Zusammenfassung: | Pazopanib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved for the treatment of renal cell carcinoma and soft tissue sarcoma. Retrospective analyses have shown that an increased median progression-free survival and tumor shrinkage appear in patients with higher plasma trough levels (C
). Therefore, patients with low C
might benefit from pharmacokinetically guided individualized dosing.
We conducted a prospective multicenter trial in 30 patients with advanced solid tumors. Pazopanib C
was measured weekly by LC-MS/MS. At weeks 3, 5, and 7, the pazopanib dose was increased if the measured C
