Phase I study of bevacizumab plus irinotecan in pediatric patients with recurrent/refractory solid tumors.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:Studies have suggested that bevacizumab has shown activity against various pediatric solid tumors. We, therefore, conducted a Phase I study of bevacizumab plus irinotecan in Japanese children with recurrent, progressive or refractory solid tumors. METHODS:The starting dose was bevacizumab 10 mg/kg over 60-90 min and irinotecan 125 mg/m(2) over 90 min intravenously on Days 1, 15 and 29. The dose of irinotecan was 340 mg/m(2) for patients receiving enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs. Treatment was repeated every 6 weeks for up to three courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. RESULTS:Of 11 patients, 9 (median age, 9 years) were fully assessable for toxicity and received 24 courses. Dose-limiting toxicities were Grade 2 diarrhea and Grade 4 neutropenia/thrombocytopenia in two of the five patients at dose level 1. No dose-limiting toxicities were observed in four patients at dose level -1 at bevacizumab 10 mg/kg and irinotecan 100 mg/m(2) (270 mg/m(2) for patients taking enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs). The maximum-tolerated dose was bevacizumab 10 mg/kg and irinotecan 100 mg/m(2). The most frequent non-dose-limiting toxicities were Grade 1 or 2 hypertension, bleeding and hematologic toxicity. One patient with optic nerve glioma had a partial response. Three patients with medulloblastoma, optic nerve glioma and diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma had stable disease. CONCLUSIONS:Combination chemotherapy of bevacizumab plus irinotecan was well tolerated in children. We plan Phase II pediatric studies at doses of bevacizumab 10 mg/kg and irinotecan 100 mg/m(2) every 2 weeks (270 mg/m(2) for patients taking enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs).
