`
`Over the 14 years surveyed, an average of 569 pa-
`tients were entered on phase I trials each year. The
`drugs studied each year are detailed in Table 1. The
`average number of different drugs studied per year
`was 13 (range 2-26).
`The number of responses, as well as the number
`of patients with stable disease, recorded each year
`are listed in Table 2. Overall, for the 7,960 patients
`treated, there were 75 complete responses and 432
`partial responses for an overall objective response
`rate of 6.3%. If the 228 marginal responses are in-
`cluded, the overall response rate is 9.8%. As noted
`in Table 2, the yearly percent complete plus partial
`response ranged from 2% to 31%. Table 3 details
`the duration of the responses. The duration for
`complete and partial responses was quite respecta-
`ble in these patients with advanced disease.
`
`116
`
`which included trials with 113 different agents.
`
`The following parameters were collected for each
`study:
`(1) number of patients entered into each
`study; (2) the maximum tolerated dose; (3) the dose
`recommended for phase II studies; (4) the number
`of complete, partial, and marginal responses and
`the number of patients with stable disease;
`(5)
`the dose of drug at which the responses for each
`patient occurred; (6) the type of tumor the respond-
`ing patients had; and (7) the duration of the re-
`sponses.
`
`As definitions of response for solid tumor pa-
`tients, we utilized standard Southwest Oncology
`
`Group criteria which included:
`1. Complete remission, defined as disappearance
`of all clinical evidence of active tumor for at least
`
`four weeks. The patient must be free of any
`symptoms related to the malignancy.
`2. Partial remission, defined as 50% or greater
`
`decrease in the sum of the products of the dia-
`meters of the measured lesions for at least three
`
`months. No simultaneous increase in size or ap-
`
`pearance of new lesions may occur.
`3. Stable disease, defined as steady state or with a
`decrease in disease of <25%, or an increase in
`
`disease that is less than progression. There may
`
`be no appearance of new lesions and no worsen-
`ing of symptoms. This state must be maintained
`for a minimum of three months.
`
`4. Progression, defined as unequivocal increase of
`at least 50% in the size of any measurable lesion,
`
`the appearance of new lesions, uncontrolled
`hypercalcemia or increasing skeletal
`involve-
`ment as manifested by an increasing number of
`lytic lesions or lesions on bone scan.
`5. A final category which is included in standard
`Southwest Oncology Group Criteria is the cate-
`gory of a marginal response. Marginal response
`is defined as any decrease in tumor size of from
`25-49% in the sum of the products of the dia-
`meters of the measured lesions for at least three
`
`months. This is not usually utilized as any mean-
`ingful measurement of response and is often in-
`cluded in the definitions of stable disease. How-
`
`ever, many phase I investigators reporting their
`data have used this category so the information
`was collected.

`Overview
`
`A total of 7,960 patients were treated in the 228
`phase I studies examined. Figure 1 details the num-
`ber of patients entered on phase I trials each year.
`A maximum of 1,216 were reported on phase I trials
`in 1980. This number has decreased since then.

`a diversity in histologic types of tumors which
`responded in these studies.
`The next question was whether or not a response
`in phase I trials was of prognostic significance for
`the drug to be successful (i.e., make it to the mar-
`ket). Figure 2 details the number of responses in
`phase I trials for drugs that made it to the market
`(or will be on the market within the next year) ver-
`sus those drugs which will definitely not be market-
`ed versus those in which the marketing strategy is
`not yet clear (i.e., still under active investigation).
`As noted in Fig. 2, the range of number of re-
`sponses in phase I trials is quite great for both
`marketed and non-marketed drugs. The median
`number of responses is higher (six total responses)

`ginal) were noted in the category of 80-120% of
`the recommended dose for phase II trials. How-

`mended phase II dose, the better the chances of
`
`or marginal
`partial,
`complete,
`a
`achieving
`response. Patients with stable disease received less
`
`of a dose (on the median).
`Figure 4 examines the data in another way. In
`that figure, the distribution of response, according
`to percent of recommended phase 11 doses is plotted
`for each of the response and stable disease cate-
`
`for those compounds which eventually were mar-
`keted versus those that were not marketed (one to-
`tal response). To date, there has not been one com-
`pound which has made it to market which did not
`have at least one response in phase I trials.
`Another major question in phase I
`trials is
`whether a patient must receive a dose near the dose
`
`recommended for phase II trials with the agent in
`order to have a response. Figure 3 details the per-
`cent of the recommended phase II dose at which the
`responses in phase I
`trials occurred. From this
`figure, it is quite clear that there is considerable var-
`iation in the percent of the recommended dose at
`
`which responses or stable disease occur. Complete
`and partial responses were noted even at doses as
`low as 3-5 "70 of the recommended dose. It is of in-
`
`terest that when the medians are examined, it does
`appear that the closer one is to 100% of the recom-
`
`Discussion
`
`The first finding of this study is that in the 228
`phase I studies conducted in 7,960 patients over the
`
`the overall percent of objective
`14 year-period,
`responses was 6% (1% complete response and 5%
`
`partial response). The 6% response is higher than
`the 2% response rate noted by Estey and colleagues
`[1] when they examined the response rate in a
`
`smaller number of patients (1,248) in phase I clini-
`cal trials. If we examine the response rate by year,
`there is no indication that the response rate is im-

`the NCI changes its screen [2,3]. In addition, with
`the very low response rates in phase I trials, it ap-
`pears that there may be room for the addition of a
`screening method for the patients. Perhaps as the
`methodology for in vitro sensitivity testing becomes
`more refined, patients with tumors sensitive in vitro
`can be selected for entrance into phase I studies
`with an attendant improvement in response rate

`
`and early 1980’s, make it possible to speculate that
`
`drugs may not have been selected as carefully for
`phase I trials. Keeping track of this trend is indeed
`important as this information can provide input
`into the screening programs utilized by the National
`Cancer Institute. This is particularly important as

`studied, the response rate in phase I trials was 31%
`
`(Adriamycin was in phase I trials that year), while
`in 1983, the phase I trial response rate was only 5%.
`This trend, plus the large inflation in number of pa-
`tients entered into phase I trials in the late l970’s
`
`[4,5,6]. If nothing else, the present study will serve
`as an historical benchmark against which to assess
`
`changes in the drug screen or changes in the patient
`screen.
`
`The overall clinical response rate of 6% in the
`
`phase I studies is of course not very encouraging,
