RESUMO
A fixed-dose combination (FDC) of 50 mg dolutegravir and 300 mg lamivudine is indicated for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. This analysis aimed to characterize the population pharmacokinetics (PK) of dolutegravir and lamivudine based on data from a phase 3 study (TANGO) in virologically suppressed adults living with HIV-1 switching to dolutegravir/lamivudine FDC. These analyses included 362 participants who contributed 2,629 dolutegravir and 2,611 lamivudine samples collected over 48 weeks. A one-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination parameterized by apparent oral clearance (CL/F), apparent volume of distribution (V/F), and absorption rate constant (Ka) described dolutegravir PK. Covariate search yielded body weight, bilirubin, and ethnicity as predictors of CL/F, and weight was predictive for V/F. The estimates of CL/F, V/F, and Ka were 0.858 L/h, 16.7 L, and 2.15 h-1, respectively. A two-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination parameterized by CL/F, apparent intercompartmental clearance (Q/F), apparent central volume of distribution (V2/F), apparent peripheral volume of distribution (V3/F), and Ka described lamivudine PK. Covariate search yielded eGFR and race as predictors of CL/F, and weight was predictive for V2/F. The estimated parameter values were CL/F = 19.6 L/h, Q/F = 2.97 L/h, V2/F = V3/F = 105 L, and Ka = 2.30 h-1. The steady-state prediction suggested that the effect of covariates dolutegravir and lamivudine exposures was small (<20%) and not clinically relevant. Therefore, no dose adjustments are recommended based on these analyses. The results support the use of dolutegravir/lamivudine FDC in the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults.CLINICAL TRIALSThis study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov as NCT03446573.

AIM: SWORD-1 and SWORD-2 phase 3 studies concluded that switching virologically suppressed participants with HIV-1 from their current three- or four-drug antiretroviral regimen (CAR) to the two-drug regimen of once-daily dolutegravir (DTG, 50 mg) and rilpivirine (RPV, 25 mg) was safe, well tolerated and noninferior for maintaining HIV-1 suppression at week 48 and highly efficacious to week 148. A secondary objective was to characterize drug exposure and exposure-efficacy/safety relationships. METHODS: Adults with plasma HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL were randomized to switch to once-daily DTG + RPV on day 1 or to continue CAR for 52 weeks before switching. Trough plasma concentrations (C0) of DTG and RPV, the proportion of participants with HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL and adverse events to week 100 were summarized and subjected to exposure-response analyses in the overall population, in the subset of participants who switched from CAR containing enzyme-inducing drugs and by age category (≥50 and <50 years). The relationship between C0avg (individual average C0 across visits) and efficacy/safety was investigated. RESULTS: Although week 2 DTG and RPV C0 were lower in participants switching from enzyme-inducing antiretroviral drugs, C0 and C0avg stayed above in vitro antiviral protein binding-adjusted IC90 and to week 100 with viral suppression >89%. DTG or RPV C0avg showed no relationship with virologic failures or safety. Participants ≥50 years had similar C0avg and safety response to younger participants. CONCLUSION: No clinically relevant relationship between DTG or RPV exposures and virologic or safety response was observed, confirming the DTG + RPV switch for participants as a safe and effective treatment.

A complete 2-drug regimen of dolutegravir at 50 mg and rilpivirine at 25 mg was approved to treat HIV-1 infection in virologically suppressed patients after demonstrating acceptable efficacy and tolerability. This study investigated the bioequivalence and pharmacokinetics of the fixed-dose combination tablet compared with those of separate tablets. Secondary endpoints were the tolerability and safety of the fixed-dose combination tablet. In this open-label, randomized-sequence, 2-way crossover trial, single doses of the fixed-dose combination tablet (the test treatment) and the combination of separate tablets (the reference treatment) were administered to healthy adults after a moderate-fat meal, with a 21-day washout between treatments. Pharmacokinetic samples were collected through 12 days after dosing. The primary endpoints were the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) and the maximum concentration of drug in plasma (Cmax). The study employed a prespecified sample size reestimation based on a blind midpoint review of Cmax variability to update the enrollment size to achieve statistical power. Of 118 participants enrolled, 113 received both treatments and underwent pharmacokinetic assessment. The 90% confidence intervals for the geometric least-squares mean ratios for the AUC from 0 h to infinity, the AUC from 0 h to the last quantifiable measurement, and Cmax (test treatment versus reference treatment) were within the bioequivalence range of 0.80 to 1.25 for both drugs, indicating bioequivalence. In this study, a single dose of either treatment was well tolerated overall, with 4% (n = 5) and 3% (n = 3) of participants reporting adverse events considered related to the test and reference treatments, respectively. The dolutegravir-rilpivirine fixed-dose combination tablet is bioequivalent to a combination of separate tablets, and no new safety signals emerged. (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under identifier NCT02741557.).

BACKGROUND & AIMS: GSK2336805 is a HCV NS5A inhibitor for chronic hepatitis C (CHC). In a prior Phase I study, GSK2336805 was well tolerated and had an antiviral and pharmacokinetic profile suitable for once-daily administration. This 28-day, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study evaluated once daily GSK2336805 60 mg alone or in combination with peginterferon alfa-2a (180 µg per week) and ribavirin (1000-1200 mg daily) (PEG/RIBA) in treatment-naive genotype 1 CHC subjects. METHODS: Five centres enrolled 16 subjects in the USA and Puerto Rico who received GSK2336805 + PEG/RIBA or placebo + PEG/RIBA. RESULTS: Following a single monotherapy dose of GSK2336805 on day 1, median reduction from baseline in HCV RNA was -2.96 log10 (N = 11) vs. -0.13 log10 (N = 4) for placebo. With the addition of PEG/RIBA on day 2, subjects receiving GSK2336805 exhibited greater decreases in viral load over the 28-day treatment period as compared with placebo. At day 28, median reduction from baseline was -4.86 log10 (N = 9) in the GSK2336805 + PEG/RIBA group as compared with -1.98 log10 (N = 4) in the placebo + PEG/RIBA group. At day 28, rapid virological response (RVR) occurred in 8/11 (73%) of the GSK2336805 + PEG/RIBA subjects as compared with 1/4 (25%) of the placebo + PEG/RIBA subjects. Adverse events were consistent with those reported in clinical trials of peginterferon and ribavirin, and no unique adverse events appeared to be associated with GSK2336805. CONCLUSIONS: GSK2336805 is a potent NS5A inhibitor that showed a substantial antiviral effect as a monotherapy and in combination with peginterferon and ribavirin.

AIM: Little attention has been paid to the effects of compliance and prescription practice on treatment outcome in HIV-infected children. In this context, an evaluation of the role of covariates on pharmacokinetics is required to establish the impact of differences in dosing regimens. Here we investigate whether a once daily dosing regimen of lamivudine provides comparable exposure to the currently approved paediatric regimen. METHODS: A hypothetical group of 180 patients between 3 months and 12 years old was used to evaluate the impact of body weight on systemic exposure to lamivudine. Simulation scenarios were evaluated using AUC and Cmax as parameters of interest. The analysis was performed using a population pharmacokinetic model previously implemented in nonmem v.6.2. RESULTS: The simulations show that once daily dosing of lamivudine yields comparable exposure to historical values observed in children and adults, both for liquid and solid dosage forms. Simulated steady-state AUC(0-24 h) and Cmax values after once daily doses ranged respectively from 9.9 mg l⻹ h and 1.9 mg l⻹ for children lighter than 14 kg to 13.75 mg l⻹ h and 3.0 mg l⻹ for children heavier than 30 kg. These values are comparable or higher than historical values observed after once daily dosing in children and adults. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings illustrate how dosing regimens can be evaluated taking into account the effects of developmental growth on drug disposition. Most importantly, they suggest that the reduction in dosing frequency to once daily leads to comparable lamivudine exposure, as observed after administration of a twice daily dosing regimen.

AIM: Lamivudine is used as first line therapy in HIV-infected children. Yet, like many other paediatric drugs, its dose rationale has been based on limited clinical data, without thorough understanding of the effects of growth on drug disposition. Here we use lamivudine to show how a comprehensive population pharmacokinetic model can account for the influence of demographic covariates on exposure (i.e. AUC and Cmax ). METHODS: Data from three paediatric trials were used to describe the pharmacokinetics across the overall population. Modelling was based on a non-linear mixed effects approach. A stepwise procedure was used for covariate model building. RESULTS: A one compartment model with first order elimination best described the pharmacokinetics of lamivudine in children. The effect of weight on clearance (CL) and volume of distribution (V) was characterized by an exponential function, with exponents of 0.705 and 0.635, respectively. For a child with median body weight (17.6 kg), CL and V were 16.5 (95% CI 15.2, 17.7) l h⻹ and 46.0 (95% CI 42.4, 49.5) l, respectively. There were no differences between formulations (tablet and solution). The predicted AUC(0,12 h) after twice daily doses of 4 mg kg⻹ ranged from 4.44 mg l⻹ h for children <14 kg to 7.25 mg l⻹ h for children >30 kg. CONCLUSIONS: The use of meta-analysis is critical to identify the correct covariate-parameter relationships, which must be assessed before a model is applied for predictive purposes (e.g. defining dosing recommendations for children). In contrast to prior modelling efforts, we show that the covariate distribution in the target population must be considered.

BACKGROUND: The World Health Organization (WHO) 2019 antiretroviral treatment guidelines recommend use of optimal treatment regimens in all populations. Dolutegravir-based regimens are the preferred first-line and second-line treatment in infants and children with HIV 4 weeks of age and above. There is an urgent need for optimal pediatric formulations of dolutegravir as single-entity (SE) and fixed-dose combination (FDC) to ensure correct dosing and adherence for swallowing and palatability. This article outlines the chronology of dolutegravir pediatric formulation development as granules and conventional and dispersible tablets in a total of 5 pharmacokinetic studies evaluating the relative bioavailability of dolutegravir SE and FDC formulations in healthy adults. METHODS: The relative bioavailability studies were 2-part, Phase I, open-label, randomized studies in healthy adults. Dolutegravir SE study compared conventional dolutegravir 50 and 25 mg with equivalent conventional 10-mg and dispersible 5-mg tablets, respectively. Subsequently, dolutegravir FDC study compared adult FDC of abacavir/dolutegravir/lamivudine and adult FDC of dolutegravir/lamivudine with their respective pediatric FDC formulations, taken as dispersion immediately or swallowed whole. RESULTS: As observed in previous studies, dolutegravir administered as dispersion (granules/dispersible tablets) showed relatively higher bioavailability compared with conventional tablets. The bioavailability of dolutegravir dispersible tablets (both SE and FDC) was approximately 1.6-fold higher when compared with conventional tablets. In addition, the bioavailability of abacavir/lamivudine was not impacted by dispersible formulation. CONCLUSIONS: These studies demonstrate the successful development of pediatric dolutegravir-containing formulations as SE and FDC that permit pediatric dosing in line with WHO recommendations.

Pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of abacavir 600 mg/dolutegravir 50 mg/lamivudine 300 mg were assessed in this phase 1, single-arm, open-label, single-dose study in fasted healthy male (n = 4) and female (n = 8) participants of Japanese heritage. Participants received a single dose of abacavir 600 mg/dolutegravir 50 mg/lamivudine 300 mg after an 8-hour fast, with safety assessments and blood samples for pharmacokinetic parameters collected through 72 hours after dosing. Geometric mean maximum plasma concentrations were 5.22 µg/mL (time to maximum concentration [tmax ], 1.01 hours) for abacavir, 4.13 µg/mL (tmax , 3.50 hours) for dolutegravir, and 3.35 µg/mL (tmax , 2.98 hours) for lamivudine. Geometric mean area under the concentration-time curve values were 18.20, 71.60, and 16.60 µg ⢠h/mL for abacavir, dolutegravir, and lamivudine, respectively. No adverse events were reported, and no clinically significant findings were observed in laboratory values, physical examinations, or 12-lead electrocardiographic parameters. Single-tablet administration of abacavir 600 mg/dolutegravir 50 mg/lamivudine 300 mg was well tolerated in Japanese participants. Exposure to abacavir and lamivudine was comparable with that seen in previous studies. A modest increase in exposure to dolutegravir vs previous clinical studies was observed but is not expected to impact the clinical management of HIV-1 or increase the risk for adverse events.

Dolutegravir 50 mg (DTG) and rilpivirine 25 mg (RPV) are a newly approved 2-drug regimen for the treatment of HIV in virally suppressed patients. A 2-part study evaluated the relative bioavailability and food effect of five experimental fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet formulations of DTG/RPV. When given with a moderate- or high-fat meal, the absorption of both DTG and RPV was increased, resulting in higher exposures. As per product labelling, DTG/RPV FDC should be taken with a meal.
RESUMO
In HIV-1-infected patients, virological failure can occur as a consequence of the mutations that accumulate in the viral genome that allow replication to continue in the presence of antiretrovirals (ARVs). The development of treatment-emergent resistance to an ARV can limit a patient's options for future therapy, prompting the need for ARV regimens that are resilient to the emergence of resistance. The genetic barrier to resistance refers to the number of mutations in an ARV's therapeutic target that are required to confer a clinically meaningful loss of susceptibility to the drug. The emergence of resistance can be affected by pharmacological aspects of the ARV, including its structure, inhibitory quotient, therapeutic index, and pharmacokinetic characteristics. Dolutegravir (DTG) has demonstrated a high barrier to resistance, including when used in a two-drug regimen (2DR) with lamivudine (3TC). In the GEMINI-1 and GEMINI-2 studies, DTG +3TC was noninferior to DTG + emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in treatment-naive participants, with similar proportions achieving HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL through 96 weeks. Furthermore, in the TANGO study, virological suppression was maintained at 48 weeks after switching to DTG +3TC from a tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)-based regimen compared with continuing a TAF-based regimen. Most other 2DRs with successful outcomes compared with three-drug regimens have been based on protease inhibitors (PIs); however, this class is associated with adverse metabolic effects and drug-drug interactions. In this review, we discuss the barrier to resistance in the context of a 2DR in which a boosted PI is replaced with DTG +3TC.

This single-dose study evaluated the bioequivalence, food effect, and safety of 2 experimental, 2-drug, fixed-dose formulations of 50 mg dolutegravir and 300 mg lamivudine (formulation AH and formulation AK) as compared with coadministration of single-entity tablets of 50 mg dolutegravir and 300 mg lamivudine (reference). In fasted subjects, formulation AH lamivudine exposure was similar to the reference; however, dolutegravir exposure was consistently higher in formulation AH, with area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) and maximum concentration (Cmax ) approximately 27% to 28% greater than reference. Formulation AK met bioequivalence standards to the reference for dolutegravir (AUC0-∞ and Cmax ) and lamivudine (AUC0-∞ and AUC0-t ) exposure; however, dolutegravir AUC0-t and lamivudine Cmax were approximately 16% and 32% higher than the reference, respectively. A high-fat meal increased dolutegravir AUC and Cmax by up to 33% and 21%, respectively, and decreased lamivudine Cmax by approximately 30%. Both test and reference formulations were well tolerated. The results support further development of formulation AK as a novel, 2-drug, fixed-dose combination tablet treatment for patients with HIV.

BACKGROUND: Primary analyses of the SWORD-1 and SWORD-2 trials at 48 weeks showed that switching to a two-drug regimen of dolutegravir plus rilpivirine was non-inferior to continuing a standard three-drug or four-drug antiretroviral regimen for maintenance of virological suppression in people with HIV-1. Here, we present efficacy and safety data from the 100-week analysis of the trials. METHODS: SWORD-1 and SWORD-2 are identically designed, randomised, open-label phase 3 studies at 65 centres in 13 countries and 60 centres in 11 countries, respectively. Adults aged 18 years or older who were on a standard three-drug or four-drug antiretroviral therapy (ART) and had had fewer than 50 HIV-1 RNA copies per mL of plasma for at least 6 months were randomly assigned (1:1) to 50 mg dolutegravir plus 25 mg rilpivirine orally once daily (early-switch group) or to continue their standard regimen for 52 weeks before switching to the dolutegravir plus rilpivirine combination (ie, the late-switch group). In this analysis of week 100 data, the efficacy endpoint of interest was the proportion of participants with fewer than 50 copies of HIV-1 RNA per mL of plasma (per the US Food and Drug Administration snapshot algorithm). This outcome was assessed in all randomly assigned participants who received at least one dose of the study drug. Data were analysed after the last participant completed week 100 (Sept 15, 2017) and verified through the data cutoff (Nov 21, 2017). SWORD-1 and SWORD-2 are registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, numbers NCT02429791 and NCT02422797, respectively. FINDINGS: 513 participants were randomly assigned to dolutegravir plus rilpivirine (ie, the early-switch group) and 511 to continue their standard ART regimen, 477 of whom then switched to dolutegravir plus rilpivirine at week 52 (ie, the late-switch group). At week 100, 456 (89% [95% CI 86-92]) of 513 participants in the early-switch group and 444 (93% [91-95]) of 477 in the late-switch group had fewer than 50 HIV-1 RNA copies per mL. Drug-related adverse events occurred in 103 (20%) participants in the early-switch group and 58 (12%) in the late-switch group. The most common drug-related adverse events were headache (11 participants in the early-switch group [2%] vs eight [2%] in the late-switch group) and nausea (eight [2%] vs five [1%]). INTERPRETATION: The combination of dolutegravir plus rilpivirine sustained virological suppression of HIV-1, was associated with a low frequency of virological failure, and had a favourable safety profile, which support its use as a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-sparing and protease inhibitor-sparing alternative to three-drug regimens that reduces overall exposure to ART.

Aplaviroc (GW873140) binds specifically to human cellular CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) and demonstrates potent anti-human immunodeficiency virus activity in vitro in the subnanomolar range. In vitro studies show that aplaviroc selectively inhibits the binding of a particular monoclonal antibody, 45531, to CCR5. Based on this observation, a flow cytometry-based assay was developed to determine percentage CCR5 receptor occupancy (RO). CCR5 receptor occupancy was aplaviroc concentration-dependent and related to anti-human immunodeficiency virus activity in vitro. In the clinical setting, CCR5 receptor occupancy in peripheral blood was >98% in all subjects within 2 to 3 hours of dosing, which is consistent with the peak plasma concentrations of drug. Longitudinal analysis in the drug washout period revealed the time to 50% CCR5 receptor occupancy averaged >100 hours, in both human immunodeficiency virus-positive and human immunodeficiency virus-negative subjects, substantially longer than the plasma pharmacokinetic half-life of 3 hours. The duration of CCR5 receptor occupancy appeared to be dose-dependent and associated with antiviral activity as measured by plasma human immunodeficiency virus RNA nadir following 10 days of multiple dose administration. These data demonstrate that the analysis of CCR5 receptor occupancy, in addition to conventional plasma-based pharmacokinetic measures, provides an informative tool to assist in evaluating the pharmacodynamic and antiviral effects of cellular CC chemokine receptor antagonists.

AIMS: A number of drugs are substrates or inhibitors of the efflux transporter breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP; ABCG2), which can limit systemic exposure by reducing absorption and/or increasing biliary elimination. The identification of a BCRP-selective clinical probe drug would provide a useful tool to understand the effect of genetic polymorphisms and transporter-based drug interactions on drug pharmacokinetics. The aim of this study was to assess the utility of nitrofurantoin as a clinical probe substrate for BCRP activity by evaluating the impact of genetic variation on nitrofurantoin pharmacokinetics. METHODS: Nitrofurantoin pharmacokinetics were studied in an open-label, single-oral dose (100 mg) study in 36 male Chinese subjects who were pre-screened for ABCG2 421 CC, CA and AA genotypes (n = 12 each). Plasma and urine concentrations of nitrofurantoin were determined by LC/MS/MS and LC/UV respectively. anova was used to compare pharmacokinetic parameters among genotypes. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in nitrofurantoin pharmacokinetics among the genotypic cohorts. The geometric mean nitrofurantoin plasma AUC((0-infinity)) (95% confidence interval) values were 2.21 (2.00, 2.45), 2.42 (2.11, 2.78) and 2.32 (1.99, 2.70) microg h ml(-1) and half-life values were 0.79 (0.59, 1.0), 0.76 (0.64, 0.89) and 0.72 (0.62, 0.84) h for ABCG2 421 genotypes CC, CA and AA, respectively. The percentage of dose excreted unchanged in the urine was 43, 44 and 39%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The ABCG2 C421A polymorphism had no effect on nitrofurantoin plasma and urine pharmacokinetic parameters in healthy Chinese subjects. These results indicate that nitrofurantoin is not a suitable clinical probe substrate for assessing BCRP activity.

In children aged ≤4 years, the relative bioavailability of lamivudine oral solution was 37% lower than that of a tablet formulation. An open-label, four-way crossover study was conducted in healthy adults to evaluate the effect of sorbitol, a common liquid excipient, on the pharmacokinetics of lamivudine oral solution (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier, NCT02634073). Sixteen subjects were randomized to one of four sequences consisting of four doses of lamivudine 300 mg (10 mg/mL) alone or with sorbitol 3.2, 10.2, or 13.4 g. Sorbitol 3.2, 10.2, and 13.4 g decreased lamivudine maximum concentration (Cmax ) by 28%, 52%, and 55% and area under the concentration-time curve from time 0 to 24 h (AUC0-24 ) by 20%, 39%, and 44%, respectively. Three subjects (19%) reported five nonserious adverse events (one drug-related). The dose-dependent effects of sorbitol on lamivudine Cmax and AUC0-24 reveal an absorption-based interaction that may decrease lamivudine exposure in patients coadministered sorbitol-containing medicines.

Aplaviroc is a novel CCR5 antagonist, a class of compounds under investigation as viral entry inhibitors for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus infection. A modified Cooperstown 5+1 cocktail was used to assess the drug interaction potential of aplaviroc. Fifteen healthy subjects were administered single oral doses of caffeine (CYP1A2), warfarin (CYP2C9), omeprazole (CYP2C19), dextromethorphan (CYP2D6), and midazolam (CYP3A) alone (reference treatment) and during steady-state administration of aplaviroc (400 mg every 12 hours, test treatment). Metabolite-to-parent area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) ratios (paraxanthine/caffeine and 5-hydroxyomeprazole/omeprazole), oral clearance (S-warfarin), AUC (midazolam), and metabolite-to-parent urinary excretion ratio (dextrorphan/dextromethorphan) were determined. The test-to-reference treatment ratios (geometric mean ratio and 90% confidence interval) were caffeine, 1.06 (0.97-1.17); S-warfarin, 0.93 (0.76-1.15); omeprazole, 1.07 (0.98-1.16); dextromethorphan, 1.17 (0.97-1.42); midazolam, 1.30 (1.04-1.63). No significant inhibition of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, or CYP2D6 enzyme activity was observed. Mild inhibition of CYP3A isozymes should not preclude the use of concomitant CYP3A substrates in future clinical studies with aplaviroc.

OBJECTIVE: 873140 is a spirodiketopiperazine CCR5 antagonist with prolonged receptor binding and potent antiviral activity in vitro. This study evaluated plasma HIV RNA, safety, and pharmacokinetics following short-term monotherapy in HIV-infected adults. DESIGN: Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled multi-center trial. METHODS: Treatment-naive or experienced HIV-infected subjects with R5-tropic virus, CD4 cell count nadir > 200 x 10 cells/l, viral load > 5000 copies/ml and not receiving antiretroviral therapy for the preceding 12 weeks were enrolled. Forty subjects were randomized to one of four cohorts (200 mg QD, 200 mg BID, 400 mg QD, 600 mg BID) with 10 subjects (eight active, two placebo) in each cohort, and received treatment for 10 days. Serial HIV RNA, pharmacokinetics, and safety evaluations were performed through day 24. RESULTS: Of the 40 subjects, 21 were treatment-experienced; 35 were male, 20 were non-white, and eight were coinfected with hepatitis C virus. Median baseline HIV RNA ranged from 4.26 log10 to 4.46 log10. 873140 was generally well tolerated with no drug-related discontinuations. The most common adverse events were grade 1 gastrointestinal complaints that generally resolved within 1-3 days on therapy. No clinically significant abnormalities were observed on electrocardiogram or in laboratory parameters. Mean log changes in HIV RNA at nadir, and the percentage of subjects with > 1 log10 decrease were -0.12 (0%) for placebo, -0.46 (17%) for 200 mg once daily, -1.23 (75%) for 200 mg twice daily, -1.03 (63%) for 400 mg once daily, and -1.66 (100%) for 600 mg twice daily. An Emax relationship was observed between the area under the 873140 plasma concentration-time curve and change in HIV RNA. CONCLUSIONS: 873140 demonstrated potent antiretroviral activity and was well tolerated. These results support further evaluation in Phase 2b/3 studies.

JNJ-56914845 (GSK2336805) is a hepatitis C virus nonstructural protein 5A inhibitor under development for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) infection. This open-label, parallel-group, 2-part study evaluated the pharmacokinetics and safety of a single oral 60 mg dose of JNJ-56914845 in 4 cohorts: healthy, mild, moderate, and severe hepatic impairment (n = 8/cohort). Severity of hepatic impairment was categorized using Child-Pugh score, and the healthy subjects were matched for age, sex, body mass index, and smoking status to the moderate hepatic impairment cohort. JNJ-56914845 plasma AUC0-∞ was 26%, 52%, and 45% lower in subjects with mild, moderate, and severe hepatic impairment, respectively, relative to healthy subjects with no difference in half-life among the groups. The apparent oral clearance and volume of distribution were higher in subjects with hepatic impairment. The lower plasma concentrations were largely explained by decreased plasma protein binding in hepatically impaired subjects. One subject with severe hepatic impairment had 2 non-drug-related serious adverse events: an esophageal bleed requiring hospitalization, encephalopathy. Although hepatically impaired subjects have lower exposures than healthy matched controls, they had similar or slightly higher exposures than those observed in past studies of noncirrhotic, CHC patients, suggesting that no dose adjustments for hepatic impairment will be needed.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations are used as a surrogate measure of central nervous system (CNS) availability of drugs. Systemically administered drugs can reach CSF either directly via passage across the choroid plexus, or indirectly by passage across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) followed by diffusion/convection transport from the interstitial fluid (ISF) to CSF. This review focuses on the physiological and pharmacokinetic variables that must be considered in the interpretation of the CSF-to-plasma concentration gradient. A survey of the literature suggests that the equilibrated CSF-to-unbound plasma concentration ratio reflects the balance between drug permeability across the blood-CNS barriers and the sink action of CSF turnover. As lipophilicity and membrane permeability increase, the CSF-to-plasma unbound concentration ratio rises from well below 1 toward unity. Deviations are noted in that lipophilic drugs highly bound to CSF proteins had ratio exceeding unity, and lipophilic drugs that were efflux transporter substrates exhibited ratios well less than unity. Drug concentration gradients have been observed between drug in the ISF and CSF, the direction of which depends on the CSF sink action and drug permeability/transport across the BBB and choroid plexus. Despite the complexity of CSF pharmacokinetics, for some drugs a rapid kinetic equilibrium exists between the CSF and biophase, such that CSF concentration can serve as a proximate reference for detailed investigation of factors affecting the intrinsic pharmacodynamics of a centrally acting drug. The applicability and limitations of CSF sampling for assessing the CNS availability and concentration-effect relationship of drug candidates with varying physicochemical properties during drug discovery and development is discussed.

This Phase I, randomized, open-label study evaluated the gastric pH-altering effects of omeprazole, a proton pump inhibitor, and the CYP3A enzyme/P-glycoprotein (Pgp)-inhibitory effects of ritonavir, an HIV protease inhibitor, on the pharmacokinetics and safety of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) non-structural protein 5A (NS5A) inhibitor GSK2336805 in healthy male and female subjects. Co-administration of GSK2336805 60 mg with omeprazole decreased GSK2336805 plasma AUC(0-∞) by 10% and Cmax by 18%; no marked effect was observed on t½ . Co-administration of GSK2336805 30 mg with ritonavir increased GSK2336805 plasma AUC(0-∞) by 52%, Cmax by 43%, and t½ by 40%; CL/F was decreased by 34%. All adverse events were minor in intensity. The gastric acid-suppressive effect of omeprazole had minimal impact on the extent and rate of GSK2336805 absorption in vivo; therefore, GSK2336805 may be co-administered with omeprazole without concern about lower GSK2336805 exposures and compromised antiviral efficacy. The modest increases in AUC and Cmax following co-administration of GSK2336805 plus ritonavir suggest that GSK2336805 when given concomitantly with a single CYP3A/Pgp inhibiting drug will not likely require dose adjustment. Final dose recommendation will be based on GSK2336805 efficacy and safety profiles from Phase III trials in HCV-infected patients.
