The purposes of this study were to identify physiological and genetic factors that contributed to variability of pemetrexed (PEM) exposure and to optimize the dosing regimens for Chinese non-small cell lung carcinoma patients. A prospective population pharmacokinetics (PPK) research was performed in this population. The PEM concentrations of 192 plasma samples from 116 in-hospital patients were detected. All patients were genotyped for polymorphisms. The PPK model of PEM was developed. The pharmacokinetic behavior of PEM was described by a two-compartment model with first-order elimination. The population typical values were as follows: clearance (CL) 8.29 L/h, intercompartmental clearance (Q) 0.10 L/h, central volume of distribution (V1) 18.94 L and peripheral volume of distribution (V2) 5.12 L. Creatinine clearance (CrCl) was identified as a covariate to CL, and ERCC1 (rs3212986) and CYP3A5 (rs776746) gene polymorphisms as covariates to Q. By using empirical body surface area (BSA)-based dosing strategy, PEM exposure decreased with the elevation of CrCl. Contrarily, CrCl-based dosing strategy exhibited a satisfactory efficacy of achieving the target PEM exposure. BSA-based dosing regimen in current clinic practice is not suitable to achieve the target exposure in PEM chemotherapy of Chinese NSCLC patients. Alternatively, renal function-based dosing strategy is suggested. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
