International audience. Last resort antibiotics, like ceftazidime–avibactam (CZA), were used to treat urinary tract infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria. However, no data on tissue distribution were available. Our aim was to describe the in vivo kidney distribution of CZA in healthy rats and pigs using a physiologically based pharmacokinetic model (PBPK). Microdialysis probes were inserted into the blood, muscle, and kidney of both species. The experiment started with a retrodialysis by drug period. An i.v. single dose of CZA was administered. Samples were collected for 3 h in rats and 7 h in pigs. A PBPK model was developed to describe tissue and blood CZA pharmacokinetics in animals and to predict human concentrations. The PBPK model adequately described CZA rat and pig data in each tissue and blood. In both species, the concentration profiles of CZA in muscle and blood were almost superimposed, with muscle-to-plasma area under the curve (AUC) ratios close to one. However, kidney CZA concentrations were higher than those in blood, as indicated by kidney-to-plasma AUC ratios exceeding one (respectively 2.27 in rats and 2.63 in pigs for ceftazidime [CAZ]; 2.7 in rats and 4.5 in pigs for avibacam [AVI]). Prediction of human concentrations led to same observations. This study demonstrated an excellent penetration of CZA into the renal parenchyma of rats and pigs. Our PBPK model adequately described the data, and AUCs were higher in the renal cortex interstitium compared with unbound plasma. Our data suggested that the joint PK/PD target for CZA in humans could be attained with reduced CZA doses.
