A phase II study of single agent mocetinostat, an oral isotype-selective histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, in patients with diffuse large cell B-cell (DLBCL) and follicular (FL) lymphomas.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
8535 Background: Mocetinostat (MGCD0103) is an orally available, isotype-selective, non-hydroxamate HDAC inhibitor targeting HDACs 1,2, 3 and 11 with single-agent activity in Hodgkin’s lymphoma and in AML and MDS (in combination with 5-azacitidine). More than 430 patients have been treated to date. Methods: This open-label, phase II trial enrolled patients with DLBCL and FL. Patients received mocetinostat at doses ranging from 70-110 mg 3x/wk every 28 days. Anticancer activity, safety, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics were evaluated. Results: Sixty-nine patients with DLBCL (n=41) and FL (n=28) were enrolled for treatment at starting doses of 85-110 mg. Median age was 62 years (range: 32 to 81). Median duration of treatment was ~3 months (range: <1 to 24). Objective response rate in DLBCL and FL, respectively, was 7/41 (17%; including 2 unconfirmed PRs) and 3/28 (11%; including 1 CR). Median time to response was 2.0 mos (range 1.7-21.0) and 5.3 mos (range 4.3-6.0) respectively. Stable disease was achieved by 13/41 (32%) and 14/28 (50%), respectively, for a disease control rate of 49% and 61%, respectively. Mean duration of SD in patients with DBLCL was ~4.5 mos (range 2-12 mos), with 10 patients remaining stable for ≥3 mos. Among FL patients, mean duration of SD was approximately 4.1 mos (range 1.7-13 mos), with 9 patients remaining stable for ≥3 mos. The FL CR occurred in a 62-year-old female with paratracheal, subcarinal and portal target lesions who achieved a PR after 4 cycles and CR after 12 cycles that persisted through the remaining 4 mos on study. Study drug was discontinued for adverse events in 19/69 (28%). Fatigue, weight loss or anorexia were most common (n=4 each). A total of 26 drug-related SAEs were reported among 12 patients (17%; 1-6 events per pt). There were no drug related deaths. Enrollment is complete and final data will be presented. Conclusions: Single-agent mocetinostat has activity in DLBCL and FL. Fatigue, gastrointestinal, and cardiac symptoms are the most common adverse events resulting in discontinuation of dosing. Based on the acceptable tolerability and clinical activity further development is warranted. Clinical trial information: NCT00359086.

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.
