[TUT-7 phase I clinical study. TUT-7 Study Group].
A phase I study with TUT-7, a new anthracycline antitumor antibiotic, was conducted in 35 malignant tumor patients at 11 institutions nationwide. The study was initiated with a single dose at 100 mg/body which was equivalent to 2n, then the dose as escalated up to 700 mg/body in accordance with the modified Fibonacci's scheme. The dose limiting factor (DLF) was considered to be leukopenia, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was 700 mg/ body. The consecutive days dosing study subsequently conducted started with 25 mg/body/day, and the dose level was escalated up to 150 mg /body/day. TUT-7 was orally administered for seven (7) to fourteen (14) consecutive days in principle. It was considered that DLF was leukopenia and MTD was 100 mg/body/day for consecutive days dosing. The study indicated that serum drug concentrations reached their plateaus on the 5th day after initiation of TUT-7 treatment and the accumulation of this compound was low. With these findings, a regimen with a dose of 100 mg/body/day orally administered for 14 consecutive days was recommended for early phase II studies.

Pharmacokinetics and acute cardiovascular effects of menogaril in patients with metastatic tumors.
The new anthracyclin, menogaril [7-(R)-0-methylnogarol], is reported to produce less cardiotoxicity than doxorubicin after multiple doses. This study was designed to assess acute hemodynamic changes during the first administration of menogaril and to relate these changes to plasma concentrations. Menogaril (200 mg/mg) was infused over 90 minutes to 4 patients with metastatic colon or prostate cancer. Cardiac output (CO) and stroke volume (SV) were measured noninvasively by Doppler ultrasound. Menogaril plasma concentrations were measured by HPLC and a 3-compartment mammillary model was used for pharmacokinetic analysis of the results. Steady-state volume of distribution, elimination clearance, and elimination half-life averaged 1,114 +/- 340 l/m2, 38 +/- 16 l/h/m2 and 40.3 +/- 30.3 hours, respectively. All patients were normotensive (baseline blood pressure = 135 +/- 10/73.5 +/- 8 mmHg) and ejection fractions were in normal range (EF = 68 +/- 7%). Transient increase in mean arterial pressure (MAP) from 93 +/- 3 to 107 +/- 4 mmHg (p < or = 0.001) were seen during and shortly after the end of menogaril infusion in all patients. Heart rate (78 +/- 5 min-1) remained constant. CO fell slightly and total peripheral resistance (TPR) increased by 36.8% in the last 2 patients. The increase in MAP was analyzed by a linear-effect model and averaged 0.028 +/- 0.017 mmHg per ng/ml of menogaril in the hypothetical biophase. The half-life for menogaril equilibration between plasma and this biophase was 41 +/- 22 minutes. We conclude that during acute administration of menogaril, blood pressure increases transiently secondary to an increase in TPR.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) Topics: Aged; Arrhythmias, Cardiac; Blood Pressure; Cardiac Output; Colonic Neoplasms; Female; Half-Life; Hemodynamics; Humans; Male; Menogaril; Middle Aged; Neoplasm Metastasis; Prostatic Neoplasms; Vascular Resistance | 1995 |

[Antitumor activities of orally administered 7-con-0-methylnogarol (TUT-7)].
We estimated antitumor activity of TUT-7 following p.o. administration using animal tumor models and human tumor xenografts. In mouse L 1210 leukemia system, antitumor activity of TUT-7 administered orally was as good as that by i.v. administration. Treatment involving schedules of every 4-days or daily administration was much more effective than single treatment. Therapiotic indices of this compound administered both p.o. or i.v. routes, were better than that of adriamycin administered i.v.. TUT-7 showed antitumor activities against various mouse tumors (L 1210 leukemia, P 388 leukemia, colon 38 adenocarcinoma, B 16 melanoma), LX-1 human tumor xenografts, and Yoshida sarcoma in rat. Base on above results, we concluded that oral administration is one of the useful route of TUT-7 administration.
