Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic Modeling of Alpha Interferon Response Induced by a Toll-Like 7 Receptor Agonist in Mice

Abstract: Recombinant alpha interferon (IFN-␣) is used in the treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected patientsbut is not optimal in terms of efficacy or tolerability. Toll-like 7 receptor (TLR-7) agonists stimulate the innate immune system to produce, among other cytokines, IFN-␣ and are being evaluated as alternative drugs to treat HCV infection. This paper describes the application of pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) modeling to understanding the behavior of a TLR-7 agonist [9-benzyl-8-hydroxy-2-(2-methox… Show more

“…For instance, the total area under the curve (AUC 0-∞ ) for oral dosing of imiquimod while fasting was 673±615 ng*h/ml while the AUC 0-∞ for subcutaneous doing of imiquimod was 405±64 ng*h/ml, demonstrating higher intersubject variability in oral administration due to first-pass metabolism [75]. A mouse pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic model can be useful to estimate oral bioavailability, half-life and clearance as well as predict the agonist interaction with receptors [76]. By using the TLR-7 agonist 9-benzyl-8-hydroxy-2-(2-methoxyethoxy) adenine (BHMA), Benson et al .…”

“…By using the TLR-7 agonist 9-benzyl-8-hydroxy-2-(2-methoxyethoxy) adenine (BHMA), Benson et al . discovered that the pharmacokinetics of BHMA followed a two-compartment model with first-order uptake from the GI tract and linear elimination [76]. Immune activation measured by IFN-α production showed peak levels at 1–2 h, and they were able to calculate a degradation constant for IFN-α of 0.96 h −1 and a half-life of 0.7 h, and complete clearance from the plasma was estimated at 3–4 h [76].…”

“…56 In this example, an HCV viral kinetic model was used to predict the antiviral activity of a TLR7 agonist, based on the observed level of stimulation of the IFN system with various dosing regimens of PF-0487691 in animals. Translational pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling facilitated the selection of the first human doses and the estimation of the likely human effective dose.…”

“…Translational pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modeling facilitated the selection of the first human doses and the estimation of the likely human effective dose. 56 Once healthy volunteer data were available, the model was updated with human clinical data and used to support a go/no-go decision with regard to further clinical development. 57 …”
