ABSTRACT
AIMS:
The pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of voriconazole in intensive care unit (ICU) patients differ from that in other patients. We aimed to develop a population pharmacokinetic (PopPK) model to evaluate the effects of using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and those of various biological covariates on the voriconazole PK profile.METHODS:
Modeling analyses of the PK parameters were conducted using the nonlinear mixed-effects modeling method (NONMEM) with a two-compartment model. Monte Carlo simulations (MCSs) were performed to observe the probability of target attainment (PTA) when receiving CRRT or not under different dosage regimens, different stratifications of quick C-reactive protein (qCRP), and different minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) ranges.RESULTS:
A total of 408 critically ill patients with 746 voriconazole concentration-time data points were included in this study. A two-compartment population PK model with qCRP, CRRT, creatinine clearance rate (CLCR), platelets (PLT), and prothrombin time (PT) as fixed effects was developed using the NONMEM.CONCLUSIONS:
We found that qCRP, CRRT, CLCR, PLT, and PT affected the voriconazole clearance. The most commonly used clinical regimen of 200 mg q12h was sufficient for the most common sensitive pathogens (MIC ≤ 0.25 mg/L), regardless of whether CRRT was performed and the level of qCRP. When the MIC was 0.5 mg/L, 200 mg q12h was insufficient only when the qCRP was <40 mg/L and CRRT was performed. When the MIC was ≥2 mg/L, a dose of 300 mg q12h could not achieve ≥ 90% PTA, necessitating the evaluation of a higher dose.
