Phase I study investigating the safety and feasibility of combining imatinib mesylate (Gleevec) with sorafenib in patients with refractory castration-resistant prostate cancer

Background: Determining the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of sorafenib (S) plus imatinib (IM) in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients. Methods: Refractory CRPC patients were enrolled onto this 3+3 dose escalation designed study. Imatinib pharmacoki...

Zusammenfassung:Background: Determining the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) of sorafenib (S) plus imatinib (IM) in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients. Methods: Refractory CRPC patients were enrolled onto this 3+3 dose escalation designed study. Imatinib pharmacokinetics (PK) were determined on day 15, 4 h post dose with a validated LC–MS assay. Results: Seventeen patients were enrolled; 10 evaluable (6 at 400 mg S qd with 300 mg IM qd (DL0) and 4 at 400 mg S bid with 300 mg IM qd (DL1)); inevaluable patients received
