    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.

    Notes: Abstract The bioequivalence of etoposide phosphate, a prodrug of etoposide, to etoposide was assessed in a randomized, crossover study in 29 patients with histologically established solid tumors that had failed conventional treatment. Cohorts of patients received one treatment course each of etoposide and etoposide phosphate which consisted of a 100 mg/m2 per day etoposide equivalent dose infused iv over 1 hr on a Day 1 to 5 schedule of treatment. The second course was administered 21 days later or on recovery of blood cell counts. Plasma and urine samples were collected over 24 hr on Day 1 of each course and assayed for etoposide content by a validated HPLC/UV method. Resulting data were subjected to noncompartmental pharmacokinetic analysis. Hematology profiles were obtained by collecting blood samples prior to the first course and twice a week after each course. The pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of etoposide were virtually identical after the two treatments. The point estimates (90% confidence intervals) for nadir WBC, granulocytes, hemoglobin, and platelets expressed as % decrease from the baseline, and for the pharmacokinetic parameters, Cmax, and AUC0-∞, after intravenous etoposide phosphate relative to etoposide were 100% (96%, 105%), 97% (91%, 103%), 95% (82%, 109%), 95% (84%, 106%), 107% (101%, 113%), and 113% (107%, 119%), respectively. Therefore, etoposide phosphate is bioequivalent to etoposide based on pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic assessments.
