Glasdegib Dimaleate: Synthesis, Characterization and Comparison of Its Properties with Monomaleate Analogue. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14081641. [PMID: 36015269 PMCID: PMC9415664 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14081641] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2022] [Revised: 08/01/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Glasdegib is a recently approved drug for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. It is formulated and marketed in monomaleate salt form. In our investigation, we were able to prepare a glasdegib dimaleate form, which could, in theory, exist in double-salt form or as a mixture of salt and co-crystal species. Therefore, the obtained crystals of glasdegib dimaleate were characterized via 15N ssNMR and single-crystal X-ray diffraction, which revealed that the obtained glasdegib dimaleate exists in double-salt form. This is a surprising finding based on the pKa values for glasdegib and maleic acid. Furthermore, we fully characterized the new dimaleate form using thermal analyses (DSC and TGA) and spectroscopy (IR and Raman). Finally, the physicochemical properties, such as solubility and chemical stability, of both forms were determined and compared.

Pinto-Merino Á, Labrador J, Zubiaur P, Alcaraz R, Herrero MJ, Montesinos P, Abad-Santos F, Saiz-Rodríguez M. Role of Pharmacogenetics in the Treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Systematic Review and Future Perspectives. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14030559. [PMID: 35335935 PMCID: PMC8954545 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14030559] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2022] [Revised: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 02/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by remarkable toxicity and great variability in response to treatment. Plenteous pharmacogenetic studies have already been published for classical therapies, such as cytarabine or anthracyclines, but such studies remain scarce for newer drugs. There is evidence of the relevance of polymorphisms in response to treatment, although most studies have limitations in terms of cohort size or standardization of results. The different responses associated with genetic variability include both increased drug efficacy and toxicity and decreased response or resistance to treatment. A broad pharmacogenetic understanding may be useful in the design of dosing strategies and treatment guidelines. The aim of this study is to perform a review of the available publications and evidence related to the pharmacogenetics of AML, compiling those studies that may be useful in optimizing drug administration.

Early Palliative Care in Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14030478. [PMID: 35158746 PMCID: PMC8833517 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14030478] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2021] [Revised: 01/11/2022] [Accepted: 01/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Several novel targeted therapies seem to improve the outcome of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. Nonetheless, the 5-year survival rate remains below 40%, and the trajectory of the disease remains physically and emotionally challenging, with little time to make relevant decisions. For patients with advanced solid tumors, the integration of early palliative care (EPC) with standard oncologic care a few weeks after diagnosis has demonstrated several benefits. However, this model is underutilized in patients with hematologic malignancies. Methods: In this article, we analyze the palliative care (PC) needs of AML patients, examine the operational aspects of an integrated model, and review the evidence in favor of EPC integration in the AML course. Results: AML patients have a high burden of physical and psychological symptoms and high use of avoidant coping strategies. Emerging studies, including a phase III randomized controlled trial, have reported that EPC is feasible for inpatients and outpatients, improves quality of life (QoL), promotes adaptive coping, reduces psychological symptoms, and enhances the quality of end-of-life care. Conclusions: EPC should become the new standard of care for AML patients. However, this raises issues about the urgent development of adequate programs of education to increase timely access to PC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Genetic variability in anthracycline metabolism could modify the response and safety of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) induction. METHODS Polymorphisms in genes that encodes enzymes of anthracyclines metabolic pathway (CBR3: rs1056892, rs8133052, NQO1: rs1800566, NQO2: rs1143684, NOS3: rs1799983, rs2070744) were evaluated in 225 adult de novo AML patients. RESULTS The variant CBR3 rs8133052 was associated with lower hepatotoxicity (P = 0.028). Wild-type genotype of NQO2 rs1143684 was related to higher complete remission (P = 0.014), and the variant allele with greater gastrointestinal toxicity (P = 0.024). However, the variant genotype of NQO1 rs1800566 was associated with mucositis (P = 0.018), but heterozygous genotype showed less gastrointestinal toxicity (P = 0.028) and thrombocytopenia (P = 0.009). Protective effects against nephrotoxicity and thrombocytopenia were reported with variant NOS3 rs1799983 (P = 0.006, P = 0.014), whereas carriers of NOS3 rs2070744 showed higher hepatotoxicity and thrombocytopenia (P = 0.017, P = 0.013). CONCLUSIONS This study supports the influence of genetic variability of idarubicin metabolizing could be critical in predicting anthracycline-induced toxicities.
