Randomized phase II trial of irofulven (IROF)/prednisone (P), IROF/capecitabine (C)/P or mitoxantrone (M)/P in docetaxel-pretreated hormone refractory prostate cancer (HRPC) patients (pts)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
14513 Background: IROF, a semisynthetic derivative of the natural product illudin S, is a novel DNA binding agent. IROF alone or in combination has shown activity in phase I-II trials in HRPC, notably with IROF/C (Cvitkovic et al, ASCO 2004). Methods: Pts with histologically-proven metastatic HRPC who progressed (RECIST or PSA) during prior docetaxel or within 3 months of discontinuing treatment, with adequate hematologic and organ functions and KPS ≥70% were stratified by pain and randomized to one of three treatments: Arm A: IROF (0.45 mg/kg, day 1 and 8 q3weeks [w]) and P (10 mg po daily); Arm B: IROF (0.4 mg/kg day 1 and 15), C(2000 mg/m2 day 1–15 q4w) and P; or Arm C: M (12 mg/m2 q3w) and P. Primary endpoint was TTP (RECIST, PSA or clinical progression); secondary endpoints included PSA response (≥50% decrease for ≥4 w), pain response, and toxicity; 135 pts are planned in a 2:2:1 ratio. The study was powered to detect a difference in TTP of 1.5 vs 3 months. Results: As of Dec 2005, 78 pts were randomized and treated with ≥ 5 months follow-up (A/B/C: 31/31/16). Median age (A/B/C) 69/70/61, KPS ≥80% 24/28/9, median baseline PSA ng/mL 90/147/235, disease related pain at baseline 61%/58%/63%; other characteristics, including metastatic site distribution, were similar between arms. Safety: 65 pts were evaluated for safety. Median cycles/Pt (A, B, C) 3/2/2; grade 3/4 toxicities (% pts A, B, C): asthenia (4%, 16%, 0%), vomiting (0%, 12%, 0%) and diarrhea (4%, 8%, 0%). The most common grade 3/4 laboratory abnormalities were neutropenia (10%, 6%, 31%) and thrombocytopenia (15%, 12%, 0%). Conclusion: IROF in combination with P and, in particular, C/P shows improved activity and acceptable tolerance compared to M/P in docetaxel-resistant HRPC. Patient accrual is complete as of Jan 2006, and final results will be presented. [Table: see text] [Table: see text]

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
