Description

Colistin: Cyclic polypeptide antibiotic from Bacillus colistinus. It is composed of Polymyxins E1 and E2 (or Colistins A, B, and C) which act as detergents on cell membranes. Colistin is less toxic than Polymyxin B, but otherwise similar; the methanesulfonate is used orally. [Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), National Library of Medicine, extracted Dec-2023]

colistin : A multi-component mixture comprising mostly of colistin A (R = Me) and B (R = H), with small amounts of colistin C and other polymyxins, produced by certain strains of Bacillus polymyxa var. colistinus. An antibiotic, it is used as its sulfate salt (for oral or topical use) or as the sodium salt of the N-methylsulfonic acid derivative (the injectable form) in the treatment of severe Gram-negative infections, partiularly those due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Toxicity

Colistin is less effective and more toxic than beta-lactam antibiotics. Serious adverse events (AEs) occurred in 10% of imipenem/relebactam and 31% of colistin+imipenema patients.

Pharmacokinetics

The in vitro pharmacodynamic properties of colistin (sulphate) were investigated by studying the time-kill kinetics and the post-antibiotic effect (PAE) against multidrug-resist strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. An adult physiologically based pharmacokinetic model was developed for meropenem, Colistin, and sulbactam and scaled to pediatrics.

ExcerptReferenceRelevance
" Based on the available data it seems that one may postulate the following conclusions: (1) that the distribution factors as well as changes in drug elimination capacities seem to play a role, perhaps with differing relative importance, during each of the maturational periods; (2) that the physicochemical properties of a drug and its dosage, as well as changes in the volume of distribution in children, in the course of certain disease states may have a significant effect on kinetics of drug disposition in the body; (3) that systemic clearance, a model independent parameter, rather than elimination half-life, a hybrid pharmacokinetic parameter, more accurately reflects elimination of some drugs from the body; (4) that each drug and every clinical situation may require the evaluation of the direct effect on pharmacokinetic processes, since general principles may not always apply; (5) that drug disposition studies should also be performed, if possible, on patients under actual clinical situations and receiving the usual therapeutic regime, and (6) that the half-life of colistin is independent of postnatal age which should serve as a warning not to generalize about drug excretion in the young infant."( Clinical pharmacokinetics of changes in drug elimination in children.

Percentage of Patients With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not it is considered to be drug related. An AE (also referred to as an adverse experience) can be any unfavorable and unintended sign (eg, an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a drug, and it does not imply any judgment about causality. Adverse events also include the exacerbation or worsening of a condition present at screening other than the index infection for which the patient was enrolled in the study. A TEAE is any AE that newly appeared, increased in frequency, or worsened in severity following initiation of study drug. The safety population included all randomized patients who received any amount of study drug. (NCT01970371)

Plasma Pharmacokinetics (PK): Area Under the Curve From 0 to 24 Hours (AUC 0-24h)

PK specimens were collected on Days 1 and 4 using a sparse sampling scheme, and concentration-time data from these PK specimens were pooled with data from specimens collected for TDM. The pooled data were analyzed by population PK modeling, which described PK over the entire course of plazomicin treatment. The protocol allowed dose adjustments based on creatinine clearance; therefore, various dose regimens were used in the study, including regimens with dosing intervals of 12, 24, and 48 hours. To enable a combined summation of exposures across dose regimens, PK exposure parameters for the study were summarized for the first 48 hours of treatment. Thus, while exposures are summarized for the first 48 hours, the reported results considered patient data over the course of plazomicin treatment. (NCT01970371)

Percentage of Patients With Adjudicated Clinical Cure at the Test of Cure (TOC) Visit in the mMITT Population in Cohort 1

"Clinical response (CR) was assessed at end of treatment (EOT) in all patients and at TOC for those who were a clinical cure or had an indeterminate outcome at the most recent visit. Assessment of CR at TOC was not needed for those who were a clinical failure at an earlier visit. Clinical outcomes at both EOT and TOC were independently adjudicated by an external committee. The assessment was confounded by comorbidities and the occurrence of additional infections; thus, adjudicating CR of the baseline CRE infection was influenced by confounding signs and symptoms of unrelated infections or conditions. The difficulty assessing CR supports greater reliance on the more objective mortality-based primary endpoint in these patients.~Note: Although it is generally expected that results for primary and secondary endpoints will be presented for all arms included at baseline, results for Cohort 2 are not presented here as this Cohort was not part of the endpoints per the protocol and SAP."
