Delayed methotrexate clearance in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia concurrently receiving dasatinib
We aimed to determine whether patients receiving dasatinib or imatinib concurrently with high‐dose methotrexate (HDMTX) had slower methotrexate clearance than patients not receiving a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) during the HDMTX infusion. Patients concurrently receiving dasatinib and HDMTX (N = ...

Summary: | We aimed to determine whether patients receiving dasatinib or imatinib concurrently with high‐dose methotrexate (HDMTX) had slower methotrexate clearance than patients not receiving a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) during the HDMTX infusion. Patients concurrently receiving dasatinib and HDMTX (N = 7) had significantly slower MTX clearance (P = 0.008) than patients not receiving a TKI (N = 111). Two patients receiving a TKI during a HDMTX infusion required glucarpidase. In vitro studies showed that dasatinib significantly inhibited methotrexate uptake by SLCO1B1‐expressing cells (P = 0.009). There may be an interaction between dasatinib and HDMTX, mediated by the transporter SLCO1B1, that causes a delay in MTX clearance. |
