Abstract
The impact of chronic kidney disease (CKD) on drug disposition is essential to optimize drug dosing in CKD. Clarifying the role of drug transporters and metabolic enzymes for nonrenally cleared drugs has been an emerging clinical interest for dose optimization. Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling can provide valuable insight in this research area. The primary aim of this dissertation was to develop a novel PBPK approach and measurement procedure, called individualized PBPK modeling of rate data (iPBPK-R) to simultaneously estimate parameters for nonrenal elimination pathways in individuals and evaluate the effect of CKD on these pathways. We first described iPBPK-R which is a signal processing based indirect measurement method for measuring enzyme and transporter activities for individuals. In two subsequent studies, iPBPK-R was applied to 14CO2 production rate data of erythromycin breath test (EBT) in healthy subjects and patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving hemodialysis, respectively. Rate data for 14CO2 production, as the approximate first derivative of 14CO2 concentration data, allows iPBPK-R to successfully estimate parameters for nonrenal elimination pathways using the single phenotypic probe 14C-erythromycin regardless of rate-limiting steps. iPBPK-R analysis indicated that CYP3A4 activity is much lower than the baseline IVIVE input in healthy subjects, and females had a higher CYP3A4 activity than males. In ESRD patients, estimated adjustment factors indicated that hemodialysis increased CYP3A4 activity minimally while OATPs activity varied among patients without improvement across hemodialysis. BUN was not correlated with any of the nonrenal elimination pathways suggesting that BUN is not a good candidate biomarker. Lastly, iPBPK-R was extended to its application to multiple concentration datasets of temsirolimus and its metabolite sirolimus in healthy subjects. Both temsirolimus and sirolimus are substrates of CYP3A4 and P-gp, and the effect of concomitantly administered rifampin on these elimination pathways was evaluated. The findings showed that rifampin did not affect CYP3A4 activity on temsirolimus but increased it for sirolimus by 73%. Rifampin did not affect P-gp activity. Collectively, iPBPK-R may facilitate drug dosing based on personalized parameter estimates of nonrenal elimination pathways. iPBPK-R may enable uremic toxin-based biomarker research towards precision dosing in CKD as sketched with hierarchical cluster analysis.
