Breast cancer patients have low vitamin D levels

In a study of 166 women undergoing treatment for breast cancer, nearly 70 percent had low levels of vitamin D in their blood, according to the study presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology’s Breast Cancer Symposium in San Francisco.

The analysis showed women with late-stage disease and non-Caucasian women had even lower levels.

“Vitamin D is essential to maintaining bone health, and women with breast cancer have accelerated bone loss due to the nature of hormone therapy and chemotherapy. It’s important for women and their doctors to work together to boost their vitamin D intake,” said Luke Peppone, Ph.D., research assistant professor of Radiation Oncology, at Rochester’s James P. Wilmot Cancer Center.

Scientists funded by the NCI analyzed vitamin D levels in each woman, and the average level was 27 nanograms per milliliter; more than two-thirds of the women had vitamin deficiency. Weekly supplementation with high doses of vitamin D — 50,000 international units or more — improved the levels, according to Peppone’s study.

Cancer, bowel drugs on FDA safety scrutiny list

More than a dozen drugs including a cancer therapy and a bowel medicine are under early scrutiny for potential side effects, U.S. regulators said in a quarterly list released on Thursday.

The Food and Drug Administration said it was investigating cases of liver failure in patients treated with Pfizer Inc’s cancer drug Sutent. The agency also is reviewing gastrointestinal perforation reported with Relistor, a drug from Wyeth and Progenics Pharmaceuticals for treating opioid-induced constipation.

Appearing on the list “means that FDA has identified a potential safety issue, but does not mean that FDA has identified a causal relationship between the drug and the listed risk,” the agency said.

The FDA releases a quarterly list of safety probes as part of an effort to inform the public about early investigations of potential side effects that have been reported. The list released on Thursday covers issues identified between January and March 2009.

Pfizer said in a statement it would “work with the FDA to assess the reports (on Sutent) and determine a path forward.”

In clinical trials, liver failure was seen in less than 1 percent of patients with solid tumors who were treated with Sutent, the company said.

“We stand behind the safety and efficacy of Sutent,” Pfizer said. The drug is approved for treating advanced kidney cancer and a digestive cancer known as gastrointestinal stromal tumor.

Inhalers may raise risk of asthma in some children

Common asthma reliever drugs taken by millions of children around the world may increase the risk of asthma attacks in some patients with a particular genetic make-up, British scientists said on Tuesday.

The researchers found that salbutamol, a popular blue inhaler medicine also known as Ventolin, as well as salmeterol, an ingredient in GlaxoSmithKline’s Advair, are less effective in children with a specific gene variant and may in some cases make their asthma worse.

The scientists said their findings suggest that carrying out genetic tests on children before treatment could be a more cost-effective way of treating them.

“This is a global question that needs to be addressed,” said Somnath Mukhopadhyay of Brighton and Sussex Medical School.

Salbutamol is called albuterol in the United States and is very widely used, the researchers told a news conference.

U.S. drug regulators have cautioned in the past that asthma drugs like Advair and Serevent, also made by Glaxo, may actually increase asthma risk in some patients. Glaxo said in a statement it had carried out its own studies with Advair and Serevent and found no genetic variation response differences, although the 500 patients in its study were older than 12.

“Albuterol is one of the commonest drugs right across the world. It is used in the United States, in Africa, India…” said Mukhopadhyay. “It’s cheap, it’s popular, and it’s good stuff — when it works.”

Asthma affects more than 300 million people worldwide and is the most common children’s chronic illness. Symptoms include wheezing, shortness of breath, coughing and chest tightness.
