Pharmacokinetics of nateglinide in renally impaired diabetic patients.
Journal of Clinical Pharmacology 2003 Februrary
Treatment of hyperglycemia in patients with diabetes mellitus and renal insufficiency is complicated by altered pharmacokinetics of hypoglycemic agents. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetic profile and safety of nateglinide, an amino acid derivative that improves early phase insulin secretion and reduces mealtime glucose excursions. This open-label, single-dose, two-center study included patients (mean age = 57 +/- 10 years) with type 1 or 2 diabetes with impaired renal function (IRF) (n = 10) or with renal failure undergoing hemodialysis (n = 10). Both groups were compared with age-, sex-, height-, and weight-matched healthy controls (n = 20). All participants received a single 120-mg dose of nateglinide immediately before breakfast. Pharmacokinetic and safety evaluations were undertaken up to 48 hours postdose. All 40 subjects completed the study. Plasma nateglinide concentrations increased rapidly in patients undergoing dialysis and matched healthy subjects (tmax = 0.95 vs. 0.78 h, respectively) and was comparable with patients with IRF and matched healthy subjects (tmax = 0.80 vs. 0.65 h, respectively). There were no statistically significant differences for Cmax or AUC0-t between the groups. Nateglinide was eliminated rapidly in all groups (t1/2 = 1.9-2.8 h). There was no correlation between the level of renal function and systemic exposure. There was a low extent of renal excretion of nateglinide in healthy subjects (11%) and diabetic patients with IRF (3%). Nateglinide was well tolerated. These data suggest that nateglinide is suitable for use in diabetic patients with IRF or with renal failure undergoing dialysis. Given the comparable absorption and elimination profiles of nateglinide in renally impaired and healthy subjects, no dose adjustment appears necessary in the renally impaired.
