Abstract:
:Busulfan, a bifunctional alkylating agent, is a mainstay of myeloablative preparative regimens before hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The apparent oral clearance of busulfan expressed relative to body surface area is 2-3-fold higher in children 1-4 years old than it is in adults. The first step in busulfan elimination is the formation of a tetrahydrothiophenium ion (THT+) in a glutathione S-transferase-catalyzed reaction. We present computer simulations that demonstrate that the ratio of the AUC of THT+ to that of busulfan over 6 h [(AUC(THT+)/AUC(BU))(0-->6)] is highly correlated (r2 = 0.805) with the determinants of THT+ formation and is virtually independent of the determinants of its elimination (r2 = 0.0201). We compared (AUC(THT+)/AUC(BU))(0-->6) determined in 14 children (0.5-4 years) to that of 11 adults (12-54 years) and found a 1.5-fold elevation in the area ratio (P = 0.0098) and a similarly significant increase in busulfan apparent oral clearance expressed relative to body surface area (P = 0.042). The only common explanation for the elevated busulfan apparent oral clearance and (AUC(THT+)/AUC(BU))(0-->6) is an enhanced ability of children to metabolize busulfan through glutathione conjugation.
