3 Learning Objectives At the end of this presentation, the learner will be able to: Describe the basic concepts of PK/PD, specifically: the fundamentals of PK the difference between PK and PD Describe the use of PK / PD principles in TB therapy, in particular, related to these in the use of: INH Rifamycins Aminoglycosides Discuss the use of Clinical PK / Therapeutic Drug Monitoring in TB in relation to: Optimizing efficacy Minimizing toxicity Patients needing it most 3

4 Intro to PK and PD Pharmacokinetics (PK): ADME: Study of the time course of Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism & Excretion.

9 PK Case AB PK Parameter AB is a 42 yo WM being treated for TB with SM 1000mg (~13 mg/kg) IV QM-F. Other meds: RIF/EMB/PZA AB has a h/o CHF, ESLD, and DM. Wt = 75 kg, Ht = 65 in. Labs: BUN = 15, SCr = 1.1 SM MIC = 8 mcg/ml Serum SM concs reveal: Calculated Cmax = 22 mcg/ml (nl=35-45 mcg/ml) Serum T 1/2 = 5.2 hrs (nl SM T 1/2 = 2-3 hrs) 9

10 Pt Case AB Question What is the most likely cause of AB s serum SM concentrations and PK parameters being not quite normal? a. Renal dysfunction b. Large volume of distribution c. Reduced absorption of the streptomycin d. Drug interaction affecting metabolism of SM 10

28 Pt Case: AB Dose Optimization Recall that AB had an SM Cmax of 22 mcg/ml and an SM MIC of 8 mcg/ml. AB also had an extended serum T1/2 of 5.2 hrs. We are concerned about the effectiveness of this SM dose because of which dosing principle? a) The Time > MIC is not optimal b) The Cmax / MIC is not optimal c) The AUC > MIC is not optimal 28

29 Use of Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) in TB 29

30 Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM)* GOAL: Optimization of therapy for individual pt: Maximize efficacy and/or Minimize toxicity Use with other clinical data Most valuable when *aka Clinical Pharmacokinetics Wide intersubject variation Therapeutic concs toxic concs Serum concs surrogate for concs at site of action DiPiro JT, Spruill WJ, Wade WE et al. Concepts in Clinical Pharmacokinetics, 5 th ed. Bethesda, MD : American Society of Health-System Pharmacists; p

31 TDM: What it s really about NOT necessarily normal ranges Rather, individualized goals for each pt. Goals should consider: Efficacy needs Toxicity acceptance Once drug is chosen: Determine desired conc. Try to achieve! Therapeutic concentrations vary by patient Jelliffe R.

33 TDM with TB Drugs May be more important than adherence(??) 1 Meta-analysis: PK variability to single drug associated with failure & acquired resistance Need at least 60% non-adherence to impact outcomes Useful for 2-4 Slow to respond to treatment Drug-resistant TB Risk of drug-drug interactions Concurrent disease (HIV, DM, Hep/renal dysfunction) 1.

Dose max is not necessarily the max in your patient 35

36 Recall: Back to AB: AB is a 42 yo WM being treated for TB with: SM 1000mg (~13 mg/kg) IV QM-F, RIF 600 mg po QD, EMB 800 mg po QD, PZA 1000 mg po QD. AB has a h/o CHF and DM. 36

37 AB - Regimen Questions: Which other med(s) might we be most concerned about not being optimized in AB (and why)? a) Rifampin b) Rifampin and PZA c) Rifampin and Ethambutol 37

38 AB - Regimen Questions (cont d): Rifampin serum concs. reveal (nl = 8-24 mcg/ml): 2 hr: 6 mcg/ml 6 hr: 3 mcg/ml Without doing PK calculations, what might be a better new RIF dose (and why)? a) RIF 600 mg IV QD b) RIF 600 mg PO BID c) RIF 900 mg PO QD 38

39 Conclusions Overview of PK/PD PK time course ADME; PD - effect at site Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) PK / PD in TB INH time-dependent RIF, AMGs concentration dependent PK mismatch important, especially with INH and long half-life rifamycins (RFB and RPT) Use of TDM in TB Important in TB tx Offers individualized tx Efficacy / Toxicity Drug Interactions / Concurrent clinical problems 39
