    Abstract:
    Tucatinib is a potent tyrosine kinase inhibitor selective for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer and in development for other HER2-positive solid tumors. Modest, reversible serum creatinine (SCr) elevations have been observed in tucatinib clinical trials. SCr is conveyed by the renal drug transporters organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) and multidrug and toxin extrusion protein 1 (MATE1) and 2-K (MATE2-K) and can increase in the presence of inhibitors of these transporters. In vitro, tucatinib inhibited OCT2-, MATE1-, and MATE2-K-mediated transport of metformin, with IC50 values of 14.7, 0.340, and 0.135 µM, respectively. Tucatinib also inhibited OCT2- and MATE1-mediated transport of creatinine, with IC50 values of 0.107 and 0.0855 µM, respectively. A phase 1 study with metformin administered orally in the absence and presence of tucatinib was conducted in 18 healthy subjects. Renal function was assessed by measuring glomerular filtration rate (GFR; based on iohexol plasma clearance) and endogenous markers (SCr, cystatin C-based estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR]) with and without tucatinib. Metformin exposure increased (1.4-fold) and renal clearance decreased (29.99-17.64 L/h) with tucatinib, with no effect on metformin maximum concentration. Creatinine clearance transiently decreased 23% with tucatinib. GFR and eGFR, which are unaffected by OCT2 and/or MATE1/2-K transport, were unchanged with tucatinib. These data demonstrate that tucatinib inhibits OCT2- and MATE1/2-K-mediated tubular secretion of creatinine, which may manifest as mild SCr elevations that are not indicative of renal impairment.
