Kinetics of 7-hydroxy-methotrexate (7-OH-MTX) excretion after high-dose methotrexate (MTX) (12 g/m2) therapy were monitored in 93 consecutive drug cycles of 19 adolescent patients with osteosarcoma. A reversed-phase HPLC method was used. Serum elimination was found to be monophasic with a mean half-life of 5.5 h. Shortly after the 4-h MTX infusion period 7-OH-MTX levels exceeded those of the parent compound. By 12 h after MTX infusion 7-OH-MTX levels were 16.5 times higher than those of MTX itself. Autostimulation of MTX metabolism leading to enhanced 7-OH-MTX production after repeated drug cycles was not observed. The production of 7-OH-MTX decreased significantly from the first to the last high-dose MTX cycle of the adjuvant chemotherapy protocol.
