Clin Cancer Res: Ganetespib combined platinum chemotherapy to treat malignant thoracic mesothelioma.

Ganetespib is an efficient small molecule thermoshock protein 90 inhibitor with potential efficacy for malignant thoracic mesothelioma (MPM) through the activity of key survival pathfages and known synergies with anti-folic acid and platinum chemotherapy.
MESO-01 is a non-randomized, multi-center, dose-incremental IB phase trial designed to identify the maximum to-dosage (MTD) that Ganetespib can use in chemotherapy first treatment MPM patients.
drug use: Ganetespib: 100 mg/m2, 150 mg/m2 or 200 mg/m2, day 1 and 15 medication, 3 Monday course of treatment, in addition to cisplatin (75 mg/m2, day 1) or carp platinum.
incremental doses are based on a 3-plus-3 design (cisplatin) and an accelerated titring design (carptin).
end points include optimal response, progressive survival (PFS), and pharmaceutical genomics analysis.
recruited a total of 27 patients (16 in the cisplatin group and 11 in the carptin group), of which 3 patients experienced dose-limiting toxicity: level 3 nausea (cisplatin group 1 case, carp platinum group 1 person) and stage 2 infusion-related reactions (carp platinum group).
ganetespib has an MTD of 200 mg/m2.
14 patients (52%) received partial remission, and 13 (62%) of the 23 patients who under performed endothystic tissue analysis received partial remission.
the maximum to-dosage treatment, 10 out of 18 patients (56%) received partial remission, 15 (83%) received course control, and the medium PFS was 6.3 months.
patient's course of disease was controlled for more than 50 months.
the overall absence of hybrids is associated with a short period of time before progress (HR 1.12, 95% CI 1.02-1.24, P=0.018).
, Ganetespib and platinum chemotherapy combined to treat MPM patients with good safety.
should conduct larger randomized trials to further study such drugs.
