RESUMEN
PURPOSE: In phase I studies with oral CI-1033, dose-limiting toxicities were primarily gastrointestinal, supporting the exploration of i.v. dosing to achieve optimal drug exposures by increasing bioavailability. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Fifty-three patients with advanced nonhematologic malignancies received i.v. CI-1033 via 30-minute infusions (10-500 mg) on a thrice-weekly schedule. Pharmacokinetic samples were collected on days 1 and 8 and evaluated using noncompartmental analysis. RESULTS: Dose levels evaluated were 10, 20, 30, 45, 67.5, 100, 150, 225, 337.5, and 500 mg. The maximum administered dose was 500 mg, whereas the maximum tolerated dose was 225 mg. The most common treatment-related grade 1 to 2 adverse events were rashes (38% of patients), nausea (17%), vomiting (17%), stomatitis (14%), and diarrhea (13%). Most common grade 3 adverse events were hypersensitivity reactions (7.5%), rashes (3.8%), and diarrhea (3.8%). No grade 4 toxicities were observed. Ten of the 53 (19%) patients had disease stabilization at their first efficacy evaluation visit (including two with minor responses). A 5- to 10-fold increase in i.v. C(max) was noted with a 3-fold increase in AUC compared with oral CI-1033 at equivalent doses. Treatment-related gastrointestinal adverse events were notably less frequent with this i.v. regimen. CONCLUSIONS: CI-1033 was safely given i.v. up to 225 mg/dose on a thrice-weekly schedule, with evidence of antitumor activity. At equivalent doses, the bioavailability of i.v. CI-1033 is thrice that of the oral formulation. Treatment with i.v. CI-1033 is feasible and may be warranted when increased drug exposures are desired.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this phase I clinical trial was to determine the maximum-tolerated dose and toxicity of CP-609,754 in patients with solid tumors refractory to standard therapies, to determine the cellular effects of CP-609,754 on its molecular target (farnesyltransferase), and to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of this agent. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Consenting patients with adequate bone marrow, liver, and renal function were enrolled with an accelerated dose strategy with single-patient parallel cohorts in whom the drug was given orally either once or twice daily. Once a dose-limiting toxicity was encountered or two patients developed Common Toxicity Criteria > or = grade 2 toxicities, a modified Fibonacci sequence was initiated. Blood samples were collected during cycle 1 for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses. RESULTS: A total of 68 cycles of CP-609,754 was administered to 21 patients enrolled in this study. The dose escalation was from 20 mg once daily to 640 mg twice per day, and at the highest dose level, one of six patients developed a dose-limiting toxicity of grade 3 neuropathy. The drug was otherwise well tolerated, and the maximum-tolerated dose was not reached because of the large number of tablets that would have been required for additional dose escalation. Pharmacokinetic analyses showed a proportional increase in exposure with dose, rapid oral absorption, and a half-life of approximately 3 hours. Pharmacodynamic results predict a 95% maximal inhibition of peripheral blood mononuclear cell farnesyltransferase activity 2 hours postdose, on average, with a dose of 400 mg twice per day of CP-609,754. CONCLUSIONS: On the basis of the safety findings and the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analyses, the RP2D of CP-609,754 is > or =640 mg twice per day.

We report a single center phase II trial of sequential vaccination followed with vaccine plus interleukin-2 (IL-2). Vaccination consisted of autologous cells cultured from primary tumor or resected metastasis, transduced to express B7.1 surface molecule and then irradiated. The vaccine would hypothetically costimulate tumor-reactive T cells before IL-2 exposure. Treatment plan was 3 subcutaneous vaccine injections at 4-week intervals and subcutaneous IL-2 treatment for 6 weeks starting at week 7. Sixty-six patients enrolled, of whom 39 received at least 1 vaccine; most observed toxicity was attributable to IL-2 not vaccine; best responses were 3% pathologic complete response, 5% partial response, 64% stable disease, and 28% disease progression. Median survival was 21.8 months (95% confidence interval 17.8 to 29.6). Significant postvaccination increases in IFN-gamma responses to autologous tumor were observed in 2/26 cases. Eighty-one percent of posttreatment subdermal delayed-type hypersensitivity tests (using nontransduced, irradiated autologous tumor cells) had biopsies demonstrating injection site lymphocytic infiltration. Post hoc comparison of the median survival of subjects whose biopsies had lymphocytic infiltration appears longer than in the 19% noninfiltrated (28.4 vs. 17.8 mo, P=0.045, two-sided log-rank test). The single arm design precludes conclusive comparison of objective response rates (not different here) or median survival (longer here) versus those of historical series using similar IL-2 schedules alone. Better outcomes could be logically associated to vaccine response (detectable lymphocytic infiltrates) or to random events that a single arm study design cannot address. This vaccine approach may merit further clinical development.
