Ibrutinib pharmacokinetics in B-lymphoproliferative disorders discloses exposure-related incidence of hypertension.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveIbrutinib has been the first Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi) authorized for the treatment of B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders (B-LPDs). Numerous publications have confirmed the efficacy of this orally administrated drug in chemo-free regimens for B-LPDs. They also reported several adverse events (AE) associated with ibrutinib treatment. Whether these AEs depended on ibrutinib exposure has however been seldom explored.
methodsIn the study reported here, the incidence of AE was recorded in 92 patients with B-LPD (mostly chronic lymphocytic leukemia n = 79) for whom ibrutinib alone was proposed as fist line therapy. Moreover, a pharmacokinetics (PK) exploration was planned over one day after 1 month treatment. PK assays included drug and metabolite (DHD-ibrutinib) mean/median and maximal plasmatic concentrations as well as areas under the curve (AUE) data.
resultsThis PK evaluation was analyzed regarding AEs recorded over the first year of therapy, which were similar as in published reports. PK data disclosed a significant impact of ibrutinib exposure on infections but mostly on the occurrence of hypertension. The latter was mostly related to dihydrodiol-ibrutinib (DHD-ibrutinib) exposure.
conclusionsThese data suggest that a DHD-ibrutinib assay after one month of treatment could be interesting to consider a lower dosage for patients above maximal concentration thresholds for the drug, its metabolite or the sum of both. Whether this can be applied to newer BTKi remains to be explored but it could be important for patients to whom ibrutinib is proposed.
