    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of L-703,014, a fibrinogen receptor antagonist, have been examined in the dog. An analytical method which utilizes methanol precipitation of dog plasma proteins followed by HPLC with an automated column switching technique using the chemical analogue L-704,326 as internal standard was developed for the determination of L-703,014 in dog plasma. The compound was not metabolized in the dog and was eliminated in the kidneys and into bile. Of the administered dose, 68.9 ± 1.3% (i.v.) and 80.5 ± 11.9% (p.o.) were recovered in the feces; 20.3 ± 3% (i.v.) and 2.2 ± 0.2% (p.o.) were recovered in the urine by 72 hr. L-703,014 was 23 ± 3.4% bound in dog plasma protein and the mean ratio of plasma/whole blood was 1.22 ± 0.05. The mean terminal half-life was 118 ± 36 min, the mean steady-state volume of distribution was 0.61 ± 0.22 L/kg, and the mean plasma clearance was 8 ± 2 mL/min/kg. Ex vivo platelet aggregation measurements were made by inducing platelet aggregation with 10 µg/ mL collagen in the presence of 1 µM epinephrine as an agonist. The mean C 50 was 44.4 ± 6.0 ng/mL, and the mean Hill coefficient was 1.5 ± 0.3. The mean bioavailability was 4.9 ± 1.4% in dogs administered 2.0 mg/kg (p.o.).

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics and tolerance of granisetron, a novel 5HT3-receptor antagonist which is under development as an anti-emetic agent have been studied after administration of single 30 min intravenous infusions to three groups of 8 healthy male subjects, in a series of placebo-controlled ascending dose studies (50, 80, 100 and 130 μg·kg−1 to group 1; 150, 180, 200 and 230 μg·kg−1 to group 2 and 270 and 300 μg·kg−1 to group 3). Plasma and urine samples were analysed for granisetron by HPLC with fluorimetric detection. Administration of granisetron was well tolerated by the volunteers and there were no serious adverse effects reported. Pharmacokinetic parameters and dose-normalised plasma levels appeared to be independent of dose in the range 50 to 300 μg·kg−1, although there was extensive inter-subject variability. Granisetron was extensively distributed, with mean volumes of distribution ranging from 186–264 l at the various doses. Total plasma clearance was, in general, rapid (mean values of 37.0 to 49.9 l·h−1) and predominantly non-renal, with most subjects excreting less than 20% of the dose unchanged in urine. Mean t1/2 values ranged from 4.1 to 6.3 h and MRT from 5.2 to 8.1 h.

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics and haemodynamic effects of isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) have been investigated following administration of single doses as a sublingual (SL) spray (2.5 mg), sublingual tablet (5 mg) and peroral tablet (10 mg) in a randomised, placebo-controlled double-blind cross-over trial in 16 healthy volunteers. After the sublingual spray Cmax was higher (39.0 ng·ml-1) and tmax was shorter (3.9 min) than after the sublingual (22.8 ng·ml-1 and 13.8 min) and peroral (16.9 ng·ml-1 and 25.6 min) tablets. The AUC of ISDN did not differ following any of the three formulations (1031; 879; 997 ng·ml-1·min, for the spray, SL tablet and PO-tablet, respectively). Mononitrate metabolites of ISDN (IS-2-MN and IS-5-MN) and total nitrates in plasma increased in proportion to the administered dose. This indicates that the fraction of the dose absorbed was the same for all the formulations but that the extent of first-pass metabolism increased in the order sublingual spray 〈 sublingual tablet 〈 peroral tablet. Thus, compared to the spray, the relative bioavailability of ISDN was 48% and 28% from the sublingual and peroral tablets, respectively. The haemodynamic effects were quantified using the a/b ratio of the finger pulse wave and the systolic blood pressure and heart rate under orthostatic conditions. For the a/b ratio of the finger pulse, the maximal effect was higher (emax=130%) and the time to emax (temax) shorter (16.6 min) after the spray than the sublingual tablet (84.4% and 25.5 min) or peroral tablet (90.2 and 31.3 min). The onset of effect was within 3, 5 and 7.5 min after the spray, sublingual and peroral tablets, respectively. A larger change in the orthostatically-induced decrease in systolic blood pressure and increase in heart rate was obtained following peroral than sublingual administration despite the similar plasma concentrations of ISDN. This probably reflects the larger amount of pharmacodynamically active mononitrate metabolites formed after oral dosing. The integrated effect following administration of 2.5 mg ISDN as spray was similar to that of a sublingual tablet of 5 mg.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of esmolol at different rates of infusion (100, 250 and 500 μg·kg−1 BW·min−1) were compared with β-adrenoceptor occupancy (β1 and β2, estimated by a subtype selective radioreceptor assay) and plasma concentrations of esmolol and its acid metabolite were measured by HPLC. Up to a rate of infusion of esmolol of 500 μg·kg−1 BW·min−1 there was a maximal β1-receptor occupancy of 84.7% while β2-receptor occupancy was below the detection limit; confirming the β1 selectivity of esmolol. Exercise-induced increases in heart rate and systolic blood pressure were reduced by esmolol in a dose-dependent manner. The estimated EC50 values of rate of infusion for the reduction in heart rate and systolic blood pressure during exercise were 113 and 134 μg·kg−1 BW · min−1, respectively. Additionally, heart rate and systolic blood pressure were reduced moderately at rest. Because of the short elimination half-life of esmolol caused by the rapid hydrolysis to its acid metabolite, 45 min after end of infusion high plasma concentrations of the metabolite (maximally 80 μg·ml−1) but no esmolol were detectable. Since no in vivo effects have been observed, despite the presence of high plasma concentrations of the metabolite, the metabolite did not participate in the observed effects up to an infusion rate of esmolol of 500 μg·kg−1 BW·min−1. The plasma concentrations of antagonist detected by radioreceptor assay and plasma concentrations of esmolol detected by HPLC showed a good correlation (r=0.97). Since the cardiovascular effects, determined before and 45 min after termination of infusion of esmolol were similar, it can be concluded that the observed effects on heart rate and systolic blood pressure are exclusively mediated by esmolol.

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single oral doses of 5 mg ramipril and 6 mg piretanide administered separately and in combination were determined in a single blind, randomised, 3-period cross-over study in 24 healthy male volunteers. The peak plasma concentrations of ramipril and ramiprilat increased slightly (from 11.9 to 14.8 ng/ml, and from 6.39 to 8.96 ng/ml, respectively) as did the area under the plasma concentration-time curve of ramipril (0–4 h) and ramiprilat (0–24 h) (from 15.8 to 19.8 ng·ml−1·h, and from 63.4 to 74.6 ng·ml−1·h, respectively). The urinary excretion of ramiprilat also rose (from 6.82 to 7.73 % of dose) following simultaneous treatment with piretanide. These effects were probably due to reduced first-pass metabolism of ramipril/ramiprilat to inactive metabolites. The blood pressure lowering effect, the time course of inhibition of ACE activity in plasma and the concentration-response relationship for the inhibition of plasma ACE activity were not affected by piretanide. The peak plasma concentration of piretanide was somewhat reduced (from 285 to 244 ng/ml) following simultaneous treatment with ramipril. No other pharmacokinetic parameter was affected. Piretanide increased urine flow, and sodium, chloride and potassium excretion, especially during the first 2 hours following administration. These pharmacodynamic parameters were not affected by ramipril. Thus, simultaneous administration of single oral doses of ramipril and piretanide caused modest changes in the peak and average plasma concentrations of both drugs, which did not lead to detectable alterations in the pharmacodynamic parameters measured in healthy volunteers.

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics and psychomotor effects of medifoxamine, a 5 HT reuptake inhibitory antidepressant, were studied in healthy elderly volunteers after single and multiple dosing. The elimination half life (t1/2z) after single doses of 300 mg was 2.8 h — almost identical to that found in young volunteers. After seven days of dosing at 100 mg three times daily the mean corrected AUC after 300 mg significantly increased from 1.04 to 1.34 mg.h.l−1 and t1/2z increased to 4.0 h (NS). There were no significant changes in critical flicker fusion frequency, symbol digit substitution, continuous attention or choice reaction times.

    Notes: Abstract We have studied the effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics of oxcarbazepine, its active monohydroxy-metabolite (which predominates in plasma), their glucuronides, and the inactive dihydroxy-metabolite after a single oral dose of oxcarbazepine (300 mg). Six subjects with normal renal function and 20 patients with various degrees of renal impairment participated. The mean areas under the plasma concentration-time curves of oxcarbazepine and its monohydroxy-metabolite were 2–2.5-times higher in patients with severe renal impairment (CLCR〈10 ml·min−1) than in healthy subjects. The apparent elimination half-life of the monohydroxy-metabolite [19 (SD 3) h] in these patients was about twice that in healthy subjects. The effect of renal impairment on the plasma concentrations of glucuronides was more marked. The renal clearances of the unconjugated monohydroxy-metabolite and its glucuronides (the main compounds recovered in urine) correlated well with creatinine clearance. The maximum target dose in patients with slight renal impairment (CLCR〉30 ml·min−1) should not be changed. In patients with moderate renal impairment (CLCR10–30 ml·min−1) it should be reduced by 50%. In patients with severe renal impairment (CLCR〈10 ml·min−1), the glucuronides of oxcarbazepine and its monohydroxy-metabolite are likely to accumulate during repeated administration, and dosage adjustment of oxcarbazepine in these patients could not be proposed from this single administration study.

    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics of ganciclovir was evaluated in a 73-year old anuric, haemodialyzed patient given 1.25 mg·kg-1 at the end of each haemodialysis session, three times per week. A biexponential decrease in plasma ganciclovir was observed, with a peak concentration of 3.7 mg·1-1 followed by a steady state value of 2.6 mg·1-1 for almost 40 h. The total plasma clearance was 0.05 ml·min-1·kg-1, the volume of distribution at steady state was 0.61·kg-1, the elimination half life was 132 h, the area under curve was 372 μg·h·ml-1, the mean residence time was 190 h, and the percentage of ganciclovir cleared from plasma after a 5 h haemodialysis session was 52.1%. The simulated pharmacokinetics over one month, following the same scheme of administration, did not suggest marked accumulation of ganciclovir. These results were obtained after a reduction of 58% in the recommended dose in patients with impaired renal function.

    Notes: Abstract To prevent drug accumulation and adverse effects the dose of hydrophilic angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, e. g. lisinopril, must be reduced in patients with renal failure. To obtain a rational basis for dose recommendations, we undertook a prospective clinical trial. After 15 days of lisinopril treatment pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters were determined in patients with advanced renal failure (n=8; endogenous creatinine clearance [CLCR]: 18 ml·min−1·1.73m−2) and in healthy subjects with normal renal function (n=16; CLCR: 107 ml·min−1·1.73m−2). The volunteers received 10 mg lisinopril once daily, the daily dose in patients (1.1–2.2 mg) was adjusted to the individual CLCR according to the method of Dettli [13]. After 15 days of lisinopril treatment the mean maximal serum concentration (C max) in patients was lower than in volunteers (30.7 vs 40.7 ng·ml−1, while the mean area under the concentration-time curve (AUC 0–24 h) was higher (525 vs 473 ng·h−1·ml−1). ACE activity on day 15 was almost completely inhibited in both groups. Plasma renin activity, angiotensin I and angiotensin II levels documented marked inhibition of converting enzyme in volunteers and patients. Furthermore, average mean arterial blood pressure in patients decreased by 5 mmHg and proteinuria from 3.9–2.7 g per 24 h after 15 days of treatment with the reduced dose of lisinopril. Adjustment of the dose of lisinopril prevents significant accumulation of the drug in patients with advanced renal failure during chronic therapy. Mean serum levels did not exceed this in subjects with normal renal function receiving a standard dose. Despite substantial dose reduction, blood pressure and proteinuria decreases were observed.

    Notes: Abstract We have studied the absorption of glibenclamide 10 mg as a single morning dose in 7 patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, comparing normoglycaemic and hyperglycaemic states. The maximal glibenclamide plasma concentrations were significantly higher in the normoglycaemic than in the hyperglycaemic state (448 vs 228 mg·1-1) and these peak concentrations were attained faster in normoglycaemia than in hyperglycaemia (3.7 vs 5 h). We conclude that the absorption of glibenclamide in the two states is different.
