Two-pore physiologically based pharmacokinetic model with de novo derived parameters for predicting plasma PK of different size protein therapeutics.

ABSTRACT: Two-pore PBPK models have been used for characterizing the PK of protein therapeutics since 1990s. However, widespread utilization of these models is hampered by the lack of a priori parameter values, which are typically estimated using the observed data. To overcome this hurdle, here we have presented the development of a two-pore PBPK model using de novo derived parameters. The PBPK model was validated using plasma PK data for different size proteins in mice. Using the "two pore theory" we were able to establish the relationship between protein size and key model parameters, such as: permeability-surface area product (PS), vascular reflection coefficient (?), peclet number (Pe), and glomerular sieving coefficient (?). The model accounted for size dependent changes in tissue extravasation and glomerular filtration. The model was able to a priori predict the PK of 8 different proteins: IgG (150 kDa), scFv-Fc (105 kDa), F(ab)2 (100 kDa, minibody (80 kDa), scFv2 (55 kDa), Fab (50 kDa), diabody (50 kDa), scFv (27 kDa), and nanobody (13 kDa). In addition, the model was able to provide unprecedented quantitative insight into the relative contribution of convective and diffusive pathway towards trans-capillary mass transportation of different size proteins. The two-pore PBPK model was also able to predict systemic clearance (CL) versus Molecular Weight relationship for different size proteins reasonably well. As such, the PBPK model proposed here represents a bottom-up systems PK model for protein therapeutics, which can serve as a generalized platform for the development of truly translational PBPK model for protein therapeutics.

Project description:Long-acting (LA) administration using a subcutaneous (s.c.) implant presents opportunities to simplify administration of antiretroviral drugs, improve pharmacological profiles, and overcome suboptimal adherence associated with daily oral formulations. Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) is a highly potent nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) and an attractive agent for LA delivery, with a high potency and long intracellular half-life. The aim of this study was to predict minimum TAF doses required to achieve concentrations effective for HIV preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Daily drug release requirements were then ascertained by averaging across the dosing interval. A TAF physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was developed and partially qualified against available oral single- and multiple-dose pharmacokinetics. The models were assumed to be qualified when simulated values were within 2-fold of the observed mean. TAF s.c. implants were simulated in five hundred individuals, reporting predicted TAF plasma and tenofovir (TFV) plasma concentrations for various release rates. Intracellular TFV diphosphate (TFV-DP) concentrations were also simulated in peripheral blood cells and cervical and rectal tissues. The minimum dose predicted to achieve intracellular TFV-DP levels above a target concentration of 48 fmol/106 cells for a month was identified. TAF, TFV, and TFV-DP concentrations for release rates between 1.0 and 1.6 mg/day were simulated. The PBPK model indicated that a minimum release of 1.4 mg/day TAF is necessary to achieve TFV-DP concentrations above the identified target in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). TFV-DP cervical and rectal tissue concentrations were predicted to be between 1.5 and 2.0 fmol/106 cells and 0.9 and 1.1 fmol/106 cells, respectively, for release rates between 1.3 and 1.6 mg/day. These simulations provide target minimum doses for LA TAF PrEP in humans. Based on the generated results, multiple implants delivering a total of 1.4 mg/day of TAF subcutaneously could provide protection levels for approximately 6 months to 1 year. This modeling may inform future design of s.c. implants to mitigate adherence issues for effective PrEP applications.
