Background In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), amikacin is the alternative for the treatment of acute pulmonary exacerbations associated with pathogens resistant to tobramycin. Population pharmacokinetic (PK) models of amikacin in adult patients with CF have been previously published. However, current dosing recommendations remain disputed (Illamola et al. Clin Pharmacokinet. 2018;57(10):1217-1228). We perform here the first external evaluation of a published amikacin adult CF population PK model and propose a dosing nomogram for initial dosing. Methods We retrospectively collected demographic, biological, and clinical data from the medical records of adult patients who had received intravenous amikacin. To assess the predictive performance of this model we applied visual comparison of predictions to observations, calculation of bias and inaccuracy, and simulation-based diagnostics. Monte Carlo simulations from the evaluated model were used to compare maximum concentration/minimum inhibitory concentration achieved with different dosing regimens. Results A total of 91 concentrations from 19 adult patients with CF were collected for external evaluation. The model predicted amikacin concentrations with reasonable bias (7.2% [95% confidence interval, CI: -0.7% to 15.0%]) and inaccuracy (18.2% [95% CI: 12.0%-24.4%]). Our simulations with this model suggest that administered amikacin doses must be adjusted to creatinine clearance and also adjusted to body weight (doses from 20 to 45 mg/kg/d). According to these simulations, we developed the Montreal amikacin nomogram to optimize amikacin dosing regimens in patients with CF. Conclusion In conclusion, we developed the first nomogram to optimize initial amikacin dosing regimens in patients with CF based on this external evaluation of a recently published amikacin population PK model.
