Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Mitotane dose adjustment based on plasma level of mitotane and metabolites, to achieve ideal mitotane plasma level (14-20 mg/L) as quickly as possible, and minimise adverse impact of overdosing. (Mitotane is administered orally daily in single or divided doses, starting at 1 or 2 g/day,and the dose required is highly variable and unpredictable). Treatment duration is at the discretion of the treating clinician.

Treatment: Drugs

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 288468 0
To determine the relationship between plasma mitotane and metabolite levels and toxicity (as assessed clinically), and confirm the published relationship with response.
Timepoint [1] 288468 0
Continually from start until end of treatment period
Secondary outcome [1] 300251 0
To identify factors that account for variability in mitotane kinetics.
- we will correlate mitotane and metabolite pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters with phenotypic factors, including age, gender and body mass index. We anticipate that age, gender and body mass index will partly correlate with PK.
Timepoint [1] 300251 0
Continually from start until end of treatment period
Secondary outcome [2] 300252 0
Assess the role of mitotane metabolites in contribution to toxicity, by correlating plasma levels with clinical assessments
Timepoint [2] 300252 0
Continually from start until end of treatment period
Secondary outcome [3] 300253 0
To provide a precise mitotane therapeutic drug monitoring process that rapidly achieves trough levels in the range 14-20mg/L, by frequent, informed dose escalation.

Timepoint [3] 300253 0
Continually from start until end of treatment period
Secondary outcome [4] 300684 0
To achieve Ideal plasma level as soon as possible (preferably within 4 weeks) after starting mitotane, and maintained without exceeding the ideal range
Timepoint [4] 300684 0
Continually from start until end of treatment period

Phase
Phase 4
Type of endpoint/s
Pharmacokinetics / pharmacodynamics
Statistical methods / analysis
Simple statistical tests (chi square, Pearson correlation, etc) will be used to determine the relationship between mitotane and metabolite levels and toxicity, and confirm the published relationship with response.

To identify factors that account for variability in mitotane kinetics, mitotane and metabolite pharmacokinetic parameters will be correlated with phenotypic factors, including age, gender and body mass index. A PD model for toxicity will be derived using independent variables of dose, plasma level and patient characteristics. WinNonLin, Statistica or similar non-linear modeling software will be used.
