.10-1.27), trimethoprim antibiotics (hospitalization sHR = 1.15, 95% CI 1.03-1.29), unplanned hospitalizations 30 days prior (hospitalization sHR = 1.13, 95% CI 1.04-1.23), and ED presentations 1 year prior (hospitalization sHR = 1.07, 95% CI 1.04-1.10). Similar predictors and hazard estimates were also observed for ED presentations. The hospitalization models out-of-sample predictive ability (C-index = 0.653, 95% CI 0.635-0.670) and ED presentations (C-index = 0.647, 95% CI 0.630-0.663) were moderate. CONCLUSIONS One in five individuals with aged care eligibility assessments had unplanned hospitalizations and/or ED presentation within 90 days with several predictors identified at the time of aged care eligibility assessment. This is an actionable period for targeting at-risk individuals to reduce hospitalizations.

Abstract
Background Darunavir is an anti-HIV protease inhibitor repurposed for SARS-CoV-2 treatment. Objective The aim of this study was to assess the population pharmacokinetics of darunavir in SARS-CoV-2 patients compared with HIV patients. Methods Two separate models were created by means of a nonlinear mixed-effect approach. The influence of clinical covariates on each basic model was tested and the association of significant covariates with darunavir parameters was assessed at multivariate regression and classification and regression tree (CART) analyses. Monte Carlo simulation assessed the influence of covariates on the darunavir concentration versus time profile. Results A one-compartment model well-described darunavir concentrations in both groups. In SARS-CoV-2 patients (n = 30), interleukin (IL)-6 and body surface area were covariates associated with darunavir oral clearance (CL/F) and volume of distribution (Vd), respectively; no covariates were identified in HIV patients (n = 25). Darunavir CL/F was significantly lower in SARS-CoV-2 patients compared with HIV patients (4.1 vs. 10.3 L/h; p < 0.001). CART analysis found that an IL-6 level of 18 pg/mL may split the SARS-CoV-2 population in patients with low versus high darunavir CL/F (mean ± standard deviation 3.47 ± 1.90 vs. 8.03 ± 3.24 L/h; proportion of reduction in error = 0.46). Median (interquartile range) darunavir CL/F was significantly lower in SARS-CoV-2 patients with IL-6 levels ≥ 18 pg/mL than in SARS-CoV-2 patients with IL-6 levels < 18 pg/mL or HIV patients (2.78 [2.16–4.47] vs. 7.24 [5.88–10.38] vs. 9.75 [8.45–13.79] L/h, respectively; p < 0.0001). Increasing IL-6 levels affected darunavir concentration versus time simulated profiles. We hypothesized that increases in IL-6 levels associated with severe SARS-CoV-2 disease may downregulate the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4-mediated metabolism of darunavir. Conclusions This is a proof-of-concept of SARS-CoV-2 disease–drug interactions, and may support the need for optimal dose selection of sensitive CYP3A4 substrates in severe SARS-CoV-2 patients.
