X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) results were investigated by using a PANalytical X’Pert Pro diffractometer in reflection mode operating at a voltage of 40 kV and a current intensity of 40 mA with Cu-Kα radiation (λ = 1.5406 Å). LDHs and LDOs powder were placed into stainless steel sample holders. A 1° slit was used. Bragg reflections due to sample holder were observed at 2θ = 43-44° and 50° and from silicon wafer were located at 2θ = 33°, 62° and 69°. The Scherrer’s equation was used to estimate the mean crystallite domain length (CDL) of the LDHs; CDL = Kλ(βcosθ)-1, where CDL = the mean crystallite domain length, K = Scherrer constant, λ = the wavelength of the radiation, and β = the full-width at half-maximum height (FWHM) values of a reflection located at 2θ. Thus, the CDL along c- axis (CDL003) can be calculated from the full-width at half-maximum height values of the (003) Bragg reflection, which is assumed to be the total crystal thickness along the c-axis.

    CENTER FOR DRUG EVALUATION AND RESEARCH APPLICATION NUMBER: 207981Orig1s000 PHARMACOLOGY REVIEW(S) MEMORANDUM Lonsurf (trifluridine and tipiracil) Date: September 18, 2015 To: File for NDA 207981 From: John K. Leighton, PhD, DABT Director, Division of Hematology Oncology Toxicology Office of Hematology and Oncology Products I have examined pharmacology/toxicology supporting and labeling reviews for Lonsurf conducted by Drs. Khasar and Fox, and secondary memorandum and labeling provided by Dr. Helms. Following finalization of the primary and secondary reviews, additional discussion occurred about the proper description of the established pharmacological class (EPC) for this combination product. As the anticancer activity of the drug is through the action of the trifluridine portion of the drug, the original recommendation was to use the EPC for this portion of the drug to describe the EPC for LONSURF. Upon further review and discussion, and consistent with practices with other combination products in which one component of the product is present primarily to affect the pharmacokinetics of the other component, the Division revised the recommendation for the EPC for LONSURF to be “LONSURF is a combination of trifluridine, a nucleoside metabolic inhibitor, and tipiracil, a thymidine phosphorylase inhibitor, indicated for…” I concur with Dr. Helms’ conclusion that Lonsurf may be approved for the proposed indication and that no additional nonclinical studies are needed.

E-mail: [email protected] Running Title: TAS-102 for Treatment of Advanced Colorectal Cancer Disclosure of Potential Conflicts of Interest No potential conflicts of interest were disclosed. Abstract TAS-102 is a novel oral formulation of trifluridine (TFT) and tipiracil hydrochloride (TPI), a thymidine phosphorylase inhibitor. TFT was originally synthesized in the 1960s and is a nucleoside analog that impedes DNA synthesis by inhibition of thymidylate synthase. TFT’s main mechanism of action however seems to be its incorporation into DNA, which distinguishes TFT from current well-known antimetabolites like 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). The rapid degradation of TFT brought initial clinical development to a halt, but TFT re-entered clinical trials when addition of a TPI was found to improve the bio-availability of TFT.

AEs of any-cause cancer (mCRC). led to dosing interruptions, modifications, and discontinuations Patients and Methods: Dose escalation (3þ3 design) in advanced in 29%, 17%, and 4% of patients, respectively. No treatment- gastrointestinal tumors was followed by expansion in mCRC. related deaths occurred. Three patients (12%) experienced partial During dose escalation, patients received FTD/TPI (20–35 mg/m2 responses and 16 (67%) patients had stable disease lasting twice daily; days 1–5 of a 14-day cycle) and irinotecan (120– >4 months. The median progression-free survival was 7.9 months 180 mg/m2; day 1).
