Popis: Background Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) has been implicated in the regulation of cell proliferation, apoptosis, and inflammation. SNS01-T is a novel therapeutic with a dual mechanism of eIF5A modulation: inducing cell death via siRNA-mediated inhibition of hypusinated eIF5A while simultaneously causing over-expression of pro-apoptotic eIF5AK50R via a DNA plasmid with a B-cell promoter to induce tumor cell death, using a PEI vector. SNS01-T significantly inhibits tumor growth and increases survival in mouse models of myeloma (MM), mantle cell and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Methods This is an open label, phase 1-2 dose escalation study in pts with refractory B-cell cancers, comprising 4 SNS01-T dose cohorts: 0.0125, 0.05, 0.2 and 0.375 mg/kg twice weekly IV for 6 weeks. Key inclusion criteria are: MM per IMWG criteria or lymphomas or plasma cell leukemia with histologic confirmation; measurable disease, relapsed or refractory after ≥2 prior regimens; not eligible for standard therapy known to extend life expectancy. Primary endpoints are safety and tolerability of SNS01-T. Secondary endpoints include pharmacokinetics, tumor response (M protein, % plasma cells, radiologic response) and time to relapse or progression. Efficacy assessments were performed at baseline and after 12 infusions in all pts (week 6); myeloma pts were also assessed at week 3. Results All cohorts will have completed enrollment in August 2014 and dosing in cohort 4 will be complete by September. A total of 21 pts have been treated, of whom 18 currently have data available. Demographics are provided in Table 1. Abstract 4464.

The most frequently reported System Organ Classes were General Disorders and Administration Site Conditions (72%) and Gastrointestinal Disorders (56%), with somewhat higher reporting frequency in dose cohorts 3 and 4. The most commonly reported AEs were fatigue (50%), nausea (33%), infusion-related reaction (33%), chills (28%), thrombocytopenia (22%) and pyrexia (17%). Thrombocytopenia, nausea, fatigue, infusion reaction appeared to show some degree of dose relationship. Grade ≥3 TEAEs occurred in 50% of pts with no obvious dose relationship. The only grade ≥3 TEAE reported in >1 pt was thrombocytopenia (17%). There have been no treatment-related deaths. There was 1 DLT at dose level 4 (0.375 mg/kg). Pt 51-001 did not receive premedication prior to the third infusion of SNS01-T and consequently experienced a grade 4 infusion reaction, from which all symptoms resolved within 24 hours. Study treatment was discontinued and the protocol was amended to require the following premedication at each SNS01-T infusion: a corticosteroid, antihistamine and acetaminophen are obligatory, plus an opioid as clinically indicated. Preliminary efficacy was explored. To date, 2 pts have shown stable disease of myeloma at week 3 with some decrease in serum and urine disease markers and one pt with DLBCL had a 15% decrease in small lymph node disease with approximately a 5 month duration. These patients were in cohorts 3 and 4. Conclusions SNS01-T administration was feasible in all 4 dose cohorts with prophylaxis for infusion reactions. Early signs of potential efficacy are encouraging. Expansion of efficacy testing to more patients and combination studies are planned. Disclosures Siegel: Senesco: PI Other.
