Population Modeling Integrating Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacogenetics, and Clinical Outcome in Patients With Sunitinib-Treated Cancer.

ABSTRACT: The tyrosine kinase inhibitor sunitinib is used as first-line therapy in patients with metastasized renal cell carcinoma (mRCC), given in fixed-dose regimens despite its high variability in pharmacokinetics (PKs). Interindividual variability of drug exposure may be responsible for differences in response. Therefore, dosing strategies based on pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) models may be useful to optimize treatment. Plasma concentrations of sunitinib, its active metabolite SU12662, and the soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptors sVEGFR-2 and sVEGFR-3, were measured in 26 patients with mRCC within the EuroTARGET project and 21 patients with metastasized colorectal cancer (mCRC) from the C-II-005 study. Based on these observations, PK/PD models with potential influence of genetic predictors were developed and linked to time-to-event (TTE) models. Baseline sVEGFR-2 levels were associated with clinical outcome in patients with mRCC, whereas active drug PKs seemed to be more predictive in patients with mCRC. The models provide the basis of PK/PD-guided strategies for the individualization of anti-angiogenic therapies.

Project description:Afatinib is an oral, irreversible ErbB family blocker that covalently binds to the kinase domains of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), human EGFRs (HER) 2, and HER4, resulting in irreversible inhibition of tyrosine kinase autophosphorylation. Studies in healthy volunteers and patients with advanced solid tumours have shown that once-daily afatinib has time-independent pharmacokinetic characteristics. Maximum plasma concentrations of afatinib are reached approximately 2-5 h after oral administration and thereafter decline, at least bi-exponentially. Food reduces total exposure to afatinib. Over the clinical dose range of 20-50 mg, afatinib exposure increases slightly more than dose proportional. Afatinib metabolism is minimal, with unchanged drug predominantly excreted in the faeces and approximately 5 % in urine. Apart from the parent drug afatinib, the major circulation species in human plasma are the covalently bound adducts to plasma protein. The effective elimination half-life is approximately 37 h, consistent with an accumulation of drug exposure by 2.5- to 3.4-fold based on area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) after multiple dosing. The pharmacokinetic profile of afatinib is consistent across a range of patient populations. Age, ethnicity, smoking status and hepatic function had no influence on afatinib pharmacokinetics, while females and patients with low body weight had increased exposure to afatinib. Renal function is correlated with afatinib exposure, but, as for sex and body weight, the effect size for patients with severe renal impairment (approximately 50 % increase in AUC) is only mildly relative to the extent of unexplained interpatient variability in afatinib exposure. Afatinib has a low potential as a victim or perpetrator of drug-drug interactions, especially with cytochrome P450-modulating agents. However, concomitant treatment with potent inhibitors or inducers of the P-glycoprotein transporter can affect the pharmacokinetics of afatinib. At a dose of 50 mg, afatinib does not have proarrhythmic potential.
