Abstract
3501 Background: The PI3K-PTEN-AKT signaling pathway is deregulated in a wide variety of cancers. GDC-0941 is a potent and selective oral inhibitor of the class I PI3K with 3 nM IC50 for the p110-alpha subunit in vitro and 28 nM IC50 in a cell-based pAKT assay and demonstrates broad activity in breast, ovarian, lung, and prostate cancer models. Methods: A Phase I dose escalation study using a 3+3 design was initiated in patients (pts) with solid tumors. GDC-0941 was given on d1, followed by 1 wk washout to study single-dose PK and PD markers. GDC-0941 was then administered qd on a 3 wk on, 1 wk off, schedule. Steady-state PK and PD were evaluated after 1 wk of continuous dosing. A separate concurrent dose-escalation arm with bid dosing was initiated after the third qd cohort. Results: Nineteen pts have been enrolled in 5 successive dose-escalation cohorts in the qd arm with dose levels up to 80 mg daily. Seven pts were enrolled in 2 cohorts in the bid arm at total daily doses of 60 and 80 mg. The most frequently reported drug-related AEs were Grade 1/2 nausea, fatigue, diarrhea, peripheral edema, and dysgeusia; no drug related grade >3 events have been reported. PK data suggest dose-proportional increases in Cmax and AUC. Potential signs of anti-tumor activity have been observed with a soft tissue sarcoma pt on-study for >176 days with stable disease (30 mg qd), an ovarian cancer pt with an on-study 2.8-fold decrease in CA-125 response to normal levels (30 mg bid) and a pt with endometrial cancer with a decrease in tumor FDG-PET uptake (80 mg qd). Conclusions: GDC-0941 is generally well-tolerated with potential signs of anti-tumor activity. Preliminary PK data suggest dose-proportional increases in exposure over the dose levels evaluated. Dose-escalation on both the qd and bid schedules continues with updated data to be presented. [Table: see text]
