ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) and assess safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and evidence of antitumor activity of RO4929097, a gamma secretase inhibitor of Notch signaling in patients with advanced solid malignancies. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
Patients received escalating doses of RO4929097 orally on two schedules (A) 3 consecutive days per week for 2 weeks every 3 weeks; (B) 7 consecutive days every 3 weeks. To assess reversible CYP3A4 autoinduction, the expanded part of the study tested three dosing schedules (B) as above; modified A, 3 consecutive d/wk for 3 weeks; and (C) continuous daily dosing. Positron emission tomography scans with [(18)F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG-PET) were used to assess tumor metabolic effects.RESULTS:
Patients on schedule A (n = 58), B (n = 47), and C (n = 5; expanded cohort) received 302 cycles of RO4929097. Common grade 1 to 2 toxicities were fatigue, thrombocytopenia, fever, rash, chills, and anorexia. Transient grade 3 hypophosphatemia (dose-limiting toxicity, one patient) and grade 3 pruritus (two patients) were observed at 27 mg and 60 mg, respectively; transient grade 3 asthenia was observed on schedule A at 80 mg (one patient). Tumor responses included one partial response in a patient with colorectal adenocarcinoma with neuroendocrine features, one mixed response (stable disease) in a patient with sarcoma, and one nearly complete FDG-PET response in a patient with melanoma. Effect on CYP3A4 induction was observed.CONCLUSION:
RO4929097 was well tolerated at 270 mg on schedule A and at 135 mg on schedule B; the safety of schedule C has not been fully evaluated. Further studies are warranted on the basis of a favorable safety profile and preliminary evidence of clinical antitumor activity.
