ly2510924 and Neoplasms

The objectives of this study were to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of LY2510924, a potent peptide antagonist of the CXCR4 receptor, after subcutaneous administration in patients with advanced cancer forms and quantify LY2510924 stimulatory effects on the mobilization of cells bearing the cluster of differentiation 34 (CD34) as an indirect reflection of the chemokine C-X-C motif ligand 12/CXCR4 axis inhibition. LY2510924 PK were best characterized by a two-compartment model with first-order absorption and dose-dependent clearance predicting steady state after three daily doses and little accumulation (accumulation ratio <1.17). The dynamics of CD34+ cell counts were best characterized with a precursor model with reversible transfer from the precursor to the central compartment and LY2510924-driven stimulation of cell mobilization. Model-based simulations show that once-daily doses of 20 mg LY2510924 produce maximum CD34+ cell response and that peak effect typically occurs after three daily doses and slowly wanes over time.

Overexpression of C-X-C motif receptor 4 (CXCR4) is implicated in tumor progression. LY2510924 is a peptide antagonist, which blocks stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF1) from CXCR4 binding.. This phase I study included two parts: a 3+3 dose escalation (part A) and dose confirmation (part B). LY2510924 was administered as a daily subcutaneous injection on a 28-day cycle. The primary objective was to determine the recommended phase II dose. Secondary objectives included safety, pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and pharmacodynamic response, including mobilization of CD34(+) hematopoietic stem cells into the peripheral blood.. Forty-five patients were enrolled, 25 in part A and 20 in part B. Patients were administered increasing doses of LY2510924: 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10, 20, and 30 mg/day for part A and 2.5 or 20 mg/day for part B. Two patients (30-mg/day cohort) experienced dose-limiting toxicities of grade 3 increased neutrophil count. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was 20 mg/day. The most common drug-related treatment-emergent adverse events were fatigue (9%), injection-site reaction (9%), injection site pruritus (7%), and nausea (7%). The best response was stable disease for nine patients (20%). At the end of cycle 1, mean peak LY2510924 plasma concentration and the 24-hour area under the plasma concentration versus time curve increased slightly more than dose proportionally. LY2510924 dose dependently increased CD34(+) cell counts in peripheral blood up to 18-fold.. LY2510924 demonstrated CD34(+) cell mobilization at doses ≥2.5 mg/day with a tolerable safety profile up to an MTD of 20 mg/day.

C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) constitutes a promising target for tumor diagnosis and therapy. Herein, we evaluate a new 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA)-conjugated CXCR4 antagonist derived from LY2510924, FRM001, and its metal complexes as CXCR4-targeting probes. FRM001 was synthesized by modifying the C-terminus of LY2510924 with maleimido-mono-amide-DOTA via a cysteine linker. FRM001 exhibited CXCR4-specific binding with an affinity similar to that of the parental LY2510924. The binding affinity of FRM001 remained unchanged after complexation with Ga, Lu, and Y.
