RESUMEN
The main purpose of this study was to assess pharmacokinetic parameters (area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to infinity, area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time 0 to the last measurable concentration, maximum concentration, and apparent terminal half-life) after administration of 3 single intravenous (IV) doses of sugammadex to evaluate the safety and tolerability in healthy nonanesthetized subjects. This was an open-label, 3-period, nonrandomized, single-rising-dose study in 12 healthy Chinese subjects 18 to 45 years of age. In each period, every subject received a single IV dose of sugammadex in a fixed sequence (1, 2, and 4 mg/kg) under fasting conditions. There was a 3-day washout phase between dosing in each treatment period. In this study, a total of 11 (6 men and 5 women) Chinese subjects (with mean age of 25 ± 4.0 years; body weight, 64 ± 6 kg; height, 167 ± 6 cm; and body mass index, 22.9 ±1.2 kg/m2 ) received single doses of sugammadex 1, 2, and 4 mg/kg sequentially, with a 3-day washout phase between consecutive doses, and completed the study. The geometric mean maximum concentrations were 16.81, 30.99, and 60.55 µg/mL for sugammadex 1, 2, and 4 mg/kg, respectively. The median time to maximum concentration was 0.03 hour after bolus administration, and plasma sugammadex concentrations declined with a mean apparent terminal half-life of ≈1.7 hours across all 3 doses. Single-dose IV administration of sugammadex 1, 2, and 4 mg/kg was generally safe and well tolerated in healthy Chinese male and female subjects.

This analysis of a published study (NCT03346070) evaluated the pharmacokinetics (PKs) of sugammadex dosed by actual body weight (ABW) or ideal body weight (IBW) for reversal of moderate or deep neuromuscular block (M-NMB or D-NMB) in adults with morbid obesity. Adults with body mass index ≥ 40 kg/m2 , ABW ≥ 100 kg, and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Class 3 were stratified by NMB agent (rocuronium or vecuronium) and randomized 1:1:1:1:1 to (i) M-NMB, sugammadex 2 mg/kg ABW; (ii) M-NMB, sugammadex 2 mg/kg IBW; (iii) M-NMB, neostigmine 5 mg + glycopyrrolate 1 mg; (iv) D-NMB, sugammadex 4 mg/kg ABW; and (v) D-NMB, sugammadex 4 mg/kg IBW. Plasma samples for sugammadex quantification were collected predose, 2, 5, 15, 60, and 120 minutes, and 4, 6 hours postdose. Natural log PK parameters were analyzed using linear fixed effect model with treatment, mode (ABW and IBW), and mode by treatment interaction as fixed terms. The sugammadex PK profile showed rapid distribution followed by monophasic decline consistent with a two-compartment model examined by dose and mode. Absolute sugammadex exposures were ~ 50% higher in the ABW vs. IBW group; dose-independent parameters (clearance and volume of distribution) and terminal half-life remained constant. Sugammadex PK parameter values increased in dose-dependent, linear manner following dosing by ABW or IBW, such that PK continues to be predictive across the clinical dose range. In conjunction with previously published results showing faster recovery with ABW vs. IBW dosing across NMB agent and depth of NMB, these PK findings continue to support dosing by ABW in patients with morbid obesity irrespective of depth of NMB.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate in vitro the effect of sugammadex on activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT) prolongations with various anticoagulants as well as the neutralizing effect of rocuronium and vecuronium on sugammadex effects on APTT and PT. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We investigated in vitro the effect of sugammadex on APTT and/or PT in plasma of patients on a vitamin K antagonist and with elevated international normalized ratios (INRs), in plasma of healthy subjects spiked with either a low or high concentration of enoxaparin, fondaparinux, rivaroxaban, and dabigatran, and in perioperatively collected patient plasma. In addition, we explored whether the effects of sugammadex persisted in the presence of rocuronium or vecuronium, or whether they were counteracted by these compounds. RESULTS: Sugammadex concentration-dependently increased APTT and PT(INR) in all anticoagulant conditions, mainly in a proportional manner, with no differences between perioperatively collected patient and control plasma. Rocuronium and vecuronium both neutralized the effects of sugammadex on APTT and PT. CONCLUSION: Sugammadex has a transient effect on coagulation and is unlikely to increase bleeding risk, this possibility cannot be excluded for scenarios not clinically studied.

BACKGROUND: Certain surgical interventions may require a deep neuromuscular block (NMB). Reversal of such a block before tracheal extubation is challenging. Because anticholinesterases are ineffective in deep block, sugammadex 4 mg/kg has been recommended for the reversal of rocuronium- or vecuronium-induced deep NMB. However, this recommendation requires opening 2 vials of 200 mg sugammadex, which results in an increase in drug costs. Therefore, we sought a less expensive solution for the induction and reversal of deep NMB. Although the optimal dose of sugammadex for antagonism of deep block from pipecuronium has not been established, data pertaining to moderate block are available. Accordingly, we hypothesized that sugammadex 2 mg/kg would be a proper dose to reverse deep pipecuronium block, enabling us to avoid cost increases. In the present study, we compared sugammadex 2 mg/kg with the standard dose of 4 mg/kg for reversal of deep block from pipecuronium. METHODS: This single-center, randomized, double-blind, 2 parallel-arms, noninferiority study comprised 50 patients undergoing general anesthesia with propofol, sevoflurane, fentanyl, and pipecuronium. Neuromuscular monitoring was performed with acceleromyography (TOF-Watch SX). Noninferiority margin was specified beforehand as an increase in reversal time of no >10% (corresponding to 1 minute for the primary outcome). When the block spontaneously recovered to posttetanic count 1, the patients randomly received sugammadex 2 or 4 mg/kg, and the time from the injection to the train-of-four (TOF) ratio of 1.0 was measured. Primary outcome was the time to achieve the normalized TOF ratio of 0.9 in a particular patient. Residual or recurrent postoperative NMB was additional end point. RESULTS: Each patient recovered to the normalized TOF ratio of 0.9. In the 2 mg/kg group, reversal time was 1.73 ± 1.03 minutes (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.33-2.13; n = 25), and in the 4 mg/kg group, reversal time was 1.42 ± 0.63 minutes (mean ± standard deviation) (95% CI, 1.17-1.67; n = 25). The mean difference in reversal times between the 2 groups was 0.31 minutes (95% CI, -0.18 to 0.8), and the upper limit of CI was below the noninferiority margin of 1 minute. Postoperative block did not occur. CONCLUSIONS: The effect of sugammadex 2 mg/kg was noninferior to that of 4 mg/kg in reversing posttetanic count-1 degree pipecuronium block. Sugammadex reversal of deep pipecuronium block appears to be effective.
