摘要: An attenuated dosing (AD) regimen of 37.5 mg daily in repeated 4 week on, 2 off cycles has been proposed to ameliorate frequent dose modifications caused by the toxicity observed with approved sunitinib for metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). This study aimed determine effect drug exposure on and clinical response patients receiving this regimen. All mRCC AD were invited participate. In each cycle, plasma levels assessed. Clinical responses assessed after two cycles. A total 36 recruited. Patients who manifested ≥grade mucositis (126.46 vs 84.81 ng/mL, p = 0.04) altered taste (159.91 105.22 0.05) had higher than those grade 1 or no toxicity. Twenty-six completed treatment cycles; four (15 %) partial responses, 15 (58 a stable disease 7 (27 progressive disease. No difference was found among different outcomes. The Asian provided sufficient lower incidence toxicity, being experienced
