Phase I study of intravenous PSC-833 and doxorubicin: reversal of multidrug resistance.
    Japanese journal of cancer research : Gann, 2001, Volume: 92, Issue:2

    PSC-833 reverses multidrug resistance by P-glycoprotein at concentrations < or = 1000 ng / ml. A phase I study of PSC-833 and doxorubicin was conducted to determine the maximum tolerated dose and to investigate pharmacokinetics. PSC-833 was intravenously infused as a 2-h loading dose (LD) and a subsequent 24-h continuous dose (CD). Doxorubicin was infused over 5 min, 1 h after the LD. The starting dose was 1 mg / kg for both LD and CD with 30 mg / m(2) doxorubicin; these dosages were increased to 2 and 10 mg / kg and 50 mg / m(2), respectively. Thirty-one patients were treated. Nausea / vomiting was controllable with granisetron and dexamethasone. Neutropenia and ataxia were dose limiting. Steady-state concentrations of PSC-833 > 1000 ng / ml were achieved at a 2 mg / kg LD and a 10 mg / kg CD. Ex-vivo bioassay revealed that activity in serum for reversing multidrug resistance was achieved in all patients; IC(50) of P-glycoprotein expressing 8226 / Dox(6) in patients' serum was decreased from 5.9 to 1.3 microg / ml (P < 0.0001) by PSC-833 administration. Doxorubicin clearance was 24.3 +/- 13.7 (mean +/- SD) liter / h/m(2), which was lower than the 49.0 +/- 16.9 liter / h/m(2) without PSC-833 (P < 0.0001). The relationship between doxorubicin exposure and neutropenia did not differ between patients treated and not treated with PSC-833. The recommended phase II dose of PSC-833 was 2 and 10 mg / kg for LD and CD, respectively, which achieved a sufficient concentration in serum to reverse drug resistance, as confirmed by bioassay. The dose of doxorubicin should be reduced to 40 mg / m(2), not because of the pharmacodynamic interaction between PSC-833 and doxorubicin affecting hematopoiesis, but because of pharmacokinetic interaction.

Phase I dose-finding and pharmacokinetic study of paclitaxel and carboplatin with oral valspodar in patients with advanced solid tumors.
    Journal of clinical oncology : official journal of the American Society of Clinical Oncology, 2000, Nov-01, Volume: 18, Issue:21

    To evaluate the maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of paclitaxel and carboplatin when administered every 3 weeks with the oral semisynthetic cyclosporine analog valspodar (PSC 833), an inhibitor of P-glycoprotein function.. Fifty-eight patients were treated with escalating doses of paclitaxel ranging from 54 to 94.5 mg/m(2) and carboplatin area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) ranging from 6 to 9 mg.min/mL, every 21 days. The dose of valspodar was fixed at 5 mg/kg every 6 hours for a total of 12 doses from day 0 to day 3. The MTD was determined for the following two groups: (1) previously treated patients, where paclitaxel and carboplatin doses were escalated; and (2) chemotherapy-naïve patients, where paclitaxel dose was escalated and carboplatin AUC was fixed at 6 mg.min/mL. PK studies of paclitaxel and carboplatin were performed on day 1 of course 1.. Fifty-eight patients were treated with 186 courses of paclitaxel, carboplatin, and valspodar. Neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and hepatic transaminase elevations were DLTs. In previously treated patients, no DLTs occurred at the first dose level (paclitaxel 54 mg/m(2) and carboplatin AUC 6 mg.min/mL). However, one of 12, two of six, two of four, four of 11, and two of five patients experienced DLTs at doses of paclitaxel (mg/m(2))/carboplatin AUC (mg.min/mL) of 67.5/6, 81/6, 94.5/6, 67. 5/7.5, and 67.5/9, respectively. In chemotherapy-naïve patients, one of 17 developed DLT at paclitaxel 81 mg/m(2) and carboplatin AUC 6 mg/mL.min. There was prolongation of the terminal phase of paclitaxel elimination as evidenced by an increased time that plasma paclitaxel concentration was >/= 0.05 micromol/L, ranging from 16.6 +/- 6.7 hours to 41.5 +/- 9.8 hours for paclitaxel doses of 54.5 mg/m(2) to 94.5 mg/m(2), respectively.. The recommended phase II dose in chemotherapy-naïve patients is paclitaxel 81 mg/m(2), carboplatin AUC 6 mg.min/mL, and valspodar 5 mg/kg every 6 hours. In previously treated patients, the recommended phase II dose is paclitaxel 67.5 mg/m(2), carboplatin AUC 6 mg.min/mL, and valspodar 5 mg/kg every 6 hours. The acceptable toxicity profile supports the rationale for performing disease-directed evaluations of paclitaxel, carboplatin and valspodar on the schedule evaluated in this study.
