    Notes: Abstract Brequinar (DUP 785; NSC 368390) is a quinoline carboxylic acid derivative that inhibits pyrimidine synthesis at the level of dihydro-orotate dehydrogenase and revealed synergy with cisplatin in preclinical models. In this study investigating the pharmacokinetic and toxicity of brequinar in combination with cisplatin, patients were initially treated with weekly brequinar, in combination with an every-three-week administration of cisplatin. Due to toxicity, the schedule was modified to a 28-day cycle with brequinar given on days 1, 8, 15, and cisplatin on day 1. A total of 24 patients (16 male, 8 female; median age 57; median performance status 1) received 69 courses of therapy. Six dose levels were explored, with cisplatin/ brequinar doses, respectively, of 50/500, 50/650, 50/860, 60/860, 75/650, and 75/860 mg/m2. The serum concentration versus time curves for brequinar were biphasic. A comparison of the pharmacokinetic results after the first and third doses of brequinar indicate that the presence of 50, 60, and 75 mg/m2cisplatin did not change the protein binding and the pharmacokinetics of brequinar in any of the three brequinar-dose groups. Total cisplatin plasma pharmacokinetic followed a triphasic-shape curve and unbound cisplatin decayed at a very rapid rate. Since pharmacokinetic parameters for total cisplatin in this study were similar to those reported in the literature, the presence of brequinar is unlikely to alter the pharmacokinetics of cisplatin. Main dose-limiting toxicities included myelosuppression (including neutropenia and thrombocytopenia) and mucositis. Cisplatin/brequinar doses of 50/500, 50/650, 50/860, 60/860, 75/650, and 75/860 mg/m2, were associated with dose limiting toxicity in 0/3, 1/3, 1/3, 1/3, 2/4, 2/5, and 4/6 patients, respectively. This study shows that co-administration of brequinar and cisplatin does not affect the pharmacokinetic properties of either drug and that the MTDs of cisplatin/brequinar combinations are 60/860 mg/m2 or 75/650 mg/m2. From this study, we conclude that full dose of 75 mg/m2 cisplatin (day 1) can be administered with 650 mg/m2 brequinar (days 1, 8 and 15) without significant modifications of individual drug pharmacokinetic parameters.

    Notes: Abstract Carboxyamido-triazole (CAI) is an anti-invasive, antimetastatic, antiangiogenic agent in clinical development for cancer treatment. It has been postulated that food might enhance the oral absorption of micronized CAI based on an apparent discrepancy in steady state maximum concentrations when taken without regard to meals vs. fasting. The purpose of this study was to determine if a standardized meal affects the absorption and pharmacokinetics of this agent. Twelve patients with refractory cancers and good end organ function were randomized to receive two doses of CAI (250 mg/m 2 ) with and without a standardized high fat meal. One cohort of 6 patients received these doses at 9 AM, and the remaining 6 patients received CAI at 9 PM. Blood was obtained prior to each dose, and serially thereafter. A series of pharmacokinetic (PK) models were fit to the concentration–time data. PK parameters were ultimately calculated using a model which allows simultaneous estimation of parameters from both test doses using nonlinear least squares analysis with ADAPT II. This model estimates independent absorption rate constants and relative fraction absorbed for each condition. AUC 0–t was determined using the trapezoidal method, extrapolated to infinity, and used to calculate the relative bioavailability. No significant differences in PK parameters were noted between the morning and evening cohorts. However, the relative bioavailability, as measured by AUC 0–∞, of CAI was significantly increased when administered with a high fat meal compared to fasting (138.9 vs. 52.2 μg * hr/ml; p=0.0005). The magnitude of the increase in relative bioavailability of CAI taken with food could have profound implications for patients who may inadvertently take this medication shortly after eating.

    Notes: Abstract In this phase I study, terephthalamidine was administered as a 120-hour continuous infusion repeated every 21 days. Thirteen patients received 27 courses of terephthalamidine at four dose levels (14, 28, 46, and 70 mg/m2/day). Dose-limiting toxicity consisted of profound and intractable anorexia, weight loss and prostration in all patients. Toxicity was delayed and accompanied by hyponatremia and hypokalemia. No hematologic or other toxicity was documented. One patient with adenocarcinoma of the lung had a 40% decrease in mediastinal lymph nodes and resolution of a pleural effusion lasting 2 months. Pharmacokinetic analysis by HPLC was performed in all patients during their first course. The harmonic mean terminal half-life for terephthalamidine was 23 hours with a plasma clearance of 1.7 l/hr/m2. Both plasma concentrations achieved during infusion (r2 = 0.9) and area under the curve (AUC) (r2 = 0.8) were proportional to increase in dose (p 〈 0.002). Renal excretion accounted for 64% of the total cumulative dose, with an average renal clearance of 1.16 l/hr/m2. Due to the unacceptable toxicity seen at all doses with this schedule, no further studies are recommended unless the mechanism of toxicity is better understood and can be prevented.

    Notes: Abstract Purpose. Two studies were conducted to compare the absorption of risedronate administered as a solution to three different gastrointestinal sites (study A) and to determine the extent of absorption of risedronate solution administered by rapid and slow infusion to the second part of the duodenum (study B). Methods. Each study was designed as a single-dose, crossover (three periods, study A; two periods, study B) trial in healthy male subjects, with a 14-day washout period between dosing. Subjects fasted overnight before drug administration and for 4 hours after drug administration. In study A, a risedronate solution of 40 mg in 30 mL of water was administered directly into the stomach, the second part of the duodenum, or the terminal ileum over 1 minute via a nasoenteral tube in a three-period crossover design. In study B, a risedronate solution of 40 mg in 30 mL of water was administered directly into the second part of the duodenum over 1 minute and over 1 hour in a randomized, two-period crossover design. Serum and urine samples were obtained for 48 hours after dosing for risedronate analysis. Results. Eight subjects completed each study. No statistically significant site-specific differences in any pharmacokinetic parameter were observed (study A). Based on the area under the serum concentration-time profile and the amount of drug excreted in the urine unchanged, the extent of risedronate absorption did not differ significantly following a rapid or a slow infusion (study B). Only minor symptomatic complaints were reported by subjects, such as headaches and body aches. Conclusions. These studies indicate that the rate and extent of risedronate absorption are independent of the site of administration along the gastrointestinal tract, and that the extent of absorption is not affected by the rate of administration.

    Notes: Abstract Purpose. Phosphorothioate antisense oligodeoxynucleotides are promising therapeutic candidates. When given systemically in clinical trials they are administered via slow intravenous infusion to avoid their putative plasma concentration-dependent haemodynamic side-effects. In this study, we have evaluated alternative parenteral and non-parenteral administration routes which have the potential to enhance the therapeutic and commercial potential of these agents. Methods. The delivery of CGP 64128A by intravenous, subcutaneous, intra-peritoneal, oral and intra-tracheal (pulmonary) routes was investigated in rats using radiolabelled compound and supported by more specific capillary gel electrophoretic analyses. Results. Intravenously administered CGP 64128A exhibited the rapid blood clearance and distinctive tissue distribution which are typical for phosphorothioate oligodeoxynucleotides. Subcutaneous and intra-peritoneal administration resulted in significant bioavailabilities (30.9% and 28.1% over 360 min, respectively) and reduced peak plasma levels when compared with intravenous dosing. Administration via the gastrointestinal tract gave negligible bioavailability (〈2%). Intra-tracheal administration resulted in significant but dose-dependent bioavailabilities of 3.2, 16.5 and 39.8% at 0.06, 0.6 and 6.0 mg/kg, respectively. Conclusions. Significant bioavailabilities of CGP 64128A were achieved following subcutaneous, intra-peritoneal and intra-tracheal administration. Pulmonary delivery represents a promising mode of non-parenteral dosing for antisense oligonucleotides. The dose-dependent increase in pulmonary bioavailability suggests that low doses may be retained in the lungs for local effects whereas higher doses may be suitable for the treatment of a broader spectrum of systemic diseases.

    Notes: Abstract Purpose. To study the pharmacokinetics and ex vivo leukocyte responses of recombinant human IL-10 (rHuIL-10) following single SC and IV dosing. Methods. A randomized two-way cross-over study was undertaken in 17 healthy volunteers in which rHuIL-10 was administered as 25 μg/ kg SC and IV doses. Blood samples were collected for 48 hr after dosing to determine serum IL-10 concentrations. Inhibitory activity of IL-10 on ex vivo production of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-1β) by LPS-treated peripheral blood cells were measured over 96 hr. Results. A physiologically-relevant modeling approach was developed to determine the pharmacokinetics for two routes of administration (SC and IV). The IV dose showed polyexponential disposition with CL of 65 mL/kg/hr, Vss of 70 mL/kg, and t1/2 of 1.94 hr. Absolute bioavailability averaged 42% for SC dosing which produced lower but sustained concentrations. Substantial and prolonged suppression of TNF-α and IL-1β production was achieved during IL-10 treatment. The Hill Function was used to account for the joint concentration-dependent immunosuppressive action of rHuIL-10 after both IV and SC doses. The IC50 values were about 0.03 ng/mL and Imax values were about 0.85 for both TNF-α and IL-lβ suppression. The degree of change as well as the duration of leukocyte response was greater after SC administration than after IV administration. Conclusions. rHuIL-10 shows favorable PK/PD characteristics especially by theSC route of administration which produced prolonged suppression of cytokine production (ex vivo) which may be applicable in various immune-related disorders.
