Abstract

Aims: To optimize the dosing regimen in patients with severe renal impairment based on population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PPK/PD) analysis. Methods: The pharmacokinetics and safety of nemonoxacin was evaluated in a single-dose, open-label, nonrandomized, parallel-group study after single oral dose of 0.5 g nemonoxacin capsule in 10 patients with severe renal impairment and 10 healthy controls. Both blood and urine samples were collected within 48 hours after admission and determined the concentrations. A PPK model was built using nonlinear mixed effects modelling. The probability of target attainment (PTA) and the cumulative fraction of response (CFR) against S. Pneumoniae and S. aureus was calculated by Monte Carlo simulation. Results: The data best fitted to a two-compartment model, from which the PPK parameters were estimated, including clearance (8.55 L/h), central compartment volume (80.8 L), and peripheral compartment volume (50.6 L). The accumulative urinary excretion was 23.4±6.5% in severe renal impairment patients and 66.1±16.8% in healthy controls. PPK/PD modeling and simulation of 4 dosage regimens found that nemonoxacin 0.5 g q48h was the optimal dosing regimen in severe renal impairment patients, evidenced by higher PTA (92.7%) and CFR (>99%) at nemonoxacin MIC ≤ 1 mg/L against S. pneumoniae and S. aureus. The alternative regimens (0.25 g q24h; loading dose 0.5 g on Day 1 followed by 0.25 g q24h) were insufficient to cover the pathogens even if MIC ≤ 0.5 mg/L. Conclusion: An extended dosing interval (0.5 g q48h) may be appropriate for optimal efficacy of nemonoxacin in case of severe renal impairment.
