RESUMO

BACKGROUND: A novel buprenorphine (BUP) extended-release formulation (BUP-XR) produced as a lipid-encapsulated, low viscosity BUP suspension for subcutaneous (SC) injection to control pain was evaluated for pharmacokinetics and safety in four adult male cynomolgus monkeys. METHODS: Each animal was given 0.2 mg/kg reformulated BUP-XR SC. Clinical observations were made during the course of the study. Blood samples were obtained from each animal before BUP-XR administration, 6, 24, 48, 72, and 96 h post-BUP-XR injection. Plasma levels of buprenorphine were analyzed using HPLC-MS/MS. The PK values calculated included peak plasma concentration of the BUP analyte, time to peak plasma concentration, plasma half-life, area under the plasma concentration-time curve, clearance, apparent volume of distribution, and elimination rate constant (Cmax , Tmax , T½ , AUC0-t , CL, Vd, and Ke, respectively). RESULTS: Observable adverse clinical signs were not detected. BUP concentration peaked from 6 to 48 h, then declined in a linear fashion. Quantifiable plasma BUP was measured in all monkeys at all time points. Results indicate that a single BUP-XR dose at 0.2 mg/kg can reliably provide plasma levels of BUP reported in the literature to be therapeutically relevant for up to 96 h. CONCLUSIONS: Because of the lack of any clinical observations or adverse effects at the injection site or absence of observable abnormal behaviors, it may be concluded that the use of BUP-XR is safe and efficacious in this species of non-human primate at the dose regimen described in this study for up to 96 h post-administration.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The sedating effect of first generation H(1)-antihistamines has been associated with their ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and lack of efflux by P-glycoprotein (Pgp). Second generation H(1)-antihistamines are relatively free of sedation and their limited brain penetration has been suggested to arise from Pgp-mediated efflux. The objective of this work was to evaluate the role of Pgp in brain penetration of first and second generation antihistamines. METHODS: Potential of antihistamines to be Pgp substrates was tested in vitro using Madin Darby canine kidney cells transfected with human Pgp. The role of Pgp in limiting brain penetration of antihistamines was tested by using the in situ brain perfusion technique. RESULTS: Majority of antihistamines were Pgp substrates in vitro. Following in situ brain perfusion, the first generation antihistamines substantially penetrated into rat brain independently from Pgp function. The second generation antihistamines terfenadine and loratadine, achieved substantial brain penetration, which was further enhanced by Pgp inhibition by cyclosporin A (CSA). In contrast, fexofenadine and cetirizine, penetrated brain poorly regardless of CSA administration. CONCLUSIONS: Antihistamines greatly differ in their ability to cross the BBB as well as in the role of Pgp in limiting their transport into the CNS in vivo.

RESUMO

The objectives of this study were to (1) characterize MDR-MDCK monolayers as an in vitro model to predict brain uptake potential; (2) examine the ability of MDR-MDCK monolayers to identify the brain uptake potential of compounds that interact with P-glycoprotein (P-gp). The study measured the bi-directional transport of 28 compounds across MDR-MDCK monolayers. The brain uptake of a subset of the compounds was determined in the rat brain perfusion model. Drug concentrations were analyzed by LC-MS-MS. CNS-positive drugs exhibited absorptive permeability coefficients (Papp, A-B) values ranging from 3.4 x 10(-6) to 20.2 x 10(-6) cm/s; whereas CNS-negative drugs showed Papp (A-B) ranging from 0.03 x 10(-6) to 0.83 x 10(-6) cm/s. Inhibition of P-gp by cyclosporin A (CsA) significantly reduced secretory flux of compounds known to be P-pg substrates, but only enhanced the absorptive flux of compounds with high efflux ratio (>100). In vitro results were confirmed by brain perfusion studies on selected compounds. MDR-MDCK monolayers can be used to classify compounds into CNS-positive or CNS-negative based on the permeability coefficients (Papp, A-B). Under our experimental conditions, compounds with Papp (A-B)>3 x 10(-6) cm/s have high brain uptake potential; compounds with Papp (A-B)<1 x 10(-6) cm/s are unable to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB); the brain uptake of compounds with Papp (A-B)<1 x 10(-6) cm/s and a P-gp-mediated efflux ratio of >100 may be enhanced by inhibiting P-gp.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a method for separately evaluating the roles of gastrointestinal absorption and hepatic extraction as barriers to oral bioavailability (BA). The method was validated using five reference compounds known to have different absorption and hepatic extraction properties. Dose-dependence was also investigated for one reference compound. METHODS: Five reference compounds, amoxicillin, antipyrine, atenolol, propranolol, and testosterone, were administered as a cassette intravenouly (IV), via the hepatoportal vein (IPV), intraduodenally (ID), and intracolonically (IC) to male Sprague-Dawley rats. Blood samples were taken at nine time points, and the compounds were extracted from plasma using solid phase extraction. Plasma concentrations of each compound were determined using Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). Pharmacokinetic parameters including bioavailability were calculated for each compound for each route of administration. RESULTS: Testosterone BA was less than 10% by ID, IC, and IPV routes, due to high hepatic extraction, consistent with its high systemic clearance (63 ml x min(-1) x kg(-1)) and short terminal plasma half-life (23 min). The IPV BA of amoxicillin was 95%+/-6% indicating the absence of hepatic extraction in the rat, but with an ID BA of approximately 39% suggesting incomplete GI absorption to be the main barrier to bioavailability. Absorption was poor from the colon, demonstrating site-dependence consistent with literature reports of site-dependent absorption. Low oral BA of propranolol was due in part to first-pass hepatic extraction (IPV BA of 36%). The IPV BA of propranolol was dose-dependent, most likely due to saturation of the P450 enzymes. Atenolol was incompletely bioavailable due to incomplete intestinal absorption, with no contribution of hepatic first-pass metabolism. Antipyrine was highly bioavailable by all routes. CONCLUSIONS: This in vivo rat model is demonstrated to be useful for identifying and quantifying the causes of incomplete bioavailabilty. It separately evaluates intestinal absorption, hepatic extraction, and site-dependent absorption. Concentration-dependence of saturable processes can also be examined.
