Abstract 3811
Background
LUR is a new agent that exerts antitumor activity through inhibition of trans-activated transcription and modulation of tumor microenvironment. Preclinical synergism/additivity in combination with IRI has been reported, thus prompting the conduct of this trial.
Methods
Phase I trial to evaluate escalating doses of LUR on Day (D) 1 plus a fixed dose of IRI 75 mg/m2 on D1 and D8 every 3 weeks (q3w) in pts with advanced solid tumors, enrolled following a standard 3 + 3 dose escalation design.
Results
39 pts were treated at 5 dose levels (DL); 13 at the recommended dose (RD). 56% were females, 69% had ECOG PS = 1; median age was 58 years; median of 2 prior chemotherapy lines for advanced disease (range, 0 − 4) per pt. RD was defined as LUR 2.0 mg/m2 on D1 + IRI 75 mg/m2 on D1 and D8 q3w + GCSF. Dose-limiting toxicities in Cycle 1 were observed in 2/3 evaluable pts at the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and in 3/13 evaluable pts at the RD. At the MTD and the RD, DLTs were skipping IRI D8 doses due to grade (G) 3-4 neutropenia (n = 3 patients) or G2-4 thrombocytopenia (n = 2). At the RD common G1/2 toxicities were nausea, vomiting, fatigue, diarrhea, anorexia and neuropathy; G3/4 hematological abnormalities comprised neutropenia (33%), but no thrombocytopenia. Objective RECIST responses were documented in 6/34 evaluable pts (18%): 3/11 pts with small cell lung cancer (SCLC), 2/2 pts with endometrial carcinoma (EC) and 1/3 pts with glioblastoma (GB). Most responses (5/12 evaluable patients [42%]) were at the RD. One pt with EC has an ongoing PR after 20 cycles. Prolonged SD > 4 months were observed in pancreatic carcinoma (3/6 pts), soft tissue sarcoma (STS) (5/9 pts) and SCLC (6/11, including 4 with SD for 6, 9, 11 and 26+ months).
Conclusions
The combination of LUR and IRI is well tolerated, with no unexpected toxicities. Myelosuppression was dose-limiting, but predictable and manageable. The RD is LUR 2.0 mg/m2 on D1 + IRI 75 mg/m2 on D1 and D8 q3w with GCSF. Notable antitumor activity was observed, especially in SCLC, EC, GB and STS. Expansion in these indications is warranted.
