OBJECTIVES: Peritonitis is a serious complication in patients undergoing automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) that increases morbidity and frequently disqualifies patients from the peritoneal dialysis programme. Ceftazidime/avibactam (CAZ/AVI) is a potential treatment option for APD patients with peritonitis caused by resistant Gram-negative bacteria, but limited data exist on systemic and target-site pharmacokinetics (PK) in patients undergoing APD. This study set out to investigate the PK of CAZ/AVI in plasma and peritoneal dialysate (PDS) of patients undergoing APD.

METHODS: A prospective, open-label PK study was conducted on eight patients undergoing APD. CAZ/AVI was administered as a single intravenous dose of 2 g/0.5 g over 120 minutes. APD cycles were initiated 15 hours after the study drug administration. Dense PDS and plasma sampling was performed for 24 hours after the start of administration. PK parameters were analysed with population PK modelling. Probability of target attainment (PTA) was simulated for different CAZ/AVI doses.

RESULTS: PK profiles of both drugs in plasma and PDS were similar, indicating that the two drugs are well suited for a fixed-dose combination. A two-compartment model best described the PK of both drugs. A single dose of 2 g/0.5 g CAZ/AVI led to concentrations that far exceeded the PK/PD targets of both drugs. In the Monte Carlo simulations, even the lowest dose (750/190 mg CAZ/AVI) achieved a PTA of >90% for MICs up to 8 mg/L (The European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing epidemiological cut-off value for Pseudomonas aeruginosa) in plasma and PDS.

DISCUSSION: On the basis of PTA simulations, a dose of 750/190 mg CAZ/AVI would be sufficient to treat plasma and peritoneal fluid infections in patients undergoing APD.
