A Study of Population Pharmacokinetics of Docetaxel (Taxotere) in Caucasian and African-American Cancer Patients


OBJECTIVES:

- Compare the population pharmacokinetics of docetaxel in Caucasians and African American
patients with solid tumors.

- Compare the pharmacodynamic effect of a single dose of docetaxel in relation to
hematological toxicity in these patient populations.

- Determine the CYP3A4 genotype and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) expression and their
relationship to docetaxel clearance in these patient populations.

OUTLINE: Patients receive docetaxel IV over 1 hour on day 1. Patients may receive additional
courses beginning 21 days after the first docetaxel dose at the discretion of the physician.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 80 patients (40 Caucasian and 40 African American) will be
accrued for this study.
