The objective of this Phase I trial was to determine dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) and the maximally tolerated dose of the radiosensitizer Nelfinavir in combination with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CT-RT) in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Nelfinavir (Dose Level (DL) 1: 625mg PO BID, DL2:1250mg PO BID) was administered for 7 to 14 days prior to and concurrently with concurrent CT-RT to patients (pts) with biopsy confirmed IIIA or IIIB unresectable NSCLC. Five patients were treated at DL1; 8 patients were treated at DL2. Patients were treated with concurrent CT-RT to a dose of 66.6Gy. DLTs were defined as any treatment related Grade 4 hematologic toxicity requiring a break in therapy or non-hematologic Grade 3 or higher toxicity except esophagitis and pneumonitis. Sixteen patients were enrolled and 13 patients received at least one dose of nelfinavir. 12 patients were treated with nelfinavir and concurrent chemoradiotherapy. No DLTs have been observed at either dose level. The maximum tolerated dose of Nelfinavir was therefore 1250 mg PO BID. Six patients experienced Grade 4 leukopenia. One patient experienced grade 4 thromobcytopenia. Median follow-up for all 12 response-evaluable patients was 31.6 months and for survivors is 23.5 months. Nine of the 12 patients had evaluable post-treatment PET/CT with metabolic response as follows: overall response: 9/9 (100%); complete response: 5/9 (56%); partial response 4/9 (44%). Nelfinavir administered with concurrent CT-RT is associated with acceptable toxicity in stage IIIA/IIIB NSCLC. The metabolic response and tumor response data suggest that nelfinavir has promising activity in this disease.
