Purpose:
Decitabine is a deoxycytidine nucleoside derivative inhibitor of DNA-methyltransferases indicated for treatment of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) including previously treated and untreated, de novo and secondary MDS of all French-American-British subtypes. The aim of this study was to determine the absolute bioavailability and safety of a single oral dose of decitabine. Methods: This is an open-label, Phase 1, dose-escalation absolute bioavailability trial in which decitabine was administered orally on Cycle 1 Day 1, and followed by a 1-hour IV infusion of the currently approved regimen (20 mg/m2) on Cycle 1 Days 2–5. Serial blood samples for decitabine pharmacokinetic (PK) assessment were collected up to 6 h post-dosing during Cycle 1 on Days 1 and 2. Three subjects were recruited at each oral dose level of 30, 60, 120 and 240 mg. Subjects were evaluated for adverse events (AEs). Results: Study results are summarized in Table 1. Sixteen subjects were screened and 12 were enrolled. Nine subjects had de novo MDS and 3 had secondary MDS (IPSS score Int-2 = 6, Int-1 = 5, Low = 1). Following oral dose, Cmax was reached within 0.50 h (tmax) and after Cmax the plasma profile showed biphasic decline with terminal half-life ranging between 0.36 to 0.93 hr. Increase in oral dose did not result in proportional increase in Cmax and AUC. The PK parameters following oral doses showed very high variability. Based on comparison of dose normalized exposure, the absolute bioavailability ranged between 3.9 to 14.1% and increased proportionally with dose. The non-dose normalized bioavailabilities were calculated to find a dose at which mean oral bioavailability reaches ≥80% of the current IV regimen of 20 mg/m2. The non-dose normalized bioavailability ranged between 11.7 and 80.5% with highest oral bioavailability observed at 240 mg dose. The most common SAEs were pneumonia (n=4) and neutropenic fever (n=4). Five patients (41.7%) experienced diarrhea and nausea (all grades). Conclusion: The study demonstrates that the absolute bioavailability ranged between 3.9 and 14.1%. Oral decitabine was generally well tolerated at doses between 30–240 mg in MDS subjects and exhibited a safety profile similar to the profile following intravenous administration. The bioavailability and safety data may allow for further testing in the phase 2 setting.
