Iv BU has been proven to have better bioavailability, reliable systemic drug exposure with more predictable blood levels and lower toxicity than oral BU when used as part of conditioning regimens before hematopoietic SCT (HSCT). Some studies have shown that once-daily iv BU had the same clinical efficacy as iv BU administered four times daily. To observe the clinical efficacy and pharmacokinetics (PK) of once-daily iv BU and to evaluate the influence of glutathione S-transferase (GST) gene polymorphisms on once-daily iv BU PK in adult Chinese patients with allogeneic HSCT, we analyzed 25 patients receiving related or unrelated donor transplant conditioned with iv BU-based regimens. With a median follow-up of 32.7 months, the 2-year OS and EFS were 64 and 63.8% for all the patients, respectively, and the 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse for all patients was 18.3%. On the basis of HPLC analysis, the mean clearance and mean daily area under the curve (AUC) of iv BU were calculated as 4.02 mL/min per kg and 3380.77 μ M/min, respectively. The estimated C max was 1.031±0.0325 μg/mL. The estimated t 1/2 and V d values were 3.618±0.1932 h and 1.212±0.0352 L/kg. The once-daily iv BU-based conditioning regimen was very well tolerated with minor toxicity in patients, most likely because of dose assurance with predictable PK. There was no GSTA1* B/* B homozygous patient in our Chinese patients. A significant association between BU metabolism and GSTA1 polymorphism was observed. The GSTA1* A/* B genotype group showed a significantly higher AUC (P< 0.0001), higher C max (P= 0.0003) and lower clearance (P= 0.0007) than the GSTA1* A/* A genotype group. AUC was lower in GSTP1* A/* A genotypes compared with* A/* G (P= 0.0283) and* G/* G genotypes (P= 0.0111). The BU clearance in GSTP1* A/* A genotype was shown to be higher than* A/* G (P= 0.0255) and* G/* G genotypes (P= 0.0111). In addition, the differences of PK in BU among different ethnic groups existed because of the different distribution frequencies of GST gene polymorphism in Chinese patients and Caucasian patients.
