Effects of a ritonavir-containing regimen on the pharmacokinetics of sirolimus or everolimus in healthy adult subjects.

ABSTRACT: The immunosuppressive agents sirolimus and everolimus are sensitive CYP3A4 substrates with narrow therapeutic index. Ritonavir is a strong CYP3A inhibitor. A phase 1 study was conducted to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of the co-administration of sirolimus or everolimus with the ritonavir-containing 3D regimen of the direct-acting antiviral agents ombitasvir, ritonavir-boosted paritaprevir, and dasabuvir in healthy subjects. This study had two independent arms, each with a two-period, single-sequence, crossover study design. A single dose of sirolimus 2 mg (N = 12) or everolimus 0.75 mg (N = 12) was administered in Period 1. In Period 2, multiple doses of the 3D regimen (ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir 25/150/100 mg once daily and dasabuvir 250 mg twice daily) were administered for 34 or 28 days, with a single dose of sirolimus 0.5 mg or everolimus 0.75 mg co-administered on Day 15. Following co-administration with the 3D regimen, the sirolimus dose-normalized maximum observed blood concentration (C_max ) and area under the blood concentration-time curve from time zero to infinity (AUC_inf ) increased to 6.4-fold and 38-fold, respectively. Following co-administration with the 3D regimen, the everolimus C_max and AUC_inf increased to 4.7-fold and 27-fold, respectively. Sirolimus and everolimus half-lives increased from 96 to 249 h, and 42 to 118 h, respectively. There were no major safety or tolerability issues in this study. The ritonavir-containing 3D regimen resulted in a significant increase in sirolimus or everolimus exposure, consistent with the known strong inhibitory effect of ritonavir on CYP3A requiring dose and/or frequency modification when co-administered with each other.

Project description:Alalevonadifloxacin (WCK 2349) is a novel l-alanine ester prodrug of levonadifloxacin that is being developed as an oral fluoroquinolone antibiotic. The primary objective of this study was to determine and compare plasma, epithelial lining fluid (ELF), and alveolar macrophage (AM) concentrations of levonadifloxacin following oral administration of alalevonadifloxacin to healthy adult subjects. Levonadifloxacin concentrations in plasma, ELF, and AM samples from 30 healthy subjects were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) following oral dosing of alalevonadifloxacin (1,000 mg twice daily for 5 days). Six subjects were assigned to each bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid sampling time, i.e., 2, 4, 6, 8, or 12 h after the ninth oral dose. Noncompartmental pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters were determined from serial total plasma concentrations collected over a 12-h interval following the first and ninth oral doses. Penetration ratios were calculated from the areas under the concentration-time curves from 0 to 12 h (AUC0-12) for plasma, ELF, and AM by using mean (and median) concentrations at each BAL sampling time. Unbound plasma concentrations (∼85% plasma protein binding) were used to determine site-to-plasma penetration ratios. Plasma PK parameter values for levonadifloxacin were similar after the first and ninth doses. The respective AUC0-12 values based on mean ELF and AM concentrations were 172.6 and 35.3 mg · h/liter, respectively. The penetration ratios for ELF and AM levonadifloxacin concentrations to unbound plasma levonadifloxacin concentrations were 7.66 and 1.58, respectively. Similar penetration ratios were observed with median concentrations. The observed plasma, ELF, and AM concentrations of levonadifloxacin support further studies of alalevonadifloxacin for treatment of lower respiratory tract bacterial infections caused by susceptible pathogens. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under identifier NCT02253342.).
