▧ Absorption :
Absorption of pazopanib in cancer patients is slow and incomplete. In patients with solid tumour, over a dose range of 50-2000 mg, absorption is nonlinear. Significant accumulation of pazopanib can also be observed in patients receiving 800 mg once daily for 22 days. Crushing tablets may increase exposure (increase in Cmax and AUC, while Tmax decreases by 2 hours).
Bioavailability, oral tablet 800 mg, cancer patient = 21%;
Bioavailability may be low due to incomplete absorption from the gastrointestinal tract. The major circulating component of the drug in the systemic is pazopanib, and not its metabolites.
Mean maximum plasma concentration= 58.1 µg/mL;
Mean AUC= 1037 µg · h/mL;
▧ Volume of Distribution :
Vd steady state, IV administration 5 mg, cancer patient = 11.1 L (range of 9.15 - 13.4)
▧ Protein binding :
>99% protein bound, independent of concentrations over a range of 10-100 μg/mL.
▧ Metabolism :
Metabolized by CYP3A4 and to a lesser extent by CYP1A2 and CYP2C8. Metabolites are less active than pazopanib (10 to 20-fold less active). Three of its metabolites can be observed in the systemic and account for <10% of plasma radioactivity.
▧ Route of Elimination :
Primarily excreted via feces (82.2%) and to a negligible extent via urine (<4%) in cancer patients. Most of the administered dose is excreted unchanged. Approximately 10% of dose are oxidative metabolites and are mostly eliminated via the feces.
▧ Half Life :
35 hours. Oral absorption is not the rate limiting step of elimination from the plasma.
▧ Clearance :
CL, cancer patient, IV administration 5 mg = 4mL/min
Half of the absorbed dose is cleared via oxidative metabolism.
