Objectives We assessed the plasma and soft-tissue pharmacokinetic exposure of omadacycline in infected patients with diabetic foot infection (DFI) and healthy volunteers using in vivo microdialysis. Methods Eight patients and six healthy volunteers were enrolled and received an omadacycline IV loading dose (200 mg) followed by two oral doses (300 mg) every 24 h. Microdialysis catheters were placed in the soft tissue near the infected diabetic foot wound (patients) or thigh (healthy volunteers). Plasma and dialysate fluid samples were collected, starting immediately prior to the third dose and continued for 24 h post-dose. Protein binding was determined by ultracentrifugation. Results The mean ± SD omadacycline pharmacokinetic parameters in plasma for infected patients and healthy volunteers were: Cmax, 0.57 ± 0.15 and 1.14 ± 0.26 mg/L; t½, 16.19 ± 5.06 and 25.34 ± 12.92 h; and total omadacycline AUC0–24, 6.27 ± 1.38 and 14.06 ± 3.40 mg·h/L, respectively. The omadacycline mean plasma free fraction was 0.21 and 0.20 for patients and healthy volunteers, corresponding to free plasma AUC0–24 of 1.13 ± 0.37 and 2.78 ± 0.55 mg·h/L, respectively. Omadacycline tissue AUC0–24 was 0.82 ± 0.38 and 1.37 ± 0.48 mg·h/L for patients and volunteers, respectively. Conclusions The present study describes the plasma and soft-tissue exposure of omadacycline in patients with DFI and healthy volunteers. Integrating these data with the microbiological, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic and clinical efficacy data is foundational to support clinical assessments of omadacycline efficacy specifically for DFI. This, coupled with the once-daily oral administration, suggests omadacycline could be an advantageous translational therapy for the hospital and outpatient setting. |
