Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Simulations of Cost-Effective Dosage Regimens of Ceftolozane-Tazobactam and Ceftazidime-Avibactam in Patients with Renal Impairment

Résumé

The pharmacokinetics of ceftolozane-tazobactam (TOL-TAZ) and ceftazidime-avibactam (CEF-AVI) is influenced by renal function. Application of recommended dosages in patients with renal impairment requires the use of fractions of the full dose, as only one dosage is available for both antibiotics. The objective of this study was to evaluate the adequacy of alternative dosage regimens based on the full dose. We performed pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) simulations of recommended and alternative dosage regimens in patients with various degrees of renal impairment by using the Pmetrics program. Alternative regimens included longer dosage interval and prolonged infusions of the full dose for both drugs. Probabilities of target attainment (PTA) were assessed considering PK/PD targets defined for cephalosporins and beta-lactamase inhibitors as well as MIC breakpoints. The risk of overexposure was also assessed. Results showed that alternative dosage regimens based on a full dose of TOL-TAZ and CEF-AVI administered every 12 or 24 h were associated with PTA similar to that of recommended dosages, especially when administered as prolonged infusion. The alternative dosage regimens were not associated with overexposure in most cases. In addition, those regimens could reduce dosing errors, drug cost, and nurse labor. Clinical investigation ovf those alternative dosage regimens would be required before implementation.
