Erratum to: A Phase 1 dose-escalation study of the safety and pharmacokinetics of once-daily oral foretinib, a multi-kinase inhibitor, in patients with solid tumors

3586 Background: TP-3654 is an oral, second generation, potent PIM-1 kinase inhibitor with activity against PIM 2, 3 and favorable selectivity against other kinases. These cytoplasmic serine/threonine kinases are highly expressed in many cancers and their oncogenic potential has been largely attributed to supressing apoptosis downstream of stimuli including inflammatory cytokines and other immune effectors. TP-3654 has efficacy in various hematologic and solid tumor models inducing stromal Pim-1 also has been shown to mediate various aspects of the tumor microenvironment. Thus, Pim kinases are attractive targets for the treatment of many human malignanices. Methods: A first in human, multicenter, phase 1, dose escalation study using a standard 3+3 design with a modified Fibonacci scheme to examine the safety and clinical activity of TP-3654 in patients with advanced solid tumors. Results: Ten patients were enrolled between 30Apr and 31Dec2019 receiving 480, 720, and 1080 mg respectively. Grade 3 AEs were scrotum wound infection, altered mental status, anemia, fall, and lower extremity edema, none were related to study drug and all were manageable with supportive care. There were no Grade 4 or 5 AEs and no DLTs. Median duration of SD was 5.5 months (6/10) and with prolonged SD > 16wks (4/10). One CRC patient with 4 lines of prior therapy had a 22% reduction in tumor volume (SD > 5+ mos). TP-3654 plasma PK values (Cmax, AUC) continuously increased through all 3 cohorts. Average Cmax (ng/mL) and AUC0-24 (ng*hours/mL) were 195, 1965 (480mg); 357, 3310 (720mg); 735, 6922 (1080mg), respectively. PK values increased linearly with higher doses without reaching saturation. Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells were isolated from subjects prior and up to 24hours after treatment. Western Blot from protein lysates revealed a decrease in phosphorylation of BAD and p70s6K proteins, both regulated by PIM-1 kinase. Conclusions: These findings suggest that TP-3654 is tolerated as a monotherapy in patients with heavily pretreated, relapsed, and resistant solid tumors warranting further clinical development in selected indications.

3075 Background: OKI-179 is a novel, oral pro-drug analog of largazole, a compound in the romidepsin-depsipeptide class of natural products. OKI-006, the active metabolite of OKI-179, inhibits HDAC 1,2,3 (IC50 = 1.2, 2.4, 2.0 nM, respectively), with no significant inhibition of Class IIa HDACs and has shown promising activity in preclinical models of solid tumors. We conducted a first-in-human dose escalation study of OKI-179 in patients with advanced solid tumors. Methods: Patients with advanced solid tumors, ECOG ≤1, normal QTc, and disease refractory to or with no available standard therapy options were treated with OKI-179 with either intermittent dosing (once daily for 4 days on 3 days off) or continuous dosing (once daily). Dose escalation was conducted using a standard 3+3 design. Pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) testing was performed at various time points after dosing. Results: As of Feb 4, 2021, 26 patients (19 female, 7 male) were enrolled with mean age of 63 (range 41-83). Patients received a median of 5 (range 1-11) prior lines of therapy and most common tumor types included pancreatic (N = 5), breast (N = 4), lung (N = 4), and ovarian cancer (N = 4). Twenty patients were treated in intermittent dosing cohorts from 30-450 mg. One DLT (Grade 2 [G2] thrombocytopenia) occurred in the 450 mg cohort which was expanded to 6 patients without subsequent DLTs. Six patients were treated in 2 continuous dosing cohorts of 200 mg and 300 mg. Two of 3 patients in the 300 mg cohort had DLTs of G3-4 thrombocytopenia and no DLTs were observed in 3 patients treated at 200 mg PO daily. The most common adverse events (AEs) were nausea (62%), fatigue (42%), anemia (39%), anorexia (27%), and vomiting (23%). These AE’s were G1-2 except for G3 anemia (12%), G3 fatigue (12%), and G3 anorexia (4%). No other G4-5 treatment-related AEs occurred. Median time on study was 79 days and best response was stable disease (SD) in 10 of 24 patients evaluable for efficacy (42%). Prolonged SD was observed in patients with platinum-resistant serous ovarian cancer (446 days) and adenoid cystic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (256 days). OKI-006 achieved consistent exposure with Cmax > 2,000 ng/ml and AUC > 8,000 hr*ng/ml, well above the targeted exposure for efficacy based on pre-clinical studies in murine models. Tmax was 2 hours and T1/2 was 6-8 hours. OKI-179 treatment resulted in > 3X increased T cell histone H3K9 and H3K27 acetylation within circulating PBMCs at doses of 180 - 450 mg. Conclusions: OKI-179 has a manageable safety profile, with thrombocytopenia being the on-target DLT. It has a favorable PK profile and demonstrated on-target PD effects at tolerable doses. The MTD and RP2D for OKI-179 was 450 mg daily for intermittent dosing and 200 mg daily for continuous dosing. Phase 2 studies are being designed, with a focus on combination with endocrine therapy in ER+ breast cancer and in NRAS-mutant melanoma. Clinical trial information: NCT03931681.

3019 Background: Protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5) methylates multiple substrates known to be dysregulated in cancer, including components of the spliceosome machinery. PF-06939999 is a selective small-molecule inhibitor of PRMT5. Here we report the safety, PK, PD, and preliminary activity of PF-06939999 in patients (pts) with selected advanced/metastatic solid tumors. Methods: This phase 1 dose escalation trial (NCT03854227) enrolled pts with solid tumor types marked by potential frequent splicing factor mutations, including advanced/metastatic endometrial cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), urothelial cancer, cervical cancer, or esophageal cancer. PF-06939999 monotherapy was continuously administered orally QD or BID in 28-day cycles. A Bayesian Logistic Regression Model was used to inform dose level decisions. Primary objectives were to assess dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), AEs and laboratory abnormalities. Tumor response was assessed using RECIST v1.1. PK and PD were assessed by determining PF-06939999 plasma concentration after dosing and changes in plasma levels of symmetric di-methyl arginine (SDMA), the product of PRMT5 enzymatic activity. Results: 28 pts received PF-06939999 at doses from 0.5-12 mg daily (QD or BID) during dose escalation. Median number of cycles was 2 (range, 1-13). Most were female (54%) with a median age of 61.5 (range, 32-84) y. Median number of prior therapies was 4. Overall, 4/24 (17%) pts reported DLTs: thrombocytopenia (n=2, 6 mg BID); anemia (n=1, 8 mg QD); and neutropenia (n=1, 6 mg QD). Treatment-related AEs occurred in 24 (86%) pts. Most common (≥20%) treatment-related AEs across all cycles were anemia (43%), thrombocytopenia (32%), dysgeusia, fatigue and nausea (29% each). Grade ≥3 treatment-related AEs included anemia (25%), thrombocytopenia (21%), fatigue, neutropenia and lymphocyte count decreased (4% each). One pt (6mg BID) had Grade 4 treatment-related thrombocytopenia. All cytopenias were dose-dependent and reversible with dose modification. No pts discontinued treatment for treatment-related toxicity. There were no treatment-related deaths. Exposure to PF-06939999 increased with doses in the dose range tested. Plasma SDMA was reduced at steady state (58.4-87.5%), indicating robust PD target inhibition. Two pts had confirmed partial response (HNSCC and NSCLC). 6 mg QD was identified as the recommended monotherapy dose for expansion. Conclusions: PF-06939999 showed dose-dependent and manageable toxicities in this phase 1 dose escalation study. Objective tumor responses were observed in pts with HNSCC and NSCLC. Analysis of archival tissue for the presence of splicing factor mutations and other potential predictive biomarkers is ongoing. Enrollment to part 2 dose expansion is ongoing in pts with NSCLC, HNSCC and urothelial cancer. Clinical trial information: NCT03854227.
