Abstract

This prospective study aimed to develop a population pharmacokinetics (PK) model of hydroxyurea (HU) in patients with sickle cell disease. This model can be used to determine the impact of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) on HU kinetics. We included 30 patients. They underwent HU pharmacokinetics analyses of plasma and urine. Six underwent PK analyses in 2 periods with and without angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor. HU was assayed with a validated high-performance liquid chromatography-UV method. Noncompartmental PK analysis was conducted and a population PK model built with Monolix. This model was validated externally on another 56 patients. HU PK was simulated as a function of GFR. The HU PK model was constructed as a 2-compartment model with first-order absorption and elimination. The quality criteria were good, including for external validation. We found that estimated GFR (eGFR) and body weight affected HU PK, with lower eGFR or body weight associated with a higher HU area under the curve. We recommend the monitoring of HU through eGFR and body weight, which together account for 47% of its variability. Urinary HU fractions and renal clearance were higher in the glomerular hyperfiltration group and lower in the moderat...Continue Reading

Anemia

Anemia develops when your blood lacks enough healthy red blood cells. Anemia of inflammation (AI, also called anemia of chronic disease) is a common, typically normocytic, normochromic anemia that is caused by an underlying inflammatory disease. Here is the latest research on anemia.

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
