Population pharmacokinetic (popPK) models derived from small PK studies in neonates are often underpowered to detect clinically important characteristics that drive dosing. External validation of such models is crucial. In this study, the predictive performance of a gentamicin popPK model in neonates receiving hypothermia was evaluated. A previously published gentamicin popPK model was developed in neonates with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy undergoing hypothermia using a retrospective single-institution (UCSF) dataset. The predictive performance of this model was evaluated in an external retrospective dataset from UCSF (Validation A) and another from Duke University (Validation B). Both institutions used the same hypothermia protocol and collected similar clinical and PK data. Gentamicin dosing and samples were collected per routine care. Predictive performance was evaluated by quantifying the accuracy and precision of model predictions and using simulation-based diagnostics to detect bias in predictions. 41 neonates (18 Validation A, 23 Validation B) with median (range) gestational age of 40wks (33–42) and birth weight of 3.3kg (1.9–4.6) and 76 samples (55% troughs, 33% and 28% drawn at 24 and 36h post dose, respectively) were analyzed. The model adequately predicted gentamicin concentrations from the same institution (Validation A; median average fold error [AFE]=1.1 and numerical prediction distribution error [NPDE] p-value>0.05) but under-predicted concentrations from the outside institution (Validation B; median AFE=0.6 and NPDE p-value<0.05). The model demonstrated adequate predictive performance for an external dataset in the same institution but not from an outside institution. Larger sample sizes, use of data from multiple institutions, and external evaluation in development of popPK models in neonates may improve generalizability of dosing recommendations arising from single-institution studies.
