Background: Daptomycin is a high‐use intravenous antimicrobial agent affording the convenience of once‐daily dosing. Prior studies suggest an opportunity to use a more operationally convenient fixed rather than weight‐based dosing but this approach has not been studied prospectively. Methods: This study quantified the probability of toxicity and efficacy end points by prospectively testing a fixed dose regimen of daptomycin (750 mg) in obese and non‐obese adults. At least, three daptomycin concentrations were measured at steady‐state for each patient. A population pharmacokinetic model was constructed to evaluate concentration‐time profiles and investigate covariates of daptomycin clearance. Simulations were performed to evaluate the probability of achieving efficacy (24‐h area under the curve (AUC0‐24) ≥ 666 mg∙h/L) and toxicity (minimum concentration (Cmin) ≥24.3 mg/L) targets for fixed (500–1000 mg) and weight‐based (6–12 mg/kg) daptomycin doses. Results: Thirty‐one patients (16 females, 15 males) with median (interquartile range (IQR)) age of 50 (30, 62) years and weight of 74 (54, 156) kg were included in the final analysis. Fixed dose daptomycin (750 mg) resulted in similar exposure across weights with a median (IQR) AUC0‐24 of 819 (499, 1501) mg∙h/L and 749 (606, 1265) mg∙h/L in patients weighing ≤74 kg and >74 kg, respectively. Overall, male sex and increased kidney function necessitate higher fixed and weight‐based doses to achieve efficacy. Creatine phosphokinase elevation was observed in two patients (6.5%) and predicted to be lower with fixed versus weight‐based regimens. Conclusions: Fixed daptomycin dosing adjusted for sex and kidney function is expected to improve the efficacy‐to‐toxicity ratio, transitions of care, and costs compared to weight‐based doses. However, no empiric dosing approach is predicted to achieve ≥90% efficacy while minimizing the risk of toxicity, so therapeutic drug monitoring should be considered on a patient‐specific basis.
