Preliminary Phase II Study Results of BBR2778 in Combination with Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, and Prednisone in Patients with Relapsed Aggressive …

2004

Abstract Background: Pixantrone (BBR 2778) is a novel aza-anthracenedione with superior activity compared to doxorubicin and mitoxantrone in various tumor models including hematological malignancies. Pixantrone single agent therapy led to major responses in patients (pts) with aggressive lymphoma including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLCL). The safety of a CHOP-like regimen with pixantrone replacing doxorubicin (CPOP) was assessed in a dose-ranging study indicating a recommended dose of 150 mg/m² for pixantrone. Method: In this phase II study the primary objective was to assess the efficacy of the CPOP regimen (cyclophosphamide 750 mg/m² d1, pixantrone 150mg/m² d1, vincristine 1.4mg/m² d…

Results of a Phase II Study of Pixantrone in Combination with Cyclophosphamide, Vincristine, and Prednisone in Patients with Relapsed Aggressive Non-…

2006

Abstract Background: Pixantrone is a novel aza-anthracenedione with less cardiotoxicity and superior activity compared to doxorubicin and mitoxantrone in murine leukemia and lymphoma tumor models. Pixantrone as single agent therapy led to major responses in patients (pts) with multiply relapsed aggressive non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL), including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLCL). In a phase I dose-ranging study of pixantrone (80 to 180 mg/m2) replacing doxorubicin (CPOP) in a CHOP-like regimen, the optimal dose (RD) from that study was found to be 150 mg/m2. Methods: In this international, multi-center, phase II study the primary objective was to assess the efficacy and safety of the CPOP…

Phase IA/II Study of Oral LBH589, a Novel Deacetylase Inhibitor (DACi), Administered on 2 Schedules, in Patients with Advanced Hematologic Malignanci…

2007

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). …

Impact of Cumulative Dose of Carfilzomib in Combination with Lenalidomide and Dexamethasone in Relapsed Refractory Myeloma Patients: A Retrospective …

2018

Abstract Background: Triplet-based lenalidomide plus dexamethasone (Rd) combinations have become the new standard of care for early relapse and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). Carfilzomib is a novel selective proteasome inhibitor (PI) with high efficacy in RRMM. The ASPIRE phase 3 trial showed the superiority of carfilzomib-based triplet (KRd compared to Rd), leading to approval of K for RRMM. However, little is known about safety and efficacy of KRd outside a clinical trial context. Experimental design and aims: In 11 Sicilian Centers belonging to the Sicilian Myeloma Network, from November 2016, when KRd regimen was approved in Italy, to June 2018, 103 consecutive RRMM patients (previ…
