Plasma, Tumor, and Tissue Disposition of STEALTH Liposomal CKD-602 (S-CKD602) and Nonliposomal CKD-602 in Mice Bearing A375 Human Melanoma Xenografts

Abstract

S-CKD602 provides pharmacokinetic advantages in plasma, tumor, and tumor ECF compared with nonliposomal CKD-602 at 1/30th of the dose, which is consistent with the improved antitumor efficacy of S-CKD602 in preclinical studies. The distribution of S-CKD602 is greater in fat compared with muscle whereas the distribution of nonliposomal CKD-602 is greater in muscle compared with fat. These results suggest that the body composition of a patient may affect the disposition of S-CKD602 and released CKD-602.
