Population pharmacokinetic and exploratory exposure-response analysis of the fixed-dose combination of pertuzumab and trastuzumab for subcutaneous injection in patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer in the FeDeriCa study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To characterize pertuzumab pharmacokinetics (PK) in FeDeriCa (NCT03493854: fixed-dose combination of pertuzumab and trastuzumab for subcutaneous injection [PH FDC SC] versus intravenous pertuzumab plus trastuzumab); derive individual pertuzumab exposures in the PH FDC SC arm for subsequent pertuzumab exposure-response (ER) analyses; compare observed trastuzumab PK with predicted exposures from a previous SC trastuzumab model; assess whether pertuzumab affects trastuzumab PK; evaluate pertuzumab exposure-efficacy and -safety relationships and support the approved SC dosing regimen.

Methods

Population pharmacokinetic modeling and simulations were used to describe the data. Standard goodness-of-fit diagnostics and prediction-corrected visual predictive checks were used
