Phase 1 pharmacokinetic study of the oral pan-AKT inhibitor MK-2206 in Japanese patients with advanced solid tumors.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

MK-2206 is an oral, highly selective inhibitor of AKT. The safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and anti-tumor activity of MK-2206 was evaluated in Japanese patients with advanced solid tumors.

Methods

Patients received a single oral dose of MK-2206 according to an every other day (QOD) dosing schedule or a once weekly (QW) dosing schedule in repeating 28-day treatment cycles, with a 7-day rest after only the first cycle. The dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were evaluated during Cycle 1. Full PK sampling was performed during Cycle 1.

Results

Twenty-four patients were treated at 45 mg (n = 3) or 60 mg (n = 9) QOD or at 135 mg (n = 3) or 200 mg (n = 9) QW. One patient experienced a DLT at 60 mg QOD, and three patients experienced DLTs at 200 mg QW. No DL
