Patient Studies Modeling Surrogates and Their Linkages: MIC, Clinical Scoring and PK/PD Indices of Effect Alan Forrest, Pharm.D. State University of New York at Buffalo School of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, School of Medicine & Biomedical Science Institute for Clinical Pharmacodynamics Ordway Research Institute; Albany, NY CPL Associates, LLC; Buffalo, NY Overview • Difficulties in studying PK/PD of anti-infectives in humans • PD endpoints, in ID, which might be modelled – Advantages/disadvantages – Current status in drug development – Examples • Proposal to co-model pathogen replication and death, the timecourse of severity of disease manifestation & the effects of drug therapy, on these processes (PD) • Enabling study designs • Summary/Conclusions – Implications, applications – What is needed? Informative PK/PD ID Studies, in Humans, are Difficult • PD models (drug exposure & pathogen susceptibility versus outcome) usually need large numbers of evaluable patients (“100s”) – Adequate PK data usually needed in all (dose-response analyses are too insensitive, would require even larger numbers) – Positive cultures with susceptibilities needed (must consider drug concentrations in relation to the MIC, ED50, etc; concentration-response analyses are also usually too insensitive) – Relevant covariates & outcomes determined & documented • A large range of drug exposures is needed (dose ranging plus PK variability is better than relying on PK variability, alone) • “Placebo effect” (spontaneous resolution) for certain infections such as acute bacterial exacerbation of chronic bronchitis (ABECB) • To model exposure & susceptibility vs probabilities of success & failure, “adequate” numbers of both outcomes are required (& obviously, we usually cannot design for more clinical failures) Candidate PD Endpoints • Probabilities of good & bad events (categorical/ordinal responses) – Examples: mortality, microbiologic or clinical success or failure, yes/no adverse event (AE), emergence of resistance – Most available type of endpoint, in drug development trials, but least sensitive/informative (thus requires the largest sample size, especially with mortality as an endpoint!; “All-cause mortality is the gold standard”) – Accepted definitions generally available, usually largely based on observations made AFTER the course of treatment (eg, TOC visit) – Probability of clinical cure is a “noisier” endpoint than microbiologic cure, but usually has required similar activity breakpoints (eg, AUC/MIC) – Clinical resolution, after two weeks, is “counted” as being equivalent to needing only two days to achieve substantial resolution Candidate PD Endpoints (continued) • Time to good or bad events (interval, AKA ‘survival’ analyses) – Examples: eradication, clinical resolution, resistance, AE – Under-utilized, more difficult to obtain; (much) more informative; probably less sensitive to placebo effect – Time to eradication & resolution is important to patients, their family & clinicians; likely associated with probability of emergent resistance & other AE; may be associated with needed duration of treatment; probably a factor in total costs of the infectious episode – Not yet widely accepted; needs standard definitions & validation • Change in a continuous numeric or ordinal variable (regression) – Examples: pathogen titer (quantitative or semi-), such as viral load; composite disease scores; a lab value sensitive to an AE (eg, a change in creatinine clearance or platelet count) – Least commonly available, but most sensitive/informative type of data – Smallest required sample sizes Ciprofloxacin vs Lower Respiratory Tract Infections Microbiologic Cure 100 100 % probability of micro cure % probability of clinical cure Clinical Cure 80 60 40 20 0 1 2 3 4 80 60 40 20 0 1 Log10 AUC/MIC Forrest A, et al, Antimicrob Agents Chemother.1993. 37:1073–1081 2 3 Log10 AUC/MIC 4 % of patients remaining culture-positive Ciprofloxacin: Time to Negative Cultures vs AUC/MIC 100 75 AUC/MIC < 125, n=21 50 125 < AUC/MIC < 250, n=15 25 AUC/MIC > 250, n=28 0 0 2 4 6 8 10 Days of treatment Forrest A, et al, Antimicrob Agents Chemother.1993. 37:1073–1081. 12 14 Time to Emergence of Resistance Percent Susceptible 100 AUIC >100 (n=97) 80 60 GNR treated with -lactam (n=14) 40 20 0 0 AUIC <100 (n=17) 5 10 15 20 Days From Initiation of Therapy Thomas, et al.

Prospective only?
