Reduced indinavir exposure during pregnancy.

ABSTRACT: To describe the pharmacokinetics and safety of indinavir boosted with ritonavir (IDV/r) during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy and in the post-partum period.IMPAACT P1026s is an on-going, prospective, non-blinded study of antiretroviral pharmacokinetics (PK) in HIV-infected pregnant women with a Thai cohort receiving IDV/r 400/100 mg twice daily during pregnancy through to 6-12 weeks post-partum as part of clinical care. Steady-state PK profiles were performed during the second (optional) and third trimesters and at 6-12 weeks post-partum. PK targets were the estimated 10(th) percentile IDV AUC (12.9 ?g ml(-1)h) in non-pregnant historical Thai adults and a trough concentration of 0.1 ?g ml(-1), the suggested minimum target.Twenty-six pregnant women were enrolled; thirteen entered during the second trimester. Median (range) age was 29.8 (18.9-40.8) years and weight 60.5 (50.0-85.0) kg at the third trimester PK visit. The 90% confidence limits for the geometric mean ratio of the indinavir AUC(0,12 h) and Cmax during the second trimester and post-partum (ante : post ratios) were 0.58 (0.49, 0.68) and 0.73 (0.59, 0.91), respectively; third trimester/post-partum AUC(0,12 h) and Cmax ratios were 0.60 (0.53, 0.68) and 0.63 (0.55, 0.72), respectively. IDV/r was well tolerated and 21/26 women had a HIV-1 viral load < 40 copies ml(-1) at delivery. All 26 infants were confirmed HIV negative.Indinavir exposure during the second and third trimesters was significantly reduced compared with post-partum and ?30% of women failed to achieve a target trough concentration. Increasing the dose of IDV/r during pregnancy to 600/100 mg twice daily may be preferable to ensure adequate drug concentrations.

Project description:Reduced fetal growth is associated with perinatal and later morbidity. Prenatal exposure to environmental pollutants is linked to reduced fetal growth at birth, but the impact of concomitant exposure to multiple pollutants is unclear. The purpose of this study was to examine interactions between early pregnancy exposure to cigarette smoke, traffic pollution, and select perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) on birth weight-for-gestational age (BW/GA).Among 1597 Project Viva mother-infant pairs, we assessed maternal cigarette smoking by questionnaire, traffic pollution at residential address by black carbon land use regression model, and plasma concentration of select PFASs in early pregnancy. We calculated sex-specific BW/GA z-scores, an index of fetal growth, from national reference data. We fit covariate-adjusted multi-pollutant linear regression models and examined interactions between exposures, using a likelihood-ratio test to identify a best-fit model.Two hundred six (13%) mothers smoked during pregnancy. Mean [standard deviation (SD)] for black carbon was 0.8 (0.3) ?g/m3, perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) was 29.1 (16.5) ng/mL, and BW/GA z-score was 0.19 (0.96). In the best-fit model, BW/GA z-score was lower in infants of mothers exposed to greater black carbon [-?0.08 (95% CI: -0.15, -?0.01) per interquartile range (IQR)]. BW/GA z-score (95% CI) was also lower in infants of mothers who smoked [-?0.09 (-?0.23, 0.06)] or were exposed to greater PFOS [-?0.03 (-?0.07, 0.02) per IQR], although confidence intervals crossed the null. There were no interactions between exposures. In secondary analyses, instead of PFOS, we examined perfluorononanoate (PFNA) [mean (SD): 0.7 (0.4) ng/mL], a PFAS more closely linked to lower BW/GA in our cohort. The best-fit multi-pollutant model included positive two-way interactions between PFNA and both black carbon and smoking (p-interactions?=?0.03).Concurrent prenatal exposures to maternal smoking, black carbon, and PFOS are additively associated with lower fetal growth, whereas PFNA may attenuate associations of smoking and black carbon with lower fetal growth. It is important to examine interactions between multiple exposures in relation to health outcomes, as effects may not always be additive and may shed light on biological pathways.

Project description:BackgroundPrenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) is a worldwide public health concern. While PAE is known to be associated with low birth weight, little is known about timing and quantity of PAE on fetal growth. This study investigated the association between periconceptional and prenatal alcohol exposure and longitudinal fetal growth, focusing on timing and quantity in a high exposure cohort.MethodsThe Safe Passage Study was a prospective cohort study, including 1698 pregnant women. Two-dimensional transabdominal ultrasound examinations were performed to measure fetal femur length, abdominal and head circumference, and biparietal diameter, at three time points during pregnancy. Estimated fetal weight and Z-scores of all parameters were calculated. Trimester-specific alcohol exposure was assessed using the Timeline Followback method. To investigate the associations of specific timing of PAE and fetal growth, two models were built. One with alcohol exposure as accumulative parameter over the course of pregnancy and one trimester specific model, in which PAE was separately analyzed. Linear mixed models adjusted for potential confounders were applied with repeated assessments of both alcohol exposure and fetal growth outcomes.ResultsThis study demonstrated that periconceptional and prenatal alcohol exposure were associated with reduced fetal growth. Effect sizes are displayed as estimated differences (ED) in Z-score and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). When investigated as accumulative parameter, PAE was related to a smaller femur length (ED30; - 0.13 (95% CI; - 0.22; - 0.04), ED36; - 0.14 (95% CI; - 0.25; - 0.04)) and a smaller abdominal circumference (ED36; - 0.09 (95% CI; - 0.18; - 0.01)). Periconceptional alcohol exposure was associated with a smaller abdominal circumference (ED30; - 0.14 (95% CI; - 0.25; - 0.02), ED36; - 0.22 (95% CI; - 0.37; - 0.06)) and a smaller estimated fetal weight (ED36; - 0.22 (95% CI; - 0.38; - 0.05)). Second trimester alcohol exposure was associated with a smaller abdominal circumference (ED30; - 0.49 (95% CI; - 0.86; - 0.12), ED36; - 0.70 (95% CI; - 1.22; - 0.17)) and estimated fetal weight (ED30; - 0.54 (95% CI; - 0.94; - 0.14), ED36; - 0.69 (95% CI; - 1.25; - 0.14)). No additional association of binge drinking was found besides the already observed association of PAE and fetal growth.ConclusionsThis study demonstrated that PAE negatively affects fetal growth, in particular when exposed during the periconception period or in second trimester. Our results indicate that potential negative consequences of PAE are detectable already before birth. Therefore, healthcare providers should actively address and discourage alcohol use during pregnancy.

Project description:ImportanceStatins are the drug class most commonly used to treat hyperlipidemia. Recently, they have been used during pregnancy for the prevention or treatment of preeclampsia. However, the safety of statin use during pregnancy has been questioned, and the sample sizes of most previous studies have been small.ObjectiveTo examine the perinatal outcomes among offspring associated with maternal use of statins during pregnancy.Design, setting, and participantsThis retrospective cohort study included 1 443 657 pregnant women 18 years of age or older with their first infant born during the period from January 1, 2004, to December 31, 2014. Data for this study were taken from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database. Statistical analysis was performed from April 7, 2020, to July 31, 2021.ExposuresMaternal statin use during pregnancy.Main outcomes and measuresWomen who have received a diagnosis of hyperlipidemia before pregnancy and who were receiving prescription statins during pregnancy were the statin-exposed group. Data on congenital anomalies, birth weight, gestational age, preterm birth, low birth weight, very low birth weight, fetal distress, and Apgar score were compared between participants with and partcipants without statin exposure during pregnancy. Risk ratios (RRs) were calculated by multivariable analyses using Poisson regression models to adjust for potential confounders. Subgroup analysis was performed to compare offspring of women who used statins for more than 3 months prior to pregnancy and maintained or stopped statin use after pregnancy.ResultsA total of 469 women (mean [SD] age, 32.6 [5.4] years; mean [SD] gestational age, 38.4 [1.6] weeks) who used statins during pregnancy and 4690 age-matched controls (mean [SD] age, 32.0 [4.9] years; mean [SD] gestational age, 37.3 [2.4] weeks) with no statin exposure during pregnancy were enrolled. After controlling for maternal comorbidities and age, low birth weight was more common among offspring in the statin-exposed group (RR, 1.51 [95% CI, 1.05-2.16]), with a greater chance of preterm birth (RR, 1.99 [95% CI, 1.46-2.71]), and a lower 1-minute Apgar score (RR, 1.83 [95% CI, 1.04-3.20]). Congenital anomalies were not associated with statin exposure during pregnancy. In addition, multivariable analysis showed that there was no association between statin use for periconceptual hyperlipidemia and adverse perinatal outcomes among women who had used statins prior to pregnancy.Conclusions and relevanceThis study suggests that statins may be safe when used during pregnancy because there was no association with congenital anomalies, but caution is needed because of an increased risk of low birth weight and preterm labor. The data also suggest that statins could be safely used during pregnancy for women with long-term use of statins before pregnancy.

Project description:BackgroundThe objective of this study was to determine if the lack of exposure to individual antidepressants at certain times in pregnancy improved maternal and infant outcomes.MethodsThis was a retrospective cohort study of 2741 pregnant women prescribed antidepressant(s) before or during pregnancy. Data were obtained from electronic medical records. Analysis was limited to women prescribed one of five antidepressants (bupropion, citalopram, escitalopram, fluoxetine, sertraline). Period of exposure was determined using prescription order dates. Primary outcomes were neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission and adaptation syndrome in the newborn. Logistic regression, adjusted for maternal age, race, and insurance, compared consistent exposure throughout pregnancy versus (A) no exposure in the third trimester, (B) no exposure early in pregnancy, and (C) exposure in the midtrimester alone.ResultsCompared to women prescribed an antidepressant continually throughout pregnancy, NICU admission was less likely for women lacking exposure in the third trimester if they had been taking bupropion (aOR 0.43, 95% CI 0.21-0.90) or escitalopram (aOR 0.49, 95% CI 0.28-0.85). Women previously taking escitalopram but lacking third trimester exposure also had lower odds of adaptation syndrome (aOR 0.19, 95% CI 0.07-0.48). No differences were found in other outcomes for women taking other antidepressants or for any outcomes for women who lacked early pregnancy drug exposure compared to exposure throughout pregnancy.ConclusionFor the five antidepressants included in this study, lack of exposure early or late in pregnancy compared to consistent exposure throughout pregnancy generally did not change newborn outcomes. The exceptions were bupropion and escitalopram, where lack of exposure in the third trimester associated with lower rates of adaptation syndrome or NICU admission. These data may help pregnant women with depression in need of drug therapy to have informed discussions with providers about the potential risks and benefits to continuing or stopping drugs at different times during pregnancy.
