Inhibiting CDK4/6 in Breast Cancer with Palbociclib, Ribociclib, and Abemaciclib: Similarities and Differences.

ABSTRACT: The cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors belong to a new class of drugs that interrupt proliferation of malignant cells by inhibiting progression through the cell cycle. Three such inhibitors, palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib were recently approved for breast cancer treatment in various settings and combination regimens. On the basis of their impressive efficacy, all three CDK4/6 inhibitors now play an important role in the treatment of patients with HR+, HER2- breast cancer; however, their optimal use still needs to be established. The three drugs have many similarities in both pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. However, there are some differences on the basis of which the choice for a particular CDK4/6 inhibitor for an individual patient can be important. In this article, the clinical pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of the three CDK4/6 inhibitors are reviewed and important future directions of the clinical applicability of CDK4/6 inhibitors will be discussed.

Project description:BackgroundTherapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) using cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CDK4/6is) is a novel approach for optimizing treatment outcomes. Currently, palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are the available CDK4/6is and are primarily coadministered with letrozole. This study aimed to develop and validate an LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous analysis of CDK4/6is, 2 active metabolites of abemaciclib (M2 and M20), and letrozole in human plasma for use in TDM studies.MethodsSample pretreatment comprised protein precipitation with methanol and dilution of the supernatant with an aqueous mobile phase. Chromatographic separation was achieved using a reversed-phase XBridge BEH C18 column (2.5 μm, 3.0 × 75 mm XP), with methanol serving as the organic mobile phase and pyrrolidine-pyrrolidinium formate (0.005:0.005 mol/L) buffer (pH 11.3) as the aqueous mobile phase. A triple quadrupole mass spectrometer was used for the detection, with the ESI source switched from negative to positive ionization mode and the acquisition performed in multiple reaction monitoring mode.ResultsThe complete validation procedure was successfully performed in accordance with the latest regulatory guidelines. The following analytical ranges (ng/mL) were established for the tested compounds: 6-300, palbociclib and letrozole; 120-6000, ribociclib; 40-800, abemaciclib; and 20-400, M2 and M20. All results met the acceptance criteria for linearity, accuracy, precision, selectivity, sensitivity, matrix effects, and carryover. A total of 85 patient samples were analyzed, and all measured concentrations were within the validated ranges. The percent difference for the reanalyzed samples ranged from -11.2% to 7.0%.ConclusionsA simple and robust LC-MS/MS method was successfully validated for the simultaneous quantification of CDK4/6is, M2, M20, and letrozole in human plasma. The assay was found to be suitable for measuring steady-state trough concentrations of the analytes in patient samples.
