Increased Plasma Concentrations of Unbound SN-38, the Active Metabolite of Irinotecan, in Cancer Patients with Severe Renal Failure
文摘
Purpose Delayed plasma concentration profiles of the active irinotecan metabolite SN-38 were observed in cancer patients with severe renal failure (SRF), even though SN-38 is eliminated mainly via the liver. Here, we examined the plasma concentrations of unbound SN-38 in such patients.
