Inhaled milrinone in cardiac surgical patients: pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic exploration.

ABSTRACT: Mean arterial pressure to mean pulmonary arterial pressure ratio (mAP/mPAP) has been identified as a strong predictor of perioperative complications in cardiac surgery. We therefore investigated the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) relationship of inhaled milrinone in these patients using this ratio (R) as a PD marker. Following approval by the ethics and research committee and informed consent, we performed the following experiment. Before initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass in 28 pulmonary hypertensive patients scheduled for cardiac surgery, milrinone (5 mg) was nebulized, plasma concentrations measured (up to 10 h) and compartmental PK analysis carried out. Baseline (R₀) and peak (R_max) ratios as well as magnitude of peak response (∆_Rmax-R0) were measured. During inhalation, individual area under effect-time (AUEC) and plasma concentration-time (AUC) curves were correlated. Potential relationships between PD markers and difficult separation from bypass (DSB) were explored. In this study, we observed that milrinone peak concentrations (41-189 ng ml^-1) and Δ_Rmax-R0 (- 0.12-1.5) were obtained at the end of inhalation (10-30 min). Mean PK parameters agreed with intravenous milrinone published data after correction for the estimated inhaled dose. Paired comparisons yielded a statistically significant increase between R₀ and R_max (mean difference, 0.58: 95% CI 0.43-0.73; P < 0.001). Individual AUEC correlated with AUC (r = 0.3890, r² = 0.1513; P = 0.045); significance increased after exclusion of non-responders (r = 4787, r² = 0.2292; P = 0.024). Individual AUEC correlated with ∆R_max-R0 (r = 5973, r² = 0.3568; P = 0.001). Both ∆R_max-R0 (P = 0.009) and CPB duration (P < 0.001) were identified as predictors of DSB. In conclusion, both magnitude of peak response of the mAP/mPAP ratio and CPB duration were associated with DSB.

Project description:Background and objectiveParoxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is a rare blood disorder characterized by life-threatening hemolysis and thrombosis. Complement C5 inhibitor therapy improves symptoms and life prognosis; however, it can result in insufficient hemolysis control, with residual intravascular hemolysis and extravascular hemolysis in some patients. Pegcetacoplan, the first complement C3 inhibitor approved for patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, targets both intravascular and extravascular hemolysis. This analysis evaluated population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic profiles of pegcetacoplan.MethodsPooled clinical study data were used to predict pegcetacoplan concentrations and biomarker responses indicative of hemolysis (hemoglobin and lactate dehydrogenase) over time, including the impact of patient characteristics and prior or concurrent complement C5 inhibitor treatment, to support the approved dose of subcutaneous pegcetacoplan 1080 mg twice weekly.ResultsThe population pharmacokinetoc analysis included 284 subjects, and the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic analysis included 165 subjects. Subcutaneous pegcetacoplan 1080 mg twice weekly resulted in rapid serum exposures and robust biomarker response within 4 weeks after treatment initiation. Steady-state serum concentrations demonstrated consistent exposure (median ≥ 600 µg/mL) with minimal peak-to-trough variation. The median effective half-life was 8.6 days in patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria. Body weight significantly impacted pegcetacoplan exposure, and other covariates impacted hemoglobin (sex and creatinine clearance) or lactate dehydrogenase (prior or concurrent complement C5 inhibitor treatment); however, effects were not clinically meaningful.ConclusionsThe approved dose of pegcetacoplan is predicted to produce rapid and sustained exposure and robust hemoglobin and lactate dehydrogenase responses in adult patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, with no initial dose adjustments required for any specific patient population.

Project description:BackgroundSeveral choices of inotropic therapy are available and used in relation to cardiac surgery. Comparisons are necessary to select optimal therapy. In Denmark, dobutamine and milrinone are the two inotropic agents most commonly used to treat post-bypass low cardiac output syndrome. This study compares all-cause mortality with these drugs.MethodsIn a retrospective observational study we investigated 10,700 consecutive patients undergoing cardiac surgery from 1 April 2006 to 31 December 2013 at Aarhus and Aalborg University Hospitals in the Central and Northern Denmark Region. Prospectively entered data in the Western Danish Heart Registry on intraoperative use of inotropes were used to identify 952 patients treated with milrinone, 418 patients treated with dobutamine, and 82 patients receiving a combination of the two inotropes. All-cause mortality among patients receiving dobutamine was compared to all-cause mortality among milrinone receivers. Multiple logistic regression analyses including preoperative and intraoperative variables along with g-formula analyses were used to model 30-day and 1-year mortality risks. Reported were standardized mortality risk differences between the treatment groups.ResultsAmong patients receiving intraoperative dobutamine, 18 (4.3%) died within 30 days and 49 (11.7%) within 1 year. Corresponding 30-day and 1-year mortality for milrinone receivers were 81 (8.5%) and 170 (17.9%). Risk of death within 30 days and 1 year was increased for intraoperative milrinone compared to dobutamine with a standardized risk difference of 4.06% (confidence interval (CI) 1.23; 6.89, p = 0.005) and 4.77% (CI 0.39; 9.15, p = 0.033), respectively. Sensitivity analyses including adjustment for milrinone preference, hemodynamic instability prior to cardiopulmonary bypass, and separate analyses on hospital level all confirmed a sign toward increased mortality among milrinone receivers.ConclusionsIntraoperative use of milrinone in cardiac surgery may be associated with an increase in all-cause mortality compared to use of dobutamine.
