Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic Target Attainment Analyses To Determine Optimal Dosing of Ceftazidime-Avibactam for the Treatment of Acute Pulmonary Exacerbations in Patients with Cystic Fibrosis.

Abstract：

:Acute pulmonary exacerbations (APE) involving Pseudomonas aeruginosa are associated with increased morbidity and mortality in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Drug resistance is a significant challenge to treatment. Ceftazidime-avibactam (CZA) demonstrates excellent in vitro activity against isolates recovered from CF patients, including drug-resistant strains. Altered pharmacokinetics (PK) of several beta-lactam antibiotics have been reported in CF patients. Therefore, this study sought to characterize the PK of CZA and perform target attainment analyses to determine the optimal treatment regimen. The PK of CZA in 12 adult CF patients administered 3 intravenous doses of 2.5 g every 8 h infused over 2 h were determined. Population modeling utilized the maximum likelihood expectation method. Monte Carlo simulations determined the probability of target attainment (PTA). An exposure target consisting of the cumulative percentage of a 24-h period that the free drug concentration exceeds the MIC under steady-state pharmacokinetic conditions (fT>MIC) was evaluated for ceftazidime (CAZ), and an exposure target consisting of the cumulative percentage of a 24-h period that the free drug concentration exceeds a 1-mg/liter threshold concentration (fT>1 mg/liter) was evaluated for avibactam (AVI). Published CAZ and CZA MIC distributions were incorporated to evaluate cumulative response probabilities. CAZ and AVI were best described by one-compartment models. The values of total body clearance (CL; CAZ CL, 7.53 ± 1.28 liters/h; AVI CL, 12.30 ± 1.96 liters/h) and volume of distribution (V; CAZ V, 18.80 ± 6.54 liters; AVI V, 25.30 ± 4.43 liters) were broadly similar to published values for healthy adults. CZA achieved a PTA (fT>MIC, 50%) of >0.9 for MICs of ≤16 mg/liter. The overall likelihood of a treatment response was 0.82 for CZA, whereas it was 0.42 for CAZ. These data demonstrate improved pharmacodynamics of CZA in comparison with those of CAZ and provide guidance on the optimal dosing of CZA for future studies.
