Statistical tests were performed using the Type III sum of squares derived using WinNonlin Pro Version 2.1.
  • Least-squares treatment mean values were determined for each parameter. Results from ANOVA were used to calculate 90% confidence intervals for the ratio (test/reference) least-squares treatment mean values, where administration of single nelfinavir doses fasting was the reference treatment. Confidence intervals were calculated using WinNonlin Pro Version 2.1. Confidence intervals were used as an aid in data interpretation. Descriptive statistics of nelfinavir Cmax and AUC were examined to determine the effect of meals of various fat content on the variability of these parameter values. Plasma concentrations of nelfinavir and M8 were measured by validated high- performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methods. Pharmacokinetic parameters were determined from plasma concentration-time data using standard noncompartmental methods. Statistical Methods
  • Log-transformed nelfinavir area under the plasma concentration-time profile (AUC) values was the primary parameter analyzed to determine the effect of fat content of meals on nelfinavir pharmacokinetics.
  • the 90% confidence intervals for the ratios of test (with test meal) to reference (fasting) least-squares mean AUC as well as maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) values were calculated using log-transformed data and expressed as a percentage of the reference mean. The relationship between nelfinavir exposure and fat content of the meals was examined.
  • Nelfinavir pharmacokinetic parameter values following administration of 5 x 250-mg nelfinavir tablets to fasting subjects (reference), during a moderate calorie/low fat meal, and during a moderate calorie/high fat meal are summarized in the following Table 8. 0 Table 8. Nelfinavir Pharmacokinetic Parameter Values, Example 2
  • nelfinavir administered with meals of similar caloric content and 20% and 50% fat content resulted in longer time to maximum plasma concentration (tmax) values and higher Cmax values.
  • Mean tmax values were approximately 2 hours longer when administered with meals of 20% and 50% fat content, relative to that in fasting subjects.
  • Mean Cmax values were approximately 2.5- and 3.8-fold higher in meals of 20% and 50% fat content, respectively.
  • AUC(O- ⁇ ) area under the plasma concentration-time profile from time zero extrapolated to infinite time
  • the bioavailability of nelfinavir was approximately 3- and 5-fold higher following administration of meals containing 20% and 50% fat content, respectively, relative to that in fasting subjects. Fat content did not have a profound effect on nelfinavir terminal half-life (V/z) values.
  • Nelfinavir elimination t 1 /2 values following administration to fasting subjects and with test meals were similar, averaging approximately 4 hours.
  • Figure 8 Mean nelfinavir pharmacokinetic parameter values in the comparison of nelfinavir administration with test meals relative to those to fasting subjects are presented in Table 9, along with ratios and confidence intervals. Individual Cmax and AUC values are illustrated in
  • Ratio Ratio of treatment mean values expressed as a percentage (100%. x test/reference)
  • This example indicates that fat intake has a marked effect on nelfinavir pharmacokinetic parameters after a single dose exposure.
  • AUC values increased 3.2 fold with a 500 kcal, 20% fat breakfast and 5.2 fold with the same Kcal but 50% fat when compared to the fasting AUC. These values were similar to the values previously determined for a 500 Kcal, 20% fat breakfast and a 1000 Kcal, 50% fat breakfast.
  • fat content in meals affects nelfinavir PK in addition to its Kcal content suggesting a plateau effect for Kcal content.
  • a 500kcal/50% fat meal can be delivered as 3.5-4 ounces of roasted peanuts, less than one cup of canned coconut cream, or a variety of American breakfast fast foods. Also, the fat dependence allows the development of a formulation of nelfinavir with fat that would enhance compliance with optimal administration of the medication.
  • the 90% confidence interval (90% CI) is calculated for the ratio above the CI.
  • the ratio of plasma levels of nelfinavir metabolite to nelfinavir is expressed as "M8 AUC ⁇ /nelfinavir AUC ⁇ (x 100).
