Increased Exposure of Tacrolimus by Co-administered Mycophenolate Mofetil: Population Pharmacokinetic Analysis in Healthy Volunteers.

ABSTRACT: The objective of the study was to investigate the pharmacokinetic drug-drug interactions between tacrolimus (TAC) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) in healthy Korean male volunteers. Seventeen volunteers participated in a three-period, single-dose, and fixed sequence study. They sequentially received MMF, TAC, and the combination. Concentrations of TAC, mycophenolic acid (MPA), and its metabolites MPA 7-O-glucuronide and MPA acyl glucuronide were measured. The variants of CYP3A4, CYP3A5, SLCO1B1, SLCO1B3, ABCC2, UGT1A9, and UGT2B7 were genotyped. Drug interaction was evaluated with a non-compartmental analysis and population pharmacokinetic modelling to quantify the interaction effect. A total of 1,082 concentrations of those analytes were analysed. AUC0-inf of TAC increased by 22.1% (322.4?±?174.1 to 393.6?±?121.7?ng·h/mL; P?

Systematic external evaluation of published population pharmacokinetic models of mycophenolate mofetil in adult kidney transplant recipients co-administered with tacrolimus.

Project description:AimsVarious mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) population pharmacokinetic (popPK) models have been developed to describe its PK characteristics and facilitate its optimal dosing in adult kidney transplant recipients co-administered with tacrolimus. However, the external predictive performance has been unclear. Thus, this study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the external predictability of published MMF popPK models in such populations and investigate the potential influencing factors.MethodsThe external predictability of qualified popPK models was evaluated using an independent dataset. The evaluation included prediction- and simulation-based diagnostics, and Bayesian forecasting. In addition, factors influencing model predictability, especially the impact of structural models, were investigated.ResultsFifty full PK profiles from 45 patients were included in the evaluation dataset and 11 published popPK models were identified and evaluated. In prediction-based diagnostics, the prediction error within ±30% was less than 50% in most published models. The prediction- and variability-corrected visual predictive check and posterior predictive check showed large discrepancies between the observations and simulations in most models. Moreover, the normalized prediction distribution errors of all models did not follow a normal distribution. Bayesian forecasting demonstrated an improvement in the model predictability. Furthermore, the predictive performance of two-compartment (2CMT) models incorporating the enterohepatic circulation (EHC) process was not superior to that of conventional 2CMT models.ConclusionsThe published models showed large variability and unsatisfactory predictive performance, which indicated that therapeutic drug monitoring was necessary for MMF clinical application. Further studies incorporating potential covariates need to be conducted to investigate the key factors influencing model predictability of MMF.

Rectal and sublingual administration of tacrolimus: a single-dose pharmacokinetic study in healthy volunteers.

Project description:AimsThe immunosuppressant tacrolimus is usually administered orally. When this is not feasible, other routes of administration may be useful. Previous research suggested that tacrolimus may be applied sublingually or rectally. Pharmacokinetic data are sparse. The aim of this study was to investigate and compare the pharmacokinetics of these alternative formulations with orally administered tacrolimus.MethodsThree single, fixed-dose formulations of tacrolimus were administered in a random sequence in 18 healthy subjects, using a cross-over study design. For sublingual administration, 3 mg of powder obtained from oral capsules was applied under the tongue for a period of 15 min without swallowing, with mouth rinsing afterwards. For rectal administration, a suppository containing 15 mg of the oral powder was used. Oral administration consisted of 7 mg of instant-release tacrolimus capsules (Prograf). Main pharmacokinetic outcome parameters were compared by anova.ResultsSublingual administration showed no clinically significant exposure, contrary to rectal administration, where all subjects had clinically relevant exposure, with a lower relative bioavailability (78%), a lower maximal blood concentration and a later time of maximal blood concentration compared with oral administration.ConclusionsSublingual administration of a single dose of tacrolimus does not result in systemic exposure if care is taken not to swallow saliva and to rinse the oral cavity afterwards. Rectal administration of tacrolimus results in clinically relevant systemic exposure and might represent an alternative formulation in case oral administration is not feasible. When used as a topical agent, systemic side-effects should be considered.

Comparative pharmacokinetic study of two mycophenolate mofetil formulations in stable kidney transplant recipients.

Project description:We compared steady-state pharmacokinetics of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) - Myfenax(®) (Teva) and CellCept(®) (Roche) - in stable kidney transplant recipients (KTRs). This was an international, multi-centre, randomized, open-label, two-treatment, two-sequence crossover study with a 3-month follow-up. We included KTRs at least 12 months post-transplantation with stable renal graft function for at least 3 months. The maintenance treatment consisted of MMF in combination with tacrolimus with or without steroids. At the end of the two treatment periods, 6-h or 12-h PK studies of mycophenolic acid (MPA) were performed. A total of 43 patients (mean age: 50.7 ± 13.5 years; 19 females, 24 males) were randomized. Estimates of test to reference ratios (90% CIs) were 0.959 (0.899; 1.023) h*μg/ml for AUC((0-tau)) and 0.873 (0.787; 0.968) μg/ml for C(max). Estimates for AUC((0-6h)) were 0.923 (0.865; 0.984) h*μg/ml and 0.985 (0.877; 1.106) μg/ml for C(min). Thus, AUC((0-tau)), AUC((0-6h)), and C(min) of MPA were within the predefined margins. C(max) was somewhat outside of these margins in this set of patients. The numbers and types of adverse events were not different between the two treatments. The steady-state pharmacokinetics of MPA as well as adverse events are comparable for Myfenax(®) and CellCept(®) in tacrolimus-treated stable KTRs.

Effects of ASKP1240 combined with tacrolimus or mycophenolate mofetil on renal allograft survival in Cynomolgus monkeys.

Project description:BackgroundBlocking the CD40-CD154 signal pathway has previously shown promise as a strategy to prevent allograft rejection. In this study, the efficacy of a novel fully human anti-CD40 monoclonal antibody-ASKP1240, administered as a monotherapy or combination therapy (subtherapeutic dose of tacrolimus or mycophenolate mofetil), on the prevention of renal allograft rejection was evaluated in Cynomolgus monkeys.MethodsHeterotopic kidney transplants were performed in ABO-compatible, stimulation index 2.5 or higher in the two-way mixed lymphocyte reaction monkey pairs. Animals were divided into 12 groups and observed for a maximum of 180 days. Histopathologic, hematology, and biochemistry analyses were conducted in all groups. Cytokine release (interleukin [IL]-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor, and interferon-γ) was investigated in several groups.ResultsASKP1240 prolonged renal allograft survival in a dose-dependent manner in monotherapy. Low-dose (2 mg/kg) or high-dose (5 mg/kg) ASKP1240, in combination with mycophenolate mofetil (15 mg/kg) or tacrolimus (1 mg/kg), showed a significantly longer allograft survival time compared with monotherapy groups. No obvious side effects including drug-related thromboembolic complications were found. Cytokine release was not induced by ASKP1240 administration.ConclusionThe present study indicates that ASKP1240, alone or in combination with other immunosuppressive drugs, could be a promising antirejection agent in organ transplantation.

Efficacy of mycophenolate mofetil in sarcoidosis.

Project description:Immunosuppressive (IS) therapy is indicated to treat progressive sarcoidosis, but randomized controlled trials to guide physicians in the use of steroid sparing agents are lacking. The aim of this retrospective study was to examine the role of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) as an alternative therapy in the treatment of sarcoidosis.A retrospective chart review of all patients who had been prescribed MMF between January 2008 and October 2011 was conducted. Patients with insufficient data or who had another IS therapy initiated concomitantly with MMF, including prednisone, were excluded. Physiological data obtained at the time MMF therapy was initiated as well as six and twelve months before and after therapy was extracted. Longitudinal analyses of the effect of MMF on changes in pulmonary function at MMF start, 6 months, 12 months pre and post MMF therapy were conducted.37/76 patients met our inclusion/exclusion criteria. There were no statistically significant changes in PFT measurements pre and post MMF therapy. We did find a trend (p = 0.07) towards improvement in DLCO 12 months pre and post MMF in patients who were started on MMF due to intolerance to previous IS therapy compared to those who were unresponsive to their previous IS therapy. We also noted a reduction in prednisone dose in those treated with MMF.MMF appears to offer no extra benefit to sarcoidosis patients unresponsive to previous steroid-sparing agents, but may be beneficial in patients intolerant to their previous steroid-sparing agent. Additional studies investigating the efficacy of MMF as the initial steroid-sparing agent are needed to further clarify the role of MMF in sarcoidosis.

Mycophenolate mofetil for ocular inflammation.

Project description:PurposeTo evaluate mycophenolate mofetil as a single noncorticosteroid immunosuppressive treatment for noninfectious ocular inflammatory diseases.DesignRetrospective cohort study.MethodsCharacteristics of patients with noninfectious ocular inflammation treated with mycophenolate mofetil at 4 subspecialty clinics from 1995 to 2007 were abstracted by expert reviewers in a standardized chart review of every eye at every visit. Main outcomes measured were control of inflammation, corticosteroid-sparing effects, and discontinuation of mycophenolate mofetil (including the reasons for discontinuation). Survival analysis was used to estimate the incidence of outcomes, and to identify risk factors for each.ResultsAmong 236 patients (397 eyes) treated with mycophenolate mofetil monotherapy, 20.3%, 11.9%, and 39.8% had anterior uveitis, intermediate uveitis, and posterior uveitis or panuveitis respectively; 14% had scleritis; 7.6% had mucous membrane pemphigoid; and 6.4% had other ocular inflammatory diseases. By Kaplan-Meier estimation, complete control of inflammation--sustained over consecutive visits spanning at least 28 days--was achieved in 53% and 73% of patients within 6 months and 1 year respectively. Systemic corticosteroid dosage was reduced to 10 mg of prednisone or less, while maintaining sustained control of inflammation, in 41% and 55% of patients in 6 months and 1 year respectively. Twelve percent of patients discontinued mycophenolate mofetil within the first year because of side effects of therapy.ConclusionsGiven sufficient time, mycophenolate mofetil was effective in managing ocular inflammation in approximately half of the treated patients. Treatment-limiting side effects were observed in 12% of patients and typically were reversible.

Phase II Study of Myeloablative 7-8/8-Matched Allotransplantation with Post-Transplantation Cyclophosphamide, Tacrolimus, and Mycophenolate Mofetil.

Project description:Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is the major toxicity of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). We hypothesized that a GVHD prophylaxis regimen of post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy), tacrolimus (Tac), and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) would be associated with incidences of acute and chronic GVHD in patients receiving a matched or single antigen mismatched HCT. This Phase II study was conducted at the University of Minnesota using a myeloablative regimen of either total body irradiation (TBI) at a total dose of 1320 cGy, administered in 165-cGy fractions, twice daily from day -4 to day -1, or busulfan (Bu) 3.2 mg/kg daily (cumulative area under the curve, 19,000 to 21,000 μmol/min/L) plus fludarabine (Flu) 40 mg/m2 once daily on days -5 to -2, followed by a GVHD prophylaxis regimen of PTCy 50 mg/kg on days +3 and +4, Tac, and MMF beginning on day +5. The primary endpoint was the cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD necessitating systemic immunosuppression (IST) at 1 year post-transplantation. Between March 2018 and May 2022, we enrolled 125 pediatric and adult patients, with a median follow-up of 813 days. The incidence of chronic GVHD necessitating systemic IST at 1 year was 5.5%. The rate of grade II-IV acute GVHD was 17.1%, and that of grade III-IV acute GVHD was 5.5%. Two-year overall survival was 73.7%, and 2-year graft-versus-host disease-free, relapse-free survival was 52.2%. The 2-year cumulative incidence of nonrelapse mortality was 10.2%, and the rate of relapse was 39.1%. There was no statistically significant difference in survival outcomes between recipients of matched donor transplants versus recipients of 7/8 matched donor transplants. Our data show that myeloablative HCT with PTCy/Tac/MMF results in an extremely low incidence of severe acute and chronic GVHD in well-matched allogeneic HCT.

Systemic sclerosis skin disease trajectory during mycophenolate mofetil treatment

Project description:Background: Only a subset of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) demonstrate improvement in modified Rodnan skin score (mRSS) during mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) treatment. Here we investigated the molecular and cellular effects in skin associated with MMF therapy in subjects who demonstrated or lacked clinical improvement. Methods: Clinical and skin gene expression data were obtained genome-wide from baseline and longitudinal (6-, 12-, 24-, and 36-mo) biopsies in 33 MMF-treated subjects with SSc. Clinical improvement was defined as mRSS reduction ≥ 25%. An inflammatory signature score was calculated for each patient sample using single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA). Cell type specific changes during treatment were characterized. Results: Eleven subjects with SSc completed at least 24 months of MMF therapy and were termed ‘completers’. Two distinct gene expression patterns were observed that corresponded to MMF treatment status. Three subjects showed attenuation of the inflammatory signature by 24 months, paralleling reductions in activated dendritic cells. MMF cessation at 24 months resulted in an inflammatory signature rebound paralleling mRSS increase. Three subjects that remained on MMF showed persistent inflammatory signature reductions with decreasing or stable mRSS. The remaining six completers either did not fulfill minimum mRSS (n=5), and/or lacked a baseline inflammatory signature (n=4). Conclusions: An elevated inflammatory skin gene expression signature is associated with clinical improvement during MMF therapy. Inflammation returned upon MMF discontinuation with concomitant mRSS increase. These data summarize MMF’s molecular effects in skin and support MMF therapy for longer than 24 months in patients who demonstrate clinical response.

Pharmacokinetics and tolerability of multiple-day oral dosing of mycophenolate mofetil in healthy horses.

Project description:BackgroundAdditional efficacious immunomodulatory treatment is needed for the management of immune-mediated disease in horses. Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) is an immunosuppressive drug that warrants assessment as a viable therapeutic agent for horses.Hypothesis/objectivesTo evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple-day oral dosing of MMF in healthy horses and to determine the tolerability of this dosing regimen.AnimalsSix healthy Standardbred mares.MethodsHorses received MMF 10 mg/kg PO q12h for 7 days in the fed state. Serial sampling was performed over 12 hours on Days 1 and 7 with trough samples collected every 24 hours, immediately before morning drug administration. Noncompartmental PK analyses were performed to determine primary PK parameters, followed by calculation of geometric means and coefficients of variation. A CBC, serum biochemical profile, physical examination, and fecal scoring were used to assess dose tolerability.ResultsSeven days of treatment resulted in a mycophenolic acid (MPA) area under the curve (AUC0-12 ) of 12 594 h × ng/mL (8567-19 488 h × ng/mL) and terminal half-life (T1/2 ) of 11.3 hours (7.5-15.9 hours), yielding minor metabolite accumulation in all horses treated. Salmonellosis was detected in the feces of 2 horses by Day 7, and all horses developed myelosuppression, hyperbilirubinemia, hyporexia, decreased gastrointestinal motility, and decreased fecal output by the seventh day of treatment.Conclusion and clinical importanceAdministration of MMF at 10 mg/kg PO q12h resulted in hematologic and clinical toxicity within 1 week of treatment. A decreased MMF dose, frequency, or both is needed to avoid colic. Drug monitoring should include frequent hemograms, serum biochemical profiles, and strict biosecurity protocols.
