Purpose: The usual recommended dose for gentamicin is 3 to 7 mg/kg/day for patients with a normal renal function while 1.7 mg/kg/day is recommended for patients undergoing chronic haemodialysis. The objectives of this study were to develop a population pharmacokinetics model (POPPK) for gentamicin, designed for patients undergoing dialysis, and to investigate the best dosing scheme for different MIC clinical breakpoints using Monte Carlo simulations.
Methods: In this monocentric prospective interventional open clinical study, 23 patients (141 gentamicin samples) were included. The covariates investigated were weight, creatinine, dialysis (yes/no), dialysis flow and dialysis duration. The POPPK model was developed in Pmetrics and 1000 time-concentration profiles were simulated for 9 doses between 2 and 10 mg/kg/day, with an inter-dose period of 24, 48 or 96 h to predict the probability of having both a serum peak > 8*MIC and a trough < 1 mg/L for MIC values between 0.25 and 4 mg/L.
Results: A two-compartment model including the dialysis on the elimination constant and bodyweight on the volume of distribution best described the data. A 30-min gentamicin infusion of 2 mg/kg/day (for MIC = 1 mg/L) or 8 mg/kg/day (for MIC = 4 mg/L) just before dialysis eliminated by two dialysis sessions before the next administration (dose interval of at least 96 h) led to a peak > 8*MIC for > 90% of the simulations and a trough concentration < 1 mg/L at 96 h for 92% and 34% respectively.
Conclusion: The gentamicin dose generally used to treat infections in dialysis patients is insufficient and might be increased to 3-8 mg/kg/day just before dialysis, taking into account the type of infection.
