Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling to Support the Clinical Management of Drug-Drug Interactions With Bictegravir.

ABSTRACT: Bictegravir is equally metabolized by cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A and uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT)1A1. Drug-drug interaction (DDI) studies were only conducted for strong inhibitors and inducers, leading to some uncertainty whether moderate perpetrators or multiple drug associations can be safely coadministered with bictegravir. We used physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling to simulate DDI magnitudes of various scenarios to guide the clinical DDI management of bictegravir. Clinically observed DDI data for bictegravir coadministered with voriconazole, darunavir/cobicistat, atazanavir/cobicistat, and rifampicin were predicted within the 95% confidence interval of the PBPK model simulations. The area under the curve (AUC) ratio of the DDI divided by the control scenario was always predicted within 1.25-fold of the clinically observed data, demonstrating the predictive capability of the used modeling approach. After the successful verification, various DDI scenarios with drug pairs and multiple concomitant drugs were simulated to analyze their effect on bictegravir exposure. Generally, our simulation results suggest that bictegravir should not be coadministered with strong CYP3A and UGT1A1 inhibitors and inducers (e.g., atazanavir, nilotinib, and rifampicin), but based on the present modeling results, bictegravir could be administered with moderate dual perpetrators (e.g., efavirenz). Importantly, the inducing effect of rifampicin on bictegravir was predicted to be reversed with the concomitant administration of a strong inhibitor such as ritonavir, resulting in a DDI magnitude within the efficacy and safety margin for bictegravir (0.5-2.4-fold). In conclusion, the PBPK modeling strategy can effectively be used to guide the clinical management of DDIs for novel drugs with limited clinical experience, such as bictegravir.

Project description:Valproic acid (VPA) is an older first-line antiepileptic drug with a complex pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, currently under investigation for several novel neurologic and non-neurologic indications. Our study objective was to design and validate a mechanistic model of VPA disposition in adults and children; and evaluate its predictive performance of drug-drug interactions (DDIs). This study expands upon existing physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models for VPA by incorporating UGT enzyme kinetics and an advanced dissolution, absorption, and metabolism (ADAM) model for extended-release (ER) formulation. PBPK models for VPA IR and ER formulations were constructed using Simcyp Simulator (Version 15). First-order absorption was used for the immediate-release (IR) formulation and the ADAM model, including a controlled-release profile, for ER. Data from twenty-one published clinical studies were used to assess model performance. The model accurately predicted the concentration-time profiles of IR formulation for single-dose and steady-state doses ranging from 200mg to 1000mg. Similarly profiles were also simulated for ER formulation after a single-dose and steady-state doses of 500mg and 1000mg, respectively. In addition, simulated PK profiles agreed well with the observed data from studies in which VPA ER formulation was given to pediatric patients and VPA IR formulation to adult patients with cirrhosis. The model was further validated with individual adult data from a Phase I clinical trial consisting of eight cohorts after IV infusion of VPA with doses ranging from 15 to 150mg/kg. Co-administrations of VPA as an enzyme-inhibitor with victim drug phenytoin or lorazepam, as well as a substrate with enzyme inducer carbamazepine or phenobarbital, were simulated with the model to evaluate drug-drug interaction. The simulated serum concentration-time profiles were within the 5th and 95th percentiles, and the majority of the predicted area-under-the-curve (AUC) and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) values were within 25% of the reported average values. The comprehensive VPA PBPK model defined by this study may be used to support dosage regimen optimization to improve the safety and efficacy profile of this agent under different scenarios.
