  • The Dose-Concentration-Effect Relationships—The Basis for TDM. a Critical Appraisal Lars F
    International Congress Series 1220 (2001) 117-123 The dose-concentration-effect relationships—the basis for TDM. A critical appraisal Lars F. Gram Institute of Public Health, Research Unit of Clinical Pharmacology, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Southern Denmark—Odense University, Odense, Denmark Abstract Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) is based on a series of theoretical assumptions, a clinical pharmacological rationale, scientific documentation and a practical implementation, respecting the theoretical and scientific basis. The clinical pharmacological rationale for TDM; a pharmacokinetic variability exceeding therapeutic index and dose titration on the basis of clinical or paraclinical measurements not being feasible, limits TDM to a minor fraction of all drags available. The theoretical assumption that blood concentration measurements reflect/predict the tissue/receptor concentration and the clinical endpoints, requires several points to be considered such as concentration fluctuations, protein binding, active metabolites, etc. A relatively constant ratio between blood and tissue/receptor concentration is generally assumed, but the important role of transporter proteins, with inter- and intraindividual variability due to polymorphisms, inducers and inhibitors seriously challenge this basic assumption. Concentration—effect relationships concerns groups of patients and indicate the probability of a given response (therapeutic/toxic) at a given concentration. Dose-effect and concentration-effect studies of drugs like digoxin, lithium and antidepressants have shown that the dose-effect or concentration-effect curves for therapeutic effect and tolerability are flat and overlapping. Dose-effect studies, now standard in drag development, represent a unique possibility to examine dose—concentration-effect relationships of new drags. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

  • Dopamine Receptor Contribution to the Action of PCP, LSD and Ketamine
    Molecular Psychiatry (2005) 10, 877–883 & 2005 Nature Publishing Group All rights reserved 1359-4184/05 $30.00 www.nature.com/mp ORIGINAL RESEARCH ARTICLE Dopamine receptor contribution to the action of PCP, LSD and ketamine psychotomimetics P Seeman1,2,FKo1 and T Tallerico2 1Department of Pharmacology, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada; 2Department of Psychiatry, University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada Although phencyclidine and ketamine are used to model a hypoglutamate theory of schizophrenia, their selectivity for NMDA receptors has been questioned. To determine the affinities of phencyclidine, ketamine, dizocilpine and LSD for the functional high-affinity state High of the dopamine D2 receptor, D2 , their dissociation constants (Ki) were obtained on [3H]domperidone binding to human cloned dopamine D2 receptors. Phencyclidine had a high High affinity for D2 with a Ki of 2.7 nM, in contrast to its low affinity for the NMDA receptor, with a 3 Ki of 313 nM, as labeled by [ H]dizocilpine on rat striatal tissue. Ketamine also had a high High affinity for D2 with a Ki of 55 nM, an affinity higher than its 3100 nM Ki for the NMDA sites. High Dizocilpine had a Ki of 0.3 nM at D2 , but a Kd of 1.8 nM at the NMDA receptor. LSD had a Ki of 2nMatD2High. Because the psychotomimetics had higher potency at D2High than at the NMDA site, the psychotomimetic action of these drugs must have a major contribution from D2 agonism. Because these drugs have a combined action on both dopamine receptors and NMDA receptors, these drugs, when given in vivo, test a combined hyperdopamine and hypoglutamate theory of psychosis.

    CENTER FOR DRUG EVALUATION AND RESEARCH APPLICATION NUMBER: 22-173 MEDICAL REVIEW(S) Review and Evaluation of Clinical Data NDA #22-173/000 Sponsor: Eli Lilly and Company Drug: Olanzapine Pamoate Depot Proposed Indication: Schizophrenia Material Submitted: Resubmission to CR Letter Correspondence Date: March 11, 2009 Date Received: March 12, 2009 Related NDA: NDA 20592 (olanzapine oral tablet) I. Background The original NDA was submitted on April 27, 2007 for the indications of acute and maintenance treatment of schizophrenia, and was granted a not approvable status on 25 February 2008. The primary deficiency in this application is the lack of sufficient information on the risk of a severe adverse event, the post- injection delirium/sedation syndrome (PDSS), characterized with severe central nerve system (CNS) depression and temporally associated with olanzapine pamoate depot (OP Depot) injection, which has been observed in approximately 1% of patients who have participated in the development program for OP Depot. On 7 May 2008, Lilly met with FDA to discuss aspects of a proposed amendment to the application that would address the primary deficiency, PDSS, including enhanced label language and risk-minimization activities. FDA suggested a medication registry in addition to the sponsor’s proposed risk management plan. On 13 June 2008, Lilly submitted a completed response package to the Not Approvable (NA) letter dated on 25 Feb. 2008. The submission includes an amended risk management plan, including additional information regarding the medication registry and draft training materials. On 15 December 2008, FDA issued a Complete Response (CR) Letter and requested the sponsor submitting a revised Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) and a revised Medication Guide to address the deficiencies identified by the division of Risk 1 Management (DRISK), the Office of Surveillance and Epidemiology (OSE).

Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Remoxipride (hydrochloride) is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the remoxipride (hydrochloride) in water. The solubility of remoxipride (hydrochloride) in water is approximately 100 nM. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day. Description 1 Remoxipride is an atypical antipsychotic and dopamine D2 receptor antagonist (Ki = 0.2 µM). It is selective for the dopamine D2 receptor over a panel of 33 receptors, neurotransmitter transporters, and ion channels at 10 µM but does inhibit the sigma (σ) receptor (Ki = 0.065 µM). Remoxipride (2-20 µmol/kg, i.p.) increases striatal 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and homovanillic 2 acid (HVA) levels in rats. It inhibits apomorphine-induced stereotypy and hyperactivity in rats with ED50 values of 5.6 and 0.8 µmol/kg, respectively.3 Formulations containing remoxipride have previously been used in the treatment of schizophrenia.
