Abstract
BACKGROUND Rabbit antithymocyte globulins (rATGs) are polyclonal antibodies used to prevent acute cellular rejection in kidney transplantation. Their dosing remains largely empirical and the question of an individualized dose is still unresolved. METHODS Data from a prospective study in 17 kidney transplant patients were used to develop a model describing the dose-concentration-response relationship of rATG with T-lymphocyte subpopulation counts over time. The model was validated using an independent cohort of kidney transplant patients treated by rATG in the same center. RESULTS Pharmacokinetics of rATG was described using a two-compartment model integrating a third compartment and a target-mediated elimination for active rATG. The kinetics of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, and CD3-CD56+ cell counts over time were described by a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model with transit compartments, integrating both CD3-CD56+-independent and CD3-CD56+-dependent rATG-mediated lymphocyte depletion, and a positive feedback. Elimination of rATG was influenced by age and body surface area, while its distribution was also influenced by body surface area. CD3+ proliferation rate decreased with age and CD3-CD56+-mediated elimination was influenced by the V158F-FCGR3A polymorphism. Binary efficacy and tolerance endpoints were defined as a CD3+ count < 20 mm-3 for at least 7 days and a CD4+ count > 200 mm-3 at 1 year, respectively. Simulations showed that increasing or decreasing the standard 6-mg/kg dose will impact both tolerance and efficacy, while a dose decrease may be beneficial in elderly patients. CONCLUSIONS Our results can be used to design prospective clinical trials testing dose individualization based on patients' characteristics. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION Eudract No. 2009-012673-35.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Myelosuppression is a dose-limiting toxicity of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Predicting the inter- and intra-patient variability in pharmacokinetics and toxicities of 5-FU may contribute to the individualized medicine. This study aimed to establish a population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model that could evaluate the inter- and intra-individual variability in the plasma 5-FU concentration, 5-FU-induced body weight loss and myelosuppression in rats. METHOD Plasma 5-FU concentrations, body weight loss, and blood cell counts in rats following the intravenous administration of various doses of 5-FU for 4 days were used to develop the population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model. RESULTS The population pharmacokinetic model consisting of a two-compartment model with Michaelis-Menten elimination kinetics successfully characterized the individual and population predictions of the plasma concentration of 5-FU and provided credible parameter estimates. The estimates of inter-individual variability in maximal rate of saturable metabolism and residual variability were 8.1 and 22.0%, respectively. The population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model adequately described the individual complete time-course of alterations in body weight loss, erythrocyte, leukocyte, and lymphocyte counts in rats treated with various doses of 5-FU. The inter-individual variability of the drug effects in the pharmacodynamic model for body weight loss was 82.6%, which was relatively high. The results of the present study suggest that not only individual fluctuations in the 5-FU concentration but also the cell sensitivity would affect the onset and degree of 5-FU-induced toxicity. CONCLUSION This population pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model could evaluate the inter- and intra-individual variability in drug-induced toxicity and guide the assessments of novel anticancer agents in drug development.

Abstract
Evofosfamide (TH-302) is a hypoxia-activated prodrug of the cytotoxin bromo-isophosphoramide. In hypoxic conditions Br-IPM is released and alkylates DNA. Ifosfamide is a chloro-isophosphoramide prodrug activated by hepatic Cytochrome P450 enzymes. Both compounds are used for the treatment of cancer. Ifosfamide has been approved by the FDA while evofosfamide is currently in the late stage of clinical development. The purpose of this study is to compare efficacy and safety profile of evofosfamide and ifosfamide in preclinical non-small cell lung cancer H460 xenograft models. Immunocompetent CD-1 mice and H460 tumor-bearing immunocompromised nude mice were used to investigate the safety profile. The efficacy of evofosfamide or ifosfamide, alone, and in combination with docetaxel or sunitinib was compared in ectopic and intrapleural othortopic H460 xenograft models in animals exposed to ambient air or different oxygen concentration breathing conditions. At an equal body weight loss level, evofosfamide showed greater or comparable efficacy in both ectopic and orthotopic H460 xenograft models. Evofosfamide, but not ifosfamide, exhibited controlled oxygen concentration breathing condition-dependent antitumor activity. However, at an equal body weight loss level, ifosfamide yielded severe hematologic toxicity when compared to evofosfamide, both in monotherapy and in combination with docetaxel. At an equal hematoxicity level, evofosfamide showed superior antitumor activity. These results indicate that evofosfamide shows superior or comparable efficacy and a favorable safety profile when compared to ifosfamide in preclinical human lung carcinoma models. This finding is consistent with multiple clinical trials of evofosfamide as a single agent, or in combination therapy, which demonstrated both anti-tumor activity and safety profile without severe myelosuppression.

Abstract
Combinations of anticancer agents may have synergistic anti-tumor effects, but enhanced hematological toxicity often limit their clinical use. We examined whether "microarray profiles" could be used to compare early molecular responses following a single dose of agents administered individually with that of the agents administered in a combination. We compared the mRNA responses within bone marrow of Sprague-Dawley rats after a single 30 min treatment with topotecan at 4.7 mg/kg or oxaliplatin at 15 mg/kg alone to that of sequentially administered combination therapy or vehicle control for 1, 6, and 24 h. We also examined the histopathology of the bone marrow following all treatments. Drug-related histopathological lesions were limited to bone marrow hypocellularity for animals dosed with either agent alone or in combination. Lesions had an earlier onset and higher incidence for animals given topotecan alone or in combination with oxaliplatin. Severity increased from mild to moderate when topotecan was administered prior to oxaliplatin compared with administering oxaliplatin first. Notably, six patterns of co-expressed genes were detected at the 1 h time point that indicate regulatory expression of genes that are dependent on the order of the administration. These results suggest alterations in histone biology, chromatin remodeling, DNA repair, bone regeneration, and respiratory and oxidative phosphorylation are among the prominent pathways modulated in bone marrow from animals treated with an oxaliplatin/topotecan combination. These data also demonstrate the potential for early mRNA patterns derived from target organs of toxicity to inform toxicological risk and molecular mechanisms for agents given in combination.

Abstract
1. The aim of this study was to develop a simple pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) model that could characterize the complete time-course of alterations in platelet counts to predict the onset and degree of thrombocytopenia, which severely limits the use of the anticancer agent 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), in rats. 2. Platelet counts were measured in rats following the intravenous administration of various doses of 5-FU for 4 days to obtain data for an analysis of the PK-PD model. Our PK-PD model consisted of a two-compartment PK model, with three compartments for the PD model and 10 structural PK-PD model parameters. 3. After the 5-FU treatment, platelet counts transiently decreased to a nadir level, showed a rebound to above the baseline level before recovering to baseline levels. Nadir platelet counts and rebounds varied with the AUC0-∞ level. The final PK-PD model effectively characterized platelet count data and final PD parameters were estimated with high certainty. 4. This PK-PD model and simulation may represent a valuable tool for quantifying and predicting the complete time-course of alterations in blood cell counts, and could contribute to the development of therapeutic strategies with 5-FU and assessments of various novel anticancer agents that are difficult to examine in humans.

Abstract
Abstract
The aim of the present work was to describe the antiproliferative effect of camptothecin (CPT), topotecan (TPT) and cisplatin (CIS) in cultured cells using a semi-mechanistic pharmacodynamic approach. This effect on the growth of DHD-K12PROb cells was modelled as a function of drug concentration and time of exposure using the Gompertz framework. Models reflected two major processes: cell proliferation and cell death/degradation. Antiproliferative effect of CPT and TPT was described as inhibition of cell proliferation, while the effect of CIS was described as stimulation of cell death, including a signal transduction process, reflected as a delay in the onset of drug action. The half-life associated with such a transduction process was estimated to be approximately 27 h. Interestingly, the time profiles of the model predicted a signal transduction process that closely resembled the observed profiles of caspase-3, a protein implicated in CIS-mediated apoptosis. Therefore, the combination of a simple and sensitive design, together with an appropriated modelling strategy, allowed us to explore different mechanisms of action for antitumour agents in cultured cells and to obtain information about the dynamics of signal transduction and the potential use of biomarkers.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop a semi-physiological-based model describing simultaneously the time course of immature and mature B-lymphocytes after topotecan (TPT) administration to tumor-bearing rats. METHODS Twenty-four tumor-bearing BDIX male rats received a single 6 mg/kg intra-peritoneal dose of TPT or saline. Mature and immature B-cell levels were measured every two days during three weeks and showed a very different temporal pattern. Both B-cell populations declined rapidly, reaching the nadir at 3-4 days after TPT administration; however, mature cells returned to baseline at day 8, while immature B-cells stayed at nadir until day 9 instead. Data were modeled using the population approach with NONMEM VI. RESULTS The model developed maintains the proliferation, maturation and degradation elements of previous published models for myelosuppresion. In order to describe the rapid recovery of mature cells, it includes a peripheral compartment providing a constant supply of mature cells to the bloodstream. CONCLUSIONS The major contribution of the model is its new structure and the dynamical consequences, demonstrating an independent behavior between mature and immature B-cells during recovery. The final model could represent a good basis for the optimization of cytotoxic drugs oriented to attain a maximum antitumor efficacy while minimizing hematological toxicity.

Abstract
Anticancer chemotherapies are responsible for numerous adverse events. Among these, hematological toxicity is one of the main causes for ending treatment. These toxicities decrease production of red blood cells (anemia), production of white blood cells (neutropenia or granulocytopenia), and production of platelets (thrombocytopenia), which may be life-threatening to the patient. Preventing such discontinuation would be valuable for treating patients more effectively. In order to achieve this goal, numerous mathematical and physiological or semiphysiological models have been developed. The complexity of models has increased over the years, from empiric E(max) models to mechanistic models including physiological mechanisms such as feedback control. This review discusses several approaches of modelling hematological toxicities illustrated with some examples: pharmacodynamic models for the hematological toxicity of 5-fluorouracil, epirubicin, melphalan, paclitaxel, topotecan, and indisulam.
