Pharmacokinetic Consideration of Venetoclax in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients: A Potential Candidate for TDM? A Short Communication
THERAPEUTIC DRUG MONITORING(2024)
摘要
Background:Venetoclax (VNX)-based regimens have demonstrated significantly favorable outcomes in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and are now becoming the standard treatment. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors are administered at a fixed dose, irrespective of body surface area or weight. For such orally targeted therapies, real-world data have highlighted a larger pharmacokinetic (PK) interindividual variability (IIV) than expected. Even if VNX PKs have been well characterized and described in the literature, only 1 clinical trial-based PK study has been conducted in patients with AML. This study aimed to evaluate the PK of VNX in AML patients.Material and methods:We retrospectively analyzed all patients treated with a combination of VNX-azacitidine between January and July 2022 at our center, using at least 1 available VNX blood sample. Based on a previously published population PK model, individual PK parameters were estimated to evaluate the exposure and IIV.Results:and Discussion. Twenty patients received VNX in combination with azacitidine, according to the PK data. A total of 93 plasma concentrations were collected. The dose of VNX was 400 mg, except in 7 patients who received concomitant posaconazole (VNX 70 mg). The patients' weight ranged from 49 kg to 108 kg (mean = 78 kg). Mean individual clearance was 13.5 +/- 9.4 L/h with mean individual daily area under the concentration-time curves of 35.8 mg.h/L with significant IIV (coefficient of variation = 41.1%). Ten patients were still alive (8 in complete response), but all experienced at least 1 hematological toxicity of grade >= 3.Conclusions:Based on the observed large PK variability in the data from our real-world AML patients, the risk of drug interactions and the recommended fixed-dosage regimen of VNX therapeutic drug monitoring may be useful.
