ABSTRACT
Information on the conditions under which drugs are transferred from the stomach through the upper small intestine after a high-calorie, high-fat meal is very limited. To simulate the drug presence after disintegration and arrival in the antral region, paracetamol solution and Sporanox® amorphous solid dispersion pellets at two dose levels were administered to the antrum of 8 healthy adults 30 min after administration of a high-calorie, high-fat meal on a crossover basis. The overall median buffer capacity of antral contents was estimated to be 18.0 and 24.0 mmol/ml/ΔpH when titrating with NaOH and HCl, respectively. The corresponding values for the contents of upper the small intestine were 14.0 and 16.8 mmol/ml/ΔpH, respectively. The drug transfer process from the antrum through the upper small intestine occurred with apparent first-order kinetics. The best estimate for the antral emptying half-life was 39min and 45min for paracetamol and itraconazole, respectively, the apparent volume of contents of the upper small intestine was more than double compared with previously reported values in the fasted state, the half-life of drug elimination from the upper small intestine was similar to recent estimates for highly permeable drugs in the fasted state, and the apparent volume of antral contents during the first couple of hours post drug administration was 303mL. Information collected in this study could increase the reliability of in silico and/or in vitro modelling approaches applied in clinical drug development.
