Abstract
Background Anti-HER2 therapy has evolved in the last years and an important role in this transformation was that of monoclonal antibodies and tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Considering their extended use in clinical practice, some toxicity problems have been highlighted around these drugs. Objective To analyze the onset of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) related to the use of HER2-positive breast cancer treatments through a spontaneous reporting system (SRS) database. Methods All ADR reports having as suspected drug trastuzumab, pertuzumab, lapatinib, or trastuzumab emtansine (TDM-1), recorded into the Report Reazioni Avverse dei Medicinali (RAM) system database for national data and into the Italian SRS database for Sicilian data and collected from 2006 to 2020 have been evaluated. A descriptive analysis of basal demographic and drug-related characteristics was performed. A case-by-case methodology was conducted paying particular attention to the serious ADR reports collected in Sicily, focusing on type of seriousness, age, sex, concomitant drugs, comorbidities, time to onset (TTO), and time to resolution (TTR). Results Of the 3609 Italian reports, 65.6% were related to trastuzumab (n = 2367), followed by pertuzumab, TDM-1, and lapatinib. Almost all reports occurred in female patients (94.3%) and were most frequent in the age group 18–65 years (69.6%). A higher number of cases were related to general disorders and administration site conditions (n = 1079; 29.9%), gastrointestinal disorders (n = 1037; 28.7%), skin disorders (n = 821; 22.7%), and blood disorders (n = 599; 16.6%). Cases involving trastuzumab and pertuzumab mainly reported general disorders (n = 788; 33.3% and n = 194; 32.1%, respectively) while more than half of the reports associated with lapatinib were related to gastrointestinal (n = 184; 59.7%) and skin diseases (n = 146; 47.4%). Regarding TDM-1, 40% of reports had at least one ADR belonging to blood and lymphatic system disorders. The case-by-case assessment of Sicilian ADR reports showed that 40 cases were serious (33.3%), with a median TTO of 37 (6–97) days. Serious ADR reports mainly involved the onset of thrombocytopenia (n = 8; 20.0%), diarrhea (n = 6; 15.0%), asthenia and cardiac failure (both with n = 5; 12.5%), vomiting, hypersensitivity, and ejection fraction decreased (all with n = 4; 10.0%) and stomatitis (n = 3: 7.5%). Conclusion This study is fundamentally consistent with results from the literature. Given the serious clinical condition of breast cancer and taking into account the importance of preventing some clinically relevant ADRs related to the use of anti-HER2 therapy, further analyses are essential to better describe the safety profile of these target therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diarrhea is one of the most frequent class adverse events associated with targeted oral antineoplastic agents (OAAs). Our objective was to analyze the incidence, characteristics, and severity of diarrhea in cancer patients in clinical practice. METHODS An observational, longitudinal, and prospective study of cancer outpatients treated with targeted OAAs was carried out in a tertiary hospital. Targed OAAs analyzed were anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitors, BCR-ABL inhibitors, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors, mTOR inhibitors, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors, and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibitors. Patients were given a data collection form to record daily the number, severity (CTCAE version 5.0), and characteristics of stools during the first 30 days of treatment with OAAs. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify risk factors associated with the incidence of diarrhea. RESULTS We analyzed 240 patients, of whom 28.7% experienced diarrhea (25.4% grades 1-2 and 3.3% grades 3-4). Patients treated with EGFR and VEGFR inhibitors had a higher incidence of diarrhea. The multivariate analysis revealed that taking the OAA with food was associated with a lower risk of diarrhea (OR = 0.404 [0.205-0.956], p = 0.038). CONCLUSIONS More than a third of patients in treatment with OAAs presented diarrhea (any grade), and 22.1% of stools were semi-liquid/liquid. In multivariate analysis, taking the OAA on an empty stomach was associated with a statistically significant increase in the incidence of diarrhea.

Overnight fasting before lapatinib administration to breast cancer patients leads to reduced toxicity compared with nighttime dosing: a retrospective cohort study from a randomized clinical trial. Cancer Med 2020; 9:9246-9255. [PMID: 33094919 PMCID: PMC7774723 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.3528] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2020] [Revised: 08/19/2020] [Accepted: 09/24/2020] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The bioavailability of lapatinib is affected by food, even following the 1 hour fast recommended by the package insert. We hypothesized that overnight fasting would minimize food‐drug interactions. Here, we investigated if lapatinib administration timing is associated with its tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics. Methods This is a retrospective cohort study utilizing the medical records of patients enrolled in the JBCRG‐16/Neo‐LaTH randomized phase 2 trial for breast cancer patients treated with lapatinib. Lapatinib administration timing was divided into three groups: before breakfast (BB), between meals (BM), and at bedtime (AB). Side effects (SE), treatment discontinuation rate (TDR), relative dose intensity (RDI), pathological complete response (pCR) rate, and lapatinib serum trough concentration were compared between groups. Results About 140 patients were included in this study: BB 15, BM 51, and AB 74. A reduced risk of diarrhea {adjusted hazard ratio (HR), 0.51, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.27‐0.89, p = 0.018}, and rash {adjusted HR, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.17‐0.70, p = 0.002} was seen in BB versus AB. Fewer patients with low RDI (< 0.85/<0.6) were in the BB group (BB 13% / 0%, BM 22% / 3.9%, AB 24% / 14%, p = 0.70 / 0.11). pCR was not diminished (p = 0.75). BB group had the lowest serum lapatinib concentration and variability (mean ±SD were 0.35 ± 0.15, 0.65 ± 0.32, 0.96 ± 0.43 µg/ml). Conclusions Compared to bedtime administration, lapatinib administration after overnight fasting reduces its toxicity without diminishing its therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
Despite advances in the breast cancer treatment, significant variability in patient outcomes remain. This results in significant stress to patients and clinicians. Treatment-specific clinical prediction models allow patients to be matched against historical outcomes of patients with similar characteristics; thereby reducing uncertainty by providing personalised estimates of benefits, harms, and prognosis. To achieve this objective, models need to be clinical-grade with evidence of accuracy, reproducibility, generalizability, and be user-friendly. A structured search was undertaken to identify treatment-specific clinical prediction models for therapeutic or adverse outcomes in breast cancer using clinicopathological data. Significant gaps in the presence of validated models for available treatments was identified, along with gaps in prediction of therapeutic and adverse outcomes. Most models did not have user-friendly tools available. With the aim being to facilitate the selection of the best medicine for a specific patient and shared-decision making, future research will need to address these gaps.

Cancer Chemother Pharmacol 2020; 85:793-803.

Abstract
PURPOSE Lapatinib is a small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor used to treat breast cancer, often in combination with chemotherapy. Diarrhoea commonly occurs in up to 78% of patients undertaking lapatinib treatment. The mechanism of this diarrhoea is currently unknown. Elsiglutide is a GLP-2 analogue known to increase cell proliferation and reduce apoptosis in the intestine. METHODS We used a previously developed rat model of lapatinib-induced diarrhoea to determine if co-treatment with elsiglutide was able to reduce diarrhoea caused by lapatinib. Additionally, we analysed the caecal microbiome of these rats to assess changes in the microbiome due to lapatinib. RESULTS Rats treated with lapatinib and elsiglutide had less severe diarrhoea than rats treated with lapatinib alone. Serum lapatinib levels, blood biochemistry, myeloperoxidase levels and serum limulus amebocyte lysate levels were not significantly different between groups. Rats treated with lapatinib alone had significantly higher histopathological damage in the ileum than vehicle controls. This increase was not seen in rats also receiving elsiglutide. Rats receiving lapatinib alone had lower microbial diversity than rats who also received elsiglutide. CONCLUSIONS Elsiglutide was able to reduce diarrhoea from lapatinib treatment. This does not appear to be via reduction in inflammation or barrier permeability, and may be due to thickening of mucosa, leading to increased surface area for fluid absorption in the distal small intestine. Microbial changes seen in this study require further research to fully elucidate their role in the development of diarrhoea.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical prediction models (CPMs) predict the risk of health outcomes for individual patients. The majority of existing CPMs only harness cross-sectional patient information. Incorporating repeated measurements, such as those stored in electronic health records, into CPMs may provide an opportunity to enhance their performance. However, the number and complexity of methodological approaches available could make it difficult for researchers to explore this opportunity. Our objective was to review the literature and summarise existing approaches for harnessing repeated measurements of predictor variables in CPMs, primarily to make this field more accessible for applied researchers. METHODS MEDLINE, Embase and Web of Science were searched for articles reporting the development of a multivariable CPM for individual-level prediction of future binary or time-to-event outcomes and modelling repeated measurements of at least one predictor. Information was extracted on the following: the methodology used, its specific aim, reported advantages and limitations, and software available to apply the method. RESULTS The search revealed 217 relevant articles. Seven methodological frameworks were identified: time-dependent covariate modelling, generalised estimating equations, landmark analysis, two-stage modelling, joint-modelling, trajectory classification and machine learning. Each of these frameworks satisfies at least one of three aims: to better represent the predictor-outcome relationship over time, to infer a covariate value at a pre-specified time and to account for the effect of covariate change. CONCLUSIONS The applicability of identified methods depends on the motivation for including longitudinal information and the method's compatibility with the clinical context and available patient data, for both model development and risk estimation in practice.

Abstract
Purpose Diarrhea is recognized as a common adverse event associated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), with those targeting the ErbB family of receptors being associated with the highest rate of diarrhea. Methods This paper reviews data on the incidence, timing, and duration of diarrhea associated with US Food and Drug Administration-approved ErbB family-targeted TKIs from the published literature, and sets forth recommendations for management. Results In the absence of anti-diarrheal prophylaxis the incidence of any-grade diarrhea varies and typically occurs early during the course of treatment. Although it is difficult to determine if the incidence and severity of diarrhea is related to inhibition of a particular kinase target because of the multi-targeted and overlapping activity of many agents, evidence suggests that second-generation TKIs with broader target profiles (i.e., afatinib, lapatinib, neratinib) result in a higher incidence of diarrhea compared with highly specific first- (erlotinib, gefitinib) or third- (osimertinib) generation agents. The mechanisms responsible for TKI-associated diarrhea are not fully understood and are likely multi-factorial, involving dysregulated ion transport, inflammation, and mucosal injury. Management strategies have been developed—and continue to be refined—to prevent and reduce the severity and duration of TKI-associated diarrhea. For agents associated with more significant symptoms, anti-diarrheal prophylaxis reduces the incidence and severity of diarrhea, and ongoing studies are evaluating specific strategies to further reduce incidence and duration of TKI-associated diarrhea. Conclusions Continued investigations into risk factors and pharmacogenomic markers for diarrhea may further improve management of this common toxicity.

Abstract
Lapatinib and capecitabine have been widely used in the therapy of breast cancer. However, long-term use of lapatinib and capecitabine often causes the most common side effect diarrhea, which limit the medicine use. Fructus mume (F. mume) has been proved to be effective to treat chronic diarrhea with few side effects. The compounds from F. mume were extracted by using an ethanol method. Extracts of F. mume (EFM) were analyzed by HPLC. We investigated the protective effects of EFM on the diarrhea caused by lapatinib and capecitabine. From March 1st, 2016 to June 1st, 2017, 208 breast cancer patients with diarrhea caused by lapatinib and capecitabine were recruited. The patients were evenly assigned into two groups: EG group (the patients took 100 mg EFM daily) and CG group (the patients took placebo daily). The effects of EFM on diarrhea and gastrointestinal symptoms were measured by a semiquantitative method seven-point Likert scale. Overall quality of life was measured by SF-36 questionnaire and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). The HPLC analysis showed that there were three components in EFM, including citric acid, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), and chlorogenic acid. Breast cancer types were observed by using Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stain. The breast cancer can be divided into leaflet, gland and fibroblast types. Patient age, skin metastases, treatment, and grade 1 diarrhea were significant risk factors associated with for grade 2 diarrhea. EFM reduced diarrhea and gastrointestinal symptoms by reducing the average scores of the diarrhea symptom and seven-point Likert scale, and improved life quality of patients significantly by improving SF-36 scores and reducing HADS scores when compared to that in the CG group after 6-week therapy and further 4-week follow-up (P < 0.05). EFM may be a potential choice for the diarrhea therapy in breast cancer patients.

Abstract
Neratinib following the completion of trastuzumab has been shown to reduce the risk of disease recurrence for patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer in whom extended adjuvant therapy seems advisable. In clinical trials, the most common side effect of neratinib and other anti-HER2 therapies was diarrhea. Presenters at JADPRO Live clarified the findings of trials studying the benefit of differing prophylactic regimens with loperamide, budesonide, and colestipol.

J Med Internet Res 2016; 18:e275. [PMID: 27751985 PMCID: PMC5088341 DOI: 10.2196/jmir.6307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2016] [Revised: 08/23/2016] [Accepted: 09/24/2016] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Mobile phone‒based real-time ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) have been used to record health risk behaviors, and antecedents to those behaviors, as they occur in near real time. Objective The objective of this study was to determine if intensive longitudinal data, collected via mobile phone, could be used to identify imminent risk for smoking lapse among socioeconomically disadvantaged smokers seeking smoking cessation treatment. Methods Participants were recruited into a randomized controlled smoking cessation trial at an urban safety-net hospital tobacco cessation clinic. All participants completed in-person EMAs on mobile phones provided by the study. The presence of six commonly cited lapse risk variables (ie, urge to smoke, stress, recent alcohol consumption, interaction with someone smoking, cessation motivation, and cigarette availability) collected during 2152 prompted or self-initiated postcessation EMAs was examined to determine whether the number of lapse risk factors was greater when lapse was imminent (ie, within 4 hours) than when lapse was not imminent. Various strategies were used to weight variables in efforts to improve the predictive utility of the lapse risk estimator. Results Participants (N=92) were mostly female (52/92, 57%), minority (65/92, 71%), 51.9 (SD 7.4) years old, and smoked 18.0 (SD 8.5) cigarettes per day. EMA data indicated significantly higher urges (P=.01), stress (P=.002), alcohol consumption (P<.001), interaction with someone smoking (P<.001), and lower cessation motivation (P=.03) within 4 hours of the first lapse compared with EMAs collected when lapse was not imminent. Further, the total number of lapse risk factors present within 4 hours of lapse (mean 2.43, SD 1.37) was significantly higher than the number of lapse risk factors present during periods when lapse was not imminent (mean 1.35, SD 1.04), P<.001. Overall, 62% (32/52) of all participants who lapsed completed at least one EMA wherein they reported ≥3 lapse risk factors within 4 hours of their first lapse. Differentially weighting lapse risk variables resulted in an improved risk estimator (weighted area=0.76 vs unweighted area=0.72, P<.004). Specifically, 80% (42/52) of all participants who lapsed had at least one EMA with a lapse risk score above the cut-off within 4 hours of their first lapse. Conclusions Real-time estimation of smoking lapse risk is feasible and may pave the way for development of mobile phone‒based smoking cessation treatments that automatically tailor treatment content in real time based on presence of specific lapse triggers. Interventions that identify risk for lapse and automatically deliver tailored messages or other treatment components in real time could offer effective, low cost, and highly disseminable treatments to individuals who do not have access to other more standard cessation treatments.

Abstract
Aim: We performed a meta-analysis of S-1-containing regimens versus control in the management of locally advanced/metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer. Methodology: Eligible studies included randomized studies evaluating S-1-containing regimens in the settings of locally advanced, first-line metastatic or second-line metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer. Results: Pooled odds ratio for overall response rate was 1.09 (95% CI: 0.85–1.38; p = 0.2), the pooled hazard ratio for progression-free survival was 0.98 (95% CI: 0.88–1.09; p = 0.69) and the pooled hazard ratio for overall survival was 0.98 (95% CI: 0.88–1.10; p = 0.75) for S-1-based regimens versus control. Moreover, the relative risk of febrile neutropenia was 0.34 (95% CI: 0.20–0.59; p = 0.0001). Conclusion: Our meta-analysis has demonstrated that S-1-based regimens are associated with similar efficacy outcomes and better hematological tolerability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We performed a meta-analysis of the risk of oral and gastrointestinal (GI) mucosal injury associated with S-1-based regimens. PATIENTS AND METHODS Randomized phase II and III trials of patients with solid tumors on S-1; describing events of all-grade and high-grade stomatitis and diarrhea constituted the eligible studies. RESULTS After exclusion of ineligible studies, a total of 26 clinical trials were considered eligible for the meta-analysis. The odds ratio (OR) of all-grade and high-grade stomatitis for S-1 vs. non-fluoropyrimidine controls was 4.39 [95% CI: 1.05, 18.37; p = 0.04] and 5.64 [95% CI: 1.46, 21.77; p = 0.01], respectively; while the OR of all-grade and high-grade stomatitis for S-1 vs. infusional 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) control was -1.01 [95% CI: 0.22, 4.63; p = 0.99] and 0.32 [95% CI: 0.20, 0.49; p < 0.00001], respectively. The OR of all-grade and high-grade diarrhea for S-1 vs. non-fluoropyrimidine controls was 2.48 [95% CI: 2.12, 2.90; p < 0.00001] and 1.95 [95% CI: 1.29, 2.96; p = 0.002], respectively; while the OR of all-grade and high-grade diarrhea for S-1 vs. infusional 5-FU control was -1.03 [95% CI: 0.87, 1.22; p = 0.76] and 2.52 [95% CI: 1.80, 3.52; p < 0.00001], respectively. CONCLUSIONS Compared to non-fluoropyrimidine control, patients treated with S-1-based regimens have an increased risk of all-grade and high-grade stomatitis and diarrhea; while on the other hand, patients treated with infusional 5-FU have a greater risk of high-grade stomatitis and diarrhea compared to patients treated with S-1-based regimens.
