Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Tolerability of Cefiderocol, a Novel Siderophore Cephalosporin for Gram-Negative Bacteria, in Healthy Subjects.

ABSTRACT: Cefiderocol is a novel parenteral siderophore cephalosporin that shows potent efficacy against various Gram-negative bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant strains, in vitro and in preclinical models of infection. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of cefiderocol after both single and multiple dosing by intravenous infusion over 60 min in healthy adult subjects. A single-ascending-dose study at doses of 100, 250, 500, 1,000, and 2,000 mg was conducted in 40 healthy Japanese males and females (6 individuals receiving the active drug and 2 individuals receiving a placebo per cohort). A multiple-ascending-dose study at doses of 1,000 (two groups) and 2,000 mg every 8 h (q8h) was conducted in 30 healthy Japanese and Caucasian males (8 individuals receiving the active drug and 2 individuals receiving a placebo per cohort). There were no serious or clinically significant adverse events (AEs) observed in either study. A single subject receiving 1,000 mg cefiderocol q8h was withdrawn due to AEs. Dose-proportional increases in the maximum plasma concentration (C_max), the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) from time zero to the time of the last quantifiable concentration after dosing, and the area under the concentration-time curve extrapolated from time zero to infinity were observed across the dose range of 100 to 2,000 mg. The mean plasma half-life of cefiderocol was 1.98 to 2.74 h. Cefiderocol was primarily excreted unchanged in the urine (61.5% to 68.4% of the dose). There was little accumulation of C_max and AUC by dosing q8h, and the PK of cefiderocol did not change with multiple dosing. This study indicates that single and multiple intravenous doses of cefiderocol at up to 2,000 mg are well tolerated in healthy subjects and exhibit linear PK at doses up to 2,000 mg.

Project description:ObjectivesMany carbapenem-resistant (CR) Gram-negative (GN) pathogens exhibit MDR, meaning few therapeutic options are available for CR-GN infections. Cefiderocol, a siderophore cephalosporin, has demonstrated in vitro efficacy against CR-GN bacteria. In the SIDERO-CR-2014-2016 surveillance study, European clinical isolates comprising carbapenem-non-susceptible (CarbNS) Enterobacterales and MDR non-fermenters were tested against cefiderocol and comparators.MethodsCefiderocol MICs were determined using iron-depleted CAMHB, and comparators using CAMHB, per recommended CLSI methodology. Carbapenemase gene profiles were determined using PCR.ResultsIsolates (N = 870) from 23 European countries comprised CarbNS Enterobacterales (n = 457), MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n = 177) and MDR Acinetobacter baumannii (n = 236). The most common carbapenemases were KPC (52%), OXA-48-like (19%), VIM (14%) and NDM (8%) in Enterobacterales, VIM (41%) in P. aeruginosa and OXA-23-like (57%) and OXA-24/40-like (37%) in A. baumannii. Most carbapenemase-producing isolates (65%) co-carried ESBLs. Approximately half of P. aeruginosa isolates were negative for carbapenemases, compared with 10% of Enterobacterales and 3% of A. baumannii. A similar proportion of Enterobacterales were susceptible to cefiderocol (81.6%; 79.0% of VIM producers; 51.4% of NDM producers; based on EUCAST breakpoint values) compared with comparator antimicrobial agents, including colistin (76.4%; 93.5% of VIM producers; 78.4% of NDM producers) and ceftazidime/avibactam (76.6%; 1.6% of VIM producers; 2.7% of NDM producers). Of P. aeruginosa isolates, 98.3% were susceptible to cefiderocol (100% of VIM producers), similar to colistin (100%). Against A. baumannii, 94.9% had cefiderocol MIC ≤2 mg/L and 93.6% of isolates were susceptible to colistin.ConclusionsCefiderocol demonstrated potent activity against CarbNS and MDR GN bacteria, including non-fermenters and a wide variety of MBL- and serine-β-lactamase-producing strains.

Project description:Abstract Background Cefiderocol (CFDC) is the first siderophore cephalosporin approved (US and EU) for a broad range of infections caused by Gram-negative (GN) bacteria, including carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (ENT) and non-fermenters (NFs). Bacteremia is a serious manifestation of GN infection and understanding how well an antibiotic works to clear the bacteremia is an important part of drug evaluation. Methods All completed clinical studies for CFDC development were used to identify patients with GN bacteremia. Information collected included the primary infection site, species identification and antibiotic susceptibility, post randomization blood cultures and clinical and bacteremia outcome. In patients with missing data (blood cultures) clinical response of cure was used to impute microbiological eradication. Indeterminate responses resulted from a combination of missing data and clinical failure, including death prior to test of cure (TOC). Results Three clinical studies randomized 900 patients (CFDC 552; comparators 348) of whom 84 (CFDC 52; comparators 32) had GN bacteremia at baseline (Table). Bacteremia rate by study was CREDIBLE-CR 25.3%, APEKS-cUTI 6.2%, APEKS-NP 6.0%. Escherichia coli (29), Klebsiella pneumoniae (23) and Acinetobacter spp (21) were most frequent species. Sources included urinary tract (31), lung (22), unknown (10), IV line (8), intraabdominal (6), or other (7). Persistence of bacteremia at TOC was seen in 2/52 (3.8%) CFDC and 2/32 (6.2%) control patients (Table), usually due to lack of source control. Clinical outcomes varied by study and infection source and were often confounded (indeterminate response). Eradication in patients with ENT at TOC was determined for 27/39 (69%) for CFDC and 16/23 (70%) for controls, and for 9/16 (56%) for CFDC and 10/11 (91%) for controls in patients with NFs, respectively. Table. Clinical and bacteremia microbiological outcomes per patient at TOC. Conclusion Post-treatment negative blood cultures were inconsistently collected, especially in APEKS-NP and -cUTI, however, negative blood cultures on therapy without recurrence was seen in 96% of CFDC patients with sufficient information. A dedicated clinical trial in GN bacteremia (GAME CHANGER; NCT03869437) is ongoing and will better delineate microbiological outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundMigraine is one of the most common headache disorders that greatly affect the quality of life. Selective serotonin (5-HT) receptor agonists such as triptamine-based drugs called triptans are used for treatment of migraine.PurposeThis study aimed to evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) and tolerability profiles of eletriptan hydrobromide (eletriptan HBr), a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine (also known as serotonin) 1B/1D receptor agonist, in Koreans and compare the results to those observed in non-Koreans in a previously published study.Patients and methodsA randomized, open-label, single, and repeated-dose study was conducted in 16 healthy Korean male subjects using a four-treatment, four-period, and four-sequence crossover design (NCT01139515). The subjects received one of the following four treatments in each period: a single dose of 20, 40, 80 mg eletriptan HBr or a repeated oral dose of 40 mg 2 h apart. Blood samples were collected before and up to 26 h after dosing for quantification of plasma eletriptan concentration by high-performance liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry. The PK parameters were estimated using noncompartmental methods. Ethnicity differences between Korean and non-Korean subjects were identified using geometric mean ratios and 90% confidence intervals (CIs) of dose-normalized maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and dose-normalized area under the plasma concentration versus time curve from 0 h to the last measurable concentration (AUC0-t).ResultsAfter single-dose administration of eletriptan HBr to Korean subjects, the mean Cmax and AUC0-t increased linearly with dose. Comparable total systemic exposures were observed in the 2 h apart 40 mg repeated and single 80 mg dose. The geometric mean ratios (90% CIs) of the dose-normalized Cmax and AUC0-t of Korean subjects were similar to those of non-Korean subjects reported in the literature. The adverse events observed were transient and mild in severity.ConclusionEletriptan HBr showed linear PK and was well tolerated in Korean subjects. The PK and tolerability of eletriptan HBr did not differ between Korean and non-Korean subjects.
