Purpose. The two purposes of this study were evaluating preclinical pharmacokinetics of MI-219 and predicting clearance (CL) and volume of distribution at steady-state (Vdss) of MI-219 in humans. Methods. Pharmacokinetic studies were conducted on mice, rats, dogs, and monkeys. Human CL of MI-219 was predicted using allometric scaling (SA), multi-exponential allometric scaling (ME), rule of exponents (RoE), single species scaling, two-term power equation (TTPE), physiologically based in vitro-in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE), and fu corrected intercept method (FCIM). In vitro assays were conducted to determine in vitro intrinsic CL, protein binding, and blood-plasma partition coefficients. To estimate half-life of MI-219, plasma concentration–time profile in humans was predicted using kallynochron and apolysichron time transformation (Dedrick plots) and normalization with MRT and Vdss (Wajima’s method). In addition, simultaneous interspecies scaling of CL, Vdss and concentration–time profile were performed by using Nonlinear Mixed Effects Modeling (NONMEM). Results. Preclinical studies showed that the elimination of MI-219 was mainly through metabolism. The validation using observed monkey CL and Vdss showed that MA, IVIVE and Oie-Tozer methods were accurately than the other methods. Human CL of MI-219 predicted by ME and IVIVE was between 0.237-0.342 L*h-1*kg-1. Human Vdss predicted by Oie-Tozer method and allometric scaling of unbound volume of distribution of tissues (VT/fuT) method was between 0.93-1.40 L*kg-1. Superimposition of rat, monkey and dog data was observed in Dedrick plots and Wajima’s transformations. Conclusions. The predicted human pharmacokinetics is useful for the design of first-in-human study. This article is open to POST-PUBLICATION REVIEW.

Abstract Aims A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling approach was used to simulate the concentration-time profile of ethanol (EtOH) in stomach, duodenum, plasma and other tissues upon consumption of beer and whiskey under fasted and fed conditions. Methods A full PBPK model was developed for EtOH using the advanced dissolution, absorption and metabolism (ADAM) model fully integrated into the Simcyp Simulator® 15 (Simcyp Ltd., Sheffield, UK). The prediction performance of the developed model was verified and the EtOH concentration-time profile in different organs was predicted. Results Simcyp simulation showed ≤ 2-fold difference in values of EtOH area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) in stomach and duodenum as compared to the observed values. Moreover, the simulated EtOH maximum concentration (Cmax), time to reach Cmax (Tmax) and AUC in plasma were comparable to the observed values. We showed that liver is exposed to the highest EtOH concentration, faster than other organs (Cmax = 839.50 mg/L and Tmax = 0.53 h), while brain exposure of EtOH (AUC = 1139.43 mg·h/L) is the highest among all other organs. Sensitivity analyses (SAs) showed direct proportion of EtOH rate and extent of absorption with administered EtOH dose and inverse relationship with gastric emptying time (GE) and steady-state volume of distribution (Vss). Conclusions The current PBPK model approach might help with designing in vitro experiments in the area of alcohol organ damage or alcohol-drug interaction studies.

AbstractBendamustine, an alkylating anticancer agent, is used to treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia by intravenous infusion alone or in combination. The work aimed to develop a method to predict time vs. concentration profile for humans based on preclinical pharmacokinetics using the assumption of superimposability of normalized time course profiles of animals and humans. Standard allometric equations with/without correction factors (CF) were also used in prediction. The Vss was predicted by simple allometry of 0.312W0.871 (r2=0.987), where W is body weight; predicted Vss (19.71 L) was similar to the reported value (20.10 L). However, CL prediction involved both simple and CF allometry. Best proximity CL (543 vs. 598 mL/min) was obtained with maximum life span correction (MLP) [2.46W1.215 (r2=0.988)]. Normalized curves were obtained by normalizing the time (with mean residence time) vs. concentration (with dose/Vss) in animal species. The concentration vs. time profile in humans after intravenous infusion was then simulated using normalized curve for each animal species and the values of CL and Vss were predicted for humans. In summary the findings indicate that normalized time course approach could predict the bendamustine human pharmacokinetics and such an approach could be prospectively applied for analog drugs of this class.

Background: There has been a lack of information about the inhibition of bovine medicines on bovine hepatic CYP450 at their commercial doses and dosing routes. Objective: The aim of this work was to assess the inhibition of 43 bovine medicines on bovine hepatic CYP450 using a combination of in vitro assay and Cmax values from pharmacokinetic studies with their commercial doses and dosing routes in the literature. Methods: Those drugs were first evaluated through a single point inhibitory assay at 3 μM in bovine liver microsomes for six specific CYP450 metabolisms, phenacetin o-deethylation, coumarin 7- hydroxylation, tolbutamide 4-hydroxylation, bufuralol 1-hydroxylation, chlorzoxazone 6-hydroxylation and midazolam 1’-hydroxylation. When the inhibition was greater than 20% in the assay, IC50 values were then determined. The potential in vivo bovine hepatic CYP450 inhibition by those drugs was assessed using a combination of the IC50 values and in vivo Cmax values from pharmacokinetic studies at their commercial doses and administration routes in the literature. Results: Fifteen bovine medicines or metabolites showed in vitro inhibition on one or more bovine hepatic CYP450 metabolisms with different IC50 values. Desfuroylceftiour (active metabolite of ceftiofur), nitroxinil and flunixin have the potential to inhibit one of the bovine hepatic CYP450 isoforms in vivo at their commercial doses and administration routes. The rest of the bovine medicines had low risks of in vivo bovine hepatic CYP450 inhibition. Conclusion: This combination of in vitro assay and in vivo Cmax data provides a good approach to assess the inhibition of bovine medicines on bovine hepatic CYP450.

ABSTRACTIsavuconazonium sulfate is a novel triazole prodrug that has been recently approved for the treatment of invasive aspergillosis by the FDA. The active moiety (isavuconazole) has a broad spectrum of activity against many pathogenic fungi. This study utilized a dynamicin vitromodel of the human alveolus to describe the pharmacodynamics of isavuconazole against two wild-type and two previously defined azole-resistant isolates ofAspergillus fumigatus. A human-like concentration-time profile for isavuconazole was generated. MICs were determined using CLSI and EUCAST methodologies. Galactomannan was used as a measure of fungal burden. Target values for the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC)/MIC were calculated using a population pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics (PK-PD) mathematical model. Isolates with higher MICs required higher AUCs in order to achieve maximal suppression of galactomannan. The AUC/MIC targets necessary to achieve 90% probability of galactomannan suppression of <1 were 11.40 and 11.20 for EUCAST and CLSI, respectively.

Our previous study indicated that a chiral compound 071031B was a novel serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor with superior antidepressant activity compared to duloxetine. The present study aimed to investigate chiral pharmacology differences of 071031B enantiomers, S-071031B and R-071031B, and disclose mechanisms underlying the behavioral differences based on target profiles and pharmacokinetic profiles. In vivo behavioral tests indicated that S-071031B was more potent than R-071031B in two depression models (the forced swimming test in mice and rats) and two pain models (the acetic acid-induced writhing and formalin tests in mice). In vitro assays revealed that both S-071031B and R-071031B showed high affinity for human serotonin transporters and norepinephrine transporters with equal potency, and showed consistently equipotent inhibitory effects on serotonin and norepinephrine uptake. Pharmacokinetic studies demonstrated that oral availability and hepatic metabolism, rather than pH stability, intestinal transport, and plasma binding, contributed to enantiomers’ behavioral differences. Based on these findings, it is suggested that S-071031B is a more active enantiomer, and the differential pharmacokinetic profiles, but not target affinity, contribute to differences of S-071031B and R-071031B in behavioral pharmacology. Moreover, current PK-PD study may provide positive exploration for chiral antidepressants development.

(-)-beta-D-2-Aminopurine dioxolane (APD) and (-)-beta-D-2-amino-6-chloropurine dioxolane (ACPD) are recently synthesized dioxolanylpurine nucleoside derivatives being developed as potential prodrugs for the antiviral nucleoside analog (-)-beta-D-dioxolane guanine (DXG). In vitro, APD and ACPD are converted to DXG by xanthine oxidase and adenosine deaminase, respectively. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the preclinical pharmacokinetics of APD and ACPD and their potential for generating sustained levels of the parent nucleoside, DXG, in rhesus monkeys following oral administration. Both nucleoside derivatives were rapidly absorbed, with similar peak concentrations achieved within 1 h after administration. However, concentrations of APD were more markedly sustained than those of ACPD. Both prodrugs yielded DXG, but significantly higher serum concentrations of DXG and area under the concentration-time curve values were observed following administration of APD. In addition, APD produced higher concentrations of prodrug and DXG in cerebrospinal fluid than did ACPD. Thus, the results of this pharmacokinetic study suggest that APD is likely to serve as a better prodrug of DXG and should be considered for clinical trials for antiviral therapy against human immunodeficiency virus and hepatitis B virus.

ABSTRACT Steady-state concentrations of telavancin, a novel, bactericidal lipoglycopeptide, were determined in the plasma, pulmonary epithelial lining fluid (ELF), and alveolar macrophages (AMs) of 20 healthy subjects. Telavancin at 10 mg of drug/kg of body weight/day was administered as a 1-h intravenous infusion on three successive days, with bronchoalveolar lavage performed on five subjects, each at 4, 8, 12, and 24 h after the last dose. Plasma samples were collected before the first and third infusions and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, and 24 h after the third infusion. The plasma telavancin concentration-time profile was as reported previously. Telavancin (mean ± standard deviation) penetrated well into ELF (3.73 ± 1.28 μg/ml at 8 h and 0.89 ± 1.03 μg/ml at 24 h) and extensively into AMs (19.0 ± 16.8 μg/ml at 8 h, 45.0 ± 22.4 μg/ml at 12 h, and 42.0 ± 31.4 μg/ml at 24 h). Mean concentrations in AMs and plasma at 12 h were 45.0 μg/ml and 22.9 μg/ml (mean AM/plasma ratio, 1.93), respectively, and at 24 h were 42.0 μg/ml and 7.28 μg/ml (mean AM/plasma ratio, 6.67), respectively. Over the entire dosing interval, telavancin was present in ELF and AMs at concentrations up to 8-fold and 85-fold, respectively, above its MIC90 for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (0.5 μg/ml). Pulmonary surfactant did not affect telavancin's in vitro antibacterial activity. Telavancin was well tolerated. These results support the proposal for further clinical evaluation of telavancin for treating gram-positive respiratory infections.

e14078 Background: EGFR is a validated target for anti-cancer drug development. Several anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies (mAb) are used in clinics, but associated with a variety of toxicities. A new anti-EGFR mAb might offer better efficacy with less toxicities. Methods: we have developed a new humanized anti-EGFR mAb, HLX07, through engineering of Fab portion and improvement of glycosylation profile and tested in in vitro assays, in vivo xenograft animal models and primate pharmacokinetic (PK) and toxicokinetic (TK) studies. Results: HLX07 exerted potent antibody-dependent, cell-mediated cytotoxicity in vitro. It specifically binds to monkey and human but not rodent EGFR. HLX07 has better binding affinity to human EGFR, compared with cetuximab (KD 1.43x10-10 vs. 2.62x10-10). HLX07 completely inhibited the phosphorylation of EGFR in H292 cells at ≥0.1 nM, The IC50 of HLX07 for DiFi and H292 cells were 54.2 and 23.9 ng/mL, respectively, compared with 63.7 and 37.2 ng/mL by cetuximab, respectively. In vivo xenogenic studies also demonstrated that HLX07 significantly inhibited the growth of H292, A432 and WiDi cells in a dose-dependent manner. Xenogenic studies also showed that HLX07 used with gemcitabine and/or cisplatin was more active than either agent alone. HLX07 was more effective than cetuximab in inhibiting the growth of FaDu cells when used with local radiotherapy in vivo. Single-dose and 13-week repeat-dose GLP pharmacokinetic and toxicokinetic studies in cynomulgus monkeys up to 60 mg/kg/wk shows minimal-to-mild toxicities (see table). Conclusions: The detailed preclinical characterization indicates that HLX07 has better efficacy and less toxicity than cetuximab. A phase 1 first-in-human study is ongoing (NCT02648490).

Purpose: The preclinical pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of a potent fluoroketolide RBx14255 against Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae was compared with telithromycin and human clinical dose was predicted for preclinical development. Methods: The in vitro pharmacokinetic characterization was performed for solubility, Caco-2 permeability, microsomal stability, CYP inhibition and plasma protein binding. In vivo pharmacokinetic studies were performed in Swiss albino mice, Sprague Dawley rats and Beagle dogs. The pharmacodynamic studies were carried out in mouse against S. pneumoniae in systemic infection and against S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae in rat lung infection models. Results: RBx14255 showed superior potency and efficacy in mouse and rat infection models. RBx14255 showed pH dependent solubility (0.41 mg/mL at pH 6.8 and >1 mg/mL at pH 1.2), moderate Caco-2 permeability (A to B: 12 nm/s) with high efflux ratio. It showed high plasma protein binding (>97%) in mouse and low binding (45-70%) in rat, dog and human. The compound is mainly metabolized through CYP3A4. Pharmacokinetic parameters and absolute bioavailability of both, RBx14255 and telithromycin are similar in mouse. Both the ketolides showed low plasma clearance (18% of the normal hepatic blood flow rate) in mouse, moderate to high clearance in rat and dog. Mean oral bioavailability was high in mouse (≥85%), moderate in rat (RBx14255: 15% and telithromycin: 51%) and high to moderate in dog (RBx14255: 98% and telithromycin: 56%). The predicted efficacious dose for a 70 kg man ranges from 124 mg BID to 226 mg BID. Conclusion: RBx14255 displayed significantly better pharmacodynamics which correlates with the pharmacokinetic properties against S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae as compared to telithromycin. The predicted human efficacious doses are in the range of 124-226 mg, making it amenable to oral dosage form drug in human. This could be a promising clinical candidate for future studies.
