PBPK

• Complex ADME processes: PBPK models account for anatomical, physiological, physical, and chemical mechanisms.

• Multi-compartment approach to account for organs or tissues, with interconnections corresponding to blood, lymph flows and even diffusions.

• Develops a system of differential equations for drug concentration on each compartment as a function of time

• Its parameters represent blood flows, pulmonary ventilation rate, organ volumes etc., for which information is reliable known

CFU Trial Simulations Optimize Design Based on Quantitative Principles

For Predictions the Top-Down Approach is Too Limiting

• Describes existing data, lacks mechanistic insights, limited to explore new scenarios.

Davies GR, et al. Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 2006;50(9):3154-6.

But the Bottom-up Approach is too expansive

• Requires detailed mechanistic understanding, makes models more “portable”, limited by unverifiable assumptions.

Wigginton JE, et al. A model to predict cell-mediated immune regulatory mechanisms during human infection with Mt. J Immunol. 2001;166:1951-67

Intermediate Approach: Mechanistically-Inspired

• Retains key mechanistic verifiable components, allows for parameter estimations and is fit for simulation purposes

Marino S et al. A hybrid multicompartment model for granuloma formation and T-cell priming in TB. J of Theor Bio. 2011:280:50-62

Leverage can be Obtained From Other Areas

• Predator-Prey models in viral infections such as with HCV may provide useful insights for TB modeling and simulation

Guedj J. et al. Understanding HCV dynamics with direct-acting antiviral agents due to interplay between intracellular replication and cellular infection dynamics. J Theor Bio 2010;267:330-40

The Path Forward to a Successful M&S Platform in TB

• Obtain the right datasets to model the dynamics of CFU as a function of drug exposure/dose and disease progression in a mechanistically-inspired setting– Longitudinal data– Different combination therapies– Drug susceptible, MDR and XDR strain data

• Develop model that is predictive of CFU and linked to outcome taking into account appropriate other factors as co-therapy, demographics etc

• Test and validate the model(s) with regulatory buy-in

• Develop tool that can interrogate the model to aid in trial design of compounds under investigation or in development

Regulatory Review Process: What’s success?

Informal discussion with FDA/EMA.

Sponsor submits a letter of intent requesting formal qualification. FDA/EMA Review Team formed.

Sponsor submits briefing document.

F2F meeting between sponsor and FDA/EMA Review Team. Review Team may request additional information.

Sponsor submits full data package. Review process within FDA/EMA begins.

WHAT PREDICTIVE MODELING SHOULD DO

• A DISEASE MODEL AND A MATHEMATICAL MODEL SHOULD GIVE A QUANTITATIVE PREDICTION:

• HOW MUCH RESPONSE?

• WITH WHAT DOSE?

• ACCURACY SHOULD BE JUDGED BASED ON CLINICAL EVENT RATES and NOT another model or CONSESUSS

• ACCURACY SHOULD BE BASED ON HOW ACCURATE CLINICAL PREDICTIONS ARE, NOT ON LACK OF COMPLEXITY OF THE MODELING

HFS, Simulations and Predictions Later on “Validated with CLINICAL Data”

• Efflux pump & cessation of effect of antibiotics• The rapid emergence of quinolone resistance• The potency & ADR of Cipro/Orflox versus Moxi• The “biphasic” effect of quinolones• The exact dose of Rifampin associated with optimal

effect• The population PK variability hypothesis, and the rates

of ADR arising during DOTS• The role of higher doses of pyrazinamide • The “breakpoints” that define drug resistance

PREDICTIONPREDICT:Etymology via Latin:

præ-, "before" dicere, "to say".

“PREDICT” to say BEFORE

QUALITATIVE: Predict an event in terms of whether it occurs

QUANTITATIVE: Predict extent and values prior to the event

If MDR-TB Does Not Arise From Poor Compliance, Why Does It?

• Hypothesis: Perhaps the PK system (i.e., patient’s xenobiotic metabolism) is to blame

• HFS output: kill rates, sterilizing effect rates (i.e., log10 CFU/ml/day)

• Known clinical kill rates, sterilizing effect rates (i.e., log10 CFU/ml/day)

• Performed MCS in 10,000 Western Cape Patients on the FULL REGIMEN

Srivastava S, et al. J. Infect. Dis. 2011; 204:1951-9.

Sputum conversion rate predicted = 56% of patients

Sputum conversion rate from prospective clinical studies in WC= 51-63%

External Validation of Model: Sputum Conversion Rates in 10,000 Patients

Srivastava S, et al. J. Infect. Dis. 2011; 204:1951-9.

• Many (simulated) patients had 1-2 of the 3 drugs at very low concentration throughout, leading to monotherapy of the remaining drug

• Drug resistance predicted to arise in 0.68% of all pts on therapy in first 2 months despite 100% adherence

Srivastava S, et al. J. Infect. Dis. 2011; 204:1951-9.
