Prediction of steady state bioequivalence relationships using single dose data II-nonlinear kinetics

Two nonlinear pharmacokinetic models were simulated to investigate the relationship between single and multiple dose bioequivalency parameters for drugs such as phenytoin and propranolol which exhibit either saturable elimination kinetics or a capacity limited first pass effect. Mean Tmax, Cmax and area under the plasma-concentration time curve values from 0 to infinity (AUC 0-infinity) were compared after a single and multiple dose(s) of a test or reference drug. The aim was to determine if there were systematic changes in the limits of the single dose confidence interval at steady state that would limit the usefulness of confidence intervals following a single dose in accurately predicting bioavailability following multiple dosing. The 90 per cent confidence interval expressed as a percentage of the reference mean for Tmax, Cmax, and AUC 0-infinity showed model dependent changes from single to multiple dosing in response to the level of data error and changes in absorption. Changes in clearance also seemed to have a marked effect on the observed limits of the single and multiple dose confidence intervals especially for Cmax which showed a characteristic change in the intervals as a function of the clearance ratio. The model used to describe phenytoin had confidence intervals for Cmax and AUC 0-infinity from single to multiple dosing that were similar to that seen for the experimental data. However, the model predictions for Tmax confidence intervals following single and multiple dosing was at variance with the experimental data for formulations A and B.

On the Role of Proteasomes in Cell Biology and Proteasome Inhibition as a Novel Frontier in the Development of Immunosuppressants

The proteasome, a large protease complex in cells, is the major machinery for protein degradation. It was previously considered a humble garbage collector, performing housekeeping duties to remove misfolded or spent proteins. Until recently, the interests of immunologists in proteasomes were focused largely on its role in antigen processing. Its real importance in cell biology has only been revealed contemporarily due to the availability of relatively specific inhibitors. It has now become increasingly clear that many aspects of immune responses highly depend on proper proteasome activity. Recently, a proteasome inhibitor has been successfully used to prevent acute as well as ongoing heart allograft rejection in mice. Such inhibitors are also efficacious in treating several autoimmune diseases, such as arthritis, psoriasis, and probably type I diabetes, in animal models. Phase II and III clinical trials of proteasome inhibitors in treating various tumors have shown promising results, and the side-effects of these drugs are tolerable. Therefore, proteasome inhibition represents a new and promising frontier in immunosuppressant development.     

Prediction of steady-state bioequivalence relationships using single dose data I-linear kinetics

Simulated data using a linear one- and two-compartment body model with different absorption characteristics were used to evaluate the ability of single dose bioavailability data to predict the relationships that exist at steady state. This was done by comparing the confidence intervals obtained from single and multiple dose data sets for the parameters of Tmax, Cmax, and area under the curve from time zero to infinity (AUC0-infinity). As a consequence of Tmax and Cmax decreasing and increasing from single to multiple dosing regimens, the confidence intervals for these parameters reflected these changes. The 90 per cent confidence interval expressed as a percentage of the reference mean increased or decreased for Tmax dependent upon the ratio of Ka test/Ka reference, and decreased for Cmax while the interval for AUC0-infinity exhibited no predictable pattern and appeared to be influenced by the amount of error in the data set. Alteration of either the dosing interval or the fraction absorbed did not affect the pattern of change in the confidence intervals for Tmax and Cmax, but the latter did result in a decrease in the interval for AUC0-infinity. Analysis of the confidence intervals for Tmax, Cmax and AUC0-infinity in bioequivalency studies for quinidine gluconate and procainamide hydrochloride following administration of single and multiple doses to different subjects appeared to be consistent with the patterns observed for the simulated data sets.
