In Vivo Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Profiles of Danofloxacin in Rabbits Infected With Salmonella typhimurium After Oral Administration.

ABSTRACT: Salmonella typhimurium is a highly transmissible pathogen in rabbits that causes significant losses. Danofloxacin shows excellent efficacy against S. typhimurium infections. However, there are few reports of the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) modeling of danofloxacin against this pathogen. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vivo PK/PD relationship of danofloxacin in rabbits infected with S. typhimurium. We used the reduction of bacterial burden in the blood, liver, spleen, and lung as the target PD endpoints, and determined the PK/PD indexes that best correlated with the efficacy and its corresponding magnitude. Danofloxacin was administrated orally to experimentally S. typhimurium-infected rabbits once daily for three successive days. The concentrations of danofloxacin in the serum and the bacterial burden in the blood, liver, spleen, and lung were determined. The PK/PD relationships of danofloxacin against S. typhimurium were evaluated using a Sigmoid Emax model. The results showed that the area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h/minimum inhibitory concentration (AUC24 h/MIC) ratio correlated well with the in vivo antibacterial effectiveness in different organs, with an r2 of 0.8971, 0.9186, 0.9581, and 0.8708 in the blood, liver, spleen, and lung, respectively. The AUC24 h/MIC ratios for the bactericidal effect (3 × Log10 colony forming units/mL reductions) were 121.30, 354.28, 216.64, and 228.66 in the blood, liver, spleen, and lung, respectively, indicating that the in vivo effectiveness of danofloxacin against S. typhimurium using bacterial reduction in different organs as PD endpoints was not identical. This study illustrated that the selection of the target organ for bacterial reduction determination had little effect on best PK/PD parameter determination, but is critical for parameter magnitude calculation in antimicrobial PK/PD modeling, and furthermore, has an impact on the rational dosage optimization process.

Project description:Huang-Lian-Jie-Du Decoction (HLJDD) is a classical Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) formula with heat-dissipating and detoxifying effects. It is used to treat inflammation-associated diseases. However, no systematic pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) data concerning the activity of HLJDD under inflammatory conditions is available to date. In the present study, the concentration-time profiles and the hepatic clearance rates (HCR) of 41 major components in rat plasma in response to the oral administration of a clinical dose of HLJDD were investigated by LC-QqQ-MS using a dynamic multiple reaction monitoring (DMRM) method. Additionally, the levels of 7 cytokines (CKs) in the plasma and the body temperature of rats were analyzed. Furthermore, a PK-PD model was established to describe the time course of the hemodynamic and anti-inflammatory effects of HLJDD. As one of the three major active constituents in HLJDD, iridoids were absorbed and eliminated more easily and quickly than alkaloids and flavonoids. Compared with the normal controls, the flavonoids, alkaloids and iridoids in inflamed rats exhibited consistently changing trends of PK behaviors, such as higher bioavailability, slower elimination, delays in reaching the maximum concentration (Tmax) and longer substantivity. The HCR of iridoids was different from that of alkaloids and flavonoids in inflamed rats. Furthermore, excellent pharmacodynamic effects of HLJDD were observed in inflamed rats. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?), interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1?, IL-10, and macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) and body temperature significantly decreased after the administration of HLJDD. Based on PK-PD modeling with the three-phase synchronous characterization of time-concentration-effect, flavonoids exhibited one mechanism of action in the anti-inflammatory process, while iridoids and alkaloids showed another mechanism of action. Taken together, the results demonstrated that HLJDD may restrain inflammation synergistically via its major constituents (alkaloids, flavonoids and iridoids). A correlation between the exposure concentration of different types of compounds and their anti-inflammatory effects in the body was shown. This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the anti-inflammatory activity of HLJDD.

Project description:BackgroundDexmedetomidine is only approved for use in humans as an intravenous medication. An oral formulation may broaden the use and benefits of dexmedetomidine to numerous care settings. The authors hypothesized that oral dexmedetomidine (300 mcg to 700 mcg) would result in plasma concentrations consistent with sedation while maintaining hemodynamic stability.MethodsThe authors performed a single-site, open-label, phase I dose-escalation study of a solid oral dosage formulation of dexmedetomidine in healthy volunteers (n = 5, 300 mcg; followed by n = 5, 500 mcg; followed by n = 5, 700 mcg). The primary study outcome was hemodynamic stability defined as lack of hypertension, hypotension, or bradycardia. The authors assessed this outcome by analyzing raw hemodynamic data. Plasma dexmedetomidine concentrations were determined by liquid chromatograph-tandem mass spectrometry. Nonlinear mixed effect models were used for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses.ResultsOral dexmedetomidine was associated with plasma concentration-dependent decreases in heart rate and mean arterial pressure. All but one subject in the 500-mcg group met our criteria for hemodynamic stability. The plasma concentration profile was adequately described by a 2-compartment, weight allometric, first-order absorption, first-order elimination pharmacokinetic model. The standardized estimated parameters for an individual of 70 kg was V1 = 35.6 [95% CI, 23.8 to 52.8] l; V2 = 54.7 [34.2 to 81.7] l; CL = 0.56 [0.49 to 0.64] l/min; and F = 7.2 [4.7 to 14.4]%. Linear models with effect sites adequately described the decreases in mean arterial pressure and heart rate associated with oral dexmedetomidine administration. However, only the 700-mcg group reached plasma concentrations that have previously been associated with sedation (>0.2 ng/ml).ConclusionsOral administration of dexmedetomidine in doses between 300 and 700 mcg was associated with decreases in heart rate and mean arterial pressure. Despite low oral absorption, the 700-mcg dose scheme reached clinically relevant concentrations for possible use as a sleep-enhancing medication.Editor’s perspective
