Abstract
 
PURPOSE:
The objective of this study was to investigate  the drug interaction 
between dasatinib and the gastric acid suppressants  (H2-receptor antagonists 
(H2RA) famotidine and nizatidine and the proton pump  inhibitor (PPI) 
lansoprazole in leukemia Japanese patients. 
METHODS:
Eighteen patients treated with dasatinib and  H2RA, PPI or no acid 
suppressant from whom were obtained a total of 34  pharmacokinetic profiles 
were 
enrolled in the study. Dasatinib plasma  concentrations from samples obtained 
just prior to and 1, 2, and 4 h after oral  dasatinib administration were 
analyzed by high-performance liquid  chromatography. 
RESULTS:
There were no significant correlations between  the dose-adjusted total 
area under the observed plasma concentration-time curve  (AUC(0-4)) of 
dasatinib and gender, age, weight, or body surface area. The only  variable 
factor, 
the dasatinib dose-adjusted AUC(0-4) for patients administered  an H2RA or 
PPI, was significantly lower than for patients not administered an  acid 
suppressant (median (quartile 1-quartile 3) values: 1.47 (0.79-2.29) versus  
3.51 (2.50-5.45) ng h/mL/mg, respectively, P = 0.0008). Moreover, the plasma  
concentration 2 h (C(2h)) after dasatinib administration gave a high 
correlation  with the AUC(0-4) of dasatinib (r = 0.9419, P < 0.0001). 
CONCLUSION:
Clinicians should be aware that administration  of an acid suppressant such 
as famotidine, nizatidine, and lansoprazole can  decrease the absorption of 
dasatinib from the gastrointestinal tract, thereby  resulting in a 
significant decrease in the plasma concentration of dasatinib.  The combination 
of 
dasatinib and an acid suppressant requires careful  therapeutic drug 
monitoring of the dasatinib plasma concentration to ensure  effective patient 
exposure to the drug.

Thanks Marty ... I only post once in while, trying to show that  sometimes 
all the meds in the world does not mean diddly.  Attitude love  of life, and 
all the things that you say, only reinforces what you have been  saying all 
along. Lab counts are an indicator yes, but how you feel inside is  what 
counts, you remember that old saying, "I was complaining  about sore feet, 
until I met a man without legs".  All of the people on  these CML pages are 
HEROs

Hi Skip,  


So you say that I have the right idea? Well my friend it is you that has  
the right idea. You are the longest living person in the world that has CML  
and not on any kinds of TKI's for it yet you still show a log  reduction. 


I'm sorry that you must go through all of what you have to go through but  
the bottom line is that your still alive and functioning in spite of all of  
that. Skip I can tell you that you are here for a reason...


18's my friend,


Marty

Hello all.....
just  wanted to comment on low/high platelets.  I have gone through the 
whole  range of platelets, from 0(zero) to 380,000. This week last Friday I had 
40  platelets and received a bag.  I received my report today 3Sept2014 and 
 I was back down to critical ( in my lab critical is below 30\).  In all  
my 36 almost 37 years, I do not think the high or low platelets bothered me,  
Thank G-d.  I have a PCR abl test every three months and yes it it so  much 
better than BMA, I lost track of how many  I have over this  last year or 
so without meds,  a log reduction of 0.5, not sure if that  is good or bad.  
My RBC is down in the 90's which makes me a bit  winded. I go twice a week 
for infusions, once week for RBC if  below 100, twice week for platelets, I 
usually lose between 30 to 50  platelets over the weekend.  I wanted to share 
this with all of  you, it is not the end of the world if you have movement 
in your counts,  just remind your ONC if your feeling sick.  If anyone is  
interested I would be willing to send one of my lab reports, if it would  
ease your mind.  Our bodies are strong and will try to fight this CML,  but you 
have to help it, try to get rid of stress, eat healthy, any  problems talk 
it over with friends and family, Marty has sound advice,  And remember this 
old fellow keep praying for all of us every  day.  
Skip  D

Thanks Marty, being positive is one of our healing factors, but  sometimes 
when we feel so bad and know we have to take our chemo every day,  our mind 
gets bogged down with our illness.  Our ability to focus  sometimes gets a 
little blurry when we are in pain, but somehow we will get  lifted up again 
and be ready to fight one more day.  I love the  inscription on my g 
grandfather's grave.  It says, "He Fought The Brave  Fight."  So let us all 
fight 
bravely each day, and uplift  each other with words of love and encouragement.
You are one of the bravest warriors I have ever known.
Blessings,
Jeanie<3

Maria, good luck with your blood test.  


Here are some words to live by...



EXPECT THE BEST,  MIND OVER MATTER. SUCCESS IS A FUNCTION OF SELF 
CONFIDENCE. TO HAVE  SUCCESS AT ANYTHING YOU MUST FIRST LEARN TO BELIEVE IN 
YOURSELF. 
IF YOU  EXPECT THE WORSE THEN THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU WILL GET (MIND OVER 
MATTER)  IF YOU EXPECT THE BEST THEN THAT IS WHAT YOU WILL GET.
WHAT WE HAVE TO  LEARN TO DO IS TO CHANGE OUR MENTAL HABITS, OUR STATES OF 
MIND. LEARN TO  EXPECT AND NOT TO DOUBT. BY DOING THIS YOU BRING EVERYTHING 
INTO THE REALM  OF POSSIBILITY. WHEN YOU LEARN TO BELIEVE THEN WHAT YOU 
THOUGHT TO BE  IMPOSSIBLE THEN MOVES INTO THE AREA OF POSSIBILITY.
EVERY GREAT THING  EVENTUALLY BECOMES POSSIBLE FOR YOU. MY BELIEF AT THE 
BEGINNING OF A  DOUBTFUL UNDERTAKING IS THE ONE THING THAT INSURES THE 
SUCCESSFUL  OUTCOME...
FOCUS...
Please look me up.  Google Marty Gartenberg. Open CML hope then go to “The  
Window”

Thanks both of you, Richard and Marty for your concern!!! I  am doing OK 
and plan to have a CBC done in an hour or so.  I will  start back on my 
Sprycel as soon as they draw the blood!!!  


Life is beautiful no matter what.  As I look back, I know that  I am lucky 
and strong, and I wil never give up!!!!!


Love you all!!!

Hello  everyone!!!! God bless you all!!! I have been out of touch for  a
while. My situation is still complicated, but  rather uneventfull. I went
to my appointment and  my oncologist for the day told me that I might need
another bone marrow aspiration and biopsy soon. She  was worried because my
platelets went down. The  problem is that I have not been able to take my
sprycel steadily. I have skipped some days. Sprycel  acts really strongly
on my platelet count, and I  know this is what is happenning. Apparently, I
have an infection also running around my system. To  make it more
interesting, I have been out of  medication for a whole week due to
insurance red  tape...
I will resume my Sprycel 70 mcg dose daily  tomorrow after I do another CBC.
I have an  appointment in two weeks...

Well, please take care!!!! Love you!!!!
Blessings!!! :)
Maria

Hope  you receive good news after your CBC. My ONC has a lab in his  office 
and I have my results after about a 1/32  hour wait. I have Iron Deficient 
Anemia that was  found after I was diagnosised with CML. He doesn't like to 
have a patient do a bone marrow biopsy because it is  too painful. I was on 
Gleevec for 5 + years and  off for almost 6. In Oct. I will do the mutation 
testing as I have something happening in my medical  life. I have several 
things can be causing my  blood test to be out of sync, so we must do some 
elinination testing to find what tand who should be  the lead Dr. to manage 
treatment. 

My favorite response to the  question "How are you doing?". "I stood up 
this  morning looked around and said "Thank you God. Its going to be a  
great day. I hope you are having one also."

Hi Richard  and Maria,

Richard, whenever  we can get out of bed then it really is a good day. When
I was a young child my father taught me that every  day is a good day unless
someone that we love  dies.

Maria, isn't it a shame  that we all have to be dealing with insurance
companies that may denigh us some life saving  medications? This is simply
unacceptable. I do  hope that all of this will be worked out for you and
everyone else that this may be happening to.

18's,

Marty
