`
`Abstract:
`
`MTA (LY 231514) is a new antifol that inhibits multiple folate-dependent enzymes, including thymidylate synthase,
`dihydrofolate reductase, and glycinamide ribonucleotide formyl transferase. Initial phase I trials demonstrated major
`antitumor responses when MTA was given as a 10 min I.V. infusion, however, myelosuppression precluded dose
`escalation above 500-600 mg/m2. Since preclinical studies indicated that folic acid supplementation increases the
`eherapeutic index of MTA, the feasibility of administering folic acid 5 mg daily for 5 days starting 2 days before MTA
`in minimally- and heavily-pretreated pts was evaluated to determine if folic acid supplementation ameliorates the toxif
`effects of MTA, permitting significant dose-escalation above the recommended phase II dose of MTA alone. Thus far,
`21 pts with solid cancers have received 55 courses at the following dose levels: 600, 700, and 800 mg/m2. Drug-related
`toxicities have included neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia, which have been more severe in heavily-
`pretreated pts. Other toxicities (grade 1-2) include rash, somnolence, fatigue, leg edema, and diminished renal function
`manifested by a decrease in creatinine clearance. One pt taking a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent experienced
`severe toxicities at the 800 mg/m2 dose, which resolved after administration of leucovorin and thymidine. One partial
`response in a pt with metastatic colon cancer has been observed. PK and vitamin (folic acid) metabolite profiles were
`done during cycles 1 and 3 at 600 to 800 mg/m2. To date, serum folic acid levels do not appear to be related to toxicity,
`but homocysteine was significantly elevated in the pt with severe toxicities at the 800 mg/m2 dose. Thus far, heavily-
`and minimally-pretreated patients have tolerated MTA at 600 and 800 mg/m2 and accrual continues at 700 and 900

`
`
`mg/m2, respectively. These results indicate that folic acid supplementation appears to permit MTA dose escalation.
