Study Of PF-00562271, Including Patients With Pancreatic, Head And Neck, Prostatic Neoplasms

A Phase 1, Open-Label, Dose Escalation Study To Evaluate Safety, Pharmacokinetics And Pharmacodynamics Of PF-00562271 In Patients With Advanced Non-Hematologic Malignancies

Phase 1 safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics trial of the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) inhibitor PF-00562271 in patients with positive Positron Emission Tomography [PET] scans due to advanced non-hematologic malignancies, including pancreatic, head and neck, and prostatic neoplasms, and patients with other malignancies appropriate for serial biopsy. Screening consists of a Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography [FDG-PET] and tumor imaging, medical history, physical examination, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group [ECOG] performance status, blood draws, a pregnancy test for female patients of childbearing potential. Treatment consists of PF00562271 tablets continued until progression of disease, unacceptable toxicity, or patient request. Evaluations for bioactivity are measured by serial FDG-PET and blood tests for biomarkers related to FAK and PYK2 kinase activities.

Percentage of Participants With Best Overall Response as Measured Using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)

Best response recorded from start of treatment (Tx) until disease progression. Complete response: disappearance of all target lesions. Partial response: ≥30% decrease in sum of longest dimensions (LD) of target lesions referencing baseline sum LD. Progressive disease: ≥20% increase in sum LD of target lesions from smallest sum LD recorded since Tx start or appearance of ≥1 new lesions. Stable disease: neither sufficient shrinkage to=PR nor sufficient increase to=PD during first 6 weeks after Tx start referencing smallest sum LD since Tx start.
