Population Pharmacokinetics in China: The Dynamics of Intravenous Voriconazole in Critically Ill Patients with Pulmonary Disease
TL;DRAbstract
Pharmacokinetic research in China on the use of voriconazole in critically ill adult patients with different pulmonary diseases remains to be explored. This study evaluated the population pharmacokinetics of the use of voriconazole (VRC) in critically ill patients to determine covariate effects on VRC pharmacokinetics by NONMEM, which could further optimize VRC dosing in this population. A one-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination best fit the data, giving 4.28 L/h clearance and 93.4 L volume of distribution of VRC. The model variability, described as an approximate percentage coefficient of interindividual variability in clearance and volume of distribution, was 72.94% and 26.50%, respectively. A significant association between Cmin and drug response or grade 2 hepatotoxicity was observed (p=0.002, <0.001, respectively, 1.5-4.0 µg/mL) via logistic multivariate regression. Monte Carlo simulations at 100, 150, 200, and 250 mg dosage predicted effectiveness at 45.
