Embodiment 1
[0118] Example 1: Inferences and Correlations Between Adult and Pediatric Populations
[0119] Since no pediatric clinical PK data for brigatinib are currently available, the pediatric clinical PK of brigatinib was extrapolated from the adult PK using an allometric protocol. Key aspects of this analysis are summarized below.
[0120] The use of an allotropic ratio regimen is supported by knowledge of the mechanism of clearance of brigatinib and its corresponding ontogeny, suggesting that clearance in pediatric patients >1 year of age is well established. Therefore, simulations based on a previously developed population PK model have been performed to guide dose selection for a pediatric phase 1 dose-confirmation study taking into account dosing regimens against ALK+ NSCLC in adults. The proposed study is an open-label Phase 1 dose escalation in patients ≥2 years of age with measurable or evaluable ALK+ solid or CNS tumors or therapy-refractory ALCL for which no known curative...
Embodiment 2
[0131] Example 2: Pediatric Clinical Research
[0132] general strategy
[0133] Two clinical studies of brigatinib in patients 2 years of age and older with ALCL or IMT: (a) an open-label, Phase 1 / 2 dose-escalation and extension study (Study 1) and (b) Phase 2 randomized study (Study 2).
[0134] During the Phase 1 portion of Study 1, dose escalation of brigatinib monotherapy was performed according to any Rolling-6 design (partial A-1). Upon determination of RP2D for brigatinib monotherapy, open Phase 2 disease-specific expansion cohort and enroll patients with unresectable or relapsed ALK+IMT (Part B cohort B-1) or relapsed / refractory ALK Patients with +ALCL (part B cohort B-2). At this time, in newly diagnosed ALK+ALCL patients at high risk of relapse, dose escalation was also initiated using brigatinib in combination with the standard chemotherapy regimen (ALCL99 regimen) to determine the efficacy of brigatinib when used in combination with ALCL99 Neil's RP2D (Part A...
