Summary

Traditional dosing of 5-FU is based on body surface area and DPD enzyme activity. However, BSA-based dosing is associated with wide inter-individual variations in 5-FU systemic exposure, and also 5-FU-induced toxicity. The international association for therapeutic drug monitoring and clinical toxicology (IATDMCT) state in there clinical guideline, in which all previous clinical pharmacokinetic studies of 5-FU were reviewed, that only 25% of the patients are within the therapeutic range. In the traditional treatment regimens a bolus of 400 mg/ m2 5-FU is given, followed by a dose of 2400 mg/m2 as a 46-hour infusion. The therapeutic range of 5-FU in these older regimens is defined by a target AUC of 20-30 mg\*h/L. In contrast, 5-FU in FLOT regimen is given without a bolus, and in a high dose of 2600 mg/m2 as a 24-hour infusion. This means that a comparable absolute dose of 5-FU is given with FLOT and the older regimens, however, the manner and duration of administration differ. Based on this administration, it is expected that the FLOT regimen will result in an approximately two-fold higher steady state concentration (Css), as it is given in an approximately two-fold shorter period of time (t). As a result of this pharmacokinetic predictions, the exposure to 5-FU (AUC = Css x t) will be comparable between these different 5-FU regimens. Therefore, we hypothesise that the therapeutic range of 5-FU in FLOT will be comparable to the target AUC of 20-30 mg\*h/L in the older regimens. Similar to the older treatment regimens, we expect that a significant part of patients will be outside this therapeutic window. To test these hypotheses, the aim of this study is to establish the population exposure of 5-FU in FLOT treatment regimen, and to determine the percentage of patients that achieves this therapeutic range.
