Predictors of valproic acid steady-state serum levels in adult and pediatric psychiatric inpatients: a comparative analysis.
Rationale: Valproic acid (VPA) is commonly used as a second-line mood stabilizer or augmentative agent in severe mental illnesses. However, population pharmacokinetic studies specific to psychiatric populations are limited, and clinical predictors for the precision application of VPA remain undefined.
Objectives: To identify steady-state serum VPA level predictors in pediatric/adolescent and adult psychiatric inpatients.
Methods: We analyzed data from 634 patients and 1,068 steady-state therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) data points recorded from 2015 to 2021. Steady-state VPA levels were obtained after tapering during each hospitalization episode. Electronic patient records were screened for routine clinical parameters and co-medication. Generalized additive mixed models were employed to identify independent predictors.
Results: Most TDM episodes involved patients with psychotic disorders, including schizophrenia (29.2%) and schizoaffective disorder (17.3%). Polypharmacy was common, with the most frequent combinations being VPA + quetiapine and VPA + promethazine. Age was significantly associated with VPA levels, with pediatric/adolescent patients (< 18 years) demonstrating higher dose-adjusted serum levels of VPA (β = 7.6±2.34, p < 0.001) after accounting for BMI. Women tended to have higher adjusted VPA serum levels than men (β = 5.08±1.62, p < 0.001). The formulation of VPA (Immediate-release vs. extended-release) showed no association with VPA levels. Co-administration of diazepam exhibited a dose-dependent decrease in VPA levels (F = 15.7, p < 0.001), suggesting a potential pharmacokinetic interaction.
Conclusions: This study highlights the utility of population-specific pharmacokinetic data for VPA in psychiatric populations. Age, gender, and co-administration of diazepam were identified as predictors of VPA levels. Further research is warranted to establish additional predictors and optimize the precision application of VPA in psychiatric patients.
期刊介绍：
Official Journal of the European Behavioural Pharmacology Society (EBPS)
Psychopharmacology is an international journal that covers the broad topic of elucidating mechanisms by which drugs affect behavior. The scope of the journal encompasses the following fields:
Human Psychopharmacology: Experimental
This section includes manuscripts describing the effects of drugs on mood, behavior, cognition and physiology in humans. The journal encourages submissions that involve brain imaging, genetics, neuroendocrinology, and developmental topics. Usually manuscripts in this section describe studies conducted under controlled conditions, but occasionally descriptive or observational studies are also considered.
Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Translational
This section comprises studies addressing the broad intersection of drugs and psychiatric illness. This includes not only clinical trials and studies of drug usage and metabolism, drug surveillance, and pharmacoepidemiology, but also work utilizing the entire range of clinically relevant methodologies, including neuroimaging, pharmacogenetics, cognitive science, biomarkers, and others. Work directed toward the translation of preclinical to clinical knowledge is especially encouraged. The key feature of submissions to this section is that they involve a focus on clinical aspects.
Preclinical psychopharmacology: Behavioral and Neural
This section considers reports on the effects of compounds with defined chemical structures on any aspect of behavior, in particular when correlated with neurochemical effects, in species other than humans. Manuscripts containing neuroscientific techniques in combination with behavior are welcome. We encourage reports of studies that provide insight into the mechanisms of drug action, at the behavioral and molecular levels.
Preclinical Psychopharmacology: Translational
This section considers manuscripts that enhance the confidence in a central mechanism that could be of therapeutic value for psychiatric or neurological patients, using disease-relevant preclinical models and tests, or that report on preclinical manipulations and challenges that have the potential to be translated to the clinic. Studies aiming at the refinement of preclinical models based upon clinical findings (back-translation) will also be considered. The journal particularly encourages submissions that integrate measures of target tissue exposure, activity on the molecular target and/or modulation of the targeted biochemical pathways.
Preclinical Psychopharmacology: Molecular, Genetic and Epigenetic
This section focuses on the molecular and cellular actions of neuropharmacological agents / drugs, and the identification / validation of drug targets affecting the CNS in health and disease. We particularly encourage studies that provide insight into the mechanisms of drug action at the molecular level. Manuscripts containing evidence for genetic or epigenetic effects on neurochemistry or behavior are welcome.
