Administration of CI-1033, an irreversible pan-erbB tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is feasible on a 7-day on, 7-day off schedule: a phase I pharmacokinetic and food effect study.Calvo E, Tolcher AW, Hammond LA, Patnaik A, de Bono JS, Eiseman IA, Olson SC, Lenehan PF, McCreery H, Lorusso P, Rowinsky EK Institute for Drug Development, Cancer Therapy and Research Center, University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, San Antonio, Texas, USA. PURPOSE: To determine the maximum tolerated dose of administrating CI-1033, an oral 4-anilinoquinazoline that irreversibly inhibits the tyrosine kinase domain of all erbB subfamilies, on an intermittent schedule, and assess the interaction of CI-1033 with food on the pharmacokinetic behavior. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Escalating doses of CI-1033 from a dose level of 300 mg/day for 7 days every other week were administered to patients with advanced solid malignancies. Plasma concentration-time data sets from all evaluable patients were used to develop a population pharmacokinetic model. Noncompartmental methods were used to independently assess the effect of a high-fat meal on CI-1033 absorption and bioavailability. RESULTS: Twenty-four patients were treated with 69 twenty-eight day courses. The incidence of unacceptable toxicity, principally diarrhea and skin rash, was observed at the 300 mg/day dose level. At the 250 mg/day level, toxicity was manageable, and protracted administration was feasible. A one-compartment linear model with first-order absorption and elimination adequately described the pharmacokinetic disposition. CL/F, apparent volume of distribution (Vd/F), and ka (mean +/- relative SD) were 280 L/hour +/- 33%, 684 L +/- 20%, and 0.35 hour(-1)+/- 69%, respectively. Cmax values were achieved in 2 to 4 hours. Systemic CI-1033 exposure was largely unaffected by administration of a high-fat meal. At 250 mg, concentration values exceeded IC50 values required for prolonged pan-erbB tyrosine kinase inhibition in preclinical assays. CONCLUSIONS: The recommended dose on this schedule is 250 mg/day. Its tolerability and the biological relevance of concentrations achieved at the maximal tolerated dose warrant consideration of disease-directed evaluations. This intermittent treatment schedule can be used without regard to meals. Published 9 November 2004 in Clin Cancer Res, 10(21): 7112-20.
