Phase 1 dose-escalation study of IV ixazomib, an investigational proteasome inhibitor, in patients with relapsed/refractory lymphoma.

ABSTRACT: Ixazomib is an investigational proteasome inhibitor that has shown preclinical activity in lymphoma models. This phase 1 study assessed the safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and preliminary activity of intravenous (IV) ixazomib in relapsed/refractory lymphoma patients who had received ⩾ 2 prior therapies. Thirty patients with a range of histologies received ixazomib 0.125-3.11 mg/m(2) on days 1, 8 and 15 of 28-day cycles. Patients received a median of two cycles (range 1-36). MTD was determined to be 2.34 mg/m(2). Most common drug-related adverse events (AEs) included fatigue (43%), diarrhea (33%), nausea, vomiting and thrombocytopenia (each 27%). Drug-related grade ⩾ 3 AEs included neutropenia (20%), thrombocytopenia (13%) and diarrhea
