Title A phase IIa study of afuresertib, an oral pan-AKT inhibitor, in patients with Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
URL
Abstract Text Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a clonal neoplasm characterized by widely varied clinical presentations, including multisystem involvement and systemic inflammatory symptoms. The AKT pathway is relevant to survival and proliferation of dendritic cells, and is also often upregulated in hematopoietic malignancies. A clinical response in an adult patient with LCH participating in the first-in-human trial of afuresertib prompted this prospective trial.The population in the current study included treatment-naïve (n = 7) and recurrent/refractory patients with LCH (n = 10), who received oral afuresertib (125 mg). The majority of patients were treated for > 24 weeks, with four patients receiving treatment for > 48 weeks.Pharmacokinetic analysis showed similar exposures in previously reported patients with other hematologic malignancies. Primary drug-related toxicities included Grade 1/2 nausea, diarrhea, dyspepsia, and vomiting. Grade 3 toxicities included fatigue, diarrhea, and pain (one of each). Another severe adverse event involved soft tissue necrosis. The overall response rate in evaluable subjects was 33% in treatment-naïve patients and 28% in patients with recurrent/refractory disease, which did not meet the predefined Bayesian criteria for efficacy.Afuresertib has clinical activity in some patients with newly diagnosed and advanced LCH.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
