Letrozole is another selective aromatase that inhibits the conversion of androgens to estrogen. Maximum plasma concentrations occur 1 hour after oral dosing concomitant food has not been shown to have an effect on the extent of absorption of letrazole. The terminal half-life is approximately 2 days. Letrozole is used in the treatment of postmenopausal women with hormone-receptor-positive or unknown advanced breast cancer. Side effects include bone pain, hot flushes, back pain, nausea, arthralgia, osteoporosis/bone fractures, and dyspnea. [Pg.1296]

Successful coadministration of bisphosphonates with the aro-matase inhibitors has been accomplished in many patients in the metastatic setting. The three available aromatase inhibitors are exemestane, anastrozole, and letrozole. [Pg.1315]

Options for adjuvant hormonal therapy in postmenopausal women include aromatase inhibitors (e.g. anastrozole, letrozole, or exemestane) either in place of or after tamoxifen. Adverse effects with aromatase inhibitors include hot flashes, myalgia/arthralgia, vaginal dryness/atrophy, mild headaches, and diarrhea. [Pg.698]

The liquid chromatograph Zarghi et al. used consisted of a Wellchrom K-1001 pump, Rheodyne 7125 injector, Eurochrom 2000 integrator, and K2600 fluorescence detector. The stationary phase was a Merck Chromolith Performance RP-18e column (100 x 4.6 mm). The mobile phase consisted of 0.01M dibasic sodium phosphate buffer and acetonitrile (60 40 v/v) adjusted to pH 3.5. The flow rate was 2 mL/min. The detector operated at an excitation wavelength of 240 nm and an emission wavelength of 340 nm. Letrozole served as the internal standard (IS). [Pg.303]

Stock solutions of carvedilol (8 mg/mL) and letrozole (10 mg/mL) were prepared in methanol and stored at 4°C. Standard solutions were prepared by spiking blank plasma with stock solutions. Aliquots (450, uL) of standard solutions and patient plasma samples were mixed with 50 fiL of the IS (10 jUg/mL) followed by 500 fiL of acetonitrile, vortexed for 30 sec, and centrifuged at 8000 g for 10 min. Supernatants were collected and assayed. The injection volume was 20 fiL. Figure 11.1 illustrates typical chromatograms of carvedilol and letrozole in plasma. [Pg.303]

Currently, anastrozole and letrozole are efficacious in early-stage, locally advanced, and mefasfafic disease and fhus they present with the most complete data set for the different stages of breast cancer. Although it seems rather unlikely that one will be able to detect differences with respect to clinical effects at the tumour level, the indirect comparison of different AIs suggests a stronger evidence for the use of exemestane compared with other AIs for breast cancer therapy [90]. [Pg.40]
