Summary

The number of obese people will reach 50% of the world population by 2035. Obesity is a chronic disease. For obese patients, dosage regimens have been determined for patients with a "normal" BMI between 20-30 kg/m2. Based on plasma and urine concentrations, a pharmacokinetic model will be performed to study in healthy volunteers, the predictive character of lean mass, measured by DEXA, on renal elimination and therefore on acyclovir exposure. The main objective of this study is to evaluate, in 4 volunteers groups representative of (1) non-obese (18-24.9 kg/m2), (2) overweight (25-29.9 kg/m2), (3) grade 1 obesity (30-34.9 kg/m2) and (4) grade 2 obesity (35-39.9 kg/m2), the predictive nature of lean mass, measured by DEXA, on renal elimination and therefore on acyclovir exposure.
