RESUMO

Purpose: This phase 1 study aims to evaluate the tolerability and the recommended phase 2 dose of selinexor in Asian patients with advanced or metastatic malignancies. Experimental Design: A total of 105 patients with advanced malignancies were enrolled from two sites in Singapore (National University Hospital and the National Cancer Centre, Singapore) from 24 February 2014 to 14 January 2019. We investigated four dosing schedules of selinexor in a 3 + 3 dose escalation design with an additional Phase 1b expansion cohort. Adverse events were graded with the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v 4.03. Pharmacodynamic assessments included nuclear cytoplasmic localization of p27, XPO1 cargo proteins pre and post selinexor dosing and pharmacokinetic assessments were conducted at doses between 40 and 60 mg/m2. Results: In our Asian patient cohort, dosing at 40 mg/m2 given 2 out of 3 weeks, was the most tolerable for our patients. At this dose level, grade 3 adverse events included fatigue (8%), hyponatremia (23%), vomiting (5%), thrombocytopenia (5%), and anaemia (2%). Selinexor had a rapid oral absorption with median Tmax of 2 h and no PK accumulation after multiple doses of tested regimens. Complete responses were seen in two lymphoma patients. Partial responses were noted in three diffuse large B cell lymphomas, one Hodgkin's lymphoma and thymic carcinoma patient, respectively. Conclusion: Selinexor is tolerated by Asian patients at 40 mg/m2 twice a week given 2 out of 3 weeks. A 1-week drug holiday was needed as our patients could not tolerate the current approved continuous dosing regimens because of persistent grade 3 fatigue, anorexia and hyponatremia.

RESUMO

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) is a common dose-limiting adverse effect of neurotoxic chemotherapeutic agents. Recent studies have suggested clinical utility of limb hypothermia in reducing CIPN. However, conventional cooling methods such as ice packs are unable to provide thermoregulated cooling and cause frostbites. Cooling modalities offering thermoregulation have been developed for sports injury and orthopaedic indications, but not explored for preventing CIPN. This study aims to determine the safety, tolerability and optimal parameters of three cooling modalities for delivery of limb hypothermia in healthy subjects, prior to testing in cancer patients for prevention of CIPN. Healthy subjects underwent limb hypothermia by either: continuous-flow cooling, cryocompression or frozen gloves. Skin temperatures and tolerance scores were monitored. Overall, 58 subjects underwent limb hypothermia. No adverse events were observed barring transient erythema. Both continuous-flow cooling and cryocompression are feasible, safe and tolerable methods for delivery of limb hypothermia. Cryocompression achieved lower skin temperatures than continuous-flow cooling with similar safety profiles. Frozen gloves were minimally tolerated. Cryocompression may provide greater efficacy in preventing CIPN, with clinical trials currently underway.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified 42 loci (P < 5 × 10-8) associated with risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). Expanded consortium efforts facilitating the discovery of additional susceptibility loci may capture unexplained familial risk. METHODS: We conducted a GWAS in European descent CRC cases and control subjects using a discovery-replication design, followed by examination of novel findings in a multiethnic sample (cumulative n = 163 315). In the discovery stage (36 948 case subjects/30 864 control subjects), we identified genetic variants with a minor allele frequency of 1% or greater associated with risk of CRC using logistic regression followed by a fixed-effects inverse variance weighted meta-analysis. All novel independent variants reaching genome-wide statistical significance (two-sided P < 5 × 10-8) were tested for replication in separate European ancestry samples (12 952 case subjects/48 383 control subjects). Next, we examined the generalizability of discovered variants in East Asians, African Americans, and Hispanics (12 085 case subjects/22 083 control subjects). Finally, we examined the contributions of novel risk variants to familial relative risk and examined the prediction capabilities of a polygenic risk score. All statistical tests were two-sided. RESULTS: The discovery GWAS identified 11 variants associated with CRC at P < 5 × 10-8, of which nine (at 4q22.2/5p15.33/5p13.1/6p21.31/6p12.1/10q11.23/12q24.21/16q24.1/20q13.13) independently replicated at a P value of less than .05. Multiethnic follow-up supported the generalizability of discovery findings. These results demonstrated a 14.7% increase in familial relative risk explained by common risk alleles from 10.3% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 7.9% to 13.7%; known variants) to 11.9% (95% CI = 9.2% to 15.5%; known and novel variants). A polygenic risk score identified 4.3% of the population at an odds ratio for developing CRC of at least 2.0. CONCLUSIONS: This study provides insight into the architecture of common genetic variation contributing to CRC etiology and improves risk prediction for individualized screening.
