Oral vancomycin solution is superior to capsule in inducing clinical biomarker and endoscopic remission in children with atypical ulcerative colitis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims Atypical colitis (presenting reverse gradient colitis, backwash ileitis or rectal sparing) is associated with primary sclerosing cholangitis–ulcerative colitis (PSC). Oral vancomycin has been used to manage paediatric atypical colitis with/without confirmed PSC. Different preparations had shown different efficacy.

Effect of developmental changes on pharmacokinetics of drugs used in the treatment of infant acute lymphoblastic leukaemia—A comprehensive review

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
While the event‐free survival (EFS) of children treated for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) has improved greatly in the last decades, the EFS for patients diagnosed with ALL before the age of one is still under 50%. This outcome further decreases when infants have a rearrangement in the gene encoding histone‐lysine N‐methyltransferase 2A (KMT2A ...

Patient‐reported outcomes and medication errors during oral antitumour therapy in paediatrics: Results from the youngAMBORA care programme

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Increasing use of oral antitumour therapeutics (OAT) in paediatrics is associated with numerous advantages, but also with error‐prone aspects. Based on the randomized AMBORA trial including adults treated with various OAT, we developed a tailored pharmacological/pharmaceutical care programme for children and their caregivers during OAT treatment ...

Assay of 6‐thioguanine in human plasma. [PDF]

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 1980
1. A fluorimetric method has been developed for measuring therapeutic concentrations of 6‐thioguanine in human plasma. The drug was measured as an oxidized derivative, guanine 6‐sulphonate. 2. 6‐thioguanine was extracted from plasma by a novel procedure which isolated the drug from an interfering plasma components. This method involved the formation of

Dispensing of actionable pharmacogenetic drugs among adults receiving cardiovascular disease medications in the Northern Netherlands: A serial cross‐sectional study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The extent of pharmacogenetic (PGx) drug dispensing among Dutch adults receiving medications for cardiovascular disease (CVD) is unknown. Using the University of Groningen IADB.nl pharmacy database, we performed a serial cross‐sectional study (2019–2023) to estimate the annual prevalence of PGx drug dispensing and annual rates of initiation.
