Purpose To establish the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of ixabepilone when administered as a 1-hour infusion every 3 weeks to patients with advanced solid tumors or relapsed/refractory non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Dosing schedules of 40 mg/m2 and 50 mg/m2 over 3 hours were also evaluated. Patients and Methods Sixty-one patients were enrolled using an initial accelerated dose-escalation phase followed by a standard dose-escalation phase, with doses of ixabepilone ranging from 7.4 to 65 mg/m2. The pharmacokinetics of ixabepilone and two of its chemical degradation products were evaluated. Plasma pharmacodynamics were evaluated for both 1- and 3-hour infusions using an assay that measures the amount of endogenous tubulin in peripheral-blood mononuclear cells that exists in the polymerized versus the unpolymerized state. Response evaluation was performed every 6 weeks. Results The most common DLTs were neutropenia, stomatitis/pharyngitis, myalgia, and arthralgia. The MTD of ixabepilone as a 1-hour infusion every 3 weeks was established as 50 mg/m2. The maximum plasma concentration and area under the plasma concentration time curve appeared to increase less than proportionally to dose. Durable objective responses were seen in eight patients, including two complete responses. Five of the responders had experienced treatment failure with a taxane. Conclusion The recommended dose of ixabepilone for the initiation of phase II studies on the basis of these results is 50 mg/m2 over 1 hour every 3 weeks. The promising efficacy and tolerability results demonstrated by ixabepilone in this study warrant its continued development.

TPS3110 Background: With the knowledge that Bcl-2 facilitates drug resistance and cell survival, a DNA interference (DNAi) strategy was applied to silence Bcl-2 in cancer cells and promote apoptosis. DNAi differs from cytoplasmic mRNA targeting (antisense, RNAi, and miRNA targets) as it targets genomic DNA, blocking transcription. PNT100, a first in class DNAi, is a novel single-stranded 24-base unmodified DNA designed to bind to an upstream region of the Bcl-2 promoter. The drug product (PNT2258) is PNT100 encapsulated in a specialized pH tunable liposome and is being assessed for safety and tolerability in a phase I trial. PNT2258 avoids the toxicities associated with modified oligonucleotides and double-stranded RNAs; since the liposome formulation is anionic and contains no surface spacers, vehicle toxicities are minimal. Xenograft experiments demonstrated marked single agent activity in a diffuse large cell lymphoma, and therapy potentiation when combined with either rituximab in Daudi-Burkitt’s Lymphoma or docetaxel in A375 melanoma. Methods: An open-label, single-arm, first-in-man phase I dose-escalation study of PNT2258 in patients with advanced solid tumors was designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, dose-limiting toxicities, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of PNT2258 to recommend a dose for phase II studies. In this phase I study, pharmacodynamic effects of PNT2258 will be evaluated through analyses of soluble serum and plasma markers and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Patients will receive PNT2258 as an intravenous infusion over 2 hours once daily for 5 consecutive days (days 1-5) of each 21-day treatment cycle (3 weeks). The starting dose of 1 mg/m2 with PNT2258 administered to one patient per cohort and dose-escalation will proceed by dose-doubling in each successive cohort until a dose level of 64 mg/m2 is attained, provided no dose-limiting toxicities are observed in cycle 1. Thereafter, dose escalations shall proceed at 33% increments of the previous cohort dose-level to 85, 113, and 150 mg/m2 with expansions of up to six patients per cohort as needed. The ten planned dose cohorts have been completed with all patients enrolled.

Lipoxygenase Pathway

Purpose LY293111, a novel diaryl ether carboxylic acid derivative, is a potent and selective inhibitor of the lipoxygenase pathway either directly through 5′-lipoxygenase or via antagonism of the leukotriene B4 (LTB4) receptor. More recently it has been determined to have peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-gamma agonist (PPARγ) activity. LY293111 has antineoplastic activity in a variety of preclinical models. The tolerability and pharmacokinetics of LY293111 administered continuously, by mouth, BID for repeat cycles of 21 days was evaluated. Patients and Methods Thirty-eight patients with advanced solid tumors were treated at five dose levels (200 to 800 mg BID) for a total of 102 cycles. Results The most common toxicity was diarrhea (76%). One patient at 600 mg BID (n = 11) and two at 800 mg BID (n = 8), experienced dose-limiting grade 3 diarrhea. Dose reductions and/or delays were infrequent. Increases in steady-state maximum plasma concentration (Cmax,ss) and area under the steady-state plasma concentration time curve 0 to 12 hours (AUCτ,ss) on day 8 could be considered to be dose-proportional over the four-fold-dose range. Interpatient variability in Cmax,ss and AUCτ,ss was estimated to be 65% and 71% respectively. There was a small increase in AUC (1.37; 90% CI, 0.85 to 2.21) between single and multiple doses. Two patients with progressive chondrosarcoma and melanoma had stable disease lasting approximately 336 and 168 days, respectively. Conclusion LY293111 can be administered safely by continuous oral therapy with mild toxicities. Diarrhea is dose-limiting. The recommended phase II dose will be 600 mg BID. The steady-state concentrations in humans exceed relevant levels observed in preclinical models.

3586 Background: TP-3654 is an oral, second generation, potent PIM-1 kinase inhibitor with activity against PIM 2, 3 and favorable selectivity against other kinases. These cytoplasmic serine/threonine kinases are highly expressed in many cancers and their oncogenic potential has been largely attributed to supressing apoptosis downstream of stimuli including inflammatory cytokines and other immune effectors. TP-3654 has efficacy in various hematologic and solid tumor models inducing stromal Pim-1 also has been shown to mediate various aspects of the tumor microenvironment. Thus, Pim kinases are attractive targets for the treatment of many human malignanices. Methods: A first in human, multicenter, phase 1, dose escalation study using a standard 3+3 design with a modified Fibonacci scheme to examine the safety and clinical activity of TP-3654 in patients with advanced solid tumors. Results: Ten patients were enrolled between 30Apr and 31Dec2019 receiving 480, 720, and 1080 mg respectively. Grade 3 AEs were scrotum wound infection, altered mental status, anemia, fall, and lower extremity edema, none were related to study drug and all were manageable with supportive care. There were no Grade 4 or 5 AEs and no DLTs. Median duration of SD was 5.5 months (6/10) and with prolonged SD > 16wks (4/10). One CRC patient with 4 lines of prior therapy had a 22% reduction in tumor volume (SD > 5+ mos). TP-3654 plasma PK values (Cmax, AUC) continuously increased through all 3 cohorts. Average Cmax (ng/mL) and AUC0-24 (ng*hours/mL) were 195, 1965 (480mg); 357, 3310 (720mg); 735, 6922 (1080mg), respectively. PK values increased linearly with higher doses without reaching saturation. Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells were isolated from subjects prior and up to 24hours after treatment. Western Blot from protein lysates revealed a decrease in phosphorylation of BAD and p70s6K proteins, both regulated by PIM-1 kinase. Conclusions: These findings suggest that TP-3654 is tolerated as a monotherapy in patients with heavily pretreated, relapsed, and resistant solid tumors warranting further clinical development in selected indications.

e13011 Background: A is an oral, irreversible, ErbB Family Blocker with single-agent activity in a variety of solid tumors. Preclinical studies have demonstrated additive antitumor effects when combining A or erlotinib with P in non-small cell lung cancer cell lines with sensitizing or resistant EGFR mutations. We hypothesized that once-daily A given with P would be safe and feasible in pts with advanced solid tumors. Methods: This Phase I trial was a standard 3+3 dose escalation design where A was administered orally at a starting dose of 30 mg/day on days 2–21 and combined with IV P (500 mg/m2) on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle. A was increased by 10 mg for each successive cohort until determination of the MTD, defined as the dose of A below which ≥2 of six pts experienced dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) in Cycle 1. MTD cohort was expanded to 18 pts and incidence and severity of AEs were graded according to CTCAE v3.0. Pts were treated to a maximum of 6 cycles with the option for A monotherapy thereafter. Results: 23 pts with advanced tumors were treated: 10 males, 13 females, ECOG 0/1/2 (30%/65%/4%), median age 58 yrs, and 57% received ≥3 prior chemotherapies. In Cycle 1, treatment-related DLTs were observed in six pts; two pts of three treated at 40 mg/day A dose and four pts of 20 treated at the MTD of 30 mg/day A dose. A and P were well tolerated, with the most frequent treatment-related AEs being diarrhea (91%; of which 86% were grade 1–2), stomatitis (65%) and rash (61%). Pts received a median of 2 cycles of treatment; five pts received >4 cycles, including one patient with serous ovarian cancer who continues on trial treatment beyond 14 months. Best response of 21 available pts included two partial responses, 14 with stable disease, and three with progressive disease. Detailed response and PK data will be further analyzed. Conclusions: In pts with relapsed or refractory advanced solid tumors, oral A at 30 mg/day combined with standard dose P (500 mg/m2) administered on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle, had an acceptable safety and tolerability profile. The study is currently evaluating an intercalated schedule of A on Days 2–6 with P based on preclinical synergy thought to arise from cell-cycle pharmacodynamic separation of A and P.

116 Background: RO4987655 is an oral and selective inhibitor of MEK, a key enzyme of the MAPK signaling pathway. This was a phase I, non-randomized, open-label, dose-escalation study in Japanese patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors. Primary objectives were determination of maximum tolerated dose (MTD) based on dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), safety evaluation and PK analysis. Secondary objectives were PD analysis and exploratory analysis of RO4987655’s anti-tumor activity according to the RECIST 1.0 criteria. Methods: Patients received an oral single dose of RO4987655 (1, 2, 4, 5, and 6.5 mg) (Cycle 0) followed by continuous once daily dosing (QD, 1, 2, and 4 mg/day) then twice daily dosing (4, 5, and 6.5 mg BID, total daily dose: 8, 10 and 13 mg/day) in 28-day cycles. A 3 + 3 dose-escalation design was used. Blood samples for PK analysis were collected in Cycle 0 (Day 1, 2 and 3) and in Cycle 1 (Day 1, 8, 15 and 22). PD was evaluated by pERK inhibition in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) using FACS analysis. Results: In dose-escalation, 25 pts were enrolled. After the MTD was defined, 6 pts were added to the MTD dose for further confirmation of safety profile. Tumor types included esophageal (n=8), colorectal (n=8) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (n=4). MTD was defined as 8 mg/day due to 4 DLTs of Grade 3 creatine phosphokinase (CPK) elevation. Most commonly related adverse events included dermatitis acneiform, CPK elevation, and eye disorders, particularly macular edema and visual impairment. Plasma concentration of RO4987655 appeared to increase in a dose-proportional manner with a plasma half-life of 4.32 to 21.1 hours. After multiple dose administration, steady-state conditions were reached by Cycle 1 Day 8. The inhibitory effects of RO4987655 on pERK in PBMCs increased in a dose-dependent manner. An esophageal cancer pt confirmed partial response with over 50% shrinkage and 6 pts including NSCLC noted as stable disease ≥16 weeks by independent assessment. Conclusions: RO4987655 is tolerable with a favorable PK/PD correlation in Japanese pts with advanced solid tumors. Exploratory analysis of biomarker is ongoing. Clinical trial information: JapicCTI-111490.

BackgroundAvelumab is an anti–PD-L1 monoclonal antibody approved for the treatment of advanced UC after disease progression during or following platinum-based chemotherapy and as maintenance treatment in patients whose disease has not progressed with first-line platinum-based chemotherapy.1–3 M9241 is an immunocytokine composed of 2 heterodimers of IL-12 fused to the heavy chains of a human antibody targeting DNA released from necrotic tumor cells.4 During dose-escalation, avelumab + M9241 was well tolerated and showed promising antitumor activity in patients with advanced solid tumors, including 2 objective responses in patients with UC.5 We report on an interim analysis of efficacy and safety from the dose-expansion part of JAVELIN IL-12 (NCT02994953).MethodsEligible patients had locally advanced or metastatic UC that had progressed on first-line therapy, were aged =18 years, had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0/1, and were immune checkpoint inhibitor naive. Patients received the recommended phase 2 dose5 of avelumab 800 mg intravenously once weekly (QW) in combination with M9241 16.8 µg/kg subcutaneously Q4W for the first 12 weeks, then continued the combination with avelumab Q2W. The primary endpoints were confirmed best overall response (BOR) per investigator assessment (RECIST 1.1) and safety. The expansion cohort followed a 2-stage design. During stage 1 (single-arm part of the study), 16 patients were enrolled and treated. A futility analysis based on BOR was planned to determine if stage 2 (randomized controlled part of the study) would be initiated.ResultsAt data cut-off (Jun 3, 2020), 16 patients had received avelumab + M9241 for a median duration of 8 weeks (range, 4.0–25.0 weeks). No complete or partial responses were observed; the study failed to meet the criterion (>2 responders) to initiate stage 2. Two patients (12.5%) had stable disease, 13 (81.3%) had progressive disease, and 1 (6.3%) was not evaluable. Any-grade treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) occurred in 15 patients (93.8%); the most common (in =4 patients) were pyrexia (50.0%), nausea (37.5%), asthenia (31.3%), anemia (25.0%), and hyperthermia (25.0%); grade 4 gamma-glutamyltransferase increased occurred in 1 patient (6.3%). No TRAEs led to death. Pharmacodynamic effects on the peripheral immune system and results of pharmacokinetic and biomarker analyses will also be reported.ConclusionsThe predefined efficacy criterion to proceed to stage 2 was not met. The combination was well tolerated; no new safety signals emerged and the profile was consistent with the dose-escalation part of the study.5Trial RegistrationNCT02994953Ethics ApprovalThe study was approved by each site’s independent ethics committee.ConsentN/AReferencesBavencio(avelumab) injection [package insert].
