N2 - The pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability of two repeated dosing regimens of oral fosfomycin tromethamine were evaluated in 18 healthy adult subjects. Subjects received 3 g every other day (QOD) for 3 doses and then every day (QD) for 7 doses, or vice versa, in a phase I, randomized, open-label, two-period-crossover study. Serial blood (n 11) and urine (n 4 collection intervals) samples were collected before and up to 24 h after dosing on days 1 and 5, along with predose concentrations on days 3 and 7. PK parameters were similar between days 1 and 5 within and between dosing regimens. The mean ( standard deviation [SD]) PK parameters for fosfomycin in plasma on day 5 during the respective QOD and QD dosing regimens were as follows: maximum concentration of drug in serum (Cmax) 24.4 6.2 versus 23.8 5.6 g/ml, time to Cmax (Tmax) 2.2 0.7 versus 2.0 0.4 h, apparent volume of distribution (V/F) 141 67.9 versus 147 67.6 liters, apparent clearance (CL/F) 21.4 8.0 versus 20.4 5.3 liters/h, renal clearance (CLR) 7.5 4.1 versus 7.3 3.5 liters/h, area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h (AUC0–24) 151.6 35.6 versus 156.6 42.5 g · h/ml, and elimination half-life (t1/2) 4.5 1.1 versus 5.0 1.7 h. Urine concentrations peaked at approximately 600 g/ml through the 0- to 8-h urine collection intervals but displayed significant interindividual variability. Roughly 35 to 40% of the 3-g dose was excreted in the urine by 24 h postdose. No new safety concerns were identified during this study. The proportion of diarrhea-free days during the study was significantly lower with the QD regimen than with the QOD regimen (61% versus 77%; P 0.0001). Further studies to establish the clinical benefit/risk ratio for repeated dosing regimens of oral fosfomycin tromethamine are warranted. (This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov under registration no. NCT02570074.)
