    BACKGROUND: Valganciclovir (VGCV) is administered at a dose of 16 mg/kg 2 times daily for 6 months to treat symptomatic congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections. During the treatment period, approximately 20% of the patients developed grade 3 or higher neutropenia. Currently, information on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ganciclovir, an active metabolite of VGCV, in infants is limited. In the current study, the relationship between ganciclovir concentration and neutropenia was investigated, and a population pharmacokinetic (PPK) model of ganciclovir in infants with symptomatic congenital CMV infection was developed. METHODS: Japanese infants who were prescribed oral VGCV for symptomatic congenital CMV infections between July 2017 and January 2021 were included. The relationship between the observed trough ganciclovir concentrations and neutrophil counts was examined. PPK analysis was performed to evaluate the covariates affecting the pharmacokinetics of ganciclovir. RESULTS: Twenty-seven ganciclovir serum samples from 8 patients were analyzed. A moderate negative correlation was observed between the observed trough ganciclovir concentration and neutrophil count. PPK model analysis showed that postmenstrual age (PMA) affected the total body clearance of ganciclovir after correcting for the empirical allometric scaling of body weight. Based on PMA and body weight, a nomogram to achieve the target area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 hours of 40-60 mcg·h·mL -1 of ganciclovir was calculated. CONCLUSIONS: The relationship between neutrophil count and ganciclovir trough concentration in infants was clarified. The PPK model showed that the dose of VGCV should be reduced in patients with a low PMA to achieve target exposure.

    BACKGROUND: Torasemide, a loop diuretic, is rarely used for pregnant women because of the risk of reduced placental blood flow resulting from decreased circulating plasma volume. We experienced a case of a newborn with metabolic alkalosis and mild polyuria. The mother was suspected of self-medicating as we detected torasemide in the neonatal serum by LC-MS/MS method. CASE PRESENTATION: A Japanese pregnant woman in her 20s with mental illness, symptoms of panic and eating disorders, and a history of overdosing on over-the-counter medications, was referred to our hospital for birth control. She presented with vomiting following bulimia nervosa and hypokalemia. Her baby was delivered vaginally at 36 weeks and 4 days of gestation. The baby's blood gas analysis on day 0 revealed metabolic alkalosis (pH > 7.42, HCO3- > 28 mmHg). Up to 16 h after birth, mild polyuria and a urine output of 3.3 mL/kg/h were observed without the administration of diuretics. We suspected diuretic intake by the mother before delivery, because she had a history of taking torasemide before being referred to the hospital. As expected, torasemide was detected in the baby's serum. The serum concentration on the first day after delivery (4.80 ng/mL) gradually decreased to 0.45 ng/mL on day 5, whereas torasemide was not detected in the maternal serum. Neonatal metabolic alkalosis improved by day 3 following birth. CONCLUSIONS: This case suggests close counseling and monitoring of pregnant women before childbirth regarding their past and present use of drugs, particularly in those with mental illness.

    BACKGROUND: Valganciclovir (VGCV) is the first-line drug for preemptive therapy of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections. However, even when administered at the dose specified in the package insert, there is significant interindividual variability in the plasma concentrations of ganciclovir (GCV). In addition, correlations have been reported between the area under the concentration-time curve and therapeutic efficacy or adverse events. Therefore, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) can be used to improve the efficacy and safety of preemptive VGCV therapy. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate whether the dosage adjustment of VGCV based on TDM in patients undergoing preemptive therapy for CMV infections is associated with the successful completion rate of treatment without severe hematological adverse effects. METHODS: This phase II, single-center, single-arm trial aims to enroll 40 patients admitted at the Department of Rheumatology and Clinical Immunology, Kobe University Hospital, who will receive oral VGCV as preemptive therapy for CMV infections. Participants will begin treatment with VGCV at the dose recommended in the package insert, with subsequent dose adjustments based on weekly TDM results. The primary end point will be the proportion of patients who achieve CMV antigenemia negativity within 3 weeks without severe hematological adverse events. The secondary end points will include weekly changes in CMV antigen levels, total VGCV dose, and duration of preemptive therapy. For safety evaluation, the occurrence, type, and severity of VGCV-related adverse events will be analyzed. Additionally, this study will explore the correlations between the efficacy and safety of preemptive therapy and the pharmacokinetic parameters of GCV, CMV-polymerase chain reaction values, and nudix hydrolase 15 (NUDT15) genetic polymorphisms. The correlation between GCV plasma concentrations obtained from regular venous blood and blood concentrations will be examined using dried blood spots. RESULTS: This study began with patient recruitment in September 2024, with 5 participants enrolled as of June 16, 2025. The target enrollment is 40 participants, and the anticipated study completion is set for July 2027. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first study to investigate the impact of TDM intervention in patients receiving VGCV as preemptive therapy. The findings are postulated to provide valuable evidence regarding the utility of TDM in patients receiving VGCV as preemptive therapy.

    A woman in her 70s who was taking warfarin 3.75 mg/day had a prothrombin time-international normalized ratio (PT-INR) within the therapeutic range. Her medication for pulmonary hypertension was changed from bosentan to macitentan. After 40 days, she developed respiratory distress, anorexia, and vomiting caused by common cold. When she visited the pharmaceutical outpatient clinic without reservation, the pharmacist suspected that bosentan discontinuation, which cancelled cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 and CYP3A4 enzyme induction, and decreased vitamin K intake due to appetite loss had enhanced warfarin effect, causing PT-INR prolongation. The pharmacist requested the physician to examine the patient's PT-INR. Results showed that her PT-INR was >7. Hence, she was urgently hospitalized. Warfarin and macitentan were discontinued, and the patient's PT-INR decreased to 1.77 after the intravenous administration of vitamin K. Her appetite improved, and warfarin 2 mg/day was resumed. Additionally, when she had been administered macitentan, her hemoglobin levels decreased from 10.8 to 6.6 mg/dL. Therefore, the pharmacist and the physician during hospitalization planned to resume treatment with bosentan, but not with macitentan. The pharmacist proposed to increase the warfarin dose to 3.75 mg since the bosentan and warfarin interaction could lower PT-INR. Thereafter, the patient's PT-INR was controlled within the therapeutic range, and her hemoglobin level was 8-9 mg/dL. The patient was discharged on day 17 of admission. Thus, pharmacist intervention plays a significant role in warfarin control with consideration of drug-drug interaction in patients receiving pulmonary hypertension treatment.

    BACKGROUND: Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressant administered to patients undergoing lung transplantation. Itraconazole is often concomitantly used with tacrolimus to prevent fungal infections and increase tacrolimus concentration. However, the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus in Japanese lung transplant recipients and the effect of itraconazole on its pharmacokinetics have not been adequately evaluated. Population pharmacokinetic analysis was conducted to develop an optimal dose adjustment method for use upon itraconazole initiation in Japanese lung transplant recipients. METHODS: This study comprised Japanese lung transplant recipients whose blood tacrolimus and itraconazole concentrations were measured between January 2017 and December 2019. A nonlinear mixed-effects modeling program was used to explore the covariates of tacrolimus pharmacokinetics and effects of concomitant itraconazole use. Using the model, the optimal initial tacrolimus dose was calculated and a dose adjustment method comprising concomitant itraconazole use was developed. RESULTS: A total of 1693 tacrolimus trough blood concentrations and 85 itraconazole trough plasma concentrations were obtained from 43 patients. Postoperative day, albumin level, and administration route were extracted as covariates for tacrolimus pharmacokinetics. The drug-drug interaction between tacrolimus and itraconazole could be predicted more accurately by considering the concentration-dependent inhibition of itraconazole. The optimal initial tacrolimus dose was 2.0 mg twice daily for tube and 1.5 mg twice daily for oral administration. To maintain the target concentration, the tacrolimus dose was reduced by 60% upon itraconazole initiation. CONCLUSIONS: This study is the first to use population pharmacokinetic analysis to assess the interaction between tacrolimus and itraconazole in patients who underwent lung transplantation. These results provide useful insights for optimizing the initial tacrolimus dose for concomitant itraconazole use.

    BACKGROUND: Posaconazole is a vital drug to treat and prevent invasive fungal infections. Several factors, such as sex, body weight, total serum proteins, dietary intake, and severe mucositis, affect posaconazole pharmacokinetics (PKs). However, the relevance of other factors that affect the PKs of posaconazole in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is unknown. This study explored factors influencing the PKs of posaconazole in HSCT recipients and nontransplant patients with hematological diseases. METHODS: The authors conducted a single-institution, retrospective study. Forty-two Japanese inpatients receiving oral posaconazole tablets as prophylaxis for fungal infections were enrolled in this study. A one-compartment model with first-order absorption was used as the structural pharmacokinetic model. A population PK (PopPK) analysis was performed using a nonlinear mixed-effects modeling program, using a first-order conditional estimation method with interactions. Perl-speaks-NONMEM and R were used to evaluate the goodness of fit and visualize the output. RESULTS: In 29% of the enrolled patients, the serum concentration of posaconazole was <0.5 mcg/mL, considered the effective range. PopPK analysis revealed that the patient had undergone HSCT within 1 year, diarrhea occurred more than 5 times a day, and aspartate aminotransferase were covariates that influenced apparent clearance (CL/F). The CL/F of posaconazole was 1.43-fold higher after HSCT and 1.26-fold higher during diarrhea. CONCLUSIONS: PopPK analysis revealed that HSCT, diarrhea, and aspartate aminotransferase were factors associated with the CL/F of posaconazole. The trough concentration of posaconazole may be below the therapeutic range in a few patients with diarrhea and/or after HSCT. As invasive fungal infections in patients with hematologic diseases can be life-threatening, therapeutic drug monitoring of posaconazole is strongly recommended, and patients should be carefully monitored.

    BACKGROUND: Brexpiprazole is a second-generation antipsychotic approved in Japan in 2018; however, information on placental passage and breast milk transfer remains limited. In this report, the patient, a 30-year-old pregnant woman with schizophrenia, was medicated with brexpiprazole, risperidone, and quetiapine. METHODS: The study used high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to determine the concentrations of brexpiprazole, quetiapine, risperidone, and its active metabolite (paliperidone) in maternal and neonatal plasma, cord venous plasma, and breast milk. Maternal plasma samples were obtained approximately 2 and 8 hours after the last administration of antipsychotics on the day of delivery and at the estimated drugs' trough time on days 1, 3, and 5 after delivery. RESULTS: The maternal plasma concentrations of brexpiprazole, quetiapine, and paliperidone increased by approximately 3.5-fold on the fifth day compared with those on the day of delivery, whereas the risperidone concentration remained almost constant. Moreover, the neonatal plasma concentrations of the 4 drugs immediately after birth were indistinguishable from the umbilical cord concentrations and gradually decreased, except for risperidone. Relative infant doses of these compounds were below 1.1%. CONCLUSIONS: Pregnancy status notably alters the pharmacokinetic properties of antipsychotics. Therefore, close and careful monitoring of clinical symptoms should be considered during pregnancy and after delivery. Although brexpiprazole is transferred to neonates through the placenta, breastfeeding is still possible because the relative infant dose value of this drug was much less than 10%.

    Propofol's pharmacokinetics have been extensively studied using human blood samples and applied to target-controlled infusion systems; however, information on its concentration in the brain remains scarce. Therefore, this study aimed to simultaneously measure propofol plasma and brain concentrations in patients who underwent awake craniotomy and establish new pharmacokinetic model. Fifty-seven patients with brain tumors or brain lesions who underwent awake craniotomy were sequentially assigned to model-building and validating groups. Plasma and brain (lobectomy or uncapping margins) samples were collected at five time-points. The concentration of propofol was measured using high-performance liquid chromatography. Population pharmacokinetic analysis was conducted through a nonlinear mixed-effects modeling program using a first-order conditional estimation method with interactions. Propofol's brain concentrations were higher than its plasma concentrations. The measured brain concentrations were higher than the effect site concentrations using the previous models. Extended models were constructed based on measured concentrations by incorporating the brain/plasma partition coefficient (Kp value). Extended models showed good predictive accuracy for brain concentrations in the validating group. The Kp value functioned as a factor explaining retention in the brain. Our new pharmacokinetic models and Kp value can predict propofol's brain and plasma concentrations, contributing to safer and more stable anesthesia.

    INTRODUCTION: Insurance coverage for oral valganciclovir (VGCV) began in Japan in April 2023 on the basis of results, including our clinical trials for symptomatic congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease. The VGCV treatment is available throughout Japan, so clinicians must consider the likelihood of hearing improvement and the possibility of neutropenia before dosing. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We performed a substudy of an investigator-initiated, single-arm, prospective, multicenter, clinical trial in which 24 infants with symptomatic congenital CMV disease were orally administered 16 mg/kg VGCV twice daily for 6 months as an intervention. We examined the infants' baseline characteristics associated with improved hearing impairment or a severely reduced neutrophil count. RESULTS: Of the 24 patients, 4 had normal hearing on assessment of their ear with the best hearing. Hearing impairment improved in 14 patients and did not respond to VGCV treatment in 6 patients at the 6-month hearing assessment. CMV DNA levels in plasma at baseline were higher in patients in whom hearing did not respond to treatment. A neutrophil count <500/mm3 occurred in 5 (21%) patients for the first 6 weeks and in 8 (33%) patients for the first 6 months. A neutrophil count at screening and the lowest neutrophil count over the 6 months showed the highest correlation (r = 0.477, p = 0.019). CONCLUSIONS: Infants with a low plasma viral load at screening tend to have an improvement in hearing impairment. Clinicians should be aware of neutropenia during VGCV treatment particularly in patients with a low neutrophil count during screening.

    Remdesivir plays a key role in the treatment of coronavirus disease in 2019 (COVID-19). Haemodialysis is sometimes required for hospitalised patients with COVID-19, and patients undergoing haemodialysis are at an increased risk of severe COVID-19. In the present study, we report the serum concentrations of GS-441524, the active metabolite of remdesivir, in four patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Patient 1, a male aged 70s, received a loading dose of 200 mg remdesivir on day 1, followed by 100 mg remdesivir from day 2, according to the package insert as in non-haemodialysis patients. The mean trough serum concentration of GS-441524 was 783.5 ng/mL, which was approximately 7-fold higher than the mean for patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥ 60 mL/min. Patients 2-4 received a loading dose of 200 mg remdesivir on day 1, followed by 100 mg once every 2 days from day 2. The mean trough serum concentrations of GS-441524 were 302.2 ng/mL, 585.8 ng/mL and 677.3 ng/mL, respectively. These were 3 to 6-fold higher than the mean for patients with eGFR ≥60 mL/min. The target doses for patients 1, 2, 3, and 4 receiving CRRT were 13.6 mL/kg/h, 6.0-12.5 mL/kg/h, 20.1 mL/kg/h, and 15.1 mL/kg/h, respectively, using a polysulphone membrane. The package insert dose of remdesivir is an overdose for CRRT patients with a target dose of 10-20 mL/kg/h. In low-intensity CRRT, as in Japan, it may be necessary to extend the interval between the doses of remdesivir.

    BACKGROUND: Optimised antithrombotic therapy requires clinical experience and an understanding of the current guidelines. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate whether pharmacist interviews and interventions with patients taking oral antithrombotic drugs in the pharmaceutical outpatient cardiology clinic had favourable clinical outcomes including decreased bleeding. METHODS: The participants included patients visiting the outpatient clinic of cardiovascular internal medicine at the Kobe University Hospital from January-December 2017, and were taking oral antithrombotic medication. The observation period was from the first visit to the outpatient clinic to October 2021 or death. Patients who received pharmacist intervention more than twice were defined as the pharmacist intervention group. Two control patients per one pharmacist intervention group individual were selected from the non-intervention pool matched for age, gender and antithrombotic medication type. RESULTS: Of the 895 eligible patients, 132 were in the pharmacist intervention group and 264 were selected for the matched non-intervention group. Bleeding events according to the Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria over type 2 were significantly lower in the pharmacist intervention group compared with the non-intervention group (17.4% versus 28.4%, P = 0.019). There were no significant differences in mortality and heart failure hospitalisation frequency, stroke, or cardiovascular events between the groups. Multivariate analysis identified age (≥ 65 years) and pharmacist intervention as factors associated with bleeding (odds ratio = 2.29 and 0.51, respectively). CONCLUSION: Pharmacist intervention in the outpatient clinic of cardiovascular internal medicine was effective in reducing the risk of bleeding in patients undergoing antithrombotic therapy.

    Secondary non-response to infliximab (IFX) occurs in some patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Although therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is a useful tool to optimize IFX therapy, it is unclear whether it can help to identify the risk of secondary non-response. This study aimed to explore the utility of serum levels of IFX or other biomarkers to predict IFX discontinuation owing to secondary non-response. A single-center, retrospective study was conducted using the Kyoto University Rheumatoid Arthritis Management Alliance cohort database between 2011 and 2020. Serum IFX levels were measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. An electrochemiluminescence assay was used to quantify serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 and detect anti-drug antibodies. Eighty-four out of 310 patients were eligible for this study. The cutoff levels of biomarkers were determined by receiver operating characteristic analysis. IFX persistence was similar between groups stratified using IFX levels, tumor necrosis factor-α levels, interleukin-6 levels, and anti-drug antibodies positivity. The group with lower IFX and higher interleukin-6 levels had the worst therapy persistence (p = 0.017) and the most frequent disease worsening (90.0%, p < 0.001). Evaluating both interleukin-6 and IFX levels, not just IFX alone, enabled us to identify patients at risk of discontinuing IFX treatment. These findings support the utility of measuring IFX and interleukin-6 levels for successful maintenance therapy for RA.

    Higher amounts of circulating ultrafilterable platinum (fPt) are found in patients with renal dysfunction receiving a constant dose of oxaliplatin. However, the increased systemic fPt levels do not increase oxaliplatin-induced toxicities. We hypothesized that renal dysfunction has minimal effect on the elimination rate of reactive fPt, and that the DNA-binding capacity is one of the properties of reactive Pt species. This study aimed to quantify DNA-reactive fPt in plasma and to evaluate the impact of severe renal dysfunction on its pharmacokinetics. The pharmacokinetics of oxaliplatin was assessed in rats with bilateral nephrectomy (BNx) and in a hemodialysis patient who received mFOLFOX7 therapy for advanced metastatic gastric cancer. The platinum concentrations were determined using inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry. The amount of DNA-reactive fPt in the plasma was evaluated by the reaction between plasma and calf thymus DNA. Compared to the sham group in rats, the BNx group had significantly higher plasma total fPt concentrations at 24 h after drug administration. However, there was no significant difference in the plasma levels of DNA-reactive fPt between the two groups. In a hemodialysis patient, the plasma levels of total fPt decreased to 35.9 and 7.3% at 2 and 14 d after treatment, respectively. The plasma level of DNA-reactive fPt also decreased to 1.9 and 0.6%, respectively, on these days. This study showed that severe renal dysfunction has a limited effect on the plasma levels of DNA-reactive fPt after oxaliplatin administration.

    BACKGROUND: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders such as peptic ulcer disease and dyspepsia. However, several studies have suggested that PPI use increases the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). PPIs are often concomitantly used with antibiotics, such as macrolides and penicillins for Helicobacter pylori eradication. Although macrolide antibiotics are considered to have relatively low nephrotoxicity, they are well known to increase the risk of AKI due to drug-drug interactions. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between PPI use and the development of AKI. We also evaluated the effect of concomitant use of PPIs and macrolide antibiotics on the risk of AKI. METHODS: This self-controlled case series study was conducted using electronic medical records at Kyoto University Hospital. We identified patients who were prescribed at least one PPI and macrolide antibiotic between January 2014 and December 2019 and underwent blood examinations at least once a year. An adjusted incident rate ratio (aIRR) of AKI with PPI use or concomitant use macrolide antibiotics with PPIs was estimated using a conditional Poisson regression model controlled for the estimated glomerular filtration rate at the beginning of observation and use of potentially nephrotoxic antibiotics. RESULTS: Of the 3,685 individuals who received PPIs and macrolide antibiotics, 766 patients with episodes of stage 1 or higher AKI were identified. Any stage of AKI was associated with PPI use (aIRR, 1.80 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.60 to 2.04)). Stage 2 or higher AKI was observed in 279 cases, with an estimated aIRR of 2.01 (95% CI 1.57 to 2.58, for PPI use). For the period of concomitant use of macrolide antibiotics with PPIs compared with the period of PPIs alone, an aIRR of stage 1 or higher AKI was estimated as 0.82 (95% CI 0.60 to 1.13). CONCLUSIONS: Our findings added epidemiological information for the association between PPI use and an increased risk of stage 1 or higher AKI. However, we did not detect an association between the concomitant use of macrolide antibiotics and an increased risk of AKI in PPI users.

    BACKGROUND: Tacrolimus is a key drug in immunosuppressive therapy following lung transplantation. The blood tacrolimus levels are likely to fluctuate in the early postoperative period, and failure to maintain the tacrolimus trough level in target ranges is a risk factor for rejection. However, there is little information about the relationship between the time in therapeutic range (TTR) of the tacrolimus trough level (tacrolimus TTR) and clinical outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the association between tacrolimus TTR and acute rejection (AR) within the first three months after lung transplantation. METHODS: This was a retrospective study of patients who underwent lung transplantation at a single center. The target tacrolimus trough levels were 10-15 ng/mL, and tacrolimus TTR was calculated using the Rosendaal method. The cut-off value of the tacrolimus TTR was estimated by receiver operating characteristic analysis based on AR. RESULTS: The study included 90 patients. AR was observed in 26 patients. In this study, ''early-AR'' was defined as any AR within 2 weeks post-transplant (n = 22) and ''late-AR'' was defined as any AR after 1-month post-transplant (n = 4). For early AR, the relationship between tacrolimus TTR and the onset of AR was examined. There were no differences in the tacrolimus TTR between the early-AR group and non-AR group (35.7 ± 22.4 vs 31.5 ± 19.9%, P = 0.416). For late-AR, the relationship with tacrolimus TTR was examined every 10 d. The tacrolimus TTR during postoperative days (POD) 21-30 and POD 31-onset was significantly lower in the late-AR group than the no-AR group (50.0 ± 7.1 vs. 71.8 ± 18.0% and 37.0 ± 26.6 vs. 68.9 ± 31.5%, P < 0.05, respectively). The cutoff value of the tacrolimus TTR during POD 21-30 was estimated as 55.0%. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that a lower tacrolimus TTR is a predictor of late AR. A tacrolimus TTR of 55% or higher is necessary to reduce the risk of AR during this period after lung transplantation.

    Everolimus has recently been used to prevent graft rejection in liver transplantation and reduces the incidence of kidney dysfunction caused by calcineurin inhibitors. In this study, a population pharmacokinetic analysis was conducted to improve the individualization of everolimus therapy. Japanese post-liver transplant patients whose blood everolimus concentrations were measured between March 2018 and December 2020 were included in this study. A nonlinear mixed-effect modeling program was used to explore covariates that affect everolimus pharmacokinetics. Individual everolimus pharmacokinetic parameters estimated by the post-hoc Bayesian analysis using the final model were compared with the tacrolimus dose per trough concentration (D/C) ratio in each patient. The final model was extrapolated to pediatric liver transplant patients for external evaluation. A total of 937 concentrations from 87 adult patients were used in the model-building process. Everolimus clearance was significantly affected by the estimated glomerular filtration rate, concomitant use of fluconazole, sex, as well as total daily dose of everolimus (TDM effect). The estimated individual apparent clearance of everolimus by the post-hoc Bayesian analysis was moderately correlated with the D/C ratio of tacrolimus in each patient (R2  = 0.330, p < 0.0001). The estimation accuracy in pediatric patients was considerably high, except for one infant out of 13 patients. In conclusion, population pharmacokinetic analysis clarified several significant covariates for everolimus pharmacokinetics in liver transplant patients. Everolimus pharmacokinetics moderately correlated with tacrolimus pharmacokinetics and could be extrapolated from adult to pediatric patients by body size correction, except for infants.

    Chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis (COM) is a common adverse effect of cancer chemotherapy. Several clinical studies reported that repetitive use of mouthwashes containing 2.5-6.25% Hangeshashinto (HST), a Kampo formula, relieves COM, but the effect is insufficient. To solve this problem, we produced an oral ointment of 12% HST extract (considered quantitatively equivalent to 20% commercially available HST), which will increase the local concentrations of its active ingredients and prolong the contact time with COM. In this study, we evaluated the pharmaceutical properties (spreadability and stability) of HST oral ointment. In addition, its safety (oral mucosal irritation) and therapeutic effects on 5-fluorouracil-induced oral mucositis were evaluated in male Syrian hamsters. The HST ointment showed good spreadability and stability for more than 8 weeks at 4 °C. In the oral mucosal irritation test, topical application of HST ointment (0.2 g) three times per day for 14 days had no adverse effect on the oral mucosa of hamsters. In hamsters treated with 5-fluorouracil (60 mg/kg) twice, COM was induced by a submucosal injection of 5% acetic acid into the cheek pouch. When HST ointment (50 µg) was topically applied to the mucositis area once per day for 12 days, the area and macroscopic score of mucositis were significantly decreased, and the depth of the wound tended to be reduced compared with the lactose ointment-treated control animals. These findings suggest that HST oral ointment shows good properties in spreadability, stability, and safety, and elicits a therapeutic effect in an animal model of COM.

    PURPOSE: Biologics are structurally heterogeneous and can undergo biotransformation in the body. Etanercept (ETN) is a fusion protein composed of a soluble tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor and the Fc portion of human immunoglobulin G1. The N-terminus of ETN has a putative sequence cleaved by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4). The purpose of this study was to investigate the biotransformation of ETN in humans and mice and evaluate its effects on functional properties. METHODS: An analytical method using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was established. The N-terminal heterogeneity of ETN was assessed in the serum of patients with rheumatoid arthritis or mice receiving ETN. The in vitro N-terminal truncation was explored using recombinant DPP-4. The binding affinity to TNF-α or TNF-β was investigated using an in-house enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS: In the formulations, about 90% of ETN had an intact N-terminus, while the N-terminal truncated form was most abundant in the serum of the patients with rheumatoid arthritis and mice. Recombinant human DPP-4 cleaved two amino acids from the N-terminus of ETN in vitro. Sitagliptin, a DPP-4 inhibitor, inhibited N-terminal truncation both in vivo and in vitro. However, N-terminal truncation did not affect the binding ability to TNF-α or TNF-β and the pharmacokinetics of ETN. ETN biosimilars exhibited similar characteristics to the reference product in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSIONS: ETN undergoes N-terminal truncation in the body, and DPP-4 cleaves exogenous ETN via N-terminal proteolysis. The application of an MS-based assay will detect novel biotransformation of therapeutic proteins.

    Infliximab (IFX) has contributed to the treatment of several chronic inflammatory diseases, including Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC), psoriasis (Pso), and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the loss of response in some patients with long-term IFX therapy has been a major problem. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are limited in their short duration and lack of generalizability to the real-world population. We aimed to describe the persistence rates of IFX therapy to estimate its long-term effectiveness in clinical practice. Claims data from the Japan Medical Data Center database from January 2005 to June 2017 were used. The study population was identified based on the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision and the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System. The 5-year persistence rates of IFX therapy were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Overall, 281, 235, 41, and 222 patients with CD, UC, Pso, and RA, respectively, were selected. The 5-year persistence rates for IFX claims were 62.9, 38.9, 22.1, and 28.1% in patients with CD, UC, Pso, and RA, respectively. Patients with CD and UC administered IFX beyond the median dose had higher persistence rates. In patients with RA, female sex and no prior use of other biologics were associated with longer persistence. In conclusion, IFX persistence rates differed across chronic inflammatory diseases, which did not correspond to the results of the major RCTs. Factors associated with longer IFX persistence were identified in each disease group. Our findings may provide useful information to facilitate the proper use of IFX.

    Remdesivir, a prodrug of the nucleoside analog GS-441524, plays a key role in the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, owing to limited information on clinical trials and inexperienced clinical use, there is a lack of pharmacokinetic (PK) data in patients with COVID-19 with special characteristics. In this study, we aimed to measure serum GS-441524 concentrations and develop a population PK (PopPK) model. Remdesivir was administered at a 200 mg loading dose on the first day followed by 100 mg from day 2, based on the package insert, in patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) greater than or equal to 30 ml/min. In total, 190 concentrations from 37 Japanese patients were used in the analysis. The GS-441524 trough concentrations were significantly higher in the eGFR less than 60 ml/min group than in the eGFR greater than or equal to 60 ml/min group. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in four patients hardly affected the total body clearance (CL) and volume of distribution (Vd ) of GS-441524. A one-compartment model described serum GS-441524 concentration data. The CL and Vd of GS-441524 were significantly affected by eGFR readjusted by individual body surface area and age, respectively. Simulations proposed a dose regimen of 200 mg on day 1 followed by 100 mg once every 2 days from day 2 in patients with an eGFR of 30 ml/min or less. In conclusion, we successfully established a PopPK model of GS-441524 using retrospectively obtained serum GS-441524 concentrations in Japanese patients with COVID-19, which would be helpful for optimal individualized therapy of remdesivir.

    INTRODUCTION: Invasive Aspergillus infection (IA) in lung transplantation can result in poor outcomes. Itraconazole has been shown to be effective for fungal prophylaxis in lung transplant recipients. However, IA remains a major cause of death after lung transplantation. Therefore, we aimed to clarify the risk factors for IA on itraconazole prophylaxis. METHODS: We examined 120 recipients to uncover their IA epidemiology, clinical characteristics, and outcomes. In addition, a case-control study was performed to identify risk factors of IA. RESULTS: Of the 120 patients, 12 developed IA under itraconazole prophylaxis. The patient demographics and clinical characteristics were compared among the following two groups: IA group, 12 patients, and control group, 108 patients. Significant differences were observed in age (p = 0.004), history of interstitial pneumonia (p = 0.032), and CMV infection (p < 0.001) between the groups. Before the onset of IA, 92% (11/12) of the patients received itraconazole with trough concentrations above the therapeutic range. IA developed at 272.9 ± 114.1 days after lung transplantation. Of the 12 patients who developed IA, 66.7% (8/12) had early cessation of cytomegalovirus (CMV) prophylaxis due to toxicity of valganciclovir, as follows: leukocytopenia in 4 patients, and renal dysfunction in 4 patients. Of the 8 patients who stopped valganciclovir, 75% (6/8) developed CMV infection subsequently. CONCLUSION: This study suggests that older age, history of interstitial pneumonia, and CMV infection may be important risk factors for IA on itraconazole prophylaxis. These results may help clinicians optimize prophylactic strategies for IA.

    Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling is useful for evaluating differences in drug exposure among special populations, but it has not yet been employed to evaluate the absorption process of tacrolimus. In this study, we developed a minimal PBPK model with a compartmental absorption and transit model for renal transplant patients using available data in the literature and clinical data from our hospital. The effective permeability value of tacrolimus absorption and parameters for the single adjusting compartment were optimized via sensitivity analyses, generating a PBPK model of tacrolimus for renal transplant patients with good predictability. Next, we extrapolated the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus for liver transplant patients by changing the population demographic parameters of the model. When the physiological parameters of a population with normal liver function were changed to those of a population with impaired hepatic function (Child-Pugh class A) in the constructed renal transplant PBPK model, the predicted tacrolimus concentrations were consistent with the observed concentrations in liver transplant patients. In conclusion, the constructed tacrolimus PBPK model for renal transplant patients could predict the pharmacokinetics in liver transplant patients by slightly reducing the hepatic function, even at three weeks post-transplantation.

    Recent studies have revealed the impact of antibiotic-induced microbiome depletion (AIMD) on host glucose homeostasis. The kidney has a critical role in systemic glucose homeostasis; however, information regarding the association between AIMD and renal glucose metabolism remains limited. Hence, we aimed to determine the effects of AIMD on renal glucose metabolism by inducing gut microbiome depletion using an antibiotic cocktail (ABX) composed of ampicillin, vancomycin, and levofloxacin in mice. The results showed that bacterial 16s rRNA expression, luminal concentrations of short-chain fatty acids and bile acids, and plasma glucose levels were significantly lower in ABX-treated mice than in vehicle-treated mice. In addition, ABX treatment significantly reduced renal glucose and pyruvate levels. mRNA expression levels of glucose-6-phosphatase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in the renal cortex were significantly higher in ABX-treated mice than in vehicle-treated mice. We further examined the impact of AIMD on the altered metabolic status in mice after ischemia-induced kidney injury. After exposure to ischemia for 60 min, renal pyruvate concentrations were significantly lower in ABX-treated mice than in vehicle-treated mice. ABX treatment caused a more severe tubular injury after ischemia-reperfusion. Our findings confirm that AIMD is associated with decreased pyruvate levels in the kidney, which may have been caused by the activation of renal gluconeogenesis. Thus, we hypothesized that AIMD would increase the vulnerability of the kidney to ischemia-reperfusion injury.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This study aimed to determine the impact of antibiotic-induced microbiome depletion (AIMD) on renal glucose metabolism in mice. This is the first report confirming that AIMD is associated with decreased levels of pyruvate, a key intermediate in glucose metabolism, which may have been caused by activation of renal gluconeogenesis. We hypothesized that AIMD can increase the susceptibility of the kidney to ischemia-reperfusion injury.

    OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to assess whether the combined use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or antibiotics (penicillins, macrolides, cephalosporins or fluoroquinolones) was associated with an increased risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). DESIGN: A nested case-control study. SETTING: A health insurance claims database constructed by the Japan Medical Data Center. PARTICIPANTS: Patients were eligible if they were prescribed a PPI, NSAID and antibiotic at least once between January 2005 and June 2017. The patients who were new PPI users and did not have any history of renal diseases before cohort entry were included (n=219 082). The mean age was 45 and 44% were women. INTERVENTIONS: Current use of PPIs, NSAIDs, or antibiotics. PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURES: Acute kidney injury. RESULTS: During a mean follow-up of 2.4 (SD, 1.7) years, 317 cases of AKI were identified (incidence rate of 6.1/10 000 person-years). The current use of PPIs was associated with a higher risk of AKI compared with past PPI use (unadjusted OR, 4.09; 95% CI, 3.09 to 5.44). The unadjusted ORs of AKI for the current use of PPIs with NSAIDs, cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones, compared with the current use of PPIs alone, were 3.92 (95% CI, 2.40 to 6.52), 2.57 (1.43 to 4.62) and 3.08 (1.50 to 6.38), respectively. The effects of concurrent use of PPIs with NSAIDs, cephalosporins or fluoroquinolones remain significant in the adjusted model. The analyses on absolute risk of AKI confirmed the results from the nested case-control study. CONCLUSIONS: Concomitant use of NSAIDs with PPIs significantly increased the risk for AKI. Moreover, the results suggested that concomitant use of cephalosporins or fluoroquinolones with PPIs was associated with increased risk of incident AKI.

    Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has been reported as a cause of Parkinson's disease (PD). We have previously reported that the ubiquitin ligase HMG-CoA reductase degradation 1 (HRD1) and its stabilizing factor suppressor/enhancer lin-12-like (SEL1L) participate in the ER stress. In addition, we recently demonstrated that neuronal cell death is enhanced in the cellular PD model when SEL1L expression is suppressed compared with cell death when HRD1 expression is suppressed. This finding suggests that SEL1L is a critical key molecule in the strategy for PD therapy. Thus, investigation into whether microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate SEL1L expression in neurons should be interesting because relationships between miRNAs and the development of neurological diseases such as PD have been reported in recent years. In this study, using miRNA databases and previous reports, we searched for miRNAs that could regulate SEL1L expression and examined the effects of this regulation on cell death in PD models created by 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA). Five miRNAs were identified as candidate miRNAs that could modulate SEL1L expression. Next, SH-SY5Y cells were exposed to 6-OHDA, following which miR-101 expression was found to be inversely correlated with SEL1L expression. Therefore, we selected miR-101 as a candidate miRNA for SEL1L modulation. We confirmed that miR-101 directly targets the SEL1L 3' untranslated region, and an miR-101 mimic suppressed the 6-OHDA-induced increase in SEL1L expression and enhanced cell death. Furthermore, an miR-101 inhibitor suppressed this response. These results suggest that miR-101 regulates SEL1L expression and may serve as a new target for PD therapy.

    Infliximab (IFX) therapy has considerably improved the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, some patients still do not respond adequately to IFX therapy, or the efficacy of the treatment diminishes over time. Although previous studies have reported a relationship between serum IFX levels and therapeutic efficacy, the potential applications of IFX therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in clinical practice remain unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential applications of IFX TDM by analyzing a Japanese cohort database. Data were collected retrospectively from the Kyoto University Rheumatoid Arthritis Management Alliance cohort between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2018. Serum IFX levels were measured using a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometer. Out of the 311 RA patients that used IFX, 41 were eligible for the analysis. Serum IFX levels were significantly higher in responders than in non-responders. An optimal cut-off value was determined to be 0.32 μg/mL based on a receiver operating characteristic curve. At the IFX measurement point, a better therapeutic response was observed in the high IFX group (n = 32) than in the low IFX group (n = 9). Conversely, at the maximum effect point, when DAS28-ESR was the lowest between IFX introduction and measurement points, there were no differences in responder proportions between the low and high IFX groups. IFX primary ineffectiveness could be avoided with appropriate dose escalation without blood concentration measurement in clinical practice. In conclusion, IFX TDM could facilitate the identification of secondary non-responders and in turn, proper IFX use.

    Riboflavin (vitamin B2) plays an important role in cellular growth and function. Riboflavin transporter 2 (RFVT2) is widely expressed in several tissues, especially in the brain and salivary glands, and plays an important role in the tissue disruption of riboflavin. During the last 10 years, mutations in SLC52A2 have been documented in patients with a rare neurological disorder known as Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome. However, no suitable animal model of this disease has been reported. Here, we aimed to clarify the physiological role of RFVT2 using Slc52a2-mutant mice. The appearance, body weight, and plasma riboflavin concentration of Slc52a2 heterozygous mutant (Slc52a2+/-) mice were similar to those of wild-type (WT) mice. However, intercrossing between Slc52a2+/- mice failed to generate Slc52a2 homozygous mutant (Slc52a2-/-) mice. This suggested that Slc52a2 gene deficiency results in early embryonic lethality. Our findings suggested that RFVT2 is essential for growth and development, and its deletion may influence embryonic survival.

    Riboflavin transporter 3 (RFVT3), encoded by the SLC52A3 gene, is important for riboflavin homeostasis in the small intestine, kidney, and placenta. Our previous study demonstrated that Slc52a3 knockout (Slc52a3-/-) mice exhibited neonatal lethality and metabolic disorder due to riboflavin deficiency. Here, we investigated the influence of Slc52a3 gene disruption on brain development using Slc52a3-/- embryos. Slc52a3-/- mice at postnatal day 0 showed hypoplasia of the brain and reduced thickness of cortical layers. At embryonic day 13.5, the formation of Tuj1+ neurons and Tbr2+ intermediate neural progenitors was significantly decreased; no significant difference was observed in the total number and proliferative rate of Pax6+ radial glia. Importantly, the hypoplastic phenotype was rescued upon riboflavin supplementation. Thus, it can be concluded that RFVT3 contributes to riboflavin homeostasis in embryos and that riboflavin itself is required during embryonic development of the cerebral cortex in mice.

    Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic used for the treatment of Gram-positive infections. For adult patients, treatment with vancomycin requires effective therapeutic drug-monitoring (TDM) to achieve clinical outcomes and reduce the incidence of adverse effects. However, it remains still unclear whether the TDM with vancomycin is beneficial in yielding better clinical outcomes in pediatrics. The objective of our study was to evaluate whether the clinical response to treatment was associated with initial trough concentrations of vancomycin in pediatric patients. A retrospective observation study of 60 patients (age: 1 month-15 years) who had completed and qualified for analysis was conducted at Kyoto University Hospital. The response to treatment was assessed by the time to resolution of fever and time to 50% decline in C-reactive protein (CRP). In addition, we explored whether vancomycin trough level was associated with the baseline characteristics. Trend analysis showed that there were significant correlations between vancomycin trough level and age, body weight, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and serum albumin levels. The time to resolution of fever of the patients with higher initial trough level (≥ 5 µg/mL) was significantly lower than that of the patients with lower trough level (< 5 µg/mL). The higher vancomycin concentration tended to be associated with the shorter time to 50% decline in CRP. The findings suggest that initial trough concentration is important in achieving better outcomes with vancomycin treatment in pediatrics.

    In adult patients after living-donor liver transplantation, postoperative days and the cytochrome P450 3A5 (CYP3A5) genotype are known to affect tacrolimus pharmacokinetics. In this study, we constructed a physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model adapted to the clinical data and evaluated the contribution of liver regeneration as well as hepatic and intestine CYP3A5 genotypes on tacrolimus pharmacokinetics. As a result, liver function recovered immediately and affected the total body clearance of tacrolimus only during a limited period after living-donor liver transplantation. The clearance was about 1.35-fold higher in the recipients who had a liver with the CYP3A5*1 allele than in those with the CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype, whereas bioavailability was ~0.7-fold higher in the recipients who had intestines with the CYP3A5*1 allele than those with CYP3A5*3/*3. In conclusion, the constructed physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model clarified that the oral clearance of tacrolimus was affected by the CYP3A5 genotypes in both the liver and intestine to the same extent.

    令和3年度の研究計画は、肝移植患者におけるエベロリムスの母集団解析であった。京都大学医学部附属病院において2018年から2020年に新規にエベロリムスを開始した肝移植患者症例を集積し、非線形混合効果モデル(NONMEM)を用いて母集団解析を行い、エベロリムスの薬物動態パラメータに影響を与える共変量の探索を行なった。また、抽出した共変量に基づいた投与量シミュレーションよりエベロリムスの適切な投与量についての検討を行った。また、肝移植領域においてはエベロリムスは術後4週目以降に開始されることが推奨されているため、事前に免疫抑制剤としてタクロリムスなどのカルシニューリン阻害剤を使用しているケースが多い。そこで、エベロリムスの母集団モデルから算出した個別のクリアランス から患者個別の推奨投与量を算出し、タクロリムスの投与量/血中濃度比との間の単回帰分析により、適切なエベロリムスの投与量を求めることができるかについての検討も行なった。エベロリムスの推奨投与量とタクロリムスの投与量/血中濃度比の間には中等度の相関があることが判明し、事前情報としてのタクロリムスの血中濃度はエベロリムスの投与量設計に利用できる可能性が示唆された。また、小児におけるエベロリムスの投与症例の集積も行い、成人で作成した母集団モデルが小児に外挿できるかどうかをを検討した。現在、解析は終了しており、令和4年度中に学術誌に報告予定である。

    生体肝移植患者から得られたタクリムス血中濃度推移に適した生理学的薬物動態モデルを構築し,肝再生および肝臓・小腸CYP3A5遺伝子多型が薬物動態に与える影響を定量的に評価した.その結果,肝機能は生体肝移植後早期に回復し,タクロリムスの全身クリアランスへの寄与は移植後の限られた期間のみであることが判明した.また,見かけのクリアランスは肝および小腸のCYP3A5遺伝子多型の影響を同程度受けることが判明した.さらに,得られた薬物動態パラメータを用いて,肝・小腸CYP3A5遺伝子多型別の投与量ノモグラムを作成した.

    エベロリムスの物理学的データを文献値より収集し。エベロリムスのPBPKモデルを構築した。また、京都大学医学部附属病院にて2018年3月から2019年11月の期間に新規にエベロリムスを導入した患者について血中濃度のデータを収集した。実測値の収集において、遺伝子多型等を考慮しない場合、エベロリムスの血中濃度投与量比(C/D比)はタクロリムスのC/D比と相関が見られないことがわかった。

    研究目的 : カルシニューリン阻害薬であるタクロリムスは、肝移植後の急性拒絶反応予防をはじめとして、臨床現場において広く用いられている。タクロリムスのバイオアベイラビリティには大きな個体差が存在し、タクロリムスを経口投与した際に得られる血中濃度は、静脈内投与を行った際と比較して、患者間のばらつきが大きくなる。そこで本研究では、生理学的薬物速度論(Physiologically based Pharmacokinetic, PBPK)に基づくモデル構築とその有用性評価を行うことを目的とした。PBPKモデルはいわゆる”bottom up”によるモデル構築法であり、解析対象者や研究施設の特性によって影響を受けやすい母集団薬物動態解析と比較して、一般化可能性の高いモデル構築が行えることを利点とする。 研究方法 : 本研究では、PBPKモデルを用いて、CYP3A5の遺伝子多型及び肝臓の再生という生理学的な変化がタクロリムスの薬物動態に及ぼす影響を定量的に評価するとともに、タクロリムスの投与設計を援助する薬物動態モデル構築を目指した。具体的には、文献値または実測データとPBPKモデルのシミュレータであるSimcypを用いることにより、生体肝移植患者のポピュレーションデータおよびタクロリムスのPBPKモデル作成を行なった。また、作成したモデルを用いてドナーとレシピエントの多型ごと、肝移植後の日数ごとの適切なタクロリムスの投与量を推定した。 研究結果 : 本研究において、生体肝移植患者の肝機能を考慮したPBPKモデルを構築し、モデルから予測されるタクロリムス血中濃度は実測値とよく相関することを示した。また、本モデルを用いて、患者の特性や移植後日数に応じた最適な投与方法を提案することができた。
