      Background:
      Abemaciclib, a cell cycle inhibitor selective for CDK4/6, demonstrated acceptable safety and early clinical activity in metastatic NSCLC, given orally as monotherapy on a continuous schedule. Combinations of abemaciclib showed greater activity compared with monotherapy in KRAS-mutant NSCLC preclinical models. Primary aim of study NCT02079636 was safety/tolerability of combination therapy with abemaciclib; secondary aims included pharmacokinetics and antitumor activity.

      Methods:
      In this open-label 3+3 dose-escalation study with expansion cohorts, eligibility included stage IV NSCLC, measurable or nonmeasurable disease (RECISTv1.1), ECOG PS ≤1, and 1-3 prior therapies. Abemaciclib was combined with pemetrexed (Part A, nonsquamous, 500 mg/m[2] IV day 1), gemcitabine (Part B, 1250 mg/m[2] IV days 1 and 8), ramucirumab (Part C, 10 mg/kg IV day 1, or 8 or 10 mg/kg IV days 1 and 8) (Q21), or LY3023414 (dual PI3K-mTOR inhibitor) (Part D, 100 mg, 150 mg or 200 mg orally Q12H). In escalation, patients were dosed continuously until progression with abemaciclib at 100 mg (Part D), 150 mg or 200 mg orally Q12H.

      Results:
      As of February 27, 2015, 70 patients (Parts A-C) received ≥1 dose; 15 patients at 150 mg and 55 patients (including all 39 patients in expansion) at 200 mg Q12H abemaciclib. The MTD was established at 200 mg Q12H abemaciclib for Parts A-C. See Table 1 for treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Stable disease was observed in 13/23 patients in Part A; 7 unknown, 4/24 patients in Part B; 10 unknown, and 7/23 patients in Part C; 12 unknown. In Parts A-C, 18/70 (26%) patients started ≥4 cycles (Part A=9, Part B=3, Part C=6). Three confirmed PRs were observed: Part B, 1 patient with squamous histology (unknown mutation status), Part C, 1 patient with nonsquamous histology (KRAS mutation positive; EGFR mutation negative), and 1 patient with squamous histology (unknown mutation status). Updated analyses will be presented including Part D and longer term follow-up for Parts A-C through approximately June 2015. Table 1. TEAEs related to treatment (≥20% in ≥1 part)

      Conclusion:
      Abemaciclib combined with single-agents with acceptable toxicity. Safety findings observed in Parts A and B are consistent with AEs expected when combining myelosuppressive compounds with abemaciclib, resulting in an increased myelosuppressive effect. In Part C, safety findings are consistent with those of single-agents. Tumor responses were observed in Parts B and C.
