  • Efficacy and Safety of Abemaciclib, an Inhibitor of CDK4 and CDK6, for Patients with Breast Cancer, Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer, and Other Solid Tumors

Flaherty5, Patrick Y. Wen3, and Geoffrey I. Shapiro3 ABSTRACT We evaluated the safety, pharmacokinetic profile, pharmacodynamic effects, and antitumor activity of abemaciclib, an orally bioavailable inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK) 4 and 6, in a multicenter study including phase I dose escalation followed by tumor- specific cohorts for breast cancer, non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), glioblastoma, melanoma, and colorectal cancer. A total of 225 patients were enrolled: 33 in dose escalation and 192 in tumor-specific cohorts. Dose-limiting toxicity was grade 3 fatigue. The maximum tolerated dose was 200 mg every 12 hours. The most common possibly related treatment-emergent adverse events involved fatigue and the gastrointestinal, renal, or hematopoietic systems. Plasma concentrations increased with dose, and pharmacodynamic effects were observed in proliferating keratinocytes and tumors. Radiographic responses were achieved in previously treated patients with breast cancer, NSCLC, and melanoma. For hormone receptor–positive breast cancer, the overall response rate was 31%; moreover, 61% of patients achieved either response or stable disease lasting ≥6 months.

    NHS Borders: New Medicines Decisions APRIL 2019 – MARCH 2020 Please note: We are happy to consider requests for other languages or formats. Please contact Pharmacy Admin Office [email protected] In Scotland, a newly licensed medicine is routinely available in a health board only after it has been: • accepted for use in NHSScotland by the Scottish Medicines Consortium (SMC), and • accepted for use by the health board’s Area Drug and Therapeutics Committee (ADTC). All medicines accepted by SMC are available in Scotland, but may not be considered ‘routinely available’ within a particular health board because of available services and preferences for alternative medicines. ‘Routinely available’ means that a medicine can be prescribed by the appropriately qualified person within a health board. Each health board has an ADTC. The ADTC is responsible for advising the health board on all aspects of the use of medicines. Medicines routinely available within a health board are usually included in the local formulary. The formulary is a list of medicines for use in the health board that has been agreed by ADTC in consultation with local clinical experts. It offers a choice of medicines for healthcare professionals to prescribe for common medical conditions. A formulary can help improve safety as prescribers are likely to become more familiar with the medicines in it and also helps make sure that standards of care are consistent across the health board. How does the health board decide which new medicines to make routinely available for patients? The ADTC in a health board will consider national and local guidance before deciding whether to make a new medicine routinely available.

Graves Copy Editor: Jing-Wen Zhang Production Editor: Jing Yu Abstract Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are important regulatory enzymes in the normal physiological processes that drive cell-cycle transitions and regulate transcription. Virtually all cancers harbour genomic alterations that lead to the constitutive activation of CDKs, resulting in the proliferation of cancer cells. CDK inhibitors (CKIs) are currently in clinical use for the treatment of breast cancer, combined with endocrine therapy. In this review, we describe the potential of CKIs for the treatment of cancer with specific focus on glioblastoma (GBM), the most common and aggressive primary brain tumour in adults. Despite intense effort to combat GBM with surgery, radiation and temozolomide chemotherapy, the median survival for patients is 15 months and the majority of patients experience disease recurrence within 6-8 months of treatment onset.

  • Targeted Neoadjuvant Therapies in HR+/HER2-Breast Cancers
    cancers Review Targeted Neoadjuvant Therapies in HR+/HER2−Breast Cancers: Challenges for Improving pCR Nandini Dey, Jennifer Aske and Pradip De * Translational Oncology Laboratory, Avera Cancer Institute, Sioux Falls, SD 57105, USA; [email protected] (N.D.); [email protected] (J.A.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-605-322-3297; Fax: +1-605-322-6901 Simple Summary: A high pathological complete response in the neoadjuvant setting is directly associated with a better overall response. A favorable prognosis is achieved when preoperative chemo or endocrine therapy succeeds in achieving a high pathological complete response (total eradication of tumors in the breast and the lymph nodes). Approximately 70% of breast cancers are ER-positive. The growth and progression of ER-positive breast cancers are critically dependent on estrogen receptor signaling. Although endocrine therapies (tamoxifen, an aromatase inhibitor, and fulvestrant) in ER-positive breast cancers are the backbone of adjuvant setting, the efficacy of such therapies in terms of achieving a pathological complete response is not encouraging in the neoadjuvant setting. Similar results are observed following targeted therapies in a neoadjuvant setting. Reviewing the literature in the context of different therapies of ER-positive breast cancers in the neoadjuvant setting, here we propose two hypothetical strategies to induce apoptosis based on the background of genomic alterations in the tumor tissues. Abstract: A strong association of pCR (pathological complete response) with disease-free survival or overall survival is clinically desirable. The association of pCR with disease-free survival or Citation: Dey, N.; Aske, J.; De, P. overall survival in ER+/HER2−breast cancers following neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NAT) or Targeted Neoadjuvant Therapies in neoadjuvant endocrine therapy (NET) is relatively low as compared to the other two subtypes of HR+/HER2−Breast Cancers: breast cancers, namely triple-negative and HER2+ amplified.
