Effect of hepatic or renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of evacetrapib.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Purpose
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of hepatic or renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of a single 130-mg evacetrapib dose.Methods
Two open-label, parallel-design studies in males and females with normal hepatic function or Child-Pugh mild, moderate, or severe hepatic impairment, or with normal renal function or severe renal impairment. Non-compartmental pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated from plasma concentration-time data. Evacetrapib safety and tolerability were assessed.Results
Pharmacokinetic parameter estimates were comparable between controls and mildly hepatically impaired subjects. Geometric mean area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) was greater, half-life (t1/2) was longer, and maximum concentration (Cmax) was lower in subjects with moderate and severe hepatic impairment than in controls. Apparent clearance (CL/F) did not differ between controls and those with mild hepatic impairment, but CL/F decreased for moderate and severe impairment. Spearman correlation coefficient showed no relationship between CL/F and Child-Pugh score. In the renal study, AUC and t1/2 were similar between groups, while Cmax was 15 % lower in subjects with severe impairment. CL/F in severely renally impaired subjects differed by <6 % from that in controls. Spearman correlation coefficient showed no apparent relationship between CL/F and estimated creatinine clearance or glomerular filtration rate. Neither study noted changes in clinical laboratory parameters or clinically significant findings. Adverse event incidence was low, and all were mild or moderate in severity.Conclusion
Evacetrapib exposure did not differ between mild hepatic impairment and normal hepatic function, but increased along the progression from mild to moderate to severe hepatic impairment. Severe renal impairment did not affect evacetrapib exposure.

Project description:Two open-label, single-dose, parallel-group studies were conducted to characterize the pharmacokinetics of the novel antibacterial tedizolid and the safety of tedizolid phosphate, its prodrug, in renally or hepatically impaired subjects. Tedizolid pharmacokinetics in subjects with severe renal impairment without dialysis support was compared with that of matched control subjects with normal renal function. Effects of hemodialysis on tedizolid pharmacokinetics were determined in a separate cohort of subjects undergoing long-term hemodialysis. Effects of hepatic impairment on tedizolid pharmacokinetics were determined in subjects with moderate or severe hepatic impairment and compared with those of matched control subjects with normal hepatic function. Each participant received a single oral (hepatic impairment) or intravenous (renal impairment) dose of tedizolid phosphate at 200 mg; hemodialysis subjects received two doses (separated by 7 days), before and after dialysis, in a crossover fashion. The pharmacokinetics of tedizolid was similar in subjects with severe renal impairment and controls (∼8% lower area under the concentration-time curve [AUC], with a nearly identical peak concentration) and in subjects undergoing hemodialysis before and after tedizolid phosphate administration (∼9% lower AUC, with a 15% higher peak concentration); <10% of the dose was removed during 4 h of hemodialysis. Tedizolid pharmacokinetics was only minimally altered in subjects with moderate or severe hepatic impairment; the AUC was increased approximately 22% and 34%, respectively, compared with that of subjects in the control group. Tedizolid phosphate was generally well tolerated in all participants. These results suggest that tedizolid phosphate dose adjustments are not necessary in patients with any degree of renal or hepatic impairment.

Project description:Alectinib is approved and recommended as the preferred first-line treatment for patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive non-small cell lung cancer. The effect of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of alectinib was assessed with physiologically based PK modeling prospectively and in a clinical study. An open-label study (NCT02621047) investigated a single 300-mg dose of alectinib in moderate (n = 8) and severe (n = 8) hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh B/C), and healthy subjects (n = 12) matched for age, sex, and body weight. Physiologically based PK modeling was conducted prospectively to inform the clinical study design and support the use of a lower dose and extended PK sampling in the study. PK parameters were calculated for alectinib, its major similarly active metabolite, M4, and the combined exposure of alectinib and M4. Unbound concentrations were assessed at 6 and 12 hours postdose. Administration of alectinib to subjects with hepatic impairment increased the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity of the combined exposure of alectinib and M4 to 136% (90% confidence interval [CI], 94.7-196) and 176% (90%CI 98.4-315), for moderate and severe hepatic impairment, respectively, relative to matched healthy subjects. Unbound concentrations for alectinib and M4 did not appear substantially different between hepatic-impaired and healthy subjects. Moderate hepatic impairment had only a modest, not clinically significant effect on alectinib exposure, while the higher exposure observed in severe hepatic impairment supports a dose adjustment in this population.

Project description:PurposeTo assess the impact of hepatic or renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of edivoxetine.MethodsTwo separate multi-center, open-label studies with males and females were conducted. Subjects were categorized according to their hepatic function, determined by the Child-Pugh classification, or renal function, determined by creatinine clearance using the Cockcroft-Gault equation. Subjects received a single dose of 18 mg in the hepatic impairment study or 6 mg in the renal impairment study. Noncompartmental PK parameters were computed from the edivoxetine plasma concentration-time data.ResultsIn the hepatic study, the geometric least squares mean (GLSM) and 90 % confidence interval (CI) of the ratio [impaired : normal] of area under the concentration versus time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-∞; h × ng/mL) was 1.24 (0.93, 1.64) in the mild, 1.60 (1.21, 2.12) in the moderate, and 1.70 (1.28, 2.24) in the severe group. In the renal impairment study, the GLSM (90 % CI) of the ratio [impaired : normal] of AUC0-∞ was 1.13 (0.73, 1.73) in mild, 1.90 (1.28, 2.82) in moderate, 1.55 (0.94, 2.55) in severe, and 1.03 (0.66, 1.59) in ESRD groups. Overall, the GLSM of the ratio [impaired : normal] of Cmax was slightly less than or approximately 1 across the hepatic and renal impairment groups. Across both studies, there were no clinically significant changes in vital signs and laboratory values, the adverse events were mild in severity and mostly related to nervous system and gastrointestinal disorder-related events.ConclusionsPK changes in subjects with hepatic or renal impairment were of small magnitude and did not appear to impact overall subject tolerability. Daily dosing of edivoxetine in a larger population of impaired subjects, including those with dual impairment, would aid in establishing edivoxetine tolerability and PK in a clinical practice scenario.

Project description:Background Brigatinib, a next-generation anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitor, targets activated, mutant forms of ALK and overcomes mechanisms of resistance to the ALK inhibitors crizotinib, ceritinib, and alectinib. Brigatinib is approved in multiple countries for treatment of patients with ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer. Based on population pharmacokinetic (PK) analyses, no dosage adjustment is required for patients with mild or moderate renal impairment. Methods An open-label, single-dose study was conducted to evaluate the PK of brigatinib (90 mg) in patients with severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2; n = 8) and matched healthy volunteers with normal renal function (estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m2; n = 8). Plasma and urine were collected for the determination of plasma protein binding and estimation of plasma and urine PK parameters. Results Plasma protein binding of brigatinib was similar between patients with severe renal impairment (92 % bound) and matched healthy volunteers with normal renal function (91 % bound). Unbound brigatinib exposure (area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity) was approximately 92 % higher in patients with severe renal impairment compared with healthy volunteers with normal renal function. The renal clearance of brigatinib in patients with severe renal impairment was approximately 20 % of that observed in volunteers with normal renal function. Conclusions These findings support a brigatinib dosage reduction of approximately 50 % in patients with severe renal impairment.Trial registry: Not applicable.

Project description:Lemborexant, a dual orexin receptor antagonist, is approved in the United States, Japan, and Canada for the treatment of insomnia in adults. This phase I, multicenter, open-label, parallel-group study assessed the impact of mild or moderate hepatic impairment (HI) on lemborexant pharmacokinetics and metabolism. The pharmacokinetics, tolerability, and safety of lemborexant were evaluated in subjects with mild (Child-Pugh class A) or moderate (Child-Pugh class B) HI and healthy age-, sex-, and body mass index (BMI)-matched control subjects (n = 8 subjects/group). Subjects received a single oral dose of lemborexant 10 mg (LEM10). Blood samples were collected up to 312 hours post dosing for lemborexant pharmacokinetics assessments. Median time to maximum plasma concentration was similar across all groups. Compared with healthy subjects, exposure measures (maximum plasma concentration [Cmax ] and area under the curve extrapolated to infinity [AUC0-inf ]) increased by ~58% (Cmax ) and ~25% (AUC0-inf ) in subjects with mild HI and ~22% (Cmax ) and ~54% (AUC0-inf ) in subjects with moderate HI. Clearance decreased by 20% and 35% in subjects with mild and moderate HI, respectively, versus healthy subjects. Lemborexant unbound fraction was similar in all groups (range: 0.060-0.065). All treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild in severity; no serious TEAEs occurred. In conclusion, following a single LEM10 dose, lemborexant exposure was similar in subjects with mild HI and increased in subjects with moderate HI versus healthy subjects. No dose adjustment is required in subjects with mild HI. Dosing in subjects with moderate HI should be restricted to 5 mg. Lemborexant was well tolerated in all groups.

Project description:Axitinib, an inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors, is approved as second-line treatment for advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Agents targeting the VEGF pathway may induce renal toxicities, which may be influenced by pre-existing renal dysfunction.The objective was to characterize axitinib pharmacokinetics and safety in patients with renal impairment.Effect of renal function (baseline creatinine clearance [CrCL]) on axitinib clearance was evaluated in a population pharmacokinetic model in 207 patients with advanced solid tumors who received a standard axitinib starting dose, and in 383 healthy volunteers. Axitinib safety according to baseline CrCL was assessed in previously treated patients with RCC (n?=?350) who received axitinib in the phase 3 AXIS study.Median axitinib clearance was 14.0, 10.7, 12.3, 7.81, and 12.6 L/h, respectively, in individuals with normal renal function (?90 ml/min; n?=?381), mild renal impairment (60-89 ml/min; n?=?139), moderate renal impairment (30-59 ml/min; n?=?64), severe renal impairment (15-29 ml/min; n?=?5), and end-stage renal disease (<15 ml/min; n?=?1). The population pharmacokinetic model adequately predicted axitinib clearance in individuals with severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease. Grade ?3 adverse events (AEs) were reported in 63 % of patients with normal renal function or mild impairment, 77 % with moderate impairment, and 50 % with severe impairment; study discontinuations due to AEs were 10 %, 11 %, and 0 %, respectively.Axitinib pharmacokinetics and safety were similar regardless of baseline renal function; no starting-dose adjustment is needed for patients with pre-existing mild to severe renal impairment.

Project description:Abstract Background Rezafungin (RZF) is a novel echinocandin antifungal being developed for treatment of candidemia and invasive candidiasis, and for prevention of invasive fungal diseases among immunosuppressed patients. In the Phase 2 and Phase 3 treatment trials of rezafungin compared with caspofungin (STRIVE [NCT02734862] and ReSTORE [NCT03667690], respectively), patients with severe hepatic impairment (HI) were not included due to lack of caspofungin data in this population. Rezafungin was previously evaluated in patients with moderate hepatic impairment. Here we report an open-label, single-dose study on rezafungin in patients with HI (Child-Pugh class C). Methods To investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of RZF in subjects with HI and healthy subjects (HS), 8 subjects with HI and 8 HS matched for age, sex, and body mass index (BMI) were enrolled and received a single 400-mg intravenous 1-hour infusion of RZF. Plasma PK sampling was performed at various time points through 336 hours postdose. RZF PK parameters were derived using non-compartmental analysis. Safety was assessed throughout the study. Results The majority of the HI subjects were White (87.5%) and male (75%) while equal distribution between White and Black or African American was observed among HS (50%) and 75% were male. The mean age of HI subjects was 58 years (range, 41–68 years) and 56.6 years (range, 50–61 years) for the HS. Mean BMI was 29.7 kg/m2 (range, 24.5–34.3 kg/m2) for HI subjects and 29.7 kg/m2 (range, 25.4–34.2 kg/m2) for the HS. RZF exposure (Cmax and AUC) in subjects with HI was ~30% lower than that in HS (Table 1), while half-life was generally similar (HI: 121 h, HS:124 h; Figure 1). Three HI subjects had one adverse event (AE) each (bronchitis, worsening hepatic encephalopathy, hyponatremia), all moderate in severity; one HS had 1 AE of infusion site infiltration mild in severity. No AEs were considered related to RZF, and all were resolved or resolving by the end of the study. Table 1. Plasma Rezafungin PK Parameter Estimates in Subjects with Severe Hepatic Impairment or Normal Hepatic Function After a Single 400 mg IV Infusion of Rezafungin Figure 1. Mean (+SD) Plasma Rezafungin Concentration-Time Profiles in Subjects with Severe Hepatic Impairment or Normal Hepatic Function After a Single 400-mg IV Infusion of Rezafungin (Semi-Logarithmic Scale) Conclusion RZF was well tolerated in HI subjects and showed modestly reduced exposure that was within the range observed in matched HS. These findings support no RZF dose adjustment in subjects with severe hepatic impairment.

Project description:Itacitinib is a novel, selective, Janus kinase 1 inhibitor in development for treatment of graft-versus-host disease. The objective of this study was to assess pharmacokinetics and safety of 300-mg itacitinib dosed in participants with normal renal function (n = 10), severe renal impairment (n = 8), and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis (n = 8). Serial plasma and urine samples (urine from normal and severe groups only) were collected before dosing until 72 hours after dosing. In the ESRD group, itacitinib was evaluated in 2 periods, when dosed before (period 1) and after (period 2) a hemodialysis session. Geometric mean ratios (90% confidence interval) in participants with severe renal impairment, ESRD period 1 and ESRD period 2 relative to participants with normal renal function were 1.65 (1.13-2.39), 0.71 (0.49-1.03), and 0.83 (0.57-1.20) for maximum plasma drug concentration and 2.23 (1.56-3.18), 0.81 (0.57-1.16), and 0.95 (0.66-1.35) for area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity. Itacitinib was well tolerated, and 3 grade 1 treatment-emergent adverse events were reported over the course of the study. Given the magnitude of exposure changes in participants with severe renal impairment or ESRD and the historic risk-benefit profile, no dose adjustment is recommended for itacitinib in patients with impaired renal function, although the final dosage recommendation will be based on cumulative pharmacokinetics and safety from this study and from the pivotal graft-versus-host disease trial. Additionally, itacitinib may be administered to patients undergoing dialysis regardless of the time of dialysis.

Project description:Aim/methodsThis was a phase 1, open label, non-randomized study designed to assess the pharmacokinetics and safety/tolerability of 10 consecutive once daily 40 mg oral doses of darapladib in subjects with moderate hepatic impairment (n = 12) compared with matched healthy volunteers (n = 12).ResultsFor total darapladib, a small increase in total and peak exposure was observed in the subjects with moderate hepatic impairment compared with the subjects with normal hepatic function. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve during a dosing interval of duration τ (AUC(0,τ), geometric mean 223 ng ml(-1) h [90% CI 158, 316 ng ml(-1 ) h], in moderate hepatic impaired subjects, vs. geometric mean 186 ng ml(-1 ) h [90% CI 159, 217 ng ml(-1 ) h], in healthy subjects) and maximum concentration (Cmax ) were 20% and 7% higher, respectively, in the subjects with moderate hepatic impairment than in the healthy control subjects and there was no change in time to maximum concentration (tmax ). Protein binding was performed to measure the amount of unbound drug vs. bound. Steady-state was achieved by day 10 for darapladib and its metabolites (M4, M3 and M10). Darapladib was generally well tolerated, with adverse events (AEs) reported by seven subjects in the hepatic impairment group and three subjects in the healthy matched group (five and one of which were drug-related AEs, respectively). The most common AEs were gastrointestinal. These AEs were mostly mild to moderate and there were no deaths, serious AEs or withdrawals due to AEs.ConclusionsThe results of this phase 1 study show that darapladib (40 mg) is well tolerated and its pharmacokinetics remain relatively unchanged in patients with moderate hepatic impairment.

Project description:Tasimelteon is a circadian regulator that resets the master clock in the suprachiasmatic nuclei of the hypothalamus by binding to both melatonin MT1 and MT2 receptors making it a dual melatonin receptor agonist. Tasimelteon has been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of Non-24-Hour Sleep-Wake Disorder (Non-24). Two prospective, single-center, open-label studies evaluated the pharmacokinetics of tasimelteon and its main metabolites after a single 20?mg dose administered to subjects with mild or moderate hepatic impairment or severe renal impairment, including subjects on dialysis compared to healthy controls. In subjects with mild or moderate hepatic impairment, exposure to tasimelteon after a single 20?mg dose, as measured by area under the plasma concentration-time curve to infinity, was increased by approximately 2-fold. There was no apparent relationship between tasimelteon clearance and renal function. No safety concerns were apparent in either study. Based on these results, the changes in the pharmacokinetics of tasimelteon due to mild or moderate hepatic or severe renal impairment are not considered clinically relevant, and no dose adjustment is necessary in these patients.
