Ibrutinib pharmacokinetics in B-lymphoproliferative disorders discloses exposure-related incidence of hypertension
Résumé
Methods: In the study reported here, the incidence of AE was recorded in 92 patients with B-LPD (mostly chronic lymphocytic leukemia n ¼ 79) for whom ibrutinib alone was proposed as fist line therapy. Moreover, a pharmacokinetics (PK) exploration was planned over one day after 1 month treatment. PK assays included drug and metabolite (DHD-ibrutinib) mean/median and maximal plasmatic concentrations as well as areas under the curve (AUE) data.
Results: This PK evaluation was analyzed regarding AEs recorded over the first year of therapy, which were similar as in published reports. PK data disclosed a significant impact of ibrutinib exposure on infections but mostly on the occurrence of hypertension. The latter was mostly related to dihydrodiol-ibrutinib (DHD-ibrutinib) exposure.
Conclusions: These data suggest that a DHD-ibrutinib assay after one month of treatment could be interesting to consider a lower dosage for patients above maximal concentration thresholds for the drug, its metabolite or the sum of both. Whether this can be applied to newer BTKi remains to be explored but it could be important for patients to whom ibrutinib is proposed.
