Activity of Oral Panobinostat (LBH589) in Patients with Myelofibrosis.
Abstract Abstract 2898 Poster Board II-874 Introduction: Panobinostat (LBH589) is a potent pan-deacetylase inhibitor (DACi) targeting epigenetic and non-epigenetic oncogenic pathways. Panobinostat is currently under clinical investigation in a variety of solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. A Phase IA/II trial evaluating oral panobinostat in patients (pts) with advanced hematologic malignancies is currently ongoing, and encouraging clinical activity has been reported previously in pts with lymphoma, myeloma, or leukemia. Here, preliminary activity of oral panobinostat in pts with myelofibrosis (MF) is described. Patients and methods: Pts with advanced hematologic malignancies were tre…
Phase IA/II Study of Oral LBH589, a Novel Deacetylase Inhibitor (DACi), Administered on 2 Schedules, in Patients with Advanced Hematologic Malignancies.
Abstract LBH589 is a novel cinnamic acid hydroxamate DACi which induces apoptosis in multiple hematologic tumor cell lines in vitro at nanomolar levels. LBH589 has been administered orally, once-a-day, on Monday/Wednesday/Friday, every week (Arm 1) or every other week (Arm 2), in cycles of 28 days, to adult pts with advanced hematologic malignancies. A 3-parameter Bayesian logistic regression model guided dose escalation. To date, 61 pts, median age 67 yrs (range 16–87), 40 male, 21 female, have been enrolled: 33 pts in Arm 1 at dose levels (mg/dose) of 20 (9 pts), 30 (12 pts), 40 (10 pts), and 60 (2 pts); 28 pts in Arm 2 at dose levels (mg/dose) of 30 (7 pts), 45 (12 pts), and 60 (9 pts). …
Phase ia/ii, two-arm, open-label, dose-escalation study of oral panobinostat administered via two dosing schedules in patients with advanced hematologic malignancies
Panobinostat is a potent oral pandeacetylase inhibitor that leads to acetylation of intracellular proteins, inhibits cellular proliferation and induces apoptosis in leukemic cell lines. A phase Ia/II study was designed to determine the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) of daily panobinostat, administered on two schedules: three times a week every week or every other week on a 28-day treatment cycle in patients with advanced hematologic malignancies. The criteria for hematologic dose-limiting toxicities differed between patients with indications associated with severe cytopenias at baseline (leukemia and myeloid disorders) and those less commonly associated with baseline cytopenias (lymphoma and …
