Long-term outcomes of responders in a randomized, controlled phase II trial of aptamer AS1411 in AML.
Sub-category: Leukemia
Category: Leukemia, Myelodysplasia, and Transplantation
Meeting: 2010 ASCO Annual Meeting
Citation: J Clin Oncol 28:7s, 2010 (suppl; abstr 6557)
Abstract No: 6557
Session: Leukemia, Myelodysplasia, and Transplantation
Type: General Poster Session
Time: Saturday June 5, 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM
Location: S Hall A2
http://abstract.asco.org/AbstView_74_49933.html
Conclusions:
This phase II trial suggested that addition of AS1411 to cytarabine may enhance anti-leukemic activity and that the combination has an acceptable safety profile in patients with relapsed and refractory AML.
Follow-up suggests substantial survival durations in some patients responding to AS1411 + cytarabine.
A phase IIb study is now evaluating responses, duration of responses and survival in AML patients randomized to AS1411 + cytarabine or cytarabine alone.

Antisoma plc: Antisoma announces presentation at ASCO of new data supporting AS1413 and AS1411
London, UK, Cambridge, MA, and Chicago, IL: 5 June 2010 - Antisoma plc (LSE: ASM; USOTC: ATSMY) announces the presentation of new data supporting AS1413 and AS1411 at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting being held in Chicago from June 4-8.
Glyn Edwards, CEO of Antisoma, said: "We're delighted to share a wealth of new data on AS1413 and AS1411 at the ASCO meeting. Both drugs are approaching important milestones, with phase III data on AS1413 and phase IIb data on AS1411 due in the next 12 months. The latest findings provide further evidence of the unique potential of these novel approaches to cancer therapy."
Highlights of data presented:
· Meta-analysis of published acute myeloid leukemia (AML) trials shows significant link between failure to respond to standard therapy and presence of the multi-drug resistance mechanism P-glycoprotein, underlining the opportunity for AS1413, which bypasses multi-drug resistance
· Analysis of phase II data shows comparable activity with AS1413 plus cytarabine in the two subgroups of secondary AML patients being studied in the ongoing AS1413 phase III trial (patients with prior myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and patients previously treated for other cancers)
· Follow up of AS1411 phase II trial in relapsed/refractory AML shows durable remissions among patients who responded to AS1411 plus cytarabine, supporting ongoing development of AS1411 in AML
· Phase II trial of AS1411 in renal cancer provides further evidence of anti-cancer activity, suggesting that AS1411 could have application in a variety of cancer settings
P-glycoprotein (Pgp) is a cell-membrane pump that removes chemotherapy drugs from cells. It is a key contributor to multi-drug resistance (MDR) and is common in cancer cells of patients with AML. Today's Leukemia poster session includes a meta-analysis evaluating the impact of Pgp on remission rates in AML. Presented by Professor J.-P. Marie of the HÃ'pital Dieu, Paris, France, it includes 74 published studies with over 4,500 evaluable patients, all of whom were treated with currently available therapies for AML.
The meta-analysis shows that the presence of Pgp significantly reduces the likelihood of achieving complete remission with currently available therapies (overall remission rates were 74% in patients with Pgp-negative disease and 46% in patients with Pgp-positive disease). This highlights the need for new treatments unaffected by Pgp. Antisoma's AS1413 (amonafide L-malate) is known to evade Pgp and other MDR mechanisms. It is therefore being developed as a potential alternative to anthracyclines and related AML treatments that are susceptible to MDR. A 450-patient randomised phase III trial, ACCEDE, is comparing AS1413 with the anthracycline daunorubicin in patients with secondary AML, where MDR is particularly common and outcomes with current therapies are poor.
Prof Marie said: "This meta-analysis underlines the importance of multi-drug resistance as a factor compromising the results of current treatments for AML and highlights the need for new treatments that can bypass multi-drug resistance mechanisms."
The Leukemia poster session also includes a new evaluation of data from Antisoma's phase II trial of AS1413 in secondary AML. Performed by Dr Mikkael Sekeres, Director of the Leukemia Program at the Cleveland Clinic, and colleagues, this compares outcomes in the two groups of patients that together comprise secondary AML: those with prior MDS and those with a history of treatment with radiotherapy or chemotherapy for other cancers. Response rates and longer term outcomes in the two patient types were comparable, reinforcing the validity of secondary AML as a grouping when considering treatment options for these patients.
A third presentation in the Leukemia session reports updated findings from Antisoma's randomised phase II trial of AS1411 in relapsed and refractory AML. This trial previously reported a higher remission rate in patients receiving AS1411 plus high-dose cytarabine (~20%) compared with patients receiving cytarabine alone (~5%). The new data, presented by Dr Robert Stuart of the Medical University of South Carolina, show that a number of the patients who responded to the AS1411-based regimen appeared to derive longer term benefit, with substantial survival durations (12-20 months plus) in five of the eight responding patients.
Monday's Genitourinary Cancer poster session includes the findings from a 35-patient phase II study of AS1411 as monotherapy in advanced renal cancer refractory to at least one tyrosine kinase inhibitor. While Antisoma has decided not to pursue this indication for commercial reasons, the data provide further evidence that AS1411 has activity in a variety of cancer settings. The presentation, given by Dr Jonathan Rosenberg of the Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center, shows that one patient had a sustained partial response, with tumour shrinkage exceeding 80%. Twenty-one patients (60%) showed disease stabilisation according to independent assessment, which indicated that median progression-free survival was 3.9 months, comparable with values reported for active agents in the same setting.
The new 'Trials in Progress' session on Monday includes poster presentations on both AS1413 and AS1411. One details an ongoing phase IIa pharmacokinetic and efficacy study of AS1413, which includes a broader range of AML patients than the current phase III study. The other describes the randomised phase IIb study of AS1411 in relapsed and refractory AML, which is expected to report headline data in the first half of 2011.
Details of the presentations at the meeting are provided below. The posters will be made available at www.antisoma.com (http://www.antisoma.com/) when they have been presented.

About AML (acute myeloid leukaemia)
AML is a type of cancer in which the bone marrow makes abnormal and immature blood cells, eventually leading to bone marrow failure. The American Cancer Society estimates that there will be over 13,000 new cases of AML diagnosed this year in the US alone.
About AS1413 (amonafide L-malate)
AS1413 (amonafide L-malate) was added to Antisoma's pipeline through the acquisition of Xanthus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in June 2008. AS1413 is a novel DNA intercalator that induces apoptotic signalling by blocking topoisomerase II binding to DNA. This differs from the action of classical topoisomerase II inhibitors, which induce apoptosis by causing extensive DNA damage. A further distinctive feature of AS1413 is its ability to evade Pgp and related transporters responsible for multi-drug resistance (MDR). A pivotal phase III trial (ACCEDE) is evaluating AS1413 as a treatment for secondary AML, a condition often associated with MDR and in which outcomes with currently available treatments are poor. Earlier this month, the US Food and Drug Administration granted AS1413 Fast Track status for the treatment of secondary AML.
About AS1411
AS1411 was originally developed by Dr Paula Bates, Dr John Trent and Prof. Donald Miller at the University of Alabama and later at the University of Louisville. Antisoma added AS1411 to its pipeline when it acquired the Louisville-based company Aptamera Inc. in 2005. AS1411 belongs to a new type of drugs called aptamers. These are short pieces of DNA or RNA that fold into three-dimensional structures capable of targeting particular proteins. AS1411 is a DNA aptamer that binds to nucleolin, a protein expressed in the nucleus of all cells but which in cancer cells is also exposed on the cell surface, providing a basis for specific targeting by AS1411. When AS1411 binds to nucleolin on cancer cells, it is internalised and causes apoptosis through interference with various functions of nucleolin. AS1411 is being evaluated in a phase IIb trial in patients with relapsed and refractory AML.
