A population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model for simvastatin that predicts low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol reduction in patients with primary hyperlipidaemia.

Abstract:

:Simvastatin (SV), a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, is widely used for the treatment of hyperlipidaemia. The objectives of the present study were to develop a population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) model for simvastatin and to evaluate its usefulness in predicting the dose-response relationship of simvastatin in patients with hyperlipidaemia. The data were obtained from a drug-drug interaction study to assess the effect of aspirin on the PK of simvastatin. Twenty-seven healthy volunteers were given simvastatin 40 mg daily for 14 days in whom aspirin 100 mg q.d. was co-administered after day 8. Full PK studies were performed on days 1, 7 and 14 in addition to trough sampling on days 5, 6, 12 and 13. Low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels were also measured serially. Then, a population PK-PD model for simvastatin and its active metabolite, simvastatin acid (SVA), was developed using mixed effect methods (NONMEM Ver. 6.2). A simple linear PK model with parent and metabolite compartments provided the best fit for the 2647 concentrations of simvastatin and simvastatin acid, and a turnover model was used to describe the change in LDL-C levels. The dose-response curve simulated from the final model and those obtained from the literature overlapped very closely. No influence of aspirin was observed in PK or PD. A simple PK-PD model developed using only 2-week study data from fewer than 30 healthy volunteers successfully predicted the dose-response relationship of simvastatin in patients when compared with published data.
