Intrapulmonary Pharmacokinetics of Relebactam, a Novel β-Lactamase Inhibitor, Dosed in Combination with Imipenem-Cilastatin in Healthy Subjects.

ABSTRACT: This phase I study assessed the intrapulmonary pharmacokinetic profiles of relebactam (MK-7655), a novel β-lactamase inhibitor, and imipenem. Sixteen healthy subjects received 250 mg relebactam with 500 mg imipenem-cilastatin, given intravenously every 6 h for 5 doses, and were randomized to bronchoscopy/bronchoalveolar lavage at 0.5, 1, 1.5, or 3 h after the last dose (4 subjects per time point). Both drugs penetrated the epithelial lining fluid (ELF) to a similar degree, with the profiles being similar in shape to the corresponding plasma profiles and with the apparent terminal half-lives in plasma and ELF being 1.2 and 1.3 h, respectively, for relebactam and 1.0 h in both compartments for imipenem. The exposure (area under the concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity) in ELF relative to that in plasma was 54% for relebactam and 55% for imipenem, after adjusting for protein binding. ELF penetration for relebactam was further analyzed by fitting the data to a two-compartment pharmacokinetic model to capture its behavior in plasma, with a partitioning coefficient capturing its behavior in the lung compartment. In this model, the time-invariant partition coefficient for relebactam was found to be 55%, based on free drug levels. These results support the clinical evaluation of relebactam with imipenem-cilastatin for the treatment of bacterial pneumonia.

Project description:The RESTORE-IMI 1 phase 3 trial demonstrated the efficacy and safety of imipenem-cilastatin (IMI) combined with relebactam (REL) for treating imipenem-nonsusceptible infections. The objective of this analysis was to compare the outcomes among patients meeting eligibility requirements based on central laboratory susceptibility versus local laboratory susceptibility. Patients with serious infections caused by imipenem-nonsusceptible, colistin-susceptible, and imipenem-REL-susceptible pathogens were randomized 2:1 to IMI-REL plus placebo or colistin plus IMI for 5 to 21 days. The primary endpoint was a favorable overall response. Key endpoints included the clinical response and all-cause mortality. We compared outcomes between the primary microbiological modified intent-to-treat (mMITT) population, where eligibility was based on central laboratory susceptibility testing, and the supplemental mMITT (SmMITT) population, where eligibility was based on local, site-level testing. The SmMITT (n = 41) and MITT (n = 31) populations had similar baseline characteristics, including sex, age, illness severity, and renal function. In both analysis populations, favorable overall response rates in the IMI-REL treatment group were >70%. Favorable clinical response rates at day 28 were 71.4% for IMI-REL and 40.0% for colistin plus IMI in the mMITT population, whereas they were 75.0% for IMI-REL and 53.8% for colistin plus IMI in the SmMITT population. Day 28 all-cause mortality rates were 9.5% for IMI-REL and 30.0% for colistin plus IMI in the mMITT population, whereas they were 10.7% for IMI-REL and 23.1% for colistin plus IMI in the SmMITT population. The outcomes in the SmMITT population were generally consistent with those in the mMITT population, suggesting that outcomes may be applicable to the real-world use of IMI-REL for treating infections caused by imipenem-nonsusceptible Gram-negative pathogens.

Project description:Alalevonadifloxacin (WCK 2349) is a novel l-alanine ester prodrug of levonadifloxacin that is being developed as an oral fluoroquinolone antibiotic. The primary objective of this study was to determine and compare plasma, epithelial lining fluid (ELF), and alveolar macrophage (AM) concentrations of levonadifloxacin following oral administration of alalevonadifloxacin to healthy adult subjects. Levonadifloxacin concentrations in plasma, ELF, and AM samples from 30 healthy subjects were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) following oral dosing of alalevonadifloxacin (1,000 mg twice daily for 5 days). Six subjects were assigned to each bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid sampling time, i.e., 2, 4, 6, 8, or 12 h after the ninth oral dose. Noncompartmental pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were determined from serial total plasma concentrations collected over a 12-h interval following the first and ninth oral doses. Penetration ratios were calculated from the areas under the concentration-time curves from 0 to 12 h (AUC0-12) for plasma, ELF, and AM by using mean (and median) concentrations at each BAL sampling time. Unbound plasma concentrations (∼85% plasma protein binding) were used to determine site-to-plasma penetration ratios. Plasma PK parameter values for levonadifloxacin were similar after the first and ninth doses. The respective AUC0-12 values based on mean ELF and AM concentrations were 172.6 and 35.3 mg · h/liter, respectively. The penetration ratios for ELF and AM levonadifloxacin concentrations to unbound plasma levonadifloxacin concentrations were 7.66 and 1.58, respectively. Similar penetration ratios were observed with median concentrations. The observed plasma, ELF, and AM concentrations of levonadifloxacin support further studies of alalevonadifloxacin for treatment of lower respiratory tract bacterial infections caused by susceptible pathogens. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under identifier NCT02253342.).
