Abstract:
Objective To investigate the pharmacokinetic(PK)profile of ripretinib in patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors(GISTs)in real-world settings.Methods The PK data of eight advanced GIST patients treated with ripretinib and the steady-state trough concentration(Cmin)blood samples of 54 advanced GIST patients treated with ripretinib were collected from November 2023 to March 2025 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University.A validated liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was used to quantify ripretinib and DP-5439 concentrations.The PK profiles of ripretinib were characterized.Cmin was compared across various dosages.The correlations among PK parameters of ripretinib and DP-5439,and clinical features impacting PK were explored.Results All patients reached Cmin approximately 24 hours post-dose for ripretinib and DP-5439.The median time to maximum con-centration(Tmax)for both ripretinib and DP-5439 was 3.16 hours.The steady-state Cmin,maximum plasma concentration(Cmax),and area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 hours(AUC0-24 h)of ripretinib,DP-5439,and their combined total were found to be highly correlated(all r>0.85,all P<0.05).In patients receiving 150 mg once-daily(n=44),the median Cmin(range)was 381.66(40.90-1 045.48)ng/mL for ripretinib,589.08(25.28-1 168.11)ng/mL for DP-5439,and 998.00(66.18～2 381.48)ng/mL for total,with coeffi-cients of variation(CVs)of 59.4%,57.2%,and 53.6%.In the 300 mg group(n=11),the median Cmin(range)was 1 024.51(251.36-2 030.51)ng/mL for ripretinib,1 122.34(111.54-2 682.57)ng/mL for DP-5439,and 1 924.58(404.37-4 766.08)ng/mL for total,with CVs of 59.5%,57.3%,and 54.8%.Univariate analysis showed that no significant correlation was found between age or BMI and the dose-corrected Cmin of ripretinib and DP-5439(all P>0.05),and the median dose-corrected Cmin of ripretinib and DP-5439 was slightly lower in male patients than in female patients(P<0.05).In the multiple linear regression analysis,male patients were observed to have a lower median dose-cor-rected Cmin of DP-5439 than female patients(P=0.024),but no statistical difference was found in that of ripretinib(P>0.05).Conclusions In advanced GIST patients receiving ripretinib,ripretinib and DP-5439 reached Cmin 24 hours post-dose,just before the next administra-tion.The ripretinib,DP-5439,and total Cmin showed significant correlations with their AUC0-24 h,which indicated that Cmin could serve as an indicator of ripretinib exposure.The PK features of ripretinib in advanced GIST patients exhibit significant inter-individual variability.
