The aim of this study was to apply individualized, physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling of CO production rates (iPBPK-R) measured by the erythromycin breath test to characterize the effect of hemodialysis on the function of nonrenal clearance pathways in patients with end-stage renal disease. Twelve patients previously received C-erythromycin intravenously pre- and post-hemodialysis. Serial breath samples were collected after each dose over 2 hours. Eight PBPK parameters were co-estimated across periods, whereas activity of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 clearance was independently estimated for each period. Inhibition coefficients for organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP), P-glycoprotein, and multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 activities were also estimated. Nonrenal clearance parameter estimates were explored regarding sex differences and correlations with uremic toxins and were used in hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA). Relationships between the function of nonrenal clearance pathways and uremic toxin concentrations were explored. Mean CYP 3A4 clearance increased by 2.2% post-hemodialysis. Uptake transporter activity was highly intervariable across hemodialysis. Females had 22% and 30% higher median CYP3A4 activity than males pre- and post-hemodialysis, respectively. Exploratory HCA indicated that using both CYP3A4 and OATP activity parameters at pre- and post-hemodialysis best identifies heterogeneous patients. This is the first study to use the iPBPK-R approach to simultaneously estimate multiple in vivo nonrenal elimination pathways in individual patients with kidney disease and to assess the effect of hemodialysis.

Hepatoprotective Effects of Resveratrol on Acetaminophen-Induced Acute Liver Injury and Its Implications for Tofacitinib Disposition in Rats.

Biomol Ther (Seoul)

Tofacitinib, which is used to treat rheumatoid arthritis (RA), is primarily metabolized by the hepatic cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, CYP3A1/2 and CYP2C11. Acetaminophen (APAP), which is frequently used for pain relief in patients with RA, can induce acute liver injury (ALI) when taken in excess, profoundly affecting drug metabolism. Resveratrol (RVT) is a polyphenolic compound with hepatoprotective properties.

Article Synopsis
  • The study developed a population pharmacokinetic (popPK) model to understand the complex absorption and variability of mycophenolic acid (MPA) in patients who have undergone renal transplantation.
  • Nonlinear mixed-effects modeling was used to analyze data from 42 patients, resulting in a two-compartment model that factors in various influences like total body weight, renal function, and the days since transplantation.
  • The simulation suggests that a dose of 500-1000 mg of MPA twice daily is recommended initially post-transplant, but adjustments may be needed as patients progress in their recovery or if renal function changes.

Article Synopsis
  • The study develops a population pharmacokinetic (PK) model of mycophenolic acid (MPA) specifically for pediatric patients with various diseases, using electronic medical records and previous pharmacokinetic studies.
  • A non-linear mixed-effects modeling approach was utilized to estimate key PK parameters such as apparent clearance and volume of distribution while considering patient backgrounds and other variables.
  • Analysis of data from 249 patients led to a two-compartment model showing a nonlinear relationship between dosage and MPA exposure, with specific PK parameters estimated for different patient groups.

Background: The combination antimicrobial therapy consisting of amikacin, polymyxin-B, and sulbactam demonstrated synergy against multi-drug resistant .

Objectives: The objectives were to predict drug disposition and extrapolate their efficacy in the blood, lung, heart, muscle and skin tissues using a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling approach and to evaluate achievement of target pharmacodynamic (PD) indices against .

Methods: A PBPK model was initially developed for amikacin, polymyxin-B, and sulbactam in adult subjects, and then scaled to pediatrics, accounting for both renal and non-renal clearances.
