Safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of Aurora kinase B inhibitor AZD2811: a phase 1 dose-finding study in patients with advanced solid tumours.

ABSTRACT:

Background

AZD2811 is a potent, selective Aurora kinase B inhibitor. We report the dose-escalation phase of a first-in-human study assessing nanoparticle-encapsulated AZD2811 in advanced solid tumours.

Methods

AZD2811 was administered in 12 dose-escalation cohorts (2-h intravenous infusion; 15‒600 mg; 21-/28-day cycles) with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) at higher doses. The primary objective was determining safety and maximum tolerated/recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).

Results

Fifty-one patients received AZD2811. Drug exposure was sustained for several days post-dose. The most common AZD2811-related adverse events (AEs) were fatigue (27.3%) at ≤200 mg/cycle and neutropenia (37.9%) at ≥400 mg/cycle. Five patients had dose-limiting toxicities: grade (G)4
