Phase I and pharmacokinetic trial of weekly CPT-11.

Abstract: The MTD for CPT-11 in this patient population was 150 mg/m2/wk when administered on a weekly-times-four schedule repeated every 6 weeks. At dose levels greater than 150 mg/m2/wk, diarrhea is dose-limiting.

“…10 The mean terminal half-life of SN-38 in plasma is longer than that of CPT-11: 11.5 Ϯ 3.8 hours versus 6.3 Ϯ 2.2 hours for the lactone forms. 11 The bioactivation of CPT-11 to SN-38 is believed to take place in the liver. SN-38 is further conjugated to a glucuronide (SN-38G).…”

“…But its usage always be limited by its severe side effects especially diarrhea and myelosuppression which are doselimiting toxicities (Negoro et al, 1991;Rothenberg et al, 1993;Rougier et al, 1998;Saltz et al, 2000;Rothenberg et al, 2001;Vanhoefer et al, 2001;Fuchs et al, 2003). Clinical administration dosage is generally calculated according to the body surface area or weight presently which is the group average dose (Reilly and Workman, 1993).…”

“…Because CPT-11 causes severe diarrhea and neutropenia in 20% to 35% of patients treated (Negoro et al, 1991;Rothenberg, et al, 1993;Rougier et al, 1998;Saltz et al, 2000;Rothenberg et al, 2001;Vanhoefer et al, 2001;Fuchs et al, 2003), and fatal events (up to 5.3% prevalence) during single-agent irinotecan treatment have been reported (Vanhoefer et al, 2001). We associated these two kind side effects with UGT1A1 genotypes, clinic characters and each other to detect the relationship between them by multivariate logistic analysis We took the sex, age, KPS, number of metastasis, history of chemotherapy, UGT1A1 genotype, dosage, leucopenia, neutropenia, primary cancer and pathological type into risk factors.…”

“…Irinotecan (Camptosar ® ; Pfizer Pharmaceuticals; New York, NY, http://www.pfizer.com) is a semisynthetic analogue of camptothecin and requires metabolic activation by carboxylesterase to form the active metabolite 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN-38), which in turn inhibits topoisomerase-I [17]. SN-38 is further detoxified via formation of SN-38 glucuronide (SN38G).…”
