Cushings Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Treatment of Pituitary Cushing Disease With a Selective CDK Inhibitor, R-roscovitine
The investigators hypothesize that R-roscovitine will suppress pituitary corticotroph tumor ACTH production and normalize urinary free cortisol levels in patients with Cushing disease. To date, R-roscovitine has been evaluated in several Phase I and II studies and has shown early signs of anti-cancer activity in approximately 240 patients.
To date, R-roscovitine (seliciclib) has been evaluated in several Phase I and II studies and has shown early signs of anti-cancer activity in approximately 240 patients. Studies included a Phase I study in which single agent seliciclib was administered to patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and two Phase IIa studies in which seliciclib was administered in combination with gemcitabine and cisplatin as first-line treatment and with docetaxel as second-line treatment in NSCLC. Seliciclib was also evaluated in a Phase I study in patients with nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) with evidence of tumor shrinkage and concomitant reduction in copy counts of the EBV virus that is causally associated with the pathogenesis of NPC. Results from APPRAISE, a randomized discontinuation, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, Phase IIb study of oral seliciclib capsules as a monotherapy in heavily pretreated patients with NSCLC, demonstrated no difference between the seliciclib and placebo arms in progression free survival but a substantial increase in overall survival was observed (388 versus 218 days respectively (Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals press release Dec 21, 2010). Here, the investigators propose an exploratory, proof of concept clinical trial to determine if seliciclib can safely normalize urinary free cortisol levels by reducing pituitary corticotroph tumor ACTH production in patients with Cushing disease. ;
