e13502 Background: Linsitinib (OSI-906) is an oral inhibitor of IGF-1R and IR. Increased IGF-1R and IR activity is observed in human cancers and implicated in resistance to chemotherapy. In preclinical studies, linsitinib blocked IGF-1R/IR-AKT pathway activity evoked by PAC treatment. This study combines linsitinib + a cytotoxic agent. Methods: Pts with advanced solid tumors received weekly IV PAC (80mg/m2) in 21-day cycles with intermittent linsitinib (Arm A, d1-3q7d) or continuous linsitinib (Arm B, B2 and B3, twice daily (BID) d1-21). The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of linsitinib + PAC using a standard 3+3 phase I design. Results: 58 pts were treated (49F:9M, median age 58 yrs). Linsitinib doses of 300mg to 600mg daily (QD) d1-3q7d in Arm A and 75mg to 150 mg BID in Arm B were evaluated. Dose limiting toxicities in Arm A (n=27) were grade G3 neutropenia, G2 neuropathy and G3 deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and in Arm B (n=31) were G3 hyperglycemia, G3 fatigue (n=2) and G4 pulmonary embolism (PE). DVT and PE were reported as unrelated to linsitinib. MTD: Arm A = 600mg QD d1-3q7d Arm B = 150mg BID. Most common drug-related toxicities in ≥20%were (any grade; G3): fatigue (60%; 15.5%), nausea (48%; 0%), alopecia (48%; 0%), diarrhea (36%; 5%), drug eruption (21%; 2%), neuropathy (26%; 2%) and dysgeusia (24%; 0%). The median duration of exposure (days) for Arm A was 64.5, 91.0, 132.0 and 159.5 for the 300mg, 400mg, 450mg and 600mg doses, respectively. In Arm B, median duration of exposure (days) was 232.0 and 87.5 for the 75mg and 150mg doses, respectively. Partial response was achieved in 6 pts (10%)-3 ovarian, 1 primary peritoneal, 1 endometrial, and 1 esophageal. Stable disease was achieved in 25 pts (43%) - 10 ovarian, 2 primary peritoneal, 1 endometrial, and 12 pts in other tumor types. Pharmacokinetic (PK) results suggested no substantial PK interaction when linsitinib was administered 2 hours prior to PAC. Conclusions: Linsitinib + PAC did not show any unexpected safety concerns given the known mechanism of action, at doses up to the single agent MTDs. Clinical trial information: NCT00889382.

BackgroundM4112 is an oral, potent, and selective indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) and tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase 2 (TDO2) dual inhibitor. Here, we report preclinical data and first-in-human phase I data, including safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy, of M4112 monotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumors.MethodsIn preclinical studies, M4112 was administered to mice with IDO1-expressing tumors to determine tumor IDO1 and liver TDO2 inhibition. In the phase I trial, patients received doses of M4112 two times per day in 28-day cycles until progression, toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D). The primary endpoint was the incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), and treatment-emergent changes in safety parameters. Other endpoints included pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor effects.ResultsIn mice, M4112 significantly decreased the kynurenine:tryptophan ratio in the liver and tumor. Fifteen patients received M4112 at five distinct dose levels (three patients per cohort: 100, 200, 400, 600, and 800 mg two times per day orally). Initially, all doses inhibited IDO1 ex vivo, but plasma kynurenine levels returned to or exceeded baseline levels after day 15. Despite initial changes in kynurenine, there was no significant reduction of plasma kynurenine at steady state. There was one DLT (grade 3 allergic dermatitis; 800 mg two times per day) and one grade 2 QT prolongation (800 mg two times per day), resulting in dose reduction (not a DLT). M4112 was well tolerated, and neither the MTD nor the RP2D was established. TEAEs included fatigue, nausea, and vomiting. The best overall response was stable disease (n=9, 60%).ConclusionsThere were no serious safety concerns at any dose. Although M4112 inhibited IDO1 activity ex vivo, plasma kynurenine levels were not reduced despite achieving target exposure.Trial registration numberNCT03306420.

2536 Background: The aim of this study was to determine the safety, maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and efficacy of DS-7423, a novel inhibitor of PI3K/mTOR, in US and Japanese population. We further compared toxicities and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of DS-7423 and approved oncology drugs in the two populations. Methods: We conductedparallel, first-in-human studies in US and Japan in patients with advanced solid tumors. We conducted a Pubmed search of pivotal and corresponding phase I studies to compare the RP2D and final approval doses of molecularly targeted agents (MTA) between US and Japan. Results: 69 patients were enrolled (n = 42 from US and n = 27 from Japan). Between populations, the only difference at baseline was body weight (BW) and body mass index (BMI). Dose-limiting toxicities included grade 3 rash (48 mg), grade 3 stomatitis (240 mg), grade 3 lung infection (240 mg), grade 4 hyperglycemia (240mg), grade 3 fatigue (320 mg), and grade 3 dehydration (320mg). The MTD and RP2D was 240 mg/d in both populations. Frequent treatment-related adverse events included diarrhea, fatigue, decreased appetite, rash, and stomatitis. No remarkable difference in AUC and Cmax were observed between populations. Prolonged stable disease was seen in cholangiocarcinoma, thymic cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, squamous cell carcinomas, carcinoid, and sarcoma. DS-7423 demonstrated PD effects on serum glucose, C-peptide and Akt phosphorylation and 18F-FDG uptake in tumors. The final RP2D of 17 MTA approved in US and Japan from 2001 to 2015 was near identical. The approved doses in both regions were identical. Conclusions: Despite differences in BW, BMI, and ethnicity, DS-7423 showed no difference in PK, PD, toxicity or efficacy between populations. We found near identical RP2D in phase I oncology studies and approved doses in pivotal studies. This supports increased international collaboration in the conduct of phase I oncology trials. Clinical trial information: NCT01364844, Japic CTI, 12766.

3113 Background: JPI-547 is an oral inhibitor of PARP 1/2 and Tankyrase 1/2. JPI-547 demonstrated anti-tumor activity in BRCA-deficient xenograft models as a single-agent and in combination with chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Methods: This is the first in human (FIH) phase I study of JPI-547 in patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors. For the dose escalation phase, a 3+3 design was used with 4 doses from 50 to 200 mg QD on 21-day cycles. Primary objectives were to assess safety and tolerability to determine RP2D, and secondary objectives included pharmacokinetics and preliminary antitumor activities. DLT monitoring period was 21 days. Pharmacodynamics and information of HRR mutation were also explored. For the dose expansion phase, pts with documented pathogenic germline or somatic BRCA/HRR mutations were enrolled to assess the preliminary efficacy and safety. Tumor response (RECIST 1.1) was evaluated every 6 weeks. Centralized germline BRCA testing was conducted to confirm pathogenic gBRCA mutations. Results available at the cut-off date of 31-Dec-2020 are presented. Results: For dose escalation phase, 22 pts were enrolled. JPI-547 was well absorbed with Tmax of 0.25-8 h post-dose and apparent half-life of 18-31 h. Mean Cmax and AUC increased proportionally (within the dose range of 50-200 mg). PAR level measured from PBMC was 53% inhibited at Cmax. One DLTs was observed at 100 mg (elevated ALT, G3) and 200 mg (elevated ALT/AST, G3) respectively. MTD was determined as 200 mg after considering DLTs and myelosuppression observed from cycle 2. RP2D was determined to be 150 mg based on the pharmacokinetic data and safety. Thirteen pts (59.1%) had at least one grade 3/4 TRAE and 12 had dose interruption/reduction due to TRAE. The most common ( > 20%) TRAE were anemia, thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. In dose expansion phase, 40 pts were enrolled, and response was evaluable in 39 pts. The best overall responses were 11 confirmed PR (cPR) and 15 SD with ORR of 28.2% (11/39) and DCR of 64.1 % (25/39). The mPFS was 3.5 mos and mDoR was 3.4 mos. At the time of data cut-off, three pts were ongoing as following response and cancer types: cPR (breast, ATMm, 9.0 mos), cPR (NSCLC, gBRCA2m, 3.8 mos) and SD (breast, gBRCAm, 9.3 mos). Five pts (2 ovarian, 3 breast) previously treated with olaparib and discontinued due to progressive disease were enrolled in this JPI-547 trial and one ovarian cancer pt showed cPR with 37% tumor shrinkage. Conclusions: These results demonstrate that JPI-547 is adequately absorbed with acceptable safety profile. Preliminary efficacy results suggest that JPI-547 monotherapy is effective in pts with BRCA/HRR mutation. Further investigation is warranted in pts with solid tumor including PARP inhibitor resistant cases. Clinical trial information: NCT04335604.

2029 Background: Trabectedin (ET-743) is a DNA minor-groove intercalating agent that blocks transcription factor activity, elicits G2/M cell cycle arrest, and induces apoptosis. Single agent activity has been demonstrated in soft tissue sarcoma (STS), breast, prostate and ovarian cancer. In preclinical studies sequential exposure of paclitaxel (P) followed by trabectedin (T) 24 hrs later resulted in synergy. The objectives of this phase I study were to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RD) of sequential P and T administered every 2 weeks in patients with advanced solid tumors. Methods: Escalating doses of P (80–120 mg/m2) over 1hr iv on day 1 and T ( 525–775 μg/m2) as 3 hrs iv day 2 every 2 weeks were administered. To evaluate drug:drug interactions, P was administered alone on day -7 in course 1 and PK studies performed courses 1 & 2. MTD was defined as ≥ 2/3 pts with dose limiting toxicity (DLT) in the 1st 2 courses. Results: 29 pts were enrolled and 27 were evaluable: median age was 48 yrs (19–82). M/F 16/13. Pts were treated over 5 dose levels: I 80/525 (n = 3), II 80/580 (n = 3), III 120/580 (n = 6), IV 120/650 (n = 11), V 120/775 (n = 4). A total of 213 courses of therapy were given, median number of course was 4 (range 1–28). There were 4 DLTs due to neutropenia delaying therapy > 1 week; one each at 120/580 (Grade 2) and 120/650 (Grade 4) and 2 at the MTD of 120/775 (Grade 4). Most common toxicities observed for P+T were neutropenia (24%), nausea (51%), vomiting (24%), transaminitis (23%), myalgia (24%) and alopecia (20%). One pt with PNET has an ongoing CR 16 months, one breast cancer pt (prior P failure) has PR 12 mo+ and 8 pts (6 STS) had SD > 3 mo (range 4–15 mo). There appear to be no marked drug:drug interactions for P and T. Preliminary non-compartmental PK results [geometric mean (CV%)] for T include t1/2 52.4 hr (43.6%); Cl l/hr/m2 31.6 (57.3%); Vss l/m2 1382 (69%) and for P are t1/2, 29.2 hr (39.1%); Cl l/hr/m2 15.3 (44.1%); Vss 213 l/m2 (72%). Conclusions: The recommended dose for this combination is paclitaxel 120 mg/m2 day 1 and trabectedin 650 μg/m2 day 2 administered every 2 weeks. Antitumor activity in STS and breast cancer, predictable PK parameters, and tolerable toxicity warrants further study of this combination. [Table: see text]

3018^ Background: Volasertib (V) is a first in class, selective and potent cell cycle kinase inhibitor that induces mitotic arrest and apoptosis by targeting Plk. This phase I study evaluates dose-limiting toxicities (DLT), maximum tolerated dose (MTD), safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of V combined with cisplatin (Cis) or carboplatin (Ca). Methods: Sequential cohorts of patients (pts) received a single 2h infusion of V with Cis (arm A) or Ca (arm B) every 3 wks. Cis and Ca were given for up to 6 cycles (Cy); V was continued until progression or intolerance. MTD was the highest dose at which ≤1/6 pts experienced a DLT in Cy 1. MTD cohorts were expanded to 12 DLT-evaluable pts to further characterize safety. Results: As of January 11 2012, 61 pts (arm A: 30; arm B: 31) were treated. Pt characteristics were (arm A/B): median age 55/58 yrs, male 16/18 pts, ECOG PS 0: 13/14 pts, PS 1: 17/17 pts. Tumors included (pts): non-small cell lung cancer (15); sarcoma (8); colorectal cancer (6); melanoma (4); urothelial cancer (4); other (24). Pts received V + Cis for a median [range] of 3.5 Cy [1-6], V + Ca for 2 Cy [1-6] and V for 3.5 Cy [1-20] in arm A and 2 Cy [1-14] in B. PK analyses are ongoing. MTD was reached at V 300 mg + Cis 100 mg/m2 and V 300 mg + Ca AUC 6. Five partial responses (PR) were seen. 15/30 pts in arm A and 12/31 in B achieved stable disease (SD) or PR. PR or SD for >6 Cy was observed in 6/30 pts and 5/31 pts in arms A and B, respectively. Conclusions: In this phase I study, V in combination with Cis or Ca at full single-agent doses was well tolerated. Furthermore, several objective responses and cases of sustained SD were observed in heavily pretreated pts with advanced solid tumors.[Table: see text]

2526 Background: Belinostat has a reported maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of 1,000 mg/m2 given days 1 to 5 every 21 days as a single agent, although in one study in hepatocellular carcinoma belinostat was given at 1,400 mg/m2on the same schedule. Pre-clinical evidence suggests HDAC inhibitors enhance retinoic acid signaling with a synergistic impact in a variety of solid tumors. We conducted a phase I study of belinostat and 13c-RA in advanced solid tumors. Methods: Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) was defined as cycle 1 hematologic toxicity: ≥grade 3 that not resolved to <grade 1 within 1 week or non-hematologic toxicity: ≥grade 3. We sought the MTD of belinostat days 1-5 with 13-cRA days 1-14, every 21 days, in patients (pt) with advanced solid tumors. Eligibility criteria included normal organ function and QT/QTc interval; 4 weeks from previous therapy. Results: 51 pt were treated: median age 61 (range 40-80); 29 men; 57% ECOG 0, 41% ECOG 1, 2% ECOG 2; 13 lung, 11 breast, 8 colorectal, 3 pancreatic. 11 dose levels (DL) were tested starting from belinostat 600 mg/m2/day and 13c-RA 50 mg/m2/day to belinostat 2000 mg/m2/day and 13c-RA 100 mg/m2/day. Only two DLTs were observed: a grade 3 hypersensitivity reaction with dizziness and hypoxia at DL 8 (belinostat 1700 mg/m2/day, 13c-RA 100 mg/m2/day); and a grade 3 allergic reaction in a patient with an ECOG PS 2 at DL 11 (belinostat 2000 mg/m2/day, 13c-RA 100 mg/m2/day). The MTD was not reached. Pharmacokinetics of belinostat suggests dose proportionality. Median number of cycles: 2 (range 1–56). 10 patients had SD including: 1 neuroendocrine pancreatic stable for 56 cycles; 1 breast pt for 12 cycles; 1 lung pt 8 cycles. 2 pt had PRs: a keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma (tonsil) and a lung cancer pt. Conclusions: Belinostat 2000 mg/m2 days 1-5and 13-cis-Retinoic acid 100 mg/m2days 1-14, every 21 days, was well-tolerated and an MTD was not reached despite doubling the established single agent MTD. Future studies building on this combination to belinostat are warranted. Support: U01CA062505 and P30CA033572 (City of Hope); U01CA099168 and P30CA047904 (University of Pittsburgh).

13115 Background: MGd is a novel therapeutic agent that concentrates in tumors and generates reactive oxygen species. Pre-clinical models show that MGd enhances in tumors the cytotoxic activity of selected chemotherapies, including taxanes. This phase I trial studied the combination of MGd and docetaxel. Methods: Patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors, adequate bone marrow, hepatic and renal function were eligible. Cohorts of 3 pts were treated with MGd starting at 2.5 mg/kg followed 30 minutes later by docetaxel 75 mg/m2. Treatments were repeated q3wks. The primary objective was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MGd in combination with docetaxel on this schedule and to determine the dose limiting toxicities (DLT). The secondary objective was to evaluate the response rate. MGd dose was escalated in successive cohorts while docetaxel dose remained fixed. Results: Sixteen pts were entered (9 males, 7 females) at MGd dose of 2.5 to 10 mg/kg. The median age was 60.5 yrs (range 35 -75). ECOG PS0 (4), 1 (14). Diagnoses included prostate (1); ovarian (2); breast (2) and non-small cell lung (NSCLC) (11). Median number of prior chemotherapy regimens: 2 (range 1–14), 7 pts had previously received a taxane: paclitaxel 5, docetaxel 2. Reported toxicities (all grades) include urine discoloration from excretion of MGd (68%), fatigue (87%), diarrhea (81%) and nausea (56%), Grade 3 neutropenia (37.5%) febrile neutropenia (6%), neuropathy (foot drop) was seen in 1 patient, therefore additional pts were entered (4 registered, but 1 never treated) at 10 mg/kg dose. Recurrence of prior radiation esophagitis was seen in 1 pt therefore it was felt that DLT was reached and study was closed. Responses are as follows: PR by CT in 1 breast and 4 NSCLC, and by PSA in 1 prostate; SD by CT in 1 breast and 2 NSCLC. Conclusion: MGd 10 mg/kg in combination with docetaxel 75 mg/m2 is feasible and did not increase docetaxel toxicity while showing promising responses. Phase II study of this combination is underway in NSCLC. [Table: see text]

3101 Background: IDO is an enzyme of interest in immuno-oncology because of the immunosuppressive effects that result from its role in tryptophan catabolism. Clinical trials of IDO inhibitors with immunotherapy are under active investigation. The addition of angiogenesis inhibitor may further enhance the anti-tumor immune responses. Here we report the safety and efficacy results of SHR9146 (IDO inhibitor) plus camrelizumab (PD-1 antibody) with/without apatinib (VEGFR-2 inhibitor) in patients (pts) with advanced solid cancers who failed standard antitumor therapies. Methods: This was an open-label, phase I study. Eligible puts would receive SHR9146 (escalated dose) plus camrelizumab (200 mg IV, q2w) alone (Cohort A) or in combination with apatinib (250 mg p.o. qd) (Cohort B). Each cohort was conducted according to a 3+3 dose escalation design. The starting dose of SHR9146 was 100mg bid, followed by 200, 400, 600 mg bid. The two primary endpoints were Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) and Maximum Tolerated Dose (MDT). The secondary objective was to analysis the incidence of Adverse Events (AEs) and efficacy. Results: As of Oct 31, 2020, 23 pts have been enrolled (Cohort A:14, Cohort B: 9; median age: 54 years; median prior therapies: 2 lines;). Cohort A was escalating at 600mg, and Cohort B was escalating at 400mg. Two pts experienced DLTs: one DLT (G4 hypercalcemia) was observed at 600mg in Cohort A; the other DLT (G3 rash) was observed at 400mg in Cohort B. MDT was not reached and the study was still ongoing. In Cohort A, ORR and DCR in evaluable pts were 21.4% (3/14, all confirmed) and 42.9% (6/14). Partial response was observed in 3 pts with liver cancer (1/3), renal cancer (1/3), and cervix cancer (1/3). In Cohort B, ORR and DCR in evaluable pts were 33.3%(3/9, all confirmed) and 77.8%(7/9). Partial response was observed in 3 pts with SCLC (1/3), prostate cancer (1/3) and renal cancer (1/3). The incidence of pts with TRAEs and grade>=3 TRAEs were 91.3% (21/23) and 39.1% (9/23) respectively. The most common grade>=3 TRAEs were hypercalcemia (26.1%, 6/23), fatigue (17.4%, 4/23) and nausea (13.0%, 3/23). No fatal AEs were observed. G3 nausea, G3 lipase increased and G2 GGT increased resulted in SHR9146 dose reduction in 3 pts (Cohort A). Conclusions: SHR9146 plus camrelizumab in combination with/without apatinib demonstrated promising anti-tumor activity with acceptable safety in pts with advanced solid tumors. Further study is needed to validate the efficacy and safety. Clinical trial information: NCT03491631.

PURPOSE: We conducted a phase I and pharmacokinetic study of docetaxel in combination with irinotecan to determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), and the dose at which at least 50% of the patients experienced a DLT during the first cycle, and to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetic profiles in patients with advanced solid tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with only one prior chemotherapy treatment (without taxanes or topoisomerase I inhibitors) for advanced disease were included in the study. Docetaxel was administered as a 1-hour IV infusion after premedication with corticosteroids followed immediately by irinotecan as a 90-minute IV infusion, every 3 weeks. No hematologic growth factors were allowed. RESULTS: Forty patients were entered through the following seven dose levels (docetaxel/irinotecan): 40/140 mg/m2, 50/175 mg/m2, 60/210 mg/m2, 60/250 mg/m2, 60/275 mg/m2, 60/300 mg/m2, and 70/250 mg/m2. Two hundred cycles were administered. Two MTDs were determined, 70/250 mg/m2 and 60/300 mg/m2; the DLTs were febrile neutropenia and diarrhea. Neutropenia was the main hematologic toxicity, with 85% of patients experiencing grade 4 neutropenia. Grade 3/4 nonhematologic toxicities in patients included late diarrhea (7.5%), asthenia (15.0%), febrile neutropenia (22.5%), infection (7.5%), and nausea (5.0%). Pharmacokinetics of both docetaxel and irinotecan were not modified with the administration schedule of this study. CONCLUSION: The recommended dose of docetaxel in combination with irinotecan is 60/275 mg/m2, respectively. At this dose level, the safety profile is manageable. The activity of this combination should be evaluated in phase II studies in different tumor types.
