Abstract 2961
Background
YF-H-2015005, a new type of CXCR4 antagonist, has demonstrated an ability to mobilize CD34+ cells in peripheral blood in pre-clinical studies. In this study, we evaluated the safety and efficacy of YF-H-2015005, as well as its pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) characteristics when administered with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) in patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).
Methods
This phase I, open-label, single arm study enrolled patients who had HNL, aged 18 to 65 years, and eligible for autologous stem cell transplantation. The stem cell mobilization regimen used was G-CSF (10 mg/kg/day subcutaneously) administration in the morning for up to 8 days, and YF-H-2015005 (0.24 mg/kg subcutaneously) initialed in the evening of the fourth day of G-CSF administration, and then continued for up to 4 days. Apheresis was initiated 9 to 10 hours after each evening dose of YF-H-2015005, and after the morning dose of G-CSF. Apheresis was repeated for up to 4 days or until ≥ 2 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg had been collected.
Results
A total of 15 patients (11 men and 4 women; median age 51 years, range 32-64 years) were enrolled in the study. Our PK data showed that YF-H-2015005 was rapidly absorbed after s.c. administration with a median Tmax of 0.5 hour, and then was rapidly cleared with a terminal half-life of 5.04 ± 1.00 hours. After the first dose of YF-H-2015005, a mean 2.0-fold to 2.9-fold increase in peripheral blood CD34+ cells from baseline was observed after 2 to 24 hours, with the maximum increase being observed at 10 hours after dosing. Fourteen (93%) patients reached the minimum target CD34+ cell collection of ≥ 2 × 106 cells/kg required for transplantation. No adverse event ≥ grade 3 or treatment-related serious adverse event occurred.
Conclusions
YF-H-2015005 was safe and effective when used to mobilize CD34+ cells for transplantation in patients with NHL.
