Pharmacokinetics of Dacarbazine and Unesbulin and CYP1A2-Mediated Drug Interactions in Patients With Leiomyosarcoma.

ABSTRACT: Unesbulin is being investigated in combination with dacarbazine (DTIC) as a potential therapeutic agent in patients with advanced leiomyosarcoma (LMS). This paper reports the pharmacokinetics (PK) of unesbulin, DTIC, and its unreactive surrogate metabolite 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide (AIC) in 29 patients with advanced LMS. Drug interactions between DTIC (and AIC) and unesbulin were evaluated. DTIC (1000 mg/m² ) was administered to patients with LMS via 1-hour intravenous (IV) infusion on Day 1 of every 21-day (q21d) cycle. Unesbulin dispersible tablets were administered orally twice weekly (BIW), starting on Day 2 of every cycle, except for Cycle 2 (C2), where unesbulin was dosed either on Day 1 together with DTIC or on Day 2, 1 day after DTIC administration. The PK of DTIC,
