Stimulation of Erythrocyte Cell Membrane Scrambling by Mitotane
Background: Mitotane (1,1-dichloro-2-[o-chlorophenyl]-2-[p-chlorophenyl]ethane), a cytostatic drug used for the treatment of adrenocortical carcinomas, is effective by triggering tumor cell apoptosis. In analogy to apoptosis of nucleated cells, eryptosis

Consensus on the Treatment of Adrenocortical Carcinoma with Mitotane(2021)
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignant tumor that occurs in the adrenal cortex, and surgery is the first choice for treating ACC. Medical therapy and radiotherapy are adjuvant treatments for patients with unresectable metastasized tumors or ...

Liver X receptor inhibition potentiates mitotane induced adrenotoxicity in ACC [PDF]
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare aggressive malignancy with a poor outcome largely due to limited treatment options. Here, we propose a novel therapeutic approach through modulating intracellular free cholesterol via the liver X receptor alpha ...

Background: Mitotane is the cornerstone adjuvant and palliative treatment for adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC), requiring strict therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) due to its narrow therapeutic window and high inter- and intra-individual pharmacokinetic ...

Adjuvant therapy in adrenocortical carcinoma: prognostic factors and treatment options
Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare cancer with high recurrence rates and heterogeneous clinical behavior. The role of adjuvant therapy remains unclear because of the challenges in collecting high-quality data for a rare cancer.

The impact of mitotane therapy on serum-free proteins in patients with adrenocortical carcinoma
Introduction: Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy of the adrenal cortex. Whilst surgery is the preferred treatment, adjunctive therapy with mitotane may be offered post-surgically to minimise the risk of recurrence or, in the absence of ...

Abstract Aim Balcinrenone (previously AZD9977) is a novel selective non‐steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) with a differential mechanism of action relative to approved MRAs. The aim of this trial was to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of balcinrenone in participants with mild and moderate hepatic impairment ...

Abstract Accurate drug concentration measurement is essential for precision pharmacotherapy, but conventional therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) requires venous sampling, increasing patient burden, and potentially limiting participation in TDM and model‐informed precision dosing (MIPD).
