Fotemustine
Fotemustine is a chloroethylating nitrosourea with antineoplastic activity. Fotemustine alkylates guanine by forming chloroethyl adducts at the 6 position of guanine, resulting in N1-guanine and N3-cytosine cross linkages, inhibition of DNA synthesis, cell cycle arrest, and finally apoptosis. This agent is lipophilic and crosses the blood-brain barrier.

The indication "disseminated malignant melanoma", including cerebral metastases, is currently the preferential indication for fotemustine, administered alone or in combination with other anticancer agents.

New Zealand Ministry of Health, MEDSAFE, New Zealand Medicines and Medical Devices Safety Authority, Information for Health Professionals, Data Sheet for Muphoran (fotemustine, 209 mg powder for injection). Last updated May 2002. Available from, as of November 17, 2009: https://www.medsafe.govt.nz/Profs/Datasheet/m/Muphoraninj.htm


/EXPERIMENTAL THERAPY:/ ... Patients with progressive glioblastoma multiforme after radiotherapy plus concomitant and/or adjuvant temozolomide received three-weekly doses (100-75 mg/ sq m) of fotemustine followed, after a 5-week rest, by fotemustine (100 mg/sq m) every 3 weeks for < or =1 year. Forty-three patients (29 M, 14 F; median age 51 years, range 34-68; median KPS 90) were enrolled. Progression-free survival at 6 months (PFS-6) was 20.9% (95% CI: 9-33%); three patients (7.1%) had partial response (PR); 15 (34.9%), disease stabilization (SD). The median survival was 6 months (95% CI: 5-7). O6-Methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter status was methylated in 8 (18.6%) and unmethylated in 26 (60.5%) and not assessable in 9 (20.9%) patients, respectively. Disease control was 75% versus 34.6% in methylated and unmethylated MGMT patients (P = 0.044); no significant difference was found between groups for PFS-6 and survival. Grade 3 and 4 thrombocytopenia and neutropenia were observed in 20.9 and 16.3% of patients, during the induction phase, and in 0 and 9.5% patients during the maintenance phase, respectively. The findings of the present trial, that evaluate fotemustine in a homogeneous population, may represent a new benchmark for nitrosourea activity. Moreover, this is the first study to evaluate correlation between MGMT promoter status and outcome of fotemustine for relapsing glioblastoma multiforme previously treated with radiotherapy and temozolomide.

/EXPERIMENTAL THERAPY:/ ... This study investigated the impact of hepatic arterial chemotherapy in patients with ocular and cutaneous melanoma. In a retrospectively analyzed observational study, 36 consecutive patients with hepatic metastases from ocular or cutaneous melanoma were assigned for surgical hepatic port-catheter implantation. Fotemustine was delivered weekly for a 4-week period, followed by a 5-week rest and a maintenance period every 3 weeks until progression. Overall survival, response and toxicity were analysed and compared. After port-catheter implantation 30/36 patients were finally treated (18 with ocular and 12 with cutaneous melanoma). A median of 8 infusions per patient were delivered (range 3-24). 30% thrombocytopenia grade >or=3, 7% neutropenia grade >or= 3 but no nausea or vomiting grade >or= 3 were encountered. Nine out of 30 patients achieved partial remission, 10/30 stable disease; 11/30 patients were progressive. Median survival for all treated patients was 14 months. Partial remission and stable disease were associated with a survival advantage compared to progressive disease (19 vs. 5 months). No significant difference in survival was observed for ocular versus cutaneous melanoma. Serum LDH was a significant predictor of both response and survival. Hepatic arterial fotemustine chemotherapy was well tolerated. Meaningful response and survival rates were achieved in ocular as well as cutaneous melanoma. Careful patient selection in consideration of extra-hepatic involvement is crucial for the effectiveness of this treatment. Independent from the primary melanoma, it is debatable if patients with highly elevated serum-LDH may benefit from this approach.

5.3 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

The pharmacokinetics and metabolism of intravenously infused (14)C-fotemustine (about 100 mg/sq m) were examined in 2 cancer patients. Plasma levels of radioactivity increased to a maximum of 4.1 and 5.5 ug equivalents per g when the infusion stopped then declined triexponentially with mean half-lives of about 1/2, 10 and 80 hr for the initial, mid and terminal phases, respectively. Plasma levels of intact drug were lower, with maximum levels of 1.1 and 2.8 micrograms/ml, and declined monophasically with a half-life of about 24 min. Plasma clearance was high (1426 and 764 mL/min) with the volume of distribution based on areas of 47.7 and 26.4 L. Most of the radioactivity was eliminated in urine (50.1 and 61.3%) over 7 days with smaller amounts in the feces (6.8 and 0.3%) and only minimal quantities (under 0.1%) as expired carbon dioxide. ...

PMID:2145908 Ings RM et al; Eur J Cancer 26 (7): 838-42 (1990).


After administration in /humans/ of the drug labelled with (14)C on the chloroethyl group, the radioactivity is slowly eliminated with a terminal half-life of 83 hours. About 50 to 60% of the radioactivity administered is detected in the urine, 30 to 40% of which is detected during the first 24 hours, but the unchanged molecule is not detected in the urine. 5% of the radioactivity is eliminated in the feces and less than 0.2% in the form of expired CO2.

In /humans/, during administration by intravenous infusion, the plasma levels of fotemustine are close to the steady-state value after 45 minutes. After the end of the infusion, plasma levels go down rapidly and three hours later the molecule can no longer be detected in the blood.

In animals, the tissue distribution is rapid and very extensive. Fotemustine crosses the blood-brain barrier (2 to 5 minutes after bolus administration in the rat, it is detected in the brain at sufficiently high levels to be active).

5.4 Metabolism/Metabolites

The pharmacokinetics and metabolism of intravenously infused (14)C-fotemustine (about 100 mg/sq m) were examined in 2 cancer patients. ... Metabolites of fotemustine were identified as chloroethanol and N-nitroso-1-imidazolone-ethyl-diethylphosphonate in plasma and as 1-hydantoin-ethyl-diethyl-phosphonate and acetic acid in urine.

5.6 Mechanism of Action

... The mode of cell death in 11 melanoma cell lines upon exposure to temozolomide and fotemustine /is determined/. ... For both temozolomide and fotemustine apoptosis is the dominant mode of cell death. The contribution of necrosis to total cell death varied between 10 and 40%. The O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) activity in the cell lines was between 0 and 1100 fmol mg(-1) protein, and there was a correlation between MGMT activity and the level of resistance to temozolomide and fotemustine. MGMT inactivation by O(6)-benzylguanine sensitized all melanoma cell lines expressing MGMT to temozolomideand fotemustine-induced apoptosis, and MGMT transfection attenuated the apoptotic response. This supports that O(6)-alkylguanines are critical lesions involved in the initiation of programmed melanoma cell death. One of the cell lines (MZ7), derived from a patient subjected to DTIC therapy, exhibited a high level of resistance to temozolomide without expressing MGMT. This was related to an impaired expression of MSH2 and MSH6. The cells were not cross-resistant to fotemustine. Although these data indicate that methylating drug resistance of melanoma cells can be acquired by down-regulation of mismatch repair, a correlation between MSH2 and MSH6 expression in the different lines and temozolomide sensitivity was not found. Apoptosis in melanoma cells induced by temozolomide and fotemustine was accompanied by double-strand break formation (as determined by H2AX phosphorylation) and caspase-3 and -7 activation as well as PARP cleavage. For temozolomide, double-strand breaks correlated significantly with the apoptotic response, whereas for fotemustine a correlation was not found. Melanoma lines expressing p53 wild-type were more resistant to temozolomide and fotemustine than p53 mutant melanoma lines, which is in marked contrast to previous data reported for glioma cells treated with temozolomide. Overall, the findings are in line with the model that in melanoma cells temozolomide-induced O(6)-methylguanine triggers the apoptotic (and necrotic) pathway through double-strand breaks, whereas for chloroethylating agents apoptosis is triggered in a more complex manner.
