简要总结
Oral administration has many advantages above intravenously administrated drugs for patients. Up to now, oral administration of docetaxel as single agent has not been feasible due to low and variable bioavailability. This low systematic exposure to docetaxel can effectively be increased after co-administration of ritonavir. The department of pharmacy of the Slotervaart Hospital and Netherlands Cancer Institute developed a solid oral dosage form for docetaxel, ModraDoc001 10 mg capsules.
Two other novel dosage forms of docetaxel with improved pharmaceutical characteristics, have been developed: ModraDoc003 10 mg tablets and ModraDoc004 10/50 mg tablets. The systemic exposure after administration of those forms is now being investigated.
详细描述
The bioavailability of docetaxel is limited due to metabolising cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes, which are abundantly present in the gastrointestinal tract.
Inhibition of CYP3A4 enzymes with ritonavir (an anti-retroviral drug) has in previously conducted proof-of-concept and phase I trials, proven to enhance the bioavailability of oral docetaxel.
Oral administration of docetaxel has been investigated in five clinical trials, all initiated by the Netherlands Cancer Institute - Antoni van Leeuwenhoek Hospital (NKI-AVL). The department of pharmacy of the Slotervaart Hospital and Netherlands Cancer Institute developed a solid oral dosage form for docetaxel, ModraDoc001 10 mg capsules. This formulation has now been investigated in more than 40 patients in a first clinical study. The preliminary results with ModraDoc001 10mg are promising and a linearity between systemic exposure to docetaxel and the applied dose of ModraDoc001 10mg capsules is seen. In an attempt to further improve and prolong the systemic exposure we will explore a twice daily dosing schedule.
Two other novel dosage forms for docetaxel, ModraDoc003 10 mg tablets and ModraDoc004 10/50 mg tablets, were developed. Both are spray-dried solid dispersions of docetaxel pressed in tablets. The distinction between both is that ritonavir is included in the co-formulation of ModraDoc004 10/50 mg tablets (10 mg docetaxel and 50 mg ritonavir). Both dosage forms will be investigated in arm B to see whether these new formulations have comparable pharmacokinetic characteristics of docetaxel to the capsule formulation.
Arm A Arm A is a dose escalation study to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)of weekly bi-daily ModraDoc001 10 mg capsules. This study will be done with a classical dose escalation design. The starting dose will be 40 mg BID. This dose is based on a safety of weekly 80 mg single dose in the previously conducted study.

研究组 & 干预措施
ModraDoc001 10 mg capsules
The optimal dose weekly bi-daily oral docetaxel - ModraDoc001 10 mg in combination with ritonavir will be determined with a classical dose escalation design. Approximately 24 patients will be enrolled depending on required number of dose levels before MTD is reached.
干预措施: ModraDoc001 10mg capsules (Drug)
ModraDoc003 10mg tablets and ModraDoc004 10/50 mg
Both new oral dosage forms, ModraDoc003 10 mg tablets and ModraDoc004 10/50 mg tablets will be investigated to see whether these new formulations have comparable pharmacokinetic characteristics, in terms of systemic exposure to docetaxel, as ModraDoc001 10 mg capsule.

ModraDoc006 10 mg tablet
The optimal dose weekly bi-daily oral docetaxel - ModraDoc006 10 mg in combination with ritonavir will be determined with a classical dose escalation design. Approximately 24 patients will be enrolled depending on required number of dose levels before MTD is reached.

结局指标
主要结局
Number and percentage of Participants with Adverse Events
时间窗: AE will be collected during the study treatment and 30 days after discontinuation of the study treatment due to disease progression or unacceptable treatment related toxicity
The maximal tolerated dose (defined as the highest dose resulting in no more that 1/6 probability of causing a dose limiting toxicities defined in the protocol) of bi-daily ModraDoc001 10mg capsules with ritonavir will be assessed in Arm A. Weekly safety assessments for Arm A and Arm B: signs and symptoms/adverse events, physical examination, clinical laboratory tests (hematology, clinical chemistry and urinalysis), 12-lead ECG monitoring (Day 0, End of Th). The incidence of serious AEs (SAEs) and AE related to oral docetaxel and/or to ritonavir will be determined.
