Paclitaxel Plasma Concentration after the First Infusion Predicts Treatment-Limiting Peripheral Neuropathy.

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Paclitaxel exposure, specifically the maximum concentration (Cmax) and amount of time the concentration remains above 0.05 ?mol/L (Tc>0.05), has been associated with the occurrence of paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy. The objective of this study was to validate the relationship between paclitaxel exposure and peripheral neuropathy.Experimental Design: Patients with breast cancer receiving paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 × 12 weekly doses were enrolled in an observational clinical study (NCT02338115). Paclitaxel plasma concentration was measured at the end of and 16-26 hours after the first infusion to estimate Cmax and Tc>0.05 Patient-reported peripheral neuropathy was collected via CIPN20 at each dose, and an 8-item sensory subscale (CIPN8) was used in the primary analysis to test for an association with Tc>0.05 Secondary analyses were conducted using Cmax as an alternative exposure parameter and testing each parameter with a secondary endpoint of the occurrence of peripheral neuropathy-induced treatment disruption.Results: In 60 subjects included in the analysis, the increase in CIPN8 during treatment was associated with baseline CIPN8, cumulative dose, and relative dose intensity (P < 0.05), but neither Tc>0.05 (P = 0.27) nor Cmax (P = 0.99). In analyses of the secondary endpoint, cumulative dose (OR = 1.46; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.18-1.80; P = 0.0008) and Tc>0.05 (OR = 1.79; 95% CI, 1.06-3.01; P = 0.029) or Cmax (OR = 2.74; 95% CI, 1.45-5.20; P = 0.002) were associated with peripheral neuropathy-induced treatment disruption.Conclusions: Paclitaxel exposure is predictive of the occurrence of treatment-limiting peripheral neuropathy in patients receiving weekly paclitaxel for breast cancer. Studies are warranted to determine whether exposure-guided dosing enhances treatment effectiveness and/or prevents peripheral neuropathy in these patients.

Project description:BackgroundChemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a treatment-limiting and debilitating neurotoxicity of many commonly used anti-cancer agents, including paclitaxel. The objective of this study was to confirm the previously found inverse association between pre-treatment blood concentrations of histidine and CIPN occurrence and examine relationships of other amino acids with CIPN severity.MethodsPre-treatment levels of 20 amino acid concentrations were measured via a targeted mass spectrometry assay in banked serum from the SWOG S0221 (NCT00070564) trial of patients with early-stage breast cancer receiving paclitaxel. The associations between amino acid levels and CIPN occurrence or severity were tested in regression analysis adjusted for paclitaxel schedule, age, self-reported race, and body mass index with Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons. The network of metabolic pathways of amino acids was analyzed using over-representation analysis in MetaboAnalyst. The partial correlation network of amino acids was evaluated using a debiased sparse partial correlation algorithm and Cytoscape.ResultsIn the primary analysis, histidine concentration was not associated with CIPN occurrence (odds ratio (OR) = 0.97 [0.83, 1.13], p = 0.72). In a secondary analysis, no amino acid was associated with CIPN occurrence (all p > 0.0025). Higher concentrations of four amino acids, glutamate (β = 0.58 [0.23, 0.93], p = 0.001), phenylalanine (β = 0.54 [0.19, 0.89], p = 0.002), tyrosine (β = 0.57 [0.23, 0.91], p = 0.001), and valine (β = 0.58 [0.24, 0.92], p = 0.001) were associated with more severe CIPN, but none of these associations retained significance after adjustment. In the over-representation analysis, no amino acid metabolic pathways were significantly enriched (all FDR > 0.05). In the network of enriched pathways, glutamate metabolism had the highest centrality.ConclusionsThis analysis showed that pre-treatment serum amino acid concentrations are not strongly predictive of CIPN severity. Future prospectively designed studies that assess non-amino acid metabolomics predictors are encouraged.
