RESUMO

PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate the interactions between posaconazole (POS) and intravenously/orally administered cyclosporine A (CsA) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. METHODS: We included 118 allogeneic HSCT patients who received CsA and POS simultaneously between January 2017 and June 2020 in this study. The ratio of CsA blood concentration (ng/mL) to dosage (mg/day) (C/D) before and after POS initiation was compared. RESULTS: After the initiation of POS, the level of CsA increased 1 to 2 times in 66% (78/118) of patients compared to those without POS. However, the CsA C/D ratio increased by more than threefold in 6% (7/118) of patients after POS initiation, with an increase of more than fourfold in two patients. The median C/D ratio of CsA increased from 0.89 to 1.23 (P < 0.001) and 0.78 to 1.22 (P < 0.001) after POS initiation when CsA was administered intravenously and orally, respectively. In patients who received POS at the time of transition from intravenous to oral CsA, the value increased from 1.01 to 1.38 (P = 0.001). The route of administration had no significant effect on the change in the CsA C/D ratio (P = 0.615). Additionally, we observed the time required for the C/D ratio to reach a plateau after POS initiation was similar on days 13, 8, and 15 under various scenarios. CONCLUSION: POS treatment increased blood CsA levels. A large variability was found in the fold-change in the CsA C/D ratio. Therefore, CsA doses should be adjusted by closely monitoring the blood levels of CsA after POS initiation.

RESUMO

Purpose: Dipeptidylpeptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, including linagliptin, alogliptin, saxagliptin, sitagliptin, and vildagliptin, are used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients in China. This study assessed the economic outcomes of different DPP-4 inhibitors in patients with T2DM inadequately controlled with metformin in the Chinese context. Materials and Methods: In this study, the validated Chinese Outcomes Model for T2DM (COMT) was conducted to project economic outcomes from the perspective of Chinese healthcare service providers. Efficacy and safety, medical expenditure, and utility data were derived from the literature, which were assigned to model variables. The primary outputs of the model included the lifetime costs, quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), and incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER). One-way and probability sensitivity analysis was conducted to assess the potential uncertainties of parameters. Results: Of the five competing strategies, alogliptin 25 mg strategy yielded the most significant health outcome, which associated with improvements in discounted QALY of 0.007, 0.014, 0.011, and 0.022 versus linagliptin 5 mg, saxagliptin 5 mg, sitagliptin 100 mg and vildagliptin50 mg, respectively. The sitagliptin 100 mg strategy was the cheapest option. The ICER of alogliptin 25 mg against sitagliptin 100 mg strategy was $6,952 per additional QALY gained, and the rest of the strategies were dominated or extended dominated. The most influential parameters were the cost of DPP-4 inhibitors and their treatment efficacy. Conclusions: These results suggested that alogliptin was a preferred treatment option compared with other DPP-4 inhibitors for Chinese patients whose T2DM are inadequately controlled on metformin monotherapy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Delayed excretion of methotrexate can lead to life-threatening toxicity that may result in treatment cessation, irreversible organ damage, and death. Various factors have been demonstrated to influence the pharmacokinetic process of methotrexate, including genetic and nongenetic factors. METHODS: We investigated the genetic factors primarily related to the metabolic pathway of methotrexate in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia with delayed elimination, defined as C44-48h ≥ 1.0µmol/L in this study. A total of 196 patients (delayed excretion group: 98; normal excretion group: 98) who received CCCG-ALL-2015 protocol after propensity score-matched analysis were included in the study. Twenty-eight target single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were analyzed by multiplex polymerase chain reaction and sequencing, and 25 SNPs were finally included in the study. RESULTS: The genotype distribution of SLCO1B1 rs2306283 SNP was different between the delayed and normal excretion groups. SLCO1B1 rs2306283 AA carriers had a significantly lower methotrexate C44-48h /D ratio than GG carriers in both groups. Furthermore, compared with the normal excretion group, SLCO1B1 rs2306283 AG and GG were risk factors for developing oral mucositis (odds ratio [OR]: 2.13; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.11-4.08; P < .001), hepatotoxicity (OR: 2.12; 95% CI: 1.26-3.56; P < .001), and myelosuppression (OR: 1.21; 95% CI: 1.04-1.41; P = .005) in delayed excretion group. CONCLUSIONS: The results from this study indicate the potential role of SLCO1B1 rs2306283 as a pharmacogenomic marker to guide and optimize methotrexate treatment for delayed elimination in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: External evaluation is an important issue in the population pharmacokinetic analysis of antibiotics. The purpose of this review was to summarize the current approaches and status of external evaluations and discuss the implications of external evaluation results for the future individualization of dosing regimens. METHODS: We systematically searched the PubMed and EMBASE databases for external evaluation studies of population analysis and extracted the relevant information from these articles. A total of 32 studies were included in this review. RESULTS: Vancomycin was investigated in 17 (53.1%) articles and was the most studied drug. Other studied drugs included gentamicin, tobramycin, amikacin, amoxicillin, ceftaroline, meropenem, fluconazole, voriconazole, and rifampicin. Nine (28.1%) studies were prospective, and the sample size varied widely between studies. Thirteen (40.6%) studies evaluated the population pharmacokinetic models by systematically searching for previous studies. Seven (21.9%) studies were multicenter studies, and 27 (84.4%) adopted the sparse sampling strategy. Almost all external evaluation studies of antibiotics (93.8%) used metrics for prediction-based diagnostics, while relatively fewer studies were based on simulations (46.9%) and Bayesian forecasting (25.0%). CONCLUSION: The results of external evaluations in previous studies revealed the poor extrapolation performance of existing models of prediction- and simulation-based diagnostics, whereas the posterior Bayesian method could improve predictive performance. There is an urgent need for the development of standards and guidelines for external evaluation studies.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to assess the bioequivalence of a new generic formulation and the branded formulation of levocetirizine dihydrochloride in healthy Chinese volunteers under fasting and fed conditions, and food-intake effect on the pharmacokinetic properties is also evaluated. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Volunteers were randomly allocated into two groups to receive a single oral dose of generic formulation and branded formulation under fasting or fed conditions, respectively. Blood samples were collected at designated time points. Plasma concentrations of levocetirizine were determined by UFLC-MS/MS. Safety evaluations were carried out through the study. The main pharmacokinetic parameters of the two formulations of levocetirizine were calculated using non-compartmental analysis incorporated in WinNonlin® 7.0 software. RESULTS: Forty-nine volunteers were enrolled; 46 completed the studies. Under fasting and fed conditions, the 90% confidence intervals for the geometric mean of generic/branded ratios were in the range of 94.75-107.24% and 99.98-114.69% for the maximum observed concentration, and 97.13-102.50% and 98.36-103.98% for the area under the concentration-time curve. As a result of food intake before administration, the reduced rate and extent of absorption of levocetirizine were observed. Both formulations were generally well tolerated, with no serious adverse reactions reported. CONCLUSION: The two formulations demonstrated essentially identical pharmacokinetic profiles and were all well within the FDA/CFDA bioequivalence standards. Meanwhile, food intake can delay the absorption rate and reduced the bioavailability of levocetirizine in healthy Chinese volunteers.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of osimertinib with gefitinib or erlotinib as first-line and sequential therapy for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in China. METHODS: The Markov model was used, and the study included 3 health states over a 10-year period. Transition probabilities and safety data were collected from the FLAURA (AZD9291 versus gefitinib or erlotinib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic Non-small Cell Lung Cancer) trial. Cost and utility values were derived from local charges and literature. Sensitivity analyses were performed to observe model stability. FINDINGS: The strategy with gefitinib or erlotinib first-line therapy and second-line gene-guided osimertinib therapy (GE-T790M) resulted in a gain of 0.31 quality-adjusted life year (QALY) at a cost of $15,200.95 per patient compared with the gefitinib or erlotinib first-line therapy and second-line chemotherapy (GE-chemotherapy). The incremental QALY and incremental cost values for first-line osimertinib therapy compared with GE-chemotherapy was 0.96 and $69,420.76, respectively. Compared with the GE-T790M strategy (0.96 QALY and $29,223.33), first-line osimertinib was estimated to be more effective (1.61 QALYs) and more costly ($83,443.14). Relative to the GE-chemotherapy strategy, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were $47,873.96 and $71,954.08 per QALY gained with GE-T790M and the osimertinib first-line strategy. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio for first-line osimertinib versus GE-T790M was estimated to be $83,766.61. The results were found to be robust for univariate and multivariable sensitivity analyses. IMPLICATIONS: Gefitinib or erlotinib first-line and chemotherapy second-line strategies were the most cost-effective first-line treatments for EGFR mutations in patients with NSCLC. Gefitinib or erlotinib first-line and gene-guided osimertinib second-line strategies were more cost-effective than osimertinib first-line treatment for patients who preferred osimertinib administration in China.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Kidney cancer is one of the most common cancers in the USA causing 14,400 deaths per year. The phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) has been extensively documented as a tumor suppresser gene in cancer. However, there is unclear evidence for its clinicopathological and prognostic role in kidney cancer. METHODS: A systematic review of literature assessing PTEN expression and clinical outcome in patients with kidney cancer. Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, and Chinese databases were searched for collecting for the eligible studies providing sufficient information. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and hazard ratios (HRs) were respectively used to evaluate the association between PTEN levels and the clinicopathological features and clinical outcomes. RESULTS: A total of 35 studies enrolling 4532 patients were finally included in this study. For the survival outcome, the result suggested that shorter overall survival (OS) was correlated with low PTEN expression (HR = 0.57, 95% CIs: 0.45-0.74, P < 0.0001). The meta-analysis indicated a significantly increased risk of tumorigenesis in the PTEN low-level group relative to the control group (OR = 0.098, 95% CIs: 0.067-0.143, P < 0.001). Moreover, the results displayed the positive correlation between poorer differentiation (OR = 0.234, 95% CIs: 0.133-0.410, P < 0.001), distant metastasis (OR = 0.179, 95% CIs: 0.092-0.350, P = 0.001), lymph node metastasis (OR = 0.252, 95% CIs: 0.113-0.563, P < 0.001), advanced clinical stages (OR = 0.233, 95% CI: 0.133, 0.406, P < 0.001) and low PTEN expression. Finally, there was no obvious publication bias found in the meta-analysis. CONCLUSIONS: Decreased PTEN was associated with poorer survival outcomes of patients with kidney cancer and PTEN acts as a tumor suppressor in tumorigeneses and progression in kidney cancer.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have obvious effects on chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), but they are expensive in China. Moreover, the overall cost of treatment of CML is high and the medical economic burden of patients with CML on the government is heavy. This study tested the cost effectiveness of imatinib, nilotinib, and dasatinib as first-line treatment in Chinese patients who were first diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia in the chronic phase (CML-CP). METHODS: A state-transition Markov model combining clinical effectiveness, utility, and cost data was used. Sensitivity analyses were conducted to determine the robustness of the model outcomes. RESULTS: The imatinib-first, dasatinib-first, and nilotinib-first strategy offered patients 9.76, 9.87, and 9.72 quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) at a cost of US$303,502.42, US$381,681.03, and US$305,509.92 over 20 years, respectively. The nilotinib-first strategy exhibited the lowest utility and highest price and was thus eliminated. An incremental cost-effectiveness analysis of the imatinib-first strategy and the dasatinib-first strategy showed that the dasatinib-first strategy yielded an incremental cost-utility ratio (ICER) of 710,714.64 $/QALY compared with the imatinib-first strategy, which exceeded the threshold; hence, the dasatinib-first strategy was not cost effective and was eliminated. The results were robust for multiple sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION: From the perspective of the Chinese medical system, imatinib is likely to be more cost effective than dasatinib and nilotinib for patients who were first diagnosed with CML-CP.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) is widespread in China. To date, no study available has specifically determined the prevalence and risk factors of inpatients with CRE intestinal colonization in this region. METHODS: Stool samples were screened for the presence of CRE in a Chinese university hospital. A case-control study was performed to identify risk factors associated with CRE fecal colonization. Case patients were those who had CRE colonization. Control subjects had no microbiologic evidence of CRE colonization. Clinical data were obtained from the medical record. RESULTS: The prevalence of CRE was 6.6% (20/303 patients), of which 8 had carbapenemase-producing isolates. KPC-2, IMP-4, and NDM-1 were detected from these isolates. Hospital readmissions (odds ratio [OR], 58.067; 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 5.517-611.134; P = .001), sickbed changes (OR, 45.904; 95% CI: 8.484-248.376; P < .001), invasive procedures (OR, 8.322; 95% CI: 1.996-34.690; P = .004), and vancomycin (OR, 11.552; 95% CI: 1.155-115.574; P = .037) were independently associated with CRE colonization. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that asymptomatic intestinal carriage of CRE was relatively common in one region of China. Our study suggested that the implementation of effective infection control measures is urgently required to control the transmission of CRE in health care facilities in this country.
