3027 Background: Autophagy is a catabolic process triggered in cells during periods of stress to enable their survival. Established tumors utilize autophagy to survive periods of metabolic or hypoxic stress. Inhibition of early stage autophagy can rescue cancer cells, while inhibition of late stage autophagy will lead to cell death due to accumulation of damaged organelles. The antimalarial drugs CQ and HCQ inhibit late phase autophagy. The goal of our study is to assess the safety, tolerability and activity of combining CQ/HCQ with CG in advanced solid tumor patients who either progressed on other therapies or in whom CG is a therapeutic option. Methods: This single institution phase 1 dose-escalation study was designed to evaluate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CQ, later substituted with HCQ, in combination with CG in patients with previously treated advanced solid tumors. Secondary objectives were to determine ORR, PFS and OS. A starting dose of 50 mg of CQ/HCQ was used in conjunction with CG, and increased in increments of 50 mg in each dose cohort. Grade 3 or greater toxicity that is treatment-related, and was not self-limited, or controlled in less than 7 days was considered dose limiting toxicity (DLT). Results: Twenty-three patients were enrolled with a median follow up of 6 months. HCQ 100 mg was found to be the MTD in combination with CG with ≥Grade 3 thrombocytopenia and/or neutropenia as dose-limiting. Median OS was 11 months, and the 1- and 3- year overall survival rates were 30% and 7%, respectively. Median progression free survival was 5 months and the 6-, 12-, and 18-months progression-free survivals were 48%, 21% and 14%, respectively (Table). Conclusions: The MTD identified for CQ/HCQ was lower than previously reported with concomitant use of chemotherapeutic regimes, likely due to the myelosuppressive nature of CG. Clinical trial information: NCT02071537. [Table: see text]

3611 Background: TP-1287 is a an orally bioavailable phosphate prodrug of alvocidib, a cyclin dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) inhibitor. TP-1287 exhibits potent inhibition of intracellular kinases including CDK9. Inhibition of CDK9 leads to downregulation of the BCL-2 family member, MCL-1, which in turn inhibits tumor growth in preclinical animal models of prostate, breast, and lung carcinomas. Methods: This is a 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-1287 in patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients will be added at the maximum tolerated dose (i.e. expansion cohort) to test TP-1287 as a single agent in patients with castrate resistant prostate cancer. Results: Twenty-two patients who were enrolled between December 2018 and January 2020 received a range of doses from 1 mg QD to 11 mg BID over 7 cohorts. Data are available for 20 patients as of the data cutoff date. TP-1287 plasma PK Cmax and AUC increased in near linear fashion over cohorts 1 thru 6, reaching 80 ng/mL and 499.3 ng*h/mL in cohort 6 for Cmax and AUC, respectively. TP-1287 treatment resulted in dose-dependent reductions of phospho-RNA Pol II, consistent with CDK9 inhibition, as measured by a flow cytometric assay assessing pharmacodynamic changes in phosphorylation state in PBMCs. The most frequently observed Grade 3 AE was unrelated anemia in 2 patients. All other events of Grade 3 (9 events/7 patients) and Grade 4 (1 event/seizure with new CNS mets) were unlikely related or unrelated. Clinical benefit was seen in one sarcoma patient with PR (15+cycles), one RCC patient with SD (7+cycles) and 2 bladder cancer patients with SD (6 and 8 cycles). Conclusions: These findings suggest that TP-1287 is tolerated as a monotherapy in patients with heavily pretreated, relapsed, refractory solid tumors and further clinical development in selected indications is warranted.

3592 Background: Sunitinib malate (SU) is an oral, multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor of VEGFRs, PDGFRs, KIT, RET, and FLT3, approved internationally for the treatment of advanced RCC and imatinib-resistant or -intolerant GIST. This phase I study assesses the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of SU in combination with capecitabine (C). Methods: Pts with advanced solid tumors not amenable to curative therapy, previously treated with =2 prior chemotherapy regimens, and ECOG PS =1 were eligible. Prior antiangiogenic therapy was not permitted. Three SU schedules were evaluated: 4 wks on treatment followed by 2 wks off in 6-wk cycles (4/2 schedule); 2 wks on followed by 1 wk off in 3-wk cycles (2/1 schedule), and continuous dosing (CD schedule). In all cases C was administered orally bid on days 1–14. SU and C doses were alternately escalated in serial pt cohorts to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SU for all schedules using a standard 3 + 3 design. PK and antitumor efficacy were also assessed. Results: A total of 50 pts have been enrolled; 28 pts have been treated on the 4/2 schedule: SU 50 mg + C 1,000 mg/m2, and SU 37.5 mg + C 1,250 mg/m2 were not tolerated. Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) included: grade 3 myalgia (n=1), grade 3 fatigue (n=2), and grade 3 hand- foot syndrome (n=2). The MTD for the 4/2 schedule was SU 37.5 mg/day + C 1,000 mg/m2. No DLTs nor dose reductions were observed among 9 pts treated at the MTD. Preliminary PK data do not indicate drug-drug interactions between SU and C. 3 pts (1 each with breast cancer, neuroendocrine carcinoma, and thyroid carcinoma) achieved confirmed partial responses. On the 2/1 schedule patients are being accrued to SU 37.5 or 50 mg + C 1,000 mg/m2 and doses of SU 37.5 mg + C 1,000 mg/m2 or SU 25 mg + C 1,250 mg/m2 are being explored on the CD schedule. Conclusions: The combination of SU 37.5 mg/day (4/2 schedule) with C 1,000 mg/m2 in pts with advanced solid tumors appears tolerable. SU may be administered in combination with C with no apparent drug-drug interaction. Subsequent cohorts will define the MTD of SU administered on the 2/1 and CD schedules. Further studies of this combination in breast cancer are warranted. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

e13077 Background: Oprozomib (ONX0912), a structural analog of carfilzomib, is an orally bioavailable proteasome inhibitor that irreversibly binds to its target and is being evaluated in hematologic malignancies and solid tumors (ST). In a dose-escalation study of once-daily (qd) ONX0912, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was 150 mg/d. The protocol was subsequently amended to investigate the effects of a split-dose schedule. Presented here are the interim results from this patient (pt) group. Methods: This is an ongoing, phase 1 study in pts with advanced refractory or recurrent ST. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ONX0912 and determine the MTD. ONX0912 is administered for 5 consecutive days in 14-day cycles. For pts under the amended regimen, treatment is initiated at 60 mg BID, with 4–6 h between doses. Daily doses are escalated in 30 mg increments in successive groups of 3 pts. Groups are expanded to include 6 pts in the event of a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) or if the MTD is reached. All AEs, including serious AEs (SAEs), are defined per protocol and collected from screening to 30 days after the last dose. Results: 13 pts received a split dose of ONX0912 (4 pts: 60 mg BID; 3 pts: 90/60 mg; 6 pts: 90 mg BID). At least 1 dose reduction was required by 1 pt in the 90/60 mg group and 2 pts in the 90 mg BID group. 9 pts reported treatment-related GI AEs (vomiting, n=9; nausea, n=8; diarrhea, n=5). 2 SAEs, arthralgia and mental status change, were reported at 60 mg BID. 2 SAEs resulting in a dose delay were reported at 90/60 mg (Grade 3/4 anemia [ongoing, also required a dose reduction] and reversible fatigue). There was 1 DLT at 90 mg BID (Grade 3 reversible hypophosphatemia), and this cohort was therefore expanded. Treatment-related vomiting led to discontinuation for 1 patient at 60 mg BID. No AEs led to early withdrawal, and no deaths have been reported in the study. Conclusions: With qd administration, the MTD of ONX0912 was established at 150 mg/d. However, the MTD has not been reached on the split-dose regimen at cumulative doses up to 180 mg/d (90 mg BID). GI AEs were the most common treatment-related AEs. Based on these preliminary observations, split-dose ONX0912 may improve tolerability over qd dosing.

3551 Background: AMG102 is a fully human IgG2 monoclonal antibody against HGF that prevents tumorigenesis in preclinical models through blockade of the HGF/c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase pathway. We describe interim results from the first-in-human study of AMG102. Methods: This ongoing phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation study is evaluating safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary pharmacodynamics (PD) of AMG102 after single and multiple intravenous doses in pts with advanced solid tumors. Sequential dose cohorts of 4–6 pts were administered AMG102 at 0.5, 1, 3, 5, 10, or 20 mg/kg. Pts received a single dose, followed by a 4-wk treatment- free period during which safety and PK were assessed. If no dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) was observed, treatment was resumed every 2 wks at the same dose until pts exhibited drug intolerance or disease progression. Results: As of 10 August 2006, 31 pts have been treated with AMG102 at doses up to 20 mg/kg ( Table ). AMG102 appears to be well tolerated. One pt with non-small cell lung cancer had a grade 3 DLT of dyspnea/hypoxia after the first dose (0.5 mg/kg); a second pt with pancreatic cancer had a grade 3 DLT/serious adverse event of gastrointestinal hemorrhage after the first dose (1 mg/kg). The most frequently reported, treatment-related adverse events (AEs) have been fatigue (13%), constipation (10%), anorexia (6%), nausea (6%), and vomiting (6%). No anti-AMG102 antibodies have been detected. Initial PK analysis indicates approximately linear PK in the dose range of 0.5 to 20 mg/kg. The overall mean (SD) [median] clearance and half-life estimates based on day-1 dosing were 12.1 (5.21) [10.7] mL/hr and 15.4 (5.84) [15.5] days, respectively. Tumor response is described ( Table ). Conclusions: In this study, interim results suggest that AMG102 at doses up to 20 mg/kg appears to be well-tolerated, with preliminary PK data supporting every-2-wk administration.

3015 Background: BPM 31510 is a novel small molecule that targets the metabolic machinery of the cancer microenvironment to reverse the aerobic glycolytic phenotype of cancer cells. Effector downstream signaling results in re-capitulation of BCL-2 mediated apoptosis and disruption in tumor vasculature by modulation of VEGF. (NR Narain et al., Proceedings of AACR Meeting Abstracts 2011). Methods: A standard 3+3 phase I, dose-escalation study design was used in patients with advanced solid tumors refractory to standard treatment. Primary objectives were establishment of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and safety/pharmacokinetic (PK) correlates. Secondary objectives included exploratory pharmacodynamics (PD) and preliminary efficacy (RECIST-1.1) of BPM 31510 in sequential cohorts of 3 to 6 pts. Results: At time of submission, 34 patients with advanced cancer who had failed multiple chemotherapeutic regimens had been enrolled in 7 dose cohorts (ranging from 5.6 mg/kg to 78.2 mg/kg). Patients received a median of 2 cycles (1-7). 2 patients have had grade 3 elevation in PT/INR, otherwise there have been no grade 3/4 treatment related toxicities to date. The pharmacokinetics of BPM 31510 are linear and there were no sex differences in the parameters normalized by dose and body surface area. Tmax and Cmax are associated with the end of the infusion. The values for t1/2 ranged from 2.18 to 13.3 hr, with little or no dependence of t1/2 on dose. Objective tumor responses have been noted at the dose of 58.6mg/kg with 1 partial response (myxoid liposarcoma) and 1 minor response (pleomorphic sarcoma). Six patients (19%) have had disease stabilization (> 4 months). Conclusions: Interim data from this phase I study indicate that BPM 31510 is well tolerated with no dose limiting toxicities to date. A partial response and minor response were observed and correlates with dose escalation. Taken together, there is strong rationale for further clinical development of this compound as an anti-cancer agent.

3010 Background: XMT-1536 is a Dolaflexin ADC targeting the sodium-phosphate cotransporter NaPi2b, expressed in ovarian, non-squamous lung, papillary thyroid, endometrial, papillary renal and salivary duct cancers. Methods: In this ongoing Phase 1 study, pts with solid tumors likely to express NaPi2b, who progressed on standard therapy, are treated with intravenous XMT-1536 using a 3+3 design with a modified Fibonacci escalation. NaPi2b expression by IHC is being examined retrospectively in archived tumors. Primary objectives in dose escalation are safety and tolerability and determination of maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03319628). Results: As of Jan. 28, 2019, 36 pts (22 ovarian, 7 endometrial, 4 NSCLC, 3 other) have received treatment with XMT-1536. Treatment was initially given every 3 weeks (q3w); 20 pts were treated in dose cohorts from 3 to 40 mg/m2. There was one DLT of reversible AST elevation at 40 mg/m2. The dosing interval was then changed to every 4 weeks (q4w), and dose escalation was restarted at 20 mg/m2. There was one DLT of reversible AST elevation at 30 mg/m2 on the q4w schedule. Further followup and dose escalation are ongoing. The most common (≥10% of patients) treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) have been nausea, fatigue, headache, increased AST, anorexia, increased alkaline phosphatase, fever, increased GGT, myalgia, and vomiting. Grade 3 TRAEs were reversible AST increases in 3 patients and increased GGT, decreased lymphocytes, and systolic congestive heart failure in 1 patient each. Treatment-related serious AEs of fever and systolic congestive heart failure occurred in 1 patient each. Among patients dosed at 20 mg/m2 or higher who had restaging scans (n=20), there were 2 PR, in ovarian cancer pts at 30 mg/m2 q3w and 20 mg/m2 q4w, and 11 SD, with disease control maintained for up to 24 weeks. Patient-level results for NaPi2b expression will be presented. The systemic exposure of total payload showed approximately dose-proportional increase. Plasma concentration of free drug payload and its active metabolite were low. Conclusions: XMT-1536 has been well-tolerated up to the 30 mg/m2 dose level with early signs of anti-tumor activity. Dose escalation continues in pts with advanced solid tumors likely to express NaPi2b. Clinical trial information: NCT03319628.

14022 Background: Glufosfamide is glucose linked to isophosphoramide mustard, the active metabolite of ifosfamide. Cancer cells use glucose at a higher rate than normal cells, which may lead to preferential metabolic targeting by GLU. GLU has shown activity in patients (pts) with pancreatic cancer in Phase 1/2 studies with the dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) being nephrotoxicity and neutropenia. The MTD was 4500 mg/m2. In preclinical studies, GLU has shown additive activity when combined with GEM. The objectives of this study are to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and to evaluate the safety, efficacy and PK of GLU + GEM in advanced solid tumors. Methods: Eligible pts had Karnofsky Performance Status ≥70, no prior GEM, at least one lesion by RECIST, creatinine clearance (CrCL) ≥60 mL/min and acceptable hematologic and liver function. Cohorts of 3–6 patients were treated with GLU 1500–4500 mg/m2 IV over 4 hours on Day 1 and GEM 1000 mg/m2 IV over 30 minutes on Days 1, 8 and 15 of every 28-day cycle for up to 6 cycles. CT scans were obtained every 8 weeks. Detailed PK sampling was performed. Results: Nineteen pts with pancreatic (8), gall bladder (4) and other (7) cancers were enrolled. Two DLTs have occurred: Grade 3 fatigue at 2500 mg/m2 and Grade 4 thrombocytopenia at 4500 mg/m2. Both cohorts were expanded. No DLTs occurred in the 1500 or 3500 mg/m2 cohorts. Three pts completed all 6 cycles and 3 pts continue on study. Reasons for early discontinuation were progressive disease (10), clinical deterioration (1), AE (1) and death (1). Grade 3/4 neutropenia occurred in 7 pts (5 during Cycle 1) and Grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia in 5 pts (2 during Cycle 1). The CrCL fell below 60 mL/min in one patient. No objective tumor responses have been reported; 10 of 18 (56%) evaluable pts had stable disease (SD) at 8 weeks, including 1 pt with heavily pretreated ovarian cancer with ongoing SD after 8 months on therapy. PK analyses suggest no interaction between GLU and GEM. Conclusions: Phase 1 data indicate that full dose GLU (4500 mg/m2) can be given safely in combination with GEM. Both early and delayed Grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia and neutropenia have been observed. A Phase 2 cohort of 28 pts with pancreatic adenocarcinoma is currently enrolling. Studies with GEM/GLU in other tumor types are planned. [Table: see text]

TPS3163 Background: FF-10832 (832) is a liposomal formulation of gemcitabine (GEM) that demonstrates a prolonged half-life and preferential uptake in tumor vs normal tissues and marrow in pre-clinical models. Macrophage uptake has been shown in the tumor microenvironment (TME), with subsequent GEM release in tumor cells. This relative selectivity and anti-tumor immunological changes observed in the TME may lead to decreased toxicity and increased efficacy compared to GEM. Ferumoxytol (FMX) may be a surrogate for nanoparticle penetration into tissue and is being examined as a potential correlate for activity. Methods: This ongoing Phase 1, 3+3 dose-escalation study of 832 will determine the safety profile, maximum tolerated dose, dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) and recommended Phase 2 dose, and will be followed by expansion. Enrollment of up to 60 patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors is planned. Pre-treatment (tx) FMX MRI scans are performed, followed by 832 administration on Days 1 &15 of each 28-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. In addition to standard biomarker and imaging evaluations, change in macrophage polarity, myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) and regulatory T cell populations are being investigatedin peripheral blood and tumor tissue. Clinical trial information: NCT03440450.

3093 Background: E is a new marine compound that has shown synergism with T in vitro even in T-resistant non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines. Based on these findings, a phase I clinical trial was undertaken to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended dose (RD) of E (3-h iv, days 1, 8 and 15) followed by T (once daily) in 3-week cycles. Secondary objectives were evaluation of safety and feasibility, PK and preliminary efficacy results. Methods: Patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors with no standard therapeutic option were recruited. Cohorts of 3-6 pts were included at each dose level (DL), with escalating doses of E in increments of 25-50% according to toxicities, and 2 different T doses (100 and 150 mg/day). Results: Thirty pts (median age, 57 years; 19 females) were evaluable. Main tumor types included NSCLC, colorectal, melanoma, and ovarian cancer. Six DLs were assessed. Starting DL was E 0.33 mg + T 100mg. One dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) out of 6 pts (grade 3 bilirubin increase) was observed at DL3 (E 0.75 mg + T 150 mg). Another DLT (dose omissions due to ALT increase) was found at DL6 (E 2.25 mg + T 100 mg). Frequent toxicities were diarrhea (53%), nausea (23%), vomiting (33%), rash (47%), pruritus (43%), dry skin (27%) and acneiform dermatitis (17%). Grade 3/4 toxicities included diarrhea (2 pts), rash (2 pts) and pruritus (1 pts). Main biochemical abnormalities were ALT (grade 3/4 in 4 pts) and total bilirubin increase (grade 3 in 2 pts). No severe hematological abnormalities were observed. Most toxicities were related to T; therefore, T dose was reduced to 100 mg/day. No PK interaction between E and T was observed. No objective responses were reported. Six pts attained stable disease >3 months (3 NSCLC; 1 ovarian cancer, 1 colorectal cancer, 1 invasive thymoma). Conclusions: E + T was a manageable combination; however, the difficulty of combining E with the standard dose of T (150mg) and the lack of activity made this combination unattractive for further development in the current schedule. Possibly, other schedules may demonstrate more efficacy.
