Phase 1 trial of entinostat as monotherapy and combined with exemestane in Japanese patients with hormone receptor-positive advanced breast cancer
Abstract Background Entinostat is an oral inhibitor of class I histone deacetylases intended for endocrine therapy-resistant patients with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) advanced or metastatic breast cancer (BC). We examined the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of entinostat monotherapy and c...

We examined the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of entinostat monotherapy and combined entinostat/exemestane in Japanese patients. Methods This phase 1 study (3 + 3 dose-escalation design) enrolled postmenopausal women with advanced/metastatic HR+ BC previously treated with nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitors. Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of entinostat monotherapy (3 mg/qw, 5 mg/qw, or 10 mg/q2w) and entinostat+exemestane (5 mg/qw + 25 mg/qd) were assessed. Pharmacokinetics, lysine acetylation (Ac-K), and T-cell activation markers were measured at multiple time points. Results Twelve patients were enrolled. No DLTs or grade 3–5 adverse events (AEs) occurred. Drug-related AEs (≥ 2 patients) during DLT observation were hypophosphatemia, nausea, and platelet count decreased. Six patients (50%) achieved stable disease (SD) for ≥ 6 months, including one treated for > 19 months. Median progression-free survival was 13.9 months (95% CI 1.9–not calculable); median overall survival was not reached. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve and Ac-K in peripheral blood CD19+ B cells increased dose-proportionally. The changing patterns of entinostat concentrations and Ac-K levels were well correlated. T-cell activation markers increased over time; CD69 increased more in patients with SD ≥ 6 months vs. SD < 6 months. Conclusions Entinostat monotherapy and combined entinostat/exemestane were well tolerated in Japanese patients, with no additional safety concerns compared with previous reports. The correlation between pharmacokinetics and Ac-K in peripheral blood CD19+ B cells, and also T-cell activation markers, merits further investigation.
