From Lab….. To Clinical Trials…. To Standard Practice Effective Therapy Laboratory data
Drug Development • Identification of new agents • Preclinical requirements:efficacy, toxicology (ICH) • Formulation, manufacturing • Regulatory (government) review(IND submission) • Phase I, II, III clinical trials • Regulatory (government) review(NDS = new drug submission)
Anticancer Drug Discovery • Mechanism based • Rational synthesis or discovery of agents targeting mechanisms of malignant behavior. Then test in laboratory models • Screening/Compound based • Screen new chemical entities for activity in cancer models in the laboratory. Then discover mechanisms of action.
Screening/CompoundBased Discovery • Majority of available anticancer drugs have been identified by screening • Sources: plants (vincas, taxanes) microbes (doxorubicin) chemicals (cisplatin) • Most act by interfering with molecular process of cell division. Therefore, many normal tissues will be affected.
Preclinical Requirements A new drug must have completed the following prior to patient testing: • Demonstration of efficacy in tumor models • Toxicology testing: 2 species (rodent and non-rodent) • Formulation and manufacturing • Animal pharmacokinetics • Mechanism of action studies

Clinical Trials • Phase I • Phase II • Phase III
Phase I Trials:Important issues What kind of purpose (goals) To determine the appropriate dose for phase II evaluation Dose Limiting toxicity (DLT) Those toxic effects that by nature of their severity limit further dose escalation Maximum-tolerated dose (MTD) That dose producing a certain frequency of DLT within the treated population Eisenhauer EA et al, J Clin Oncol 2000; 18: 684-692
Phase I Design:Selection of Starting Dose • Based on mouse toxicity: • 0.1 Mouse Equivalent LD10 (MELD10) • In instances where dog toxicity show this dose to be toxic, 1/3 Toxic Dose Low (TDL) in dogs is selected as starting dose
Severe toxicity 3 pts Recommended dose 3 pts 3 pts Dose 3 pts 3 pts 3 pts Phase I Trials • Find highest safe dose (1 level below MTD) • Identify side effects Dose escalating by modified Fibonacci
Phase II Trials • Screen drug for activity in cancer patients • Use recommended dose • Test it in 15-30 patients with same tumor type • Look for objective tumor shrinkage: Partial or Complete Response
RECIST Guidelines:Response Criteria • Target lesions ( LD / LD baseline) • CR • PR: 30% (50% surf. area and 65% volume) • SD • PD: 20% (44% surf. area and 73% volume) • Non-target lesions • CR (including markers) • Non-CR • PD

What is Efficacy? • Response Efficacy • Efficacy is improved: • Cure rates • Survival • Quality of life: i.e. meaningful symptom palliation • “Response” is a measure of biologic effect which may be a marker for efficacy
Phase III TrialsOnce a new agent has shown activity in phase II, comparative trials are usually designed. New agent can be given alone or in combination • Objectives: Compare “new” to “standard” • Endpoints: Survival, toxicity, quality of life. • Sample Size: 200-2000 patients
Phase III Trials: Definitive Tests of Efficacy • Large studies to detect “significant” differences in outcomes of interest: • Cure, survival, quality of life • Randomized design: • Allows unbiased assessment of treatment effect • Sample Size: • Determines power with which one can detect postulated differences
How Much Improvement in Efficacy? • Critical question which drives: • Trial design and sample size • Eventual change in practice • Patients and physicians (staff) differ on degree of improvement which must be seen to choose a more toxic therapy. • If patients views are accepted: many trials are too small (underpowered).
