Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and effects of imatinib on myelopoiesis in adults when given with and without isoniazid and rifabutin. The results of this trial will determine the imatinib dose to be studied in a subsequent Phase IIB treatment trial of imatinib as an adjunctive therapy with an antimicrobial regimen (rifabutin, pyrazinamide (PZA), isoniazid (INH) and ethambutol) for drug-sensitive TB.
Detailed description
With existing anti-tubercular drug therapies, treatment of drug-susceptible TB takes at least 6 months and success rates for multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and extensively drug resistant TB (XDR-TB) are a dismal 50 and 20%, respectively, highlighting the urgent need for new TB drugs. The cancer drug imatinib limits mycobacterial infections in culture and animal models by reducing both entry into macrophages and augmenting phagolysosomal fusion (autophagy), which may facilitate antigen presentation and pathogen killing. Additionally, imatinib induces increases in myeloid cells (myelopoiesis), and an innate immune response to infection that mimics so-called emergency hematopoiesis, a response that Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) appears to suppress. Importantly, these mechanisms can be induced in animal models by oral doses substantially lower than those used in people to combat cancer. The dose-dependence has important implications for TB clinical studies in humans, as it suggests that imatinib could improve TB treatment using doses that impart minimal, if any, toxicity. This study will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and effects of imatinib on myelopoiesis in adults when given with and without isoniazid and rifabutin (antibiotics to treat mycobacterial infections). Participants will be enrolled into one of two cohorts. In Cohort 1, participants will be enrolled in a dose-escalating fashion to receive one of four doses of imatinib alone for 14 days, followed by imatinib in combination with rifabutin and isoniazid for another 14 days. In Cohort 2, participants will receive rifabutin and isoniazid for 14 days, followed by 14 days of rifabutin and isoniazid in combination with one of the two selected doses of imatinib. The exact doses of imatinib administered in Cohort 2 will be determined after analyzing data from Cohort 1. After safety evaluations of participants enrolled into the first two dose levels of Cohort 1, the intervention of imatinib followed by imatinib in combination with rifabutin and isoniazid was discontinued. The study protocol was amended to evaluate the effects of imatinib alone, at 3 escalating doses. Total study duration for participants will be 50 days, during which time participants will attend several study visits. Study visits may include a physical exam, electrocardiogram, blood and urine collection, and pharmacokinetic assessments.

Area Under the Curve (AUC) for Imatinib
Blood samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) analyses of imatinib were collected at 6 time points over approximately 24 hours. Samples collection occurred at hour 0 (pre-dose), and 0.5 hours, 2 hours, 4.0 hours, 8.0 hours, and 24 hours post-dose. PK samples were taken after 14 days of imatinib alone (all study arms) and after 14 days of imatinib with rifabutin and isoniazid (Cohorts 1a and 1b). The PK parameter AUC is the overall exposure to imatinib.
Time frame: Day 14, Day 28
Population: The analysis population includes those who were participating in the study at the indicated time point. Participants in the Imatinib (100 mg) group, who received imatinib alone, had a single PK analysis.

Elimination Rate Constant (Ke) of Imatinib
Blood samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) analyses of imatinib were collected at 6 time points over approximately 24 hours. Samples collection occurred at hour 0 (pre-dose), and 0.5 hours, 2 hours, 4.0 hours, 8.0 hours, and 24 hours post-dose. PK samples were taken after 14 days of imatinib alone (all study arms) and after 14 days of imatinib with rifabutin and isoniazid (Cohorts 1a and 1b). The elimination rate constant is the rate that imatinib is removed from the body.
Time frame: Day 14, Day 28
Population: The analysis population includes those who were participating in the study at the indicated time point. Participants in the Imatinib (100 mg) group, who received imatinib alone, had a single PK analysis.
