[PMID: 33155133 PMCID: PMC7644392 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-020-03031-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2020] [Revised: 10/02/2020] [Accepted: 10/27/2020] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
A liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method for the analysis of ten kinase inhibitors (afatinib, axitinib, bosutinib, cabozantinib, dabrafenib, lenvatinib, nilotinib, osimertinib, ruxolitinib, and trametinib) in human serum and plasma for the application in daily clinical routine has been developed and validated according to the US Food and Drug Administration and European Medicines Agency validation guidelines for bioanalytical methods. After protein precipitation of plasma samples with acetonitrile, chromatographic separation was performed at ambient temperature using a Waters XBridge® Phenyl 3.5 μm (2.1 × 50 mm) column. The mobile phases consisted of water-methanol (9:1, v/v) with 10 mM ammonium bicarbonate as phase A and methanol-water (9:1, v/v) with 10 mM ammonium bicarbonate as phase B. Gradient elution was applied at a flow rate of 400 μL/min. Analytes were detected and quantified using multiple reaction monitoring in electrospray ionization positive mode. Stable isotopically labeled compounds of each kinase inhibitor were used as internal standards. The acquisition time was 7.0 min per run. All analytes and internal standards eluted within 3.0 min. The calibration curves were linear over the range of 2–500 ng/mL for afatinib, axitinib, bosutinib, lenvatinib, ruxolitinib, and trametinib, and 6–1500 ng/mL for cabozantinib, dabrafenib, nilotinib, and osimertinib (coefficients of correlation ≥ 0.99). Validation assays for accuracy and precision, matrix effect, recovery, carryover, and stability were appropriate according to regulatory agencies. The rapid and sensitive assay ensures high throughput and was successfully applied to monitor concentrations of kinase inhibitors in patients. Graphical abstract ![]()

Abstract
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is defined by the presence of Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) which results from a reciprocal translocation between chromosomes 9 and 22 [t(9;22] that gives rise to a BCR-ABL1 fusion gene. CML occurs in 3 different phases (chronic, accelerated, and blast phase) and is usually diagnosed in the chronic phase. Tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy is a highly effective first-line treatment option for all patients with newly diagnosed chronic phase CML. This manuscript discusses the recommendations outlined in the NCCN Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of patients with chronic phase CML.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Validated genomic biomarkers for oncological drugs are expanding to improve targeted therapies. Pharmacogenetics research focusing on the mechanisms underlying imatinib suboptimal response might help to explain the different treatment outcomes and drug safety profiles. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether polymorphisms in genes encoding cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and ABCB1 transporter affect imatinib pharmacokinetic parameters. METHODS A prospective, multicenter, pharmacogenetic pilot study was performed in the context of two separate oral imatinib bioequivalence clinical trials, which included 26 healthy volunteers. DNA was extracted in order to analyze polymorphisms in genes CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4, CYP3A5 and ABCB1. Imatinib plasma concentrations were measured by HPLC-MS/MS. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by non-compartmental methods using WinNonlin software. RESULTS Volunteers (n = 26; aged 24 ± 3 years; 69% male) presented regular pharmacokinetic imatinib data (concentration at 24 h, 436 ± 140 ng/mL and at 72 h, 40 ± 26 ng/mL; AUC0-72 32,868 ± 10,713 ng/mL⋅h; and Cmax 2074 ± 604 ng/mL). CYP2B6 516GT carriers showed a significant reduction of imatinib concentration at 24 h (23%, 391 ng/dL vs 511 ng/dL in 516GG carriers, p = 0.005) and elimination half-life (11%, 12.6 h vs 14.1 h in 516GG carriers, p = 0.041). Carriers for CYP3A4 (*22/*22, *1/*20 and *1/*22 variants) showed a reduced frequency of adverse events compared to *1/*1 carriers (0 vs 64%, p = 0.033). The other polymorphisms analyzed did not influence pharmacokinetics or drug toxicity. CONCLUSION CYP2B6 G516T and CYP3A4 *20,*22 polymorphisms could influence imatinib plasma concentrations and safety profile, after single-dose administration to healthy subjects. This finding needs to be confirmed before it is implemented in clinical practice in oncological patients under treatment with imatinib.

Abstract
Imatinib mesylate (IM) is highly efficacious in the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Therapeutic drug monitoring and pharmacogenetic screening are affirmed for better management of IM therapy. The goal of this study was to gain a greater mechanistic understanding of the factors controlling variability in IM level and its relation to the response. One hundred and two patients with CML at chronic phase were recruited in this study. Blood samples were withdrawn at least 30 days after drug administration, and trough and peak concentrations of imatinib, N-des-methyl imatinib, and pyridine-N-oxide imatinib were determined by HPLC/MS/MS. Genetic polymorphism of the genes ABCG2 SNPs 34 G>A and 421C >A; ABCB1 SNPs 2677 G>A/T, 1236 C>T, 3435 C>T; SLCO1B3 SNPs 334 T>G and CYP3A5 were studied using PCR-RFLP technique. Our study presented significant higher trough IM (1,281 ± 578 ng/ml), lower Peak/Trough ratio, clearance (Cl), and elimination rate constant, ke, among patients who achieved favorable responses (N = 64) than those for patients who suffered unfavorable response (N = 37). The P/T ratio was the only significant independent factor affecting response, as the P/T ratio increased by one, the risk of unfavorable response increased by more than double as compared to favorable response with 95% CI (1.28-3.92, P = 00.005). Moreover, like the results of IM, the trough concentration of Pyridine-N-oxide imatinib was significantly higher (P = 0.01) and its P/T ratio was significantly lower (P = 0.008) in patients achieved favorable response than those without. The wild GG genotype of the ABCG2.34 G>A gene was associated with favorable response (P = 0.01), lower Cl, Ke and high plasma IM trough level than both (AA+GA) genotypes. ABCG2.421C >A (CC) genotype had a significantly higher plasma peak of IM, N-des-methyl imatinib and higher Css. The GG and TG alleles of the SLCO1B3.334 T>G gene were significantly correlated to favorable response, while the wild allele TT was linked to unfavorable response (P = 0.03). In conclusion, the trough and P/ T ratio for both IM and Pyridine-N-oxide imatinib, in addition to Polymorphism of ABCG2 SNPs 34 G>A and SLCO1B3.334 T>G gene, is a good predictor for response of IM in CML Egyptian patients.

Abstract
Objectives Among Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) patients treated with Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI-imatinib-nilotinib), some showed a suboptimal response. Based on pharmacokinetic studies, TKI trough level ( C m i n ∞ ${C}_{min}\hat{\infty }$ ) is associated with clinical outcomes, reflected by the BCR-ABL ratio. However, the interindividual pharmacokinetic variability of imatinib and nilotinib is found to be moderate-high. This study aims to analyze the relationship between TKI C m i n ∞ ${C}_{min}\hat{\infty }$ and BCL-ABL ratio in chronic-phase CML patients. Methods Cross-sectional study to CML chronic-phase patients treated with imatinib 400 mg daily or nilotinib 400 or 800 mg daily for ≥12 months. The exclusion criteria were therapy discontinuation within 29 days (imatinib) or 8 days (nilotinib) before the sampling day. Blood samples were drawn 1 h before the next dose. Imatinib-nilotinib C m i n ∞ ${C}_{min}\hat{\infty }$ and BCR-ABL ratio were measured using HPLC and RT-qPCR. The relationship was analyzed using bivariate correlation Spearman's rho test. Results Twenty-three imatinib and 11 nilotinib patients met the inclusion criteria. The mean imatinib and nilotinib C m i n ∞ ${C}_{min}\hat{\infty }$ were 1,065.46 ± 765.71 and 1,445 ± 1,010.35 ng/mL respectively. There were large interindividual variations in both groups (71.87% vs. 69.88%). Half of the patients in each group were found to reach C m i n ∞ ${C}_{min}\hat{\infty }$ target (≥1.000 ng/mL, imatinib; ≥800 ng/mL nilotinib), but only 12 (35,29%) of them result in BCR-ABL ratio ≤0.1%. C m i n ∞ ${C}_{min}\hat{\infty }$ imatinib was found to be significantly associated with BCR-ABL ratio. But, not with the nilotinib group. Conclusions There were high interindividual variations of imatinib and nilotinib correlated with BCR-ABL ratio, but no correlation in nilotinib.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Imatinib is one of the first-line therapies for chronic myeloid leukemia. Achieving a major molecular response early in treatment, as indicated by a BCR-ABL1 major international scale result of ≤0.1% within 6 months, is associated with better patient outcomes and is statistically associated with a trough imatinib concentration of approximately 1000 ng/mL. Adherence to therapy, drug resistance, drug-drug interactions, and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic factors may hinder attaining this target. Therapeutic drug monitoring of imatinib is not currently standard-of-care, but may help to evaluate adherence and optimize treatment of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. This study aimed to evaluate imatinib concentrations in real-world patient plasma samples to identify the proportion of imatinib-treated patients who achieved the therapeutic target of 1000 ng/mL. METHODS This was a retrospective, observational study that measured imatinib in residual plasma samples used for BCR-ABL1 tests (n = 1022) and analyzed clinician-ordered imatinib tests for therapeutic drug monitoring (n = 116). Imatinib was measured by competitive immunoassay. The frequency of imatinib concentrations achieving the therapeutic target was determined and correlated with BCR-ABL1 major international scale, age, and sex. RESULTS Seventy-two percent of patients tested for BCR-ABL1 may not have been prescribed or were not adherent to imatinib therapy. In the 29% of patients who did not achieve major molecular response, but had quantifiable imatinib concentrations, the therapeutic concentration was not met. For clinician-ordered imatinib tests, 45% of samples did not exceed the therapeutic target and 4% had potentially toxic plasma concentrations (>3000 ng/mL). CONCLUSIONS Therapeutic drug monitoring for imatinib may assist clinicians in the identification of patients who may not be adherent to therapy, display variable pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics, or may be experiencing toxicity or treatment failure.

Abstract
AIM Higher imatinib exposure is correlated with longer time to progression, while the variability in exposure is high. This provides a strong rationale for therapeutic drug monitoring, which has therefore been implemented in routine clinical practice in our institute. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether pharmacokinetically (PK)-guided dose increases are feasible in daily clinical practice and result in an improved exposure (Cmin≥1100 ng/mL) and longer progression-free survival (PFS). METHODS This retrospective study included all patients with a gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) in the Netherlands Cancer Institute who started imatinib treatment at a dose of 400 mg and of whom PK plasma samples were available. Of these patients, minimum plasma concentrations (Cmin) of imatinib, frequency and successfulness of PK-guided dose increases and PFS in the palliative treatment setting were analysed. RESULTS In total, 169 consecutive patients were included, of whom 1402 PK samples were collected. In 126 patients (75%), Cmin was below the efficacy threshold of 1100 ng/mL. In 78 of these patients (62%), a PK-guided dose increase was performed, which was successful in 49 patients (63%). PFS was similar in patients with and without imatinib dose increase. However, due to the small number of patients with progressive disease, no definite conclusions on the effect on PFS could yet be drawn. CONCLUSION This is the largest cohort evaluating PK-guided dose increases of imatinib in patients with GIST in routine clinical practice and demonstrating its feasibility. PK-guided dose increases should be applied to optimise exposure in the significant subset of patients with a low Cmin.

Abstract
A quantification method for imatinib (IM), its major metabolite N-desmethyl imatinib (NDI), and a degradation by-product was developed using CE-MS combined with an online concentration technique. The use of multiple reaction monitoring (MRM)-MS/MS further improved the sensitivity of this technology. Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) using tertiary butyl methyl ether yielded high recovery and reproducibility for the pretreatment of serum samples. The recovery rate exceeded 83% for all three analytes, and was 90% for IM. To improve quantification results, a conductivity-induced online analyte concentration technique, field-amplified sample stacking (FASS), was used. The S/N ratios were improved at least 10-fold when compared with conventional capillary zone electrophoresis. The detection limits were 0.2 ng/mL for IM, 0.4 ng/mL for NDI, and 4 ng/mL for the degradation by-product. These results are superior to those previously obtained by other reported methods. The new method was validated in terms of its selectivity, intra- and interday repeatability and accuracy, and sample storage stability, following the guidelines issued by the European Medicines Agency. Considering the convenient pretreatment procedure (LLE), superior sensitivity, and fast analysis speed (<15 min), this method can be useful in the determination of imatinib levels in blood.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeting the Bcr-Abl oncoprotein revolutionised the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukaemia. Following the success of imatinib, second- and third-generation molecules were developed. Different profiles of kinase inhibition and off-target effects vary between TKIs, which leads to a broad spectrum of potential toxicities.Pulmonary complications are most frequently observed with dasatinib but all other Bcr-Abl TKIs have been implicated. Pleural effusions are the most frequent pulmonary complication of TKIs, usually associated with dasatinib and bosutinib. Pulmonary arterial hypertension is an uncommon but serious complication of dasatinib, which is often reversible upon discontinuation. Bosutinib and ponatinib have also been associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension, while imatinib has not. Rarely, interstitial lung disease has been associated with TKIs, predominantly with imatinib.Mechanistically, dasatinib affects maintenance of normal pulmonary endothelial integrity by generating mitochondrial oxidative stress, inducing endothelial apoptosis and impairing vascular permeability in a dose-dependent manner. The mechanisms underlying other TKI-related complications are largely unknown. Awareness and early diagnosis of the pulmonary complications of Bcr-Abl TKIs is essential given their seriousness, potential reversibility, and impact on future treatment options for the underlying chronic myelogenous leukaemia.

Abstract
Introduction This comprehensive observational study aimed to gain insight into adherence to nilotinib and the effect of (non)adherence on exposure (Cmin) and treatment outcomes. Methods Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients using nilotinib were followed for 12 months. Adherence was measured by Medication Event Monitoring System (MEMS), pill count, and Medication Adherence Report Scale (MARS-5). Nilotinib Cmin and patient-reported outcomes (i.e., quality of life, side effects, beliefs, satisfaction) were measured at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months. Results Sixty-eight patients (57.5 ± 15.0 years, 49% female) participated. Median adherence to nilotinib (MEMS and pill count) was ≥ 99% and adherence < 90% was rare. Self-reported nonadherence (MARS-5) increased in the first year of treatment to a third of patients. In line with the strong beliefs in the necessity of taking nilotinib, forgetting to take a dose was more prevalent than intentionally adjusting/skipping doses. Nilotinib Cmin were generally above the therapeutic target in 95% of patients. Patients reported a variety of side effects, of which fatigue was most frequent. The mean Cmin was higher in patients who reported severe itching and fatigue. The overall 1-year MMR rate ranged from 47 to 71%. Conclusion Substantial nonadherence (< 90%) to nilotinib was rare and nilotinib Cmin were generally above the therapeutic target. Lack of response in our group of patients was not related to nonadherence or inadequate Cmin. Nevertheless, a considerable number of patients experienced difficulties in adhering to the twice daily fasted dosing regimen, emphasizing the importance of continuous support of medication adherence in CML.

Abstract
One of the key challenges in current cancer research is the development of computational strategies to support clinicians in the identification of successful personalized treatments. Control theory might be an effective approach to this end, as proven by the long-established application to therapy design and testing. In this respect, we here introduce the Control Theory for Therapy Design (CT4TD) framework, which employs optimal control theory on patient-specific pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) models, to deliver optimized therapeutic strategies. The definition of personalized PK/PD models allows to explicitly consider the physiological heterogeneity of individuals and to adapt the therapy accordingly, as opposed to standard clinical practices. CT4TD can be used in two distinct scenarios. At the time of the diagnosis, CT4TD allows to set optimized personalized administration strategies, aimed at reaching selected target drug concentrations, while minimizing the costs in terms of toxicity and adverse effects. Moreover, if longitudinal data on patients under treatment are available, our approach allows to adjust the ongoing therapy, by relying on simplified models of cancer population dynamics, with the goal of minimizing or controlling the tumor burden. CT4TD is highly scalable, as it employs the efficient dCRAB/RedCRAB optimization algorithm, and the results are robust, as proven by extensive tests on synthetic data. Furthermore, the theoretical framework is general, and it might be applied to any therapy for which a PK/PD model can be estimated, and for any kind of administration and cost. As a proof of principle, we present the application of CT4TD to Imatinib administration in Chronic Myeloid leukemia, in which we adopt a simplified model of cancer population dynamics. In particular, we show that the optimized therapeutic strategies are diversified among patients, and display improvements with respect to the current standard regime.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tyrosine kinase inhibitors markedly improve the survival for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). However, a decrease in adherence leads to undesired therapeutic outcomes. In this study, the relationships among adherence, pharmacokinetics, response, and adverse effects for dasatinib treatment were prospectively investigated. METHODS This study was a prospective cohort study of patients with newly diagnosed CML at 4 general hospitals and 1 university hospital. Patients started to receive dasatinib 100 mg once daily. A Medication Event Monitoring System was used to assess medication adherence and the medication possession ratio during the 12 months. Plasma concentrations of dasatinib were measured using liquid chromatograph-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and therapy responses were assessed at 3, 6, and 12 months after treatment. RESULTS Ten patients were included. An extremely high medication adherence for dasatinib was observed; the median medication possession ratio was 99.4%. All 9 CML patients with breakpoints in the major BCR-ABL achieved major molecular response (MMR; major BCR-ABL transcript level below 0.1% on the International Scale) within 12 months, and 5 achieved MMR within 6 months. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the cutoff value for the dasatinib area under the concentration-time curve was 336.1 ng × h/mL (accuracy 88.9%, sensitivity 80.0%, specificity 100%, and receiver operating characteristic curve-area under the concentration-time curve 0.800) for achieving MMR within 6 months. Two patients had interrupted dasatinib treatment because of pleural effusion and diarrhea with intestinal edema, respectively. These edematous adverse events developed after plasma dasatinib Cmin surpassed 3.0 ng/mL. CONCLUSIONS A Medication Event Monitoring System was applied for the direct evaluation of oral dasatinib adherence for the first time, and the clinical effect of dasatinib was investigated under the strict monitoring of patient adherence. Although this study had a small sample size, the plasma concentration monitoring of dasatinib is considered to be useful to predict an earlier molecular response with fewer edematous adverse events.

Abstract
Pharmacometric methods have hugely benefited from progress in analytical and computer sciences during the past decades, and play nowadays a central role in the clinical development of new medicinal drugs. It is time that these methods translate into patient care through therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), due to become a mainstay of precision medicine no less than genomic approaches to control variability in drug response and improve the efficacy and safety of treatments. In this review, we make the case for structuring TDM development along five generic questions: 1) Is the concerned drug a candidate to TDM? 2) What is the normal range for the drug's concentration? 3) What is the therapeutic target for the drug's concentration? 4) How to adjust the dosage of the drug to drive concentrations close to target? 5) Does evidence support the usefulness of TDM for this drug? We exemplify this approach through an overview of our development of the TDM of imatinib, the very first targeted anticancer agent. We express our position that a similar story shall apply to other drugs in this class, as well as to a wide range of treatments critical for the control of various life-threatening conditions. Despite hurdles that still jeopardize progress in TDM, there is no doubt that upcoming technological advances will shape and foster many innovative therapeutic monitoring methods.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are anti‐cancer drugs that target tyrosine kinases, enzymes that are involved in multiple cellular processes. Currently, multiple oral TKIs have been introduced in the treatment of solid tumours, all administered in a fixed dose, although large interpatient pharmacokinetic (PK) variability is described. For imatinib, sunitinib and pazopanib exposure‐treatment outcome (efficacy and toxicity) relationships have been established and therapeutic windows have been defined, therefore dose optimization based on the measured blood concentration, called therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), can be valuable in increasing efficacy and reducing the toxicity of these drugs. In this review, an overview of the current knowledge on TDM guided individualized dosing of imatinib, sunitinib and pazopanib for the treatment of solid tumours is presented. We summarize preclinical and clinical data that have defined thresholds for efficacy and toxicity. Furthermore, PK models and factors that influence the PK of these drugs which partly explain the interpatient PK variability are summarized. Finally, pharmacological interventions that have been performed to optimize plasma concentrations are described. Based on current literature, we advise which methods should be used to optimize exposure to imatinib, sunitinib and pazopanib.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this review, we have summarized the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and adverse effects of imatinib, dasatinib, nilotinib, bosutinib, ponatinib and radotinib with focus on pharmacogenomic studies with clinical end points. We have discussed the key phase 3 trials of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) comparing with each other, treatment free remission (TFR) and selection of TKI. Upcoming concepts and related trials in the management of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) along with future directions have been touched upon. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION PubMed, Embase, Google, Cochrane library and Medline were searched to identify relevant literature for the review. Clinicaltrial.gov was searched for upcoming data and trials. RESULTS There are lot of gap in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of TKI. Imatinib appears to be the safest TKI. Newer TKI's achieve better achievement of therapeutic milestones, deeper molecular response and less chances of progression of CML compared to imatinib. Newer TKI appears to be better choice for achieving TFR. When the objective is survival, imatinib is still the TKI of choice. Primary prophylaxis with antiplatelet drugs for TKI having cardiovascular and thromboembolic side effects should be considered. CONCLUSION Pharmacogenetic data of TKI is still immature to guide in therapeutic decision making in clinical practice. There is need for further research in pharmacology and pharmacogenomics of newer TKI's. Randomized controlled trials are required to decide the optimum TKI for TFR. Safe and effective TKI for targeting T315I mutation, CML accelerated phase and blast crisis are an active area of research.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the correlation between plasma trough level of generic imatinib and its metabolism and clinical outcomes in Chinese patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) . Methods: The 21 patients with CML-CP who enrolled in a clinical trial YMTN 1.0 from Oct 11(th), 2012 to May 8(th), 2013 and received generic imatinib were as study subjects. The correlation between steady plasma trough levels of imatinib and its metabolism with clinical response, age, weight and body surface area (BSA) were evaluated. Results: ①The mean steady plasma trough level of generic imatinib and its metabolism was (1 185.07±417.91) μg/L and (251.53±76.50) μg/L, respectively. ②Age, weight and BSA has no significant effects on plasma trough level of generic imatinib and its metabolism (P>0.05) . ③Patients with steady plasma trough level of generic imatinib more than 1 000 μg/L are possible to have higher major molecular response (MMR) /complete molecular response (CMR) rate than those below 1 000 μg/L (42% vs 0, P<0.05) . Conclusion: Plasma trough levels of generic imatinib varied in CML patients. The steady plasma trough levels of generic imatinib is maybe related to molecular response in CML patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study examined the utility of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of imatinib, nilotinib, and dasatinib in adult patients with chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). TDM in CML entails the measurement of plasma tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) concentration to predict efficacy and tolerability outcomes and to aid in clinical decision making. TDM was to be deemed useful if it could be used for predicting the effectiveness of a drug and/or the occurrence of adverse reactions. It was expected that the findings from the present study would allow for the definition of a therapeutic range of each TKI. METHODS A systematic review of studies reporting trough TKI levels (Cmin) and clinical outcomes was performed. We included randomized clinical trials, nonrandomized controlled studies, interrupted time series studies, and case series studies that provided information about plasma levels of imatinib, nilotinib, or dasatinib and relevant clinical end points in adult patients with chronic-phase CML treated with the corresponding TKI as the single antiproliferative therapy. Meta-analyses, Student t tests, and receiver operating characteristic analyses were performed to detect mean differences between groups of patients with or without: (1) the achievement of major molecular response and (2) adverse reactions. FINDINGS A total of 38 studies (28 for imatinib, 7 for nilotinib, and 3 for dasatinib) were included in the systematic review. TDM was found useful in predicting the efficacy of imatinib, with a Cmin cutoff value of 1000 ng/mL, consistent with guideline recommendations. We suggest a therapeutic range of imatinib at a Cmin of 1000-1500 ng/mL because higher concentrations did not increase efficacy. The findings from the rest of the comparisons were inconclusive. IMPLICATIONS TDM is useful in predicting the efficacy of imatinib in CML. Further research is needed to determine its validity with nilotinib and dasatinib.

The Lysosomal Sequestration of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors and Drug Resistance. Biomolecules 2019; 9:biom9110675. [PMID: 31683643 PMCID: PMC6921012 DOI: 10.3390/biom9110675] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2019] [Revised: 10/17/2019] [Accepted: 10/24/2019] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
The Lysosomal sequestration of weak-base anticancer drugs is one putative mechanism for resistance to chemotherapy but it has never been directly proven. We addressed the question of whether the lysosomal sequestration of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) itself contributes to the drug resistance in vitro. Our analysis indicates that lysosomal sequestration of an anticancer drug can significantly reduce the concentration at target sites, only when it simultaneously decreases its extracellular concentration due to equilibrium, since uncharged forms of weak-base drugs freely diffuse across cellular membranes. Even though the studied TKIs, including imatinib, nilotinib, and dasatinib, were extensively accumulated in the lysosomes of cancer cells, their sequestration was insufficient to substantially reduce the extracellular drug concentration. Lysosomal accumulation of TKIs also failed to affect the Bcr-Abl signaling. Cell pre-treatment with sunitinib significantly enhanced the lysosomal accumulation of the TKIs used; however, without apparent lysosomal biogenesis. Importantly, even increased lysosomal sequestration of TKIs neither decreased their extracellular concentrations nor affected the sensitivity of Bcr-Abl to TKIs. In conclusion, our results clearly show that the lysosomal sequestration of TKIs failed to change their concentrations at target sites, and thus, can hardly contribute to drug resistance in vitro.

Imatinib revives the therapeutic potential of metformin on ewing sarcoma by attenuating tumor hypoxic response and inhibiting convergent signaling pathways. Cancer Lett 2019; 469:195-206. [PMID: 31672491 DOI: 10.1016/j.canlet.2019.10.034] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2019] [Revised: 09/30/2019] [Accepted: 10/21/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Ewing sarcoma (EwS) is an aggressive pediatric tumor treated with intensive cytotoxic chemotherapies. Overall survival for metastatic or relapsed disease is only 20-30%. Metformin has long been an attractive therapeutic option for EwS, but hypoxia limits its efficacy. Through a systematic integration of drug combination screening, bioinformatics analyses, functional and in vivo studies, and correlation with clinical outcome, we identified another known drug, imatinib that could augment the in vivo anti-tumor capacity of metformin by attenuating tumor hypoxic response. This drug combination regimen widely suppressed multiple dominant mechanisms in EwS genesis, growth, and metastasis, including key EWS-FLI1 downstream targets that converge into the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. In addition, the combination significantly enhanced inhibition on tumor cell proliferation by standard EwS chemotherapy drugs, including cyclophosphamide and ifosfamide. This suggests a potential clinical benefit of the metformin/imatinib combination by allowing the reduction in dose intensity of standard chemotherapy without compromising survival outcome and represents a potential faster track application for EwS patients.

Abstract
Afatinib (AFT) is a potent and highly selective drug used to treat various solid tumors including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). To ensure safe and effective treatment of cancer patients with AFT, its plasma concentrations should be monitored. Thus, sensitive immunoassays are required for measuring AFT concentrations in plasma samples. In this study, two different formats of heterogeneous fluorescent immunoassays were developed and validated for AFT bioanalysis. These assays were microwell-based fluorescence immunoassay (FIA) using fluorescence plate reader and kinetic exclusion assay (KinExA) using KinExA 3200 immunosensor. Both FIA and KinExA were developed using the same reagents: mouse anti-AFT antibody, solid-phase immobilized AFT conjugated with bovine serum albumin protein (AFT-BSA), and goat anti-mouse IgG labelled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC-IgG) for signal generation. The analytical performances of both assays were comparatively evaluated, and the results revealed that although both assays had comparable accuracies, KinExA was superior to FIA in terms of sensitivity and precisions. Moreover, both FIA and KinExA were better alternatives to the existing chromatographic methods for bioanalysis of AFT. The proposed FIA and KinExA are anticipated to effectively contribute in ensuring safe and effective treatment with AFT in clinical settings.

Abstract
Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a malignancy of the myeloid cell lineage characterized by a recurrent chromosomal abnormality: the Philadelphia chromosome, which results from the reciprocal translocation of the chromosomes 9 and 22. The Philadelphia chromosome contains a fusion gene called BCR-ABL1. The BCR-ABL1 codes for an aberrantly functioning tyrosine kinase that drives the malignant proliferation of the founding clone. The advent of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) represents a landmark in the treatment of CML, that has led to tremendous improvement in the remission and survival rates. Since the introduction of imatinib, the first TKI, several other TKI have been approved that further broadened the arsenal against CML. Patients treated with TKIs require sensitive monitoring of BCR-ABL1 transcripts with quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCT), which has become an essential part of managing patients with CML. In this review, we discuss the importance of the BCR-ABL1 assay, and we highlight the growing importance of BCR-ABL1 dynamics. We also introduce a mathematical correction for the BCR-ABL1 assay that could help homogenizing the use of the ABL1 as a control gene. Finally, we discuss the growing body of evidence concerning treatment-free remission. Along with the continuous improvement in the therapeutic arsenal against CML, the molecular monitoring of CML represents the avant-garde in the struggle to make CML a curable disease.

Abstract
In the development process for new drugs, dose‐finding studies are of major importance. Absence of these studies may lead to failed phase 3 trials and delayed marketing authorization. In our study we investigated to what extent dose‐finding studies are performed in the case of orphan drugs for metabolic and oncologic indications. We identified all orphan drugs that were authorized until August 1, 2017. European Public Assessment Reports were used to extract the final dose used in the summary of product characteristics, involvement of healthy volunteers, study type, end points used, number of patients, number of doses, studies in special populations, and dose used for phase 3 studies. Each drug was checked for major objections and dose changes postmarketing. We included 49 orphan drugs, of which 28 were indicated for metabolic disorders and 21 for oncologic indications. Dose‐finding studies were performed in 32 orphan drugs, and studies in healthy volunteers in 26. The absence of dose‐finding studies was mostly due to the rarity of the disease. In this case the dose was determined based on factors such as animal studies or clinical experience. Dose‐related major objections were raised for 9 orphan drugs. Postmarketing dose‐finding studies were conducted in 18 orphan drugs, but dose changes were applied in only 2 drugs. In conclusion, dose‐finding studies in the case of metabolic and oncologic orphan drugs were conducted in the development programs of two thirds of orphan drugs. Dose‐finding studies performed postmarketing suggest that registered doses are not always optimal. It is thus important to perform more robust dose‐finding studies both pre‐ and postmarketing.

Abstract
AIM To support the therapeutic drug monitoring of afatinib (AFT), an ELISA was required. RESULTS A hapten for AFT was prepared and linked to each of BSA and KLH proteins by diazotization/coupling reaction. A polyclonal antibody recognizing AFT with high affinity (IC50 = 40 ng ml-1) was generated and used in the development of a competitive ELISA for quantitation of AFT in plasma samples. The assay limit of detection was 2 ng ml-1. The assay accuracy and precision were proved. CONCLUSION The assay is an appropriate alternative to the existing LC-MS/MS assays for AFT and it is anticipated to effectively contribute to the therapeutic drug monitoring of AFT in clinical settings.

Abstract
Therapeutic drug monitoring of imatinib in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is an ongoing debate. We studied the influence of imatinib trough levels on therapeutic response in 206 newly diagnosed patients with CML. We also compared the drug levels in patients taking branded and generic imatinib. Imatinib levels were measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Marked inter-individual variability was seen in imatinib levels (coefficient of variation = 69%). Trough levels were significantly higher in patients who attained complete cytogenetic response than those who did not (2213.9 ± 1101 vs. 1648.6 ± 1403.4ng/mL; p < .001). Patients with major molecular response (MMR) had higher trough levels than those without MMR (2333.4 ± 1112 vs. 1643.4 ± 1383.9ng/mL; p = .001). Patients with trough levels ≤1000ng/mL were at high risk for failure of imatinib therapy [RR =1.926; 95%CI (1.562, 2.374); p < .001]. Trough levels emerged as an independent predictor of imatinib response in multivariate analysis. To conclude, imatinib trough levels significantly influence cytogenetic and molecular response and might emerge as a potential biomarker for therapeutic response in CML.

Abstract
A total of 156 patients (age range 1.3-18.0 years, median 13.2 years; 91 (58.3%) male) with newly diagnosed CML (N = 146 chronic phase (CML-CP), N = 3 accelerated phase (CML-AP), N = 7 blastic phase (CML-BP)) received imatinib up-front (300, 400, 500 mg/m2, respectively) within a prospective phase III trial. Therapy response, progression-free survival, causes of treatment failure, and side effects were analyzed in 148 children and adolescents with complete data. Event-free survival rate by 18 months for patients in CML-CP (median follow-up time 25 months, range: 1-120) was 97% (95% CI, 94.2-99.9%). According to the 2006 ELN-criteria complete hematologic response by month 3, complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) by month 12, and major molecular response (MMR) by month 18 were achieved in 98, 63, and 59% of the patients, respectively. By month 36, 86% of the patients achieved CCyR and 74% achieved MMR. Thirty-eight patients (27%) experienced imatinib failure because of unsatisfactory response or intolerance (N = 9). In all, 28/148 patients (19%) underwent stem cell transplantation (SCT). In the SCT sub-cohort 2/23 patients diagnosed in CML-CP, 0/1 in CML-AP, and 2/4 in CML-BP, respectively, died of relapse (N = 3) or SCT-related complications (N = 2). This large pediatric trial extends and confirms data from smaller series that first-line imatinib in children is highly effective.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim was to investigate the relationships between total sunitinib plasma concentrations (sunitinib plus its active metabolite; N-desethyl sunitinib) and clinical outcomes in Japanese patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). METHODS Twenty patients with mRCC were enrolled following treatment with sunitinib. To assess safety, the total sunitinib concentration range up to discontinuation of treatment and dosage reduction associated with adverse events within 6 weeks from initiating administration were analyzed. The longest administered sunitinib dosage was defined as the maintenance dose, and the relationship between total sunitinib concentration at the maintenance dosage and sunitinib efficacy was investigated. RESULTS Total sunitinib concentration was significantly higher in patients who discontinued treatment or had dosage reduction due to adverse events within 6 weeks after initiation of sunitinib than in patients who continued treatment with the initial dosage. The time to treatment failure, progression-free survival, and overall survival were better in patients with total sunitinib concentrations < 50 ng/mL than in those with concentrations ≥ 50 ng/mL. CONCLUSIONS The present study demonstrated that the effective range of total sunitinib concentration in Japanese patients with mRCC was lower than 50-100 ng/mL which was previously reported. These results indicate that therapeutic drug monitoring could maintain the therapeutic effect of sunitinib while minimizing adverse events by personalizing sunitinib dosages for Japanese patients with mRCC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This multicenter cooperative study aimed to analyze the adverse events (AEs) associated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) used as initial treatment for chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML-CP) and their impact on outcome. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 450 patients with CML-CP who received TKIs between 2004 and 2014. RESULTS The 5-year overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) rates were 95.1% and 89.0%, respectively. Patients with comorbidities (46.4%) and aged ≥60 years (50.4%) at diagnosis had significantly inferior OS to those without comorbidities and aged <60. Patients achieved higher rates of major molecular response (MMR) at 6 and 12 months after initial treatment with dasatinib or nilotinib compared to imatinib, but final MMR rates were almost the same. Sixty-six percent of patients required treatment modifications from first-line TKI therapy; the main reasons were AEs (48.4%) and failure (18%). Grade III-IV AEs in first-line TKI therapy were significantly correlated to inferior OS/EFS compared to grade 0-II AEs. CONCLUSION Although long-term outcomes were similar in CML-CP patients treated with each TKI regardless of first-line TKI selection, severe AEs in first-line TKI therapy decreased their survival rates. Early change in TKIs is recommended, when faced with severe AEs of specific TKIs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The standard dose of imatinib for the treatment of chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is 400 mg·d. A predose plasma imatinib concentration of >1 mg·L is associated with improved clinical response. This study aimed to assess the plasma imatinib and norimatinib concentrations attained in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia administered standard doses of imatinib adjusted for dose, age, sex, body weight, and response. METHODS We evaluated data from a cohort of patients treated between 2008 and 2014 with respect to dose, age, sex, body weight, and response. RESULTS The study comprised 438 samples from 93 patients (54 male, 39 female). The median imatinib dose was 400 mg·d in men and in women. The plasma imatinib concentration ranged 0.1-5.0 mg·L and was below 1 mg·L in 20% and 16% of samples from men and women, respectively. The mean dose normalized plasma imatinib and norimatinib concentrations were significantly higher in women in comparison with men. This was partially related to body weight. Mixed effects ordinal logistic regression showed no evidence of an association between sex and plasma imatinib (P = 0.13). However, there was evidence of an association between sex and plasma norimatinib, with higher norimatinib concentrations more likely in women than in men (P = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Imatinib therapeutic drug monitoring only provides information on dosage adequacy and on short-term adherence; longer-term adherence cannot be assessed. However, this analysis revealed that approximately 1 in 5 samples had a plasma imatinib concentration <1 mg·L, which was suggestive of inadequate dosage and/or poor adherence and posed a risk of treatment failure. Higher imatinib exposure in women may be a factor in the increased rate of long-term, stable, deep molecular response (undetectable breakpoint cluster-Abelson (BCR-ABL) transcript levels with a PCR sensitivity of 4.5 log, MR4.5) reported in women.

Determination of a radotinib dosage regimen based on dose-response relationships for the treatment of newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia. Cancer Med 2018; 7:1766-1773.

Abstract
Radotinib is a second-generation BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CP-CML). Here, using the data from a Phase 3 study conducted in patients with newly diagnosed CP-CML, the dose-efficacy as well as dose-safety relationship analyses were performed to determine a safe and effective initial dosage regimen of radotinib. A significant positive association was detected between the starting dose of radotinib adjusted for body weight (Dose/BW) and the probability of dose-limiting toxicity (≥grade 3 hematologic and nonhematologic toxicity) (P = 0.003). In contrast, a significant inverse association was discovered between Dose/BW and the probability of major molecular response (BCR-ABL1/ABL1 ≤ 0.1%) when controlled for sex (P = 0.033). Moreover, frequent dose interruptions and reductions secondary to radotinib toxicities occurred in the Phase 3 study, resulting in nearly half (44%) of patients receiving a reduced dose at a 12-month follow-up. In conclusion, the results of this study demonstrate the need for initial radotinib dose attenuation to improve the long-term efficacy and safety of radotinib. Hence, the authors suggest a new upfront radotinib dose of 400 mg once daily be tested in patients with newly diagnosed CP-CML.

Abstract
Although nilotinib has improved efficacy compared to imatinib, suboptimal response and intolerable adverse events (AEs) limit its effectiveness in many patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP). We investigated the 2-year efficacy and safety of nilotinib and their relationships with plasma nilotinib concentrations (PNCs). In this open-label, multi-institutional phase 4 study, 110 Philadelphia chromosome-positive CML-CP patients were treated with nilotinib at a starting dose of 300 mg twice daily. Molecular responses (MRs) and AEs were monitored for up to 24 months. The 24-month cumulative MR4.5 rate was evaluated as the primary endpoint. Plasma samples were collected from 94 patients to determine PNCs, and the per-patient mean was used to categorize them into four mean PNC (MPNC) groups. Cumulative MR rates and safety were compared between groups. With a median follow-up of 22.2 months, the 24-month cumulative MR4.5 rate was 56.2% (95% confidence interval, 44.0%-8.3%), and the median time to MR4.5 was 23.3 months. There were no significant differences in the cumulative rates of major molecular response, MR4 , and MR4.5 between MPNC groups. One patient died due to acute viral hepatitis, and two developed hematological or cytogenetic relapse, while no progression to accelerated or blast phase was observed. Safety results were consistent with previous studies with no new safety signal identified. Across the MPNC groups, there was no significant linear trend in the frequency of AEs. Nilotinib is highly effective for the treatment of CML-CP with manageable AEs. The measurement of PNC has no predictive value for patient outcomes and is thus not found to be clinically useful. This study is registered with clinicaltrials.gov, Number NCT03332511.

Cancer Med 2018; 7:317-324. [PMID: 29316372 PMCID: PMC5806097 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.1286] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2017] [Revised: 11/15/2017] [Accepted: 11/18/2017] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Imatinib at 400 mg daily is the standard treatment for patients affected with CML and GIST. The intervariability in plasma concentration is very significant. In many reports, a good therapeutic effect is attributed to an adequate concentration of Imatinib. However, few studies have been conducted to investigate the association between plasma concentration and side effects. Besides, no upper concentration limit of Imatinib plasma concentration detection has been established. The correlation of Imatinib trough concentrations (Cmin ) with adverse effects (AEs) was described here. Plasma samples were obtained from patients after 3 months treatment with Imatinib (steady state, n = 122). Liquid chromatography/ tandem mass spectrometry was used to determine the concentration of Imatinib and its metabolite NDI. The incidence of myelosuppression was increased significantly with the increased Imatinib trough plasma concentration. The plasma level of Imatinib and NDI in patients who developed myelosuppression are 1698.3 ± 598.6 ng/mL and 242.1 ng/mL, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in patients who did not (1327.2 ± 623.4 ng/mL, P = 1.75 × 10-4 ; 206.3 ng/mL, P = 0.006). Estimated exposure thresholds of Imatinib and NDI were 1451.6 ng/mL with ROCAUC (95%CI) of 0.693 (0.597-0.789) and 207.1 ng/mL with ROCAUC (95%CI) of 0.646 (0.546-0.745), respectively. Multivariate regression confirmed the correlation of Imatinib Cmin with myelosuppression. Other side effects such as fluid retention and rash were not found to be correlated with Imatinib concentrations. These results suggest that trough concentration of Imatinib should be taken into consideration to increase the safety of Imatinib therapy in GIST patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We propose a simple, sensitive, and fast high-performance liquid chromatography ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV) method for the quantitative determination of bosutinib in human plasma. METHODS Plasma samples were processed using an Oasis hydrophilic-lipophilic balance extraction cartridge (1 mL, 30 mg). Bosutinib and the internal standard imatinib were separated using a mobile phase of 0.5% Na2 PO4 H2 O (pH 3.5)-acetonitrile-methanol (55:25:20, v/v/v) on a CAPCELL PAK C18 MG II reversed-phase column 250 nm×4.6 nm i.d., at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min, with ultraviolet detection at 250 nm. RESULTS The calibration curve exhibited linearity over the bosutinib concentration range of 25-1500 ng/mL at 250 nm, with coefficient of variation for intraday precision of 2.42%, 6.04%, and 1.11% for 100, 250, and 1500 ng/mL, respectively, of bosutinib. The lower limit of detection was 20 ng/mL. The extraction recovery rates for bosutinib ranged from 84.36% to 85.82%. The intra- and interday precision was below 8.7%, and the accuracy ranged from -5.95% to 5.85% over the linear range. No notable matrix effects or astaticism were observed. CONCLUSION The proposed HPLC-UV method was successfully applied as an assay to detect bosutinib in human plasma.

Abstract
Imatinib mesylate and the newer BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors are the standard therapy for chronic myeloid leukemia. Although these are remarkably effective drugs, some mechanisms of resistance have been identified including drug-to-drug interactions. Here we present the case of a chronic myeloid leukemia patient with an inadequate response to imatinib due to concurrent phenytoin administration. Conspicuously low imatinib plasma trough levels were documented. Imatinib dose was increased from 400 to 800 mg with good response. In conclusion, drug-to-drug interactions should be ruled out in cases of resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment. Potent inducers of cytochrome P450 isoenzyme CYP3A4, as phenytoin, could induce inadequate responses due to increased imatinib clearance and low imatinib trough plasma levels. Thus, this interaction should be avoided. When this is not possible, dose escalation of imatinib and measurement of plasma levels, if available, is recommended.

Abstract
Several studies have shown that therapeutic drug monitoring of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) can improve their benefit in cancer. An analytical tool has been developed in order to quantify 17 tyrosine kinase inhibitors and 2 metabolites in human plasma (afatinib, axitinib, bosutinib, crizotinib, dabrafenib, dasatinib, erlotinib, gefitinib, imatinib, lapatinib, nilotinib, ponatinib, regorafenib, regorafenib M2, regorafenib M5, ruxolitinib, sorafenib, sunitinib, vandetanib). Drugs were arranged in four groups, according to their plasma concentration range: 0.1-200ng/ml, 1-200ng/ml, 4-800ng/ml and 25-5000ng/ml. Solid phase extraction was used and separation was performed with HPLC using a gradient system on a solid core particle C18 column (5×2.1mm, 1.6μm). Ions were detected with a triple quadrupole mass spectrometry system. This assay allows rapid determination of 19 TKI in less than 5min per run. This high throughput routine method will be useful to adjust doses of oral anticancer drugs in order to improve treatments efficacy.

Prospective Analysis in GIST Patients on the Role of Alpha-1 Acid Glycoprotein in Imatinib Exposure. Clin Pharmacokinet 2017; 56:305-310.

Abstract
Background For imatinib, a relationship between systemic exposure and clinical outcome has been suggested. Importantly, imatinib concentrations are not stable and decrease over time, for which several mechanisms have been suggested. In this study, we investigated if a decrease in alpha-1 acid glycoprotein (AGP) is the main cause of the lowering in imatinib exposure over time. Methods We prospectively measured imatinib trough concentration (Cmin) values in 28 patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumours, at 1, 3 and 12 months after the start of imatinib treatment. At the same time points, AGP levels were measured. Results Overall, imatinib Cmin and AGP levels were correlated (r2 = 0.656; P < 0.001). However, AGP levels did not fluctuate significantly over time, nor did the change in AGP levels correlate with the change in the imatinib Cmin. Conclusion We showed that systemic AGP levels are not likely to be a key player in the decrease in systemic imatinib exposure over time. As long as intra-individual changes in imatinib exposure remain unexplained, researchers should standardize the sampling times for imatinib in order to be able to assess the clinical applicability of therapeutic drug monitoring.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low trough imatinib concentration (C min) values have been associated with poor clinical outcomes in gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) patients. This study describes the pharmacokinetics of imatinib in a large cohort of GIST patients in routine clinical care. METHODS An observational study was performed in imatinib-treated GIST patients. Patient and tumour characteristics were derived from the Dutch GIST Registry and medical records. Imatinib concentrations were measured by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. The analyses included the occurrence of a low imatinib C min (<1000 µg/L), the change in the C min over time and the correlation between exposure and response. RESULTS In total, 421 plasma samples were available from 108 GIST patients. Most patients (79.6 %) received an imatinib dose of 400 mg. The inter- and intrapatient variabilities in C min were 54 and 23 %, respectively. In the first steady-state sample, 44.4 % of patients presented with C min values <1000 µg/L; 32.4 % of patients had values <1000 µg/L in >75 % of their samples. Only 33.3 % of patients had C min values ≥1000 µg/L in all measured samples. No decrease in C min over time was found (P > 0.05). Fifty-seven (91.9 %) of 62 palliative-treated patients had a tumour response (median C min 1271 µg/L). Five palliative patients (8.1 %) did not respond (median C min 920 µg/L). Given the limited number of non-responders in this cohort, no statistically significant association with clinical benefit could be demonstrated. CONCLUSION In routine clinical care, one third of GIST patients are systematically underexposed with a fixed dose of imatinib. Prospective clinical studies are needed to investigate the value of C min-guided imatinib dosing in GIST patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) imatinib was rationally designed to target BCR-ABL1 which is constitutively activated in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Following the tremendous success in adults, imatinib also became licensed for treatment of CML in minors. The rarity of pediatric CML hampers the conduction of formal trials. Thus, imatinib is still the single TKI approved for CML treatment in childhood. Areas covered: This review attempts to provide an overview of the literature on pharmacology, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacogenetic of imatinib concerning pediatric CML treatment. Articles were identified through a PubMed search and by reviewing abstracts from relevant hematology congresses. Additional information was provided from the authors' libraries and expertise and from our own measurements of imatinib trough plasma levels in children. Pharmacokinetic variables (e.g. alpha 1-acid glycoprotein binding, drug-drug/food-drug interactions via cytochrome P450 3A4/5, cellular uptake mediated via OCT-1-influx variations and P-glycoprotein-mediated drug efflux) still await to be addressed in pediatric patients systematically. Expert commentary: TKI response rates vary among different individuals and pharmacokinetic variables all can influence CML treatment success. Adherence to imatinib intake may be the most prominent factor influencing treatment outcome in teenagers thus pointing towards the potential benefits of regular drug monitoring.

Abstract
BCR-ABL-independent resistance against tyrosine kinase inhibitor is an emerging problem in therapy of chronic myeloid leukemia. Such drug resistance can be linked to dysregulation of ATP-binding cassette (ABC)-transporters leading to increased tyrosine kinase inhibitor efflux, potentially caused by changes in microRNA expression or DNA-methylation. In an in vitro-imatinib-resistance model using K-562 cells, microRNA-212 was found to be dysregulated and inversely correlated to ABC-transporter ABCG2 expression, targeting its 3'-UTR. However, the functional impact on drug sensitivity remained unknown. Therefore, we performed transfection experiments using microRNA-mimics and -inhibitors and investigated their effect on imatinib-susceptibility in sensitive and resistant leukemic cell lines. Under imatinib-treatment, miR-212 inhibition led to enhanced cell viability (p = 0.01), reduced apoptosis (p = 0.01) and cytotoxicity (p = 0.03). These effects were limited to treatment-naïve cells and were not observed in cells, which were resistant to various imatinib-concentrations (0.1 μM to 2 μM). Further analysis in treatment-naïve cells revealed that miR-212 inhibition resulted in ABCG2 upregulation and increased ABCG2-dependent efflux. Furthermore, we observed miR-212 promoter hypermethylation in 0.5 and 2 μM IM-resistant sublines, whereas ABCG2 methylation status was not altered. Taken together, the miR-212/ABCG2-axis influences imatinib-susceptibility contributing to development of imatinib-resistance. Our data reveal new insights into mechanisms initiating imatinib-resistance in leukemic cells.

Phase III Clinical Trial (RERISE study) Results of Efficacy and Safety of Radotinib Compared with Imatinib in Newly Diagnosed Chronic Phase Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. Clin Cancer Res 2017; 23:7180-7188. [PMID: 28939746 DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.ccr-17-0957] [Citation(s) in RCA: 42] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2017] [Revised: 06/27/2017] [Accepted: 09/15/2017] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Purpose: Radotinib is a second-generation BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) approved in Korea for chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML-CP) in patients newly diagnosed or with insufficient response to other TKIs. This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of radotinib as first-line therapy for CML-CP.Experimental Design: This multinational, open-label study assigned patients (1:1:1) to one of two twice-daily radotinib doses, or imatinib daily. The primary endpoint was major molecular response (MMR) by 12 months.Results: Two hundred forty-one patients were randomized to receive radotinib 300 mg (n = 79) or 400 mg twice-daily (n = 81), or imatinib 400 mg daily (n = 81). MMR rates by 12 months were higher in patients receiving radotinib 300 mg (52%) or radotinib 400 mg twice-daily (46%) versus imatinib (30%; P = 0.0044 and P = 0.0342, respectively). Complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) rates by 12 months were higher for radotinib 300 mg (91%) versus imatinib (77%; P = 0.0120). Early molecular response at 3 months occurred in 86% and 87% of patients receiving radotinib 300 mg and radotinib 400 mg, respectively, and 71% of those receiving imatinib. By 12 months, no patients had progression to accelerated phase or blast crisis. Most adverse events were manageable with dose reduction.Conclusions: Radotinib demonstrated superiority over imatinib in CCyR and MMR in patients newly diagnosed with Philadelphia chromosome-positive CML-CP. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT01511289 Clin Cancer Res; 23(23); 7180-8. ©2017 AACR.
