No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Docetaxel is used as a first line anti-cancer drug in the treatment of several cancers, mainly breast- and metastatic castration-resistant prostate carcinoma.

Anti-cancer drugs are being dosed based on patients estimated Body Surface Area in order to equalize total drug exposure. Nevertheless, docetaxel treatment is characterized by highly interindividual pharmacokinetic variation leading to toxicity and under-treatment.

The investigators will determine which anthropometric parameters, LBM, total body weight (TBW) or BSA correlate best to docetaxel exposure (AUC) for both males and females.

Conditions

  • Breast Cancer
  • Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Carcinoma

Interventions

OTHER

Lean body mass

Lean Body mass (DEXA scan and Bioelectrical Impedance Assessments) within one week prior to the first docetaxel dose

OTHER

Total body weight

Total Body weight (TBW) (scale) within one week prior to the first docetaxel dose

OTHER

bloodsampling

Blood samples will be taken during the first docetaxel administration of the first cycle, just before docetaxel infusion (t=0 min.), 30 min after start of infusion (t=30 min.), just prior to end of infusion (t=55 min.) and between 3 to 6 hours post start infusion following a limited sampling model
