The authors used a population pharmacokinetics model to simulate pharmacokinetics of 1200 virtual individuals for each strategy. The observed interpatient variability in mean simulated AUC (CVAUCmean) was compared and was 34% (fixed dosing) versus 29% (bodyweight-based dosing). Based on this, the authors concluded for panitumumab that “body weight-based approach is the recommended patient dosing strategy”. Previously, we assessed feasibility of fixed dosing as an alternative strategy for thirteen Mabs including panitumumab. We concluded that fixed dosing is a more rational approach as pharmacodynamics (efficacy and toxicity) of antagonistic Mabs are not concentration-related at concentrations exceeding the minimum target inhibitory concentration (ICmin). For panitumumab, the estimated threshold is 3.83 μg/mL. The authors compared the CVAUCmean of both dosing strategies. However, because of the ICmin, trough levels (Cmin) would be a better parameter for assessing efficacy of panitumumab. Although the observed Cmin after bodyweight-based dosing is reported (Figure 1 and Discussion), we miss report of simulated Cmin of the fixed dosing schedule. As the lowest interquartile AUC after fixed and bodyweight-based dosing of panitumumab is comparable (987 versus 908 μg*d/ mL, respectively, in Table 2), it is likely that Cmin of the both strategies is comparable (~20–30 μg/mL and »ICmin) and, therefore, both strategies have equivalent efficacy. The reported difference in CVAUCmean for both dosing strategies is mainly caused by the higher exposure of panitumumab in patients with a low bodyweight after fixed dosing (Figure 2). This results in a difference between the highest interquartile AUC after fixed and bodyweight-based dosing (1582 versus 1254 μg*d/mL, respectively in Table 2). However, this is clinically irrelevant as for panitumumab (like most Mabs in oncology), an exposure-toxicity relationship is absent. Although increased incidence of skin toxicity has been reported with increasing doses, this is related to the EGFR inhibition and reaches a plateau at doses of ≥2.5 mg/kg. As onset of ≥grade 2 toxicity is related to better survival and is a result of target inhibition, it even may be evaluated as biomarker for efficacy. In fact, the manufacturer reports that doses up to 12 mg/kg have been used and that the safety profile was consistent with the recommended dose.

The current work evaluates optimal dosing regimen scientifically based on clinical data, modeling and simulation. Herein, we assessed the effect of fixed and body weight-based dosing on panitumumab pharmacokinetics to determine which approach resulted in the least interpatient pharmacokinetic variability.</p><p><strong>Patients and methods: </strong>From the Vectibix program, 352 patients enrolled in three studies were evaluated; they had received panitumumab (body weight-based dose: 6 mg/kg every 2 weeks) and had pharmacokinetic (maximum serum [C<sub>max]</sub> and trough [C<sub>min</sub>] concentrations) and body weight data available. Additionally, concentration-time profiles at fixed (480 mg) and body weight-based doses (6 mg/kg) were simulated using a population pharmacokinetics model developed from 1200 patients.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>After administration of panitumumab 6 mg/kg, C<sub>max</sub> and C<sub>min</sub> increased with increasing body weight; the mean C<sub>max</sub> and C<sub>min</sub> for patients weighing <65 kg (lower quartile) were 23% and 30% lower, respectively, than for those weighing >88 kg (upper quartile). The simulated area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) data also indicated that overall panitumumab exposure increased with increasing body weight for the body weight-based regimen. When AUC was simulated for a fixed dose (480 mg), the opposite effect was observed. Over the range of body weights, interpatient variability in simulated AUC was lower for the weight-based dose (29%) than for the fixed dose (34%).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Results demonstrate that the weight-based dose (6 mg/kg) reduced variability in panitumumab exposure across the range of body weights compared with the fixed-dose approach, indicating that a body weight-based approach is the recommended patient dosing strategy.</p>","PeriodicalId":10406,"journal":{"name":"Clinical Pharmacology : Advances and Applications","volume":"12 ","pages":"109-114"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.2147/CPAA.S262949","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"38278460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
