The effect of mitotane therapy in treatment of adrenocortical carcinoma was studied in 88 patients (mean age 46 yr); 80 of these patients underwent surgery and 59 also received oral mitotane capsule, at a mean initial dose of 10 g/day and a mean maintenance dose of 7 g/day for a mean duration of 10.5 months. The median disease free interval after surgery was 12.1 months. Tumor dissemination occurred in 82% of the patients, most commonly to the lung, liver and adjacent organs. The median survival time was 14.5 months, and the 5 yr survival was 22%. Age over 40 yr and the presence of metastases at the time of diagnosis were the only factors recognized as indicating a poor prognosis. Mitotane controlled hormonal secretion in 75% of the patients. Eight mitotane treated patients had partial tumor regression, but the drug did not have a significant effect on survival. It was concluded that adrenocortical carcinoma carries a poor prognosis; mitotane therapy may offer transient benefits, particularly in controlling endocrine symptoms.

/BOXED WARNING/ WARNINGS: Lysodren (mitotane tablets, USP) should be administered under the supervision of a qualified physician experienced in the uses of cancer chemotherapeutic agents. Lysodren should be temporarily discontinued immediately following shock or severe trauma since adrenal suppression is its prime action. Exogenous steroids should be administered in such circumstances, since the depressed adrenal may not immediately start to secrete steroids.

... Seventeen consecutive patients who were treated with mitotane after radical resection of adrenocortical cancer (ACC) from 1999 to 2005 underwent physical examination, routine laboratory evaluation, monitoring of mitotane concentrations, and a hormonal work-up at baseline and every 3 months till ACC relapse or study end (December 2007). Mitotane toxicity was graded using NCI CTCAE criteria. All biochemical measurements were performed at our center and plasma mitotane was measured by an in-house HPLC assay. All the patients reached mitotane concentrations >14 mg/L and none of them discontinued definitively mitotane for toxicity; 14 patients maintained consistently elevated mitotane concentrations despite tapering of the drug. Side effects occurred in all patients but were manageable with palliative treatment and adjustment of hormone replacement therapy. Mitotane affected adrenal steroidogenesis with a more remarkable inhibition of cortisol and DHEAS than aldosterone. Mitotane induced either perturbation of thyroid function mimicking central hypothyroidism or, in male patients, inhibition of testosterone secretion. The discrepancy between salivary and serum cortisol, as well as between total and free testosterone, is due to the mitotane-induced increase in hormone-binding proteins which complicates interpretation of hormone measurements. ...

/Investigators/ prospectively studied 7 patients with adrenocortical cancer on mitotane therapy. Before and 1 and 2 or more weeks after starting mitotane we determined the platelet counts, bleeding times and global coagulation parameters. All patients had a normal bleeding time before treatment. In 6 cases the bleeding time became prolonged (245-555 s). Four patients exhibited platelet aggregation responses compatible with an aspirin-like defect. It is concluded that mitotane may cause a clinically relevant defect of platelet function.

Gastrointestinal disturbances (anorexia, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea) occur in 80% of patients and are usually dose limiting. About 40% of patients experience central nervous system side effects (lethargy and somnolence, 25%; dizziness or vertigo, 15%). About 15% of patients develop dermatitis.

For treatment of inoperable adrenocortical tumours; Cushing's syndrome
Symptomatic treatment of advanced (unresectable, metastatic or relapsed) adrenal cortical carcinoma. The effect of Lysodren on non-functional adrenal cortical carcinoma is not established.
Mitotane is an oral chemotherapeutic agent indicated in the treatment of inoperable adrenal cortical carcinoma of both functional and nonfunctional types. Mitotane can best be described as an adrenal cytotoxic agent, although it can cause adrenal inhibition, apparently without cellular destruction. The administration of Mitotane alters the extra-adrenal metabolism of cortisol in man; leading to a reduction in measurable 17-hydroxy corticosteroids, even though plasma levels of corticosteroids do not fall. The drug apparently causes increased formation of 6-B-hydroxyl cortisol.
Antineoplastic Agents, Hormonal
Antineoplastic agents that are used to treat hormone-sensitive tumors. Hormone-sensitive tumors may be hormone-dependent, hormone-responsive, or both. A hormone-dependent tumor regresses on removal of the hormonal stimulus, by surgery or pharmacological block. Hormone-responsive tumors may regress when pharmacologic amounts of hormones are administered regardless of whether previous signs of hormone sensitivity were observed. The major hormone-responsive cancers include carcinomas of the breast, prostate, and endometrium; lymphomas; and certain leukemias. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual 1994, p2079) (See all compounds classified as Antineoplastic Agents, Hormonal.)

Absorption
About 40% oral Lysodren is absorbed
Route of Elimination
A variable amount of metabolite (1%-17%) is excreted in the bile and the balance is apparently stored in the tissues.
Clinical studies indicate that approximately 40% of mitotane is absorbed after oral administration. After daily doses of 5 to 15 g, concentrations of 10 to 90 ug/mL of unchanged drug and 30 to 50 ug/mL of a metabolite are present in the blood. After discontinuation of therapy, plasma concentrations of mitotane are still measurable for 6 to 9 weeks. Although the drug is found in all tissues, fat is the primary site of storage.
Gilman, A.G., T.W. Rall, A.S. Nies and P. Taylor (eds.). Goodman and Gilman's The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics. 8th ed. New York, NY. Pergamon Press, 1990., p. 1253
Peak plasma mitotane concentrations occur 3-5 hours after a single oral dose of the drug and distribution of the drug between plasma and tissues is complete within 12 hours. In one study in patients with adrenocortical carcinoma who were receiving an oral dosage of 5-15 g of mitotane daily, serum mitotane concentrations were 7-90 ug/mL and serum concentrations of mitotane metabolites were 29-54 ug/mL. Serum concentrations of mitotane and its metabolites appear to plateau after about 8 weeks of continuous mitotane therapy and generally have not appeared to correlate with therapeutic or toxic effects of the drug; however, some data suggest that tumor regression in patients with adrenocortical carcinoma is associated with serum mitotane concentrations greater than 14 ug/mL and that adverse CNS effects are associated with serum concentrations greater than 20 ug/mL.
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009), p. 1178
Mitotane and its metabolites are distributed to essentially all body tissues with fat being the primary storage site; there is no selective accumulation in the adrenals. Following discontinuance of mitotane therapy, persistent plasma concentrations of mitotane and its metabolites are probably caused by their slow release from fat and other tissues. Although unchanged mitotane has not been detected in CSF, small amounts of one mitotane metabolite have been detected in CSF.

Urine samples were obtained from four patients with Cushing syndrome who had been treated with o,p'-DDD. Methyl-thio containing metabolites and other metabolites of o,p'-DDD were detected in the urine samples by gas chromatographic mass spectrometry. These methyl-thio containing metabolites showed smaller peaks in the gas chromatogram than other peaks derived from other metabolites of o,p'-DDD. Although the biological significance of the pathway forming these methyl-thio containing metabolites is not known at the present /time/. ...

18-159 days
Mitotane reportedly has a plasma elimination half-life of 18-159 days.

Its biochemical mechanism of action is unknown, although data are available to suggest that the drug modifies the peripheral metabolism of steroids as well as directly suppressing the adrenal cortex.
The exact mechanisms of action of mitotane have not been clearly established. Although mitotane is an adrenocortical cytotoxic agent, the drug can also apparently inhibit adrenocortical function without causing cellular destruction. Mitotane appears to selectively inhibit adrenocortical function as well as functional and nonfunctional adrenocortical neoplasms by a direct cytotoxic effect; this effect may be mediated through covalent bonding of mitotane metabolites to mitochondrial proteins. The drug causes focal degeneration in the zona fasciculata and reticularis of the adrenal cortex with resultant atrophy. The drug usually causes only minimal degeneration in the zona glomerulosa (site of aldosterone biosynthesis); however, the zona glomerulosa may be damaged with prolonged mitotane therapy. Mitotane also reportedly inhibits the growth of human renal carcinoma cells, astrocytoma cells, and fibroblasts in vitro.
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009), p. 1178
Mitotane inhibits production of corticosteroids and alters extra-adrenal metabolism of endogenous and exogenous steroids. Mitotane inhibits the normal 11-beta-hydroxylation of 11-deoxycortisol (compound S) and 11-deoxycorticosterone (DOC) in the adrenal cortex, thus blocking conversion of compound S to cortisol (hydrocortisone) and DOC to corticosterone. The drug can also inhibit 18-hydroxylase activity in the adrenal cortex and thus decrease the production of aldosterone by blocking the conversion of corticosterone to 18-hydroxycorticosterone (the immediate precursor of aldosterone). Mitotane decreases cortisol secretion rate; plasma cortisol concentration; urinary excretion of free cortisol, 17-hydroxycorticosteroids (17-OHCS), 17-ketosteroids (17-KS), and 17-ketogenic steroids; and adrenocortical response to stimulation by corticotropin (ACTH). A feedback increase in plasma corticotropin concentration is generally observed in patients receiving mitotane; however, a lack of feedback increase or a decrease in plasma corticotropin concentration has been observed in some patients. Therefore, it has been suggested that the drug may have a partial suppressive effect on pituitary corticotropin-secreting cells. Mitotane apparently increases the extra-adrenal metabolism of cortisol to 6-beta-hydroxycortisol which results in decreased urinary excretion of measurable 17-OHCS; this occurs even in the presence of unchanged cortisol secretion rate or plasma cortisol concentration. Although urinary excretion of aldosterone metabolites may decrease, serum aldosterone concentrations may remain in the normal range. Therefore, it has been suggested that mitotane may also alter the extra-adrenal metabolism of aldosterone. Mitotane decreases the extra-adrenal conversion of androgens to androsterone and etiocholanolone; this results in decreased urinary excretion of 17-KS. The drug also inhibits the extra-adrenal conversion of 3-beta-hydroxysteroids to 3-alpha-hydroxypregnane derivatives.
American Society of Health System Pharmacists; AHFS Drug Information 2009. Bethesda, MD. (2009), p. 1178
Mitotane has uricosuric activity and thus decreases serum uric acid concentrations; the exact mechanism of the increase in renal uric acid clearance has not been established.
