Methods: Three groups of three healthy male volunteers (aged 19-35 y, 67-102 kg) received 290, 580, and 1,160 mg GPI 15715 as a constant rate infusion over 10 min. The plasma concentrations of GPI 15715 and propofol were measured from arterial and venous blood samples up to 24 h. Pharmacokinetics were analyzed with compartment models. Pharmacodynamics were assessed by clinical signs.
Results: GPI 15715 was well tolerated without pain on injection. Two subjects reported a transient unpleasant sensation of burning or tingling at start of infusion. Loss of consciousness was achieved in none with 290 mg and in one subject with 580 mg. After 1,160 mg, all subjects experienced loss of consciousness at propofol concentrations of 2.1 +/- 0.6 [mu]g/ml. A two-compartment model for GPI 15715 (central volume of distribution, 0.07 l/kg; clearance, 7 ml [middle dot] kg-1 min-1; terminal half-life, 46 min) and a three-compartment model for propofol (half-lives: 2.2, 20, 477 min) best described the data. The maximum decrease of blood pressure was 25%; the heart rate increased by approximately 35%. There were no significant laboratory abnormalities. 相似文献
Methods: This double-blind, crossover, phase 1 study compared IDD-D Propofol with Diprivan using two consecutive protocols of 12 subjects each. Subjects in protocol 1 received a single bolus of 2.5 mg/kg, and those in protocol 2 received the same induction dose followed by a 30-min infusion at 0.2 mg [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1. Venous samples were taken for propofol concentration and biochemical measurements. Induction and emergence times were measured by termination of voluntary counting and responding to command, respectively.
Results: Plasma concentrations were not different between the two formulations. Induction time was 14% longer with IDD-D Propofol than with Diprivan (N = 24, protocols 1 and 2 combined, 53.3 +/- 12.1 s and 46.9 +/- 7.8 s, respectively;P = 0.002). Emergence time was not significantly different for protocol 1 but was marginally longer (P = 0.04) for IDD-D Propofol in protocol 2 (1,197 +/- 445 s [n = 11] and 1,254 +/- 468 s [n = 12], respectively). As expected because of the inherent characteristics of the formulations, plasma triglycerides were elevated for Diprivan but not for IDD-D Propofol; octanoate, a metabolite of medium-chain triglycerides, was elevated only with IDD-D Propofol. Octanoate was elevated to concentrations below those considered toxic. Plasma concentrations of other biochemical markers of medium-chain triglyceride metabolism, e.g., ketones, showed no significant changes. Interestingly, there were significant differences between male and female subjects in the propofol plasma concentrations and time to awakening with both drugs. 相似文献
Methods: Thirty-one healthy volunteers aged 20-79 yr were given an intravenous bolus of propofol 2 mg/kg, followed by variable rate infusion for 60 min. Each volunteer was studied twice with different formulations at an interval of 1 week. Arterial concentrations of propofol were measured, and Bispectral Index was used as a surrogate measure of propofol effect. The induction and recovery characteristics including bioequivalence were evaluated by noncompartmental analysis. The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics were investigated using a population approach with mixed effects modeling. The rate, severity, and causal relation of adverse events were analyzed.
Results: Both formulations were bioequivalent. The observed time to peak effect after a bolus of both formulations was 1.5 min. Plasma concentration of propofol at loss of consciousness, time to loss of consciousness after a bolus, and time to recovery of consciousness after discontinuation of infusion did not show significant differences. The population pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics revealed a variety of differences between two formulations. Aquafol showed similar safety profile to Diprivan(R). 相似文献
Methods: The pH, particle size, and osmolarity of microemulsion propofol were measured using a pH meter, particle size analyzer, and cryoscopic osmometer, respectively. The aqueous free propofol and plasma bradykinin were measured by a dialysis method and radioimmunoassay, respectively. Microemulsion propofol was administered by zero-order infusion of 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 mg [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 for 20 min in 30 rats. The electroencephalographic approximate entropy was used as a surrogate measure of propofol effect.
Results: The pH, osmolarity, and particle size of microemulsion propofol are 7.5, 280 mOsm/l, and 67.0 +/- 28.5 nm, respectively. The aqueous free propofol concentration in microemulsion propofol was 63.3 +/- 1.2 [mu]g/ml. When mixed with human blood, microemulsion propofol did not generate bradykinin in plasma. Although microemulsion propofol had nonlinear pharmacokinetics, a two-compartment model with linear pharmacokinetics best described the time course of the propofol concentration as follows: V1 = 0.143 l/kg, k10 = 0.175 min-1, k12 = 0.126 min-1, k21 = 0.043 min-1. The pharmacodynamic parameters in a sigmoid Emax model were as follows: E0 = 1.18, Emax = 0.636, Ce50 = 1.87 [mu]g/ml, [gamma] = 1.28, ke0 = 1.02 min-1. 相似文献
Methods: After craniofacial surgery, 22 of the 44 evaluated infants (aged 3-17 months) in the pediatric intensive care unit received propofol (2-4 mg [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] h-1) during a median of 12.5 h, based on the COMFORT-Behavior score. COMFORT-Behavior scores and Bispectral Index values were recorded simultaneously. Population pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modeling was performed using NONMEM V (GloboMax LLC, Hanover, MD).
Results: In the two-compartment model, body weight (median, 8.9 kg) was a significant covariate. Typical values were Cl = 0.70 [middle dot] (BW/8.9)0.61 l/min, Vc = 18.8 l, Q = 0.35 l/min, and Vss = 146 l. In infants who received no sedative, depth of sedation was a function of baseline, postanesthesia effect (Emax model), and circadian night rhythm. In agitated infants, depth of sedation was best described by baseline, postanesthesia effect, and propofol effect (Emax model). The propofol concentration at half maximum effect was 1.76 mg/l (coefficient of variation = 47%) for the COMFORT-Behavior scale and 3.71 mg/l (coefficient of variation = 145%) for the Bispectral Index. 相似文献
Methods: This was a randomized, balanced crossover, placebo-controlled, double-blind, clinical investigation. Twelve healthy 21- to 37-yr-old subjects were studied after providing institutional review board-approved written informed consent. Each subject received a 2-mg/kg intravenous propofol bolus 1 h after placebo (control) or 40 mg intravenous parecoxib on two occasions. Venous concentrations of propofol, parecoxib, and parecoxib metabolites were determined by mass spectrometry. Pharmacokinetic parameters were determined by noncompartmental analysis. Pharmacodynamic measurements included clinical endpoints, cognitive function (memory, Digit-Symbol Substitution Tests), subjective self-assessment of recovery (Visual Analog Scale) performed at baseline, 15, 30, 60 min after propofol, and sedation depth measured by Bispectral Index.
Results: Propofol plasma concentrations were similar between placebo- and parecoxib-treated subjects. No significant differences were found in pharmacokinetic parameters (Cmax, clearance, elimination half-life, volume of distribution) or pharmacodynamic parameters (clinical endpoints [times to: loss of consciousness, apnea, return of response to voice], Bispectral Index scores, Digit-Symbol Substitution Test scores, memory, Visual Analog Scale scores, propofol EC50). 相似文献
Methods: Anesthesia was induced with alfentanil and propofol and maintained with nitrous oxide and isoflurane in 12 healthy volunteers. Train-of-four stimuli were applied to the ulnar nerve, and the mechanical response of the adductor pollicis was measured. Volunteers were actively cooled or warmed until their distal esophageal temperatures were in one of four ranges: < 35.0[degrees]C, 35.0-35.9[degrees]C, 36.0-36.9[degrees]C, and >= 37.0[degrees]C. With temperature stabilized, vecuronium was infused at 5 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 until the first response of each train-of-four had decreased by 70%. Arterial blood (for vecuronium analysis) was sampled at intervals until the first response recovered to at least 90% of its prevecuronium level. Vecuronium, 20 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1, was then infused for 10 min, and arterial blood was sampled at intervals for up to 7 h. Population-based nonlinear mixed-effects modeling was used to examine the effect of physical characteristics and core temperature on vecuronium pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics.
Results: Decreasing core temperature over 38.0-34.0[degrees]C decreases the plasma clearance of vecuronium (11.3% per [degrees]C), decreases the rate constant for drug equilibration between plasma and effect site (0.023 min-1 per [degrees]C), and increases the slope of the concentration-response relationship (0.43 per [degrees]C). 相似文献
Methods: The authors evaluated healthy volunteers aged 25-81 yr. A bolus dose (2 mg/kg or 1 mg/kg in persons older than 65 yr) and an infusion (25, 50, 100, or 200 [micro sign]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1) of the older or the new (containing EDTA) formulation of propofol were given on each of two different study days. The propofol concentration was determined in frequent arterial samples. The electroencephalogram (EEG) was used to measure drug effect. A statistical technique called semilinear canonical correlation was used to select components of the EEG power spectrum that correlated optimally with the effect-site concentration. The effect-site concentration was related to drug effect with a biphasic pharmacodynamic model. The plasma effect-site equilibration rate constant was estimated parametrically. Estimates of this rate constant were validated by comparing the predicted time of peak effect with the time of peak EEG effect. The probability of being asleep, as a function of age, was determined from steady state concentrations after 60 min of propofol infusion.
Results: Twenty-four volunteers completed the study. Three parameters of the biphasic pharmacodynamic model were correlated linearly with age. The plasma effect-site equilibration rate constant was 0.456 min-1. The predicted time to peak effect after bolus injection ranging was 1.7 min. The time to peak effect assessed visually was 1.6 min (range, 1-2.4 min). The steady state observations showed increasing sensitivity to propofol in elderly patients, with C50 values for loss of consciousness of 2.35, 1.8, and 1.25 [micro sign]g/ml in volunteers who were 25, 50, and 75 yr old, respectively. 相似文献
Methods: Ten volunteers received infusions of remifentanil and alfentanil on separate study sessions using a randomized, open-label crossover design. Arterial blood samples were analyzed to determine drug blood concentrations. The electroencephalogram was employed as the measure of drug effect. The pharmacokinetics were characterized using a moment analysis, a nonlinear mixed effects model (NONMEM) population analysis, and context-sensitive half-time computer simulations. After processing the raw electroencephalogram to obtain the spectral edge parameter, the pharmacodynamics were characterized using an effect compartment, inhibitory maximum effect model.
Results: Pharmacokinetically, the two drugs are similar in terms of steady-state distribution volume (VDss), but remifentanil's central clearance (CLc) is substantially greater. The NONMEM analysis population pharmacokinetic parameters for remifentanil include a CLc of 2.9 l *symbol* min sup -1, a VDss of 21.81, and a terminal half-life of 35.1 min. Corresponding NONMEM parameters for alfentanil are 0.36 l *symbol* min sup -1, 34.11, and 94.5 min. Pharmacodynamically, the drugs are similar in terms of the time required for equilibration between blood and the effect-site concentrations, as evidenced by a T12 Ke0 for remifentanil of 1.6 min and 0.96 min for alfentanil. However, remifentanil is 19 times more potent than alfentanil, with an effective concentration for 50% maximal effect of 19.9 ng *symbol* ml sup -1 versus 375.9 ng *symbol* ml sup -1 for alfentanil. 相似文献
Methods: With Human Studies Committee approval, 18 healthy volunteers received five consecutive target-controlled propofol infusions. During each infusion, the effect site concentration was increased by a rate of 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, or 0.9 [mu]g [middle dot] ml-1 [middle dot] min-1. The Bispectral Index and ARM were recorded at frequent intervals. The times of syringe drop and loss and recovery of responsiveness were noted. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic modeling was performed using NONMEM.
Results: When the correct rate of plasma-effect site equilibration was determined for each individual (plasma-effect site equilibration = 0.17 min-1, time to peak effect = 2.7 min), the effect site concentrations associated with each clinical measure were not affected by the rate of increase of effect site propofol concentration. ARM correlated with all clinical measures of drug effect. Subjects invariably stopped responding to ARM at lower effect site propofol concentrations than those associated with loss of responsiveness. 相似文献
