Abstract
e19147 Background: Despite advances in targeted therapies, there is an ongoing need to develop new and effective cytotoxic drug combinations in NSCLC. Preclinical evaluation has demonstrated additive cytotoxicity of pemetrexed and taxanes. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of combining nab-paclitaxel (nP) and pemetrexed (P) in solid tumors with a focus on NSCLC for the phase II expansion. Methods: A 3+3 dose-escalation design was used to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended phase II dose (RP2D). Three dose levels were tested: P 500 mg/m2 day 1 plus nP on day 1 at doses of 180, 220, and 260 mg/m2 every 21 days. Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) in cycle 1 was defined as: grade 4 platelets or grade 3 platelets with bleeding, neutropenia with fever or documented infection, or other grade ≥ 3 non-heme toxicity. Phase II eligibility included advanced NSCLC, ≤ 2 line prior therapy, PS 0-1, adequate organ function. Primary endpoint for further study was response rate (RR) ≥ 25%. Results: Planned dose escalation during the Phase I portion was completed without reaching the MTD. The RP2D was P 500 mg/m2 and nP 260 mg/m2. The phase II portion accrued 37 pts before early closure due to increasing use of first-line pemetrexed/platinum doublet therapy in non-squamous NSCLC. Phase II patient characteristics: median 63 (45-77); M:F 23:14; median cycles 3. In 31 assessable patients: 5 PR, 12 SD and 14 PD. Efficacy: RR =14%; disease control rate (DCR) = 46%; median survival time (MST) = 8.7 months. Pts in the DCR group had a MST of 15.4 vs 4 months in the PD group (p=0.02). Conclusions: P 500 mg/m2 day 1 with nP 260 mg/m2 was feasible and well tolerated. The phase II component demonstrated activity in second-line therapy of advanced NSCLC. Practice patterns have evolved; so further trials of this regimen are not planned. Clinical trial information: NCT00470548.

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.
