ABSTRACT
Roscovitine (Seliciclib), a new protein kinase inhibitor, was administered orally to adult patients with cystic fibrosis for the first time in the ROSCO-CF trial, a dose-escalation, phase IIa, randomized, controlled trial. Extensive pharmacokinetic sampling was performed up to 12 h after the first oral dose. Roscovitine and its main metabolite M3 were quantified by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. The pharmacokinetics analyses were performed by non-linear mixed effects modelling. Monte Carlo simulations were performed to assess the impact of dose on the pharmacokinetics of oral roscovitine. Twenty-three patients received oral doses ranging from 200 to 800 mg of roscovitine and 138 data points were available for both roscovitine and M3 concentrations. The pharmacokinetics was best described by a two-compartment parent-metabolite model, with a complex saturable absorption process modelled as the sum of Gaussian inverse density functions. The Monte Carlo simulations showed a dose-dependent and saturable first-pass effect leading to pre-systemic formation of M3. The treatment with proton-pump inhibitors reduced the rate of absorption of oral roscovitine. The pharmacokinetics of oral roscovitine in adult patients with cystic fibrosis was non-linear and showed significant inter-individual variability. A repeat-dose study will be required to assess the inter-occasional variability of its pharmacokinetics.
