Plasma metabolomics in adults with cystic fibrosis during a pulmonary exacerbation: A pilot randomized study of high-dose vitamin D3 administration.

ABSTRACT: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a chronic catabolic disease often requiring hospitalization for acute episodes of worsening pulmonary exacerbations. Limited data suggest that vitamin D may have beneficial clinical effects, but the impact of vitamin D on systemic metabolism in this setting is unknown.We used high-resolution metabolomics (HRM) to assess the impact of baseline vitamin D status and high-dose vitamin D3 administration on systemic metabolism in adults with CF with an acute pulmonary exacerbation.Twenty-five hospitalized adults with CF were enrolled in a randomized trial of high-dose vitamin D3 (250,000IU vitamin D3 bolus) versus placebo. Age-matched healthy subjects served as a reference group for baseline comparisons. Plasma was analyzed with liquid chromatography/ultra-high resolution mass spectrometry. Using recent HRM bioinformatics and metabolic pathway enrichment methods, we examined associations with baseline vitamin D status (sufficient vs. deficient per serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations) and the 7-day response to vitamin D3 supplementation.Several amino acids and lipid metabolites differed between CF and healthy control subjects, indicative of an overall catabolic state. In CF subjects, 343 metabolites differed (P<0.05) by baseline vitamin D status and were enriched within 7 metabolic pathways including fatty acid, amino acid, and carbohydrate metabolism. A total of 316 metabolites, which showed enrichment for 15 metabolic pathways-predominantly representing amino acid pathways-differed between the vitamin D3- and placebo-treated CF subjects over time (P<0.05). In the placebo group, several tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates increased while several amino acid-related metabolites decreased; in contrast, little change in these metabolites occurred with vitamin D3 treatment.Numerous metabolic pathways detected by HRM varied in association with vitamin D status and high-dose vitamin D3 supplementation in adults with CF experiencing a pulmonary exacerbation. Overall, these pilot data suggest an anti-catabolic effect of high-dose vitamin D3 in this clinical setting.

Project description:BackgroundPulmonary exacerbations (PExs) are clinically important in people with cystic fibrosis (CF). Multiple definitions have been used for PEx, and this scoping review aimed to identify the different definitions reported in the literature and to ascertain which signs and symptoms are commonly used to define them.MethodsA search was performed using Embase, MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, Scopus and CINAHL. All publications reporting clinical trials or prospective observational studies involving definitions of PEx in people with CF published in English from January 1990 to December 2022 were included. Data were then extracted for qualitative thematic analysis.ResultsA total of 14 039 records were identified, with 7647 titles and abstracts screened once duplicates were removed, 898 reviewed as full text and 377 meeting the inclusion criteria. Pre-existing definitions were used in 148 publications. In 75% of papers, an objective definition was used, while 25% used a subjective definition, which subcategorised into treatment-based definitions (76%) and those involving clinician judgement (24%). Objective definitions were subcategorised into three groups: those based on a combination of signs and symptoms (50%), those based on a predefined combination of signs and symptoms plus the initiation of acute treatment (47%) and scores involving different clinical features each with a specific weighting (3%). The most common signs and symptoms reported in the definitions were, in order, sputum production, cough, lung function, weight/appetite, dyspnoea, chest X-ray changes, chest sounds, fever, fatigue or lethargy and haemoptysis.ConclusionWe have identified substantial variation in the definitions of PEx in people with CF reported in the literature. There is a requirement for the development of internationally agreed-upon, standardised and validated age-specific definitions. Such definitions would allow comparison between studies and effective meta-analysis to be performed and are especially important in the highly effective modulator therapy era in CF care.

Project description:Adults with cystic fibrosis (CF) frequently harbor Staphylococcus aureus, which is increasingly antibiotic resistant. Telavancin is a once-daily rapidly bactericidal antibiotic active against methicillin-, linezolid-, and ceftaroline-resistant S. aureus Because CF patients experience alterations in pharmacokinetics, the optimal dose of telavancin in this population is unknown. Adult CF patients (n?=?18) admitted for exacerbations received 3 doses of telavancin 7.5?mg/kg of body weight (first 6 patients) or 10?mg/kg (final 12 patients) every 24?h (q24h). Population pharmacokinetic models with and without covariates were fitted using the nonparametric adaptive grid algorithm in Pmetrics. The final model was used to perform 5,000-patient Monte Carlo simulations for multiple telavancin doses. The best fit was a 2-compartment model describing the volume of distribution of the central compartment (Vc ) as a multiple of total body weight (TBW) and the volume of distribution of the central compartment scaled to total body weight (V ?) normalized by the median observed value (Vc ?=?V ??×?TBW/52.1) and total body clearance (CL) as a linear function of creatinine clearance (CRCL) (CL?=?CLNR?+?CL??×?CRCL), where CLNR represents nonrenal clearance and CL? represents the slope term on CRCL to estimate renal clearance. The mean population parameters were as follows: V ?, 4.92? ± 0.76 liters?·?kg-1; CLNR, 0.59? ± 0.30 liters?·?h-1; CL?, 5.97?×?10-3 ± 1.24?×?10-3; Vp (volume of the peripheral compartment), 3.77? ± 1.41 liters; Q (intercompartmental clearance), 4.08? ± 2.17 liters?·?h-1 The free area under the concentration-time curve (fAUC) values for 7.5 and 10?mg/kg were 30? ± 4.6 and 52? ± 12?mg?·?h/liter, respectively. Doses of 7.5?mg/kg and 10?mg/kg achieved 76.5% and 100% probability of target attainment (PTA) at a fAUC/MIC threshold of >215, respectively, for MIC of ?0.12?mg/liter. The probabilities of reaching the acute kidney injury (AKI) threshold AUC (763?mg?·?h?·?liter-1) for these doses were 0% and 0.96%, respectively. No serious adverse events occurred. Telavancin 10?mg/kg yielded optimal PTA and minimal risk of AKI, suggesting that this FDA-approved dose is appropriate to treat acute pulmonary exacerbations in CF adults. (The clinical trial discussed in this study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under identifier NCT03172793.).

Project description:Rationale: Pulmonary exacerbations (PExs) are associated with significant morbidity in people with cystic fibrosis (CF). Severe PExs are treated with intravenous antibiotics, including tobramycin. CF care guidelines recommend continuing chronic maintenance medications during PEx treatment. Azithromycin (AZM) is one of the most widely prescribed chronic medications for CF in the United States. Recent evidence has identified a potential antagonistic relationship between AZM and tobramycin.Objectives: To determine whether, among PEx treated with intravenous tobramycin, concomitant AZM use is associated with worse clinical outcomes.Methods: Retrospective cohort study using the CF Foundation Patient Registry-Pediatric Health Information System (CFFPR-PHIS)-linked dataset. People with CF age 6-21 years were included if they were hospitalized between 2006 and 2016 for a PEx. Inverse probability of treatment weighing was used to minimize the effects of confounders, including indication bias. Associations of concomitant treatment with AZM and lung function outcomes were determined using linear mixed-effect models and generalized estimating equations. Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to evaluate associations with time to next PEx.Results: Among the 10,660 people with CF included in the CFFPR-PHIS-linked dataset, 2,294 children and adolescents with 5,022 PExs that had intravenous tobramycin use were identified. A little less than half (n = 2,247; 45%) of all PExs were treated concomitantly with AZM and intravenous tobramycin. AZM use both at the most recent outpatient clinic encounter and during PEx treatment in combination with intravenous tobramycin was associated with a significantly lower absolute improvement in percentage-predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 second (ppFEV1) (-0.93%; 95% confidence interval [CI], -1.78 to -0.07; P = 0.033), a lesser odds of returning to 90% or more of baseline ppFEV1 (odds ratio, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.68-0.93; P = 0.003), and a shorter time to next PEx requiring intravenous antibiotics (hazard ratio, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.14-1.31; P < 0.001) compared with intravenous tobramycin use without concomitant AZM.Conclusions: Concomitant AZM and intravenous tobramycin use for in-hospital PEx treatment was associated with poorer clinical outcomes than treatment with intravenous tobramycin without AZM. These results support the hypothesis that an antagonistic relationship between these two medications might exist.
