    Abstract Carboplatin is a frequently used antitumour agent recommended to be administered according to the Calvert formula: dose = AUC x (GFR+25), where GFR is the glomerular filtration rate as measured by (51)Cr-EDTA clearance and AUC is the targeted area under the carboplatin concentration versus time curve. In several modified Calvert formulae, the GFR is estimated on the basis of serum creatinine levels. We compared AUCs of carboplatin that were predicted by modified Calvert formulae with actual measured AUCs in 75 courses in patients with non-small cell lung cancer or ovarian cancer who were treated with the combination of carboplatin-paclitaxel. Predictions were made using two modified Calvert formulae, in which the GFR was calculated by serum creatinine level-based equations, according to Jelliffe (Eq. 1) and Cockroft-Gault (Eq. 2). We also studied the performance of a formula for the clearance of carboplatin, as proposed by Chatelut (Eq. 3). The actual measured mean AUC was 4.6 mg/ml.min (range 1.9 to 10.4 mg/ml.min, SD 1.7). Equation 1 overestimated the AUC by 32.9% with an imprecision of 43.0%, and equation 2 overestimated the AUC by 27.6% with an imprecision of 33.4%. For equation 3, an AUC overestimation of only 10.2%, but with an imprecision of 25.3%, was observed. In conclusion, all three equations overestimated the carboplatin AUCs and had poor precisions. We concluded that the real carboplatin AUCs were lower than calculated, using the three tested formulae. This may have important consequences for ongoing and future phase II and III studies with carboplatin-paclitaxel combinations, utilising these formulae to calculate the carboplatin dose. Thus far, the original Calvert dosage formula remains the 'golden standard'.

    Abstract The non-linear plasma pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel in patients has been well established, however, the exact underlying mechanism remains to be elucidated. We have previously shown that the non-linear plasma pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel in mice results from Cremophor EL. To investigate whether Cremophor EL also plays a role in the non-linear pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel in patients, we have established its pharmacokinetics in patients receiving paclitaxel by 3-, 24- or 96-h intravenous infusion. The pharmacokinetics of Cremophor EL itself was non-linear as the clearance (Cl) in the 3-h schedules was significantly lower than when using the longer 24- or 96-h infusions (Cl175-3 h = 42.8+/-24.9 ml h(-1) m(-2); CI175-24 h = 79.7+/-24.3; P = 0.035 and Cl135-3 h = 44.1+/-21.8 ml h(-1) m(-1); Cl140-96 h = 211.8+/-32.0; P < 0.001). Consequently, the maximum plasma levels were much higher (0.62%) in the 3-h infusions than when using longer infusion durations. By using an in vitro equilibrium assay and determination in plasma ultrafiltrate we have established that the fraction of unbound paclitaxel in plasma is inversely related with the Cremophor EL level. Despite its relatively low molecular weight, no Cremophor EL was found in the ultrafiltrate fraction. Our results strongly suggest that entrapment of paclitaxel in plasma by Cremophor EL, probably by inclusion in micelles, is the cause of the apparent nonlinear plasma pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel. This mechanism of a (pseudo-)non-linearity contrasts previous postulations about saturable distribution and elimination kinetics and means that we must re-evaluate previous assumptions on pharmacokinetics-pharmacodynamics relationships.

    Abstract Purpose: Carboplatin doses are often determined by using modified Calvert formulas. It has been observed that the area under the concentration versus time curve (AUC) for free carboplatin is lower than expected when modified formulas are used for carboplatin/paclitaxel chemotherapy combination regimens. By using limited-sampling models, the carboplatin AUC actually reached can easily be verified, and the dose adjusted accordingly.
    Methods: In this report, we describe the development and validation of a limited-sampling model for carboplatin from 77 pharmacokinetic curves, when carboplatin is used in combination with paclitaxel.
    Results: The following single-point model was selected as optimal: AUC carboplatin (min mg(-1) ml(-1)) = 418. c(2.5 h)(mg/ml) + 0.43 (min mg(-1) ml(-1)), where c(2.5 h) is the concentration (mg/ml) of carboplatin 2.5 h after the start of a 30-min infusion. This model proved to be unbiased (mean prediction error = 3.4 +/- 1.6%) and precise (root mean square error = 10.1 +/- 1.5%).
    Conclusions: The proposed model can be very useful for ongoing and future carboplatin/paclitaxel studies aimed to optimise and individualize treatment.

    Abstract Purpose: To describe the pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel and to investigate the interaction potential with protease inhibitors (indinavir, ritonavir, saquinavir) and the nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor nevirapine, for which strong theoretical indications for clinically relevant drug interactions exist.
    Methods: The 24-h plasma pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel (Taxol, given at 100 mg/m2 by 3-h intravenous infusion) and concomitantly infused antiretroviral drugs were determined in a human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1)-infected male patient with refractory Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) during high-activity antiretroviral therapy and after discontinuation of this regimen. The plasma pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel, indinavir, ritonavir, saquinavir, and nevirapine were closely monitored. Since all these drugs are extensively metabolized via the cytochrome P450 enzyme system and are substrates for the multidrug transporter P-glycoprotein, investigation of drug-drug interactions was considered important.
    Results: In this case report study the pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel given concomitantly with various antiretroviral drugs were comparable with those of historical controls who had been treated with single-agent paclitaxel. The pharmacokinetics of indinavir, ritonavir, saquinavir, and nevirapine were also not statistically significantly different from those recorded for historical controls. Paclitaxel was well tolerated and resulted in a significant clinical response in this patient.
    Conclusion: Dose adjustments of paclitaxel, indinavir, ritonavir, saquinavir, or nevirapine are apparently not needed if HIV-1-associated KS is treated with paclitaxel at a dose of 100 mg/m2 as shown in the present case. It is stressed, however, that controlled studies are necessary to substantiate these preliminary case report findings.

    Abstract Purpose: It has been observed that the area under the free carboplatin concentration in plasma ultrafiltrate versus time curve (AUC) is related to toxicity and tumour response. For this reason, it can be important to measure the carboplatin AUC and subsequently adjust the dose to achieve a predefined target AUC. The use of limited sampling strategies enables relatively simple measurement and calculation of actual carboplatin AUCs.
    Methods: We studied the performance of a limited sampling model, based on a single 24-h sample (the Ghazal-Aswad model). in 52 patients who received carboplatin in two different chemotherapy regimens (a carboplatin-paclitaxel combination and a high-dose carboplatin-thiotepa-cyclophosphamide combination).
    Results: The measured mean AUC in our population was 4.1 min x mg/ml (median 3.9, range 1.9 6.3, SD 1.0 min x mg/ml). With the limited sampling model, the predicted mean AUC was 4.4 min x mg/ml (median 4.2, range 2.4-8.4, SD 1.2 min x mg/ml). Statistical analysis revealed that the model was slightly biased (MPE%, 6.5%), but imprecise (RMSE%, 20.6%) in our study population.
    Conclusion: Although easy and attractive to use, the Ghazal-Aswad formula is not precise enough to predict the carboplatin AUC, and needs to be evaluated prospectively in other patient populations.

    Abstract Paclitaxel (Taxol; Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Princeton, NJ) has been demonstrated to be an active anticancer agent, including in platinum-refractory ovarian cancer. The pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel have been extensively described. It displays nonlinear pharmacokinetics in humans, especially when administered in shorter infusion times and at higher doses. Several relationships have been established between pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. In both animal and human studies, hepatic metabolism and biliary excretion have been identified as the main elimination pathways of paclitaxel. It thus can be expected that hepatic dysfunction will have a major impact on the pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel and its main metabolite 6alpha-hydroxypaclitaxel and, thus, on pharmacodynamic outcome (toxicities and responses). Because patients with an altered hepatic function were excluded from most phase I and II studies conducted thus far, little is known about the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in this group of patients. This report summarizes paclitaxel's metabolism and clinical observations concerning its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in patients with altered hepatic function. It has been shown that hepatic impairment has a great influence on the systemic exposure of paclitaxel and metabolites with pharmacodynamic consequences. A decrease of biliary elimination is probably the major mechanistic effect that influences paclitaxel metabolism and elimination. Specific dosing guidelines in the treatment of patients with altered hepatic function are required.

    Abstract The main purpose of this study was to investigate whether the coadministration of amifostine alters the pharmacokinetic behavior of paclitaxel. Eight patients were included in the study: six received paclitaxel in combination with epirubicin and cisplatin, and two received paclitaxel as a single agent. Doses of paclitaxel in these protocols were 135, 150, 175, and 200 mg/m(2) and two patients were treated at each dose level. Pharmacokinetic sampling for paclitaxel analysis was performed in each patient during two consecutive cycles, one with and one without amifostine (750 mg/m(2) as a 15-minute intravenous infusion 30 minutes before paclitaxel administration). At each dose level, the pharmacokinetic data of paclitaxel were compared per patient for a cycle without amifostine versus a cycle with amifostine. Amifostine did not seem to interact pharmacokinetically with paclitaxel, given either alone or in combination chemotherapy. This is in line with the clinical findings that amifostine has no negative effects on the antitumor activity of various antineoplastic agents. Also, amifostine may reduce toxic effects of combination chemotherapy regimens that include paclitaxel.

    Abstract The purpose of our study was to investigate the pharmacokinetics of Cremophor EL following administration of escalating doses of Taxol (paclitaxel dissolved in Cremophor EL/ethanol) to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Patients with NSCLC stage IIIb or IV without prior chemotherapy treatment were eligible for treatment with paclitaxel and carboplatin in a dose-finding phase I study. The starting dose of paclitaxel was 100 mg/m2 and doses were escalated with steps of 25 mg/m2, which is equal to a starting dose of Cremophor EL of 8.3 ml/m2 with dose increments of 2.1 ml/m2. Carboplatin dosages were 300, 350 or 400 mg/m2. Pharmacokinetic sampling was performed during the first and the second course, and the samples were analyzed using a validated high-performance liquid chromatographic assay. A total of 39 patients were included in this pharmacokinetic part of the study. The doses of paclitaxel were escalated up to 250 mg/m2 (20.8 ml/m2 Cremophor EL). Pharmacokinetic analyses revealed a low elimination-rate of Cremophor EL (CI=37.8-134 ml/h/m2; t 1/2=34.4-61.5 h) and a volume of distribution similar to the volume of the central blood compartment (Vss=4.96-7.85 l). In addition, a dose-independent clearance of Cremophor EL was found indicating linear kinetics. Dose adjustment using the body surface area, however, resulted in a non-linear increase in systemic exposure. The use of body surface area in calculations of Cremophor EL should therefore be re-evaluated.

    Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility of administering topotecan in combination with paclitaxel and cisplatin without and with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) support as first-line chemotherapy in women with incompletely resected stage III and stage IV ovarian carcinoma.
    Patients and methods: Starting doses were paclitaxel 110 mg/m2 administered over 24 hours (day 1), followed by cisplatin 50 mg/m2 over 3 hours (day 2) and topotecan 0.3 mg/m2/d over 30 minutes for 5 consecutive days (days 2 to 6). Treatment was repeated every 3 weeks. After encountering dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) without G-CSF support, the maximum-tolerated dose was defined as 5 microg/kg of G-CSF subcutaneously starting on day 6.
    Results: Twenty-one patients received a total of 116 courses at four different dose levels. The DLT was neutropenia. At the first dose level, all six patients experienced grade 4 myelosuppression. G-CSF support permitted further dose escalation of cisplatin and topotecan. Nonhematologic toxicities, primarily fatigue, nausea/vomiting, and neurosensory neuropathy, were observed but were generally mild. Of 15 patients assessable for response, nine had a complete response, four achieved a partial response, and two had stable disease.
    Conclusion: Neutropenia was the DLT of this combination of paclitaxel, cisplatin, and topotecan. The recommended phase II dose is paclitaxel 110 mg/m2 (day 1), followed by cisplatin 75 mg/m2 (day 2) and topotecan 0.3 mg/m2/d (days 2 to 6) with G-CSF support repeated every 3 weeks.
