Abstract:

Background: MLN8237 is an investigational oral AAK inhibitor being evaluated in pts with hematologic (Ph III) and non-hematologic malignancies. We report here Ph II results from a, 5-arm study of single agent MLN8237 in pts with advanced, predominantly refractory, solid tumors (NCT01045421; closed for enrolment). Methods: Pts ≥18 years with relapsed/refractory disease measurable by RECIST, ECOG PS 0–1, and ≤2 prior (≤4 for BrC pts) cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens were enrolled. Pts with stable brain metastases were eligible. Pts were treated at the recommended Ph II dose; 50 mg BID for 7 d in 21-d cycles. For each cohort, a Simon’s 2-stage design was employed for Ph II, with ≥2 responses required in the first 20 response-evaluable pts to proceed to stage 2. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR) by RECIST v1.1; safety and progression-free survival (PFS) were key secondary endpoints. Results: As of Dec 2012, 47 SCLC, 23 NSCLC, 49 BrC, 45 HNSCC and 47 GE pts in Ph II were response-evaluable (median age, 61 yrs [range 30–88]). NSCLC did not proceed to stage 2. ORR was 9%, 6%, and 4% in HNSCC, GE, and NSCLC pts, respectively; median PFS was 2.7, 1.5 and 3.1 months. BrC and SCLC data are shown in the Table. 92% of pts had a drug-related adverse event (DRAE). 57% of pts had Gr ≥3 DRAEs; including neutropenia (38%), anemia (10%), stomatitis (8%), and thrombocytopenia (6%). 22 pts died during the study; none were study-drug related. Conclusions: Single-agent activity of MLN8237 was evaluated across a range of solid tumors with a manageable toxicity profile. Encouraging Ph2 data in BrC and SCLC pts suggest that MLN8237 warrants further evaluation in these tumor types. Clinical trial information: NCT01045421
