A Pharmacokinetics/Dynamics Ib Study of F-627 in Women With Breast Cancer Receiving Myelotoxic Chemotherapy

A Phase Ib Study to Assess the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of F-627 as Prophylaxis Therapy to TAC Chemotherapy in Women With Breast Cancer

This study was a phase Ib study of the safety and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of F-627 once per cycle as prophylaxis therapy to chemotherapy in women with breast cancer.

The patients received the intravenous administration of the chemotherapy (docetaxol, doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide, 75 mg/m2, 50 mg/m2 and 500 mg/m2 respectively) on Day 1 and the subcutaneous injection of F-627 at 240 µg/kg and 320 µg/kg on Day 2 (approximately 24 hours after chemotherapy) each cycle for up to 6 cycles.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Neutropenia
• Intervention / Treatment: Biological: F-627 240 μg/kg; Biological: F-627 320 μg/kg

Detailed Description

This study was a phase Ib study of the safety and pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics of F-627 once per cycle as prophylaxis therapy to chemotherapy in women with breast cancer.

This study was conducted at two centers in China and enrolled 15 patients with breast cancer receiving TAC chemotherapy (docetaxel, doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide). The patients received the intravenous administration of the chemotherapy (docetaxol, doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide, 75 mg/m2, 50 mg/m2 and 500 mg/m2 respectively) on Day 1 and the subcutaneous injection of F-627 at 240 µg/kg and 320 µg/kg on Day 2 (approximately 24 hours after chemotherapy) each cycle for up to 6 cycles. Patients will remain on study drug dose for each of the following 6 chemotherapy cycles.

Patients will remain on study drug dose for each of the following 6 chemotherapy cycles. The blood sampling will be collected for F-627 serum concentration analysis in cycle of 1 and 3.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: F-627 240 µg/kg; F-627 at the dose of 240 mcg/kg administered by s.c. injection on Day 2 of each cycle for up to 6 cycles. Chemotherapy (docetaxol, doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide) administered by intravenous injection on Day 1 of each cycle for up to 6 cycles.	Biological: F-627 240 μg/kg; F-627 at 240 μg/kg dose enrolling 6 patients with breast cancer receiving adjuvant chemotherapy. Subjects will receive a corresponding dose of F-627 by subcutaneous injection 24 hours after each cycle（21 days） of chemotherapy drug administration. Blood samples are then collected at multiple time points during follow-up visits to evaluate the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and safety of the drug. Dose will remain unchanged throughout the treatment period. Eligible subjects will be enrolled sequentially into the 240 μg/kg arm. And the arm should contain 6 evaluable subjects.; Other Names: rh G-CSF Fc Fusion Protein
