Ciprofloxacin Pharmacokinetics After Oral and Intravenous Administration in (Morbidly) Obese and Non-obese Individuals: A Prospective Clinical Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background and objective

Ciprofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone used for empirical and targeted therapy of a wide range of infections. Despite the increase in obesity prevalence, only very limited guidance is available on whether the ciprofloxacin dose needs to be adjusted when administered orally or intravenously in (morbidly) obese individuals. Our aim was to evaluate the influence of (morbid) obesity on ciprofloxacin pharmacokinetics after both oral and intravenous administration, to ultimately guide dosing in this population.

Methods

(Morbidly) obese individuals undergoing bariatric surgery received ciprofloxacin either orally (500 mg; n = 10) or intravenously (400 mg; n = 10), while non-obese participants received semi-simultaneous oral dosing of 500 mg followed by intravenous dosing of 400 mg 3 h later (n = 8). All participants underwent rich sampling (11-17 samples) for 12 h after administration. Non-linear mixed-effects modelling and simulations were performed to evaluate ciprofloxacin exposure in plasma. Prior data from the literature were subsequently included in the model to explore exposure in soft tissue in obese and non-obese patients.

Results

Overall, 28 participants with body weights ranging from 57 to 212 kg were recruited. No significant influence of body weight on bioavailability, clearance or volume of distribution was identified (all p > 0.01). Soft tissue concentrations were predicted to be lower in obese individuals despite similar plasma concentrations compared with non-obese individuals.

Conclusion

Based on plasma pharmacokinetics, we found no evidence of the influence of obesity on ciprofloxacin pharmacokinetic parameters; therefore, ciprofloxacin dosages do not need to be increased routinely in obese individuals. In the treatment of infections in tissue where impaired ciprofloxacin penetration is anticipated, higher dosages may be required.

Project description:BackgroundIn 4 decades, numerous nicotine replacement therapy products have been developed. Population pharmacokinetic models can support exposure-response modeling and inform nicotine replacement therapy product development, but only limited model-based cross-study population pharmacokinetic analyses for nicotine replacement therapy products have been published.ObjectivesThe aim of this retrospective analysis was to assess the population pharmacokinetics of nicotine across intravenous, oral, transdermal and oromucosal (mouth spray, chewing gum, lozenge and inhaler) routes and formulations in healthy smoking subjects.MethodsData on 930 unique subjects (46,016 observations) from 29 single- and repeated-dose studies with multiple formulations across intravenous, oral, transdermal and oromucosal routes of administration were included. Data from intravenous and extravascular routes of administration were modelled separately for run efficiency reasons. For developing extravascular models, clearance and disposition parameters and their inter-individual variabilities were fixed to the estimates for intravenously delivered nicotine. Detectable pre-dose nicotine concentrations were modelled as a hypothetical nicotine bolus into the central compartment at the start of wash-out. Modelling repeated-dose oral and buccal administrations required a time-dependent increase in clearance or decrease in bioavailability to describe the data adequately.ResultsDisposition of intravenous nicotine was best described by a three-compartment model with initial and terminal half-lives of 7 min and 4.5 h, respectively, and the absorption of single oral doses was best described with a first-order absorption rate constant of 1.55 h-1. The data of buccal formulations were modelled with parallel oromucosal absorption and gastrointestinal absorption of a part of the dose that is swallowed. For transdermal nicotine, parallel zero- and first-order release from the patch and a transit-compartment absorption model best described the data. Key pharmacokinetic parameters were reliably estimated, with typical values for clearance (67 L/h for a 70-kg subject), volume of distribution (4.3 L/kg), oral bioavailability (40%) and transdermal bioavailability (76%) within expected ranges. The estimated fraction of the dose swallowed for buccal formulations ranged from 55% (gum) to 69% (lozenge).ConclusionsRobust population pharmacokinetic models were developed for five nicotine replacement therapy product types and for intravenous and oral nicotine. These population pharmacokinetic models are used in exposure-response analyses and simulation-based nicotine replacement therapy product design.
