Project description:We evaluated pomalidomide with prednisone for myelofibrosis (MF) with significant anemia (hemoglobin < 10 g/dL). Patients (n = 29; 18 RBC-transfusion dependent) received 0.5mg pomalidomide daily in continuous 28-day cycles with prednisone given for the first 3 cycles only. Six (21%) patients responded (median response duration 11.4 months), including four who achieved RBC-transfusion-independence per the Delphi criteria and two who achieved clinical improvement (in platelets and spleen, respectively) per the International Working Group for Myelofibrosis Research and Treatment criteria. Grade 3 toxicity occurred in 1 patient (fatigue). Pomalidomide with prednisone is safe therapy with modest activity in patients with MF and anemia. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00946270.

Project description:We evaluated single agent pomalidomide for myelofibrosis-associated anemia. First, 21 patients received pomalidomide 3.0mg/day on 21-day-on/7-day-off schedule. Due to poor tolerance the study was quickly suspended. Second, 29 patients received pomalidomide 0.5mg/day continuously. Three patients (10%) experienced clinical improvement in hemoglobin per International-Working-Group criteria (median time to response 1.6 months; median response duration 6.7 months). Ten patients were RBC-transfusion-dependent per Delphi criteria; 2 (20%) achieved RBC-transfusion-independence (time to response 0.9 months in both; response duration of 8.3 and 15 months). One grade 3/4 toxicity (neutropenia) occurred. Pomalidomide at low dose is well tolerated but has modest clinical activity in myelofibrosis.

Project description:PurposeThalidomide and lenalidomide can alleviate anemia in myelofibrosis. However, their value is undermined by their respective potential to cause peripheral neuropathy and myelosuppression. We therefore evaluated the safety and therapeutic activity of another immunomodulatory drug, pomalidomide.MethodsIn a phase II randomized, multicenter, double-blind, adaptive design study, four treatment arms were evaluated: pomalidomide (2 mg/d) plus placebo, pomalidomide (2 mg/d) plus prednisone, pomalidomide (0.5 mg/d) plus prednisone, and prednisone plus placebo. Pomalidomide was administered for up to 12 28-day treatment cycles. Prednisone (30 mg/d) was given in a tapering dose schedule during the first three cycles. Response was assessed by International Working Group criteria.ResultsEighty-four patients with myelofibrosis-associated anemia were randomly assigned to the aforementioned treatment arms: 22, 19, 22, and 21, respectively. Response in anemia was documented in 20 patients, including 15 who became transfusion independent. Response rates in the four treatment arms were 23% (95% CI, 5% to 41%), 16% (95% CI, 0% to 33%), 36% (95% CI, 16% to 56%), and 19% (95% CI, 2% to 36%). The corresponding figures for patients receiving > or = 3 cycles of treatment (n = 62) were 38%, 23%, 40%, and 25%. Response to pomalidomide with or without prednisone was durable (range, 3.2 to 16.9+ months) and significantly better in the absence of leukocytosis (37% v 8%; P = .01); JAK2V617F or cytogenetic status did not affect response. Grade > or = 3 toxicities were infrequent and included (in each treatment arm) neutropenia (9%; 16%; 5%; 5%), thrombocytopenia (14%; 16%; 9%; 5%), and thrombosis (9%; 5%; 0%; 0%).ConclusionPomalidomide therapy at 0.5 or 2 mg/d with or without an abbreviated course of prednisone is well tolerated in patients with myelofibrosis and active in the treatment of anemia.

Project description:PurposeTo determine a recommended dose of liposomal eribulin (E7389-LF) in combination with nivolumab in patients with advanced solid tumors, and to evaluate the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and biomarker impact of this regimen.Experimental designJapanese patients with advanced, nonresectable, or recurrent solid tumors and no existing alternative standard/effective therapy (except nivolumab monotherapy) were assigned to either E7389-LF 1.7 mg/m2 plus nivolumab 360 mg every 3 weeks, E7389-LF 2.1 mg/m2 plus nivolumab 360 mg every 3 weeks, E7389-LF 1.1 mg/m2 plus nivolumab 240 mg every 2 weeks, or E7389-LF 1.4 mg/m2 plus nivolumab 240 mg every 2 weeks. Primary objectives were to evaluate the safety/tolerability of each dose cohort and to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D). Secondary/exploratory objectives, including safety [dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) and adverse events (AE)], pharmacokinetics, efficacy [including objective response rate (ORR)], and biomarker results were used in determining the RP2D.ResultsTwenty-five patients were enrolled to treatment [E7389-LF 1.7 mg/mg2 every 3 weeks (n = 6), E7389-LF 2.1 mg/m2 every 3 weeks (n = 6), E7389-LF 1.1 mg/m2 every 2 weeks (n = 7), E7389-LF 1.4 mg/m2 every 2 weeks (n = 6)]. Twenty-four patients were evaluated for DLTs, of whom 3 had DLTs (1 at E7389-LF 1.7 mg/m2 every 3 weeks, 1 at 1.1 mg/m2 every 2 weeks, and 1 at 1.4 mg/m2 every 2 weeks). All patients had ≥1 treatment-related treatment-emergent AE (TEAE); 68.0% had ≥1 grade 3-4 treatment-related TEAE. Changes in vasculature and IFN-related biomarkers were seen in each cohort. The overall ORR was 16%.ConclusionsE7389-LF plus nivolumab was tolerable overall; the recommended dose for future study was 2.1 mg/m2 plus nivolumab 360 mg every 3 weeks.SignificanceThis phase Ib part of a phase Ib/II study assessed the tolerability and activity of a liposomal formulation of eribulin (E7389-LF) plus nivolumab in 25 patients with advanced solid tumors. The combination was tolerable overall; 4 patients had a partial response. Vasculature and immune-related biomarker levels increased, suggesting vascular remodeling.

Project description:This phase Ib, non-randomized, open-label study evaluates the safety and tolerability of ruxolitinib in combination with nilotinib and prednisone in patients with naïve or ruxolitinib-resistant myelofibrosis (MF). A total of 15 patients with primary or secondary MF received the study treatment; 13 patients had received prior ruxolitinib treatment (86.7%). Eight patients completed seven cycles (53.3%) and six patients completed twelve cycles of treatment (40%). All the patients experienced at least one adverse event (AE) during the study (the most common AEs were hyperglycemia, asthenia, and thrombocytopenia), and 14 patients registered at least one treatment-related AE (the most common treatment-related AEs were hyperglycemia (22.2%; three grade 3 cases). Five treatment-related serious AEs (SAEs) were reported in two patients (13.3%). No deaths were registered throughout the study. No dose-limiting toxicity was observed. Four out of fifteen (27%) patients experienced a 100% spleen size reduction at Cycle 7, and two additional patients achieved a >50% spleen size reduction, representing an overall response rate of 40% at Cycle 7. In conclusion, the tolerability of this combination was acceptable, and hyperglycemia was the most frequent treatment-related AE. Ruxolitinib in combination with nilotinib and prednisone showed relevant clinical activity in patients with MF. This trial was registered with EudraCT Number 2016-005214-21.

Project description:We report the final 2-year end-of-study results from the first clinical trial investigating combination treatment with ruxolitinib and low-dose pegylated interferon-α2 (PEG-IFNα2). The study included 32 patients with polycythemia vera and 18 with primary or secondary myelofibrosis; 46 patients were previously intolerant of or refractory to PEGIFNα2. The primary outcome was efficacy, based on hematologic parameters, quality of life measurements, and JAK2 V617F allele burden. We used the 2013 European LeukemiaNet and International Working Group- Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Research and Treatment response criteria, including response in symptoms, splenomegaly, peripheral blood counts, and bone marrow. Of 32 patients with polycythemia vera, ten (31%) achieved a remission which was a complete remission in three (9%) cases. Of 18 patients with myelofibrosis, eight (44%) achieved a remission; five (28%) were complete remissions. The cumulative incidence of peripheral blood count remission was 0.85 and 0.75 for patients with polycythemia vera and myelofibrosis, respectively. The Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Symptom Assessment Form total symptom score decreased from 22 [95% confidence interval (95% CI):, 16-29] at baseline to 15 (95% CI: 10-22) after 2 years. The median JAK2 V617F allele burden decreased from 47% (95% CI: 33-61%) to 12% (95% CI: 6-22%), and 41% of patients achieved a molecular response. The drop-out rate was 6% among patients with polycythemia vera and 32% among those with myelofibrosis. Of 36 patients previously intolerant of PEG-IFNα2, 31 (86%) completed the study, and 24 (67%) of these received PEG-IFNα2 throughout the study. In conclusion, combination treatment improved cell counts, reduced bone marrow cellularity and fibrosis, decreased JAK2 V617F burden, and reduced symptom burden with acceptable toxicity in several patients with polycythemia vera or myelofibrosis. #EudraCT2013-003295-12.

Project description:Ruxolitinib is a Janus kinase (JAK) (JAK1/JAK2) inhibitor that has demonstrated superiority over placebo and best available therapy (BAT) in the Controlled Myelofibrosis Study with Oral JAK Inhibitor Treatment (COMFORT) studies. COMFORT-II was a randomized (2:1), open-label phase 3 study in patients with myelofibrosis; patients randomized to BAT could crossover to ruxolitinib upon protocol-defined disease progression or after the primary end point, confounding long-term comparisons. At week 48, 28% (41/146) of patients randomized to ruxolitinib achieved ⩾35% decrease in spleen volume (primary end point) compared with no patients on BAT (P<0.001). Among the 78 patients (53.4%) in the ruxolitinib arm who achieved ⩾35% reductions in spleen volume at any time, the probability of maintaining response was 0.48 (95% confidence interval (CI), 0.35-0.60) at 5 years (median, 3.2 years). Median overall survival was not reached in the ruxolitinib arm and was 4.1 years in the BAT arm. There was a 33% reduction in risk of death with ruxolitinib compared with BAT by intent-to-treat analysis (hazard ratio (HR)=0.67; 95% CI, 0.44-1.02; P=0.06); the crossover-corrected HR was 0.44 (95% CI, 0.18-1.04; P=0.06). There was no unexpected increased incidence of adverse events with longer exposure. This final analysis showed that spleen volume reductions with ruxolitinib were maintained with continued therapy and may be associated with survival benefits.

Project description:BackgroundThe JAK inhibitor (JAKi) ruxolitinib is standard treatment for myelofibrosis (MF), but some patients are unresponsive. Pre-clinical and clinical data suggest that addition of a Hedgehog pathway inhibitor (HPI) to ruxolitinib might improve response. Vismodegib is an HPI approved for treatment of locally advanced and metastatic basal cell carcinoma. The MYLIE study assessed the safety and efficacy of combining ruxolitinib with vismodegib in ruxolitinib-naive patients with MF and characterized the pharmacokinetics (PK) of vismodegib in this setting.MethodsIn this phase Ib study, ten patients with intermediate- or high-risk primary or secondary MF received open-label vismodegib (150 mg/day orally) and ruxolitinib (15 or 20 mg orally twice daily, depending on baseline platelet count) for up to 48 weeks, or until withdrawal or discontinuation. PK samples were collected throughout the study for comparison with other patient populations. Efficacy outcomes at week 24 included spleen response (≥ 35% reduction in volume by imaging) and improvement in bone marrow fibrosis by central and investigator assessment, symptom response (≥ 50% reduction in Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Symptom Assessment Form Total Symptom score), and anemia response (per International Working Group for Myeloproliferative Neoplasms Research and Treatment revised response criteria).ResultsAs of November 17, 2017, eight patients had completed 48 weeks of treatment with vismodegib and ruxolitinib; two discontinued treatment early. At week 24 (± 1 week), three patients experienced a spleen response by central review and no patients showed a 1-grade improvement in bone marrow fibrosis by central review. Five patients experienced symptom response at week 24, and no patients experienced an anemia response. The most common adverse events were muscle spasm (100% of patients), alopecia (70%), dysgeusia (50%), thrombocytopenia (50%), and nausea (40%); these events were predominantly grade 1/2. Three patients experienced a total of six serious adverse events.ConclusionsThe combination of vismodegib and ruxolitinib was tolerable and no new safety signals were seen, but there was no evidence that the addition of vismodegib to ruxolitinib improved any of the efficacy outcome measures assessed. Further evaluation of this combination will not be pursued.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02593760 . Registered November 2, 2015.
