Project description:Introduction: Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) represents a key downstream intermediate for a myriad of oncogenic receptor tyrosine kinases. In the case of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) pathway, the mTOR complex (mTORC1) mediates IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R)-induced estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) phosphorylation/activation and leads to increased proliferation and growth in breast cancer cells. As a result, the prevalence of mTOR inhibitors combined with hormonal therapy has increased in recent years. Conversely, activated mTORC1 provides negative feedback regulation of IGF signaling via insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-1/2 serine phosphorylation and subsequent proteasomal degradation. Thus, the IGF pathway may provide escape (e.g. de novo or acquired resistance) from mTORC1 inhibitors. It is therefore plausible that combined inhibition of mTORC1 and IGF-1R for select subsets of ER-positive breast cancer patients presents as a viable therapeutic option. Methods: Using hormone-sensitive breast cancer cells stably transfected with the aromatase gene (MCF-7/AC-1), works presented herein describe the in vitro and in vivo antitumor efficacy of the following compounds: dalotuzumab (DALO; “MK-0646”; anti-IGF-1R antibody), ridaforolimus (RIDA; “MK-8669”; mTORC1 small molecule inhibitor) and letrozole (“LET”, aromatase inhibitor). Results: With the exception of MK-0646, all single agent and combination treatment arms effectively inhibited xenograft tumor growth, albeit to varying degrees. Correlative tissue analyses revealed MK-0646 alone and in combination with LET induced insulin receptor alpha A (InsR-A) isoform upregulation (both mRNA and protein expression), thereby further supporting a triple therapy approach. Conclusion: These data provide preclinical rationalization towards the combined triple therapy of LET plus MK-0646 plus MK-8669 as an efficacious anti-tumor strategy for ER-positive breast tumors.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Binding of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-1) to its receptor (IGF-1R) initiates downstream signals that activate PI3K/Akt/mTOR and MEK/Erk pathways, which stimulate cancer cell proliferation and induce drug resistance. Cross talk between IGF-1R and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mediates resistance to anti-EGFR agents. We studied safety, tolerability, and outcomes of MK-0646, IGF-1 monoclonal antibody, in combination with gemcitabine (G) ± erlotinib (E) in metastatic pancreatic cancer. METHODS:Our study included a phase I dose escalation and phase II randomization and expansion cohorts. A 3?+?3 dose escalation protocol was used to determine MK-0646 maximum tolerable dose (MTD) in combination with G ± E standard doses. For phase II, patients were randomized to arm A (G + MK), arm B (G + MK + E), or arm C (G + E). Primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS), disease control rate, toxicity, and correlation between OS and IGF-1 in patients treated with MK-0646. RESULTS:MK-0646 MTD was 10 mg/kg in combination with G and 5 mg/kg in combination with G + E. In randomization cohort, 15 patients were treated in each arm. Disease control rates were 50, 60, and 40% respectively. PFS was not different between the three arms. OS was significantly different between arm A (10.4 months) and C (5.7 months) (P?=?0.02). However, addition of erlotinib in arm B yielded no OS benefit compared to arm A (P?=?0.6). Plasma and tissue IGF-1 levels did not correlate with OS (P?=?0.64, 0.87). Grade 3-4 toxicity during phase II cohorts were neutropenia (10/arm A, 14/arm B, 5/arm C), leukopenia (5/A, 5/B, 7/C), thrombocytopenia (8/A, 9/B, 2/C), hyponatremia (1/A, 3/B), and hyperglycemia (8/A, 1/B). CONCLUSIONS:MK-0646 was tolerable in combination with G and associated with improvement in OS but not PFS as compared with G + E. Tissue and serum IGF-1 did not correlate with clinical outcome. TRIAL REGISTRATION:This trial is registered in ClinicalTrial.gov under the Identifier NCT00769483 and registration date was October 9, 2008.

Project description:The safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (PK) interactions of MK-0646 in combination with cetuximab and irinotecan were investigated in Japanese patients with advanced colorectal cancer.Twenty patients were treated in the following study arms in combination with cetuximab and irinotecan: A [MK-0646 (10 mg/kg) weekly starting on Day 22], B [MK-0646 (15 mg/kg) on Day 8, followed by 7.5 mg/kg every 2 weeks], or C [MK-0646 (10 mg/kg) on Day 1 and weekly starting on Day 22]. Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) were evaluated during a prespecified 4-week period in arms A and B. Full PK sampling was performed to evaluate the PK interactions.One of the 6 evaluable patients in arm A developed a DLT (grade 3 hyperglycemia); no DLTs occurred in the 6 patients in arm B. Common treatment-related adverse events included leukopenia, neutropenia, dermatitis acneiform, paronychia, nausea, stomatitis, diarrhea, and decreased appetite. The co-administration of cetuximab and irinotecan with MK-0646 increased the MK-0646 AUC0-168h by 25 %, with MK-0646 accumulation from the previous dose contributing to the observed increase. The co-administration of MK-0646 with cetuximab and irinotecan did not affect the PK of cetuximab and irinotecan, but reduced the C max (from 16.8 to 13.0 ng/mL) and the AUC0-24h (by 13 %) of SN-38, the active metabolite of irinotecan.The triple combination of MK-0646, cetuximab, and irinotecan was well tolerated in Japanese patients with advanced colorectal cancer. These results indicate a minimal potential for PK interactions between MK-0646 and cetuximab and between MK-0646 and irinotecan/SN-38.

Project description:The purpose is to study the efficacy (effectiveness) of a new drug, MK-0646, in metastatic colorectal cancer. MK-0646 is an investigational or experimental anti-cancer agent that has not yet been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in metastatic colorectal cancer or any other disease.
This study will assess whether adding MK-0646 to an FDA-approved standard of care chemotherapy improves participants’ duration of progression-free survival. MK-0646 is believed to inhibit the receptor of a protein called IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor) which is thought to contribute to cancer development and growth. However, there is no guarantee that MK-0646 will slow cancer development and growth.
Other purposes of this study include:
* looking at the safety and tolerability of MK-0646
* comparing MK-0646 + standard of care chemotherapy with placebo + standard of care chemotherapy (placebo is a substance that looks like an active drug but has no active ingredient) The standard of care chemotherapy in this study is called FOLFOX 7. FOLFOX 7 includes the drugs oxaliplatin with leucovorin, 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), and bevacizumab.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) regulates cell growth, proliferation, and apoptosis. Adenocarcinoma and never-smokers have a higher expression of IGF-1R, which is associated with worse overall survival. Dalotuzumab-MK0646 (D) is a humanized monoclonal antibody that targets IGF-1R. Pemetrexed (P) has higher activity in non-squamous lung cancer (NSQL). We initiated a randomized phase II trial to test the combination of P and Cisplatin (C)?±?D in NSQL. METHODS:Eligibility criteria were untreated NSQL stage IV, ECOG 0 or 1, measurable disease, adequate renal, hepatic and hematologic function, and no other intercurrent illness. P at 500?mg/m(2) and C at 75?mg/m(2) IV were given every 3?weeks. D was given at 10?mg/kg IV weekly on days 1, 8, and 15 of every 3-week cycle in the experimental group. The patients had a radiographic assessment after every two cycles and were treated for a maximum of six cycles if there was a response or stable disease. The primary objective of the study was to compare the clinical response rates of PC vs. PC?+?D. RESULTS:From 1/2009 to 2/2011, the study accrued 26 subjects: 16 male and 10 female, with a median age of 59; 14 were treated with PC and 12 were treated with PC?+?D. We observed two partial responses (PR), seven stable disease (SD), three progressive disease (PD), and two not evaluable (NE) in the PC arm. In comparison, for the PC?+?D arm, there were three PR, four SD, four PD, and one NE. The hematologic toxicity was similar in both groups. There was higher incidence of hyperglycemia in the experimental group; four cases with grade 3 and one case with grade 4. CONCLUSION:PC?+?D had a similar response rate compared to PC, with a higher rate of hyperglycemia. Identification of responders using predictive markers would be key to continuing the study of D in NSQL. TRIAL REGISTRATION:NCT00799240, clinicaltrials.gov.

Project description:This is an open-label, two-part study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of combination treatment with dalotuzumab + MK-2206, dalotuzumab + MK-0752, or dalotuzumab + ridaforolimus (MK-8669). Part 1 of the study will determine the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) observed after administration of each of the combinations at various doses and define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of each combination. Part 2 of the study will assess preliminary anti-tumor activity of these combinations (at MTD) in two groups of participants with selected tumor biomarkers: one group with metastatic or recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer and one group with metastatic or recurrent colorectal cancer. The dalotuzumab + ridaforolimus and dalotuzumab + MK-2206 arms will be enriched with female platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer participants. The dalotuzumab + MK-0752 arm will be enriched with metastatic or recurrent wild-type kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS) colorectal cancer participants.
The primary hypothesis is that the DLTs observed in adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors after administration of each of the MK-MK doublets will be dose-dependent to allow for definition of a MTD within each MK-MK doublet.
