142 Background: Napabucasin is an NQO1-bioactivatable investigational agent hypothesized to affect multiple oncogenic cellular pathways including pSTAT3 through the generation of reactive oxygen species. This phase 1 open-label study evaluated the DDI potential of napabucasin and its major metabolite (M1) with respect to 7 major human drug cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes and the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) transporter. Methods: Healthy adult subjects who initially demonstrated they could tolerate administration of 240 or 480 mg twice daily (BID) napabucasin over 2-days (D) received single doses of the CYP and transporter substrates, followed by ≥7-day washout. In the DDI portion, subjects received napabucasin 240 mg BID on D1–11 with the phenotyping cocktail administered on D6 (omeprazole [CYP2C19] 20 mg, caffeine [CYP1A2] 100 mg, flurbiprofen [CYP2C9] 50 mg, bupropion [CYP2B6] 150 mg, dextromethorphan [CYP2D6] 30 mg, and oral midazolam [CYP3A] 2 mg), intravenous (IV) midazolam 2 mg on D7, repaglinide (CYP2C8) 0.25 mg on D8, and rosuvastatin (BRCP transporter) 10 mg on D9. Results: DDI potential was evaluated in 17 subjects. Exposure to omeprazole, flurbiprofen, and oral midazolam with (test) or without (reference) napabucasin 240 mg BID were similar. Napabucasin increased exposure (area under the curve to infinity) to caffeine (124%), IV midazolam (118%), repaglinide (127%), and rosuvastatin (213%); and decreased exposure to bupropion (79%) and dextromethorphan (71%). None of these changes were expected to be clinically meaningful. The exposure of the major metabolites of the probe drugs with or without napabucasin or M1 were similar. Of the 17 subjects, 12 (70.6%) reported adverse events (AEs); 58.8% reported gastrointestinal disorders. One patient had a grade 3 AE (neutrophil count low); no serious AEs were observed. Conclusions: The data suggest minimal in vivo DDI potential for napabucasin with respect to 7 major human drug CYP enzymes and the BCRP transporter. Napabucasin 240 mg BID was generally tolerable in healthy subjects. Co-administration of napabucasin with CYP and transporter substrates was safe and tolerable. Clinical trial information: NCT03411122.

98 Background: The investigational agent orteronel (TAK-700) is a selective 17,20 lyase inhibitor that down regulates androgenic steroid production in vitro and in vivo. Since phase 1 data in patients (pts) with mCRPC were promising, this open-label, multicenter study was expanded to gather additional data on safety and antitumor activity. Methods: The phase 2 portion of this study included four additional dose cohorts. Pts had no prior chemotherapy, and had baseline testosterone <50 ng/dL and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) ≥5 ng/mL. Results: 97 pts received orteronel 300 mg BID (n=23), 400 mg BID + prednisone 5 mg BID (n=24), 600 mg BID + prednisone (n=26), or 600 mg QD (n=24). At data cut-off (23 May 2011), 62% of pts had withdrawn (including 19% due to AEs and 19% for disease progression [PD]). Most common AEs were fatigue (76%), nausea (47%), and constipation (38%); most common grade ≥3 AEs were fatigue (12%) and hypokalaemia (8%). PSA response rates (≥50% decrease) at 12 wks were 63%, 50%, 41%, and 60% in the 300 mg BID, 400 and 600 mg BID + prednisone, and 600 mg QD groups. Of 51 RECIST-evaluable pts, 10 had partial responses (of which 5 confirmed), 22 stable disease, and 15 PD. At 12 wks, median testosterone decreased from baseline in all groups: (ng/dL, 12 wks/baseline) 0.98/8.50 (300 mg BID), 0.30/9.90 (400 mg BID +prednisone), 0.07/7.33 (600 mg BID + prednisone), 0.49/6.31 (600 mg QD). Similarly, at 12 wks, median dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S) decreased from baseline in all groups: (µg/dL, 12 wks/baseline) 8.65/53.0 (300 mg BID), 0.10/36.3 (400 mg BID + prednisone), 0.10/51.7 (600 mg BID + prednisone), 5.30/31.5 (600 mg QD). Overall, mean circulating tumor cell numbers decreased from 16.6 (per 7.5mL blood) at baseline to 3.9 at 12 wks. Conclusions: Orteronel ≥300 mg BID appears active and well tolerated in pts with mCRPC, with similar efficacy ± prednisone. PSA response rates suggest that testosterone, rather than DHEA, may be a more reliable marker of lyase inhibition efficacy. Preclinical data and changes in pharmacodynamic parameters in this study suggest partially selective 17,20 lyase inhibition. Final data will be reported.

Abstract BACKGROUND High-grade gliomas (HGG) are characterized by dysregulated metabolism, utilizing glycolysis for energy production to support unrestricted growth. BPM 31510, an ubidecarenone (coenzyme Q10) containing lipid nanodispersion, causes a switch in cancer energy sourcing from glycolysis towards mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in vitro, reversing the Warburg effect and suggesting potential as an anti-tumor agent. The current study is a phase I study of BPM31510 + vitamin K in GB with tumor growth after bevacizumab (BEV). METHODS This is an open-label phase I study of BPM31510 continuous infusion with weekly vitamin K (10mg IM) in HGG patients using an mTPI design, starting at 110mg/kg, allowing for a single dose de-escalation and 2 dose-escalations. Patients had received first-line ChemoRadiation and were in recurrence following a BEV containing regimen. RESULTS 9 eligible and evaluable patients completed the 28 day DLT period. 8 patients had primary GB, 1 had anaplastic astrocytoma with confirmed pathologic transformation to GB. Median age was 55 years (27–67) and median KPS 70 (60–90) at enrollment. 4 patients were treated at the highest dose 171mg/kg, where there was a single DLT: Grade 3 AST & ALT. The most common grade 1–2 AEs possibly, probably or definitely related to drug were elevated AST, rash, and fatigue, each occurring in 3 patients. Median OS for 9 eligible/evaluable patients was 128 days (95% CI: 48–209) while PFS was 34 days (CI of mean 8.9). 3 patients are currently alive; 2 patients have survived >1 year. PK/PD data are being processed and will be presented. CONCLUSION This study confirms that BPM 31510 + vitamin K is safe and feasible in treatment-refractory HGG patients. Though this study demonstrates safety at 171mg/kg, the proposed dose for future studies in GB, based on additional pre-clinical and non-GB clinical data is 88mg/kg.

Abstract The cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme family is the most important enzyme system catalyzing the phase 1 metabolism of pharmaceuticals and other xenobiotics such as herbal remedies and toxic compounds in the environment. The inhibition and induction of CYPs are major mechanisms causing pharmacokinetic drug–drug interactions. This review presents a comprehensive update on the inhibitors and inducers of the specific CYP enzymes in humans. The focus is on the more recent human in vitro and in vivo findings since the publication of our previous review on this topic in 2008. In addition to the general presentation of inhibitory drugs and inducers of human CYP enzymes by drugs, herbal remedies, and toxic compounds, an in-depth view on tyrosine-kinase inhibitors and antiretroviral HIV medications as victims and perpetrators of drug–drug interactions is provided as examples of the current trends in the field. Also, a concise overview of the mechanisms of CYP induction is presented to aid the understanding of the induction phenomena.

Thirty four patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma not previously treated with an anthracycline were treated with DaunoXome 100mg/m2 every 3 weeks. Thirty-three patients were evaluable for toxicity. Grade 3-4 neutropenia was seen in 20 patients (60.6%), complicated by febrile neutropenia in 2 (6.1%). Other grade 3 toxicities were rare. Among 32 patients assessable for response, one patient had a partial response, giving a response rate of 3.13% (95% confidence interval, 0.08–16.22%). Seven patients (21.9%) had stable disease, and 24 patients (75.0%) had disease progression. The median time to progression for all patients was 42 days (95% CI, 39–49) and the progression-free rate at 3 months was 12.5%. In conclusion, DaunoXome at this dose and schedule is well tolerated in patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma, but is not associated with significant activity. Further studies at this dose and schedule cannot be recommended in this disease.
