Phase I and pharmacokinetic study of the vascular-disrupting agent CKD-516 (NOV120401) in patients with refractory solid tumors.

ABSTRACT: We report a phase I pharmacological study of an oral formulation of CKD-516, a vascular-disrupting agent, in patients with refractory solid tumors. Twenty-seven patients (16 in the dose-escalation cohort and 11 in the expansion cohort) received a single daily dose (5-25 mg) of CKD-516 five days per week. Nausea (67%) and diarrhea (63%) were the most common treatment-related adverse events. The recommended phase II dose of oral CKD-516 was 20 mg/d (15 mg/d with a body surface area (BSA) <1.65 m2 ). Notably, S-516 half-lives in patients receiving 15-20 mg CKD-516/d significantly differed between patients with and without splenomegaly that is suggestive of portal hypertension associated with liver cirrhosis (6.1 vs 4.6 hours, respectively). Of 11 patients without splenomegaly who completed at least one cycle of a daily CKD-516 dose of either 15 or 20 mg, only one patient (9.1%) suffered from any dose-limiting toxicity. We conclude that a daily oral dose of 15 or 20 mg CKD-516 five days per week could be tolerable in patients without liver cirrhosis.

Project description:Malignant brain tumors, including gliomas, brain metastases and anaplastic meningiomas, are associated with poor prognosis, and represent an unmet medical need. ASA404 (DMXAA), a vascular disrupting agent, has demonstrated promising results in several preclinical tumor models and early phase clinical trials. However, two phase III trials in non-small cell lung cancer reported insufficient results. The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of ASA404 on brain tumors. The effects of ASA404 were evaluated in vitro and in vivo using subcutaneous, and orthotopical models for malignant glioma (U-87, LN-229, U-251, LN-308 and Tu-2449), brain metastasis (HT-29) and malignant meningioma (IOMM-Lee). The acute effects of ASA404 on tumor tissue were analyzed using conventional and immunohistochemical staining techniques [hematoxylin and eosin, MIB-1 antibody/proliferation maker protein Ki-67, cleaved caspase-8, stimulator of interferon genes (STING), ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1]. Furthermore, the sizes of subcutaneous tumors were measured and the symptom-free survival rates of animals with intracranial tumors receiving ASA404 treatment were analyzed. ASA404 demonstrated low toxicity in vitro, but exhibited strong effects on subcutaneous tumors 24 h following a single dose of ASA404 (25 mg/kg). ASA404 induced necrosis, hemorrhages and inhibited the proliferation, and growth of tumors in the subcutaneous glioma models. However, ASA404 failed to demonstrate comparable effects in any of the intracranial tumor models examined and did not result in a prolongation of survival. Expression of STING, the molecular target of ASA404, and infiltration of macrophages, the cells mediating ASA404 activity, did not differ between subcutaneous and intracranial tumors. In conclusion, ASA404 demonstrates clear efficacy in subcutaneous tumor models, but has no relevant activity in orthotopic brain tumor models. The expression of STING and infiltration with macrophages were not determined to be involved in the differential activity observed among tumor models. It is possible that the low penetration of ASA-404 into the brain prevents concentrations sufficient enough reaching the tumor in order to exhibit acute effects in vivo.
