Description and Modeling of Relevant Demographic and Laboratory Variables in a Large Oncology Cohort to Generate Virtual Populations.

: Pathophysiological variability in patients with cancer is associated with differences in responses to pharmacotherapy. In this work, we aimed to describe the demographic characteristics and hematological, biochemical, and coagulation variables in a large oncology cohort and to develop, optimize, and provide open access to modeling equations for the estimation of variables potentially relevant in pharmacokinetic modeling. : Using data from 1793 patients with cancer, divided into training ( = 1259) and validation ( = 534) datasets, a modeling network was developed and used to simulate virtual oncology populations.

Pharmacokinetics and Safety of Lurbinectedin Administrated with Itraconazole in Cancer Patients: A Drug-Drug Interaction Study.

This open-label, two-part, phase Ib drug-drug interaction study investigated whether the pharmacokinetic (PK) and safety profiles of lurbinectedin (LRB), a marine-derived drug, are affected by co-administration of itraconazole (ITZ), a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor, in adult patients with advanced solid tumors. In Part A, three patients were sequentially assigned to Sequence 1 (LRB 0.8 mg/m, 1-h intravenous [IV] + ITZ 200 mg/day oral in Cycle 1 [C1] and LRB alone 3.

Impact of a Moderate CYP3A4 Inducer (Bosentan) on Lurbinectedin Pharmacokinetics and Safety in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors: An Open-Label, Two-Way, Crossover, Phase Ib Drug-Drug Interaction Study.

This open-label, two-way, crossover, phase Ib drug-drug interaction study investigated whether the pharmacokinetics (PKs) and safety profile of lurbinectedin (LRB) are affected by co-administration of a moderate CYP3A4 inducer (bosentan, BOS) in adult patients with advanced solid tumors. Eleven patients were randomly assigned to Sequence 1 (LRB + BOS in Cycle 1 [C1] and LRB alone in Cycle 2 [C2]) or Sequence 2 (LRB alone in C1 and LRB + BOS in C2), and finally, eight patients (four per sequence) were considered evaluable for PK assessment. LRB (3.

A model-based head-to-head comparison of single-agent lurbinectedin in the pivotal ATLANTIS Study.

Introduction: Lurbinectedin is a selective inhibitor of oncogenic transcription U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved for patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC) as monotherapy at 3.

Anti-cancer drug combinations approved by US FDA from 2011 to 2021: main design features of clinical trials and role of pharmacokinetics.

During the last decade, the treatment for many cancer indications has evolved due to intensive clinical research into anti-tumor agents' combination. In most instances, new combination treatments consist of an add-on to the standard of care (SOC), which then demonstrate a substantial gain in efficacy and no detrimental effect in tolerability. In the era of targeted therapies, for which maximum tolerated dose (MTD)-based dosing strategies are no longer applicable, early stage studies exploring new combinations are often conducted in the population of interest, expediting the collection of preliminary safety data, to be promptly expanded to collect preliminary efficacy data.
