Abstract
ABSTRACT FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have clinical efficacy for patients with FLT3-mutated AML (acute myeloid leukemia), but their impact is limited by resistance in the setting of monotherapy and by tolerability problems when used in combination therapies. FF-10101 is a novel compound that covalently binds to a cysteine residue near the active site of FLT3, irreversibly inhibiting receptor signaling. It is effective against most FLT3 activating mutations, and, unlike other inhibitors, is minimally vulnerable to resistance induced by FLT3 ligand. We conducted a phase 1 dose escalation study of oral FF-10101 in patients with relapsed and/or refractory AML, the majority of whom harbored FLT3-activating mutations and/or had prior exposure to FLT3 inhibitors. Fifty-four participants enrolled in cohorts receiving doses ranging from 10 to 225 mg per day and 50 to 100 mg twice daily (BID). The dose limiting toxicities were diarrhea and QT prolongation. Among 40 response-evaluable participants, the composite complete response rate was 10%, and the overall response rate (including partial responses) was 12.5%, including patients who had progressed on gilteritinib. Overall, 56% of participants had prior exposure to FLT3 inhibitors. The recommended phase 2 dose was 75 mg BID. FF-10101 potentially represents a next-generation advance in the management of FLT3-mutated AML. This trial was registered at www.ClinicalTrials.gov as #NCT03194685.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The nucleoside FF-10502-01, structurally similar to but with different biologic effects than gemcitabine, shows promising activity both alone and combined with cisplatin in preclinical gemcitabine-resistant tumor models. We conducted an open-label, single-arm, 3 + 3 first-in-human trial to explore the safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of FF-10502-01 in patients with solid tumors. METHODS Patients with inoperable metastatic tumors refractory to standard therapies were enrolled. Escalating intravenous FF-10502-01 doses (8-135 mg/m2 ) were administered weekly for 3 weeks in 28-day cycles until progressive disease or unacceptable toxicity was observed. Three expansion cohorts were subsequently evaluated. RESULTS A phase 2 dose of 90 mg/m2 was determined after evaluating 40 patients. Dose-limiting toxicities included hypotension and nausea. Phase 2a enrolled patients with cholangiocarcinoma (36), gallbladder cancer (10), and pancreatic/other tumors (20). Common adverse events were grade 1-2 rash, pruritus, fever, and fatigue. Grade 3 or 4 hematologic toxicities were observed at low incidences, including thrombocytopenia (5.1%) and neutropenia (2%). Confirmed partial responses (PRs) occurred in five patients with gemcitabine-refractory tumors, including three with cholangiocarcinoma and one each with gallbladder and urothelial cancer. Median progression-free and overall survival rates in patients with cholangiocarcinoma were 24.7 and 39.1 weeks, respectively. Prolonged progression-free survival in patients with cholangiocarcinoma was associated with BAP1 and PBRM1 mutations. CONCLUSION FF-10502-01 was well tolerated with manageable side effects and limited hematologic toxicity. Durable PRs and disease stabilizations were observed in heavily pretreated biliary tract patients who had received prior gemcitabine. FF-10502-01 is distinct from gemcitabine and may represent an effective therapy.

Abstract
3097 Background: FF-10832 is a stable liposomal formulation of gemcitabine (GEM) shown to overcome resistance through increased plasma stability and enhanced tumor drug delivery. Macrophage uptake and immune activation in the tumor microenvironment (TME) play a role in the superior efficacy of FF-10832 compared to GEM, with selective, marrow-sparing biodistribution contributing to an improved safety profile. Methods: A 3+3 design determined the safety, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLT), pharmacokinetics (PK), and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). FF-10832 was administered IV once or twice per cycle on a 28 or 21-day schedule until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Circulating immune cell populations were measured over time by flow cytometry. Results: Patients (pts) [n = 73, 26M/47F; median age, 64 (range, 26–84); # prior therapies, 3 (1–11); prior GEM, 60%] received FF-10832 on Day 1 and 15 Q28 days (1.2–30 mg/m2), Day 1 and 8 Q21 days (12–23 mg/m2), or Day 1 only Q28 or 21 days (30–55 mg/m2); median # cycles = 2 (1–14) & time on study = 8.3 (4–60) weeks. Common drug-related adverse events were Grade (Gr) ≤2 rash (22%), nausea (22%, 1 Gr 3), and pyrexia (21%, 2 Gr 3). Dose-limiting Gr ≥3 cellulitis/skin ulcers were observed at ≥23 mg/m2 with twice per cycle dosing and those regimens discontinued. Dose frequency was reduced to Day 1 only, which was well-tolerated without significant skin toxicity. Gr ≥3 thrombocytopenia and pneumonitis were observed at 55 mg/m2 Q21 days and the MTD confirmed at 40 (Q21) and 48 mg/m2 (Q28). Median OS = 25.3 (95%CI: 16–27.1) weeks and PFS = 9.6 (95%CI: 7.9–17.6) weeks. Three of 35 evaluable pts achieved a partial response (PR): one pt with gallbladder cancer who previously progressed on GEM achieved a 50%↓ by Cycle 13 at 40 mg/m2 Q28 days & maintains response on study at 60 weeks; two pts with pancreatic cancer had ≥30%↓: one adenocarcinoma after 2 cycles at 4.8 mg/m2 Days 1 & 15 Q28 days, and one acinar cell after 7 cycles at 40 mg/m2 Q28 days who remains on study. Stable disease (SD) was observed in 16 pts; 9 for ≥20 weeks. AUC increased in proportion to dose without accumulation. An extended plasma t1/2 (hrs) for released (39) & total GEM (26) with a free fraction < 1% of total GEM concentrations suggests continuous release in the TME. Pts with PR or SD had dose and time-related log decreases in Ki67+ regulatory T cells relative to total CD4+ cells with increases in anti-tumor CD8+ cells, suggesting a shift to a more immunocompetent environment. Conclusions: FF-10832 was well-tolerated in heavily pre-treated pts with solid tumors, with evidence of anti-tumor activity in pts who progressed on prior GEM. Prolonged, continuous exposure and enhancement of anti-tumor immunity may contribute to improved efficacy. Expansion is ongoing in biliary tract cancer pts treated at the RP2D/schedule of 40 mg/m2 Day 1 of a 21-day cycle. Clinical trial information: NCT03440450.

Abstract
3101 Background: FF-10850 (liposomal topotecan) was developed using a unique dihydrosphingomyelin-based carrier to enhance tumor drug delivery and retention, leading to improved efficacy and safety. Preclinical studies demonstrated superior anti-tumor activity with less myelosuppression compared to topotecan, with a pharmacokinetic (PK) profile supporting a twice-monthly dosing schedule. Methods: Accelerated titration followed by a 3+3 dose escalation design was used to determine the safety, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicities (DLT), PK, and recommended Phase 2 dose. FF-10850 was administered IV on Day 1 and 15 of a 28-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Results: Patients (pts) [n = 29; 4M/25F; median age, 64 (range, 37–79) and # prior therapies, 4 (range, 1–8)] received FF-10850 at doses of 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 and 5 mg/m2; median # of cycles, 2 (range, 1–11). FF-10850 was well-tolerated at doses up to 2 mg/m2. Common drug-related adverse events (AEs) included anemia (83%, 51% Gr≥3), thrombocytopenia (62%, 35% Gr≥3), neutropenia (59%, 45% Gr≥3), nausea (38%), fatigue (24%, 7% Gr≥3), alopecia (24%), and hypokalemia (17%, 3% Gr≥3). Dose-limiting Gr≥3 thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, anemia, and fatigue were observed at doses ≥2.5 mg/m2. Eight pts required dose reductions due to AEs. The median time on study was 8.3 (1.6–45) weeks, with a median PFS of 9.4 weeks and median OS at least 26 weeks. Of 24 pts evaluable for response, two achieved a partial response (PR). One pt with ovarian cancer treated at 3.5 mg/m2 achieved a complete response in target lesions by Cycle 2 with stable non-target lesions, and maintained response for > 30 weeks (8 cycles) before progressing; dose was reduced in this pt to 2.6 mg/m2 at Cycle 2 due to Gr 4 thrombocytopenia. Another pt with refractory metastatic Merkel cell carcinoma tolerated therapy well at 2 mg/m2 and achieved a 48% reduction in target lesions that was maintained for > 30 weeks (8 cycles). Stable disease was observed in an additional 9 pts for ≥10 weeks (5 ovarian, 2 uterine and 2 cervical); five who maintained disease control for ≥24-45 weeks including one (ovarian) who had previously progressed on topotecan. An extended plasma t1/2 for topotecan of 25-30 hours was observed with no apparent dose-dependency or accumulation; < 1% of circulating topotecan was in the free (released) form. Conclusions: FF-10850 was well-tolerated up to 2 mg/m2 with anti-tumor activity demonstrated in heavily pre-treated pts with solid tumors including ovarian cancer, and an improved PK profile allowing less frequent dosing compared to topotecan. Expansion is ongoing in pts with ovarian and Merkel cell carcinoma at the RP2D of 2 mg/m2 IV on Day 1 & 15 of a 28-day cycle. Clinical trial information: NCT04047251.

Abstract
7008 Background: FF-10101-01 is a selective and irreversible FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) inhibitor with potent in vitro activity against FLT3-mutated AML. FF-10101-01 is highly active against FLT3 internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutations associated with high relapse and low survival/remission rates, as well as resistance-conferring D835 and F691 tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) and non-canonical FLT3 activating mutations. Here we report on a Phase 1 dose escalation trial examining the safety, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of FF-10101-01 in patients (pts) with relapsed/refractory primary or secondary AML. Methods: To determine the recommended Phase 2 dose, pts with or without a FLT3 mutation received FF-10101-01 orally once (QD) or twice (BID) daily until unacceptable toxicity was observed or pts had no further clinical benefit (1 cycle = 28 days). Composite complete remission (CRc) and partial remission (PR) rates were assessed. Inhibition of FLT3 phosphorylation was evaluated using a plasma inhibitory activity assay and was correlated with associated FF-10101-01 exposure. Results: Fifty-two pts [median age 61 (range, 21-84); 52% female; FLT3: ITD [22 (42%)], TKD [5 (10%)], ITD+TKD [1 (2%)], Wt [24 (46%)] received continuous dosing of FF-10101-01 at 10 - 225 mg QD or 50 - 100 mg BID. Median number of prior therapies was 3 (range, 0-6) and the majority [23/28 (82%)] of pts with known FLT3 mutations had received prior FLT3 inhibitors. The median duration on study was 5.7 (range, 0.1-36) weeks. FF-10101-01 was generally well-tolerated up to total daily doses of 150 mg. The most common treatment related adverse events included nausea [n = 18 (35%)] diarrhea [14 (27%), 2 Grade (Gr) 3/4], elevations in creatine kinase [CK; 14 (27%), 4 Gr 3/4], vomiting [10 (19%)] and increased AST [10 (19%), 2 Gr 3]. Grade 3/4 differentiation syndrome (n = 4, 8%) was observed at 75 - 150 mg/day. Dose-limiting cardiac toxicity (heart failure with reduced ejection fraction; Gr 3 increased troponin/CK) was observed at total daily doses ≥200 mg. The CRc rate was 13% (4/30 pts evaluable for response): 1 CR at 75 mg BID (FLT3-ITD); 1 CRp at 100 mg BID (Wt-FLT3); and 2 CRi’s at 50 mg BID, one that previously progressed on gilteritinib. The median time to overall response was ̃13.3 weeks. Four pts achieved a PR (≥50% decrease in BM blasts to 5 - 25% abnormal cells) at total daily doses of 50 - 150 mg; 2 had ITD mutations, and all had received prior FLT3 kinase inhibitors. At ≥75 mg BID, trough plasma concentrations were > 90 ng/ml and associated with > 90% p-FLT3 inhibition maintained over the dosing interval. Conclusions: The FF-10101-01 FLT3 inhibitor has shown activity in pts with refractory/relapsed AML, including those with activating FLT3-ITD mutations resistant to gilteritinib and other FLT3 kinase inhibitors. Doses of 50-75 mg BID were well tolerated and resulted in sustained FLT3 inhibition. Clinical trial information: NCT03194685.

Abstract
78 Background: Overexpression of the cell-cell adhesion protein P-cadherin has been associated with a more aggressive cancer cell phenotype, cancer stem cell properties, tumor invasion and metastasis. We determined the safety and recommended Phase II dose of the yttrium-labeled P-cadherin-targeted 90Y-FF-21101 monoclonal antibody (mAb) in patients (pts) with advanced tumors, and focused our expansion study in advanced colorectal (CRC) and pancreatic-biliary cancers (non-CRC tumors). We report the safety, efficacy, and correlative pharmacokinetics (PK)/pharmacodynamics (PD) in this cohort. Methods: Pts enrolled must have progressed on all standard therapies. 25 mCi/m2 (8 mCi/mg mAb) 90Y-FF-21101 was administered intravenously every 12 weeks (wks) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Disease response was assessed based on RECIST v1.1 every 8 wks (1 cycle = 28 days). Serum mAb PK, existence of anti-drug antibodies (ADA) and tumor P-cadherin expression were also evaluated. Results: 31 pts [mean age 63 (range, 39-89); 14F/17M; median number of prior therapies, 3 (range, 1-11)] with CRC (18) and non-CRC tumors [pancreatic (8), cholangiocarcinoma (3), duodenal (2)] received a median of 1 (range, 1-2) dose of 90Y-FF-21101. Median duration on study was 8.1 (3.9 – 27) wks (CRC) and 8 (1.1-17.1) wks (pancreatic-biliary). Myelosuppression was the most common treatment-related adverse event [thrombocytopenia (87%; Grade (Gr) 3/4 in 45%), lymphopenia (74%; Gr 3/4 in 61%), anemia (52%; Gr 3/4 in 13%), leukopenia (32%; Gr 3/4 in 16%)], in addition to fatigue (68%, 1 Gr 3) and nausea (39%, 1 Gr 3). Three pts required dose reduction to 20 mCi/m2 with subsequent infusion after Gr 3/4 thrombocytopenia [(pancreatic (2), CRC (1)]. The clinical benefit rate in pts with CRC based on stable disease (SD) for ≥8 wks is 43.8% (7/16 pts), with a median PFS of 8.1 wks and OS of 27 wks [median PFS, 7.9 wks; OS, 17.1 wks in non-CRC]. Longer-term SD was maintained in 2 pts with CRC for 17-24 wks; one continues on treatment. Enrollment is ongoing in the non-CRC cohort. FF-21101 has a mean t1/2 of approximately 65 hours, and post-treatment ADA titers have been observed in < 5% of pts. Tumor P-cadherin expression analysis by IHC demonstrated H-scores > 150 in 88% (14/16) of CRC pts, 75% (9/12) for non-CRC; 2 CRC pts with SD ≥17 wks had H-scores ≥190. Conclusions: 90Y-FF-21101 administered every 12 wks demonstrated expected toxicities and has been generally well-tolerated, with preliminary evidence of benefit demonstrated in heavily pre-treated pts with advanced CRC. The optimal dose and schedule for this radioimmunotherapeutic will continue to be explored, along with pre-treatment P-cadherin expression as a predictive biomarker for disease response. Clinical trial information: NCT02454010.

Abstract
PURPOSE 90Y-FF-21101 is an Yttrium-90-conjugated, chimeric mAb that is highly specific for binding to human placental (P)-cadherin, a cell-to-cell adhesion molecule overexpressed and associated with cancer invasion and metastatic dissemination in many cancer types. We report the clinical activity of 90Y-FF-21101 in a first-in-human phase I study in patients with advanced solid tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS The safety and efficacy of 90Y-FF-21101 were evaluated in a phase I 3+3 dose-escalation study in patients with advanced solid tumors (n = 15) over a dose range of 5-25 mCi/m2. Dosimetry using 111In-FF-21101 was performed 1 week prior to assess radiation doses to critical organs. Patients who demonstrated clinical benefit received repeated 90Y-FF-21101 administration every 4 months. RESULTS 111In-FF-21101 uptake was observed primarily in the spleen, kidneys, testes, lungs, and liver, with tumor uptake observed in the majority of patients. Organ dose estimates for all patients were below applicable limits. P-cadherin expression H-scores ranged from 0 to 242 with 40% of samples exhibiting scores ≥100. FF-21101 protein pharmacokinetics were linear with increasing antibody dose, and the mean half-life was 69.7 (±12.1) hours. Radioactivity clearance paralleled antibody clearance. A complete clinical response was observed in a patient with clear cell ovarian carcinoma, correlating with a high tumor P-cadherin expression. Stable disease was observed in a variety of other tumor types, without dose-limiting toxicity. CONCLUSIONS The favorable safety profile and initial antitumor activity observed for 90Y-FF-21101 warrant further evaluation of this radioimmunotherapeutic (RIT) approach and provide initial clinical data supporting P-cadherin as a potential target for cancer treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE 90Y-FF-21101 is an Yttrium-90-conjugated, chimeric mAb that is highly specific for binding to human placental (P)-cadherin, a cell-to-cell adhesion molecule overexpressed and associated with cancer invasion and metastatic dissemination in many cancer types. We report the clinical activity of 90Y-FF-21101 in a first-in-human phase I study in patients with advanced solid tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS The safety and efficacy of 90Y-FF-21101 were evaluated in a phase I 3+3 dose-escalation study in patients with advanced solid tumors (n = 15) over a dose range of 5-25 mCi/m2. Dosimetry using 111In-FF-21101 was performed 1 week prior to assess radiation doses to critical organs. Patients who demonstrated clinical benefit received repeated 90Y-FF-21101 administration every 4 months. RESULTS 111In-FF-21101 uptake was observed primarily in the spleen, kidneys, testes, lungs, and liver, with tumor uptake observed in the majority of patients. Organ dose estimates for all patients were below applicable limits. P-cadherin expression H-scores ranged from 0 to 242 with 40% of samples exhibiting scores ≥100.

Abstract
3008 Background: FF10502 is a synthetic pyrimidine nucleoside similar to gemcitabine (gem) with a sulfur in the pentose ring. FF10502 is a more potent inhibitor of DNA polymerase Beta than gem with activity in gem resistant patient (pt) derived xenograft models. FF10502 is avidly taken up into DNA and has greater activity against quiescent cells than gem. Methods: Pts > 18 years old with advanced disease who had progressed on standard of care were enrolled into 9 dose levels to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) and subsequently into two expansion cohorts: biliary or solid tumors (ST). FF10502 at doses of 8 to 135 mg/m2 was administered iv on days 1, 8, 15 of a 28-day cycle until progressive disease or toxicity. PK/PD evaluations were performed on all pts. Response was assessed by RECIST 1.1. Results: 76 pts were treated; 35 pts in dose escalation, including 7 cholangiocarcinoma pts. MTD was 90 mg/m2. DLTs included 2 pts with hypotension at 135mg/m2 (G3 and G4) and 1 pt each with G3 fatigue and G2 rash at 100mg/m2. In expansion, 19 cholangiocarcinoma, 3 gallbladder and 19 other pts (13 pancreatic, 2 urothelial, and 1 each ovarian, prostate, NSCLC, SCCHN each) were treated. 1 pt with prior rituximab for ITP developed PML. G3 treatment-related low platelets occurred in 3 pts at 90mg/m2 after cycle 1. There were 5 partial responses (PRs), including 4 pts who had progressed on prior gemcitabine: 3 of 26 pts with cholangiocarcinoma, 1 urothelial carcinoma and 1 chondroblastic osteosarcoma. 7 cholangiocarcinoma pts stayed on therapy for ≥6 months. FF10502 incorporation intoperipheral blood cellular DNA was seen, andbiomarkeranalysisdata to identify pts with higher potential for clinical response will be presented. Conclusions: FF10502 is well tolerated in pts with advanced cancers refractory to standard therapies. Early signals of efficacy warranting further exploration were seen in heavily pretreated cholangiocarcinoma pts (median: 4 prior therapies). Patient selection based on differential effects of FF10502 on DNA polymerases will be explored. Clinical trial information: NCT02661542.

Abstract
TPS3163 Background: FF-10832 (832) is a liposomal formulation of gemcitabine (GEM) that demonstrates a prolonged half-life and preferential uptake in tumor vs normal tissues and marrow in pre-clinical models. Macrophage uptake has been shown in the tumor microenvironment (TME), with subsequent GEM release in tumor cells. This relative selectivity and anti-tumor immunological changes observed in the TME may lead to decreased toxicity and increased efficacy compared to GEM. Ferumoxytol (FMX) may be a surrogate for nanoparticle penetration into tissue and is being examined as a potential correlate for activity. Methods: This ongoing Phase 1, 3+3 dose-escalation study of 832 will determine the safety profile, maximum tolerated dose, dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) and recommended Phase 2 dose, and will be followed by expansion. Enrollment of up to 60 patients (pts) with advanced solid tumors is planned. Pre-treatment (tx) FMX MRI scans are performed, followed by 832 administration on Days 1 &15 of each 28-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. In addition to standard biomarker and imaging evaluations, change in macrophage polarity, myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) and regulatory T cell populations are being investigatedin peripheral blood and tumor tissue. Clinical trial information: NCT03440450.

Abstract
Background Oliceridine (TRV130), a novel μ-receptor G-protein pathway selective (μ-GPS) modulator, was designed to improve the therapeutic window of conventional opioids by activating G-protein signaling while causing low β-arrestin recruitment to the μ receptor. This randomized, double-blind, patient-controlled analgesia Phase IIb study was conducted to investigate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of oliceridine compared with morphine and placebo in patients with moderate to severe pain following abdominoplasty (NCT02335294; oliceridine is an investigational agent not yet approved by the US Food and Drug Administration). Methods Patients were randomized to receive postoperative regimens of intravenous oliceridine (loading/patient-controlled demand doses [mg/mg]: 1.5/0.10 [regimen A]; 1.5/0.35 [regimen B]), morphine (4.0/1.0), or placebo with treatment initiated within 4 hours of surgery and continued as needed for 24 hours. Results Two hundred patients were treated (n=39, n=39, n=83, and n=39 in the oliceridine regimen A, oliceridine regimen B, morphine, and placebo groups, respectively). Patients were predominantly female (n=198 [99%]) and had a mean age of 38.2 years, weight of 71.2 kg, and baseline pain score of 7.7 (on 11-point numeric pain rating scale). Patients receiving the oliceridine regimens had reductions in average pain scores (model-based change in time-weighted average versus placebo over 24 hours) of 2.3 and 2.1 points, respectively (P=0.0001 and P=0.0005 versus placebo); patients receiving morphine had a similar reduction (2.1 points; P<0.0001 versus placebo). A lower prevalence of adverse events (AEs) related to nausea, vomiting, and respiratory function was observed with the oliceridine regimens than with morphine (P<0.05). Other AEs with oliceridine were generally dose-related and similar in nature to those observed with conventional opioids; no serious AEs were reported with oliceridine. Conclusion These results suggest that oliceridine may provide effective, rapid analgesia in patients with moderate to severe postoperative pain, with an acceptable safety/tolerability profile and potentially wider therapeutic window than morphine.

Abstract
TRV130 is a G protein-biased ligand at the µ-opioid receptor. In preclinical studies it was potently analgesic while causing less respiratory depression and gastrointestinal dysfunction than morphine, suggesting unique benefits in acute pain management. A first-in-human study was conducted with ascending doses of TRV130 to explore its tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics in healthy volunteers. TRV130 was well-tolerated over the dose range 0.15 to 7 mg administered intravenously over 1 hour. TRV130 geometric mean exposure and Cmax were dose-linear, with AUC0-inf of 2.52 to 205.97 ng h/mL and Cmax of 1.04 to 102.36 ng/mL across the dose range tested, with half-life of 1.6-2.7 hours. A 1.5 mg dose of TRV130 was also well-tolerated when administered as 30, 15, 5, and 1 minute infusions. TRV130 pharmacokinetics were modestly affected by CYP2D6 phenotype: clearance was reduced by 53% in CYP2D6 poor metabolizers.TRV130 caused dose- and exposure-related pupil constriction, confirming central compartment µ-opioid receptor engagement. Marked pupil constriction was noted at 2.2, 4, and 7 mg doses. Nausea and vomiting observed at the 7 mg dose limited further dose escalation. These findings suggest that TRV130 may have a broad margin between doses causing µ-opioid receptor-mediated pharmacology and doses causing µ-opioid receptor-mediated intolerance.

Abstract
TRV027 is a novel β-arrestin biased peptide ligand of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R). The compound antagonizes G protein coupling while simultaneously stimulating β-arrestin-mediated signaling. In preclinical studies, TRV027 reversibly reduced blood pressure while preserving renal function in a dog tachypaced heart failure model and stimulating cardiomyocyte contractility in vitro. This profile suggests that TRV027 may have unique benefits in acute heart failure, a condition associated with renin-angiotensin system activation. A first-time-in-human study was conducted with ascending doses of TRV027 to explore its tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in healthy volunteers. Subjects' salt intake was restricted to stimulate RAS activation. In this study TRV027 was safe and well tolerated with a short-half-life (ranging between 2.4 and 13.2 minutes) and dose-proportional increases in systemic exposure. Consistent with the pre-clinical findings, TRV027 reduced blood pressure to a greater degree in subjects with RAS activation, measured as elevated plasma renin activity, than in those with normal PRA levels. This study in sodium-restricted healthy subjects suggests that TRV027 will successfully target a core mechanism of acute heart failure pathophysiology. Further clinical studies with TRV027 in patients with heart failure are underway.

Abstract
Pruritus is a common complaint among end stage renal disease patients and has been associated with poor outcome. We characterized this problem at our outpatient hemodialysis unit. Seventy patients were surveyed over a two-day period. A visual analog scale was used to evaluate the intensity of itching. Location of itching and temporal relationship to dialysis was assessed by questionnaire. Laboratory parameters were evaluated to differentiate between those who itched and those who did not itch. Seventy percent of patients reported pruritus either during and/or between hemodialysis sessions. Itch intensity ranged from mild to severe. Forty-five percent of patients itched in three or more areas with the back and legs most commonly reported. Laboratory parameters were unable to differentiate between patients who itched and those who did not itch. Itching remains a common problem in hemodialysis patients. New treatments for patients resistant to standard therapies are needed.

Abstract
It is commonly believed that religion has no influence on medication compliance. We present a case in which belief in faith healing led to discontinuation of immunosuppressive medications after renal transplantation. Conflict occurs when patients believe they are healed but experience continued illness. Religious and spiritual beliefs should be assessed pre- and post-transplant, and efforts made to encourage medication compliance.

Abstract
The combination of multiple medical problems requiring complex drug therapy with rapidly changing organ functions that lead to pharmacokinetic alterations makes drug regimen design in the intensive care unit challenging. Acute renal failure leads to even greater physiologic disturbances requiring additional pharmacologic, nutritional, and dialytic support. A variety of renal replacement modalities, both intermittent and continuous, are used to manage the solute, volume, and acid-base derangements of patients with acute renal failure. Renal replacement therapies differ in their impact on drug dosing. The clinician must consider the impact of both disease and treatment if drug prescribing is to be optimal. Principles of solute removal are reviewed and concepts of drug regimen design are discussed. A practical approach to drug prescribing in this setting is described. Examples of dose adjustments for intermittent and continuous renal replacement therapies are provided.
