Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacogenetics-based Adaptive Dosing of 5-fu (5-Fluorouracile) in Head & Neck Cancer Patient Undergoing Docetaxel, Cisplatin, 5-Fluorouracile (=TPF) Therapy

Crop the plasma exposure of 5-FU (5-Fluorouracile) around a predefined target area under the curve 30 (AUC30) in patients with head and neck cancer treated with Docetaxel, Cisplatin, 5-Fluorouracile (=TPF) protocols and correlate adaptive Bayesian procedure to tolerability.

• Develop a population die from a group of 20 patients for which a pharmacokinetic study will be carried out
• Evaluate obtaining effective concentration of 5-FU in the context of a Docetaxel, Cisplatin, 5-Fluorouracile (=TPF) protocol adapted by the Bayesian procedure.
• Compare recommendations in terms of dosage adjustment of Bayesian approach with the recommendations of a simplified graphical approach.
• Test the measure of Dihydro Pyrimidine Dehydrogenase (DPD) activity Dihydrouracil/Uracile (UH2 / U ratio) as a co-variable adjustment of 5-Fluorouracile (5-FU) regimens in Pharmacogenomics/Pharmacokinetic (PGx / PK) model.
• Evaluate a prototype of urinary dipsticks for the early detection of toxicity from the assay as a marker of Dihydro Pyrimidine Dehydrogenase (DPD) activity.
• Assess the cost-benefit of dosage targeting, in terms of reduction resulting costs to the management of chemotherapy-induced toxicities.
