Population pharmacokinetic analysis of fluorouracil and oxaliplatin in the absence or presence of zolbetuximab in locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Zolbetuximab, a monoclonal antibody targeting claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2), is approved in combination with chemotherapy for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, CLDN18.2-positive, unresectable, advanced or recurrent gastric cancer (in Japan) and in combination with fluoropyrimidine- and platinum-containing chemotherapy for first-line locally advanced unresectable or metastatic HER2-negative, CLDN18.2-positive gastric or gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) adenocarcinoma (in geographies including but not limited to the US, Europe, and China). Noncompartmental analysis (NCA) was previously used to evaluate the effect of zolbetuximab on pharmacokinetics (PK) of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and oxaliplatin; however, limitations of NCA confounded the results.
