Clinical Pharmacology of Antiretrovirals for HIV Prevention: Implications for PrEP Efficacy and

Adherence

Craig W. Hendrix, MDJohns Hopkins University School of Medicine

Page 2: Clinical Pharmacology of Antiretrovirals for HIV Prevention

Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis o PrEP – prophylaxis for HIV susceptibleo Prevention control to receptive partnero PMTCT precedent supported by animal modelso 1996-2009, 6 RCT luminally active vaginal gels failedo 2010-2012, 6 RCT oral (TFV+FTC) & topical (TFV)

n Efficacy demonstrated, but highly variable results

o 2012 FDA market approval for TDF/FTC (Truvada)n Combination with safer sex practicesn Adults (men & women) at high risk of HIV infectionn Single oral daily dosen Label emphasizes importance of adherence

o RCTs alone leave many unanswered questions

Page 3: Clinical Pharmacology of Antiretrovirals for HIV Prevention

OutlineClinical pharmacology studies inform…o …concentration-response relationship (target?)

o …how many doses before protection?

o …colon tissue “advantage”?

o …topical dosing advantage?

o …adherence source of study variability?

o …limitation of adherence estimates?

o …EMS and PK combination usefulness?

n Identify concentration targetn Informs dose & frequencyn Identify site of action (?)n Poor concentration-response

Variable Patterns of Adherence

Blaschke, et al. Ann Rev Pharm Tox 2012

o “90% Adherence” takes many forms

o All PK matrices “average” in holidaysn Insensitive to holidays v. regular pattern

Page 26: Clinical Pharmacology of Antiretrovirals for HIV Prevention

Electronic Event Monitoring SystemsMEMSCAP (micro-electromechanical systems)

Page 27: Clinical Pharmacology of Antiretrovirals for HIV Prevention

Understanding Concentration-ResponseOptimal: Combining EMS & PKIND

o Adherence patterns varyo Drug exposure varies widelyo Some patterns more

permissive than otherso “On average” adherence

analyses may mislead regarding targets

o Need event monitoring for both drug and sexual exposure (Yc).

o EMS+Sparse PKIND samplingenables simulation of concentration for entire studyn Powerful for understanding concentration-response (inform regimen)n Enables clinical trial simulation to optimize future RCT study designs

Blaschke, et al. Ann Rev Pharm Tox 2012

Page 28: Clinical Pharmacology of Antiretrovirals for HIV Prevention

SummaryClinical pharmacology studies inform…

o …concentration-response relationship (target)

o …multiple oral doses before protection

o …colon tissue “advantage” falls with dose frequency

o …topical dosing tissue advantage dose per dose

o …adherence greatest source of study variability

o …RCT adherence rates “on average”, miss holidays

o …EMS and PK combination needed

PK-based adherence interventiono “Study X”: 3 product, 8 week per product, cross-over studyo 4 & 8 week plasma “real time” for drug concentrationo How do I select Yes/No PK result to inform adherence counseling?

o “Non-Adherence” (below limit quantitation - pink) varies with routeo Equivalent adherence - oral 10 ng/mL c/w topical 0.3 ng/mLo PBMC, hair, DBS – insensitive +/or Tss too long with 8 week/product

How does clinical pharmacology inform?

o Concentration-responsen Target concentration?n Target location?n Rational dosing

o Explain variable response among populations?o Adherence assessmentn Post hoc Interpretation of RCT outcomes?n Real-time study intervention?
