Purpose
The pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic characteristics of levornidazole were studied in patients with intra-abdominal anaerobic infection to provide the rationale of new clinical dosing regimen of levornidazole.Methods
A single-center, open, multidose trial was conducted in 16 patients with intra-abdominal anaerobic infection. Patients received levornidazole at 500mg q12h by intravenous infusion for 3 to 7days. The plasma samples collected before and after the last dose were analyzed by the LC-MS/MS method to determine the concentration of levornidazole. The PK parameters of levornidazole were calculated, and the PK profiles of levornidazole after the dosing regimen of 750mg q24h for 7days were simulated based on the linear PK profile of levornidazole. Monte Carlo simulation was used for estimating the cumulative fraction of response and probability of target attainment (PTA) of both dosing regimens at steady-state against Bacteroides fragilis.Findings
After administration of the last dose of 500mg of levornidazole, the mean (SD) Cmax_ss, AUC0-12, and t1/2 of levornidazole were 24.0 (5.37) μg/mL, 176.59 (29.22) μg·h/mL, and 11.03 (1.34) hours, respectively. The mean (SD) CLss and Vss of levornidazole were 2.90 (0.47) L/h and 45.90 (7.44) L, respectively. The mean (SD) distribution volume of central compartment (V1) and distribution volume of peripheral compartment (V2) were 26.71 (8.51) L and 19.21 (10.86) L, respectively. On the basis of simulation, the accumulation ratio of levornidazole in the 750mg q24h dosing regimen was 30.2% lower than the value in the 500mg q12h dosing regimen. Forthe 2 dosing regimens, the Cmax_ss, AUC0–τ, AUC0–∞, CLss, and Vss did not produce a significant difference between patients and healthy volunteers (P > 0.05). The cumulative fraction of response of levornidazole against B fragilis was >90%, and the probability of target attainment after both dosing regimens was >90%, when the MIC was ≤1 μg/mL.Implications
No significant differences were found in the PK profiles of levornidazole at steady state between the patients with intra-abdominal anaerobic infection and healthy volunteers. The clinical conventional 750mg q24h regimen can achieve similar clinical and microbiological efficacies against anaerobic in the patients after the 500mg q12h regimen. 相似文献2.

Purpose
Ertugliflozin, an oral, highly selective inhibitor of the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2, is approved in the United States and the European Union for the treatment of adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Hepatic impairment may affect, to varying degrees, the absorption, metabolism, and excretion of drugs and may be associated with a lower plasma protein binding compared with that in healthy individuals. This study was conducted to assess the effect of hepatic impairment on the pharmacokinetic (PK), safety, and tolerability profiles of ertugliflozin after administration of a single, 15-mg oral dose.Methods
This was a Phase I, open-label, single-dose study in healthy individuals (n?=?8) and those with moderate hepatic impairment (n?=?8). Eligible participants were men or women aged 18 to 75years with a body mass index of 18.0 to 40.5 kg/m2. Healthy individuals had normal hepatic function; patients with hepatic impairment had a Child-Pugh score of 7 to 9 points (moderate hepatic impairment). Blood samples were collected before dosing and during 96hours after dosing for evaluation of PK parameters. Adverse events were monitored throughout the study.Findings
The adjusted least squares geometric meanratios for total ertugliflozin AUC0–∞ and Cmax inpatients with moderate hepatic impairment comparedwith healthy individuals were 87.4% (90% CI, 68.1%–112.2%) and 78.7% (90% CI, 65.7%–94.2%), respectively. The AUC0–∞ and Cmax for unbound ertugliflozin were also similar between patients with moderate hepatic impairment and healthy individuals. Mean half-life estimates for ertugliflozin were similar (14.6vs 13.8 hours) in patients with moderate hepatic impairment and healthy individuals. The number of participants with all-causality treatment-emergent adverse events was similar for both groups (2 of 8 patients with moderate hepatic impairment and 3 of 8 healthy individuals).Implications
Moderate hepatic impairment had no clinically relevant effect on the PK and safety profiles of ertugliflozin. The results of this study support a recommendation for no dose adjustment of ertugliflozin in patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment. Ertugliflozin was well tolerated when administered tohealthy individuals and patients with moderate hepatic impairment. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02115347. 相似文献3.
Purpose
The pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of many drugs are altered as a consequence of the pathophysiological changes associated with critical illness. The critically ill population presents challenges when titrating infusions of sedatives and analgesics to maintain optimal sedation and pain levels. This systematic review examined the PK data in critically ill adult patients with prolonged infusions (>24 hours) of commonly used sedatives and analgesics to highlight possible altered PK parameters compared with noncritically ill patients.Methods
A literature search of PK studies was performed by using MEDLINE (1946–December 2017) and EMBASE (1910–December 2017); we identified further studies by citation tracking (Web of Science) and checked references of retrieved studies and review articles. All studies were included that were published in English, Chinese, or German; conducted in critically ill adult patients receiving lorazepam, midazolam, propofol, dexmedetomidine, sufentanil, alfentanil, remifentanil, morphine, or fentanyl infusion for ≥24 hours; and reported PK parameters. When appropriate, we conducted a meta-analysis on volume of distribution at steady state (Vdss) (liters), clearance (Cl) (liters per hour), and elimination t1/2 (hours) by using a DerSimonian-Laird random effects model to estimate the summary mean and 95% CIs. Results were compared with commonly reported PK ranges in 70-kg noncritically ill patients.Findings
Thirty-three randomized controlled trials and prospective cohort studies were identified involving 1803 adult critically ill patients with 35 drug treatment arms: fifteen midazolam (n?=?906) studies, three dexmedetomidine (n?=?561), nine propofol (n?=?165), four lorazepam (n?=?86), one morphine (n?=?20), two remifentanil (n?=?55), and one sufentanil (n?=?10). Each study showed large variations in Vdss, Cl, and elimination t1/2 within and between individual participants. High clinical and methodical heterogeneity between the dexmedetomidine studies prevented the direct comparison of PK parameters between critically ill and noncritically ill patients. Use of midazolam, propofol, and lorazepam in critically ill patients was associated with at least a 2- to 4-fold increase in Vdss compared with noncritically ill patients; Cl decreased ～2-fold for midazolam and 10-fold for morphine. Critically ill patients receiving prolonged infusions of midazolam, propofol, remifentanil, and sufentanil had at least 2-fold longer elimination or terminal t1/2 than noncritically ill patients.Implications
These findings show a marked difference in many PK parameters from those reported for noncritically ill patients. Initiatives to improve the delivery of prolonged sedatives and analgesic infusions should be informed by PK parameters (Vdss, context-sensitive t1/2, and elimination t1/2) and data derived from critically ill patients. 相似文献4.

Purpose
Novel therapies to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are highly desirable. The safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of nemiralisib, a phosphoinositide 3-kinase δ inhibitor, administered via the Ellipta dry powder inhaler (GlaxoSmithKline, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina) was evaluated, including an assessment of oral bioavailability.Methods
This single-center, 3-part, placebo-controlled trial in 22 healthy subjects evaluated single (100 and 200 μg) and repeat (200 μg for 10 days) doses of inhaled nemiralisib in parts A (n?=?12) and B (n?=?12) (double-blind) and single doses of inhaled nemiralisib (200 µg) with and without charcoal block in Part C (n?=?6) (open-label, 2-period, crossover). There was a minimum 14-day washout period between dosing days.Findings
21 subjects completed the study, mean age was similar in the three parts (A: 49 years; B: 44 years; C: 55 years). After single doses of nemiralisib, observed plasma Cmax dropped rapidly, followed by a slower elimination phase. Near-dose proportionality was observed: mean (95% CI) plasma Cmax and AUC0–24 values were 174.3 pg/mL (96.9–313.3) and 694.6 pg·h/mL (503.5–958.2) for 100 μg and 398.9 pg/mL (318.3–500.1) and 1699.6 pg·h/mL (1273.3–2268.7) for 200 μg, respectively. Repeat dosing for 10 days showed exposures ～2- to 4-fold higher than on the single dose (peak, trough, and AUC0–24 levels), achieving steady-state by day 6. Mean AUC0–24 was 2193.6 pg·h/mL and 1645.3 pg·h/mL in the absence/presence of charcoal. Two non–drug-related adverse events were observed; neither was serious or resulted in withdrawal.Implications
Inhalation of nemiralisib was well tolerated in these healthy subjects. Plasma pharmacokinetic variables were well defined, and charcoal block data indicate that ～23% of the total systemic exposure after inhalation from Ellipta was attributable to orally absorbed drug.

Purpose
Morphine ARER is a novel oral, abuse-deterrent, extended-release (ER) formulation of morphine sulfate with physical and chemical properties that deter misuse and abuse by nonoral routes of administration. Here we evaluate the relative bioavailability of morphine ARER and extended-release morphine.Methods
This single-dose, 2-treatment, 2-period, 2-sequence, randomized crossover study in healthy adult subjects compared the relative bioavailability of morphine ARER 100 mg to that of ER morphine 100 mg in the fasted condition. At 12 and 1.5 hours before dosing and 12 hours after dosing, all subjects received a 50-mg oral naltrexone tablet to minimize opioid-related side effects. Pharmacokinetic parameters including the AUC0–t, AUC0–∞, and Cmax of morphine and its metabolite morphine-6-glucuronide (M6G) were determined at various times up to 48 hours postdose. The bioequivalence of morphine ARER and ER morphine was determined using an ANOVA of the least-squares mean values of morphine and M6G bioavailability.Findings
Forty-nine subjects completed the study. Both morphine ARER and ER morphine exhibited peak plasma morphine and M6G concentrations of ～30 ng/mL and ～200 ng/mL, respectively, at 3 hours postdose. The 90% CIs of the ln-transformed values of morphine AUC0–t, AUC0–∞, and Cmax were within the 80% to 125% range for bioequivalence. M6G values also indicated bioequivalence of morphine ARER and ER morphine. The most common adverse events were nausea and somnolence.Implications
These data show that, in these subjects, morphine ARER was bioequivalent to ER morphine, a treatment for pain with well-established efficacy and safety profiles. 相似文献6.

Purpose
Several antihypertensive medications have been associated with various forms of sexual dysfunction. We present a case report of a premenopausal patient with hydralazine-associated amenorrhea.Methods
The Naranjo adverse drug reaction probability scale was used to assess causality. We also performed a literature search on PubMed to find publications that report hydralazine-associated amenorrhea.Results
The Naranjo scale generated a score of 6, suggesting a probable relationship between amenorrhea and hydralazine therapy. No publications associating hydralazine with amenorrhea were identified.Implications
A probable relationship exists between hydralazine and the development of amenorrhea. 相似文献7.
Background
Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) provide access to cost-effective, high quality care. APRNs are underutilized in states that restrict their practice. Removing restrictions could expand access to quality health care, cost-effectively relieve the physician shortage, and contribute economically.Purpose
This study forecasts the health system and economic impacts of reducing practice restrictions for Florida APRNs.Methods
The analysis utilized a number of data sources and IMPLAN software and estimated changes in APRN supply given less restrictive practice laws, and consequential health system and economic benefits.Findings
Between 2013 and 2025 APRN full time equivalents could increase an additional 11% with less restrictive practice regulations. This could eliminate or reduce the shortage of different types of physicians. Health care cost-savings could be $50 to $493 per resident. There would be a number of general economic benefits.Discussion
A number of health system and economic benefits would ensue from less restrictive APRN regulation. 相似文献8.
Purpose
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza are important viral pathogens worldwide. Children, in particular, bear considerable burdens of morbidity and mortality associated with these viruses. There are limited therapeutic options for children infected with RSV or influenza. This review focuses on therapeutics for RSV and influenza that are currently under clinical investigation.Methods
This study used a systematic approach to identify prospective therapeutics in clinical trials and briefly reviewed those that are currently available for use in adults and children.Findings
Overall, we found 14 investigational drugs currently in clinical trials for RSV and 20 investigation drugs currently in clinical trials for influenza. These candidates range in development from Phase I to Phase III clinical trials.Implications
Both RSV and influenza are targets for active therapeutic research, and promising candidates for both viruses are currently in clinical development. 相似文献9.
Purpose
Hepatitis C, a chronic disease with deadly consequences, is no longer predominantly a disease of older people.Methods
A limited search was conducted of the relevant literature on 2 topics: (1) the impact of hepatitis C on infants exposed by vertical transmission; and (2) the impact of hepatitis C infection on infected children and adolescents. The findings were supplemented by the first-hand experience of the authors.Findings
Young people, including women of childbearing age, infants, children, and adolescents, are being especially affected by hepatitis C infection secondary to the intravenous drug use and opioid epidemic. Unfortunately, estimates of disease in young populations are all misleading because universal screening has not been implemented.Implications
Lack of implementation of policies for screening and therapy on most affected populations will be responsible for perpetuation of this infection. In the era of highly effective therapy and a regimen that is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for children, this outcome is unacceptable. 相似文献10.

Purpose
Imrecoxib is one type of cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor with the capability of reducing the potential cardiovascular risk caused by other NSAIDs. Co-administration with other medications can affect the cytochrome P450 (CYP) 2C9 enzyme function; thus, imrecoxib metabolism can be affected. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the effects of fluconazole, which is known to inhibit CYP2C9, on imrecoxib's pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters.Methods
In this single-center, single-arm, open-label, self-controlled study, 12 healthy Chinese male volunteers (mean [SD] age, 22.6 [2.43] years) received the following 2 treatments separated by a washout period of 8 days under a fasting state: (1) a single oral dose of imrecoxib 100 mg; and (2) fluconazole 200 mg/d over 6 days followed by concurrent dosing of imrecoxib 100 mg and fluconazole 200 mg. Plasma concentrations of imrecoxib (M0) and its metabolites (4′-hydroxymethyl metabolite [M1] and 4′-carboxylic acid metabolite [M2]) for PK analysis were obtained at 0 (baseline) and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours after imrecoxib dosing. Safety and tolerability assessments were performed throughout the study.Findings
All subjects completed the study. There was 1 adverse event; drug-induced liver damage in 1 subject occurred after he received imrecoxib plus fluconazole, and the subject recovered without any sequelae. Coadministration with fluconazole resulted in much higher plasma imrecoxib concentrations, with an increase of 88% in Cmax and 72% in AUC0–t compared with only imrecoxib treatment, which showed that fluconazole may increase plasma exposure to imrecoxib. Fluconazole also caused a small, but not clinically relevant, decrease in M1 and M2 mean Cmax (13% and 14%, respectively), but there was minimal change in M1 and M2 mean AUC0–t (3% and 2%). However, there were no statistically significant differences in vital signs, clinical laboratory test results, ECGs, or adverse events between treatments.Implications
Concurrent administration of imrecoxib and fluconazole did not seem to change imrecoxib's safety profile. The ratio (imrecoxib?+?fluconazole/imrecoxib) for AUC0–t was 1.72 (90% CI, 1.41–2.11) and for Cmax it was 1.88 (90% CI, 1.59–2.21). Hence, it is necessary to adjust the imrecoxib dose when it is concurrently used with other CYP2C9 inhibitors. 相似文献11.

Purpose
Pregabalin and thioctic acid are likely to be used concomitantly for the treatment of painful diabetic neuropathy. In this study, the pharmacokinetic interaction between pregabalin and thioctic acid was investigated at steady state.Methods
A randomized, open-label, 6-sequence, 3-period, 3-treatment crossover study was conducted in 42 healthy male volunteers. The volunteers randomly received pregabalin 300 mg BID for 6 times, thioctic acid 600 mg once daily for 3 times, or the combination of pregabalin and thioctic acid. Serial blood samples were collected up to 24 hours after the last dosing in each period. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by using noncompartmental analysis methods.Findings
The mean concentration–time curves were similar between each drug alone and in combination with the other drug. The 90% CIs of the geometric mean ratios with and without the co-administered drug for Cmax at steady state and AUC during the dosing interval were well within the conventional bioequivalence range of 0.8 to 1.25, except for Cmax at steady state for thioctic acid, which barely exceeded only the lower bound (0.78–1.15). Co-administered pregabalin and thioctic acid was well tolerated.Implications
Repeatedly administered pregabalin and thioctic acid do not interact pharmacokinetically. This study suggests that the combination of pregabalin and thioctic acid can safely be administered concomitantly without dose adjustment. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01808300. 相似文献12.

Purpose
The purpose of this study was to investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic profile of sofosbuvir and its metabolites after a single dose of sofosbuvir 400mg and once daily dosing of sofosbuvir 400mg for 7days in healthy Chinese subjects.Methods
This Phase I, open-label, single- and multiple-dose study enrolled 14 Chinese subjects aged 18 to 45years with an approximately even distribution of healthy male (n?=?9) and nonpregnant, nonlactating female subjects (n?=?5). Subjects received a single oral dose of sofosbuvir 400mg (one tablet) (morning, fasted conditions; single-dose treatment). After a 3-day washout, subjects received oral sofosbuvir 400mg (one tablet) (morning, fasted) for 7days (multiple dose treatment).Findings
No significant accumulation of sofosbuvir, GS-566500, or GS-331007 was observed. Steady state of the major metabolite GS-331007 was achieved after 4days of consecutive dosing with sofosbuvir 400mg once daily. Sofosbuvir was generally well tolerated.Implications
Overall, this study supports the further evaluation of sofosbuvir 400mg in the Chinese population. The pharmacokinetic properties of sofosbuvir, GS-556500, and GS-311007 were found to be broadly similar in healthy Chinese subjects compared with non-Chinese subjects in previous sofosbuvir studies.

Background
Pragmatic dissemination and implementation (D&I) research approaches can benefit patient care because they emphasize real-world settings and populations. Nurse scientists have an opportunity to reduce the gap between science and practice by using pragmatic D&I research and sustainability strategies.Purpose
This article discusses pragmatic models, methods, and measures used in D&I research and their relevance for nursing research and enhancing population health.Methods
Summary of pragmatic D&I models and related methods for designing a pragmatic studies. We discuss the RE-AIM framework and the PRECIS-2 planning aid and figure in detail. A case study is provided and application to nursing research is discussed.Discussion
Successful translation of pragmatic D&I research demands an approach that addresses external validity, and customization at multiple levels including the patient, clinician, and setting. Context is critically important, and it is never too early to design for dissemination.Conclusions
Pragmatic D&I approaches are needed to speed research translation, reduce avoidable waste of funding, improve clinical care, and enhance population health. Pragmatic D&I research is an area of tremendous opportunity for the nursing science community. 相似文献15.
Background
Nurses are among the many U.S. health professionals engaged in international learning or service experiences and often travel to low-resource countries lacking guidance for ethical practice, respect for host partners, or collaborative work in different health systems.Purpose
The aim of this study is to develop evidence-based principles or guidelines for ethical global health nursing practice.Methods
A three-round Delphi study was conducted. Global health nurse experts participated in Round 1 focus group, followed by nurses with global health expertise ranking global health nursing statements in Rounds 2 and 3.Discussion
Findings led to 10 Ethical Principles for Global Health Nursing Practice and 30 statements for Ethical Guidelines in Global Health Nursing. These Ten principles address beneficence, nonmaleficence, dignity, respect, autonomy, social justice, and professional practice. The 30 guidelines offer more specific actions nurses must consider when working in global settings. 相似文献16.

Purpose
Infection with hepatitis C virus is the leading cause of infectious disease mortality in the United States. BZF961 is a novel small molecule inhibitor of the hepatitis C virus NS3-4A protease. Here we present the results of a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multicentered study in treatment-naïve patients with chronic hepatitis C virus genotype-1 infection.Methods
Patients were enrolled sequentially in 2 parts and treated for 3days. BZF961 was administered as monotherapy (500mg BID for 3 days) or in combination with the cytochrome P450 3A4 inhibitor ritonavir to boost its exposure (BZF961 10, 20, or 50mg QD or BID).Findings
BZF961 was safe and well tolerated in the patients studied with no serious adverse events. There were no appreciable differences in adverse events among patients who received BZF961, BZF961 with ritonavir, or placebo. There was a significant, clinically meaningful reduction in viral load from baseline in patients treated either with BZF961 500mg every 12hours alone or BZF961 50mg every 12hours in combination with ritonavir. Activity against the hepatitis C virus of the lower-dose regimens was apparent but more modest. There were no relevant changes from baseline viral loads in placebo-treated patients.Implications
Coadministration of ritonavir with BZF961 boosted BZF961 exposure (including Cmin, which is the clinically relevant parameter associated with antiviral activity) in a therapeutic range with less variability compared with BZF961 alone. For strategic reasons, BZF961 is no longer under development. 相似文献17.

Purpose
Oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy has remained an unresolved issue in clinical practice. Our previous study hypothesized that inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) may produce a preventive effect on oxaliplatin-induced neuropathy. The aim of this study was to clarify whether RAS inhibitors prevent oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy.Methods
This study retrospectively analyzed data from cancer patients who had received chemotherapy including oxaliplatin and were treated with or without RAS inhibitors. This retrospective observational study was conducted at Ehime University Hospital using electronic medical records from May 2009 to December 2016. The primary end point was the incidence of severe peripheral neuropathy during or after oxaliplatin treatment, according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 4.0. A multivariate Cox proportional hazards model analysis was used to identify risk factors.Findings
A total of 150 patients were included in the study. The estimated incidence of peripheral neuropathy was 36.9% and 91.7% in the RAS inhibitor group and the non–RAS inhibitor group, respectively. The multivariate analysis using a Cox proportional hazards model showed that the RAS inhibitor group was slightly associated with a decreased risk of neurotoxicity (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.42 [95% CI, 0.18–0.99]; P?=?0.048).Implications
The present findings suggest that RAS inhibitors have the ability to prevent oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy. 相似文献18.

Purpose
The aims of this study were to use real-world treatment results to compare changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) among patients with type 2 diabetes who initiated treatment with dulaglutide or insulin glargine and to determine the proportions of patients with renal impairment who initiate each treatment.Methods
The study used data from the Practice Fusion electronic health records database from October 2013 through June 2017. Adults with type 2 diabetes who initiated dulaglutide or insulin glargine therapy and had multiple recorded serum creatinine and/or HbA1c laboratory test results were included in the study. The dulaglutide cohort (n?=?1222) was matched to the insulin glargine cohort (n?=?13,869) using Mahalanobis distance matching with propensity score calipers. Multivariable analyses of the matched cohorts of individuals with serum creatinine results (n?=?1183 dulaglutide and 1183 insulin glargine) examined the association between intent-to-treat therapy and changes in eGFR. In addition, multivariable analyses were also conducted on a subset of these patients who also had recorded HbA1c tests (n?=?1088 dulaglutide and 1088 insulin glargine) to examine the association between changes in HbA1c during the 1 year postperiod.Findings
Among patients who initiated dulaglutide therapy, only 0.9% of patients had an index eGFR <30 and ≥15 mL/min/1.73 m2 and 0.1% had an index eGFR <15 mL/min/1.73 m2. In contrast, 4.1% of insulin glargine–treated patients had an index eGFR <30 and ≥15 mL/min/1.73 m2 and 1.2% had an index eGFR <15 mL/min/1.73 m2. Compared with patients who initiated therapy with insulin glargine, initiation of dulaglutide therapy was associated with a significantly smaller decrease in eGFR (?0.4 vs ?0.9 mL/min/1.73 m2; P?=?0.0024), a significantly smaller likelihood of having a 30% or greater reduction in eGFR (3.3% vs 4.1%; P < 0.0001), and a significantly larger reduction in HbA1c (?0.5% vs ?0.2%; P < 0.0001).Implications
In clinical practice, the use of dulaglutide was relatively more limited in patients with a higher degree of renal impairment compared with use of insulin glargine. However, initiation of dulaglutide therapy, compared with insulin glargine therapy, was associated with a significantly smaller decrease in eGFR and a larger reduction in HbA1c during the 1 year postperiod. 相似文献19.

Purpose
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a fixed-dose combination of montelukast and levocetirizine in patients with perennial allergic rhinitis with mild to moderate asthma compared with the efficacy and safety of montelukast alone.Methods
This study was a 4-week, randomized, multicenter, double-blind, Phase III trial. After a 1-week placebo run-in period, the subjects were randomized to receive montelukast (10 mg/day, n?=?112) or montelukast (10 mg/day)/levocetirizine (5 mg/day) (n?=?116) treatment for 4 weeks. The primary efficacy end point was mean daytime nasal symptom score. Other efficacy end points included mean nighttime nasal symptom score, mean composite symptom score, overall assessment of allergic rhinitis by both subjects and physicians, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), FEV1/FVC, asthma control test score, and the frequency of rescue medication used during the treatment period.Findings
Of 333 patients screened for this study, 228 eligible patients were randomized to treatment. The mean (SD) age of patients was 43.32 (15.02) years, and two thirds of subjects were female (66.67%). The demographic characteristics were similar between the treatment groups. Compared with the montelukast group, the montelukast/levocetirizine group reported significant reductions in mean daytime nasal symptom score (least squares mean [SE] of combination vs montelukast, –0.98 [0.06] vs –0.81 [0.06]; P?=?0.045). For all other allergic rhinitis efficacy end points, the montelukast/levocetirizine group showed greater improvement than the montelukast group. Similar results were observed in overall assessment scores and in FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC, and asthma control test score changes from baseline for the 2 treatment groups. Montelukast/levocetirizine was well tolerated, and the safety profile was similar to that observed in the montelukast group.Implications
The fixed-dose combination of montelukast and levocetirizine was effective and safe in treating perennial allergic rhinitis in patients with asthma compared with montelukast alone. ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02552667. 相似文献20.
