Management of Acute Myeloid Leukemia in a Dialysis-Dependent Patient: A Case Report, Literature Review, and Therapeutic Considerations. (PubMed, Cureus)
Azacitidine was administered after dialysis sessions, while venetoclax dosing was adjusted because of concomitant posaconazole prophylaxis. Approximately one year after diagnosis, relapsed AML was identified on peripheral blood flow cytometry. This case highlights the feasibility of venetoclax-based lower-intensity therapy in selected dialysis-dependent AML patients while underscoring the persistent therapeutic limitations and adverse prognosis associated with relapsed disease in this population.

Clinical impact of potential drug-drug interactions between midostaurin and posaconazole in FLT3-mutated AML. (PubMed, Antimicrob Agents Chemother)
Midostaurin clearance was delayed during co-administration. Midostaurin therapeutic drug monitoring may serve for decision-making when DDI with CYP3A4 inhibitors is suspected.

A real-world analysis of the impact of azole antifungal prophylaxis on outcomes in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia treated with venetoclax-based therapy. (PubMed, Leuk Res)
In multivariable analysis, patients who received azole AFP did not have improved survival (HR 1.29, 95% CI 1.10-1.53, P = .004) compared to patients who did not (median OS 10 months vs. 11 months), with similar lack of benefit across agents: voriconazole (HR 1.04, p = 0.75), fluconazole (HR 1.26, p = 0.039), isavuconazole (1.52, p = 0.048), and posaconazole (HR 1.62, p = 0.005). Routine azole AFP does not improve overall survival in patients receiving Ven/HMA, contrasting with proven benefits in intensive chemotherapy, likely due to lower fungal infection risk combined with the complexities of managing drug-drug interactions in routine practice, as evidenced by high rates of inadequate venetoclax dose adjustment in this cohort.

Simultaneous Determination of Venetoclax and Posaconazole in Human Plasma by UPLC-MS/MS: Application to Therapeutic Drug Monitoring in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients. (PubMed, Drug Des Devel Ther)
The trough concentrations of venetoclax were 9326.88 ± 12,169.05 ng/mL in patients treated with venetoclax alone, and 31,623.55 ± 28,453.67 ng/mL in patients treated with venetoclax in combination with posaconazole. A rapid and simple method was established and successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of the concentrations of venetoclax and posaconazole in AML patients, providing a basis for TDM and clinical pharmacokinetic analysis of these drugs in AML patients.

Posaconazole attenuates arsenic trioxide toxicity and enhances safety and efficacy while reducing invasion and metastasis in non-small-cell lung cancer. (PubMed, Pulm Pharmacol Ther)
Furthermore, flow cytometry and colony formation assays revealed that PCZ attenuates and reduces the apoptotic/necrotic effects of ATO. In conclusion, PCZ synergistically and effectively reduces the adverse cytotoxic effects of ATO in lung cancer cells, providing a promising new therapeutic strategy for lung cancer treatment.
