Project description:BackgroundThis study aimed to provide insights into the real-world use of palbociclib, dose reductions, and drug effectiveness in (older) patients with advanced breast cancer (BC).Patients and methodsPatients with advanced BC treated with palbociclib from 2017 to 2020 were included. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate time to next treatment (TTNT) and overall survival (OS) for patients with or without dose reductions. These clinical outcomes were also compared in subgroup analyses for older patients (≥70 years) and younger patients (<70 years) and for patients discontinuing palbociclib early (<4 administrations).ResultsA total of 598 patients with advanced BC were included, with a median age of 64 years. Palbociclib dose reductions occurred in 33% of all patients. Early discontinuation of palbociclib without dose reductions occurred in 23% of the patients. Patients who required a palbociclib dose reduction were older (median age 67 years vs. 63 years). Patients with dose reductions had a significantly higher TTNT of 16.9 vs. 11.4 months (p < 0.001) and median OS of 29.7 vs. 21.9 months (p = 0.003) compared to patients without dose reductions. The TTNT in older patients was significantly longer (16.9 vs. 11.6 months, p = 0.013) than younger patients, but OS was similar (20.7 vs. 26.7 months, p = 0.051).ConclusionPalbociclib dose reductions occurred in real-world practice similarly to the PALOMA-3 trial. Patients with dose reductions had no poorer outcomes compared to patients not requiring a dose reduction. Older patients treated with palbociclib had more frequent dose reductions, but this did not appear to affect OS.

Project description:Dual antiplatelet therapy, composed of aspirin plus a P2Y12 -receptor antagonist, is the cornerstone of treatment for patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). A number of U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved P2Y12 -receptor antagonists are available for treating patients with ACS, including the thienopyridine compounds clopidogrel and prasugrel. Ticagrelor, the first of a new class of antiplatelet agents, is a noncompetitive, direct-acting P2Y12 -receptor antagonist. Unlike the thienopyridine compounds, ticagrelor does not require metabolism for activity. Also, whereas clopidogrel and prasugrel are irreversible inhibitors of the P2Y12 receptor, ticagrelor binds reversibly to inhibit receptor signaling and subsequent platelet activation. In pharmacodynamic studies, ticagrelor demonstrated faster onset and more potent inhibition of platelet aggregation than clopidogrel. These properties of ticagrelor may contribute to reduced rates of thrombotic outcomes compared with clopidogrel, as demonstrated in a phase III clinical trial. However, in addition to bleeding, distinctive adverse effects of this new chemical entity have not been reported with the thienopyridine P2Y12 -receptor inhibitors. Although ticagrelor represents an advancement in P2Y12 -receptor inhibition therapy, a thorough understanding of this compound as an antiplatelet therapy remains to be elucidated.

Project description:Lessons learnedMET overexpression is uncommon, and positive MET immunohistochemistry (1+/2+) was an independent positive prognostic factor for response rate and progression-free survival. Whether MET overexpression can be considered a potential predictive biomarker and be used as an inclusion criterion is worth investigating in a future study.BackgroundMetatinib tromethamine tablet (metatinib) is a small molecule receptor kinase inhibitor targeting both c-MET and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2. This phase I trial aimed to determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy of metatinib in patients with advanced solid tumors.MethodsEligible patients received a single dose of metatinib in a 3 + 3 dose-escalation design with dose levels of 25-800 mg/day, after a single dose on day 1, then 2 days off, and then a multidose schedule of once-daily doses for 25 consecutive days (days 4-28). Primary endpoints were MTD and safety; secondary and exploratory endpoints included pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, and biomarkers.ResultsEighteen patients (including nine patients with hepatocellular carcinoma [HCC]) received at least one dose of study drug (one patient quit the study without continuous multiple-dose administration after receiving a single dose of metatinib). Hand-foot skin reaction, diarrhea, and liver dysfunction were the DLTs, and 200 mg/day was the MTD. The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were skin toxicity (50%), diarrhea (33.3%), and liver dysfunction (27.8%). Three patients (only one of six in the 200 mg/day cohort; the other two in the 300 mg/day cohort) experienced severe TRAEs: one patient with severe liver dysfunction and two patients with severe liver dysfunction and skin toxicity, respectively. Pharmacokinetics assessment indicated that metatinib was rapidly absorbed and metabolized to the formation of reactive metabolite, SCR-1510, after single-dose administration. The mean time taken to achieve maximum concentration and terminal elimination half-life of SCR-1510 was approximately 2.0-3.0 hours and ranged from 8 to 14 hours. Two patients had partial responses. The objective response rate and disease control rate (DCR) were 11.1% and 61.1%, respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 2.75 months.ConclusionMetatinib administration of 200 mg/day was well tolerated, safe, and effective. The MTD was 200 mg/day, which should be recommended in further investigations.

Project description:BackgroundThe cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor palbociclib, in combination with endocrine therapy (ET), significantly prolonged progression-free survival in women with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative advanced breast cancer (HR+/HER2- ABC) in PALOMA-2 and PALOMA-3. Neutropenia and palbociclib dose reductions/interruptions occurred more frequently in the Japanese versus overall populations. We evaluated neutropenia patterns, palbociclib dose management, and clinical responses after dose reduction in Japanese patients in PALOMA-2 and PALOMA-3 and a single-arm Japanese phase 2 study.MethodsPALOMA-2 and the Japanese phase 2 study enrolled postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor-positive, HER2- ABC who had not received prior systemic therapy for advanced disease; PALOMA-3 enrolled women with HR+/HER2- ABC, regardless of menopausal status, whose disease had progressed after prior ET. Palbociclib (125 mg/day) was administered 3 weeks on/1 week off. Dose reduction/interruption, cycle delay, tumor response, and laboratory-assessed neutropenia were analyzed in Japanese patients who received palbociclib.ResultsA total of 101 Japanese patients received palbociclib + ET. Among Japanese patients in the 3 studies, the frequency of all-grade/grade 3/grade 4 neutropenia was 94%/53%/34%, 100%/69%/21%, and 100%/67%/26%, respectively. Twenty (63%), 28 (67%), and 15 (56%) patients required palbociclib dose reduction. Dose interruption or reduction did not affect palbociclib treatment duration, and durable tumor response was observed despite dose reduction.ConclusionNeutropenia was manageable with dose modifications, without affecting palbociclib treatment duration or efficacy.Trial registrationPfizer (NCT01740427, NCT01684215, NCT01942135).

Project description:PurposeGiven distinct mechanism of actions of enzastaurin and bevacizumab, preclinical studies suggest enhanced antitumor activity in combination. This phase I study assessed the combination's safety and efficacy.Patients and methodsSix advanced cancer patients could be enrolled in each of 11 cohorts. Patients received an enzastaurin loading dose. Oral enzastaurin (500 mg once daily [QD], 250 mg twice daily [BID], 375 mg BID, 500 mg BID, and 750 mg BID) was escalated in each cohort in combination with bevacizumab dosed at 5 mg/kg every 2 weeks, 10 mg/kg every 2 weeks, or 15 mg/kg every 3 weeks until a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) occurred in 2 of 6 patients in any cohort.ResultsSixty-seven patients (31, ovarian cancer [ovcar]) were evaluable for safety and efficacy. Six treatment-related DLTs occurred: grade 3 fatigue (n=4), grade 4 cerebral hemorrhage, and grade 3 elevated aspartate transaminase. Common drug-related toxicities included change in color of urine and stool, fatigue, pain, diarrhea, and nausea. The maximum tolerated dose of enzastaurin was 750 mg BID in combination with any tested bevacizumab dose/schedule. Overall response rate was 19.4 % (32.3 % ovcar). Median time to progression was 3.7 months (95 % confidence interval [CI], 2.7-5.5), with 8.3 months (95 % CI, 3.7-11.1) in ovcar. Overall, 35.9 % (50.4 % ovcar) of patients remained without disease progression after 6 months.ConclusionThe recommended phase II doses of enzastaurin were 500 mg QD up to 500 mg BID with any tested dose/schedule of bevacizumab. This combination demonstrated encouraging clinical activity, particularly in ovcar.

Project description:BackgroundPalbociclib has been approved for marketing in China. However, its effectiveness, safety, and latent variables in the Chinese population require further investigation.MethodsInformation was retrieved from 397 patients with metastatic breast cancer (mBC) who received at least two cycles of palbociclib plus endocrine therapy (PAL plus ET) at eight clinical sites in China. The patients' demographic characteristics, treatment patterns, and adverse events (AEs) were analyzed.ResultsThe objective response rate (ORR) and clinical benefit rate (CBR) for PAL plus ET were 28.97% and 66.25%, respectively. The median PFS was 14.2 months in the whole population. In addition to protein Ki-67 status and sensitivity to ETs, no liver metastases, fewer metastatic sites, an earlier line of therapy, and treatment combined with AI instead of FUL were also considered as independent prognostic factors for PAL treatment. Administration of PAL was generally well tolerated in patients with hormone-receptor-positive and human-epidermal-growth-factor-receptor-2-negative (HR+/HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC). The therapy was safe in the elderly population, which is consistent with the outcomes of the whole population and previous reports.ConclusionsIn this most widely distributed study in China to date, palbociclib combined with ET proved its effectiveness for HR+/HER2- ABC treatment, and adverse events were manageable. Here, we identified some independent prognosis factors, but the mechanism by which these factors influence effectiveness requires further verification.

Project description:Background: Presently, colistin is commercially available in two different forms, namely, colistin sulfate and its sulphomethylated derivative, colistimethate sodium (CMS). However, in the currently reported studies, most of the clinical studies on colistin for parenteral use are referred to as CMS. Data on the pharmacokinetics (PK), clinical efficacy, and side effects of colistin sulfate in clinical use have not been reported. Methods: This retrospective study was performed on carbapenem-resistant organism (CRO)-infected patients treated with colistin sulfate for more than 72 h. The population pharmacokinetic model was developed using the NONMEM program. The clinical outcomes including clinical treatment efficacy, microbiological eradication, and nephrotoxicity were assessed. Monte Carlo simulation was utilized to calculate the probability of target attainment (PTA) in patients with normal or decreased renal function. Results: A total of 42 patients were enrolled, of which 25 (59.52%) patients were considered clinical treatment success and 29 (69.06%) patients had successful bacteria elimination at the end of treatment. Remarkably, no patient developed colistin sulfate-related nephrotoxicity. A total of 112 colistin concentrations with a range of 0.28-6.20 mg/L were included for PK modeling. The PK characteristic of colistin was well illustrated by a one-compartment model with linear elimination, and creatinine clearance (CrCL) was identified as a covariate on the clearance of colistin sulfate that significantly explained inter-individual variability. Monte Carlo simulations showed that the recommended dose regimen of colistin sulfate, according to the label sheet, of a daily dose of 1-1.5 million IU/day, given in 2-3 doses, could attain PTA > 90% for MICs ≤ 0.5 μg/mL, and that a daily dose of 1 million IU/day could pose a risk of subtherapeutic exposure for MIC ≥1 μg/ml in renal healthy patients. Conclusion: Renal function significantly affects the clearance of colistin sulfate. A dose of 750,000 U every 12 h was recommended for pathogens with MIC ≤1 μg/ml. The dosage recommended by the label inserts had a risk of subtherapeutic exposure for pathogens with MIC ≥2 μg/ml. Despite higher exposure to colistin in patients with acute renal insufficiency, dose reduction was not recommended.

Project description:BackgroundThere is scant data from India on efficacy and safety of palbociclib and ribociclib in routine clinical practice.MethodsThis retrospective, observational, single institution study included patients with estrogen and/or progesterone receptor positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) negative metastatic breast cancers, who received palbociclib or ribociclib with any partner endocrine therapy in any line of treatment between January 2016 and June 2019. Data were analyzed for progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and toxicity.ResultsThe study included 101 female patients with median age of 57 (IQR 48-62) years, of whom 80 (79.2%) were postmenopausal, 79 (78.2%) received palbociclib or ribociclib in second- or later-line treatment, 59 (58.4%) received fulvestrant and 41 (40.6%) received an aromatase inhibitor. In first-line treatment, at a median follow-up of 21.7 (0.5-41.9) months, median PFS and OS were 21.1 (95%CI 16.36-not estimable) months and not reached, respectively. In second- or later-line setting, at a median follow-up of 17.2 (0.5-43.7) months, median PFS and OS were 5.98 (95%CI 4.96-7.89) months and 20.2 (95%CI 14.1-not estimable) months, respectively. Grade 3-4 neutropenia and febrile neutropenia were seen in 45 (45.0%) and 9 (9.0%) patients, respectively while dose reduction was required in 32 (31.7%) patients. In multivariable Cox regression analysis, first-line setting (HR 0.49, 95%CI 0.25-0.97, p = 0.043) and ECOG performance status 1 (HR 0.43, 95%CI 0.20-0.91, p = 0.028) were significantly associated with PFS while only ECOG PS 1 was significantly associated (HR 0.04, 95%CI 0.008-0.206, p = 0.000) with OS.ConclusionPalbociclib and ribociclib, when used in routine clinical practice in first or subsequent lines of treatment, resulted in efficacy and toxicity outcomes in concordance with those expected from pivotal trials.

Project description:BackgroundPalbociclib is indicated for the treatment of hormone receptor-positive (HR+), HER2-negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC), in combination with endocrine therapy. Emerging real-life data suggest that the efficacy of a palbociclib-based therapy is highly conserved. We report the Institut Curie hospital experience.Patients and methodsWe retrospectively reviewed all patients with HR + HER2- ABC treated with a palbociclib-based therapy as first or second line for ABC, with an initial prescription from November 2016 to December 2018. Clinical, laboratory and imaging data were retrieved from electronic records. Data lock was December 31st, 2019. Descriptive analyses, univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed.ResultsWe included 310 consecutive patients. Median age was 61.8 years old. Palbociclib was prescribed in first line in 225 patients (72.6%). Before palbociclib-based therapy initiation, 122 patients (39.3%) were endocrine naive, 96 (31.0%) endocrine sensitive and 92 (29.7%) endocrine resistant. Median follow-up was 20.7 months. Median progression free survival (PFS) was 23.4 months (95%CI: 21.6-NR) in endocrine naive patients, 22.7 months (95%CI: 14.7-NR) in endocrine sensitive, and 13.4 months (95%CI: 10.7-20.8) in endocrine resistant. At 12 months from the initiation of palbociclib, 94.5% of patients were alive. By multivariate analysis, poor prognosis factors for PFS were identified in the endocrine naive/sensitive population: initial ECOG status 2, previous endocrine therapy for ABC, 3 metastatic sites or more. Toxicity profile was similar to previously published data.ConclusionIn a non-selected population of patients with HR + HER2- ABC, the efficacy and safety data are strikingly similar to those previously reported.

Project description:Background:This report assesses the efficacy and safety of palbociclib plus endocrine therapy (ET) in women with hormone receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative advanced breast cancer (ABC) with or without visceral metastases. Patients and methods:Pre- and postmenopausal women with disease progression following prior ET (PALOMA-3; N?=?521) and postmenopausal women untreated for ABC (PALOMA-2; N?=?666) were randomized 2 : 1 to ET (fulvestrant or letrozole, respectively) plus palbociclib or placebo. Progression-free survival (PFS), safety, and patient-reported quality of life (QoL) were evaluated by prior treatment and visceral involvement. Results:Visceral metastases incidence was higher in patients with prior resistance to ET (58.3%, PALOMA-3) than in patients naive to ET in the ABC setting (48.6%, PALOMA-2). In patients with prior resistance to ET and visceral metastases, median PFS (mPFS) was 9.2?months with palbociclib plus fulvestrant versus 3.4?months with placebo plus fulvestrant [hazard ratio (HR), 0.47; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.35-0.61], and objective response rate (ORR) was 28.0% versus 6.7%, respectively. In patients with nonvisceral metastases, mPFS was 16.6 versus 7.3?months, HR 0.53; 95% CI 0.36-0.77. In patients with visceral disease and naive to ET in the advanced disease setting, mPFS was 19.3?months with palbociclib plus letrozole versus 12.9?months with placebo plus letrozole (HR 0.63; 95% CI 0.47-0.85); ORR was 55.1% versus 40.0%; in patients with nonvisceral disease, mPFS was not reached with palbociclib plus letrozole versus 16.8?months with placebo plus letrozole (HR 0.50; 95% CI 0.36-0.70). In patients with prior resistance to ET with visceral metastases, palbociclib plus fulvestrant significantly delayed deterioration of QoL versus placebo plus fulvestrant, whereas patient-reported QoL was maintained with palbociclib plus letrozole in patients naive to endocrine-based therapy for ABC. Conclusions:Palbociclib plus ET prolonged mPFS in patients with visceral metastases, increased ORRs, and in patients previously treated for ABC, delayed QoL deterioration, presenting a standard treatment option among patients with visceral metastases amenable to endocrine-based therapy. Clinical trial registration:NCT01942135, NCT01740427.
