Pharmacology:Voriconazole Posaconazole Isavuconazole

Bioavailability >90% (but lower in children) OS: Variable, saturable oral

absorption; food intake, especially

with high fat content, increases oral

bioavailability; gastric acid inhibitors

Especially the class of azole drugs cause interactions

R.J.M. Bruggemann, J.W. Alffenaar, N.M.A Blijlevens, E.M. Billaud, J.G. Kosterink, P.E Verweij; D.M. Burger. Clinical relevance of pharmacokinetic drug interactions with antifungal azole drugsClin Infect Dis. 2009 May 15;48(10):1441-58

Two–way interactions: voriconazole as example

• Effect on voriconazole by:• CYP2C19 inhibition: omeprazole

• CYP3A inhibition: HIV-PIs

• CYP3A / 2C19 inducers: phenytoin, rifampin, St Johns wort

• Effect of voriconazole (inhibition) on:

• CYP3A substrates: tacrolimus, CsA, Ca-antagonist, statins, benzodiazepines,

macrolides, etc.

• CYP2C9 substrates: acenocoumarol, sulfonylureum derivatives, omeprazole,

ibuprofen

• Can lead to:

• Toxicity

• Reduced effectivity

• Difference between oral versus IV• Dose dependent R.J.M. Bruggemann, J.W. Alffenaar, N.M.A Blijlevens, E.M. Billaud, J.G. Kosterink, P.E

Verweij; D.M. Burger. Clinical relevance of pharmacokinetic drug interactions with antifungal azole drugsClin Infect Dis. 2009 May 15;48(10):1441-58

We perform therapeutic drug monitoring to optimize exposure

Case A

• MUMC+ (Maastricht), 65 year old women

• Cerebral aspergillosis (biopsy proven) ; on 200 mg BID voriconazole. • Results voriconazole 0.8 mg/L (target 2.0 mg/L) • - > increase dose to 300 mg BID IV and repeat measurement

• On 300 mg BID again low exposure • -> further increase on 30-06 to 400 mg BID PO

-> adequate concentration (4 mg/L)

• Because we had access we determined drug concentrations in liquor

• Results was 2.0 mg/L (while on 400 mg BID PO )-> average ratio is 0.3 – 0.6 ; now 0.5)

Data with permission from Dr. A. Oude-Lashof, MUMC, Maastricht

Unknow cause of subtherapeutic concentrations

• Patient deteriorates and is again treated with voriconazole IV 400 mg BID

• No interacting drugs

• Contraintuitive: Switch to oral as oral therapy gave good exposure

• Meanwhile: investigate the cause of low concentrations on IV

(reconstitution problems, incompatibilities etc) • Analytical : no mistakes identified• Transport: voriconazole is stable for 14 days at ambient temp

• Drug administration was correct• Sampling appeared correct – no tubes switched• All nursing documentations were very adequate!

Case B

• 12-year old female with ALL (March 2015)

• Disseminated S aureus with large abcesses• Proven invasive pulmonary aspergillosis

• Cerebral leasions (dd aspergillus, S aureus, leukemia?

• First assessment of voriconazole drug concentrations: 0.1 mg/L

• No interacting drugs!• Pediatric patients have more rapid metabolism - causal relation?

Case B

• Increase dose to 16 mg/kg/day IV:

• Trough 0.14 mg/L ; Peak 1.7 mg/L• Clearance? Increased volume of distribution (capillairy leakage)?

• Advice: increase again to 3dd 8mg/kg IV

• Unexplainable low drug concentrations of voriconazole on intravenousdosing

• Check preparation and administration; • Can PF be the cause? Or recently started flucloxaciline?

Interaction between voriconazole and flucloxacillin during treatment of disseminated Scedosporium apiospermum infection. Kennedy B, Larcombe R, Chaptini C, Gordon DL. J Antimicrob Chemother. 2015 Jul;70(7):2171-3.

Flucloxacilline and voriconazole

Hesitation ?

• Flucloxacilline activates Pregnane X receptor upregulation of CYP3A4

and to a lesser extent CYP2C8/9• Same mechanism as reduction in clearance due to inflammation

• Voriconazole is metabolized primarily by CYP2C19 and to a lesser extend CYP2C9 and CYP3A4

Flucloxacilline - voriconazole

• A combination quite often seen in CGD patients

• Likely to occur in patients with H1N1 and both bacterial as well as fungal complications

• 20 patients in the past 2 years in Radboud had this combination

• 10 experienced low or undetectable drug concentrations

• Hypothesis on the cause of the interaction is still under investigation

• In the meanwhile…........? ? • Cephalosporins for S aureus infections?

• Other azole drugs for IAA / IPA ?
