Non-compartmental analysis (NCA) and model-based methods like maximum a posteriori Bayesian (MAP) approaches are two methods routinely used for dose optimization. These approaches vary in how they estimate patient-specific pharmacokinetic parameters to inform a dose and the impact of these differences is not well-understood. Using busulfan as an example application and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) as a target exposure metric, these estimation methods were compared using retrospective patient data (N = 246) and simulated precision dosing treatment courses. NCA was performed with or without peak extension, and MAP Bayesian estimation was performed using either the one-compartment Shukla model or the two-compartment McCune model. All methods showed good agreement on real-world data (correlation coefficients of 0.945-0.998) as assessed by Bland-Altman plots, although agreement between NCA and MAP methods was higher during the first dosing interval (0.982-0.994) compared to subsequent dosing intervals (0.918-0.938). In dose adjustment simulations, both NCA and MAP estimated high target attainment (> 98%) although true simulated target attainment was lower for NCA (63-66%) versus MAP (91-93%). The largest differences in AUC estimation were due to different assumptions for the shape of the concentration curve during the infusion phase, followed by how the methods considered time-dependent clearance and concentration-time points collected in earlier intervals. In conclusion, although AUC estimates between the two methods showed good correlation, in a simulated study, MAP lead to higher target attainment. When changing from one method to another, or changing infusion duration and other factors, optimum estimated exposure targets may require adjusting to maintain a consistent exposure.</p>","PeriodicalId":16851,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics","volume":" ","pages":"279-288"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11136738/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140194024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, in Gram-negative bacteria, resistance (both mutational and adaptive) to BL-BLI combination can still develop through multiple mechanisms. These mechanisms may include increased β-lactamase activity, reduced drug influx, and increased drug efflux. Understanding the relative contribution of these mechanisms during resistance development helps identify the most impactful mechanism to target in designing a treatment to counter BL-BLI resistance. This study used semi-mechanistic mathematical modeling in combination with antibiotic sensitivity assays to assess the potential impact of different resistance mechanisms during the development of PIP-TAZ resistance in a Klebsiella pneumoniae isolate expressing CTX-M-15 and SHV-1 β-lactamases. The mathematical models were used to evaluate the potential impact of several cellular changes as a sole mediator of PIP-TAZ resistance. Our semi-mechanistic model identified 2 out of the 13 inspected mechanisms as key resistance mechanisms that may independently support the observed magnitude of PIP-TAZ resistance, namely porin loss and efflux pump up-regulation. Simulation using the resulting models also suggested the possible adjustment of PIP-TAZ dose outside its commonly used 8:1 dosing ratio.

To combat nonadherence, it is often recommended to prescribe so-called \"forgiving\" drugs, which maintain their effect despite lapses in patient adherence. Nevertheless, drug forgiveness is difficult to quantify and compare between different drugs. In this paper, we construct and analyze a stochastic pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model to quantify and understand drug forgiveness. The model parameterizes a medication merely by an effective rate of onset of effect when the medication is taken (on-rate) and an effective rate of loss of effect when a dose is missed (off-rate). Patient dosing is modeled by a stochastic process that allows for correlations in missed doses. We analyze this \"on/off\" model and derive explicit formulas that show how treatment efficacy depends on drug parameters and patient adherence. As a case study, we compare the effects of nonadherence on the efficacy of various antihypertensive medications. Our analysis shows how different drugs can have identical efficacies under perfect adherence, but vastly different efficacies for adherence patterns typical of actual patients. We further demonstrate that complex PK/PD models can indeed be parameterized in terms of effective on-rates and off-rates.

To fill the gap, here we have developed and optimized a translational two-pore PBPK model that can characterize plasma and tissue disposition of different-size proteins in mice, rats, monkeys, and humans. Datasets used for model development include more than 15 types of proteins: IgG (150 kDa), F(ab)2 (100 kDa), minibody (80 kDa), Fc-containing proteins (205, 200, 110, 105, 92, 84, 81, 65, or 60 kDa), albumin conjugate (85.7 kDa), albumin (67 kDa), Fab (50 kDa), diabody (50 kDa), scFv (27 kDa), dAb2 (23.5 kDa), proteins with an albumin-binding domain (26, 23.5, 22, 16, 14, or 13 kDa), nanobody (13 kDa), and other proteins (110, 65, or 60 kDa). The PBPK model incorporates: (i) molecular weight (MW)-dependent extravasation through large and small pores via diffusion and filtration, (ii) MW-dependent renal filtration, (iii) endosomal FcRn-mediated protection from catabolism for IgG and albumin-related modalities, and (iv) competition for FcRn binding from endogenous IgG and albumin. The finalized model can well characterize PK of most of these proteins, with area under the curve predicted within two-fold error. The model also provides insights into contribution of renal filtration and lysosomal degradation towards total elimination of proteins, and contribution of paracellular convection/diffusion and transcytosis towards extravasation.
