Abstract
OBJECTIVE Ovarian cancer five-year survival is poor at <40%. In the absence of effective screening or new treatments, ensuring all women receive optimal treatment is one avenue to improve survival. There is little population-based information regarding the primary chemotherapy treatment that women with epithelial ovarian cancer receive. This information is essential to identify potential gaps in care. METHODS Cancer registries identified all women diagnosed with invasive epithelial ovarian cancer in Australia in 2005 (n=1192). Histopathology, chemotherapy and comorbidity information was abstracted from medical records. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with chemotherapy commencement, regimen, and completion. RESULTS Women >70 years (p<0.0001), those with high-grade, stage IA/IB cancers (vs. stages IC-IV, p=0.003) and those with mucinous cancers (p=0.0002) were less likely to start chemotherapy. Most treated women received platinum-based drugs (97%), but only 68% received combination carboplatin-paclitaxel and only half completed six cycles without treatment modification/delay. Approximately 19% received single-agent carboplatin: mostly those aged >70 (p<0.0001) and/or with co-morbidities (p<0.0001). Age was the strongest predictor of completing six cycles of combination therapy. CONCLUSIONS For specific patient groups, particularly older women, there is notable variation from standard treatment. Understanding how treatment variations affect survival and determining optimal regimens for these groups are research priorities.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed malignancies and the leading cause of cancer-related mortality in Canada. The heterogeneity of nsclc and the importance of linking new targeted agents to the appropriate disease subtype require an individualized approach to treatment. In patients with EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor gene) mutations, EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) provide a highly effective treatment option, with improved toxicity compared with standard chemotherapy. However, the identification of mutation-positive patients is limited by a lack of funding for testing. The length of time required to receive test results and insufficient tissue from biopsies are additional limitations. In Canada, the use of EGFR-TKIs varies based on differences in provincial funding for both testing and treatment. With improvements in testing and access to funding for treatment, targeted use of EGFR-TKIs may greatly improve outcomes in NSCLC.

Abstract
While chemotherapy has been the standard of care for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), efforts have shifted toward evaluating novel targeted agents in an attempt to improve outcome. These targeted agents are directed toward key components in several signalling pathways such as vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-IR). There is also increasing interest in using combinations of targeted agents to inhibit more than one pathway; for example, inhibition of VEGFR + EGFR and VEGFR + PDGFR + EGFR. Further investigation is needed to identify the most appropriate combinations of these targeted agents in select patient subgroups, and to define optimal treatment doses to thereby achieve the best therapeutic index. This review outlines the rationale for combining targeted agents for the treatment of advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was designed to determine the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of brivanib in patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS Ninety patients enrolled in this two-part, phase I open-label study of oral brivanib alaninate. The primary objectives of this study were (in part A) dose-limiting toxicity, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the lowest biologically active dose level and (in part B) the optimal dose/dose range. The secondary objectives of this study were preliminary evidence of antitumor activity, PK and PD. RESULTS Across part A (open-label dose escalation and MTD) and part B (open-label dose optimization), 68 patients received brivanib alaninate. Brivanib demonstrated a manageable toxicity profile at doses of 180-800 mg. Most toxic effects were mild. Systemic exposure of the active moiety brivanib increased linearly ≤1000 mg/day. The MTD was 800 mg/day. Forty-four patients were treated at the MTD: 20 with 800 mg continuously, 11 with 800 mg intermittently and 13 with 400 mg b.i.d. doses. Partial responses were confirmed in two patients receiving brivanib ≥600 mg. Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated statistically significant decreases in parameters reflecting tumor vascularity and permeability after multiple doses in the 800-mg continuous q.d. and 400-mg b.i.d. dose cohorts. CONCLUSION In patients with advanced/metastatic cancer, brivanib demonstrates promising antiangiogenic and antitumor activity and manageable toxicity at doses ≤800 mg orally q.d., the recommended phase II study dose.

Abstract
We recently showed the ability of lovastatin to inhibit the function of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and its downstream signaling of the phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase/AKT pathway. Combining lovastatin with gefitinib, a potent EGFR inhibitor, induced synergistic cytotoxicity in various tumor-derived cell lines. In this study, lovastatin treatment was found to inhibit ligand-induced EGFR dimerization in squamous cell carcinoma cells and its activation of AKT and its downstream targets 4E-binding protein 1 and S6 kinase 1. This inhibition was associated with global protein translational inhibition shown by a decrease in RNA associated polysome fractions. The effects of lovastatin on EGFR function were reversed by the addition of geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate, which functions as a protein membrane anchor. Lovastatin treatment induced actin cytoskeletal disorganization and the expression of geranylgeranylated rho family proteins that regulate the actin cytoskeleton, including rhoA. Lovastatin-induced rhoA was inactive as EGF stimulation failed to activate rhoA and inhibition of the rho-associated kinase, a target and mediator of rhoA function, with Y-27632 also showed inhibitory effects on EGFR dimerization. The ability of lovastatin to inhibit EGFR dimerization is a novel exploitable mechanism regulating this therapeutically relevant target. To explore the potential clinical significance of this combination, we evaluated the effect of statin on the overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) of patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer enrolled in the NCIC Clinical Trials Group phase III clinical trials BR21 (EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor erlotinib versus placebo) and BR18 (carboplatin and paclitaxel with or without the metalloproteinase inhibitor BMS275291). In BR18, use of statin did not affect OS or DSS. In BR21, patients showed a trend for improvement in OS (HR: 0.69, P=0.098) and DSS (HR: 0.62, P=0.048), but there was no statin x treatment interaction effect (P=0.34 and P=0.51 for OS and DSS, respectively).

Abstract
3055 Background: The BLP25 liposome vaccine (L-BLP25, Stimuvax) is an investigational innovative therapeutic cancer vaccine incorporating immunoadjuvant monophosphoryl lipid A and synthetic MUC1 lipopeptide in a liposomal delivery system. In an open-label phase IIb study in 171 pts with stage IIIB/IV NSCLC randomized to best supportive care (BSC) alone (n=83) or BSC + L-BLP25 (1000 μg lipopeptide) (n=88), L-BLP25 pts received weekly vaccinations for 8 weeks (wks) and could continue maintenance vaccinations every 6 wks from wk 13. Results were encouraging (Butts et al, JCO 2005) and a remarkable number of pts received prolonged treatment (tmt). As a result a global phase III study (START) has been initiated. Methods: Safety results for 16 pts from the phase IIb study treated for ≥2 years with L-BLP25 are reported. Results: In these 16 pts (median age 57.5 years, ECOG PS: 0 in 5/16 [31%] and 1 in 11/16 [69%]), there were more females (56% vs 44% [9/16 vs 76/171]) and locoregional stage IIIB disease at entry (81% vs 38% [13/16 vs 65/171]) vs the phase IIb study population. Pts received L-BLP25 for 2.0–7.7 years and 10 pts were treated for >5 years. Compliance with tmt was good: almost all (96%) maintenance vaccinations were given every 6 wks according to the tmt schedule. L-BLP25 was well tolerated: the most common tmt-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were cough (n=12, 75%), fatigue (n=12, 75%), and dyspnea (n=11, 69%). The pattern of TEAEs did not change significantly over time and there was no rise in the incidence of TEAEs with increasing time on tmt. Among the most common TEAEs in years 1, 2, and >2 were nausea (44, 19, and 38%), fatigue (56, 18, and 38%), chest pain (38, 31, and 31%), and cough (38, 25, and 31%). Twelve pts (75%) had tmt-related TEAEs (grade 1/2 in 11/12 pts [92%] and grade 3 in 1/12 [8%]): the most common were injection-site reactions. The occurrence of tmt-related TEAEs decreased with increasing tmt duration. There was no evidence of any TEAEs related to autoimmunity. Analysis of laboratory data did not indicate any long-term renal, liver, or other toxicity. Conclusions: Long-term use of L-BLP25 was without any identifiable safety issues. In particular, there was no evidence of autoimmune reactions with prolonged use. [Table: see text]

Abstract
8074 Background: ABT-869 is a novel orally active, potent and specific inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor and platelet derived growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases. Methods: This ongoing, open-label, randomized, multicenter phase 2 trial of ABT-869 at 0.10 mg/kg daily (Arm A) and 0.25 mg/kg daily (Arm B) until progressive disease (PD) or intolerable toxicity, was initiated to assess antitumor activity and toxicity of ABT-869 in patients (pts) with NSCLC. Eligibility criteria included locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC; ≥ 1 prior systemic treatment, and ≥1 measurable lesion by RECIST criteria. The primary endpoint was the progression free (PF) rate at 16 wks. Secondary endpoints were objective response rate (ORR), time to progression (TTP), progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). CT scans were assessed by the investigator and centrally; central assessment results are provided. Results: 138 patients (pts) were enrolled from 08/07–10/08 from 27 centers with interim data available for 94 pts (Arm A, n=43; Arm B; n=51). Median age was 64 years and 62 years in Arm A and B respectively. For the interim analysis population (Arm A, n=24; Arm B, n=24), 16 (33.3%) pts were PF at 16 wks: 7 (29.2%) in Arm A and 9 (37.5%) in Arm B. The ORR in Arm A (n=30) was 0% and 7.3% in Arm B (n=41). The median TTP and median PFS were 110 and 109 days, and 112 days and 108 days in Arm A and B, respectively. The most common adverse events (AEs) in Arm A were fatigue (35%), nausea (21%), and anorexia (21%), and in Arm B were hypertension (51%), fatigue (51%), diarrhea (43%), anorexia (41%), nausea (31%), proteinuria (31%) and vomiting (26%). The most common grade 3/4 toxicities in the Arm A were fatigue (7%), ascites (5%), dehydration (5%), pleural effusion (5%), and in the Arm B were hypertension (23%), fatigue (8%), PPE syndrome (8%), dyspnoea (6%) and stomatitis (6%). Most AE's were mild/moderate and reversible with interruptions/dose reduction/or discontinuation of ABT-869. Conclusions: ABT-869 demonstrates an acceptable safety profile and appears to be active in NSCLC patients. [Table: see text]

Abstract
PURPOSE To provide consensus recommendations on the use of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIS) in patients with advanced or meta-static non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS Using a systematic literature search, phase II trials, randomized phase III trials, and meta-analyses were identified for inclusion. RESULTS A total of forty-six trials were included. Clear evidence is available that EGFR-TKIS should not be administered concurrently with platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line therapy in advanced or metastatic nsclc. Evidence is currently insufficient to recommend single-agent EGFR-TKIS as first-line therapy either in unselected populations or in populations selected on the basis of molecular or clinical characteristics. Following failure of platinum-based chemotherapy, the evidence suggests that second-line EGFR-TKIS or second-line chemotherapy result in similar survival. Quality of life and symptom improvement for patients treated with an EGFR-TKI appear better than they do for patients treated with second-line docetaxel. Sequence of therapy may not appear to be important, but if survival is the outcome of interest, the goal should be to optimize the number of patients receiving three lines of therapy. Based on available data, molecular markers and clinical characteristics do not appear to be predictive of a differential survival benefit from an EGFR-TKI and therefore those factors should not be used to select patients for EGFR-TKI therapy. CONCLUSIONS The EGFR-TKIS represent an additional therapy in the treatment of advanced or metastatic NSCLC. The results of ongoing clinical trials may define the optimal role for these agents and the effectiveness of combinations of these agents with other targeted agents.
