Brief summary

This study is a multicenter, open-label, dose-escalation phase 1 study of intravenous (IV) LY2495655 in participants with advanced cancer.

Detailed description

This study will consist of the following parts: 1. Dose Escalation - Cohorts of at least 3 participants will be treated with increasing doses of LY2475655 until maximum tolerated dose (MTD) criteria are met in 1 of the 6 dose levels, or the 6th cohort is completed without meeting maximum tolerated dose criteria. 2. Dose Confirmation - Up to 10 more participants will be enrolled to the MTD dose level, or if it was not possible to define the MTD during dose escalation, all clinical and bioanalytical data will be reviewed to select the recommended Phase 2 dose and an up to 10 additional participants will be enrolled to this dose level.

Due to the small number per cohort (participants dropping out) calculations of the accumulation factor of exposure for repeated every-other-week dosing were based on simulated area under the drug concentration versus time curve within a dosing interval (AUCτ) instead of observed values. The 90-percentage confidence interval was calculated as the predictive interval.

Pharmacokinetics (PK): Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to 336 Hours (AUC[0-336]) of LY2495655

AUC(0-336h) is the area under the drug concentration versus time curve within a dosing interval (0-336 hours). Due to the small number per cohort (participants dropping out) calculations of the accumulation factor of exposure for repeated every-other-week dosing were based on simulated area under the drug concentration versus time curve within a dosing interval (AUCτ) instead of observed values. The 90-percentage confidence interval was calculated as the predictive interval.

Time frame: Cycle 1 and Cycle 4 Days 1 (pre-dose, end of infusion, 2hr, 6hr, 10-12hr after the infusion ends) and Day 2, 3, 5, 8

Population: All participants who received at least one dose of study drug and had evaluable pharmacokinetic data. Confidence Interval calculated as predictive interval and summarized from simulated PK profiles in 1000 virtual participants for each dose using a population PK model for LY2495655.
