RESUMEN
PURPOSE: This single-dose, open-label, randomized, 3-period, 3-treatment crossover drug-drug interaction study was conducted to evaluate differences in the pharmacokinetic properties of saxagliptin and dapagliflozin when coadministered. METHODS: Healthy subjects (N = 42) were randomized to receive saxagliptin 5 mg alone, dapagliflozin 10 mg alone, or saxagliptin 5 mg plus dapagliflozin 10 mg coadministered; there was a washout period of ≥6 days between treatments. Serial blood samples for determining saxagliptin, 5-hydroxy saxagliptin (5-OH saxagliptin; major active metabolite) and dapagliflozin plasma concentrations and pharmacokinetic parameters were collected before and up to 60 hours after the dose. No interaction was to be concluded if the 90% CIs for the geometric mean ratios of the combination compared with each drug given alone for Cmax and AUCinf were within 0.80 to 1.25. FINDINGS: The results indicated that dapagliflozin had no effect on the pharmacokinetic properties of saxagliptin, 5-OH saxagliptin, or saxagliptin total active moiety and vice versa. The 90% CIs for Cmax and AUCinf for all comparisons were contained entirely within the 0.80 to 1.25 equivalence intervals. Other pharmacokinetic parameters (apparent oral clearance or half-life) of saxagliptin or dapagliflozin were similar when each medicine was administered alone or when coadministered. No safety profile or tolerability findings of concern were observed during the study. All adverse events were mild, and no serious adverse events were reported. IMPLICATIONS: These data indicate that coadministration of saxagliptin and dapagliflozin exhibits no pharmacokinetic interaction and is well tolerated. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01662999.

TRV130 is a G protein-biased ligand at the µ-opioid receptor. In preclinical studies it was potently analgesic while causing less respiratory depression and gastrointestinal dysfunction than morphine, suggesting unique benefits in acute pain management. A first-in-human study was conducted with ascending doses of TRV130 to explore its tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics in healthy volunteers. TRV130 was well-tolerated over the dose range 0.15 to 7 mg administered intravenously over 1 hour. TRV130 geometric mean exposure and Cmax were dose-linear, with AUC0-inf of 2.52 to 205.97 ng h/mL and Cmax of 1.04 to 102.36 ng/mL across the dose range tested, with half-life of 1.6-2.7 hours. A 1.5 mg dose of TRV130 was also well-tolerated when administered as 30, 15, 5, and 1 minute infusions. TRV130 pharmacokinetics were modestly affected by CYP2D6 phenotype: clearance was reduced by 53% in CYP2D6 poor metabolizers.TRV130 caused dose- and exposure-related pupil constriction, confirming central compartment µ-opioid receptor engagement. Marked pupil constriction was noted at 2.2, 4, and 7 mg doses. Nausea and vomiting observed at the 7 mg dose limited further dose escalation. These findings suggest that TRV130 may have a broad margin between doses causing µ-opioid receptor-mediated pharmacology and doses causing µ-opioid receptor-mediated intolerance.

The immunosuppressant everolimus used in organ transplantation is formulated as a conventional tablet for adults and a dispersible tablet that can be administered in water for pediatric use. As part of the pediatric clinical development program, the relative bioavailability and food effect for the dispersible tablet were evaluated in healthy adult subjects as a prelude to characterizing the steady-state pharmacokinetics in pediatric kidney allograft recipients. In a randomized, open-label, three-way crossover study, 24 healthy adults received single 1.5-mg oral doses of everolimus as (1) six 0.25-mg dispersible tablets in water, (2) two 0.75-mg conventional tablets, and (3) six 0.25-mg dispersible tablets in water after a high-fat breakfast. Cmax and AUC were evaluated by standard bioequivalence testing to determine relative bioavailability and to quantify the effect of food. In a multicenter open-label efficacy/safety trial, pediatric renal allograft recipients received 0.8 mg/m2 (maximum 1.5 mg) bid everolimus as dispersible tablets in water. Serial trough concentrations over the first week and a steady-state pharmacokinetic profile on day 7 posttransplant were collected in 19 patients ranging from ages 2 to 16 years old. The bioavailability of everolimus from the dispersible tablet was 10% lower relative to the conventional tablet, with a ratio (90% confidence interval) of 0.90 (0.76-1.07). After a high-fat meal, tmax was delayed by a median 2.5 hours, and Cmax was reduced by 50%. Overall absorption, however, was not affected by food inasmuch as the fed/fasting AUC ratio was 0.99 (0.83-1.17). In pediatric patients, steady state was reached between days 3 and 5. The corresponding steady-state parameters were as follows: Cmin, 4.4 +/- 1.7 ng/ml; Cmax, 13.6 +/- 4.2 ng/ml; and AUC, 87 +/- 27 ng.h/ml. Steady-state concentration-time profiles in pediatric transplant patients receiving the dispersible tablet were comparable to those of adult patients receiving the conventional tablet when both were dosed to yield similar trough concentrations. If a pediatric patient is converted from the everolimus dispersible tablet to the conventional tablet, this should be based on a 1:1 milligram switch with subsequent therapeutic drug monitoring to further individualize the dose as needed. The dispersible tablet formulation should be taken consistently either with or without food to minimize fluctuations in exposure over time.
