Impact of granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor on FOLFIRINOX‐induced neutropenia prevention: A population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic approach
2020
Aims Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) is frequently prescribed to prevent chemotherapy-induced neutropenia, but the administration schedule remains empirical in case of bimonthly chemotherapy such as FOLFIRINOX regimen. This pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) study was performed to determine the effect of different G-CSF regimens on the incidence and duration of neutropenia following FOLFIRINOX administration in order to propose an optimal G-CSF dosing schedule. Methods A population PK/PD model was developed to describe individual neutrophil time course from absolute neutrophil counts (ANC) obtained in 40 advanced cancer patients receiving FOLFIRINOX regimen. The structura…
Abstract 3363: Pharmacodynamic (PD) assessment of drug activity in tumor tissue from patients (pts) enrolled in a Phase I study of MEHD7945A (MEHD), …

Abstract Background Members of the human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER) family of oncogenes are often co-expressed and heterodimerized, suggesting that simultaneous blockade of multiple HER family receptors may be more effective than targeting single receptors. MEHD is a dual-action human IgG1 antibody that can bivalently bind to HER3 and EGFR and block ligand binding to either. FDG-PET imaging is a recognized method of assessing PD modulation with EGFR inhibitors in the clinic. HER3 and EGFR signaling via the MAPK and PI3K pathways can be monitored in tissue by examining phosphorylation of downstream markers. Methods A Phase 1, multicenter, open-label study was conducted to evaluat…
Abstract PS5-12: Preliminary correlative analysis of clinical outcomes with PIK3CA mutation (mut) status from a phase I/Ib study of GDC-0077 in patie…
2021
Abstract Background Mutations in p110α, encoded by PIK3CA, are present in ~40% of HR+/HER2- BCs. GDC-0077, a PI3Kα-selective inhibitor and mutant PI3Kα degrader, elicits antitumor activity in PIK3CAmut preclinical models as a single agent and when combined with endocrine therapy (ET). New evidence suggests BCs harboring multiple PIK3CAmut exhibit increased signaling through the PI3K/AKT pathway and are more sensitive to PI3Kα inhibitors compared with BCs with a single PIK3CAmut. We report a preliminary analysis of PIK3CAmut status with clinical outcomes from an ongoing study of GDC-0077 alone or with ET (letrozole/fulvestrant) ± palbociclib (palbo) in pts with PIK3CAmut HR+/HER2- mBC (NCT03…
Abstract PD5-2: Ph1b study of the PI3K inhibitor taselisib (GDC-0032) in combination with letrozole in patients with hormone receptor-positive advanc…
2015
Abstract Background: Taselisib (GDC-0032) is a next-generation PI3K inhibitor with increased anti-tumor activity against PIK3CA mutant (MT) cancers. Taselisib is an orally bioavailable, potent, and selective inhibitor of Class I PI3K alpha, delta, and gamma isoforms, with 30-fold less inhibition of the PI3K beta isoform relative to the PI3K alpha isoform. Preclinical data show that taselisib has enhanced activity against PI3K alpha isoform (PIK3CA) MT breast cancer cell lines and enhanced antitumor activity when combined with letrozole. Clinical data with single-agent taselisib also showed increased tumor shrinkage in patients with PIK3CA MT breast cancer as compared to patients with PIK3CA…
Abstract CT217: Phase I, first-in-human trial evaluating BI 1387446 (STING agonist) alone and in combination with ezabenlimab (BI 754091; anti-PD-1) …

Abstract Background/Purpose Activation of the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway in intratumoral immune cells leads to increased type I interferon production, promoting recruitment and priming of T-cells against tumor antigens and triggering anti-tumor activity. In patients with cancer, STING agonists have shown clinical activity, with effects increased when combined with an anti-programmed cell death [PD]-1 antibody. BI 1387446 potently and highly selectively activates the STING pathway; ezabenlimab (BI 754091) is a humanized IgG4 anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody. Tumor regression and enhanced activity of anti-PD-1 therapy was observed after BI 1387446 administration in syngeneic …
Correlations Between Ofatumumab Exposure and Treatment Outcomes for patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) Treated with Frontline Ofatumuma…

Abstract Abstract 1793 Introduction: Results: Seven pts (4 male) with a medianLittle is known about the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics of CD20 monoclonal antibody (mAb) with chemotherapy in patients (pts) with CLL. Ofatumumab (O) is a human mAb targeting a membrane-proximal small-loop epitope on CD20 and mediates efficient complement-dependent cytotoxicity and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Safety and efficacy of O at 2 dose levels in combination with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide (FC) were evaluated in previously untreated pts with CLL. Relationship between O PK, baseline characteristics, and clinical outcomes were studied. Pts and Methods: Pts with active CL…
Pharmacodynamic Monitoring of the Efficacy of a Targeted Therapy with Midostaurin By Plasma Inhibitor Activity (PIA) Analysis in FLT3 -ITD Positive A…
2015
Abstract Background: Activating mutations in receptor tyrosine kinases like FLT3 (FLT3mut) lead to an aberrant signal transduction thereby causing an increased proliferation of hematopoietic cells. Internal tandem duplications (FLT3-ITD) or mutations in the tyrosine kinase domain (FLT3-TKD) occur in about 25% of younger adult patients (pts) with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), with FLT3 -ITD being associated with an unfavourable outcome. FLT3mut present an excellent target for small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). The multi-targeted kinase inhibitor midostaurin (PKC412) is currently under investigation as a FLT3-inhibitor in combination with intensive chemotherapy. Monitoring of th…

Background Activation of the STING pathway in intratumoral immune cells leads to increased type I interferon production, promoting recruitment and priming of T-cells against tumor antigens, and providing anti-tumor activity.1 Intratumoral administration of STING agonists has resulted in notable therapeutic activity in animal models.1 STING agonists have also shown clinical activity in patients, which was more pronounced when combined with an anti-PD-1 antibody.2,3 BI 1387446 potently and highly selectively activates the STING pathway; BI 754091 is a humanized IgG4 anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody. Intratumoral administration of BI 1387446 resulted in tumor regression, and enhanced the activity…

Objective: To describe, in patients undergoing colorectal surgery (CRS), the pharmacokinetics of a single, prophylactic preoperative dose of 1,500 mg of metronidazole plus 240 mg gentamicin and measure its efficacy in accordance with the accepted pharmacodynamic and microbiological parameters. Method: Thirty-six patients undergoing CRS agreed to participate in the study. Three blood samples were taken from each. Cmax 15 minutes after finishing the infusion of the mixture, CfinIQ on finishing the surgery, and Cmin between 12 and 24 hours post-administration. The concentrations of metronidazole and gentamicin in each simple were measured and the pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated (dV- …
Development of a nomogram for the estimation of long-term adherence to clozapine therapy using neutrophil fluorescence
2018
Aims: Previously, we have reported an association between clozapine use and elevated FL3 neutrophil fluorescence, a flow-cytometric parameter for cell viability. Here, we developed and evaluated a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic model relating FL3-fluorescence to clozapine exposure and derived a nomogram for estimation of long-term adherence. Methods: Data from 27 patients initiating clozapine were analysed using nonlinear mixed effects modelling. A previously described pharmacokinetic model for clozapine was coupled to a FL3 fluorescence model. For this, an effect compartment with clozapine concentrations as input and a first order decay rate as output was linked with an Emax model to FL3-…
