Outline of Final Research Achievements

We analyzed pharmacokinetics and polymorphisms of 8 genes in 46 patients with metastatic RCC (mRCC) who were treated with axitinib. Axitinib level in patients with UGT1A1 poor metabolisers were signifcantly higher than others. The overall survival (OS) in patients with C0>5 ng/mL was signifcantly better than that in others. Genetic polymorphisms in UGT1A1 were signifcantly associated with the plasma axitinib level.
Furthermore, we measured serum concentrations of 34 cytokines in 44 mRCC patients treated with axitinib. PFS and OS of those patients in whom serum PAI-1 level decreased after the treatment was significantly extended. The multivariate analysis showed that declined serum PAI-1 after the treatment was a independent predictive marker of PFS and OS.
