Abstract

Intracellular exposure of everolimus may be a better marker of therapeutic effect than trough whole blood concentrations. We aimed to develop pharmacokinetic population models and Bayesian estimators based on a limited sampling strategy for estimation of dose interval exposures of everolimus in whole blood and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in renal transplant recipients. Full whole blood and PBMC concentration-time profiles of everolimus were obtained from 12 stable renal transplant recipients on two different occasions, 4 weeks apart. The dataset was treated as 24 individual profiles and split into a development dataset (n = 20) and a validation dataset (n = 4). The pharmacokinetic model was developed using non-parametric modeling and its performances and those of the derived Bayesian estimator were evaluated in the validation set. A structural two-compartment model with first-order elimination and two absorption phases described by a sum of two gamma distributions were developed. None of the tested covariates (age, sex, albumin, hematocrit, fat-free mass and genetic variants such as CYP3A5*1, ABCB1 haplotype, PPARA*42, PPARA*48, and POR*28) were retained in the final model. A limited sampling schedule of two whole blood samples at 0 and 1.5 h and one PBMC sample at 1.5 h post dose provided accurate estimates of the area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) in comparison with the trapezoidal reference AUC (relative bias ± standard deviation = - 3.9 ± 10.6 and 4.1 ± 12.3% for whole blood and PBMC concentrations, respectively). The developed model allows simultaneous and accurate prediction of everolimus exposure in whole blood and PBMCs, and supplies a base for a feasible exploration of the relationships between intracellular exposure and therapeutic effects in prospective trials.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 04 May 2018.
All research outputs
#13,592,375
of 23,043,346 outputs
Outputs from Clinical Pharmacokinetics
#1,105
of 1,495 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#172,240
of 332,302 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Clinical Pharmacokinetics
#18
of 26 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,043,346 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 39th percentile – i.e., 39% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,495 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.6. This one is in the 25th percentile – i.e., 25% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 332,302 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 46th percentile – i.e., 46% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 26 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 26th percentile – i.e., 26% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
