PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the safety and tolerability of MS209, a potent inhibitor of P-glycoprotein, when given in combination with docetaxel and to determine whether MS209 affects docetaxel pharmacokinetics. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: Patients with advanced solid malignancies were eligible for this phase I trial. Docetaxel as 1-hour infusion was given alone during the first cycle. MS209 was introduced as of cycle 2 and given orally 30 minutes after docetaxel infusion. The dose escalation scheme followed a modified Fibonacci model with six steps (docetaxel, 60-100 mg/m2 and MS209, 300-1,200 mg per body). RESULTS: A total of 30 patients were treated at five dose levels. Dose-limiting toxicities were febrile neutropenia, infection, stomatitis, dysphagia, and fatigue. The maximum tolerated dose was reached at level 5 (docetaxel, 80-MS: 1,200). Pharmacokinetic analysis failed to show a strong pharmacokinetic interaction between the two compounds, but at the highest dose levels, there is a trend to an increase of docetaxel AUC when this agent is given in combination with MS209. CONCLUSION: MS209 can be given in combination with docetaxel, with limited effect on docetaxel toxicity or pharmacokinetics.
