  • The predictive value of longitudinal biomarker data (vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), soluble VEGF receptor (sVEGFR)-2, sVEGFR-3, and soluble stem cell factor receptor (sKIT)) for tumor response and survival was assessed based on data from 303 patients with imatinib-resistant gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) receiving sunitinib and/or placebo treatment. The longitudinal tumor size data were well characterized by a tumor growth inhibition model, which included, as significant descriptors of tumor size change, the model-predicted relative changes from baseline over time for sKIT (most significant) and sVEGFR-3, in addition to sunitinib exposure. Survival time was best described by a parametric time-to-event model with baseline tumor size and relative change in sVEGFR-3 over time as predictive factors. Based on the proposed modeling framework to link longitudinal biomarker data with overall survival using pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic models, sVEGFR-3 demonstrated the greatest predictive potential for overall survival following sunitinib treatment in GIST.CPT: Pharmacometrics & Systems Pharmacology (2013) 2, e84; doi:10.1038/psp.2013.61; advance online publication 20 November 2013.

Context of model development: Variability sources in PK and PD (CYP, Renal, Biomarkers); Clinical end-point; Risk & Benefit Characterization, Outcome Prediction (Clinical & design Viability);
Long technical model description: Final PD model (predicting survival) of biomarker sVEGFR-3 and observed tumour baseline size during sunitinib treatment of imatinib-resistant GIST. 1 biomarker from BM included: sVEGFR-3. 3 compartments. 1st compartment: sVEGFR-3 timecourse. 2nd compartment: Weibull model for survival (including exponential dependent on sVEGFR-3 and tumour baseline). 3rd compartment: Weibull model for dropout. Patients with events (deaths) before first follow-up at 4 weeks are excluded. No tumour timecourse. PK model of sunitinib is not included in model; only posthoc CL. Covariate: Baseline tumour size observation. No IIV (1 dummy OMEGA/ETA fixed to 0). No residual error (one observation per individual and odd-type data). Estimation method: LAPLACE (+ COVARIANCE STEP).;
