Hypomethylating agents azacitidine and decitabine have shown efficacy in myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but responses are limited and of short duration, possibly due to short half-lives and suboptimal bone marrow exposure. Guadecitabine (SGI-110), a dinucleotide of decitabine and deoxyguanosine, is resistant to degradation by cytidine deaminase thus achieving longer half-life and exposure of its active metabolite, decitabine. We aimed to assess the safety and clinical activity of subcutaneously given guadecitabine in treatment-naïve older patients with AML who were not candidates for intensive chemotherapy. In this multicentre, open-label, phase 2 study, treatment-naïve older patients from 14 North American medical centres with AML who were not candidates for intensive chemotherapy were randomly assigned (1:1, using a computer algorithm) to subcutaneous guadecitabine at 60 or 90 mg/m2 on days 1–5 (5-day schedule) of a 28-day treatment cycle. Subsequently, patients were assigned sequentially to subcutaneous guadecitabine at 60 mg/m2 in a 10-day schedule (at least 2 cycles administered on days 1–5 and 8–12, with subsequent cycles given on a 5-day schedule). The objective was to evaluate and compare the activity and safety of two doses and schedules of guadecitabine, with a primary endpoint of composite complete response (including complete response [CR], CR with incomplete platelet recovery [CRp], and CR with incomplete neutrophil recovery regardless of platelets [CRi]). Response was evaluated in all patients (as-treated) as long as a patient received at least one guadecitabine treatment. Secondary endpoints included safety, survival, and pharmacodynamics. We present the final trial analyses, although at time of database lock, 15 patients were still being monitored for survival including six continuing treatment. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01261312 Between Aug 24, 2012, and Sep 15, 2014, 103 patients received treatment: 51 on a 5-day schedule of guadecitabine (24 received 60 mg/m2, 27 received 90 mg/m2) and 52 on the 10-day schedule. Median age was 77 years. Poor prognostic features included ECOG status ≥2 (39 [38%]), poor-risk cytogenetics (43 [42%]), and secondary AML (37 [36%]). Characteristics were generally balanced across doses and schedules. CRc rates were 54% (13 patients), 59% (16 patients), and 50% (26 patients) for the 5-day 60, 5-day 90, and 10-day 60 mg/m2 regimens, respectively. The most common grade 3 or higher adverse events, regardless of relationship to treatment, for the 5- and 10-day schedules, respectively, included febrile neutropenia (31 [61%] and 36 [69%]), thrombocytopenia (25 [49%] and 22 [42%]), neutropenia (20 [39%] and 18 [35%]), pneumonia (15 [29%] and 19 [37%]), anaemia (15 [29%] and 12 [23%]), and sepsis (8 [16%] and 14 [27%]). The most common serious adverse events, regardless of relationship to treatment, for the 5- and 10-day schedules, respectively, were febrile neutropenia (27 [53%] and 25 [48%]), pneumonia (14 [27%] and 16 [31%]), and sepsis (8 [16%] and 14 [27%]). In treatment-naïve older patients with AML not candidates for intensive chemotherapy, guadecitabine resulted in high CRc rates ≥50% with acceptable safety across the doses and schedules investigated. A phase 3 pivotal study in this patient population is ongoing to evaluate guadecitabine 60 mg/m2 in a 5-day schedule versus standard of care. Astex Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Stand Up To Cancer
