A Phase 1 Study to Evaluate the Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Cabotegravir in Patients With Hepatic Impairment and Healthy Matched Controls.
Clinical Pharmacology in Drug Development 2019 Februrary 28
Cabotegravir is an investigational integrase inhibitor in development for the treatment and pre-exposure prophylaxis of HIV-1 infection. Liver disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in HIV-infected individuals and can impact the pharmacokinetics (PK) of HIV medications. This phase 1 study evaluated the PK of cabotegravir in individuals with moderate hepatic impairment (n = 8) versus healthy controls (n = 8). Participants received a single oral cabotegravir 30-mg tablet and underwent PK sampling to determine total and unbound plasma cabotegravir concentrations. Calculated geometric least-squares mean ratios (90% confidence intervals) for individuals with hepatic impairment versus healthy controls were 0.73 (0.50-1.06) for AUC0-∞ , 0.69 (0.51-0.93) for Cmax , 1.40 (0.80-2.46) for unbound concentration (CU) 2 hours postdose, 1.55 (0.82-2.94) for CU at 24 hours, 2.14 (1.57-2.90) for unbound fraction (FU) at 2 hours, and 1.90 (1.14-3.18) for FU at 24 hours. Adverse events (AEs) occurred in 2 individuals with hepatic impairment and 3 healthy controls and were grade 1/2 in severity. No participant discontinued because of AEs. Increased FU resulted in a modest decrease in total plasma exposure not considered clinically relevant. We conclude that cabotegravir may be administered without dose adjustment in patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment.
