Treatment of High Dose Methotrexate Toxicity with Glucarpidase [PDF]
High Dose Methotrexate (HD-MTX) toxicity can cause renal dysfunction in patients due to a presence of risk factors such as body mass index >25 kg/m2, comedication (salicylates, NSAID`s, sulfonamides, beta-lactam antibiotics, aminoglycosides), urine pH<7, iv fluid intake <3 l/m2/24 hours, hepatic dysfunction, renal insufficiency prior to HD-MTX,

Comparable efficacy with varying dosages of glucarpidase in pediatric oncology patients [PDF]
BackgroundGlucarpidase rapidly reduces methotrexate plasma concentrations in patients experiencing methotrexate‐induced renal dysfunction. Debate exists regarding the role of glucarpidase in therapy given its high cost. The use of reduced‐dose glucarpidase has been reported, and may allow more institutions to supply this drug to their patients.

Pharmacokinetics as a Biomarker. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Pharmacokinetics (PK) has long been differentiated from pharmacodynamics (PD) and biomarkers, yet this distinction undervalues PK's translational relevance. In this Perspective, we propose that PK itself functions as a biomarker that bridges dose, exposure, and response. Using examples from target‐mediated drug disposition, antidrug antibodies,
