Redox Imbalance and Oxidative DNA Damage During Isoniazid Treatment of HIV-Associated Tuberculosis: A Clinical and Translational Pharmacokinetic Study.

ABSTRACT: Background:The potential for hepatotoxicity during isoniazid-based tuberculosis (TB) treatment presents a major challenge for TB control programs worldwide. We sought to determine whether pharmacokinetic exposures of isoniazid and its metabolites were related to cellular oxidation/reduction status and downstream markers of oxidative DNA damage. Methods:We performed intensive pharmacokinetic sampling among isoniazid-treated patients to determine the relative plasma exposures of isoniazid, acetylisoniazid, hydrazine, and acetylhydrazine. Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modeling was used to estimate liver tissue exposures during a 24-h dosing interval for each compound. We experimentally treated HepG2 cells with isoniazid and metabolites at equimolar concentrations corresponding to these exposures for 7, 14, and 28-day periods, and performed assays related to redox imbalance and oxidative DNA damage at each timepoint. We related a urine marker of oxidative DNA damage to serum isoniazid pharmacokinetic exposures and pharmacogenetics in a clinical study. Results:Among isoniazid-treated patients, serum concentrations of hydrazine and isoniazid concentrations were highly correlated. At equimolar concentrations that approximated hepatic tissue exposures during a 24-h dosing interval, hydrazine demonstrated the highest levels of redox imbalance, mitochondrial injury, and oxidative DNA damage over a 28-day treatment period. In a clinical validation study of isoniazid-treated TB patients, peak isoniazid serum concentrations were positively associated with a urine biomarker of oxidative DNA damage. Conclusions:Isoniazid and its metabolites share the potential for oxidative cellular damage, with the greatest effects observed for hydrazine. Future studies should investigate the clinical consequences of oxidative stress with regards to clinical episodes of drug induced liver injury during isoniazid treatment.

Project description:The blood concentration of isoniazid (INH) is evidently affected by polymorphisms in N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2), an enzyme that is primarily responsible for the trimodal (i.e., fast, intermediate, and slow) INH elimination. The pharmacokinetic (PK) variability, driven largely by NAT2 activity, creates a challenge for the deployment of a uniform INH dosage in tuberculosis (TB) patients. Although acetylator-specific INH dosing has long been suggested, well-recognized dosages according to acetylator status remain elusive. In this study, 175 blood samples were collected from 89 pulmonary TB patients within 0.5 to 6 h after morning INH administration. According to their NAT2 genotypes, 32 (36.0%), 38 (42.7%), and 19 (21.3%) were fast, intermediate, and slow acetylators, respectively. The plasma INH concentration was detected by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Population pharmacokinetic (PPK) analysis was conducted using NONMEM and R software. A two-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination well described the PK parameters of isoniazid. Body weight and acetylator status significantly affected the INH clearance rate. The dosage simulation targeting three indicators, including the well-recognized efficacy-safety indicator maximum concentration in serum (C max; 3 to 6??g/ml), the reported area under the concentration-time curve from 0 h to infinity (AUC0-?; ?10.52??g·h/ml), and the 2-h INH serum concentrations (?2.19??g/ml), was associated with the strongest early bactericidal activity. The optimal dosages targeting the different indicators varied from 700 to 900?mg/day, 500 to 600?mg/day, and 300?mg/day for the rapid, intermediate, and slow acetylators, respectively. Furthermore, a PPK model for isoniazid among Chinese tuberculosis patients was established for the first time and suggested doses of approximately 800?mg/day, 500?mg/day, and 300?mg/day for fast, intermediate, and slow acetylators, respectively, after a trade-off between efficacy and the occurrence of side effects.

Project description:BackgroundThe dual epidemic of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and tuberculosis is a major cause of sickness and death in sub-Saharan Africa. We conducted a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of preexposure isoniazid prophylaxis against tuberculosis in HIV-infected children and uninfected children exposed to HIV during the perinatal period.MethodsWe randomly assigned 548 HIV-infected and 804 HIV-uninfected infants (91 to 120 days of age) to isoniazid (10 to 20 mg per kilogram of body weight per day) or matching placebo for 96 weeks. All patients received bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination against tuberculosis within 30 days after birth. HIV-infected children had access to antiretroviral therapy. The primary outcome measures were tuberculosis disease and death in HIV-infected children and latent tuberculosis infection, tuberculosis disease, and death in HIV-uninfected children within 96 to 108 weeks after randomization.ResultsAntiretroviral therapy was initiated in 98.9% of HIV-infected children during the study. Among HIV-infected children, protocol-defined tuberculosis or death occurred in 52 children (19.0%) in the isoniazid group and 53 (19.3%) in the placebo group (P=0.93). Among HIV-uninfected children, there was no significant difference in the combined incidence of tuberculosis infection, tuberculosis disease, or death between the isoniazid group (39 children, 10%) and the placebo group (45 children, 11%; P=0.44). The rate of tuberculosis was 121 cases per 1000 child-years (95% confidence interval [CI], 95 to 153) among HIV-infected children as compared with 41 per 1000 child-years (95% CI, 31 to 52) among HIV-uninfected children. There were no significant differences in clinical or severe laboratory toxic effects between treatment groups.ConclusionsPrimary isoniazid prophylaxis did not improve tuberculosis-disease-free survival among HIV-infected children or tuberculosis-infection-free survival among HIV-uninfected children immunized with BCG vaccine. Despite access to antiretroviral therapy, the burden of tuberculosis remained high among HIV-infected children.

Project description:Cutaneous melanoma, a lethal skin cancer, arises from malignant transformation of melanocytes. Solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is a major environmental risk factor for melanoma since its interaction with the skin generates DNA damage, either directly or indirectly via oxidative stress. Pheomelanin pigments exacerbate oxidative stress in melanocytes by UVR-dependent and independent mechanisms. Thus, oxidative stress is considered to contribute to melanomagenesis, particularly in people with pheomelanic pigmentation. The melanocortin 1 receptor gene (MC1R) is a major melanoma susceptibility gene. Frequent MC1R variants (varMC1R) associated with fair skin and red or yellow hair color display hypomorphic signaling to the cAMP pathway and are associated with higher melanoma risk. This association is thought to be due to production of photosensitizing pheomelanins as well as deficient induction of DNA damage repair downstream of varMC1R. However, the data on modulation of oxidative DNA damage repair by MC1R remain scarce. We recently demonstrated that varMC1R accelerates clearance of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced DNA strand breaks in an AKT-dependent manner. Here we show that varMC1R also protects against ROS-dependent formation of 8-oxodG, the most frequent oxidative DNA lesion. Since the base excision repair (BER) pathway mediates clearance of these DNA lesions, we analyzed induction of BER enzymes in human melanoma cells of varMC1R genotype. Agonist-mediated activation of both wildtype (wtMC1R) and varMC1R significantly induced OGG and APE-1/Ref1, the rate-limiting BER enzymes responsible for repair of 8-oxodG. Moreover, we found that NADPH oxidase (NOX)-dependent generation of ROS was responsible for AKT activation and oxidative DNA damage repair downstream of varMC1R. These observations provide a better understanding of the functional properties of melanoma-associated MC1R alleles and may be useful for the rational development of strategies to correct defective varMC1R responses for efficient photoprotection and melanoma prevention in fair-skinned individuals.

Project description:BackgroundTuberculosis is the leading killer of patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Preventive therapy is effective, but current regimens are limited by poor implementation and low completion rates.MethodsWe conducted a randomized, open-label, phase 3 noninferiority trial comparing the efficacy and safety of a 1-month regimen of daily rifapentine plus isoniazid (1-month group) with 9 months of isoniazid alone (9-month group) in HIV-infected patients who were living in areas of high tuberculosis prevalence or who had evidence of latent tuberculosis infection. The primary end point was the first diagnosis of tuberculosis or death from tuberculosis or an unknown cause. Noninferiority would be shown if the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval for the between-group difference in the number of events per 100 person-years was less than 1.25.ResultsA total of 3000 patients were enrolled and followed for a median of 3.3 years. Of these patients, 54% were women; the median CD4+ count was 470 cells per cubic millimeter, and half the patients were receiving antiretroviral therapy. The primary end point was reported in 32 of 1488 patients (2%) in the 1-month group and in 33 of 1498 (2%) in the 9-month group, for an incidence rate of 0.65 per 100 person-years and 0.67 per 100 person-years, respectively (rate difference in the 1-month group, -0.02 per 100 person-years; upper limit of the 95% confidence interval, 0.30). Serious adverse events occurred in 6% of the patients in the 1-month group and in 7% of those in the 9-month group (P = 0.07). The percentage of treatment completion was significantly higher in the 1-month group than in the 9-month group (97% vs. 90%, P<0.001).ConclusionsA 1-month regimen of rifapentine plus isoniazid was noninferior to 9 months of isoniazid alone for preventing tuberculosis in HIV-infected patients. The percentage of patients who completed treatment was significantly higher in the 1-month group.
