    Notes: Summary Thirty-five patients with advanced refractory cancer were enrolled on this phase I study of menogaril administered orally every 4 weeks at dosages ranging from 85 mg/m2 to 625 mg/m2. An additional 12 patients received alternating oral and IV doses of menogaril (250 mg/m2 IV; 250–500 mg/m2 oral) with accompanying blood and urine sampling for pharmacokinetics analysis. Nausea and vomiting were the dose-limiting toxicities at the 625 mg/m2 dosage level; vomiting was inadequately relieved by prophylactic antiemetics at this dosage level. Other toxicities included sporadic leukopenia at all dosage levels; at dosages of 500 mg/m2 and 625 mg/m2, leukopenia 〈 3000/μl occurred in 7 of 24 patients. Anemia and thrombocytopenia were much less frequent toxicities. Among the patients receiving IV menogaril, peripheral vein phlebitis, leukopenia and anemia were the predominant toxicities. No antitumor responses were observed, yet one patient with nonsmall cell lung cancer experienced a 30% reduction in metastatic tumor nodules. For the patients receiving alternating oral and IV menogaril, comparative pharmacokinetic analyses were performed by HPLC. After oral administration, maximum plasma concentrations were achieved in an average of 6 hours; maximum plasma concentrations were less than one-quarter of those achieved after intravenous administration. The harmonic mean (±SD) terminal disposition half-life after oral dosing was 29.3 ±9.2 hours; mean systemic bioavailability was 33.6±10.5% after oral dosing. Forty-eight hours after an oral dose, mean cumulative urinary excretions of menogaril and the primary metabolite, N-demethylmenogaril, were 4.00±0.96% and 0.44±0.16%, respectively. Because of the poor tolerance of oral menogaril and minimal evidence of biological activity, this schedule of drug administration is not recommended for phase II evaluation. Based on this and other published studies of oral menogaril, frequent chronic low-intermediate dosages of the drug may be given orally with potentially better tolerance and antitumor activity.

    Notes: Summary The kinetics of a single oral dose of mefloquine given either alone or with ampicillin has been studied in 8 healthy Thai male volunteers. There was a significantly higher maximum whole blood mefloquine concentration after coadministration with ampicillin (1648 vs 1228 ng·ml−1), as well as a significantly reduced terminal half life (15.3 vs 17.7 days), mean residence time (20.1 vs 23.4 days) and volume of distribution at steady state (14.1 vs 19.4 l·kg−1). Although there was no significant change in the AUC from zero time to infinity, the AUC from zero time to 5 days was significantly increased by ampicillin (4.86 vs 3.27 μg·ml−1 day). These changes in mefloquine disposition after antibiotic treatment may be due both to an increase in fractional bioavailability and a reduction in the enterohepatic recycling of mefloquine.

    Notes: Summary Halofantrine is a new blood schizontocidal drug used for the treatment of multidrug-resistant falciparum malaria. The pharmacokinetics of halofantrine (HAL) and its principal metabolite, N-desbutylhalofantrine (BHAL), was investigated in 6 adult male patients of Melanesian origin with uncomplicated falciparum malaria. The patients received 500 mg of halofantrine hydrochloride at times 0, 6 and 12 h (total 1.5 g). All patients responded to treatment with a mean parasite clearance time of 52.7 h and a mean fever clearance time of 33.8 h. The following kinetic parameters (mean values) were determined for HAL and BHAL, respectively: maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)=896 and 491 ng·ml−1; time to reach the Cmax (tmax)=15 and 56 h; elimination half-life (t1/2)=91 and 79 h and the mean residence time (MRT)=71 and 102 h. Based on the clinical response the plasma concentrations of HAL and BHAL were adequate for the treatment of uncomplicated falciparum malaria in the 6 patients.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of fosinoprilat, the diacid of fosinopril sodium, a new angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, were investigated after the oral administration of 10 mg of fosinopril sodium to 6 chronic ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) patients. The results from 1 patient are reported separately because of the presence of concomitant liver dysfunction. The mean t1/2, Cmax, tmax, and AUC values for 5 of the CAPD patients were 19.5 h, 202 ng·ml−1, 4.8 h, and 3.19 μg·h·ml−1, respectively. Values for 1 CAPD patient with liver dysfunction were t1/2 of 65.4 h, Cmax of 182 ng·ml−1, tmax of 9 h, and AUC of 18.1 μg·h·ml−1. Peritoneal clearance of fosinoprilat was negligible, ranging from 0.07 to 0.23 ml·min−1. Serum ACE activity remained significantly suppressed at 24 and 48 h after fosinopril sodium administration with mean decreases from baseline of 94.2% and 70.6%, respectively. ACE activity was suppressed to an even greater degree in the patient with liver dysfunction, remaining 97% inhibited 72 h after drug administration. Plasma renin activity (PRA) increased and plasma aldosterone concentrations decreased following drug administration. Mean arterial pressure did not change appreciably throughout the study. Dosage reductions may not be necessary in the majority of dialysis patients.

    Interaction of ORG 10172, a low molecular weight heparinoid, and digoxin in healthy volunteers (1991)

    Notes: Summary Potential pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic interactions between a new low molecular weight heparinoid Org 10172 (bolus injection of 3250 anti-Xa units) and digoxin (0.25 mg once daily for 8 days) were studied in 6 healthy male volunteers using an open, randomised three-way cross-over design. Digoxin produced a slight increase in clearance of anti-Xa activity from 4.3 to 4.8 ml·min−1, while plasma anti-thrombin and thrombin generation inhibiting (TGI) activity remained unchanged. Digoxin did not affect the actions of Org 10172 on the clotting tests. In the presence of Org 10172 there was a reduction in the AUC of digoxin during one dosing interval after the seventh digoxin tablet from 20 to 17 ng·ml−1·h, and a significant reduction in the average serum digoxin conentration. Since renal digoxin clearance was not significantly changed this probably might be due to a change in the non-renal clearance of digoxin. Atrio-ventricular node conduction, as measured by PR-time intervals, remained unchanged during all three treatments. In conclusion, although the pharmacokinetics of Org 10172 and digoxin were slightly changed by the combination, it is probably safe to administer Org 10172 and digoxin simultaneously. The clinical relevance of the slight decrease in plasma anti-Xa activity levels cannot yet be defined.

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Ibuprofen may be an alternative to acetaminophen to control fever in children but little is known about its pharmacokinetics in pediatric patients. We studied 17 patients (age 3–10 yr) with fever; the most prevalent diagnoses were streptococcal pharyngitis and otitis media. Ibuprofen liquid was given as a single dose, 5 mg/kg (9 patients) or 10 mg/kg (8 patients). Multiple blood samples were collected over 8 hours and analyzed by HPLC. The maximum observed serum concentrations of ibuprofen ranged from 17–42 μm·ml−1 at 5 mg·kg−1 and 25–53 μm·ml−1 at 10 mg·kg−1 doses. Pharmacokinetics did not appear to be affected by ibuprofen dose. Mean tmax, oral clearance and elimination half life were 1.1 h, 1.2 ml·min−1·kg−1, and 1.6 h, respectively in patients at 5 mg·kg−1 doses; the corresponding values were 1.2 h, 1.4 ml·min−1·kg−1, and 1.6 h in those receiving 10 mg·kg−1 doses. There was no relationship between age and ibuprofen kinetics. No adverse effects occurred in any patients. These data suggest that ibuprofen pharmacokinetics may not be affected by dose between 5 and 10 mg/kg or age between 3 and 10 years.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of fosinoprilat, the diacid of fosinopril sodium (a new angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor), were investigated in six haemodialysis patients. Intravenous 14C-fosinoprilat (7.5 mg), oral 14C-fosinopril sodium (10 mg) and oral fosinopril sodium (10 mg) were administered in an open-label, randomized study. Mean maximum concentration (Cmax), clearance (CL), volume of distribution at steady-state (Vss), mean residence time (MRTiv), and t1/2 values after IV administration of 14C-fosinoprilat were 2,042 μg·ml−1, 11.3 ml·min−1, 11.01, 16.3 h and 28.3 h, respectively. Following oral administration of 14C-fosinopril, mean Cmax, time to maximum plasma concentration (tmax), and fosinoprilat bioavailability values were 197 ng·ml−1, 5.2 h and 29.2 %. Para-hydroxy fosinoprilat and fosinoprilat glucuronide comprised approximately 15 % and 2 % of radioactivity recovered in faeces. Four hours of haemodialysis only cleared approximately 1.5 % of the administered dose. The maximum effect (Emax) model was fitted to the percentage inhibition of serum ACE activity vs. fosinoprilat concentration data in three patients. Emax ranged from 95.3 to 102.5 %, and IC50 (the fosinoprilat concentration required to produce 50 % of Emax) ranged from 2.6 to 4.2 ng·ml−1. Pharmacokinetic variables of the patients were similar to those in patients with moderate to severe renal dysfunction. Dosage modifications or supplemental dosing following dialysis are unnecessary.

    Notes: Summary The pharmacokinetics of racemic (rac) felodipine, rac-nitrendipine and nifedipine (all given as an oral dose of 20 mg in solution) have been investigated in a randomised cross-over study in 12 healthy male subjects using stereoselective assays. Both felodipine and nitrendipine exhibited stereoselective pharmacokinetics. On average, the AUCs of the active (S)-enantiomers of felodipine and nitrendipine were 139% and 104% higher than those of their optical antipodes, but the elimination half-lives of the enantiomers of each racemate were not different. The AUCs of nifedipine, rac-felodipine, rac-nitrendipine and of their enantiomers were highly correlated (all r〉0.83), suggesting closely related rate limiting steps in the in vivo first-pass metabolism of these high-clearance drugs. Stereoselectivity was only a minor contributor to inter-individual variability in the oral pharmacokinetics of these compounds in healthy subjects.

    Effect of concomitant administration of cimetidine and ranitidine on the pharmacokinetics and electrocardiographic effects of terfenadine (1993)

    Topics: Chemistry and Pharmacology , Medicine
    Notes: Summary Terfenadine is a widely prescribed non-sedating antihistamine which undergoes rapid and almost complete first pass biotransformation to an active carboxylic acid metabolite. It is unusual to find unmetabolised terfenadine in the plasma of patients taking the drug. Terfenadine in vitro is a potent blocker of the myocardial potassium channel. Overdose, hepatic compromise and the coadministration of ketoconazole and erythromycin result in the accumulation of terfenadine, which is thought to be responsible of QT prolongation and Torsades de Pointes ventricular arrhythmia in susceptible individuals. Cimetidine and ranitidine are two popular H2 antagonists which are often taken with terfenadine. The effects of cimetidine and ranitidine on terfenadine metabolism were studied in two cohorts of 6 normal volunteers given the recommended dose of terfenadine (60 mg every 12 h) for 1 week prior to initiation of cimetidine 600 mg every 12 h or ranitidine 150 mg every 12 h. Pharmacokinetic profiles and morning pre-dose electrocardiograms were obtained whilst the patients were on terfenadine alone and after the addition of cimetidine or rantidine. One of the subjects in each cohort had a detectable plasma level of parent compound after 1 week of terfenadine therapy alone; it did not accumulate further after addition of the H2 antagonist. The pharmacokinetics of the carboxylic acid metabolite of terfenadine (Cmax, tmax, AUC) were not significantly changed after co-administration of either H2 antagonist. None of the remaining 5 subjects in either cohort demonstrated accumulation of unmetabolised terfenadine after addition of the respective H2 antagonist and electrocardiographic QT intervals and T-U morphology in them was not changed during the course of the study. We conclude that cimetidine and ranitidine in the dosages used in this study did not affect the metabolism of terfenadine, and that patients exposed to these drug combinations are not at increased risk of altered cardiac repolarisation.

    Notes: Summary Pharmacokinetic data for diclofenac sodium has been well established in healthy volunteers, whereas in patients with rheumatoid arthritis very little information is available in the literature. A single oral dose of enteric-coated diclofenac sodium was given to 10 patients with active rheumatoid disease, adopting the same procedures used for a group of 10 healthy volunteers in whom pharmacokinetic data was already available. Plasma specimens were collected over a period of 8h following administration and concentrations of diclofenac determined by GLC. Resulting plasma concentration curves were similar to those obtained in the healthy subjects in that areas under curves and terminal half-lives were comparable. However, peak concentrations of diclofenac were significantly reduced in the rheumatoid patients. The lower peak concentrations were correlated with the lower serum albumin levels in the patients which are associated with active rheumatoid disease.
