RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Nonclinical evaluation of the cardiovascular effects of novel chemical or biological entities (NCE, NBEs) is crucial for supporting first-in-human clinical trials. One important aspect of these evaluations is the assessment of potential QT/QTc prolongation risk, as drug-induced QT prolongation can have catastrophic effects. The recent publication of E14/S7B Q&As allows for the situational incorporation of nonclinical QTc data as part of an integrated risk assessment for a Thorough QT (TQT) waiver application provided certain best practice criteria are met. Recent publications provided detailed characterization of nonclinical QTc telemetry data collected from the commonly used Latin square study design. METHODS: To understand whether data from alternate telemetry study designs were sufficient to serve as part of the E14/S7B integrated risk assessment, we report the performance and translational sensitivity to identify clinical risk of QTc prolongation risk for an ascending dose telemetry design. RESULTS: The data demonstrated low variability in QTci interval within animals from day to day, indicating a well-controlled study environment and limited concern for uncontrolled effects across dosing days. Historical study variances of the ascending dose design with n = 4 subjects, measured by least significant difference (LSD) and root mean square error (RMSE) values, were low enough to detect a + 10 ms QTci interval change, and the median minimum detectable difference (MDD) for QTci interval changes was <10 ms. Furthermore, concentration-QTci (C-QTci) assessments to determine +10 ms QTci increases for known hERG inhibitors were comparable to clinical CC values listed in the E14/S7B training materials, supporting the use of the ascending dose design in an E14/S7B integrated risk assessment. DISCUSSION: These findings suggest that the ascending dose design can be a valuable tool in nonclinical evaluation of QT/QTc prolongation risk and the support of TQT waiver applications.

Precision dosing strategies require accounting for between-patient variability in pharmacokinetics (PK), affecting drug exposure, and in pharmacodynamics (PD), affecting response achieved at the same drug concentration at the site of action. Although liquid biopsy for assessing different levels of molecular drug targets has yet to be established, individual characterization of drug elimination pathways using liquid biopsy has recently been demonstrated. The feasibility of applying this approach in conjunction with modeling tools to guide individual dosing remains unexplored. In this study, we aimed to individualize physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models based on liquid biopsy measurements in plasma from 25 donors with different grades of renal function who were previously administered oral midazolam as part of a microdose cocktail. Virtual twin models were constructed based on demographics, renal function, and hepatic expression of relevant pharmacokinetic pathways projected from liquid biopsy output. Simulated exposure (AUC) to midazolam was in agreement with observed data (AFE = 1.38, AAFE = 1.78). Simulated AUC variability with three dosing approaches indicated higher variability with uniform dosing (14-fold) and stratified dosing (13-fold) compared with individualized dosing informed by liquid biopsy (fivefold). Further, exosome screening revealed mRNA expression of 532 targets relevant to drug metabolism and disposition (169 enzymes and 361 transporters). Data related to these targets can be used to further individualize PBPK models for pathways relevant to PK of other drugs. This study provides additional verification of liquid biopsy-informed PBPK modeling approaches, necessary to advance strategies that seek to achieve precise dosing from the start of treatment.

BACKGROUND: Next generation, higher valency pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) are assessed and licensed by comparing the immune response across serotypes shared with the PCVs that are standard of care for prevention of pneumococcal disease. METHODS: Using a previously qualified method we predicted the serotype-specific vaccine effectiveness (VE) against invasive pneumococcal disease of V114 and PCV20 for the serotypes shared with PCV13 in an EU, Russian, and Australian pediatric population that is recommended to receive a 2 + 1 dosing regimen. RESULTS: The estimated protective antibody concentrations ranged from 0.03 (serotype 23F) to 1.49 µg/mL (serotype 19F). Predicted VE values for V114 ranged from 79% (serotype 5) to 100% (serotype 23F). V114 had comparable effectiveness to PCV13 for all but one of shared serotypes, with predicted higher effectiveness (in V114) against serotype 3 (93% vs. 65%). Predicted VE values for PCV20 ranged from 47% (serotype 3) to 91% (serotype 14). PCV20 predicted VE was lower than PCV13's for serotypes 4, 19F, 23F, 1, 3, 5, 6A, 7F, and 19A. CONCLUSIONS: Predicted serotype-specific VE values suggest that, with a 2 + 1 dosing regimen, V114 will have greater effectiveness than PCV20 against PCV13 serotypes, particularly for the still-prevalent serotype 3. Real-world VE studies will ultimately provide clarity on the effectiveness of novel PCVs and support further confidence in and/or improvements to modeling efforts.
Pediatric pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) were first introduced in Europe in the early 2000s and their incorporation into national immunization programs has helped decrease the incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in Europe and globally. However, some IPD persists, due both to the emergence of non-vaccine pneumococcal serotypes and to the persistence of certain vaccine-targeted serotypes. Higher valency vaccines have been developed to help prevent IPD arising from these serotypes. The goal of the present study is to employ a previously developed model to predict the serotype-specific vaccine effectiveness of higher valency PCVs in a pediatric population that is recommended to receive a 2 + 1 dosing schedule.

BACKGROUND: Next-generation, higher-valency pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs), 15-valent PCV V114 and 20-valent PCV (PCV20), have been assessed by comparing their immune responses across serotypes shared with the 13-valent PCV (PCV13). Without efficacy or real-world vaccine effectiveness (VE) it becomes important to relate IgG titers to VE to aid in the interpretation of the immune response elicited by V114 and PCV20. METHODS: We estimated the protective antibody concentrations for each serotype in 7-valent PCV (PCV7) and PCV13 which were then used to predict the serotype-specific VE for each PCV7 and PCV13 non PCV7 serotype present in V114 and PCV20. RESULTS: The predicted effectiveness of V114 was comparable to PCV7 and PCV13 for 11 of the 13 shared serotypes (1, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 9 V, 14, 18C, 19A, 19F, and 23F), with improved effectiveness against serotype 3 and decreased effectiveness against serotype 6A. PCV20 had predicted effectiveness comparable to PCV7 and PCV13 for 7 of the 13 shared serotypes (5, 6A, 7F, 9 V, 18C, 19F, and 23F), with decreased effectiveness against the remaining serotypes (1, 3, 4, 6B, 14, and 19A). CONCLUSIONS: Prediction of serotype-specific VE values suggests that V114 retains greater effectiveness than PCV20 toward most serotypes present in PCV7 and PCV13.
Pediatric pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) first became available in 2000, when the seven-valent PCV (PCV7) was approved. Since then, PCV7 has been replaced by higher-valency vaccines, including the ten-valent (PCV10) and thirteen-valent (PCV13) vaccines and, more recently, fifteen- and twenty-valent vaccines (V114 and PCV20, respectively). The increase in valency provides broader serotype coverage against invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD) in children. However, IPD due to serotypes contained in PCV7 and PCV13 continue to be observed. In the current study, we used a previously published method to estimate the vaccine effectiveness of V114 and PCV20 in a US and Puerto Rican pediatric population that is recommended to receive a 3 + 1 dosing schedule.

BACKGROUND: We studied the pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety of 100-mg doravirine and doravirine/lamivudine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate fixed-dose combination (100/300/300 mg DOR FDC) treatment in adolescents with HIV-1. METHODS: Adolescents ages 12 to younger than 18 years were enrolled in 2 sequential cohorts. Cohort 1 evaluated intensive PK and short-term safety of 100-mg single-dose doravirine in adolescents ≥35 kg. Cohort 2 participants either initiated treatment with DOR FDC (antiretroviral (ARV)-naïve) or switched to DOR FDC from a previous ARV regimen (virologically suppressed). The first 10 Cohort 2 participants had intensive PK evaluations, and safety, sparse PK, and HIV RNA were assessed through week 24. RESULTS: Fifty-five adolescents, median age 15.0 years and baseline weight 51.5 kg, were enrolled. Nine participants completed Cohort 1 PK assessments (8 of the 9 participants weighed ≥45 kg) and 45 initiated study drug in Cohort 2. The doravirine geometric mean (GM) AUC 0-∞ was 34.8 µMâhour, and the GM C 24 was 514 nM after a single dose, with a predicted steady-state GM C 24,ss,pred of 690 nM. Cohort 2 enrolled adolescents weighing ≥45 kg. Plasma concentrations of doravirine, tenofovir, and lamivudine achieved by Cohort 2 participants were similar to those reported in adults. No drug-related serious or grade 3 or 4 adverse events occurred. Forty-two of 45 participants (93.3%; 95% CI: [81.7, 98.6]) achieved or maintained HIV-1 RNA <40 copies/mL. CONCLUSIONS: Doravirine and DOR FDC achieved target PK in adolescents with HIV-1. DOR FDC was well-tolerated and maintained excellent virologic efficacy through 24 weeks, offering a favorable option for adolescents.

The strength of the immune response, as measured by antibody concentrations, varies between pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs). Linking immunogenicity and effectiveness is necessary to assess whether changes in immune response from currently recommended PCVs to next-generation vaccines could impact effectiveness. Simulated reverse cumulative distribution curves were generated using published serotype-specific IgG concentrations with placebo or PCV7. This was combined with the published estimates of serotype-specific vaccine effectiveness of PCV7 against invasive pneumococcal disease to estimate the protective antibody concentration for each serotype in PCV7. Then, based on the published serotype-specific IgG concentrations in PCV13 recipients, reverse cumulative distribution curves were generated for the serotypes shared between PCV13 and PCV7. These estimated protective antibody concentration values were then used to predict the vaccine effectiveness of PCV13. The results were compared to published aggregate values for vaccine effectiveness. The aggregate median predicted vaccine effectiveness values were similar to previously reported observed values for the United Kingdom (93% versus 90%), Australia (71% versus 70%), and Germany (91% versus 90%). These results demonstrate that IgG concentrations of next-generation PCVs can be used to generate reliable estimates of vaccine effectiveness for serotypes shared with established PCVs.
RESUMEN
Disrupted tau proteostasis and transneuronal spread is a pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease. Neurodegenerative diseases remain an unmet medical need and novel disease modifying therapeutics are paramount. Our objective was to develop a mechanistic mathematical model to enhance our understanding of tau antibody pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in animals and humans. A physiologically-based pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PBPK-PD) modeling approach was employed to support the preclinical development and clinical translation of therapeutic antibodies targeting tau for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. The pharmacokinetics of a tau antibody was evaluated in rat and non-human primate microdialysis studies. Model validation for humans was performed using publicly available clinical data for gosuranemab. In-silico analyses were performed to predict tau engagement in human brain for a range of tau antibody affinities and various dosing regimens. PBPK-PD modeling enabled a quantitative understanding for the relationship between dose, affinity, and target engagement, which supported lead candidate optimization and predictions of clinically efficacious dosing regimens.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The potential impact of new pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) is assessed by using immune responses to predict their effectiveness against invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). This analysis predicted the serotype-specific effectiveness against IPD of a new 15-valent PCV (V114) for the serotypes shared with a 13-valent PCV (PCV13), in a US pediatric population given a 3 + 1 dosing regimen. METHODS: Beginning with the known serotype-specific antibody concentrations after vaccination with placebo, 7-valent PCV (PCV7) and PCV13, reverse cumulative distribution curves were used, along with published serotype-specific vaccine effectiveness of PCV7 and PCV13, to derive a protective antibody concentration (Cp) for each PCV13 serotype in V114. Serotype-specific effectiveness was predicted using the Cp estimates and the respective serotype-specific antibody concentrations of placebo and V114 recipients in recent pediatric clinical trials. RESULTS: Predicted serotype-specific V114 effectiveness values ranged from 86% to 99% for PCV7 serotypes and from 59% to 97% for (non-PCV7) PCV13 serotypes. CONCLUSIONS: V114 serotype-specific effectiveness against IPD in a US pediatric population was predicted to be largely comparable to that of PCV7 and PCV13 for shared serotypes, with models suggesting likelihood of high overall benefit gained from increased serotype 3 effectiveness, and additional protection against serotypes 22 F and 33 F.

Coproporphyrin I (CPI) is an endogenous biomarker of organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B transporter (OATP1B). CPI plasma baseline was reported to increase with severity of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Further, ratio of CPI area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUCR) in the presence/absence of OATP1B inhibitor rifampin was higher in patients with CKD compared with healthy participants, in contrast to pitavastatin (a clinical OATP1B probe). This study investigated mechanism(s) contributing to altered CPI baseline in patients with CKD by extending a previously developed physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model to this patient population. CKD-related covariates were evaluated in a stepwise manner on CPI fraction unbound in plasma (fu,p ), OATP1B-mediated hepatic uptake clearance (CLactive ), renal clearance (CLR ), and endogenous synthesis (ksyn ). The CPI model successfully recovered increased baseline and rifampin-mediated AUCR in patients with CKD by accounting for the following disease-related changes: 13% increase in fu,p , 29% and 39% decrease in CLactive in mild and moderate to severe CKD, respectively, decrease in CLR proportional to decline in glomerular filtration rate, and 27% decrease in ksyn in severe CKD. Almost complete decline in CPI renal elimination in severe CKD increased its fraction transported by OATP1B, rationalizing differences in the CPI-rifampin interaction observed between healthy participants and patients with CKD. In conclusion, mechanistic modeling performed here supports CKD-related decrease in OATP1B function to inform prospective PBPK modeling of OATP1B-mediated drug-drug interaction in these patients. Monitoring of CPI allows detection of CKD-drug interaction risk for OATP1B drugs with combined hepatic and renal elimination which may be underestimated by extrapolating the interaction risk based on pitavastatin data in healthy participants.

PURPOSE/BACKGROUND: This study was designed as an early assessment of the safety of the orexin receptor antagonist suvorexant, but also included exploratory assessments of balance and psychomotor performance that are the focus of this report. METHODS/PROCEDURES: This was a double-blind, randomized, 3-period, crossover, phase 1 study. Balance and psychomotor performance were evaluated during the night in 12 healthy elderly participants after bedtime administration of suvorexant 30 mg (a supratherapeutic dose), the GABAergic agonist zolpidem 5 mg (the recommended dose in the elderly), or placebo. Balance (body sway measured by platform stability) and psychomotor performance (measured by choice reaction time) were assessed predose and at 1.5, 4, and 8 hours postdose in each period. Memory (measured by word recall) was assessed predose and at 4 hours postdose. FINDINGS/RESULTS: At 1.5 hours after nighttime administration of each drug (the approximate time of their anticipated maximal plasma concentrations), both zolpidem and suvorexant increased body sway versus placebo, with a greater increase for zolpidem than suvorexant. Suvorexant increased choice reaction time compared with placebo or zolpidem at 1.5 hours. There were no treatment differences on body sway or choice reaction time at 4 or 8 hours, or on word recall at 4 hours. IMPLICATIONS/CONCLUSIONS: These exploratory data suggest that a 30-mg dose of suvorexant (supratherapeutic) and a 5-mg dose of zolpidem (recommended dose in the elderly) impaired balance at 1.5 hours in healthy elderly people, with potentially less impairment for suvorexant relative to zolpidem, but no treatment differences on body sway or psychomotor performance at 4 and 8 hours. Because of their exploratory nature, these findings and their clinical relevance, if any, require confirmation in a prospective study.

Renal impairment (RI) is known to influence the pharmacokinetics of nonrenally eliminated drugs, although the mechanism and clinical impact is poorly understood. We assessed the impact of RI and single dose oral rifampin (RIF) on the pharmacokinetics of CYP3A, OATP1B, P-gp, and BCRP substrates using a microdose cocktail and OATP1B endogenous biomarkers. RI alone had no impact on midazolam (MDZ), maximum plasma concentration (Cmax ), and area under the curve (AUC), but a progressive increase in AUC with RI severity for dabigatran (DABI), and up to ~2-fold higher AUC for pitavastatin (PTV), rosuvastatin (RSV), and atorvastatin (ATV) for all degrees of RI was observed. RIF did not impact MDZ, had a progressively smaller DABI drug-drug interaction (DDI) with increasing RI severity, a similar 3.1-fold to 4.4-fold increase in PTV and RSV AUC in healthy volunteers and patients with RI, and a diminishing DDI with RI severity from 6.1-fold to 4.7-fold for ATV. Endogenous biomarkers of OATP1B (bilirubin, coproporphyrin I/III, and sulfated bile salts) were generally not impacted by RI, and RIF effects on these biomarkers in RI were comparable or larger than those in healthy volunteers. The lack of a trend with RI severity of PTV and several OATP1B biomarkers, suggests that mechanisms beyond RI directly impacting OATP1B activity could also be considered. The DABI, RSV, and ATV data suggest an impact of RI on intestinal P-gp, and potentially BCRP activity. Therefore, DDI data from healthy volunteers may represent a worst-case scenario for clinically derisking P-gp and BCRP substrates in the setting of RI.

Doravirine, a novel nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1), is predominantly cleared by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 and metabolized to an oxidative metabolite (M9). Coadministration with rifabutin, a moderate CYP3A4 inducer, decreased doravirine exposure. Based on nonparametric superposition modeling, a doravirine dose adjustment from 100 mg once daily to 100 mg twice daily during rifabutin coadministration was proposed. However, M9 exposure may also be impacted by induction, in addition to the dose adjustment. As M9 concentrations have not been quantified in previous clinical studies, a physiologically based pharmacokinetic model was developed to investigate the change in M9 exposure when doravirine is coadministered with CYP3A inducers. Simulations demonstrated that although CYP3A induction increases doravirine clearance by up to 4.4-fold, M9 exposure is increased by only 1.2-fold relative to exposures for doravirine 100 mg once daily in the absence of CYP3A induction. Thus, a 2.4-fold increase in M9 exposure relative to the clinical dose of doravirine is anticipated when doravirine 100 mg twice daily is coadministered with rifabutin. In a subsequent clinical trial, doravirine and M9 exposures, when doravirine 100 mg twice daily was coadministered with rifabutin, were found to be consistent with model predictions using rifampin and efavirenz as representative inducers. These findings support the dose adjustment to doravirine 100 mg twice daily when coadministered with rifabutin.

Doravirine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor for treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. A population pharmacokinetic (PK) model for treatment-naive participants in doravirine clinical studies was updated with data from switch participants in the DRIVE-SHIFT trial and used to estimate individual post hoc PK parameter values and evaluate the efficacy exposure-response relationship. The results support the 100-mg dose for people living with HIV switching to a doravirine-based regimen (This study has been registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under ClinicalTrials registration no. NCT02397096.).

Doravirine (MK-1439) is a novel non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor indicated for the combination treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) infection. The recommended dose is 100 mg once daily. This review summarizes the pharmacokinetics of doravirine, the influence of intrinsic factors, and its drug-drug interaction (DDI) profile. Following oral administration, doravirine is rapidly absorbed (median time to maximum plasma concentration, 1-4 h) and undergoes cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A-mediated oxidative metabolism. Steady-state geometric means for AUC0-24, C24, and Cmax in individuals with HIV-1 following administration of doravirine 100 mg once daily are 37.8 µM·h, 930 nM, and 2260 nM, respectively. Age, gender, severe renal impairment, and moderate hepatic impairment have no clinically meaningful effect on doravirine pharmacokinetics, and there is limited potential for DDIs. No dose adjustment is necessary when doravirine is co-administered with strong CYP3A inhibitors. However, doravirine is contraindicated with strong CYP3A inducers (e.g., rifampin), and dose adjustment of doravirine is recommended for co-administration with the moderate CYP3A inducer, rifabutin. Included in this review are clinical trial data from phase I pharmacokinetic trials, including DDI trials and trials in participants with renal and hepatic disease but without HIV-1 infection (N = 326), as well as phase I, II, and III safety and efficacy trials in participants living with HIV-1 (N = 991). Based on these data, the pharmacokinetic profile of doravirine supports its use in diverse populations living with HIV-1 and allows co-administration with various antiretroviral agents and treatments for commonly occurring co-morbidities.

WHAT IS KNOWN AND OBJECTIVE: Doravirine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 infection. This phase 1 study in healthy adults investigated the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of long-acting parenteral (LAP) microsuspension formulations of doravirine administered as an intramuscular (IM) injection. METHODS: After confirmation of tolerability and safety of oral doravirine, 36 participants were randomized 1:1:1 to receive IM doravirine 200 mg as Treatment A (1 × 1 mL, 20% [200 mg/mL] suspension), B (1 × 0.66 mL, 30% [300 mg/mL] suspension) or C (2 × 0.5 mL, 20% suspension). Blood samples were taken as venous plasma, venous dried blood spots (DBS) and fingerstick DBS. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Plasma concentration-time profiles following IM treatments demonstrated rapid initial doravirine release, with initial peak ~4 days post-injection, followed by decline over the next ~6 days; a second peak was reached at ~24-36 days, corresponding to prolonged and sustained release, with measurable concentrations up to Day 183. Treatment C was associated with highest peak concentrations and shortest time to maximum concentration. Elimination half-lives for all IM formulations were prolonged versus oral administration (~46-58 days vs ~11-15 hours). Oral doravirine and IM doravirine were generally well tolerated; injection-site pain was the most common adverse event for IM doravirine. Doravirine concentrations from DBS samples showed strong correlations to venous plasma concentrations. WHAT IS NEW AND CONCLUSIONS: Novel doravirine LAP IM injection formulations investigated in this study demonstrated sustained plasma doravirine concentrations over a course of >20 weeks.

Bezlotoxumab is a monoclonal antibody approved for the prevention of recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (rCDI). In a previous exposure-response (E-R) analysis of bezlotoxumab exposure and rCDI, based on data from two phase 3 trials in participants who received placebo or bezlotoxumab 10 mg/kg, rCDI was treated as a binary endpoint and discontinued subjects were imputed as not having rCDI, resulting in an apparent positive E-R trend between rCDI rates and bezlotoxumab exposure. Therefore, a time-to-event (TTE) analysis was applied to investigate the E-R relationship, accounting for the time to rCDI occurrence and participant discontinuation. A TTE model, applying a time-dependent hazard function and right-censoring of data based on rCDI, discontinuation, or study end was developed. Exposure effects and covariates effects were evaluated as predictors affecting the hazard. The TTE model consisted of a Gompertz function with age, endogenous immunoglobulin G to C. difficile toxin B (IgG-B), history of CDI, hospitalization, sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and concomitant use of systemic antibiotics affecting the hazard. Exposure effects were characterized with a maximum effect (Emax) E-R relationship on the baseline parameter, and bezlotoxumab exposures achieved at the 10 mg/kg dose were found to be on the plateau of the E-R curve. Endogenous IgG-B significantly impacted the Emax, indicating that low-titer participants derive a greater benefit from bezlotoxumab treatment compared with high-titer participants. The results support the conclusions of the previous E-R analysis, where exposures achieved at the 10 mg/kg dose are on the plateau of the E-R curve.

Doravirine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor indicated for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus-1 infection, available as a single tablet in combination with other antiretroviral agents or as a fixed-dose regimen with lamivudine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). Alternative formulations of these drugs are being developed for individuals who have difficulty swallowing tablets. Two phase 1 trials were conducted, both in 24 healthy adults, to assess the pharmacokinetics of uncoated and coated oral granule formulations of doravirine, lamivudine, and TDF administered alone and with vanilla pudding or apple sauce. The pharmacokinetics for all uncoated granules, and of coated lamivudine and TDF granules, were similar to those of currently marketed tablets (geometric mean ratios [GMRs] 0.92-1.04). Coated doravirine granules had decreased AUC0-∞ (11%) and Cmax (23%) values versus the tablet. The pharmacokinetics were similar for uncoated and coated doravirine granules administered with or without pudding (GMRs 0.96-1.10); administration with apple sauce increased doravirine AUC0-∞ (26-29%), Cmax (56-59%), and C24 (20-21%) versus administration of granules alone. Lamivudine granules administered with pudding or apple sauce decreased AUC0-∞ and Cmax (14-25%) versus granules alone. Tenofovir AUC0-∞, Cmax, and C24 increased for TDF granules administered with pudding or apple sauce versus alone (11-23%). Pharmacokinetic differences when administering doravirine, lamivudine, or TDF as uncoated or coated granules versus tablets, or when granules were administered with (versus without) pudding or apple sauce, are not considered clinically meaningful, supporting further development of these granule formulations.

Doravirine is a novel nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) infection. In vitro and clinical data suggest that doravirine is unlikely to cause significant drug-drug interactions via major drug-metabolizing enzymes or transporters. As a common HIV-1 infection comorbidity, type 2 diabetes mellitus is often treated with metformin. Perturbations of metformin absorption or elimination may affect its safety and efficacy profile; therefore, understanding potential drug-drug interactions between doravirine and metformin is important. An open-label, fixed-sequence, 2-period trial in healthy adults was conducted. Single-dose metformin 1000 mg was administered in period 1; in period 2, doravirine 100 mg was administered once daily on days 1 to 7, and single-dose metformin 1000 mg was administered on day 5. Plasma pharmacokinetics for metformin alone and coadministered with doravirine were assessed. Fourteen participants enrolled and completed the trial. Least-squares geometric mean ratios and 90% confidence intervals of metformin AUC0-∞ , and Cmax following coadministration of metformin and doravirine compared with metformin alone were 0.94 (0.88-1.00) and 0.94 (0.86-1.03), respectively; metformin Tmax and half-life were also minimally impacted. These data indicate that doravirine did not have a clinically relevant effect on the pharmacokinetics of metformin. Metformin alone and coadministered with doravirine was generally well tolerated. These data support coadministration of doravirine 100 mg and metformin 1000 mg without dose adjustment.

Bezlotoxumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that binds and neutralizes Clostridium difficile toxin B. This analysis investigated the potential of bezlotoxumab to induce immunogenicity in healthy phase 1 trial participants and in phase 2/3 trial participants receiving oral antibacterial therapy for primary or recurrent C difficile infection. Immunogenicity to bezlotoxumab was evaluated following a single intravenous dose (≤20 mg/kg) or 2 consecutive doses (10 mg/kg) given 84 days apart in healthy participants across 3 phase 1 trials (Protocol MK-3415A-004, N = 30; Protocol CA-GCDX-05-01, N = 54; Protocol MK-3415A-006, N = 12) and following a single 10 mg/kg dose in 1 phase 2 trial (Protocol CA-GCDX-06-02, ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00350298; N = 97) and 2 phase 3 trials (Protocols MK-3415A-001 and MK-3415A-002, ClinicalTrials.gov identifiers: NCT01241552 and NCT01513239; N = 1414). No treatment-emergent antidrug antibodies were observed following single or repeated dosing of bezlotoxumab. No phase 1 participants and only 1 phase 2 participant tested positive before bezlotoxumab exposure (non-treatment-emergent positive). Nine participants tested non-treatment-emergent positive in phase 3 trials, 1 of whom was neutralizing antibody-positive. Overall, the immunogenicity potential of bezlotoxumab is considered to be low.

Doravirine is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor approved for the treatment of HIV-1. In a phase 1 trial, doravirine exposure was transiently decreased when treatment was started immediately after stopping efavirenz. In a post-hoc subgroup analysis of participants who switched from an efavirenz-based regimen to doravirine/lamivudine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in the phase 3 DRIVE-SHIFT trial, doravirine plasma levels at week 4 were similar to non-induced levels, and HIV-1 suppression was maintained at weeks 24 and 48.
