Effect of carbamazepine on dolutegravir pharmacokinetics and dosing recommendation.

ABSTRACT: Dolutegravir (DTG) is primarily metabolized by UGT1A1 with CYP3A as a minor route. Carbamazepine (CBZ) is a potent inducer of these enzymes; thus, the effect of oral extended-release CBZ on DTG pharmacokinetics (PK) was evaluated to provide dose recommendation when co-administered.This was a single-center, open-label, fixed-sequence, crossover study in healthy adults. Subjects received three treatments: DTG 50 mg every 24 h (q24h) × 5 days in period 1, followed by CBZ 100 mg every 12 h (q12h) × 3 days, then 200 mg q12h × 3 days, then 300 mg q12h × 10 days in period 2, and DTG 50 mg q24h + CBZ 300 mg q12h × 5 days in period 3. No washout intervals occurred. Each dose was administered with a moderate-fat meal. Serial PK samples for DTG were collected on day 5 of periods 1 and 3. Plasma DTG PK parameters were determined with non-compartmental analysis. Geometric least-squares mean ratios (GMRs) and 90 % confidence intervals (CIs) were generated by the mixed-effect model for within-subject treatment comparisons. Safety assessments were performed throughout the study.Sixteen subjects enrolled; 14 completed the study. CBZ significantly reduced DTG exposure: GMRs (90 % CI) for DTG + CBZ versus DTG alone were 0.51 (0.48-0.549), 0.67 (0.61-0.73), and 0.27 (0.24-0.31) for area under the curve from time zero to the end of the dosing interval (AUC(0-?)), maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax), and plasma concentration at the end of the dosing interval (C?), respectively. DTG alone and co-administered with CBZ was well tolerated.Integrase strand transfer inhibitor-naive subjects taking CBZ should receive DTG 50 mg twice daily versus once daily, as is recommended with other potent UGT1A/CYP3A inducers. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01967771.

Project description:Dolutegravir-based regimens are recommended as first-line therapy for HIV in low- and middle-income countries where tuberculosis is the most common opportunistic infection. Concurrent HIV/tuberculosis treatment is challenging because of drug-drug interactions. Our analysis aimed to characterize dolutegravir's population pharmacokinetics when coadministered with rifampicin and assess alternative dolutegravir dosing regimens. We developed a population pharmacokinetic model of dolutegravir in NONMEM with data from two healthy-volunteer studies (RADIO and ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01231542) and validated it with data from the INSPIRING study, which consisted of participants living with HIV. The model was developed with 817 dolutegravir plasma concentrations from 41 participants. A 2-compartment model with first-order elimination and lagged absorption best described dolutegravir's pharmacokinetics. For a typical 70-kg individual, we estimated a clearance, absorption rate constant, central volume, and peripheral volume of 1.03 L/h, 1.61 h-1, 12.7 L, and 3.85 L, respectively. Rifampicin coadministration increased dolutegravir clearance by 144% (95% confidence interval [CI], 126 to 161%). Simulations showed that when 50 or 100 mg once-daily dolutegravir is coadministered with rifampicin in 70-kg individuals, 71.7% and 91.5% attain trough concentrations above 0.064 mg/L, the protein-adjusted 90% inhibitory concentration (PA-IC90), respectively. The model developed from healthy-volunteer data describes patient data reasonably well but underpredicts trough concentrations. Although 50 mg of dolutegravir given twice daily achieves target concentrations in more than 99% of individuals cotreated with rifampicin, 100 mg of dolutegravir, once daily, in the same population is predicted to achieve satisfactory pharmacokinetic target attainment. The efficacy of this regimen should be investigated since it presents an opportunity for treatment simplification.
