The effect of heart transplantation (HTx) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of caspofungin is not well-characterized. The aim of this study was to investigate the population PK of caspofungin in HTx and non-HTx patients and to identify covariates that may affect the PK of caspofungin. Seven successive blood samples were collected before administration and at 1, 2, 6, 10, 16, and 24 h after the administration of caspofungin for at least 3 days. This study recruited 27 HTx recipients and 31 non-HTx patients with 414 plasma concentrations in total. A nonlinear mixed-effects model was used to describe the population PK of caspofungin. The PK of caspofungin was best described by a two-compartment model. The clearance (CL) and volume of the central compartment ( |
