RESUMO
STUDY AIM: ModraDoc006, an oral formulation of docetaxel, is co-administered with the cytochrome P450-3A4 and P-glycoprotein inhibitor, ritonavir (r): ModraDoc006/r. The preliminary efficacy and safety of oral ModraDoc006/r was evaluated in a global randomized phase II trial and compared to the current standard chemotherapy regimen of intravenous (i.v.) docetaxel and prednisone. METHODS: 103 mCRPC patients, chemotherapy-naïve with/without abiraterone and/or enzalutamide pretreated, with adequate organ function and evaluable disease per RECIST v1.1 and PCWG3 guidelines were randomized 1:1 into two cohorts. In Cohort 1, 49 patients received docetaxel 75 mg/m2 i.v. every 3 weeks (Q3W). In Cohort 2, 52 patients received ModraDoc006/r; 21 patients with a starting dose of ModraDoc006 30 mg with ritonavir 200 mg in the morning and ModraDoc006 20 mg with ritonavir 100 mg in the evening (30-20/200-100 mg) bi-daily-once-weekly (BIDW) on Days 1, 8, and 15 of a 21-day cycle. To alleviate tolerability, the starting dose was amended to ModraDoc006/r 20-20/200-100 mg in another 31 patients. All patients received prednisone 10 mg daily. Primary endpoint was rPFS. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in rPFS between the 2 arms (p = 0.1465). Median rPFS was 9.5 months and 11.1 months (95% CI) for ModraDoc006/r and i.v. docetaxel, respectively. Partial response was noted in 44.1% and 38.7% measurable disease patients, and 50% decline of PSA was seen in 23 (50%) and 26 (56.5%) evaluable cases treated with ModraDoc006/r and i.v. docetaxel, respectively. The safety profile of ModraDoc006/r 20-20/200-100 mg dose was significantly better than i.v. docetaxel, with mild (mostly Grade 1) gastrointestinal toxicities, no hematologic adverse events, and neuropathy and alopecia incidence of 11.5% and 25%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: ModraDoc006/r potentially represents a widely applicable, convenient, effective, and better tolerated oral taxane therapy option for mCRPC. Further investigation of ModraDoc006/r in a large randomized trial is warranted.

BACKGROUND: ModraDoc006 is an oral formulation of docetaxel, which is co-administered with the cytochrome P450 3A4 and P-glycoprotein inhibitor ritonavir (r): ModraDoc006/r. Weekly treatment with ModraDoc006/r had been evaluated in phase I trials in patients with different types of advanced solid tumors, but up to this point in time not in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). AIM: We assessed safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of ModraDoc006/r to establish the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) in patients with mCRPC. METHODS: mCRPC patients, treatment naïve or following abiraterone or enzalutamide treatment, were included. Dose-escalation of ModraDoc006/r was based on safety and docetaxel PK. Antitumor activity was assessed by serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and radiological evaluation. RESULTS: Cohort 1 (n = 5) received once weekly ModraDoc006 30 mg with ritonavir 100 mg in the morning, and ModraDoc006 20 mg with ritonavir 100 mg in the evening (30-20/100-100). The mean docetaxel area under the plasma concentration-time curve (mAUC0-inf) was 461 ng/mL × h with 1 dose limiting toxicity (DLT); grade 3 alanine transferase increase. In cohort 2 (n = 6, ModraDoc006/r 30-20/200-200), the mAUC0-inf was 1687 ng/mL × h with 2 DLTs; grade 3 diarrhea and mucositis. In cohort 3A (n = 6, ModraDoc006/r 30-20/200-100), the mAUC0-inf was 1517 ng/mL × h with 1 DLT; grade 3 diarrhea. In cohort 3B (n = 3, ModraDoc006/r 20-20/200-100), the mAUC0-inf was 558 ng/mL × h without DLTs. The mAUC0-inf exceeded estimated exposures of intravenous docetaxel in cohort 2 and 3A, was lower in cohort 1 and was in range in cohort 3B. PSA decreases of >50% occurred in 6/10 evaluable patients throughout the various cohorts. In five radiological evaluable patients, two confirmed partial responses were observed. CONCLUSION: The RP2D was established at weekly ModraDoc006/r 30-20/200-100. Observed PSA and radiological responses suggest promising clinical activity. These results have led to an ongoing randomized Phase 2b study, comparing weekly ModraDoc006/r with 3-weekly IV docetaxel in patients with mCRPC.

INTRODUCTION: ModraDoc006 is a novel docetaxel tablet formulation that is co-administrated with the cytochrome P450 3A4 and P-glycoprotein inhibitor ritonavir (r): ModraDoc006/r. OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the effect of food consumed prior to administration of ModraDoc006/r on the pharmacokinetics of docetaxel and ritonavir. METHODS: Patients with advanced solid tumours were enrolled in this randomized crossover study to receive ModraDoc006/r in a fasted state in week 1 and after a standardized high-fat meal in week 2 and vice versa. Pharmacokinetic sampling was conducted until 48 h after both study drug administrations. Docetaxel and ritonavir plasma concentrations were determined using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. Safety was evaluated with the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 4.03. RESULTS: In total, 16 patients completed the food-effect study. The geometric mean ratio (GMR) for the docetaxel area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC)0-48, AUC0-inf and maximum concentration (Cmax) were 1.11 (90% confidence interval [CI] 0.93-1.33), 1.19 (90% CI 1.00-1.41) and 1.07 (90% CI 0.81-1.42) in fed versus fasted conditions, respectively. For the ritonavir Cmax, the GMR was 0.79 (90% CI 0.69-0.90), whereas the AUC0-48 and AUC0-inf were bioequivalent. The most frequent treatment-related toxicities were grade ≤ 2 diarrhoea and fatigue. Hypokalaemia was the only observed treatment-related grade 3 toxicity. CONCLUSIONS: The docetaxel and ritonavir exposure were not bioequivalent, as consumption of a high-fat meal prior to administration of ModraDoc006/r resulted in a slightly higher docetaxel exposure and lower ritonavir Cmax. Since docetaxel exposure is the only clinically relevant parameter in our patient population, the overall conclusion is that combined ModraDoc006 and ritonavir treatment may be slightly affected by concomitant intake of a high-fat meal. In view of the small effect, it is most likely that the intake of a light meal will not affect the systemic exposure to docetaxel. CLINICALTRIALS.

PURPOSE: Oral bioavailability of docetaxel is poor. Absorption could be improved by development of pharmaceutical formulations based on docetaxel solid dispersions, denoted ModraDoc001 capsule and ModraDoc006 tablet (both 10 mg) and coadministration of ritonavir, an inhibitor of CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein. In this study, the safety, MTD, recommended phase II dose (RP2D), pharmacokinetics, and preliminary antitumor activity of oral docetaxel combined with ritonavir in a once-weekly continuous schedule was investigated. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients with metastatic solid tumors were included. Dose escalation was performed using a classical 3+3 design. Pharmacokinetic sampling was performed for up to 48 hours after drug administration. Safety was evaluated using CTCAE v3.0. Antitumor activity was assessed according to RECIST v1.0. RESULTS: Sixty-seven patients were treated at weekly docetaxel dosages ranging from 30 to 80 mg in combination with 100- or 200-mg ritonavir. Most common toxicities were nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and fatigue, mostly of grade 1-2 severity. No hypersensitivity reactions were observed. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC0-48) of docetaxel at the RP2D of once-weekly 60-mg ModraDoc001 capsule with 100-mg ritonavir was 1,000 ± 687 ng/mL/hour and for once-weekly 60-mg ModraDoc006 tablet with 100-mg ritonavir, the AUC0-48 was 1,790 ± 819 ng/mL/hour. Nine partial responses were reported as best response to treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Oral administration of once-weekly docetaxel as ModraDoc001 capsule or ModraDoc006 tablet in combination with ritonavir is feasible. The RP2D for both formulations is 60-mg ModraDoc with 100-mg ritonavir. Antitumor activity is considered promising.

INTRODUCTION: Two solid dispersions of docetaxel (denoted ModraDoc001 capsule and ModraDoc006 tablet (both 10 mg)) were co-administered with 100 mg ritonavir (/r) and investigated in a bi-daily once weekly (BIDW) schedule. Safety, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics (PK) and preliminary activity were explored. METHODS: Adult patients with metastatic solid tumours were included in two dose-escalation arms. PK sampling was performed during the first week and the second or third week. Safety was evaluated using US National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 3.0. Antitumour activity was assessed every 6 weeks according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) version 1.0. RESULTS: ModraDoc001 capsule/r and ModraDoc006 tablet/r were administered to 17 and 28 patients, respectively. The most common adverse events were nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and fatigue, mostly of grade 1-2 severity. Grade 3/4 neutropenia/neutropenic fever was observed in 2 patients (4%). The MTD was determined as 20/20 mg ModraDoc001/r and 30/20 mg ModraDoc006/r (morning/afternoon dose) once weekly. The mean area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC0-48) ± standard deviation at the MTD for ModraDoc001/r and ModraDoc006/r were 686 ± 388 ng/ml*h and 1126 ± 382 ng/ml*h, respectively. Five partial responses were reported as best response to treatment. CONCLUSION: Oral administration of BIDW ModraDoc001/r or ModraDoc006/r is feasible. The once weekly 30/20 mg ModraDoc006 tablet/r dose-level was selected for future clinical development. Antitumour activity is promising.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: St John's wort (SJW), a herbal antidepressant, is commonly used by cancer patients, and its component hyperforin is a known inducer of the cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoenzyme 3A4. Here, the potential pharmacokinetic interaction between SJW and the sensitive CYP3A4 substrate docetaxel was investigated. METHODS: In ten evaluable cancer patients, the pharmacokinetics of docetaxel (135 mg administered intravenously over 60 min) were compared before and after 14 days of supplementation with SJW (300 mg extract [Hyperiplant(®)] three times daily). RESULTS: SJW supplementation resulted in a statistically significant decrease in the mean area under the docetaxel plasma concentration-time curve extrapolated to infinity (AUC∞) from 3,035 ± 756 to 2,682 ± 717 ng · h/mL (P = 0.045). Furthermore, docetaxel clearance significantly increased from 47.2 to 53.7 L/h (P = 0.045) after SJW intake. The maximum plasma concentration and elimination half-life of docetaxel were (non-significantly) decreased after SJW supplementation. In addition, the incidence of docetaxel-related toxicities was lower after SJW supplementation. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that concomitant use of docetaxel and the applied SJW product should be avoided to prevent potential undertreatment of cancer patients.

AIMS: The herbal medicine Echinacea purpurea (E. purpurea) has been shown to induce cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) both in vitro and in humans. This study explored whether E. purpurea affects the pharmacokinetics of the CYP3A4 substrate docetaxel in cancer patients. METHODS: Ten evaluable cancer patients received docetaxel (135 mg, 60 min IV infusion) before intake of a commercially available E. purpurea extract (20 oral drops three times daily) and 3 weeks later after a 14 day supplementation period with E. purpurea. In both cycles, pharmacokinetic parameters of docetaxel were determined. RESULTS: Before and after supplementation with E. purpurea, the mean area under the plasma concentration-time curve of docetaxel was 3278 ± 1086 and 3480 ± 1285 ng ml(-1) h, respectively. This result was statistically not significant. Nonsignificant alterations were also observed for the elimination half-life (from 30.8 ± 19.7 to 25.6 ± 5.9 h, P = 0.56) and maximum plasma concentration of docetaxel (from 2224 ± 609 to 2097 ± 925 ng ml(-1) , P = 0.30). CONCLUSIONS: The multiple treatment of E. purpurea did not significantly alter the pharmacokinetics of docetaxel in this study. The applied E. purpurea product at the recommended dose may be combined safely with docetaxel in cancer patients.

PURPOSE: To enhance the systemic exposure to oral docetaxel by coadministration of ritonavir, an efficacious inhibitor of CYP 3A4 with minor P-glycoprotein inhibiting effects, in patients with cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: A proof-of-concept study was carried out in 12 patients with solid tumors. The first cohort of patients (n = 4) received 10 mg and the subsequent cohort (n = 8) 100 mg of oral docetaxel, coadministered with 100 mg oral ritonavir randomized simultaneously or ritonavir given 60 minutes before docetaxel on days 1 and 8. On day 15 or 22, patients received 100 mg i.v. docetaxel. RESULTS: The area under the plasma concentration-time curve in patients who received 10 mg oral docetaxel in combination with ritonavir was low, and the dose could safely be increased to 100 mg. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve in patients who received 100 mg oral docetaxel combined with ritonavir simultaneously or ritonavir given 60 minutes before docetaxel was 2.4 +/- 1.5 and 2.8 +/- 1.4 mg/h/L, respectively, compared with 1.9 +/- 0.4 mg/h/L after i.v. docetaxel. The apparent oral bioavailability of docetaxel combined with ritonavir simultaneously or ritonavir given 60 minutes before docetaxel was 131% +/- 90% and 161% +/- 91%, respectively. The oral combination of docetaxel and ritonavir was well tolerated. CONCLUSION: Coadministration of ritonavir significantly enhanced the apparent oral bioavailability of docetaxel. These data are promising and form the basis for further development of a clinically applicable oral formulation of docetaxel combined with ritonavir.

PURPOSE: This phase I study was designed to determine the optimally tolerated regimen (OTR), safety, and clinical activity of lapatinib in combination with FOLFOX4 [oxaliplatin/leucovorin/5-fluorouracil (5-FU)] in patients with solid tumors. Furthermore, the pharmacokinetics of lapatinib, oxaliplatin, and 5-FU when given alone and in combination were evaluated. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: This study was conducted in two parts. Part 1 was designed to determine the OTR and part 2 was the pharmacokinetic part of the study. Lapatinib was administered once daily for the entire duration of the study. Leucovorin and oxaliplatin were given concurrently over 2 h as an i.v. infusion, after which 5-FU was given as a bolus followed by continuous infusion over 22 h on day 1. 5-FU and leucovorin administration were repeated in an identical manner on day 2. Cycles were repeated every 2 weeks. Once the OTR was determined, it was to become the dose level for patients included in the pharmacokinetic part of the study. RESULTS: A total of 34 patients was treated in this study. No dose-limiting toxicities were observed and the OTR was established at 1,500 mg/d lapatinib in combination with the standard FOLFOX4 regimen. Nonhematologic toxicities consisted mainly of nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, fatigue, neuropathy, and mucositis. The most important hematologic toxicity was neutropenia. No drug-drug interactions between lapatinib and the FOLFOX4 regimen were observed. CONCLUSION: Lapatinib can be safely administered in combination with the standard FOLFOX4 regimen. Further studies are warranted to explore the potential additive antitumor effect of lapatinib in combination with the FOLFOX4 regimen.
