الوصف: | Dietary dosing of the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) TMC125, under development for treatment of HIV-1, resulted in a syndrome in male mice in a previous experiment that was termed hemorrhagic cardiomyopathy. In literature, this syndrome, which was described in rodent species only, was linked to vitamin K deficiency. Two mechanistic studies were conducted, one with dietary administration and a second with gavage. The syndrome was reproduced in only 1 male mouse after continuous dietary dosing, and TMC125 was demonstrated to affect coagulation parameters (prothrombin time [PT], activated partial thromboplastin time [APTT], clotting factors II, VII and XI), particularly in males. This was counteracted by vitamin K supplementation, supporting the hypothesis that the effects were mediated via a vitamin K deficiency. It is therefore concluded that the observed cardiac changes were not caused by a direct cardiotoxic effect but occurred after a state of disabled clotting ability with subsequent effects on mouse cardiac muscle. Therefore, clotting times can be used as adequate safety biomarkers in clinical trials. To date, no changes have been observed at therapeutic doses of TMC125, following human monitoring of PT and APTT. One other NNRTI, Efavirenz (Sustiva), has been reported to cause prolongation of coagulation times in rats and monkeys. |
