Evaluation of the pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction potential of iohexol, a renal filtration marker.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Carboplatin dose is calculated based on kidney function, commonly estimated with imperfect creatinine-based formulae. Iohexol is used to measure glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and allows calculation of a more appropriate carboplatin dose. To address potential concerns that iohexol administered during a course of chemotherapy impacts that therapy, we performed in vitro and in vivo pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction evaluations of iohexol.

Methods

Carboplatin was administered IV to female mice at 60 mg/kg with or without iohexol at 300 mg/kg. Plasma ultrafiltrate, kidney and bone marrow platinum was quantitated by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Paclitaxel microsomal and gemcitabine cytosolic metabolism as well as metabolism of CYP and UGT probes was assessed
