Abstract BACKGROUND: There is an unmet need for effective therapies for relapsed/refractory primary and secondary central nervous system (CNS) and intraocular lymphomas (IOL), complications that are increasing in frequency among patients age >60. Whole brain irradiation, broadly utilized in the relapsed setting, yields insufficient efficacy and considerable morbidity, particularly in older patients. Implementation of new agents that selectively target survival pathways upregulated in refractory CNS lymphoma would have significant impact. Lenalidomide (CC-5013) has established activity as a single agent in aggressive NHL, particularly in ABC-type DLBCL. We recently demonstrated the activity of lenalidomide, at modest doses, in the treatment of recurrent/refractory intraocular and CNS lymphoma (J. Clin Oncol, 2011). We also provided evidence of cereblon-dependent efficacy of lenalidomide in preclinical models of patient-derived CNS DLBCL (ASH, 2013). These observations are the basis for this first trial of IMiD® immunomodulatory compound therapy in CNS NHL, as monotherapy, and in patients with inadequate responses to lenalidomide, in combination with combined intravenous plus intraventricular rituximab. (NCT01542918). METHODS: The primary objective of this phase I study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of lenalidomide at three dose levels (10, 20, and 30mg) in relapsed/refractory CD20+ CNS NHL, with staging evaluations involving brain, CSF and intraocular compartments. Key secondary endpoints include: (1) determination of extent of CSF penetration by lenalidomide; (2) feasibility and activity of combined intraventricular and intravenous rituximab plus lenalidomide in patients with recurrent CNS lymphoma, not responsive to lenalidomide monotherapy; (3) evaluation of the effects of lenalidomide on the tumor microenvironment, including effects on tumor metabolism and immune cell infiltration and phenotypes. RESULTS: Thus far, seven subjects with relapsed CNS DLBCL (6 PCNSL, 1 SCNSL) have been treated on protocol at UCSF (median age 63, range 46-77). Each had methotrexate-resistant disease and 4 had lymphoma refractory to high-dose chemotherapy. In general, lenalidomide has been well-tolerated in the CNS lymphoma population with one DLT (non-hematologic) noted at the 20 mg dose level: fatigue and memory loss. Clinical benefit has been noted in 3 out of 4 patients with IOL, with 1 PR > 6 months duration and 1 SD > 10 months duration, each to lenalidomide monotherapy. Brain parenchymal responses to lenalidomide monotherapy (20 mg) have been demonstrated at restaging MRI, including 1 CR and 1 PR. There has been 1 CR in the leptomeninges with resolution of B-cell lymphoma in CSF, quantified by serial flow-cytometry. Combined intraventricular (20 mg) plus intravenous infusion of rituximab was well-tolerated in 3/3 patients and, with 10 mg lenalidomide, resulted in 1 PR in highly refractory IOL. Using GC/MS, we demonstrated lenalidomide penetration in ventricular CSF (0.6-7.9 ng/ml) in each of 4 patients, 12-15 hours after dosing at the 20 mg level, but trough lenalidomide concentrations >0.5 ng/ml were detected in only 1 of 3 patients receiving 10 mg lenalidomide. Serial metabolomic profiling revealed that CSF lactate correlated with clinical response to lenalidomide. Finally, we demonstrated that lenalidomide is reproducibly associated with a rapid and reversible effect on peripheral blood macrophage polarization to an M1, iNOS+ phenotype. CONCLUSIONS: These preliminary results provide evidence that lenalidomide is well-tolerated at 10 and 20 mg dose levels in CNS lymphoma. We demonstrate for the first time lenalidomide penetration in ventricular CSF, with higher trough concentrations detected at 20 mg compared to the 10 mg dose level. Encouraging evidence of lenalidomide efficacy in relapsed CNS DLBCL has been demonstrated in intraocular, CSF and brain compartments. Combined intraventricular and intravenous infusion of rituximab is feasible and represents a novel strategy to the potentiation of immunotherapeutic strategies in brain tumors. Studies are in progress to further elucidate the safety, pharmacokinetics and mechanisms involved in this biological approach to the treatment of refractory CNS lymphomas.

PURPOSE: To determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of a weekly schedule of irinotecan (CPT-11), leucovorin (LV), and a 24-hour infusion of fluorouracil (5-FU24h) as first-line chemotherapy in advanced colorectal cancer and to assess preliminary data on the antitumor activity. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twenty-six patients with measurable metastatic colorectal cancer were entered onto this phase I study. In the first six dose levels, fixed doses of CPT-11 (80 mg/m2) and LV (500 mg/m2) in combination with escalated doses of 5-FU24h ranging from 1.8 to 2.6 g/m2 were administered on a weekly-times-four (dose levels 1 to 4) or weekly-times-six (dose levels 5 to 6) schedule. The dose of CPT-11 was then increased to 100 mg/m2 (dose level 7). RESULTS: Seventy-nine cycles of 5-FU24h/LV with CPT-11 were administered in an outpatient setting. No dose-limiting toxicities were observed during the first cycle at dose levels 1 to 6, but diarrhea of grade 4 (National Cancer Institute common toxicity criteria) was observed in three patients after multiple treatment cycles. Other nonhematologic and hematologic side effects, specifically alopecia and neutropenia, did not exceed grade 2. With the escalation of CPT-11 to 100 mg/m2 (dose level 7), diarrhea of grade 3 or higher was observed in four of six patients during the first cycle; thus, the MTD was achieved. Sixteen of 25 response-assessable patients (64%; 95% confidence interval, 45% to 83%) achieved an objective response. CONCLUSION: The recommended doses for further studies are CPT-11 80 mg/m2, LV 500 mg/m2, and 5-FU24h 2.6 g/m2 given on a weekly-times-six schedule followed by a 1-week rest period. The addition of CPT-11 to 5-FU24h/LV seems to improve the therapeutic efficacy in terms of tumor response with manageable toxicity.

Abstract Genomic aberrations in the cell cycle and PI3K pathway are commonly observed in recurrent childhood brain tumors. Dual inhibition of CDK4/6 (ribociclib) and mTOR (everolimus) has strong biologic rationale, non-overlapping single-agent toxicities, and adult clinical experience. The maximum tolerated dosage (MTD) and/or recommended phase two dose (RP2D) of ribociclib and everolimus was determined in the Phase I study and ribociclib concentrations were characterized in plasma and tumor in children undergoing neurosurgical procedures. Following resection, eligible patients were enrolled in the Phase I study according to a rolling 6 design and received ribociclib and everolimus once daily for 21 days and 28 days, respectively. Patients undergoing surgery received ribociclib at the pediatric RP2D (350 mg/m2/day) for 7–10 days pre-operatively. Pharmacokinetic samples were collected on both cohorts and analyzed in nine patients on phase I study. Sixteen eligible patients enrolled on phase I study (median age 10.3 years; range: 3.9–20.4) and 5 patients were enrolled on the surgical cohort (median age 11.4 years; range: 7.2–17.1). Six patients enrolled at dose level 1 without dose limiting toxicities (DLT). Two of the three patients at dose level 2 experienced DLT (grade 3 hypertension and grade 4 ALT). The most common grade 3/4 toxicities were lymphopenia, neutropenia, and leucopenia. Everolimus concentrations following administration of everolimus alone were lower than those following drug combination, suggesting an impact of ribociclib on everolimus pharmacokinetics. The MTD/RP2D of ribociclib and everolimus in recurrent CNS tumors is 120 mg/m2 and 1.2 mg/ m2 daily for 21 days and 28 days, respectively.

Abstract Background: Bortezomib (VELCADE®, Vel) as a single agent and lenalidomide (Revlimid®, Rev) plus dexamethasone (Dex) are approved for the treatment of relapsed MM patients (pts) following ≥1 prior therapy. Rev/Vel±Dex is active and well tolerated in relapsed/refractory MM, and Rev/Dex and Vel/Dex have substantial activity in front-line MM. The aims of this phase 1/2 study were to determine the MTD of Rev/Vel/Dex in newly diagnosed MM pts, and to assess safety and efficacy. Methods: Pts received Rev 15–25 mg on d 1–14, Vel 1.0–1.3 mg/m2 on d 1, 4, 8, 11, and Dex 40/20 mg (cycles 1–4/5–8) on d 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9, 11, 12, for up to 8 21-d cycles, initially at 4 planned dose levels (Rev/Vel: 15/1.0, 15/1.3, 20/1.3, 25/1.3). Dose escalation proceeded (3-pt cohorts) depending on DLTs (G≥3 non-hematologic toxicity; G4 thrombocytopenia with platelets <10,000/mm3 on >1 occasion despite transfusion support; G4 neutropenia for >5 d and/or resulting in neutropenic fever; inability to receive cycle 2/d 1 dose due to drug-related toxicity). Based on safety data, dose level 4M was added with a reduced Dex starting dose (Rev/Vel 25/1.3, Dex 20 mg in all cycles). Toxicities were graded by NCI CTCAE v3.0. Pts with G>2 peripheral neuropathy (PNY) were excluded. Responses were assessed by modified EBMT and Uniform criteria. Pts with CR/nCR/VGPR/PR could proceed to ASCT after ≥4 cycles. Results: 33 pts (median age 56 yrs, 55% men, 84% IgG MM, 47% with ISS Stage II/III) have been enrolled to date in dose levels 1–4 and 4M, respectively, including 10 pts enrolled at the maximum planned dose (Dose Level 4M). Pts have received a median of 5 cycles; 9 pts have completed all 8 cycles. Two DLTs of G3 hyperglycemia due to high dose Dex were seen in dose level 4. Dose reductions in cycle 2 and beyond have occurred in dose levels 1–4 for Rev in 9 pts, Vel in 7 pts, and Dex in 17 pts, with 3 dose reductions having occurred in dose level 4M. Toxicities to date have been manageable. Only 1 G4 toxicity (thrombocytopenia) has been reported, plus 1 G3 DVT (reversed with LMWH), and no G≥3 PNY has been seen. The response rate across all dose cohorts (CR/nCR+VGPR+PR: subject to confirmation) is currently 89% in 25/28 evaluable pts, including 35% CR/nCR/VGPR. After median follow-up of 3 mos, median DOR, TTP, PFS, and OS have not been reached; all responders except 1 remain in remission, with 2 pts proceeding to ASCT. Conclusions: Rev/Vel/Dex is very active and well tolerated in newly diagnosed MM pts. The maximum planned dose has been reached at Rev 25 mg, Vel 1.3 mg/m2, and Dex 20 mg, with Phase 1 enrollment now complete using the lower dose of Dex. Enrollment to the Phase 2 component is ongoing.

Abstract Abstract 1957 Background: Despite recent improvements, MM remains incurable, indicating the need for continued investigation of novel agents. ENMD-2076 is a novel, orally active molecule that has been shown to have significant activity against Aurora and multiple receptor tyrosine kinases. Recently, we demonstrated that ENMD-2076 has significant pre-clinical in vitro and in vivo activity against MM cell lines and primary myeloma cells (Wang et al., Br J Haematol, 2010). Furthermore, ENMD-2076 inhibited critical pathways for MM cell survival and proliferation, including PI3K/AKT pathway with downregulation of survivin and XIAP, and Aurora A and B kinases, inducing G2/M cell cycle arrest, angiogenesis, and the FGFR3 pathway. We present the interim results of a phase I clinical trial of ENMD-2076 in patients with relapsed and refractory MM. Methods: An open label, single agent, dose-escalation dose safety and tolerability trial of ENMD-2076 is currently conducted in heavily pre-treated, relapsed and refractory MM patients who have previously failed standard therapy. Using a 3+3 design, dose escalation with ENMD-2076 is currently being studied at the doses: 150, 225, 325, 400 mg PO daily in 28 day cycles. Patients receive 28-day cycles according to safety and tolerability and absence of progression. Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic studies, including effect on phosphorylated histone 3 (pH3) in purified bone marrow MM cells, effect on the PI3K pathway in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), and circulating endothelial cell precursors are being investigated. Results: Currently, dose-escalation for the first three dose levels has been completed. Nine patients of median age 54 (range, 48–76) years were treated. There were 5 males and 4 females. The median number of prior regimens was 3 (range, 2–5), with 8 patients having failed high-dose melphalan and autologous stem cell transplantation. The most commonly observed toxicities included grades 1–2 anorexia (n=2), nausea (n=2), diarrhea (n=3), fatigue (n=3), asymptomatic elevation of amylase (n=3) and lipase (n=1), leucopenia (n=1), and heavy proteinuria (n=1). Grades 3 toxicities included hypertension (n=1), asymptomatic elevation of lipase (n=2), and thrombocytopenia (n=1). No dose-limiting toxicity was observed with all toxicities resolving promptly upon interruption or discontinuation of dosing. All patients treated on dose level 1 had progression of disease on treatment, 1 patient in dose level 2 had stabilization of disease, and 2 patients on dose level 3 had stable disease although with 21% and 19% reduction in serum M-protein after the first cycle. Significant increases in pH3 in MM cells were observed in 4 of 5 patients tested in dose levels 2 and 3. p-STAT3 and pGSK-beta were downregulated in PBMC in one patient, who also had a 19% reduction in M-protein. Conclusion: In the ongoing phase I clinical trial, ENMD-2076 appears safe and well –tolerated at the doses tested to date. Additional schedules are under investigation based on tolerability and correlative analyses. ENMD-2076 may hold promise as a treatment for MM and further study is warranted.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Primary CNS Lymphoma (PCNSL) is an aggressive primary brain tumor. Standard treatment of PCNSL may include radiation, methotrexate-based therapy, and anti-CD20 antibody therapy (rituximab) and is associated with substantial morbidity and treatment recurrence. Outcome and treatment options for patients with recurrent/refractory disease are poor. There is only limited use of targeted agents in this patient population. Ibrutinib has shown promising clinical response in some B-cell malignancies. This phase I trial investigates the maximal tolerated dose of ibrutinib in patients with recurrent/refractory PCNSL and secondary CNS lymphoma (SCNSL). METHODS: Eligible patients had a recurrent or refractory PCNSL or SCNSL, age≥18, KPS≥50, normal end-organ function, and unrestricted number and type of prior therapies. In patients with SCNSL disease, systemic disease needed to be absent or not requiring any active treatment. RESULTS: Three patients have been enrolled at dose level 1 (560 mg daily) and one patient at dose level 2 (840mg daily) of whom three were women with a median age of 70 years (range 21-80). Three had recurrent PCNSL and 1 recurrent SCNSL. Two patients presented with parenchymal and two with leptomeningeal relapse. Treatment was generally well tolerated. There was one drug-related grade 4 toxicity (neutropenia) that resolved after the drug was held for 4 days. No drug related grade 3 toxicities have been observed to date. Most common grade 2 toxicities were decreased neutrophil count and hyperglycemia. All patients continue on study at a median follow up of 87 days. Three out of four patient were evaluated for response so far. There were two responses: one complete (in the CSF) and one partial, both in recurrent/refractory PCNSL as well as one stable disease in the patient with recurrent SCNSL. The patient with partial response had failed multiple prior treatment regimens including methotrexate-based chemotherapy, radiation, and rituximab/temozolomide. Serum and CSF pharmacokinetic analysis is initiated. Dose level 2 (840mg) is accruing. CONCLUSION: Patients with CNS lymphoma tolerate Ibrutinib at 560 and 840mg well. Dose escalation will continue. Targeted agents might be an alternative therapeutic approach to be investigated for refractory/recurrent CNS lymphoma patients. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

2574 Background: XMT-1001 is a water soluble macromolecular conjugate of camptothecin (CPT). In this novel CPT pro- drug, CPT is conjugated with a 70 kDa biodegradable hydrophilic polyacetal, poly (1-hydroxymethylethylene hydroxymethylformal). XMT-1001 demonstrated an improved therapeutic window as compared with CPT and irinotecan in human tumor xenograft models, providing a compelling rationale for its clinical development. Methods: This is an open label, dose escalation study of XMT- 1001 administered as an IV infusion once every 3 weeks. The objectives of this phase I study are to determine the maximum tolerated dose and to assess safety and PK of XMT-1001. Initially 3 patients (pts) are entered at each dose level. The cohort is expanded to 6 pts if a patient experiences a dose limiting toxicity. Analyses of plasma and urine were performed for XMT-1001 (conjugated CPT), 2 major drug release products, and for unconjugated (free) CPT. Results: Thirty two pts with refractory solid tumors have received 82 cycles of XMT-1001 at 8 dose levels ranging from 1.0 to 20.5 mg CPT equivalents/m2. Two pts had Gr 3 infusion reactions consistent with hypersensitivity to study drug. Symptoms reversed upon discontinuation of study drug. After the introduction of new clinical trial material with an improved formulation, to date, no infusion reactions suggestive of hypersensitivity have occurred (11 patients, 22 cycles). No hemorrhagic cystitis or ≥ Gr 3 diarrhea was noted. Myelosuppression was observed in 3 pts treated at 15.4 mg CPT equiv/m2 dose level. Stable disease was observed in 7 pts with the following tumor types and dose levels expressed in mg CPT equivalents/m2: NSCLC (1.0 mg/m2, 6 wks), ovarian (4.9 mg/m2, 12 wks), pancreas (4.9 mg/m2, 36 wks), appendiceal (7.3 mg/m2, 12 wks), bile duct (9.1 mg/m2, 18 wks), basal cell (11.6 mg/m2, 6 wks), and colon (15.4 mg/m2, 6 wks). PK demonstrates dose proportional increases in plasma levels of XMT-1001 (conjugated CPT) and confirms the formation of its expected release products. To date, levels of free CPT in urine are low. Conclusions: 1. XMT-1001 can be given safely to patients; 2. XMT-1001 has a favorable PK profile; 3. Prolonged stable disease was observed in patients with refractory tumors. [Table: see text]

e16117 Background: Docetaxel has been shown to be effective and is used in the treatment of HRPC. This phase I study is designed to investigate the maximum tolerated dose, tolerability and activity of docetaxel administered on a biweekly schedule in older patients with HRPC. This study will also explore the feasibility of a self-report geriatric assessment tool in this population. Methods: HRPC patients with progression of metastatic disease during hormonal therapy received docetaxel q 2 wks at dose levels of 40 (level 0), 45 (level 1), 50 (level 2), or 55 mg/m2 (level 3). The trial is a conventional phase I 3+3 dose-escalation design. Treatment was continued until progression, refused further treatment, or unacceptable toxicity. Patients were given the Vulnerable Elders Survey (VES-13) for completion every 4 weeks. Results: 16 patients were enrolled in the study. All are evaluable for toxicity, 10 for response. Pts had a median (range) age 76 (72–87). Median doses administered was 6 (range 3–19). The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was not reached in the study. No dose limiting side effects were reported for any of the dosing levels in the 8 week assessment period. Five patients had a ≥50% decline in serum PSA on two consecutive measurements taken at least 2 weeks apart. Of the 10 patients with measureable disease, 2 patients (one at dose level 0 and one at dose level 3) achieved a complete response, 2 patients (one at dose level 1 and one at dose 2) achieved a partial response, and 3 patients had stable disease (one each at dose levels 1, 2, and 3). At the time of entry onto the study, 4 patients required narcotic analgesics for bone pain; after treatment, 1 (25%) discontinued their pain medications. The completion rate of the Vulnerable Elders Survey (VES-13) was 94.6%. Conclusions: Biweekly docetaxel can be safely administered in older metastatic HRPC patients and showed activity. For phase II evaluation, a bi-weekly dose of 55 mg/m2 appears to be suitable. The administration of the VES-13 was feasible in this population. [Table: see text]

2549 Background: We have analyzed the survival of pts considered for participation to contemporary phase 1 trial. Methods: All consecutive pts having signed the PIS/IC have been analyzed. OS have been measured using Kalan-Meier method. RMS had been calculated, RMS (0 to 3) is sum of the following prognostic factors: LDH>ULN, met. sites>2 and albumin <35 g/L. Comparisons have been done with Log-rank tests and Cox model. Results: OS of the entire cohort was 448 days. 73.4% of pts having been enrolled. Among not enrolled pts, 74.1% of pts received another treatment. The OS was 497, 247 and 110 days, in pts enrolled in phase I trial, in pts not enrolled but receiving another treatment and in non-treated pts (p=0.001). After adjustment to RMS and with pts not enrolled but receiving other treatment as reference, the HR was 0.47 (95-CI:0.34-0.66; p=0.0001) in pts enrolled in phase 1 compared and 3.54 (1.92-6.52; p=0.0001) in non-treated pts. We have then more specifically analyzed the pts enrolled in single-agent dose-escalating phase I. The OS was 894, 272 and 395 days in pts receiving the 2 first dose-levels, in those receiving intermediate dose-levels and those receiving the phase 2-recommended dose, respectively (p=0.001). The OS was 328 in pts receiving molecular targeted agent and 539 in those receiving cytotoxic agents (p=0.004). In a multivariate analysis, the nature of investigational agent and the dose-level were not associated with better outcome. The sole prognostic factor for OS in multivariate analysis was the RMS (0+1 vs 2+3: HR=3.80 [1.76-8.20], p=0.01). Conclusions: Inclusion in phase 1 trial was associated with better outcome in both crude analysis and after adjustment to RMS. Among enrolled pts, in multivariate analysis RMS reflecting the tumor burden was the sole prognostic factor, the nature of the drug and the dose-level were not associated with the outcome.

Abstract Rivoceranib is a highly potent and selective inhibitor of VEGFR-2 and subsequent angiogenesis through this receptor signaling pathway. This phase I study was the first global study with rivoceranib outside of China in Korean and Caucasian patients and was designed to determine the safety profile (including maximum tolerated dose), pharmacokinetics, and efficacy in patients with advanced solid tumors. Thirty-one adult patients with advanced malignant solid tumors were enrolled to investigate 6 dose levels of rivoceranib. Twenty-five patients were initially enrolled to 5 dose levels of rivoceranib from 81 to 685 mg and an additional 6 patients were later enrolled in a supplemental study to evaluate the 805 mg dose level. Rivoceranib was very well tolerated. At the 805 mg dose level, 2 dose-limiting toxicities were observed but the 685 mg dose was well tolerated over multiple cycles of therapy. The maximum tolerated dose for rivoceranib was 685 mg (equivalent to 850 mg rivoceranib mesylate) and recommended for further study in patients with advanced solid tumors. The most common adverse events were hypertension (all grades %/≥G3%: 58/29), nausea (42/0), diarrhea (39/0), anorexia (32/3), and fatigue (29/6). Rivoceranib pharmacokinetics were proportional across all dose levels but interpatient variability was high. Of the 31 patients enrolled, 21 were evaluable for efficacy. In this evaluable group, partial response was recorded in 5 patients, stable disease in 10, and disease progression in 6. Results indicate the potential clinical benefit of daily rivoceranib in patients with advanced malignant solid tumors with a tolerable safety profile.Trial registration: NCT01497704 (ClinicalTrials.gov) registered on December 22, 2011 and NCT02711969 (ClinicalTrials.gov) registered on March 17, 2016.
