Simmons Effects of Febuxostat on Autistic Behaviors and Computational Investigations of Diffusion and Pharmacokinetics Jamelle M. Simmons (ABSTRACT) Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a lifelong disability that has seen a rise in prevalence from 1 in 150 children to 1 in 59 between 2000 and 2014. Patients show behavioral ab- normalities in the areas of social interaction, communication, and restrictive and repetitive behaviors. As of now, the exact cause of ASD is unknown and literature points to multiple causes. The work contained within this dissertation explored the reduction of oxidative stress in brain tissue induced by xanthine oxidase (XO). Febuxostat is a new FDA approved XO- inhibitor that has been shown to be more selective and potent than allopurinol in patients with gout.The first study developed a computational model to calculate an effective diffu- sion constant (Deff ) of lipophilic compounds, such as febuxostat, that can cross endothelial cells of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) by the transcellular pathway. In the second study, male juvenile autistic (BTBR) mice were treated with febuxostat for seven days followed by behavioral testing and quantification of oxidative stress in brain tissue compared to controls.

  • Guideline for Preoperative Medication Management
    Guideline: Preoperative Medication Management Guideline for Preoperative Medication Management Purpose of Guideline: To provide guidance to physicians, advanced practice providers (APPs), pharmacists, and nurses regarding medication management in the preoperative setting. Background: Appropriate perioperative medication management is essential to ensure positive surgical outcomes and prevent medication misadventures.1 Results from a prospective analysis of 1,025 patients admitted to a general surgical unit concluded that patients on at least one medication for a chronic disease are 2.7 times more likely to experience surgical complications compared with those not taking any medications. As the aging population requires more medication use and the availability of various nonprescription medications continues to increase, so does the risk of polypharmacy and the need for perioperative medication guidance.2 There are no well-designed trials to support evidence-based recommendations for perioperative medication management; however, general principles and best practice approaches are available. General considerations for perioperative medication management include a thorough medication history, understanding of the medication pharmacokinetics and potential for withdrawal symptoms, understanding the risks associated with the surgical procedure and the risks of medication discontinuation based on the intended indication. Clinical judgement must be exercised, especially if medication pharmacokinetics are not predictable or there are significant risks associated with inappropriate medication withdrawal (eg, tolerance) or continuation (eg, postsurgical infection).2 Clinical Assessment: Prior to instructing the patient on preoperative medication management, completion of a thorough medication history is recommended – including all information on prescription medications, over-the-counter medications, “as needed” medications, vitamins, supplements, and herbal medications. Allergies should also be verified and documented.

  • Cross-Over Trial of Febuxostat and Topiroxostat for Hyperuricemia with Cardiovascular Disease (TROFEO Trial)
    Circ J 2017; 81: 1707 – 1712 ORIGINAL ARTICLE doi: 10.1253/circj.CJ-17-0438 Preventive Medicine Cross-Over Trial of Febuxostat and Topiroxostat for Hyperuricemia With Cardiovascular Disease (TROFEO Trial) Akira Sezai, MD, PhD; Kazuaki Obata; Keisuke Abe; Sakie Kanno; Hisakuni Sekino, MD, PhD Background: We previously reported that febuxostat was more effective for hyperuricemia than allopurinol. The efficacy, however, of topiroxostat (a novel xanthine oxidase reductase inhibitor similar to febuxostat), for hyperuricemia is unknown. Methods and Results: Patients with cardiovascular disease and hyperuricemia, in whom serum uric acid (s-UA) was controlled at ≤6 mg/dL, were eligible for enrollment. Fifty-five patients were randomized to receive either febuxostat or topiroxostat for 6 months and were switched to the other drug for the following 6 months. The primary endpoint was s-UA. Secondary endpoints included serum creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate, urinary albumin, cystatin-C, oxidized low-density lipoprotein, eicosapentaenoic acid/ arachidonic acid ratio, lipid biomarkers, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and B-type natriuretic protein. Although s-UA level was similar for both drugs, significantly more patients required dose escalation during treatment with topiroxostat. There were no differ- ences in renal function, inflammatory and lipid markers between the 2 drugs. A biomarker of oxidative stress was significantly lower after 3 months of febuxostat compared with topiroxostat. Conclusions: Febuxostat causes more marked and more rapid reduction of s-UA than topiroxostat. With regard to the antioxidant effect, febuxostat was superior to topiroxostat after 3 months. The renal protective and anti-inflammatory effects of both drugs were also similar after 6 months of treatment.
