Abstract
Background: Preclinical data suggest that adavosertib (AZD1775), a highly selective Wee1 inhibitor, enhances the antitumor effect of PARP inhibitors such as olaparib. The dose-escalation part of this Phase Ib study (NCT02511795) investigated the safety and tolerability of adavosertib plus olaparib in patients (pts) with refractory solid tumors to determine a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase II dose (RP2D).
Methods: Pts received adavosertib (QD or BID) for 3 consecutive days with 4 days off treatment (3/4), or 5 consecutive days with 2 days off (5/2), plus olaparib (BID) for 14 or 21 days of a 21-day cycle (Table).
The MTD was the highest dose at which &lt;1/3 of evaluable pts had a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT). DLTs were hematologic grade (gr) ≥4 AEs lasting &gt;7 days, gr 3 thrombocytopenia with gr ≥2 bleeding, non-hematologic gr ≥3 AEs (excluding nausea, vomiting or diarrhea that responds to supportive care), liver function gr ≥3 AEs lasting &gt;48 hours or changes consistent with Hy’s Law, or any other toxicity that disrupted dosing for &gt;7 days.
Results: 119 pts were treated (84 female; median age 59; most common primary tumor sites: ovary [21%], breast [16%], lung [12.6%]) (Table). The most common gr ≥3 AEs were anemia (n=28, 23.5%), neutropenia (n=26, 21.8%), and thrombocytopenia (n=20, 16.8%) (all grouped terms). The most common DLTs were thrombocytopenia (n=4) and neutropenia (n=4); two pts experienced both. There were 4 SAEs with an outcome of death, 1 was treatment related. ORR for the total population, cohort 4.2 and cohort 7.4 was 11.1%, 30.8% and 0%, respectively. DCR was 55.7%, 76.9% and 53.8%, respectively. PK and biomarker data will be presented.
Conclusions: Treatment with adavosertib plus olaparib showed antitumor activity, mostly at the MTD/RP2D for the BID schedule, which was determined to be adavosertib 175 mg (3/4) for 2/3 weeks plus olaparib 200 mg BID. The RP2D for QD schedule was adavosertib 200 mg (3/4) for 2/3 weeks plus olaparib 200 mg BID.
