ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The bioavailability of lapatinib is affected by food, even following the 1 hour fast recommended by the package insert. We hypothesized that overnight fasting would minimize food-drug interactions. Here, we investigated if lapatinib administration timing is associated with its tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics.METHODS:
This is a retrospective cohort study utilizing the medical records of patients enrolled in the JBCRG-16/Neo-LaTH randomized phase 2 trial for breast cancer patients treated with lapatinib. Lapatinib administration timing was divided into three groups before breakfast (BB), between meals (BM), and at bedtime (AB). Side effects (SE), treatment discontinuation rate (TDR), relative dose intensity (RDI), pathological complete response (pCR) rate, and lapatinib serum trough concentration were compared between groups.RESULTS:
About 140 patients were included in this study BB 15, BM 51, and AB 74. A reduced risk of diarrhea {adjusted hazard ratio (HR), 0.51, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.27-0.89, p = 0.018}, and rash {adjusted HR, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.17-0.70, p = 0.002} was seen in BB versus AB. Fewer patients with low RDI (< 0.85/<0.6) were in the BB group (BB 13% / 0%, BM 22% / 3.9%, AB 24% / 14%, p = 0.70 / 0.11). pCR was not diminished (p = 0.75). BB group had the lowest serum lapatinib concentration and variability (mean ±SD were 0.35 ± 0.15, 0.65 ± 0.32, 0.96 ± 0.43 µg/ml).CONCLUSIONS:
Compared to bedtime administration, lapatinib administration after overnight fasting reduces its toxicity without diminishing its therapeutic efficacy.Palavras-chave
