Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of nemonoxacin against Streptococcus pneumoniae in an in vitro infection model.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this paper was to investigate the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of nemonoxacin, a novel nonfluorinated quinolone, against Streptococcus pneumoniae in vitro. A modified infection model was used to simulate the pharmacokinetics of nemonoxacin following scaling of single oral doses and multiple oral dosing. Four S. pneumoniae strains with different penicillin sensitivities were selected, and the drug efficacy was quantified by the change in log colony counts within 24 h. A sigmoid maximum-effect (Emax) model was used to analyze the relationship between PK/PD parameters and drug effect. Analysis indicated that the killing pattern of nemonoxacin shows a dualism which is mainly concentration dependent when the MIC is low and that the better PK/PD index should be the area under the concentration-time curve for the free, unbound fraction of the drug divided by the MIC (fAUC0-24/MIC), which means that giving the total daily amount of drug as one dose is appropriate under those conditions. When the MIC is high, the time (T) dependency is important and the valid PK/PD index should be the cumulative percentage of a 24-h period in which the drug concentration exceeds the MIC under steady-state pharmacokinetic conditions (f%T>MIC), which means that to split the maximum daily dose into several separate doses will benefit the eradication of the bacteria. To obtain a 3-log10-unit decrease, the target values of fAUC0-24/MIC and f%T>MIC are 47.05 and 53.4%, respectively.

Project description:We have previously demonstrated the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) index best associated with the efficacy of tazobactam when used in combination with ceftolozane to be the percentage of the dosing interval during which tazobactam concentrations remained above a threshold value (%time>threshold). Using anin vitroinfection model and the same isogenic CTX-M-15-producingEscherichia colitriplet set genetically engineered to transcribe different levels ofblaCTX-M-15, herein we describe dose fractionation studies designed to evaluate the PK-PD index associated with tazobactam efficacy, when given in combination with piperacillin, and the impact of the presence of a different ?-lactam agent, or differentblaCTX-M-15transcription levels, on the magnitude of the tazobactam PK-PD index necessary for efficacy. The recombinant strains demonstrated piperacillin MIC values of 128, >256, and >256 ?g/ml for the low-, moderate-, and high-level CTX-M-15-producingE. colistrains, respectively. The MIC value for piperacillin in the presence of 4 ?g/ml of tazobactam was 2 ?g/ml for all three strains. The PK-PD index associated with tazobactam efficacy was confirmed to be %time>threshold, regardless of ?-lactamase transcription (r(2)= 0.839). The tazobactam concentration thresholds, however, changed with the CTX-M-15 transcription level and were 0.25, 0.5, and 2 ?g/ml for the low-, moderate-, and high-level CTX-M-15-producing strains, respectively (r(2)= 0.921, 0.773, and 0.875, respectively). The %time>threshold values for tazobactam necessary for net bacterial stasis and a 1- and 2-log10-unit CFU/ml decrease from baseline at 24 h were 44.9, 62.9, and 84.9%, respectively. In addition to verifying our previous study results, these results also demonstrated that the magnitude of bacterial-cell killing associated with a ?-lactam-?-lactamase inhibitor combination is dependent on the amount of ?-lactamase produced. These data provide important information for the development of ?-lactam-?-lactamase inhibitor combination agents.
