Precision Oncology by Point-of-Care Therapeutic Drug Monitoring and Dosage Adjustment of Conventional Cytotoxic Chemotherapies: A Perspective.

ABSTRACT: Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of conventional cytotoxic chemotherapies is strongly supported yet poorly implemented in daily practice in hospitals. Analytical methods for the quantification of cytotoxic drugs are instead widely presented in the scientific literature, while the use of these therapeutics is expected to keep going for longer. There are two main issues hindering the implementation of TDM: turnaround time, which is incompatible with the dosage profiles of these drugs, and exposure surrogate marker, namely total area under the curve (AUC). Therefore, this perspective article aims to define the adjustment needed from current to efficient TDM practice for cytotoxics, namely point-of-care (POC) TDM. For real-time dose adjustment, which is required for chemotherapies, such POC TDM is only achievable with analytical methods that match the sensitivity and selectivity of current methods, such as chromatography, as well as model-informed precision dosing platforms to assist the oncologist with dose fine-tuning based on quantification results and targeted intervals.

Project description:BackgroundThe objectives of the present prospective observational study conducted in patients receiving conventional dosage of linezolid was to define the pharmacodynamic range of linezolid exposure, to assess the inter-individual variability in linezolid concentrations, and to define if therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of linezolid may be necessary for Chinese population.MethodsPatients included in this study underwent linezolid TDM trough concentration (C min) during treatment with a standard regimen in the period between January 2019 and October 2019. Linezolid C min was analyzed with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. Logistic regression was used to define the desired range of linezolid C min. Linear regression and univariate logistic regression analysis were carried out to investigate variables associated with inappropriate linezolid plasma exposure.ResultsA total of 84 patients who had 153 linezolid C min assessed were included in the study. Median linezolid C min was 3.43 mg/L (IQR 1.59-5.93). The estimated probability of thrombocytopenia was 50% in the presence of C min of 7.85 mg/L. Approximately 57.52% (88/153) of the samples fell within the desired range of linezolid C min (2-8 mg/L) while 31.37% (48/153) experienced underexposure, and overexposure occurred in 11.11% (17/153) of the patients. No significant linear relationships between either body weight or estimated creatinine clearance (CrCL) and C min were detected. Estimated CrCL ≥100 mL/min was significantly associated with linezolid underexposure (OR 4.121; 95% CI, 1.945-8.731; P<0.001). Estimated CrCL ≤40 mL/min was significantly associated with linezolid overexposure (OR 3.761; 95% CI, 1.324-10.681; P=0.013).ConclusionsOur results suggest that the pharmacodynamic range of linezolid C min can be defined as 2-8 mg/L for the Chinese population. Renal function partially accounts for the inter-interindividual variability of exposure. The application of TDM might be especially valuable in optimizing linezolid exposure in the majority of patients to avoid therapeutic failure and/or dose-dependent adverse reactions.

Project description:Purpose: The purpose of this study was 1) to predict the requisite vancomycin daily dose (D van ) used in the target patients suffering from both bacterial infection and hematological malignancies and 2) to construct a vancomycin-dose-graphical tool to assist clinicians to develop vancomycin dosing regimens and further 3) to establish a programming process for vancomycin dynamic dosage adjustment to help clinicians to adjust vancomycin dosing regimens according to physiological and pathogenic factors of the target patients. Methods: The D van model associated with microbial susceptibility, vancomycin pharmacokinetics, and dosing parameters was established, and the D van was estimated based on the established D van model and using Monte Carlo simulations. D van achieving 90% of probability of target attainment (PTA) for bacterial isolate or cumulative fractions of response (CFR) for the bacterial population at a ratio of daily area under the curve (AUC24) to the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) [i.e., AUC24/MIC] of 400-600 was considered sufficient to treat infection occurring in the target patients. On the basis of the predicted D van , the physiological states of patients, and the pathogenic variables of infection, a vancomycin-dose-graphical tool for the target patients and a programming process for vancomycin dynamic dosage adjustment were constructed. Results: This study predicted the requisite D van used in patients suffering from both bacterial infection and hematological malignancies and constructed a vancomycin-dose-graphical tool for the target patients, at different physiological states and pathogenic variables, to formulate vancomycin dosing regimens. Also, this study established and expounded the formulation process of vancomycin dosage dynamic adjustment according to fluctuant renal function of the target patients. Conclusion: With the tools, the required D van or vancomycin dosing regimens for the target patients, at different physiological states and pathogenic variables, can be readily known, whether or not vancomycin dynamic dosage adjustment is required.
