Measurement of extracellular fluid carboplatin kinetics in melanoma metastases with microdialysis

Abstract: Summary Clinical anti-tumour efficacy of anti-cancer drugs is a function of dose intensity, i.e. the concentration -time profile in tumour tissue. Hence, information on drug concentration profiles in tumours is of critical importance but appropriate methods for measurement are lacking. The aim of the present study was to obtain, by microdialysis sampling, concentration -time profiles in a solid tumour (melanoma) of a model anti-cancer drug, carboplatin, and thereby to assess the scope of microdialysis for tumo… Show more

“…Other than new optical methods and costly imaging methods with radioactive tags, minimally invasive methods with site specificity are very limited, the most commonly reported method being microdialysis, which invokes implantation of a needle into the tissue to sample the extracellular fluid through a semi-permeable membrane. 64 Despite its inherent invasiveness and other problems, 65 microdialysis has been developed in recent years as an in situ method of measurement for research applications. However, its invasiveness and slow response render microdialysis impractical for clinical management of treatments such as photodynamic therapy (PDT).…”

“…Microdialysis studies were done to evaluate the tumor ECF disposition of nonliposomal CKD-602 and released CKD-602 from S-CKD602 (1,4,5,19). After administration of S-CKD602, microdialysis studies (n = 3-4 mice per interval) were obtained every 20 min from 0 to 2 h and every 30 min from 24 to 27 h, 48 to 51 h, and 72 to 75 h. After administration of nonliposomal CKD-602, microdialysis studies (n = 3-4 mice per interval) were obtained every 20 min from 0 to 2 h and every 30 min from 4 to 7 h and 20 to 24 h. Microdialysis probe recovery was estimated by retrodialysis calibration from 0 to 2 h after administration of S-CKD602 and nonliposomal CKD-602 as previously described (19).…”

“…Microdialysis is an in vivo sampling technique used to study the pharmacokinetics and drug metabolism in the blood and ECF of various tissues and tumors (1,4,5,19). The use of microdialysis methods to evaluate the disposition of anticancer agents in tumors is relatively new.…”

“…By evaluation of the area under the curve of the tumor/tissue ratio for a series of antineoplastic drugs in preclinical investigations, the best candidate for further drug development can be identified. An example is related to malignant melanoma [61,62] , where e.g. carboplatin and dacarbazine concentrations have been measured in cutaneous metastases of human malignant melanomas and the penetration characteristics of the drugs have been evaluated.…”
