Due to high inter-individual variability in peripheral pharmacokinetic parameters, dosing of antipsychotics currently relies on clinical trial-and-error, and predicting antipsychotic plasma concentrations before changing a dose has been a challenge.
Patients with schizophrenia receiving a stable dose of olanzapine were included. 2 plasma samples were collected at 2 given time points for the measurement of plasma olanzapine concentrations. At least 7 days after a dosage change of olanzapine, a third sample was collected. The plasma concentration of the third sample was predicted in a blinded fashion using a mixed-effects model with NONMEM(®), using the following information: the 2 baseline plasma concentrations, the interval between the last dose and blood draw, and clinical and demographic information.
31 subjects (mean±SD age=56.0±11.6; 19 men) were enrolled. The mean prediction (95% confidence interval) errors were 1.6 (-2.8 to 6.0) ng/mL. A highly significant correlation was observed between the observed and predicted concentrations of the third sample (r=0.91, p<0.001).
Plasma olanzapine concentrations following an actual dosage change can be predicted in advance with a high degree of certainty.
由于外周药代动力学参数存在高度个体间变异性,目前抗精神病药物的给药依赖于临床试验和试错法,并且在改变剂量之前预测抗精神病药物的血浆浓度一直是一项挑战。
纳入接受稳定剂量奥氮平治疗的精神分裂症患者。在两个给定时间点采集两份血浆样本以测量血浆奥氮平浓度。在奥氮平剂量改变至少7天后,采集第三份样本。使用NONMEM®的混合效应模型,以盲法预测第三份样本的血浆浓度,使用以下信息:两份基线血浆浓度、最后一剂与采血之间的时间间隔以及临床和人口统计学信息。
共纳入31名受试者(平均±标准差年龄=56.0±11.6;19名男性)。平均预测(95%置信区间)误差为1.6(-2.8至6.0)ng/mL。观察到第三份样本的观察浓度与预测浓度之间存在高度显著相关性(r=0.91,p<0.001)。
实际剂量改变后的血浆奥氮平浓度可以高度确定地提前预测。
