ABSTRACT

AIMS: Examine relationships between the systemic exposure of acalabrutinib, a highly selective, next-generation Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and its active metabolite (ACP-5862) vs. efficacy and safety responses in patients with B-cell malignancies who received acalabrutinib as monotherapy or in combination with obinutuzumab. METHODS: For exposure-efficacy analyses, patients with untreated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia were assessed for best overall response, progression-free survival and tumour regression. For exposure-safety analyses, incidences of grade ≥2 adverse events (AEs), grade ≥3 AEs and grade ≥2 events of clinical interest were assessed in patients with B-cell malignancies. Acalabrutinib and ACP-5862 pharmacokinetic (PK) parameter estimates were obtained from population PK modelling. Exposure calculations were based on study dosing regimens. Total active moieties were calculated to account for contributions of ACP-5862 to overall efficacy/safety. RESULTS: A total of 573 patients were included (exposure-efficacy analyses, n = 274; exposure-safety analyses, n = 573). Most patients (93%) received acalabrutinib 100 mg twice daily. Median total active area under the concentration-time curve (AUC24h,ss ) and total active maximal concentration at steady-state (Cmax,ss ) were similar for patients who received acalabrutinib as monotherapy or in combination with obinutuzumab, and for responders and nonresponders. No relationship was observed between AUC24h,ss /Cmax,ss and progression-free survival or tumour regression. Acalabrutinib AUC24h,ss and Cmax,ss were generally comparable across groups regardless of AE incidence. CONCLUSION: No clinically meaningful correlations between acalabrutinib PK exposure and efficacy and safety outcomes were observed. These data support the fixed acalabrutinib dose of 100 mg twice daily in the treatment of patients with B-cell malignancies.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: Selumetinib (ARRY-142886) is a potent, selective, MEK1/2 inhibitor approved in the US for the treatment of children (≥ 2 years) with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and symptomatic, inoperable plexiform neurofibromas (PN). We characterized population pharmacokinetics (PK) of selumetinib and its active N-desmethyl metabolite, evaluated exposure-safety/efficacy relationships, and assessed the proposed therapeutic dose of 25 mg/m2 bid based on body surface area (BSA) in this patient population. METHODS: Population PK modeling and covariate analysis (demographics, formulation, liver enzymes, BSA, patients/healthy volunteers) were based on pooled PK data from adult healthy volunteers (n = 391), adult oncology patients (n = 83) and pediatric patients with NF1-PN (n = 68). Longitudinal selumetinib/metabolite exposures were predicted with the final model. Exposure-safety/efficacy analyses were applied to pediatric patients (dose levels: 20, 25, 30 mg/m2 bid). RESULTS: Selumetinib and metabolite concentration-time courses were modeled using a joint compartmental model. Typical selumetinib plasma clearance was 11.6 L/h (95% CI 11.0-12.2 L/ h). Only BSA had a clinically relevant (> 20%) impact on exposure, supporting BSA-based administration in children. Selumetinib and metabolite exposures in responders (≥ 20% PN volume decrease from baseline) and non-responders were largely overlapping, with medians numerically higher in responders. No clear relationships between exposure and safety events were established; exposure was not associated with key adverse events (AEs) including rash acneiform, diarrhea, vomiting, and nausea. CONCLUSION: Findings support continuous selumetinib 25 mg/m2 bid in pediatric patients. Importantly, the updated dosing nomogram ensures that patients will receive a clinically active, yet tolerable, dose regardless of differences in BSA and allows dose reductions, if necessary.
