Voriconazole (VCZ) metabolism is influenced by many factors. Identifying independent influencing factors helps optimize VCZ dosing regimens and maintain its trough concentration (C) in the therapeutic window. We conducted a prospective study investigating independent factors influencing VCZ C and the VCZ C to VCZ N-oxide concentration ratio (C/C) in younger adults and elderly patients. A stepwise multivariate linear regression model, including the IL-6 inflammatory marker, was used. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive effect of the indicator. A total of 463 VCZ C were analyzed from 304 patients. In younger adult patients, the independent factors that influenced VCZ C were the levels of total bile acid (TBA) and glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (ALT) and the use of proton-pump inhibitors. The independent factors influencing VCZ C/C were IL-6, age, direct bilirubin, and TBA. The TBA level was positively associated with VCZ C ( = 0.176, = 0.019). VCZ C increased significantly when the TBA levels were higher than 10 μmol/L ( = 0.027). ROC curve analysis indicated that when the TBA level ≥4.05 μmol/L, the incidence of a VCZ C greater than 5 μg/ml (95% CI = 0.54-0.74) ( = 0.007) increased. In elderly patients, the influencing factors of VCZ C were DBIL, albumin, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). The independent factors that affected VCZ C/C were eGFR, ALT, γ-glutamyl transferase, TBA, and platelet count. TBA levels showed a positive association with VCZ C ( = 0.204, = 0.006) and C/C ( = 0.342, < 0.001). VCZ C/C increased significantly when TBA levels were greater than 10 μmol/L ( = 0.025). ROC curve analysis indicated that when the TBA level ≥14.55 μmol/L, the incidence of a VCZ C greater than 5 μg/ml (95% CI = 0.52-0.71) ( = 0.048) increased. TBA level may serve as a novel marker for VCZ metabolism. eGFR and platelet count should also be considered when using VCZ, especially in elderly patients.
伏立康唑(VCZ)的代谢受多种因素影响。识别独立影响因素有助于优化VCZ给药方案并将其谷浓度(C)维持在治疗窗内。我们进行了一项前瞻性研究,调查影响年轻成人和老年患者VCZ C以及VCZ C与VCZ N - 氧化物浓度比(C/C)的独立因素。使用了包括IL - 6炎症标志物的逐步多元线性回归模型。采用受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线分析来评估该指标的预测效果。共分析了304例患者的463个VCZ C值。在年轻成年患者中,影响VCZ C的独立因素是总胆汁酸(TBA)水平、谷丙转氨酶(ALT)水平以及质子泵抑制剂的使用。影响VCZ C/C的独立因素是IL - 6、年龄、直接胆红素和TBA。TBA水平与VCZ C呈正相关( = 0.176, = 0.019)。当TBA水平高于10 μmol/L时,VCZ C显著升高( = 0.027)。ROC曲线分析表明,当TBA水平≥4.05 μmol/L时,VCZ C大于5 μg/ml的发生率(95% CI = 0.54 - 0.74)( = 0.007)增加。在老年患者中,VCZ C的影响因素是直接胆红素(DBIL)、白蛋白和估算肾小球滤过率(eGFR)。影响VCZ C/C的独立因素是eGFR、ALT、γ - 谷氨酰转移酶、TBA和血小板计数。TBA水平与VCZ C( = 0.204, = 0.006)和C/C( = 0.342, < 0.001)呈正相关。当TBA水平大于10 μmol/L时,VCZ C/C显著升高( = 0.025)。ROC曲线分析表明,当TBA水平≥14.55 μmol/L时,VCZ C大于5 μg/ml的发生率(95% CI = 0.52 - 0.71)( = 0.048)增加。TBA水平可能作为VCZ代谢的一个新标志物。使用VCZ时还应考虑eGFR和血小板计数,尤其是在老年患者中。
