A Limited Sampling Strategy for Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of Mycophenolate Mofetil for Prophylaxis of Acute Graft-Versus-Host Disease in Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation.

ABSTRACT: A universally accepted strategy for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) in the prevention of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) does not exist. We explored the feasibility of developing a limited sampling strategy (LSS) for TDM of MMF in this setting. Patients undergoing alloHSCT received standard MMF-cyclosporine prophylaxis, with MMF administered twice daily (BD) for matched transplant recipients or thrice daily (TID) in haploidentical transplantation. Intensive blood sampling was carried out on day 7 and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of mycophenolic acid (MPA), the active metabolite, was estimated using noncompartmental analysis. The ability of MPA exposure defined by AUC0-12 to discriminate between responders (patients who did not develop GVHD) and nonresponders (patients who developed GVHD) was determined by receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Patients were divided into training and validation sets within BD and TID groups. Mathematical equations were developed from the training set to predict AUC0-12 from an abbreviated AUC involving a limited number of sampling points. The equations were validated in the validation set by comparing the MPA AUC0-12 predicted from LSS with the observed AUC0-12. It was observed that patients with AUC0-12 ?18.99 mg*h/L had a higher risk of developing aGVHD [odds ratio (OR) = 2.63 (1.17 to 5.87), P = 0.06]. The benefit was more in matched transplant recipients [OR = 3.5 (1.30 to 9.49), P = 0.05] as compared to haploindentical transplant [OR = 2.8 (0.49 to 15.91), P = NS]. Using the mathematical equations, the observed AUC0-12 was predicted with 92.31% accuracy in the BD subset and 100% accuracy in the TID subset for a combined accuracy of 94.76%. A set of just three samples that constituted the abbreviated AUC1-4 was used to develop the predictive models. The LSS could be employed for the therapeutic monitoring of MMF particularly in patients undergoing matched hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Project description:Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is major cause of morbidity and mortality following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Ixazomib is an oral, second-generation, proteasome inhibitor that has been shown in preclinical models to prevent GVHD. We conducted a phase I/II trial in 57 patients to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ixazomib administration for cGVHD prophylaxis in patients undergoing allogeneic HCT. Oral ixazomib was administered on a weekly basis for a total of 4 doses, beginning days +60 through +90, to recipients of matched related donor (MRD, n = 25) or matched unrelated donor (MUD, n = 26) allogeneic HCT in phase II portion of the study, once the recommended phase II dose of 4 mg was identified in phase I (n = 6). All patients received peripheral blood graft and standard GVHD prophylaxis of tacrolimus and methotrexate. Ixazomib administration was safe and well tolerated, with thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, gastrointestinal complaints, and fatigue the most common adverse events (>10%). In phase II (n = 51), the cumulative incidence of cGVHD at 1 year was 36% (95% confidence interval [CI], 19% to 54%) in the MRD cohort and 39% (95% CI, 21% to 56%) in the MUD cohort. One-year cumulative incidence of nonrelapse mortality (NRM) and relapse was 0% and 20% (95% CI, 8% to 36%) in the MRD cohort, respectively. In the MUD cohort, the respective NRM and relapse rates were 4% (0% to 16%) and 34% (17% to 52%). The outcomes on the study were compared post hoc with contemporaneous matched Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) controls. This post hoc analysis showed no significant improvement in cGVHD rates in both the MRD (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.85, P = .64) or MUD cohorts (HR = 0.68, P = .26) on the study compared with CIBMTR controls. B cell activating factor plasma levels were significantly higher after ixazomib dosing in those who remained cGVHD free compared with those developed cGVHD. This study shows that the novel strategy of short-course oral ixazomib following allogeneic HCT is safe but did not demonstrate significant improvement in cGVHD incidence in recipients of MRD and MUD transplantation compared with matched CIBMTR controls. This study is registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02250300.
