Cystic Fibrosis

Brief summary

The proposed study is designed to characterize the pharmacokinetics of intravenous and oral tedizolid in patients with Cystic Fibrosis.

Detailed description

Recent epidemiological studies have demonstrated that the presence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in the airways of patients with CF is associated with more rapid lung function decline and a higher mortality. Tedizolid is a new antibiotic with potent activity against MRSA. Tedizolid is currently FDA approved for treatment of skin soft tissue infections with MRSA. The proposed study is designed to characterize the pharmacokinetics of intravenous and oral tedizolid in patients with CF.

Interventions

DRUGTedizolid PO

Participants will be randomized to receive tedizolid oral 200mg once daily for 3 days and crossed over to IV after a 1 week washout.

DRUGTedizolid IV

Participants will be randomized to receive tedizolid IV 200mg once daily for 3 days and crossed over to PO after a 1 week washout.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Peak Plasma Concentration (Cmax)2 daysCmax was calculated using data collected at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48 hours post-dose
Area Under the Plasma Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC)2 daysArea under the curve was calculated using samples collected at baseline (0 h) , 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, and 48 hours post-dose and using the equation AUC=Dose\*F/CL
Time to Peak Plasma Concentration (Tmax)2 daysTmax was calculated using data collected at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48 hours post-dose
Peak Sputum Concentration2 daysPeak sputum concentration was calculated using data collected at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48 hours post-dose.
Area Under the Sputum Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC)2 daysAUC was calculated using data collected at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48 hours post-dose
Time to Peak Sputum Concentration (Tmax)2 daysTmax was calculated using data collected at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 24, 48 hours post-dose. Tmax was derived from pooled sputum data due to sparse samples and therefore do not have standard deviations.
