Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic Target Attainment Analyses Evaluating Omadacycline Dosing Regimens for the Treatment of Patients with Community-Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia Arising from Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae
Abstract
Omadacycline, a novel aminomethylcycline with in vitro activity against Gram-positive and -negative organisms, including Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae, is approved in the United States to treat patients with community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP). Using nonclinical pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) targets for efficacy and in vitro surveillance data for omadacycline against S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae, and a population pharmacokinetic model, PK-PD target attainment analyses were undertaken using total-drug epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and free-drug plasma exposures to evaluate omadacycline 100 mg intravenously (i.v.) every 12 h or 200 mg i.v. every 24 h (q24h) on day 1, followed by 100 mg i.v. q24h on day 2 and 300 mg orally q24h on days 3 to 5 for patients with CABP. Percent probabilities of PK-PD target attainment on days 1 and 2 by MIC were assessed using the following four approaches for selecting PK-PD targets: (i) median, (ii) second highest, (iii) highest, and (iv) randomly assigned total-drug ELF and free-drug plasma ratio of the area under the concentration-time curve to the MIC (AUC/MIC ratio) targets associated with a 1-log10 CFU reduction from baseline. Percent probabilities of PK-PD target attainment based on total-drug ELF AUC/MIC ratio targets on days 1 and 2 were ≥91.1% for S. pneumoniae for all approaches but the highest target and ≥99.2% for H. influenzae for all approaches at MIC90s (0.12 and 1 μg/mL for S.…
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design.
