24-Hour Pharmacokinetic Relationships for Vancomycin and Novel Urinary Biomarkers of Acute Kidney Injury.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Vancomycin has been associated with acute kidney injury in preclinical and clinical settings; however, the precise exposure profiles associated with vancomycin-induced acute kidney injury have not been defined. We sought to determine pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamics indices associated with the development of acute kidney injury using sensitive urinary biomarkers. Male Sprague-Dawley rats received clinical-grade vancomycin or normal saline as an intraperitoneal injection. Total daily doses between 0 and 400 mg/kg of body weight were administered as a single dose or 2 divided doses over a 24-h period. At least five rats were utilized for each dosing protocol. A maximum of 8 plasma samples per rat were obtained, and urine was collected over the 24-h period. Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), clusterin, osteopontin, cystatin C, and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin levels were determined using Milliplex multianalyte profiling rat kidney panels. Vancomycin plasma concentrations were determined via a validated high-performance liquid chromatography methodology. Pharmacokinetic analyses were conducted using the Pmetrics package for R. Bayesian maximal a posteriori concentrations were generated and utilized to calculate the 24-h area under the concentration-time curve (AUC), the maximum concentration (Cmax), and the minimum concentration. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (rs ) was used to assess the correlations between exposure parameters, biomarkers, and histopathological damage. Forty-seven rats contributed pharmacokinetic and toxicodynamic data. KIM-1 was the only urinary biomarker that correlated with both composite histopathological damage (rs = 0.348, P = 0.017) and proximal tubule damage (rs = 0.342, P = 0.019). The vancomycin AUC and Cmax were most predictive of increases in KIM-1 levels (rs = 0.438 and P = 0.002 for AUC and rs = 0.451 and P = 0.002 for Cmax). Novel urinary biomarkers demonstrate that kidney injury can occur within 24 h of vancomycin exposure as a function of either AUC or Cmax.
