A Pharmacokinetic Study of Intravenous Itraconazole Followed by Oral Administration of Itraconazole Capsules in Patients with Advanced Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection
Abstract
A randomized, open-label, comparative study was conducted in 30 male patients with moderately advanced human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection to examine the pharmacokinetics of an investigational intravenous preparation of itraconazole compared with pharmacokinetics after administration of itraconazole capsules. The study also assessed whether adequate plasma concentrations of itraconazole could be rapidly achieved with the intravenous formulation and then maintained after cessation of intravenous therapy with itraconazole capsules. All patients received 200 mg intravenous itraconazole as a 1-hour infusion in 40% hydroxypropyl-beta-cyclodextrin (HP-beta-CD) vehicle twice daily for 2 days, and then 200 mg intravenously once daily for 5 days. Patients then received itraconazole capsules, either 200 mg twice daily or 200 mg once daily for 28 days. Steady-state plasma concentrations of itraconazole were reached by day 3 with intravenous infusion, a much shorter time than observed with administration of itraconazole capsules. Steady-state concentrations of itraconazole and hydroxyitraconazole were effectively maintained during the rest of the intravenous infusions of itraconazole. Oral follow-up with administration of 200-mg capsules once daily could not maintain the plasma concentrations of itraconazole and hydroxyitraconazole obtained at the end of the intravenous treatment, whereas twice-daily oral administration maintained or increased these concentrations. Mean plasma c…

The intravenous itraconazole formulation was licensed on the basis of evidence that its dosing regimen achieves adequate blood levels more rapidly and with less patient-to-patient variability than do oral preparations of the drug.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
