Summary

Antimycobacterial treatment of M. avium complex pulmonary disease (MAC-PD) has suboptimal cure rates and is challenging due to frequent adverse drug reactions and drug-drug interactions. Hence, there is an urgent need for improved treatment regimens with effective and tolerable antibiotics.

Minocycline is a well-tolerated, orally administered tetracycline-type antibiotic with in vitro activity against MAC, but pharmacokinetic data in the target population is lacking. Moreover, rifampicin, a strong inducer of cytochrome P450 enzymes involved in drug metabolism and of various drug transporters, is part of the current first-line MAC-PD treatment regimen and has a substantial interaction with doxycycline, a related tetracycline.

Pharmacokinetic data in the target population will allow us to propose an appropriate dose of minocycline when co-administered with or without rifampicin

Mino-PK is an open label, one-arm, two-period, fixed-order pharmacokinetic study that will assess exposure to minocycline in MAC-PD patients with and without concurrent use of rifampicin. Subjects will receive two 5-day dosing periods of minocycline; the first without and second with concurrent use of rifampicin. Minocycline plasma concentrations will be determined after both dosing periods.

Conditions

  • Mycobacterium Avium Complex Pulmonary Disease

Interventions

DRUG

Minocycline

Patients with M. avium complex pulmonary disease will receive 200 mg of minocycline for 5 days before starting rifampicin and after 1 month (±1 week) of receiving rifampicin. Antimycobacterial drugs other than rifampicin can be started prior to or simultaneous with the first minocycline dosing period as part of standard care. At day 5 of both minocycline dosing periods, blood will be sampled for minocycline plasma concentration measurements at T = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 24 hours.
