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.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of esketamine for multimodal analgesia on opioid consumption and gastric motility in mechanically ventilated non-surgical intensive care unit （ICU） patients. METHODS Forty cases of mechanically ventilated non-surgical patients in the ICU of our hospital from February 1st， 2023 to July 31st， 2023 were selected and randomly divided into control group and esketamine （S-K） group using grouping method with opaque envelopes， with 20 cases in each group. Control group was given sufentanil， and S-K group was infused with Esketamine hydrochloride injection at a constant rate of 0.2 mg/（kg·h）+ sufentanil. The treatment period length， analgesic compliance rate， sedation level， analgesic and sedative consumption， and gastric motility indexes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS There was no statistically significant difference in the treatment period length， analgesic compliance rate， sedation level， or the consumption of propofol and midazolam between the two groups （P＞0.05）. The consumption of sufentanil in the S-K group was significantly less than control group （P＜ 0.05）. Compared with 1 h after randomization， the antral contraction frequency， antral contraction amplitude and antral motility index of patients in the S-K group were significantly higher at 72 h after randomization and were significantly higher than control group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Esketamine may reduce opioid consumption and improve gastric motility in mechanically ventilated non-surgical ICU patients while ensuring a level of analgesic sedation.
