Summary

Adjuvant treatment with tamoxifen is the standard of care for women with estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer. Tamoxifen is converted to endoxifen, its active metabolite, via CYP2D6 enzymes. The literature states that an endoxifen concentration of at least 16 nmol/L is needed to produce a therapeutic effect (4). Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) has been proven to be a successful technique to reach the 16 nmol/L endoxifen threshold after 6 months. However, in general TDM can only be used when a drug is in steady-state, which for endoxifen is reached after 3 months for normal metabolizers. For poor- and intermediate metabolizers, the time until steady-state is presumably even longer. This could possibly result in undertreatment within the first 3 to 6 months of tamoxifen treatment. In this study, model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) will be used to counter this problem. The Pharmacokinetic-model, which is used for MIPD, includes CYP2D6 genotype, co-medication, age, body height, BMI and CYP2D6/CYP3A inhibitor use to predict a patient tailored dose. Using MIPD, our aim is to decrease the proportion of patients that are undertreated within the first three months of tamoxifen treatment.
