“…Mitotane, a key drug for the treatment of adrenal cortical carcinoma (ACC), has a narrow therapeutic window between 14 and 20 μg/mL; therefore, it is desirable to routinely perform therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). Although several quantitative methods for enantiomers and major metabolites of mitotane have been developed (Cantillana, Lindström, Eriksson, Brandt, & Bergman, ; Inouye, Mio, & Sumino, ), the lack of antitumor effects of a major metabolite, 1,1‐( o , p '‐dichlorodiphenyl) acetic acid, was recently demonstrated (Hescot et al, ), suggesting the low importance of TDM of these compounds compared to mitotane. Therefore, a simplified and rapid quantitative method for TDM of mitotane is clinically desired, compared to those of metabolites and chiral bodies.…”
