Abstract:
:Twenty-seven patients with advanced cancer were entered in a phase I study of bolus i.v. 5-fluorouracil at a dose of 370 mg/m2/day for 5 days combined with a continuous i.v. infusion of (6S)-folinic acid for 5.5 days, starting 24 h in advance of the first 5-fluorouracil dose. The dose of (6S)-folinic acid was escalated in cohorts of patients from 250 mg/m2/day to a maximum of 1000 mg/m2/day. The pharmacokinetics of (6S)-folinic acid were studied in the 3 patients given 250 mg/m2/day and in 6 patients given 1000 mg/m2/day. The mean steady-state plasma concentrations of (6S)-folinic acid and its principal metabolite (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate at the 250 mg/m2/day dose were 2.7 and 5.1 microM, respectively. Both concentrations were comparable to the concentrations produced when (6S)-folinic acid was administered as half of a (6R,S)-folinic acid mixture (E. M. Newman et al., Cancer Res., 49:5755-5760, 1989). At the 1000 mg/m2/day dose of (6S)-folinic acid, the concentration of (6S)-folinic acid was 15.3 microM, more than the 4-fold increase predicted by linear pharmacokinetics, while the concentration of (6S)-5-methyltetrahydrofolate was only 16.5 microM. The change in the ratio of the parent compound to its metabolite was accounted for by a decrease in the nonrenal clearance of (6S)-folinic acid, probably indicating saturation of its metabolism. The toxicities observed in this phase I trial, including stomatitis, diarrhea, neutropenia, and anemia, did not differ in nature or severity from those produced by 5-fluorouracil and (6R,S)-folinic acid when administered on the same schedule. Finally, the degree of toxicity did not appear to depend on the dose of (6S)-folinic acid over the range of doses tested.
