A phase Ib trial of LY2584702 tosylate, a p70 S6 inhibitor, in combination with erlotinib or everolimus in patients with solid tumours.
    European journal of cancer (Oxford, England : 1990), 2014, Volume: 50, Issue:5

    LY2584702 tosylate (hereafter referred to as LY2584702) is an oral, selective ATP competitive inhibitor of p70 S6 kinase. Preclinical studies with LY2584702 demonstrated significant synergistic activity with erlotinib and everolimus. The primary objective was to determine a phase II dose and schedule. Secondary objectives included evaluation of safety, toxicity and pharmacokinetics of LY2584702 in combination with erlotinib or everolimus.. Patients with advanced solid tumours were treated with a total daily dose of 50-200mg of LY2584702 in combination with erlotinib 150 mg once daily (Arm A) or everolimus 10mg once daily (Arm B). Dose escalation was based on 3+3 design and used the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 4.0.. Twenty-nine patients were enrolled, 17 in Arm A and 12 in Arm B. Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) in cycle 1 were observed in Arm A in four patients and consisted of Grade 3 vomiting, hypophosphataemia, pulmonary embolism and decreased clotting factor V. No DLTs were observed in Arm B at cycle 1, and the most frequent treatment-emergent adverse events related to study drug were: fatigue, anorexia, diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting. Seven patients received ≥4 cycles (3 in A, 4 in B). Best overall response was stable disease. Exposure accumulation of LY2584702 occurred with BID (twice daily) dosing. Exposure of erlotinib increased when administered in combination with LY2584702.. LY2584702 was not well tolerated when administered with erlotinib, therefore this combination is not feasible. The combination with everolimus was better tolerated but yielded very limited clinical benefit.

Pain syndrome induced by calcineurin inhibitor and resolved by conversion to sirolimus in a child after kidney transplantation: a case report.
    Transplantation proceedings, 2012, Volume: 44, Issue:8

    Pain induced by calcineurin inhibitors is a rare complication of unknown pathogenesis. We have reported herein a 7-year-old child who presented with abdominal pain, vomiting, and weight loss showing no significant findings after an extensive laboratory and imaging workup. After conversion from tacrolimus to sirolimus, there was complete resolution of the gastrointestinal symptoms and pain; the patient displays excellent renal function. Calcineurin inhibitor-induced pain syndrome is diagnosis of exclusion but must be considered because the withdrawal of this immunosuppressive agent is associated with improvement in symptoms and quality of life.
