    Notes: Abstract The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of prolonged oral etoposide chemotherapy were investigated in 15 women with metastatic breast cancer who received oral etoposide 100 mg as a single daily dose for up to 15 days. There was considerable interpatient variability in the day 1 pharmacokinetic parameters: area under the plasma concentration time curve (AUC) (0–24 h) 1.95±0.87 mg/ml per min (mean ± SD), apparent oral clearance 60.9±21.7 ml/min per 1.73 m2, peak plasma concentration 5.6±2.5 μg/ml, time to peak concentration 73±35 min and half-life 220±83 min. However, intrapatient variability in systemic exposure to etoposide was much less with repeated doses. The intrapatient coefficient of variation (CV) of AUC for day 8 relative to day 1 was 20% and for day 15 relative to day 1 was 15%, compared to the day 1 interpatient CV of 45%. Neutropenia was the principal toxicity. Day 1 pharmacokinetic parameters were related to the percentage decrease in absolute neutrophil count using the sigmoidal Emax equation. A good fit was found between day 1 AUC and neutrophil toxicity (R 2=0.77). All patients who had a day 1 AUC〉2.0 mg/ml per min had WHO grade III or IV neutropenia. The predictive performance of the models for neutrophil toxicity was better for AUC (percentage mean predictive error 5%, percentage root mean square error 18.1%) than apparent oral clearance, peak plasma concentration, or daily dose (mg/m2). A limited sampling strategy was developed to predict AUC using a linear regression model incorporating a patient effect. Data sets were divided into training and test sets. The AUC could be estimated using a model utilizing plasma etoposide concentration at only two time points, 4 h and 6 h after oral dosing (R 2=98.9%). The equation AUCpr=−0.376+0.631×C4h+0.336×C6h was validated on the test set with a relative mean predictive error of −0.88% and relative root mean square error of 6.4%. These results suggest monitoring of AUC to predict subsequent myelosuppression as a strategy for future trials with oral etoposide.

    Notes: Abstract Introduction: Cereport (RMP-7) is a novel bradykinin agonist which is being developed as a modulator of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). In order to investigate the pharmacokinetics of carboplatin in combination with Cereport, we performed pharmacological studies in conjunction with early clinical trials. Methods: Pharmacokinetic samples were collected from eight patients in a phase I study (Cereport 100–300 ng/kg) and ten patients in a phase II study (Cereport 300 ng/kg). Pharmacokinetic parameters for carboplatin were compared with respect to the dose of Cereport and with historical controls. Results: Cereport combined with carboplatin was well-tolerated, with mild haematological toxicities consistent with the target area under the concentration–time curve (AUC) of 7 mg/ml*min. Although the clearance of carboplatin was within the range reported for this drug alone, the addition of Cereport resulted in a higher than expected carboplatin AUC. This effect was related to the dose of Cereport in the phase I study (AUC values 104–133% of target, Spearman rank correlation coefficient=0.71, P 〈 0.001). The higher than expected AUC value was confirmed in the phase II study (AUC values 106–189% of target). Conclusions: Co-administration of Cereport with carboplatin may result in a greater than predicted AUC. The mechanism of this possible interaction remains to be determined, although this did not result in any increased toxicity. Thus, the clinical potential of this combination in the treatment of brain tumours warrants further investigation.

    Notes: Abstract  The aim of this study was to develop and validate a simple and rapid method for the estimation of the area under the free carboplatin plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC). The relationship between the carboplatin AUC and the total plasma platinum (Pt) concentration 24 h after treatment was studied using data from 49 patients treated with 20–1600 mg/m2 carboplatin as a 60–100 min infusion (median 60 min). The relationship was confirmed by the in vitro incubation of carboplatin in human plasma and prospectively validated in 13 ovarian cancer patients. Free carboplatin was separated by ultrafiltration (MW cut off 30,000), and free and total Pt measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. There was a linear relationship in vivo between the 24 h (median 24.4; range 16.3–27.3 h) total plasma Pt concentration (μM) and free carboplatin AUC (mg/ml.min): AUC=(24 h Pt+0.3)/0.82 (r 2=0.93, AUC median 5.8 (0.13–28)mg/ml.min, 24 h Pt median 4.4 (0.1–23) μM). A similar relationship was observed in vitro [AUC=(24 h Pt +0.1)/0.93 (r 2=0.98, AUC median 7.9 (2.0–17) mg/ml.min, 24 h Pt median 7.1 (1.8–15) μM)]. The relationship derived from the in vivo data gave an unbiased and reasonably accurate estimate of the measured carboplatin AUC in 13 patients (AUC=5.1–8.7 mg/ml.min, GFR=59–129 ml/min, infusion time 30–45 min, 24 h sampling time 22.9–24.5 h), giving a percentage mean error of −4.2% and root mean squared percentage error of 11.5%. These results show that the analysis of a single blood sample taken 24 h after carboplatin administration can be used to produce an unbiased and reasonably accurate measure of the free carboplatin AUC. Unlike published limited sampling strategies, this method is not complicated by the need to accurately control the duration of the carboplatin infusion or the time at which the sample is taken.
