Pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenetic associations with dolutegravir neuropsychiatric adverse events in an African population.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Dolutegravir has been associated with neuropsychiatric adverse events (NPAEs), but relationships between dolutegravir concentrations and NPAEs are unclear.

Objectives

To determine in an African population whether a concentration-response relationship exists between dolutegravir and treatment-emergent NPAEs, and whether selected loss-of-function polymorphisms in genes encoding UDP-glucuronosyltransferase-1A1 (the major metabolizing enzyme for dolutegravir) and organic cation transporter-2 (involved in neurotransmitter transport and inhibited by dolutegravir) are associated with NPAEs.

Methods

Antiretroviral therapy-naive participants randomized to dolutegravir-based therapy in the ADVANCE study were enrolled into a pharmacokinetic sub-study. Primary outcome was change in mental health screening [modified mini screen (MMS)] and sleep quality from baseline to weeks 4, 12 and 24. Dolutegravir exposure was estimated using a population pharmacokinetic model. Polymorphisms analysed were UGT1A1 rs887829 and SLC22A2 rs316019.

Results

Data from 464 participants were available for pharmacokinetic analyses and 301 for genetic analyses. By multivariable linear regression, higher dolutegravir exposure was associated with worsening sleep quality only at week 12 [coefficient = -0.854 (95% CI -1.703 to -0.005), P = 0.049], but with improved MMS score at weeks 12 and 24 [coefficient = -1.255 (95% CI -2.250 to -0.261), P = 0.013 and coefficient = -1.199 (95% CI -2.030 to -0.368), P = 0.005, respectively]. The UGT1A1 and SLC22A2 polymorphisms were not associated with change in MMS score or sleep quality.

Conclusions

Only at week 12 did we find evidence of a relationship between dolutegravir exposure and worsening sleep quality. However, higher dolutegravir exposure was associated with improved MMS scores, suggesting a possible beneficial effect.

Project description:Dolutegravir-based regimens are recommended as first-line therapy for HIV in low- and middle-income countries where tuberculosis is the most common opportunistic infection. Concurrent HIV/tuberculosis treatment is challenging because of drug-drug interactions. Our analysis aimed to characterize dolutegravir's population pharmacokinetics when coadministered with rifampicin and assess alternative dolutegravir dosing regimens. We developed a population pharmacokinetic model of dolutegravir in NONMEM with data from two healthy-volunteer studies (RADIO and ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT01231542) and validated it with data from the INSPIRING study, which consisted of participants living with HIV. The model was developed with 817 dolutegravir plasma concentrations from 41 participants. A 2-compartment model with first-order elimination and lagged absorption best described dolutegravir's pharmacokinetics. For a typical 70-kg individual, we estimated a clearance, absorption rate constant, central volume, and peripheral volume of 1.03 L/h, 1.61 h-1, 12.7 L, and 3.85 L, respectively. Rifampicin coadministration increased dolutegravir clearance by 144% (95% confidence interval [CI], 126 to 161%). Simulations showed that when 50 or 100 mg once-daily dolutegravir is coadministered with rifampicin in 70-kg individuals, 71.7% and 91.5% attain trough concentrations above 0.064 mg/L, the protein-adjusted 90% inhibitory concentration (PA-IC90), respectively. The model developed from healthy-volunteer data describes patient data reasonably well but underpredicts trough concentrations. Although 50 mg of dolutegravir given twice daily achieves target concentrations in more than 99% of individuals cotreated with rifampicin, 100 mg of dolutegravir, once daily, in the same population is predicted to achieve satisfactory pharmacokinetic target attainment. The efficacy of this regimen should be investigated since it presents an opportunity for treatment simplification.

Project description:IntroductionPsychiatric and substance use disorders represent barriers to smoking cessation. We sought to identify correlates of psychiatric comorbidity (CM; 2 diagnoses) and multimorbidity (MM; 3+ diagnoses) among smokers attempting to quit and to evaluate whether these conditions predicted neuropsychiatric adverse events (NPSAEs), treatment adherence, or cessation efficacy (CE).Aims and methodsData were collected from November 2011 to January 2015 across sixteen countries and reflect the psychiatric cohort of the EAGLES trial. Participants were randomly assigned to receive varenicline, bupropion, nicotine replacement therapy, or placebo for 12 weeks and were followed for an additional 12 weeks posttreatment. NPSAE outcomes reflected 16 moderate-to-severe neuropsychiatric symptom categories, and CE outcomes included continuous abstinence at weeks 9-12 and 9-24.ResultsOf the 4103 participants included, 36.2% were diagnosed with multiple psychiatric conditions (20.9% CM, 15.3% MM). Psychiatric CM and MM were associated with several baseline factors, including male gender, nonwhite race or ethnicity, more previous quit attempts, and more severe mental health symptoms. The incidence of moderate-to-severe NPSAEs was significantly higher (p < .01) in participants with MM (11.9%) than those with CM (5.1%) or primary diagnosis only (4.6%). There were no significant (ps > .05) main effects or interactions with treatment condition for diagnostic grouping on treatment adherence or CE outcomes.ConclusionsWhile having multiple psychiatric diagnoses increased risk of developing moderate-to-severe NPSAEs during a quit attempt, neither CM nor MM were associated with treatment adherence or odds of quitting. These findings reassure providers to advise smokers with multiple stable psychiatric conditions to consider using Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved medications when trying to quit.ImplicationsPsychiatric MM may be associated with development of NPSAEs when smokers make a medication-assisted quit attempt, but it does not appear to be differentially associated with medication compliance or efficacy. Prescribing healthcare professionals are encouraged to not only promote use of FDA-approved pharmacotherapies by smokers with complex psychiatric presentations, but also to closely monitor such smokers for neuropsychiatric side effects that may be related to their mental health conditions.Nct #NCT01456936.
