Pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of faldaprevir in patients with renal impairment.

ABSTRACT: Faldaprevir is a potent hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3/4A protease inhibitor with negligible urinary excretion. We assessed the pharmacokinetics and safety of a single oral dose of faldaprevir (480 mg) in 32 HCV-negative subjects with renal impairment or normal renal function. Compared with subjects with normal renal function, the adjusted geometric mean ratios (90% confidence intervals in parentheses) for overall exposure area under the concentration-time curve from zero to infinity (AUC0-?) were 113.6% (41.6 to 310.2%), 178.3% (85.2 to 373.0%), and 169.2% (73.2 to 391.2%) for subjects with mild, moderate, and severe renal impairment, respectively. Overall, 5/8 (63%) subjects with normal renal function and 20/24 (83%) subjects with renal impairment reported adverse events, with gastrointestinal events being the most common. No severe or serious adverse events or deaths were reported. These results suggest that moderate or severe renal impairment can result in a modest increase in faldaprevir exposure. The increase in exposure may be related to decrease in the activity of the liver uptake transporter OATP1B1 as a result of renal impairment. Given this relatively slight increase in exposure, a dose adjustment in HCV patients with renal impairment is not warranted. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under registration number NCT01957657.).

Project description:Background and objectiveZibotentan, a selective endothelin A receptor antagonist, is in development for chronic liver and kidney disease. The pharmacokinetics (PK) of zibotentan were previously investigated in patients with either renal impairment or hepatic impairment, but the impact of both pathologies on PK was not evaluated. This study evaluated the PK and tolerability of a single oral dose of zibotentan in participants with concurrent moderate renal impairment and moderate hepatic impairment versus control participants.MethodsTwelve participants with moderate renal and hepatic impairment and 11 healthy matched control participants with no clinically significant liver or kidney disease were enrolled in an open-label, parallel-group study design. After administration of a single oral dose of zibotentan 5 mg, blood and urine sampling was performed. Pharmacokinetic parameters were determined for each of the two cohorts and compared. Comparisons between the cohorts were based on the geometric least squares mean ratio for the primary endpoints, which were area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) from time zero to infinity (AUC∞) and from time zero to the time of the last measurable concentration (AUClast), and maximum plasma drug concentration (Cmax) on Day 1 through 120 h post-dose. Secondary endpoints included apparent total body clearance (CL/F) on Day 1 through 120 h post-dose. Safety endpoints were assessed up to discharge.ResultsIn total, 11 participants with concurrent moderate renal and hepatic impairment, and 11 controls, completed the study. Zibotentan was generally well tolerated, and no new clinically significant safety findings were observed. Total exposure (AUC∞ and AUClast) was approximately 2.10-fold higher in participants with concurrent moderate renal and hepatic impairment versus controls, while Cmax and total nonrenal body clearance were similar among all groups. A regression-based post hoc analysis, comparing exposure and CL/F in patients with concurrent impairment to patients with either renal or hepatic impairment alone, showed that CL/F with concurrent impairment was approximately half of that in controls and was positively correlated with reduction of renal function. Inclusion of the data on concurrent moderate renal and hepatic impairment in the regression analysis led to a narrower confidence interval for the predicted mean CL/F in participants with moderate hepatic impairment.ConclusionThe presented findings advance the understanding of the PK of zibotentan in both renal impairment and hepatic impairment, with and without overlapping pathologies, and will thus increase the confidence of dose selection in future studies, particularly in vulnerable patient populations with concurrent renal and hepatic impairment.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT05112419.

Project description:Sulbactam-durlobactam is being developed for the treatment of infections caused by Acinetobacter baumannii, including those caused by multidrug- and carbapenem-resistant isolates. This was a phase 1 study to evaluate the effects of various degrees of renal impairment, including subjects with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis (HD), on the pharmacokinetics and safety profile of durlobactam (also known as ETX2514) and sulbactam after single intravenous (i.v.) dose administration. For healthy subjects and those with mild or moderate renal impairment (RI), single 1,000-mg doses each of durlobactam and sulbactam via a 3-h i.v. infusion were administered, and for severe renal impairment, 500-mg doses were administered. For subjects with ESRD and HD, 500-mg i.v. doses each of durlobactam and sulbactam were administered post-HD and pre-HD, with a 1-week washout between doses. Among 34 subjects, decreasing renal function increased systemic exposure (peak plasma concentration [Cmax] and area under the concentration-time curve [AUC]) to durlobactam and sulbactam in a generally linear manner. In healthy subjects and in those with mild or moderate renal impairment, the majority of durlobactam and sulbactam was excreted in the urine, while approximately 40% or less was excreted in urine in subjects with severe renal impairment or ESRD. In subjects with ESRD, hemodialysis was effective at removing both durlobactam and sulbactam from plasma. Renal impairment had no effect of the safety/tolerability profile of durlobactam and sulbactam. In summary, RI and ESRD had a predictable effect on the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of durlobactam and sulbactam with no adverse effects on the safety/tolerability profile. Durlobactam and sulbactam are cleared to a similar extent by renal elimination and are impacted similarly by renal impairment. The results from this study have been used with population PK modeling and nonclinically derived PK/PD (pharmacodynamic) exposure targets to establish dosage recommendations for durlobactam and sulbactam in patients with various degrees of RI. The dosing regimen of durlobactam-sulbactam will require adjustment in patients with severe renal insufficiency and in those with ESRD.
