Abstract
The phospatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) pathway is a crucial intracellular signaling pathway which is mutated or amplified in a wide variety of cancers including breast, gastric, ovarian, colorectal, prostate, glioblastoma and endometrial cancers. PI3K signaling plays an important role in cancer cell survival, angiogenesis and metastasis, making it a promising therapeutic target. There are several ongoing and completed clinical trials involving PI3K inhibitors (pan, isoform-specific and dual PI3K/mTOR) with the goal to find efficient PI3K inhibitors that could overcome resistance to current therapies. This review focuses on the current landscape of various PI3K inhibitors either as monotherapy or in combination therapies and the treatment outcomes involved in various phases of clinical trials in different cancer types. There is a discussion of the drug-related toxicities, challenges associated with these PI3K inhibitors and the adverse events leading to treatment failure. In addition, novel PI3K drugs that have potential to be translated in the clinic are highlighted.

1. Introduction
PI3K/AKT signaling is involved in important physiological and pathophysiological functions that drive tumor progression such as metabolism, cell growth, proliferation, angiogenesis and metastasis [1,2]. Pharmacological or genetic suppression of this signaling causes cancer cell death and regression of tumor growth. The PI3K pathway is activated via point mutation of the PIK3CA gene or inactivation of the phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) gene [3]. Activation of this pathway occurs in approximately 30–50% human cancers and results in resistance to various anti-cancer therapies [4,5].
PI3K proteins are classified into three main classes (I, II and III) based on the substrate specificities and structural characteristics. Class I PI3Ks are categorized into two subtypes (A and B) based on the mode of regulation. Class IA PI3Ks form dimers containing a regulatory (p85α, p85β, p55α, p55γ, p50α) and a catalytic (p110α, p110β, p110δ) subunit. Class I PI3Ks act downstream of both G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). In addition, these regulatory subunits play an important role in stabilization of the p110 catalytic subunits and in suppression of the basal lipid kinase activity [6]. Class IB PI3Ks which are activated downstream of GPCRs form heterodimers consisting of p110γ as catalytic subunit with other regulatory subunits such as p101, p87 or p84 [7,8]. This class consists of three isoforms (PI3K-C2α, PI3K-C2ß and PI3K-C2γ). These isoforms have a RAS-binding domain (RBD), a helical domain, and a catalytic domain but lack a regulatory domain [7]. The class III PI3Ks also known as vacuolar protein sorting 34 (VPS34) heterodimerize with membrane-associated VPS15 regulatory subunit. This VPS34-VPS15 complex is ubiquitously expressed in mammals regulating several functions such as phagocytosis, autophagy, endocytosis and intracellular trafficking [7,9]. Some reports have considered mTOR as class IV PI3K-related kinase whose catalytic domain is associated with ataxia-telangiectasia (ATM), fluorescence recovery after photo bleaching (FRAP) and transformation/transcription domain-associated protein (TRRAP) and FK506-binding protein 12 (FKBP12)/rapamycin (FRB)-binding domain and a C-terminal FAT domain (FATC). There are two Huntington elongation factor 3, PR65/A subunit of protein phosphatase 2A, TOR (HEAT) repeats in the N-terminal region which modulate the protein–protein interactions in mTOR signaling [10,11].
Small-molecule inhibitors targeting PI3K consist of pan, isoform-specific and dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitors. Wortmanin and LY294002 were the first-generation PI3K inhibitors that belong to the non-isoform-specific category [12,13,14]. Wortmanin with irreversible inhibition, lack of selectivity and adverse effects resulted in termination of its clinical trials [15]. Poor solubility, bioavailability and rapid degradation of LY294002 prevented its further biological evaluation and clinical studies [16]. To date, five PI3K inhibitors (Copanlisib, Idelalisib, Umbralisib, Duvelisib and Alpelisib) have been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This has encouraged clinicians and researchers to test other PI3K inhibitors in both preclinical and clinical settings with the goal to identify a potent PI3K inhibitor with significant clinical efficacy, low toxicities and optimum bioavailability. In this review, we discuss the challenges associated with successful development of PI3K inhibitors including the aberrant mutations/amplification of genes such as PI3K and/or PI3K-driven molecules, the role of these mutations and other molecules in PI3K-mediated drug sensitivity, and compensatory signaling mechanisms resulting in PI3K inhibitor resistance causing treatment failure in the clinic. In addition, we have summarized active, not-recruiting and completed trials along with detailed clinical outcomes for PI3K inhibitors in a wide variety of cancers along with the adverse events.
2. Signaling Molecules and Factors Contributing to PI3K Inhibitor Resistance
PI3K signaling is deregulated in a variety of cancers. There are several factors that ultimately result in resistance to PI3K inhibitors including (1) inactivation or loss of PTEN activity, (2) mutations and amplification of PI3K, (3) drug-related toxicities, (4) feedback upregulation leading to compensatory mechanisms, (5) non-coding RNA in regulating PI3K signaling, (6) enhanced insulin production upon PI3K inhibition, (7) selection of patient population in clinical trials and (8) miscellaneous resistance mechanisms, as summarized below.
2.1. Inactivation or Loss of PTEN Activity
PTEN is a well-characterized tumor suppressor which is a negative modulator of the PI3K pathway. PTEN regulates PI3K via dephosphorylating phosphatidylinositol-3, 4, 5-trisphosphate (PIP3). The loss of or gain in function is seen in several cancers including breast, brain and prostate [17,18]. Increased PI3K signaling and tumorigenesis is observed in PTEN knock-in mice with PTEN mutations [18]. Loss of PTEN lipid phosphatase activity causes the activation of AKT in PTEN-null cancers [18,19]. A study by Juric et al. indicates that loss of PTEN can lead to clinical resistance to a PI3K inhibitor, Alpelisib in breast cancer [20]. These studies indicate the possible role of PTEN in modulating response to PI3K inhibitors in different cancers.
2.2. Mutations and Amplification of PI3K
The p110α subunit of PIK3CA is frequently mutated and amplified (~30%) in a variety of cancers [21,22,23]. There are hotspot mutations such as PIK3CAE545K in exon 9 in the helical PI3K homology domain that suppresses inhibition of p110α by p85 regulatory subunit. Another mutation is PIK3CAH1047 present in the catalytic subunit in exon 20 which enhances the interaction of p110α with the lipid membrane [24,25]. E542K is another crucial PI3K mutation with significant oncogenic potential associated with elevated in vitro catalytic activity [26,27].The helical and kinase mutations in p110α domain induce oncogenic activity based on different interaction between the PI3K regulatory subunit, p85 with RAS-GTP. The oncogenic activity induced by helical domain mutations is independent of binding to p85 subunit. However, requires interaction with RAS-GTP. However, the kinase domain mutations are active without RAS-GTP binding but dependent on their interaction with p85. In addition, co-existence of both the domain mutations increases the p110 function and tumorigenic activity synergistically [27]. A recent study has shown that C2 domain deletions in PIK3CA activate PI3K signaling significantly and also enhance the sensitivity to PI3Kα inhibitors [28]. The deregulation of PI3K signaling leads to several oncogenic activities such as cancer cell proliferation, invasion, migration, glucose transport and angiogenesis that regulate tumor progression [23,24].
Genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) using PIK3CA mutations demonstrate important tumorigenic potential associated with PI3K signaling. For example, the PIK3CAH1047R knock-in mouse model promoted conditional activation of the PI3K pathway and induced breast tumorigenesis [29]. Another study indicated that PIK3CA H1047R mutation with PTEN deletion led to the development of ovarian adenocarcinoma and granulosa cell tumor in a mouse model [30]. Further, overexpression of wild-type catalytic subunits (p110ß, p110δ and p110γ) is known to induce an oncogenic phenotype [31]. The role of p110ß is well established in cancers including breast and prostate [32,33]. Although the mechanism of action of this subunit is not well known, some reports still indicate that it works via GPCR signaling [34]. E633K is a p110ß helical mutation first reported in HER2+ breast cancer [35,36]. PIK3CAD1067V is another recurrent somatic mutation in the p110β subunit which induced in vitro and in vivo cancer cell growth via the activated PI3K signaling pathway. Pharmacologic inhibition using a specific p110β inhibitor (TGX-221) inhibited growth in patient-derived renal cell carcinoma cells with endogenous PIK3CAD1067V and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant lung adenocarcinoma cells as well as in NIH-3T3 cells engineered to express this mutation. In addition, expression of this mutation is known to promote Erlotinib resistance in EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma cells [37]. PI3Kδ plays a crucial role in myeloid cell activities such as inflammation-driven cell infiltration, neutrophil oxidative burst, immune complex-mediated macrophage activation, mast cell maturation and degranulation [38,39]. It also plays an important role in inducing cancer cell proliferation and AKT activation in myeloid leukemia [40]. PI3Kδ point mutations have been identified in a panel of diffuse B-cell lymphomas [41]. It is known to regulate in vitro chemotactic migration in response to EGF and share similar biological function in breast cancer cells and macrophages [42].
PI3Kγ is expressed in immune cells of myeloid origin that regulates innate immunity in both cancer and inflammatory cells [39]. PI3Kγ regulates solid tumor neovascularization, contributes to chemotactic response and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in neutrophils [43,44]. All these studies indicate the key role of PI3K and PI3K isoform-mediated signaling along with site-specific driver mutations that leads to oncogenic transformation of cancer cells which could ultimately lead to drug resistance.
2.3. Drug-Related Toxicities Affect Sustained Target Suppression
One major hurdle in the development PI3K inhibitors is the inability to achieve optimal drug-target blockade in tumors due to drug-related toxicities in patients. Toxicities from small-molecule PI3K inhibitors depend on their PI3K isozyme specificity. For example, the adverse effects associated with PI3Kα inhibitors are mostly rash and hyperglycemia, and the side effects associated with δ subunits are mostly gastrointestinal, transaminitis and myelosuppression. The pan-PI3K inhibitors share common dose-dependent toxicities such as fatigue, diarrhea, rash and hyperglycemia. Dual PI3K inhibitors have a broader toxicity profile compared to isoform or pan-PI3K inhibitors. Isoform-specific PI3Kδ inhibitors have a better effect in B-cell malignancy compared to pan or dual PI3K inhibitors because of the toxicity profile [45]. Several studies have indicated that intermittent dosing schedules of PI3K drugs have a better safety profile over a continuous dosing pattern. A study by Hudson et al. showed that when administrated intermittently PI3Kα/δ inhibitor AZD8835 showed better anti-tumor efficacy in breast cancer xenograft models as a monotherapy and in combination with an ER inhibitor (Fulvestrant) and CDK4/6 inhibitor (Palbociclib) that suppressed AKT activation and induced cell death [46]. Another study demonstrated that intermittent administration of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor, GDC-0973 with a PI3K inhibitor (GDC-0941) triggered cell death and tumor growth inhibition [47]. However, dosing schedules, suboptimal dose selection and on-target toxicities of several PI3K inhibitors failed to cause the complete and sustained inhibition of PI3K signaling, challenging the efficacy of these PI3K inhibitors in the clinic.
2.4. Feedback Upregulation Leading to Compensatory Mechanism
Drug resistance associated with pharmacological inhibition of PI3K inhibitors is caused due to feedback upregulation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway involving RTKs, growth factors and downstream transcription factors. One such transcription factor is forkhead box (FOXO), which represses RTKs or other adaptors that activate the PI3K pathway, such as human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3), insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R), EGFR, fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) and insulin receptor (InsR) [48,49]. Therefore, inhibiting PI3K/AKT signaling suppresses the FOXO phosphorylation, causing FOXO-dependent repression of RTKs leading to derepression of molecules downstream of AKT such as S6K and growth factor receptor-bound protein 10 (GRB10), ultimately resulting in activation of multiple RTKs and partial maintenance of PIP3 [50]. Partial maintenance of PIP3 is also mediated by PI3K isoform p110ß in luminal breast cancer cells where PI3K is hyperactivated due to HER2-HER3 dimers [51]. Another study showed the key role of FOXO-mediated adaptive resistance in matrix-attached cancer cells in response to inhibition of PI3K/mTOR signaling [52]. Another FOXO-dependent adaptive response is via upregulation of Rictor, resulting in enhanced AKT activation in renal cancer cells [53].
Another transcription factor, signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) plays a crucial role in mediating resistance to PI3K inhibitors in vitro. A study by Britschgi et al. showed that STAT5 is activated by Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) that evoked a positive feedback loop to dampen the efficacy of PI3K/mTOR inhibition via secretion of interleukin-8 (IL-8) in several cell lines and primary breast tumors. The data also showed that pharmacological and genetic inhibition of JAK2 combined with PI3K/mTOR inhibition abrogated this feedback loop [54]. Treatment with the AKT inhibitor AZD5363 activates several RTKs, estrogen receptor 1 (ESR1) mRNA, and ERα-mediated transcription of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) and IGF2 ligands [55]. In another study, expression of ESR1 mRNA and ER-related proteins are increased upon PI3K inhibition using Alpelisib. These drug-related transcriptional alterations were abrogated via anti-ER drugs [56]. Treatment with Alpelisib in ER+ breast cancer cells or patients with primary tumors resulted in activation of ERα via lysine methyltransferase 2D (KMT2D)-dependent FOXA1-PBX1 complex [57]. All these data highlight the role of ERα-mediated feedback upregulation in response to PI3K inhibition that might result in drug insensitivity in PIK3CA-driven cancers.
2.5. Non-Coding RNA in Regulating PI3K Signaling
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are commonly employed for RNAs that do not encode proteins which are involved in cancer drug resistance [58]. These ncRNAs include siRNA, piRNA, miRNA and lncRNA. In general, ncRNAs function to regulate gene expression at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional level. Several lncRNAs are known to interact with PI3K to activate signaling [59]. For example, lncRNA CRNDE is overexpressed in several cancers to activate cell proliferation and growth via PI3K-dependent pathways [60,61,62]. lncRNA OIP5-AS1 is another ncRNA that activates PI3K signaling and cause Cisplatin resistance in osteosarcoma [63]. OIP5-AS1 loss causes miR-410 accumulation that facilitates cell cycle progression, proliferation and apoptosis inhibition by targeting Krüppel-Like Factor-10 (KLF10) via activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in multiple myeloma [64]. lncRNA CCAT1 regulates thyroid and squamous cancer cell migration via activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway [65,66]. lncRNA H19 inhibits melanoma cell migration and invasion via inactivating PI3K/AKT/NFĸB signaling [67]. lncRNA HOTAIR promotes Cisplatin resistance in gastric cancer by targeting miR-126/miR-34a through activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway [68,69]. It is also involved in multidrug resistance to Imatinib in a PI3K/AKT-dependent signaling in myeloid leukemia cells [70]. It also regulates cancer cell growth, metastasis and apoptosis via PI3K/AKT-dependent pathway in melanoma, adenocarcinoma and glioma [71,72,73]. lncRNA NEAT1 plays a key role in PI3K/AKT-mediated tumorigenesis in several cancer types [74,75]. HULC is another lncRNA that is involved in bladder cancer cell proliferation via regulation of ZIC2 and PI3K/AKT signaling [76]. It induces leukemia cell proliferation and suppresses angiogenesis in gliomas via an AKT-dependent pathway [77,78]. AB073614 and PTTG3P are known to promote cancer cell proliferation, migration and invasion via PI3K/AKT-dependent signaling in colorectal and hepatocellular carcinoma, respectively [79,80]. MALAT1 is another crucial lncRNA which is upregulated in several cancers and induces tumorigenic phenomenon via miRNA-mediated PI3K/AKT-dependent signaling [81,82,83,84,85]. lncRNA ATB induces bladder cancer cell proliferation, migration, and invasion via AKT/mTOR-mediated signaling [86]. lncRNA BC087858 induces acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs by activating PI3K/AKT and epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT)-dependent signaling in lung cancer [87].
Linc00659 and Linc00152 induce cancer cell growth and inhibit apoptosis in colorectal and lung cancer, respectively, via PI3K/AKT-mediated pathway activation [88,89]. In similar lines, Linc00462 and Linc01296 regulate different hallmarks in tumor progression via AKT signaling [90,91]. There are several other lncRNAs including UCA1, ecCEBPA, Ftx, RMEL3, lncARSR, BDLNR, ANRIL, ROR, MYD88, RNA-422 and PlncRNA-1 that are upregulated and mediate PI3K-dependent signaling in different cancers [92]. Other lncRNAs which are downregulated yet known to mediate tumorigenesis via PI3K/AKT-dependent signaling include linc003121 in thyroid cancer [93], RP4 in colorectal cancer [94], MEG3 in endometrial cancer [95], GAS5 in various cancers [96,97]. In summary, there is a long list of ncRNAs including those discussed above which are promising candidates to be targeted to overcome PI3K inhibitor resistance in clinic.
2.6. Enhanced Insulin Production upon PI3K Inhibition
The p110α subunit of PI3K is known to mediate cellular responses to insulin signaling in different diseases including cancer. Targeting this subunit via specific PI3K inhibitors inhibits the insulin-dependent signaling, which in turn promotes glycogen breakdown in liver and inhibits glucose uptake in skeletal muscle and adipose tissues, resulting in hyperglycemia. However, this effect is compensated via the insulin feedback pathway that activates PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling in tumor cells compromising the therapeutic response to PI3K inhibitors. It has been shown that use of dietary and pharmaceutical approaches can also target this insulin feedback, resulting in enhanced efficacy and reduced toxicities due to PI3K inhibitors [98]. Molinaro et al. have shown that insulin-mediated PI3K/AKT signaling is dependent on redundant PI3Kα/β activities and is mediated by RAS [99]. In another study in acute leukemia patients, the effects of PI3K/AKT/mTOR inhibitors and insulin varied among the patient subsets, and it was noted that the variations in insulin responsiveness are associated with differential susceptibility to metabolic targeting [100]. An increase in the plasma levels of insulin that is associated with hyperglycemia is also observed in patients treated with PI3K inhibitors and hence enhanced insulin level serves as a pharmacodynamics surrogate marker for such patients [101,102].
2.7. Selection of Patient Population in Clinical Trials
Selection of accurate patient population with active PIK3CA mutations determines the efficacy of PI3K inhibitors. For example, in a phase I study, the clinical benefit rate (CBR) to a PI3K inhibitor, Alpelisib was 44% in tumors with PIK3CA hotspot mutations versus 20% in those patients with WT PIK3CA [101]. In another study, patients with PIK3CA H1047R mutation had a better survival rate (36%) over subjects with WT tumors [103]. In addition, significant improvement in the progression-free survival (PFS) was seen for patients with PIK3CA mutant-specific ctDNA treated with Alpelisib, indicating that the efficacy of PI3Kα inhibitors is dependent on PIK3CA-mutant tumors [104]. However, patients with other concurrent alterations in TP53, FGFR1 and KRAS did not benefit from Alpelisib, indicating that exclusion of these additional resistance biomarkers could enhance the efficacy of PI3K inhibitors in cancers [105]. There is evidence suggesting that PIK3CA hotspot mutations do not always capture all PI3K-dependent tumor genotypes that potentially respond to PI3K inhibitors. Hence, selection of the optimal patient population with activating PIK3CA mutations and identification of other genotypes conferring PI3K pathway dependence including PIK3CA mutations or amplifications must be included in PI3K inhibitor-based trials [45].
2.8. Miscellaneous Resistance Mechanisms
In addition to those mentioned above, there are other factors and mechanisms of resistance and/or compensatory pathways derived from both clinical and in vitro lab studies, which affect PI3K signaling. These include (a) HRAS and KRAS mutations which reduce susceptibility to PI3K inhibitors while knockdown of these has shown to improve sensitivity to PI3K inhibitors [106,107]. (b) NOTCH-MYC pathway/MYC amplification: NOTCH pathway and downstream induction of c-MYC confer resistance to PI3K inhibitors whereas knocking down MYC reverses resistance to PI3K/mTOR dual inhibitors [108]. Another report indicated that MYC amplification is associated with eIF4E-mediated resistance to dual PI3K inhibitors [109]. (c) Other factors that confer resistance to PI3K inhibitors include ribosomal S6 kinases 3/4 (RSK3/4), p21-activated kinase1 (PAK1), mitogen- and stress-activated kinase 1 (MSK1), lysine demethylase 6B (KDM6B), insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 (IGFBP5) and cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) [110,111,112,113,114]. (d) FGFR1amplifications [115]. Overexpression and/or amplification of AXL, serum/glucocorticoid regulated kinase family member 3 (SGK3), PIM1, S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (SKP2), phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1-serine/threonine-protein kinase1 (PDK1-SGK1) [116,117,118,119,120]. In addition, there are other factors leading to resistance mechanisms such as a high level of purine-related metabolites, elevated glycolysis with dysregulated mitochondrial signaling leading to loss of PTEN and PPP2R2B expression in response to dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitors [121,122,123], macrophages in the tumor microenvironment contributing to PI3K inhibitor resistance via the NFĸB pathway [124], and lack of PI3K mutant-specific inhibitors currently available [45]. These are other pathways which need to be explored and targeted in the development of successful PI3K inhibitors.
3. Recent Advances in PI3K Inhibitor-Based Therapies
There are several PI3K inhibitors including pan, isoform-specific and dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitors which are tested in various phases of human clinical trials. In this section, we describe the active not-recruiting and completed studies involving PI3K inhibitors. We have also briefly mentioned about novel pan-PI3K inhibitors yet to be tested in clinical trials including RIDR-PI-103 that is currently investigated in our laboratory. Figure 1 highlights various drugs targeting PI3K signaling.
3.1. Pan-PI3K Inhibitors
Pan-PI3K inhibitors target all four isoforms (α, ß, δ, and γ) of class I PI3K and are ATP-competitive inhibitors. These inhibitors are associated with several adverse effects due to unselective blockage of PI3K signaling. Herein, we have listed pan-PI3K inhibitors which are in different stages of human clinical trials. Out of all pan-PI3K inhibitors, only Copanlisib has been approved by the FDA.
3.1.1. Buparlisib/NVP-BKM120/BKM120
Buparlisib/NVP-BKM120/BKM120 is a potent oral reversible bioavailable pan-PI3K inhibitor targeting p110 -α,-ß, -δ, -γ isoforms with IC50 values of 52, 166, 116 and 262 nM, respectively [125]. Few of the active not-recruiting and completed trials testing Buparlisib in phase I and phase II are mentioned below. Most of the clinical trials using Buparlisib are either sponsored or are in collaboration with Novartis Pharmaceuticals. For example, a phase I active trial is testing Buparlisib with Rituximab, a chimeric monoclonal antibody against CD20 in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) indolent B-cell lymphoma. The study was sponsored by the Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center. The main aim of the trial was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicities (DLT) of this drug combination [126].
There are several completed studies with Buparlisib without any significant clinical outcomes as summarized below. The trials with specific clinical outcomes and adverse events are summarized in Table 1. An early phase I study aimed to determine the grade of inhibition of PI3K/mTOR signaling in a pre-surgery setting with Buparlisib along with potential biomarker assessment for a pathologic complete response in breast cancer patients. This was sponsored by Grupo Hospital de Madrid [127]. A phase II trial sponsored by University Hospital, Essen investigated the efficacy and safety of Buparlisib with tamoxifen (an ER inhibitor) in ER/PR+, HER2- breast cancer patients with prior exposure to anti-hormonal therapy [128]. A phase I multicenter, non-randomized open-label dose-escalation study aimed to investigate the MTD of Buparlisib in combination with LEE011 (a CDK4/6 inhibitor) and Letrozole (a non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor) in HR+, HER2- post-menopausal women with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer (MBC) was completed without significant outcomes [129]. A phase I study tested the efficacy of Buparlisib in Chinese patients with advanced solid tumors [130].

Pictilisib in combination with Erlotinib (Erl) in advanced solid tumors [236] |
Completed | Genentech, Inc. | I, NCT00975182 | The combination could be safely administered to these patients (n = 57), with RP2D being 340 mg Pic (5 days on and 2 days off schedule) and 100 mg Erl. However, this combination demonstrated limited anti-tumor activity. | - |
Pictilisib in patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors for which no therapy exists or is ineffective or intolerable [237] | Completed | Genentech, Inc. | I, NCT00876122 |
Pic was safe, well tolerated, had a dose-proportional PK, PD activities (at highest level of drug exposure: AUC >20 h × umol/L) and showed anti-tumor activity in these patients; n = 60). The RP2D of Pic was established as 330 mg once daily dose. Pic was rapidly absorbed on oral administration and the Tmax was 2 h (range: 0.5–8 h). Terminal plasma elimination T1/2 was between 13.1–24.1 h. The drug accumulation index (AUCDay15/AUCDay1) was 1.2–2.2. There was modest drug accumulation following multiple dosing of Pic. There was a concentration- and dose-dependent decrease in pAKT levels on days 1 and 15 evaluated in platelet-rich plasma along with reduction in p-S6 and p-AKT levels in tumor biopsies. When 330 mg Pic was administered, up to 90% inhibition of p-AKT was observed 1–3 h post-dosing and the effect was sustained for 24 h. As per RECIST criteria, 1 patient with BRAFV600E-mutant metastatic melanoma achieved a PR. As per GCIG-CA125 criteria, 1 patient heavily pretreated, platinum-refractory advanced epithelial ovarian cancer with PIK3CA amplification and PTEN loss demonstrated a radiologic SD for 4 months. Target modulation was confirmed in 7/32 patients as indicated by significant increase in plasma and glucose levels along with more than 25% decrease in 18F-FDG uptake by PET. | Maculopapular rash, nausea, fatigue, vomiting, dysgeusia, decreased appetite and hyperglycemia. |

Pictilisib in combination with Fulvestrant in ER+ advanced/MBC patients resistant to aromatase inhibitor therapy (FERGI) [239] | Completed | Genentech, Inc. | II, NCT01437566 | The combination did not significantly improve the PFS. The use of Pic in these patients was limited due to toxicity issues (n = 168). No further studies were proposed to test Pic in this setting. | - |
Pictilisib in combination with Anastrozole (Ana) in ER+ breast cancer patients (OPPORTUNE) [240] | Completed | - | II, ISRCTN26131497 |
The combination significantly augmented tumor cell proliferation, as marked by increased Ki67 expression in luminal B primary breast cancer subtype. Significant interaction between molecular subtype and response to treatment was observed (p = 0.03), indicating that Ki67 suppression was greater in the combination group vs. group treated with Ana alone in these patients, irrespective of baseline Ki67 expression or PgR status. No significant Ki67 response for Pic was observed for patients with luminal A subtype tumors (p = 0.98). No significant correlation between PIK3CA mutation and activity of Pic was established. Pic (260 mg once a day) + Ana (1 mg/day) (n = 26): Mean % suppression and end of treatment Ki67 expression was 83.8% and 2.9%, respectively. The anti-proliferative response rate for PAM50 luminal B tumors was 86.5%. Patients with PR- luminal B status demonstrated greatest anti-proliferative effect from combination treatment. The combination was also more effective in patients with PgR- luminal A subtype breast cancer. Ana (n = 49): Mean % suppression and end of treatment Ki67 expression was 66% and 6.1%, respectively. The anti-proliferative response rate for PAM50 luminal B tumors was 63.6%. |

Copanlisib in patients with solid tumors and NHL patients [244] | Completed | Bayer | I, NCT02155582 | 63 patients received Cop at 0.4 or 0.8 mg/kg on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28 day cycle. PRP pAKT levels demonstrated sustained reductions from baseline post-Cop treatment [median inhibition: 0.4 mg/kg, 73.8% (range-94.9 to 144.0); 0.8 mg/kg, 79.6% (range-96.0 to 408.0)]. Tumor pAKT was lowered versus baseline with Cop 0.8 mg/kg in paired biopsy samples. Dose-related transient plasma glucose elevations were seen. Cop plasma exposure significantly correlated with alterations in plasma pAKT levels and glucose metabolism markers. There were 2 CRs and 6 PRs in patients with lymphoma and solid tumors combined together; 7 of 8 responders received Cop 0.8 mg/kg. The RP2D was defined at 0.8 mg/kg (or flat-dose equivalent of 60 mg) in patients with solid tumors and lymphoma. | Hyperglycemia, fatigue and hypertension. |
Copanlisib with either Gemcitabine or Cisplatin (Cis) plus Gemcitabine (Gem) in advanced cancer patients [245] | Completed | Bayer | I, NCT01460537 | 50 patients were enrolled and treated with Cop in Arms A and B in dose escalation (n = 16) and dose expansion (n = 20), respectively. In Arm A, 8 patients received Cop at 0.6 mg/kg + Gem and 8 patients at 0.8 mg/kg + Gem (1000 mg/m2) in dose escalation. There was 1 DLTs. Cop 0.8 mg/kg + Gem 1000 mg/m2 weekly in a 3 weeks on/1 week off schedule was identified as the MTD and RP2D of this drug combination. In Arm B, 20 patients received Cop at 0.8 mg/kg with Gem + Cis and no DLTs were observed. No treatment-related deaths or relevant PK interactions were observed. Of the 2 patients enrolled in treatment schedule B with BTC, 1 achieved a CR and 3 had a PR according to RECIST criteria out of which 2 were enrolled in expansion cohort. | Hyperglycemia, nausea, diarrhea, anemia and fatigue. |
Copanlisib in Chinese patients [246] | Completed | Bayer | I, NCT03498430 | 13 patients (11 with FL and 2 with MZL) received treatment out of which 12 patients were evaluated for efficacy. Cop PK exposure profiles were in the same range as of those from previous studies of Cop in non-Chinese patients in clinical dose of 60 mg. The ORR was 50% (95% CI: 21.1, 78.9) with 6 patients achieving a best response of a PR in 1 patient and SD in 6 patient. The disease control rate was 100% (95% CI: 73.5, 100.0). The median duration of SD was 163 days (range 106–218, including censored values). | Hyperglycemia, transient hypertension both Gr 3. However, no Gr 4 or Gr 5 adverse events observed. |
Copanlisib in R/R diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients [247] | Completed | Bayer | II, NCT02391116 | The full-analysis (FAS) and per-protocol sets (PPS; ≥3 doses, post-baseline scans and NGS/COO data) included 67 and 40 patients with DLBCL, respectively. In the PPS, there were 22 GCB DLBCL (2 mutants), 16 ABC DLBCL (6 mutants), and 2 unclassifiable. The ORR in the PPS was 25% (10 of 40 patients), with 5 CRs, 5 PRs, 12 SD among all patients. The ORR was 13.6% with 1 CR in GCB patients and 37.5% with 4 CRs (25%) in ABC patients. Response to Cop was 25% in patients with (2/8) and without (8/32) CD79B mutations. 5 of 10 ABC DLBCL-WTCD79B patients and 1 GCB DLBCL-mCD79B responded (ongoing > 17 cycles) to treatment. NGS analysis in 54 patients detected 348 mutations; BCL2 (54%), TP53 (41%), BCL6 (30%), MYC (22%), CD79B (19%)/A (6%), MYD88 (19%), TNFAIP3 (17%), CARD11 (13%) and NFKBIA (9%). Response to Cop was not significantly different based on BCL2, BCL6, MYC and MYD88 mutations. There were 14 Gr 5 AEs (none drug-related). Cop treatment had encouraging responses, especially in the ABC subtype with a manageable toxicity. | Diarrhea, nausea, fatigue, fever, transient hypertension and hyperglycemia. |
I. Itraconazole or Rifampin (Rif) on the PK of a single intravenous dose of Copanlisib; II. Copanlisib on cardiovascular safety in advanced solid tumors and NHL patients [248] | Completed | Bayer | I, NCT02253420 | The geometric LS mean for Cmax and AUC for co-treatment of Rif (60 mg) + Cop (600 mg) was reduced by 14% and 56%, respectively, versus Cop alone. Cop clearance increased by 2.3-fold from 22.6 to 51.4 L/h with co-administration of Rif. Cop geometric mean T1/2 value reduced from 39 h (Cop alone) to 17 h (Cop + Rif). Geometric mean Cmax for Cop minor metabolite M-1 was 4-fold higher with Rif vs. Cop alone. Geometric LS mean AUC for M-1 was 0.614 (39% reduced) (90% CI: 0.504 to 0.747) compared to Cop alone. Treatments were well tolerated. Co-administration of Rif reduced Cop AUC and increased its principal metabolite M-1, consistent with the proposed metabolic pathway. The results indicated that concomitant use of Cop with strong inducers of CYP3A4 must be avoided. | - |

Another phase I study of Buparlisib was explored in combination with chemotherapeutics Cisplatin and Etoposide in patients with small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). The study was sponsored by University of California. The primary objective of the trial was to determine the safety and feasibility and the secondary objectives were to establish the MTD, DLT and pharmacokinetic parameters of this triple drug combination regimen [131]. It was also investigated with LEE011 plus Fulvestrant along with another PI3K-α-specific class I inhibitor (BYL719) to explore the clinical utility of this drug combination in ER+/HER2- locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer patients [132]. A phase I dose-escalation treatment regimen included Buparlisib administrated in a concurrent treatment arms with chemotherapy (Capecitabine) or anti-HER2 targeted therapy in patients with MBC. The first treatment arm tested Buparlisib plus Capecitabine, the second arm tested BYL719 plus Capecitabine, the third arm tested BKM120 with Capecitabine plus Trastuzumab (a monoclonal antibody targeting HER2) and the last arm tested the concurrent treatment of Buparlisib with Capecitabine plus Lapatinib (a HER2-specific inhibitor). The study was initiated by the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center in collaboration with Novartis Pharmaceuticals and aimed to achieve the tolerability, safety, and MTD of these regimens [133]. A phase II study sponsored by US Oncology Research investigated the safety and efficacy of Buparlisib in combination with chemotherapy, Capecitabine in breast cancer patients with brain metastases [134]. Another chemotherapy (Docetaxel) was tested with Buparlisib in an early phase I pilot study to identify the adverse effects and the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Buparlisib in patients with locally advanced metastatic solid tumors who cannot be treated with surgery. The study was sponsored by Roswell Park Cancer Institute in collaboration with NCI and Novartis Pharmaceuticals [135]. A multicenter, open-label phase I study sponsored by the UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center aimed to define the MTD of Buparlisib with a chemotherapy regimen folinic acid (leucovorin)-fluorouracil-oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX6) in advanced metastatic pancreatic cancer patients [136]. A phase I trial aimed to evaluate the preliminary anti-tumor effect, the safety profile/tolerability of BKM120 or BEZ235 (another PI3K/mTOR inhibitor) with Letrozole (non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor) used as endocrine therapy in post-menopausal MBC patients. The study was sponsored by the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center [137]. A phase I study sponsored by Washington University School of Medicine in collaboration with NCI aimed to determine the toxicity profile and the MTD of Buparlisib with Fulvestrant in estrogen receptor (ER)+ stage IV breast cancer patients [138].
A phase I study evaluating the best dose of Buparlisib in combination with chemotherapies (Carboplatin and Pemetrexed disodium) was completed in patients with stage IV lung cancer. The study was sponsored by City of Hope Medical Center with NCI and aimed to figure out the RP2D, DLTs of this combination regimen [139]. Other chemotherapies were also tested in combination with Buparlisib. For example, in a phase Ib study sponsored by Fondazione Michelangelo, Buparlisib was tested with Cisplatin (in group 1) or with Carboplatin (in group 2) to identify the RP2D of these drug combinations for patients with advanced solid tumors [140]. A phase I pilot study aimed to identify the clinical benefits, overall response rate (ORR) and toxicities associated with Buparlisib treatment in patients with non-hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The trial was sponsored by Mayo Clinic with NCI [141]. Two phase I/II trials tested the efficacy of Buparlisib in combination with either thoracic radiotherapy or with Erlotinib, an EGFR inhibitor in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients [142,143]. An open-label, phase II trial evaluated Buparlisib to determine the PFS for patients with R/R primary central nervous lymphoma (PCNSL) and R/R secondary central nervous system lymphoma (SCNSL) [144].

CH5132799/PA-79 is a novel oral pan-class I PI3K inhibitor with a strong inhibitory activity against the PI3Kα isoform (IC50 = 0.014 μM). This drug has promising anti-tumor activity in PI3K mutation-driven cancers and xenograft mice models [145,146]. To date, there is only one phase I study that has tested CH5132799 as described in Table 1.
3.1.3. Pilaralisib/XL147/SAR245408
Pilaralisib/XL147/SAR245408 is a reversible pan-class I PI3K inhibitor against the PI3Kα/δ/γ isoforms with respective IC50 values of 39 nM/36 nM/23 nM in cell-free assays although known to be less potent to PI3Kβ isoform [147,148]. Most trials using Pilaralisib were sponsored by Sanofi. In an early phase I study sponsored by Sanofi in collaboration with Merrimack Pharmaceuticals, Pilaralisib was tested with MM-121/SAR256212, an anti-HER3 antibody with a goal to determine the MTD and RP2D of this drug combination in patients with advanced solid tumors [149]. Another such phase I dose-escalation trial tested the clinical efficacy of Pilaralisib with MSC1936369B, an oral MEK inhibitor in locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors to evaluate the safety, tolerability and initial PK profile of this drug combination [150]. Similar phase I and II studies sponsored by Sanofi, respectively, investigated Pilaralisib as monotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumors or recurrent endometrial cancer [151,152].
3.1.4. ZSTK474
ZSTK474 is an oral ATP-competitive pan-PI3K class I inhibitor with week effectiveness against mTOR [153]. To date, Zenyaku Kogyo Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan has sponsored all the known clinical trials using this drug. ZSTK474 was tested as a monotherapy in open-label phase I studies in Japanese patients and other cancer patients with advanced solid tumors to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy and initial PK profile [154,155].
3.1.5. Sonolisib/PX-866
Sonolisib/PX-866 is an improved semi-synthetic analog of Wortmannin, which is an oral, irreversible pan-PI3K inhibitor that had demonstrated significant anti-tumor effect in squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck (SCCHN) patients with PI3K mutation [156]. It exhibits strong inhibitory activity against PI3K110 -α, -δ and -γ isoforms but poor activity against the ß isoform [157]. A phase I/II study tested Sonolisib in combination with Docetaxel in patients with solid tumors [158]. The study was sponsored by Cascadian Therapeutics which also evaluated Sonalisib as monotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumor in yet another early phase I trial [159]. A phase I/II open-label study determined the safety and efficacy of Sonolisib with Cetuximab-based chemotherapy in a combination treatment regimen. In the phase I part of the trial, Sonolisib plus Cetuximab was administrated in patients with castration resistant colorectal (CRC) cancer or progressive, recurrent SCCHN. The phase II part of the study was a randomized evaluation of the anti-tumor activity and safety of Sonolisib plus Cetuximab versus Cetuximab alone in patients with either incurable metastatic CRC who had a prior history of progression or recurrence on chemotherapy-based treatment regimens including Irinotecan and Oxaliplatin, or were resistant to Irinotecan treatment (group 1) or in metastatic SCCHN (group 2) [160].
3.1.6. Pictilisib/GDC-0941/RG7321
Pictilisib/GDC-0941/RG7321 is an oral bioavailable potent PI3Kα/δ inhibitor with an IC50 of 3 nM and has weak selectivity against the p110β (10-fold) and p110γ (25-fold) isoforms. It binds and competes with the ATP-binding pocket to inhibit PI3K signaling pathway [161,162]. It also had a better tolerability and safety profile in Japanese patients with advanced NSCLC [163]. Most of the trials using Pictilisib are sponsored by Genentech. In one such open-label, multicenter, phase Ib dose-escalation study, Pictilisib was administered with one of three chemotherapies regimens: Arm A: Paclitaxel plus Carboplatin in Bevacizumab-ineligible NSCLC patients, Arm B: Paclitaxel, Carboplatin plus Bevacizumab in Bevacizumab-eligible NSCLC patients and Arm C: Pemetrexed, Cisplatin with Bevacizumab in Bevacizumab-eligible NSCLC patients to assess the tolerability, safety and PK profile of pictilisib [164]. Another phase II study tested Pictilisib with the above chemotherapy regimens in NSCLC patients [165]. A phase Ib open-label, three arm and dose-escalation study investigated the safety, tolerability, PK and activity of oral Pictilisib administered with either intravenous (IV) infusion of humanized monoclonal antibody Trastuzumab covalently linked to the cytotoxic agent DM1 (T-DM1) or IV infusion of Trastuzumab in HER+ breast cancer progressed on Transtuzumab therapy [166]. Another phase I study tested the safety and efficacy of Pictilisib in advanced or metastatic tumors [167].
3.1.7. Copanlisib/BAY 80-6946/Aliqopa
Copanlisib/BAY 80-6946/Aliqopa is an intravenous highly potent and reversible pan-class I PI3K inhibitor with significant activity against α and δ isoforms. Copanlisib was brought into market by Bayer and approved by the FDA for treatment of patients with relapsed follicular lymphoma (FL) [168,169]. In a phase I trial, Copanlisib was tested with Paclitaxel in patients with advanced cancer to determine its MTD and RP2D [170].
There are several active trials which are not currently enrolling patients for Copanlisib testing as summarized below. For example, a phase Ib/II active trial is investigating Copanlisib in Japanese patients with relapsed indolent B-cell NHL [171]. In another phase I study (ROCOCO), Copanlisib is currently being explored with Rogaratinib (a FGFR inhibitor) to evaluate the safety, tolerability and the MTD of this drug combination in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors with a primary objective to find the RP2D. The secondary objective of the trial is to characterize the PK profile and anti-tumor efficacy [172]. A phase I/II study is testing the safety and efficacy of Copanlisib with chemotherapy, Gemcitabine in patients with R/R peripheral T-cell or NK/T-cell lymphoma. The study is sponsored by Chonnam National University Hospital in collaboration with Consortium for improving survival of lymphoma and Bayer to determine the DLTs, MTD and RP2D [173]. In a large-scale randomized phase III study (CHRONOS-2 and 3), Copanlisib is treated alone or in combination with Rituximab in Rituximab-refractory indolent NHL patients [174,175]. In further extension of this phase III study (CHRONOS-4) Copanlisib is explored with standard immune-chemotherapy versus placebo or immunotherapy control to assess the PFS in the above patients [176]. A phase Ib/II study (COPAN-ORL06) sponsored by UNICANCER is assessing the MTD, efficacy and RP2D of Copanlisib in combination with Cetuximab in patients with recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) with a PIK3CA mutation/amplification and/or a PTEN loss [177]. A phase I/II trial is investigating the best dose and side effects of Copanlisib when given with Letrozole and Palbociclib in HR+ and HER2- stage I–IV breast cancer patients [178]. A phase II study is testing the safety and efficacy of Copanlisib plus Gemcitabine and Cisplatin in patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma. The study is sponsored by the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute in collaboration with Bayer [179].
3.1.8. B591
B591, a dihydrobenzofuran-imidazolium salt is a novel pan-PI3K inhibitor with potent inhibitory activity against class I PI3K. This has shown significant inhibition of cellular PI3K/AKT signaling with robust anti-tumor activity in a set of cancer cell lines. However, it has not entered into clinical trials [180].
3.1.9. TG-100-115
TG-100-115 is a pan-PI3K inhibitor, developed by Sanofi, which has significant activity against γ/δ isoforms with IC50 values of 83 nM/235 nM in cell-free assay. However, TG-100–115 has less effect against α/β isoforms [181]. This drug is in phase I and phase II trials in other diseases but not in cancer. However, Song et al. have shown that TG100-115 can be used as a potent TRPM7 kinase inhibitor and a potent suppressor of breast cancer cell migration [182].
3.1.10. RIDR-PI-103
The pyridinylfuranopyrimidine inhibitor, PI-103 is a pan-PI3K inhibitor which targets p110α/β/δ/γ isoforms with IC50 values of 2 nM/3 nM/3 nM/15 nM in cell-free assays and has a strong activity against PI3Kα isoform. However, it failed in clinical trials due to toxicity and poor bioavailability issues [183]. Therefore, a bioisostere of PI-103 (RIDR-PI-103) was synthesized with a structural modification containing a boronate in place of a phenolic hydroxyl group which enhanced the bioavailability of PI-103 [184]. RIDR-PI-103 differs from the boron-containing compound as it releases PI-103 under oxidative stress in tumor microenvironment. This self-cyclizing prodrug has shown significant in vitro anti-cancer efficacy in acute myeloid leukemia [185]. In addition, our laboratory has shown that RIDR-PI-103 in combination with the chemotherapeutic, doxorubicin impaired PI3K signaling, increased DNA damage response and suppressed in vitro breast cancer cell growth [186]. Active not-recruiting and completed trials with specific clinical outcomes for pan-PI3K inhibitors are summarized in Table 1.
4. Isoform-Specific Inhibitors
Isoform-specific PI3K inhibitors cause selective inhibition of specific PI3K isoforms (α/β/γ or δ). Out of all the isoform-specific drugs, four drugs which included Alpelisib, Idelalisib, Umbralisib and Duvelisib are approved by the FDA. These inhibitors reduce off-target toxicities although these require narrow patient selection.
4.1. BYL719/Alpelisib/Piqray
Alpelisib/BYL719/Piqray is a potent oral selective PI3Kα inhibitor targeting PIK3CA-mutated cancers [251,252]. The role of Alpelisib has also been identified outside cancer in PIK3CA-related overgrowth syndromes (PROS) which are caused by mosaic gain-of-function mutations in the PIK3CA gene. It is shown that daily oral administration of Alpelisib in the mouse model of PROS post-tamoxifen administration, effectively suppressed PIK3CA pathway activation, which prevented the PROS phenotype and enhanced survival [253]. Alpelisib was approved by the FDA for PIK3CA-mutated, HR+, HER2- advanced breast cancer who had received endocrine therapy previously [254,255]. Most of the studies using Alpelisib are sponsored by Novartis Pharmaceuticals. One such trial tested Alpelisib in a phase I study with a HSP90 inhibitor (AUY922) to determine the MTD and/or recommended dose of expansion (RDE) of this drug combination in patients with advanced gastric cancer [256]. A dose-escalation phase Ib trial involved Alpelisib with Imatinib (a RTK inhibitor) in gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) patients who had relapsed with Imatinib and Sunitinib (a RTK inhibitor) [257]. A phase Ib/II investigated Alpelisib with HER3 monoclonal antibody (LJM716) versus Taxane or Irinotecan with previously treated esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients. The aim of the study was to evaluate the MTD and/or RP2D of this drug combination [258]. A phase Ib/II study investigated Alpelisib with an oral pan-PIM kinase inhibitor (LGH447/PIM447) in relapsed myeloma patients. The study aimed to explore the MTD and RP2D of this combination [259]. Another phase II trial tested Alpelisib in Chinese patients with NSCLC [260].
There are several active not-recruiting studies testing Alpelisib in various stages of clinical trials as mentioned below. A phase II study (SAFIR PI3K) is underway in patients with PIK3CA-mutated advanced breast cancer which compares Alpelisib and ER inhibitor (Fulvestrant) versus chemotherapy in these patients. The trial sponsored by UNICANCER aims to determine whether this drug combination could prolong the PFS versus maintenance chemotherapy in the above subjects [261]. A phase I study is currently testing Alpelisib with a potent, oral bioavailable selective estrogen receptor degrader (SERD), LSZ102 in advanced or metastatic ER+ breast cancer patients progressed after endocrine therapy. The study aims to identify the safety, tolerability, PK and anti-tumor efficacy of this combined regimen [262]. A phase I study is testing Alpelisib in locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma head and neck cancer (LA-SCCHN) patients in combination with standard radiation and chemotherapy, Cisplatin. The study is sponsored by University Health Network, Toronto in collaboration with Novartis [263].
4.2. Serabelisib/INK-117/MLN-117/TAK-117
Serabelisib/INK-1117/MLN-1117/TAK-117 is a potent oral PI3K inhibitor with an IC50 of 21 nmol/L against PI3Kα isoform. The first in human phase I study evaluated the safety and efficacy of Serabelisb in patients with advanced solid tumors [264]. A phase II study is investigating Serabelisib with oral mTORC1/2 inhibitor Sapanisertib (TAK-228) in TNBC patients to target the DNA repair pathway. The study is sponsored by Baylor Research Institute in collaboration with Takeda [265]. A phase II study evaluated the efficacy and safety of MLN0128 and the combination of MLN0128 plus Serabelisib versus Everolimus in the treatment of metastatic clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (mccRCC) patients who progressed on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-targeted therapy [266]. A phase I study tested Serabelisib with mTORC1/2 inhibitor Sapanisertib (TAK-228) in patients with advanced non-hematological patients to determine the DLTs, MTD and/or RP2D of this drug combination [267].
4.3. GSK2636771
GSK2636771 is an orally bioavailable PI3Kβ inhibitor with >900-fold selectivity over the PI3Kα/γ isoforms and >10-fold selectivity over the PI3Kδ isoform. A phase I study tested GSK2636771 with Enzalutamide in male patients with CRPC. The study was sponsored by GlaxoSmithKline and aimed to evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy to help guide the selection of the RP2D [268]. To date, there are few active non-recruiting trials using GSK2636771. For example, a phase Ib/IIa, open-label, dose-finding study is evaluating the safety, efficacy and clinical activity of GSK2636771 with Paclitaxel in patients with higher grade of gastric adenocarcinoma [269]. NCI is currently testing GSK2636771 in cancer patients with a PTEN alteration [270,271].
4.4. Idelalisib/GS-1101/CAL-101/Zydelig
Idelalisib/GS-1101/CAL-101/Zydelig, an oral PI3Kδ inhibitor with an IC50 value of 2.5 nM in cell-free assays was the first FDA-approved PI3K inhibitor for the treatment of patients with R/R CLL or LL/FL who progressed on prior therapies [272]. A phase Ib study sponsored by Novartis Pharmaceuticals tested Idelalisib in a dose-escalation trial with BCL201 (elective BH3-mimetic inhibitor of BCL-2) in patients with FL and MCL [273]. The primary objective of the study was to determine the safety and tolerability of this drug combination. Other completed trials with published clinical outcomes and adverse events for Idelalisib treatment are summarized in Table 2.

BYL719/Alpelisib/Piqray | |||||
Alpelisib (Alp) + Paclitaxel (Pac) in advanced solid tumors [313] | Completed | Novartis Pharmaceuticals | I, NCT02051751 | 19 patients were treated with Alp once daily (300 mg, n = 6; 250 mg, n = 4; 150 mg, n = 9) plus Pac (80 mg/m2) once weekly. 5/12 patients evaluated for MTD had DLTs. The MTD of Alp was identified as 150 mg once daily when given with Pac (80 mg/m2 once weekly dose). Best overall response was PR in 3, SD in 11, PR in 4 patients, respectively, with 1 deceased patient in total n = 18 patients evaluated for response. AUC(0-inf) and Cmax of Pac was comparable on cycle 1 of both day 1 and 8 and was independent of Alp dose. Cmax and AUC0–24 of Alp increased in a dose-dependent manner with few exceptions. The steady-state exposure of Alp (150–300 mg) had no impact on Pac metabolism. Tmax of Alp on cycle 1 day 8 ranged from 3.17 to 4.17 h and independent of Alp dose. | The most common TEAEs were diarrhea, hyperglycemia, anemia, asthenia and nausea. Gr 3/4 TEAEs were hyperglycemia, anemia, diarrhea, lymphopenia, neutropenia and leukopenia. |
Alpelisib + Gemcitabine (Gem) and Paclitaxel in advanced pancreatic cancer [314] | Completed | H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute in collaboration with Novartis Pharmaceuticals | I, NCT02155088 | 15 patients were enrolled with cohort 1 and 2 (n = 3), cohort 3 (n = 9), but 4 were replaced as 3 patients withdrew consent before evaluation and 1 patient missed over 10 days of treatment. Drugs were given as follows cohort 1: (Alp: 250 mg/day + Gem: 800 mg/m2 + Pac: 125 mg/m2); cohort 2 (Alp: 250 mg/day + Gem: 1000 mg/m2 + Pac: 125 mg/m2); cohort 3 (Alp: 300 mg/day + Gem: 1000 mg/m2 + Pac: 125 mg/m2); cohort 4 (Alp: 350 mg/day + Gem: 1000 mg/m2 + Pac: 125 mg/m2). 1 patient developed PRES. 1 patient in cohort 3 had a DLT (Gr 3 nausea and vomiting). Out of 8 patients evaluated for response, 2 patients had SD, 5 had PRs and 1 had PD. The median PFS was 5.36 months (95% CI: 1.6—10 months) and overall survival was 8.74 months (95% CI: 3.8–21.2 months), respectively. The triple combination could be safely given to patients with a dose of Alp upto 250 mg per day. | Hyperglycemia, anemia, reduced neutrophil count, nausea and vomiting. |
Alpelisib + Letrozole (Let) or Exemestane (Exe) in patients with HR+ locally advanced unresectable or MBC [315] | Completed | Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center with Novartis Pharmaceuticals | I, NCT01870505 | 14 patients were enrolled and treated in two Arms. Arm A (n = 7; Alp + Let) and Arm B (n = 7; Alp + Exe). Alp was administrated at 250 mg (DL-1) or 300 mg (DL0). All patients in both arms were evaluated and demonstrated similar toxicities. DLTs seen included maculopapular rash, hyperglycemia and abdominal pain. PIK3CA status was found to be WT/mutant/unknown in 5/8/1 patients, respectively. Out of 9 patients evaluated for response, 5 patients had SD and 1 patient had a PR with liver metastasis. Continuous Alp dosing with Let or Exe showed promising results. However, onset of maculopapular rash encouraged the use of dermatological approaches with a non-continuous dosing schedule for further studies. | Common TEAEs were Gr 2 mucositis, hyperglycemia, dyspepsia, fatigue. Gr 3 maculopapular rash, skin biopsies showed non-specific inflammation, hyperglycemia and abdominal pain. Gr 4 TEAEs not reported. |
Alpelisib + Fulvestrant (Ful) in ER+ advanced breast cancer patients with PIK3CA alterations [316] | Completed | Novartis Pharmaceuticals | I, NCT01219699 | 87 patients received escalating once daily doses of Alp (300 mg; n = 9, 350 mg; n = 8 and 400 mg; n = 70) with fixed-dose of Ful (500 mg/daily). 1/10 patients had DLT during escalation study with Alp dose of 400 mg. The MTD and RP2D of Alp given with Ful (400 mg daily dose) was 300 mg/day. 9 patients permanently discontinued therapy owing to AEs. The median PFS at the MTD of Alp was 5.4 months (95% CI: 4.6–9.0 months). The median PFS with Alp (300–400 mg) once daily dose plus Ful in patients with PIK3CA alterations was 9.1 months (95% CI: 6.6–14.6 months) vs. patients with WT tumors which was 4.7 months (95% CI: 1.9–5.6 months). ORR in patients with PIK3CA alterations (n = 29) was 29% (95% CI, 17–43%), with no objective tumor responses in the WT group (n = 32). AUC(0-24) to Alp (300 and 350 mg/day) plus Ful was similar to single-agent Alp at the same doses in a fed state. Cmax profiles were similar across doses. | Gr 3 events such as vomiting, fatigue, decreased appetite and Gr 2 diarrhea observed. Gr 3/4 AEs were hyperglycemia and maculopapular rash. |
Alpelisib in adult Japanese patients with advanced solid tumors [317] | Completed | Novartis Pharmaceuticals | I, NCT01387321 | 33 patients were enrolled in the trial. 25/33 patients received Alp at 90–400 mg/day in a dose escalation and 8/33 received Alp at 350 mg/day (RP2D) in the expansion cohort, respectively. 3 DLTs observed in 2/5 patients in the escalation cohort at 400 mg Alp. The MTD was not determined. The ORR (CR or PR) was found to be 3.0% (1/33 patients) (95% CI: 0.1–15.8). The DCR (CR or PR or SD) was 57.6% (19/33 patients). The DCRs at RP2D in the expansion cohort and in all patients were 75.0% (6/8 patients) and 78.6% (11/14 patients), respectively. The median PFS at RP2D was 3.4 months (95% CI: 2.8–5.6).The estimated β for Cmax, AUC(0–24), and AUC(0-last) were 0.82 (90% CI: 0.499–1.142), 1.06 (90% CI: 0.791–1.327) and 1.05 (90% CI: 0.772–1.337), indicating that the dose proportionality of Alp. pAKT, pS6 and p4EBP1 levels in skin biopsy decreased post-Alp treatment. PIK3CA mutations or amplifications were seen in 7; TP53 alterations in 11; BRCA2 in 3; KRAS, BRAF and PTEN mutations in 7, 3 and 1 patients, respectively. | Hyperglycemia, maculopapular rash, diarrhea and decreased appetite. |

Taselisib in combination with neoadjuvant Letrozole vs. placebo + Letrozole in post-menopausal women with ER+, HER2- early stage breast cancer (LORELEI) [359] | Completed | Genentech, Inc. in collaboration with SOLTI Breast Cancer Research Group, Breast International Group and Austrian Breast and Colorectal Cancer Group | II, NCT02273973 | A total of 334 patients were enrolled in two groups: Letrozole (2.5 mg oral, daily) + placebo (5 days on, 2 days-off schedule) (n = 168) and Letrozole + Taselisib (4 mg oral) (Total n = 166). PIK3CA mutations were found in 152 (46%) patients, 73 (44%) of 166 randomly assigned to Taselisib and 79 (47%) of 168 assigned to the placebo group. Of the 181 (54%) patients without a detectable PIK3CA mutation, 92 (55%) were randomly assigned to Taselisib and 89 (53%) to placebo. 1 patient without known PIK3CA status was assigned to Taselisib group. The ORR at a median follow up of 4.9 months (IQR: 4.7–5.1 months) was measured in 66/168 (39%) patients in the placebo group vs. 83/166 (50%) in the Taselisib group and found as OR: 1.565 (95% CI: 1–2.38). For patients with PIK3CA mutation, 30/79 (38%) patients in the placebo group vs. 41/73 (56%) patients in the Taselisib group had an OR 2.03 (95% CI: 1.06–3.88). For patients with PIK3CA WT tumors, there was no significant difference observed in patients achieving objective response across both the groups. Ki67 decreased after 3 weeks of treatment in both groups. (1) Letrozole + placebo: 47% of patients had PIK3CA mutation. The decrease in Ki67 (marker of proliferation) value in patients with PIK3CA mutation in this group was −82 (95% CI: −78 to −87). Overall, 2%, 38% and 51% of patients had a CR, PR and SD, respectively. 3% of patients had PD. In the PIK3CA-mutant patients, 3%, 35%, 49% and 4% of patients had CR, PR, SD and PD, respectively. In PIK3CA WT patients in this group, 1%, 39%, 53% and 2% of patients had CR, PR, SD and PD, respectively. (2) Letrozole + Taselisib: 44% of patients had a PIK3CA mutation. More patients in this group harboring PIK3CA mutation had a PR. The decrease in Ki67 value in patients with PIK3CA mutation in this group was −85 (95% CI: −79 to −89). Overall, 5%, 45% and 40% of patients had a CR, PR and SD, respectively. 4% of these patients had PD. In the PIK3CA-mutant patients in this group, 7%, 49%, 38% and 1% of patients had CR, PR, SD and PD, respectively. In the PIK3CA WT patients in this group, 3%, 42%, 41% and 5% of patients had CR, PR, SD and PD, respectively. Taselisib increased the efficacy of Leterozole in these patients (n = 334) especially in patients with PIK3CA mutations. The combination was found to be safe with tolerable toxicity profile. |
Common AEs in Taselisb group: gastrointestinal (diarrhea, nausea and stomatitis), fatigue, hyperglycemia, rash, arthralgia, and hot flush and infection. In the placebo group: vascular, gastro intestinal disorders, infection and infestations were common AEs. |
Taselisib in combination with various anti-HER2 therapies in advanced HER2+ breast cancer patients [360] | Active, not recruiting | Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in collaboration with Genentech, Inc | Ib, NCT02390427 | The combination of Taselisib (2 or 4 mg twice daily) and Trastuzumab emustine (T-DM1; 3.6 mg/kg thrice weekly) demonstrated preliminary efficacy and had an acceptable safety profile in these patients (n = 26). The median PFS was 7.6 months (95% CI: 2.9 months -NR). 4%, 29% and 50% of patients had a CR, PR and SD, respectively, in n = 24 evaluable patients. | Diarrhea, thrombocytopenia, vomiting, hyperglycemia, pneumonitis and elevated beta-glucan levels. |
Taselisib in combination with Palbociclib (a CDK 4/6 inhibitor) in advanced solid tumors (PIPA) [361] | Active, not recruiting | Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust in collaboration with Institute of Cancer Research United Kingdom, Roche Pharma AG and Pfizer |
Ib, NCT02389842 | The combination was tested at the RP2D of Taselisib (2 mg) and Palbociclib (125 mg given 3 weeks on, 1 week off). Patients had a median of 4 prior treatments. There was modulation in pRb, pAKT, pGSK3β levels analyzed in the plasma and in tumor biopsies post-treatment. The combination was well tolerated, with promising anti-tumor activity and efficacy in these patients (n = 20). | Neutropenia, rash, mucositis, thrombocytopenia and increased AST/ALT. No Gr 4 or 5 AEs were observed. |
Taselisib in combination with anti-androgen therapy, Enzalutamide (Enz) in AR+ metastatic TNBC patients [362] | Active, not recruiting | Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center in collaboration with NCI, Translational Breast Cancer Research Consortium, Conquer Cancer Foundation and Genentech, Inc. |
I/II, NCT02457910 | Arm A: Patients received Taselisib (4 mg) orally once daily on days 1 to 28 and Enz (160 mg) PO QD on days 9 to 28 of cycle 1 and days 1 to 28 of subsequent cycles. Arm B: Patients received 160 mg Enz PO QD on days 1 to 28. Cycles were repeated after 28 days. The combination was safe, well tolerated and increased the CBR in these patients (n = 30). The CBR was 35.7% including 4 patients with SD and 1 patient with PR. The median PFS was 3.4 months with median PFS for ER+ patients (7.2 months) being substantially higher than that for TNBC patients (2.1 months). There was no difference in PFS across groups receiving drug combinations or Enz only. There was no difference in PFS or CBR with the PIK3CA status. However, better CBR was reported in TNBC patients with LAR subtype tumors versus other subtypes (75% vs. 12.5%; p = 0.06) along with better median PFS of 4.6 months vs. other subtypes (PFS = 2 months). LAR subtype tumors demonstrated a decrease in proliferation and AR target gene expression post-treatment with combination. Mutational landscape assessment of tumors suggested that LAR tumors were enriched GATA3 and FOXA1 genes. TP53 mutations were frequent across all subtypes. In contrast, non-LAR tumors were enriched in RB1, S82X, R467X (deleterious mutations in cell-cycle) as well as ESCO1,BRCA1, BRACA2, BAP1 and FANCE (DNA repair genes) along with activating mutations in MAPK pathway and growth factor receptors. Two potential oncogenic gene fusions FGFR2-TACC2 and FGFR2-TAOK1 were identified which represent a mechanism by which LAR tumors activated the PI3K pathway. Pathways associated with complement and innate immunity were augmented post-treatment. Treatment with Taselisib and Enz specifically increased T-cell and NK cell markers. AR splice variants might contribute to Enz resistance. The MTD was not reached and the trial was terminated early. The RP2D was achieved at 4 mg daily dose of Taselisib with 160 mg Enz/day. 13 patients were enrolled in the phase I and 17 patients (Enz; n = 5 and Enz + Taselisib; n = 12) in phase II trial. | Hyperglycemia, rash, increased AST/ALT, anemia, neutropenia, fever, fatigue, nausea, vomiting and pruritus. |

The combination was well tolerated and had a favorable safety profile in these patients (n = 516). The two groups were: (1) Taselisib (4 mg oral daily) + Fulvestrant (500 mg) (n = 340): The median PFS was 7.4 months. The median DoR was 8.7 months. The ORR and CBR was 28% and 51.5%, respectively. (2) placebo+ Fulvestrant (n = 176): The median PFS was 5.4 months. The median DoR was 7.2 months. The ORR rate and CBR were 11.9% and 37.3%, respectively. According to BICR-PFS, the Taselisib + Fulvestrant group had a significantly improved PFS vs. the placebo+ Fulvestrant group (hazard ratio: 0.7; p = 0.0037). The OS was not reached during the preliminary analysis. The Taselisib + Fulvestrant group had a better ORR compared to other group (p = 0.0002). | Diarrhea, colitis, hyperglycemia and stomatitis. |

4.15. Leniolisib/CDZ173
Leniolisib/CDZ173 is a potent and selective PI3Kδ inhibitor. Most of the studies using Leniolisib are sponsored by Novartis Pharmaceuticals. Although no studies are known in cancer but it is implicated in immunodeficiency disorders such as activated PI3Kδ syndrome/p110δ-activating mutation causing senescent T cells, lymphadenopathy and immunodeficiency (APDS/PASLI) where it has been tested in phase II/III trials. Rao et al. have shown that treatment with Leniolisib resulted in dose-dependent inhibition of PI3Kδ pathway hyperactivation in cells expressing APDS-causative p110δ variants and in T-cell blasts derived from patients. In addition it was shown that oral administration of Leniolisib in six APDS patients resulted in dose-dependent inhibition of the PI3K/AKT pathway evaluated via ex vivo assay and had enhanced immune dysregulation. Thus, Leniolisib is known to be well tolerated and has improved laboratory and clinical parameters in patients with APDS, supporting the specific inhibition of PI3Kδ as a promising new targeted therapy in patients with APDS and other diseases characterized by hyperactivation of the PI3Kδ pathway [309]. Leniolisib is also tested in patients with primary sjögren’s syndrome (PSS) in phase II trials where its oral administration resulted in inhibition of phosphorylated AKT in ex vivo stimulated B cells, decreased the serum CXCL13 levels and reduced the frequency of circulating follicular T helper-like cells [310].

Apitolisib/GDC-0980/RG7422 | |||||
Apitolisib in patients with refractory solid tumors or NHL [405] | Completed | Genentech, Inc. | I, NCT00854152 | Patients (n = 120) received 2–70 mg of Apitolisib on days 1–21 or 1–28 of 28 day cycles. Apitolisib demonstrated durable anti-tumor activity with a narrow therapeutic window and dose-proportional PK, PD effects (>90% suppression of the surrogate biomarker, platelet pAKT levels and decreased FDG-PET tumor uptake) with target modulation observed in patients treated with >16 mg dose. Stage I of the trial involved dose escalation to estimate MTD and stage II was dose expansion to establish the R2PD. The R2PD and MTD, respectively, were identified at 40 mg QD on a 28/28 dosing schedule except for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) patients and 50 mg QD on a 21/28 dosing schedule. DLTs observed were Gr 4 fasting hyperglycemia at 40 mg (21/28-schedule) and Gr 3 maculopapular rash and Gr 3 fasting hyperglycemia at 70 mg (21/28-schedule). Apitolisib was rapidly absorbed and mean plasma concentration peaked after 1–2 h. The mean terminal elimination T1/2 was 11.3 h (range: 3.26–45.4 h). The drug accumulation was very low. The AUC showed dose proportionality. According to RECIST criteria, in stage I, 4/56 patients demonstrated PR and 2/56 patients demonstrated CR. 77% of patients demonstrated SD. Patients demonstrated tumor shrinkage and no PIK3CA mutations or loss of PTEN was identified. In stage II, 5/64 patients demonstrated PR and the median time for study was 2.9 months (range: 1–21.2 months). SD with tumor regression was observed in 20 patients treated with 40 mg drug. | Thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, hyperglycemia, hypercholesterolemia, increased AST/ALT, pneumonitis, rash, fatigue and mucosal inflammation. |
Apitolisib in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma who progressed on or after VEGF-targeted therapy [406] | Completed | Genentech, Inc. | II, NCT01442090 | Patients (n = 85) were randomized to receive Apitolisib at 40 mg QD or Everolimus 10 mg QD. The median PFS of Apitolisib versus Everolimus was 3.7 versus 6.1 months; hazard ratio, 2.12 (95% CI: 1.23–3.6). The ORR was 7.1% for Apitolisib versus 11.6% for Everolimus. Apitolisib PK profile indicated a direct relationship between exposure and adverse effects including rash and hyperglycemia. Retrospective biomarker analyses indicated a relationship between VHL mutation status and clinical outcome with Everolimus but not with Apitolisib dosing. High HIF-1α protein expression was associated with better outcome in both treatment arms. Apitolisib associated with higher-grade hyperglycemia and rash was less effective than Everolimus in this trial. This could be due to full blockade of PI3K/mTOR signaling which resulted in multiple on-target adverse events. | - |

Bimiralisib in patients with advanced solid tumors [416] | Completed | PIQUR Therapeutics AG | I, NCT01940133 | 28 patients were enrolled and received QD Bimiralisib at range of 10–150 mg. The Cmax and AUC(0–last) increased with increasing doses of Bimiralisib in a roughly dose-proportional manner. The T1/2 was estimated to be ~40 h from the 0–24 h profile. The MTD and RP2D of Bimiralisib were defined as 80 mg QD for patients with activating PIK3CA mutations. There was no significant upregulation or downregulation of PI3K/mTOR-related mRNAs at transcriptional levels although there was a trend of PDGFRA upregulation post-21 days of Bimiralisib treatment. However, there was a significant inhibition of several PI3K/mTOR-associated phosphoproteins. Gr 3 or Gr 4 DLTs were seen in 13 (46%) and 3 (11%) patients, respectively. | Fatigue, nausea, hyperglycaemia, constipation, diarrhea, anorexia, rash and vomiting. |

Voxtalisib in combination with Letrozole in HR+, HER2- MBC patients refractory to non-steroidal aromatase inhibitor [231] | Completed | Sanofi | I/II, NCT01082068 | The combination had an acceptable safety profile (n = 35) but showed limited efficacy in these pateints. The MTD of Voxtalisib plus Letrozole was identified as 50 mg BID (Voxtalisib) and 2.5 mg QD (Letrozole). 1 DLT, Gr 3 rash was seen in Voxtalisib 50 mg BID treatment group. The median PFS and PFS rate at six months was 7.9 weeks (90% CI: 7.1–15.7 weeks) and 2% (90% CI: 1.4–22.3%), respectively. No patient had an objective response. 22% of patients had PFS at 24 weeks. 31% and 46.2% of patients had SD and PD, respectively. No association between efficacy and PIK3CA mutations was established. Voxtalisib did not show any drug–drug interaction with Letrozole. | Rash, increased AST/ALT, diarrhea, hyperglycemia, pruritus, lymphopenia, nausea, vomiting and fatigue. |
Voxtalisib in patients with advanced solid tumors [418] | Completed | Sanofi | I, NCT00485719 | Total n = 83 patients were enrolled and 52 patients received Voxtalisib 15–120 mg BID and 70–100 mg QD. Voxtalisib had a manageable safety profile and was efficient in inhibiting PI3K/mTOR signaling. The MTD was established at 90 mg QD or 50 mg BID. The median duration of treatment was 41 days (range: 4–371 days). 24% of patients demonstrated SD. Voxtalisib showed a relatively short plasma T1/2 of 2.96–7.52 h. Voxtalisib in both a once- or twice-a-day dosing schedule showed similar PK profiles. In addition, most of Voxtalisib got cleared from plasma in 12 or 24 h. The Tmax of voxtalisib was identified at 1–4 h. Voxtalisib treatment also increased plasma insulin levels in these patient populations. pAKTT308, pAKTS473 and pEBP1 levels were reduced by 45% to 88%; 45% to 94% and 55% to 89%, respectively, in paired tumor biopsises. The best overall response was SD in 24 of 50 evaluable patients (48%) and 7 patients demonstrated tumor regression. No relationship could be establsihed between tumor molecular alterations and clinical outcomes associated with Voxtalisib treatment in this patient population. | Nausea, diarrhea, hyperglycemia, decreased appetite, fatigue, rash, dry skin, asthenia, vomiting and increased AST/ALT. |
Voxtalisib in combination with Erlotinib in patients with advanced solid tumors [419] | Completed | Sanofi | I, NCT00777699 | 46 patients with advanced solid tumors were enrolled, which included n = 37 lung cancer patients who had prior anti-EGFR therapy. Voxtalisib was administrated in a 30, 50, 70, or 90 mg QD or 20/30 mg BID dosing schedule in combination with 100 mg QD Erlotinib, in a 28 day cycle. The median duration of treatment for Voxtalisib and Erlotinib was 56 (range, 0–346) and 70 (range, 9–360) days, respectively. MTDs were identified as 70 mg QD Voxtalisib in combination with 100 mg QD Erlotinib in cohort 1, and Voxtalisib (20 mg BID) plus Erlotinib (100 mg QD) in cohort 2. The MTDs in both cohorts were below the RP2D of Voxtalisib (90 mg QD or 50 mg BID) and below the registered dose of Erlotinib (150 mg QD). Best overall response was SD found in 12/32 (37.5%) of the patients. When Voxtalisib was administered in combination with Erlotinib, Voxtalisib was absorbed with median Tmax and T1/2 of 1.6–2 h and 4.3–8.03 h, respectively. Increased dosing of Voxtalisib enhanced the AUC and Cmax proportionally. Molecular profiling of tumor samples of these patients identified mutations in PIK3CA, EGFR, KRAS, TP53 and LKB1 genes. Suppression of PI3K and EGFR/MAPK pathway biomarker expression were increased over time post-treatment as follows pAKTT308: 40–73%; p4EBP1T70: 43–67%; pEGFRY1045: 31–62%; and pERKT202/Y204: 37–75%. | Diarrhea, nausea, rash, stomatitis, vomiting, elevated AST/ALT and photophobia. |
Voxtalisib in patients with solid tumors [420] | Completed | Sanofi | I, NCT01596270 | 49 patients were enrolled and received Voxtalisib treatment as follows: 3 patients in the 50 mg QD cohort, 17 patients in the 60 mg QD cohort, 12 patients in the 70 mg QD cohort, 7 patients in the 50 mg BID cohort, 6 patients in the 40 mg BID cohort and 4 patients in the 30 mg BID dosing cohort, respectively. The median duration of treatment in the QD cohorts was 5.9 weeks (range, 0.9–8.1) and the median duration of treatment in in the BID cohorts was 7.7 weeks (range, 0.9–8.1). The MTD of Voxtalisib was established as 40 mg BID and 60 mg QD. Of 31 and 16 patients evaluable for anti-tumor activity in the QD and BID cohorts, respectively, 9/31 patients (29%) and 8/16 patients (50%) had SD as best response. Voxtalisib exhibited a linear PK profile, with an increase in plasma concentration with increased dosing. Voxtalisib showed no significant accumulation owing to its short T1/2 of 3–4 h. Drug accumulation with BID dosing was greater versus QD dosing regimen. High variability in Cmax and AUC values was observed. Administration of Voxtalisib with food decreased drug exposure. Overall, Voxtalisib had a manageable safety profile in these patients. | Fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, maculopapular rash, dyspnea, decrease in appetite, anemia and hyponatremia. |
Voxtalisib in combination with a MEK inhibitor, Pimasertib in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors [421] | Completed | EMD Serono in collaboration with Sanofi | I, NCT01390818 | 146 patients with advanced cancer were treated, which included 63 patients in the dose escalation and 83 patients in the expansion part of the study. The MTD was identified as Pimasertib 90 mg QD and Voxtalisib 70 mg QD. The RP2D was established at 60 mg Pimasertib and 70 mg Voxtalisib. The best overall responses included a CR in one patient (1%), PR in 5 patients (5%), SD in 51 patients (46%) and PD in 45 patients (41%). At the RP2D, 74 patients needed dose interruption (73%), 20 patients had dose reduction (20%) and 26 had discontinued treatment because of TEAEs (26%). Both drugs were absorbed rapidly and had a median Tmax ~ 1–2 h each. Voxtalisib PK profile demonstrated close proportionality as compared to Pimasertib in the daily regimens. The half-lives using daily dosing schedule were similar across both the groups in the dose-escalation part of the study. The half-lives were 4.3 to 6.1 h on day 1 and 5.5 to 7.2 h on day 15 for Pimasertib; and 3.1 to 3.6 h on day 1 and 3.4 to 5.2 h on day 15 for Voxtalisib treatment, respectively. There was variable accumulation across doses by day 15 post-QD Pimasertib and no known accumulation was seen with Voxtalisib administration. Pimasertib dosing reduced Voxtalisib exposure AUC(0–t) by 11% (90% CI: 67.0–118.8) and Voxtalisib treatment enhanced Pimasertib exposure AUC(0–t) upto ~49% (90% CI: 106.2–208.9). No CR or PR was achieved; therefore no conclusion could be drawn in terms of the correlation between clinical activity of Voxtalisib and mutational profile for predictive genomic markers involving BRAF, KRAS, NRAS, or PIK3CA mutationsin the patient dosed at RP2D. In addition, near complete suppression of both pERK and pS6 expression was identified across for both drugs at most of the dosing interval. Overall, the combination of Voxtalisib with Pimasertib demonstrated poor long-term tolerability and limited anti-tumor activity in these patients (n = 146). | TEAEs were diarrhea, fatigue and nausea. |

The combination had a favorable safety profile in these patients with DLTs reported in 7 patients (13%). The MTDs for Voxtalisib in combination with 200 mg/m2/day TMZ were established at 90 mg QD and 40 mg BID dosing. However, the MTD of Voxtalisib plus RT and TMZ treatment could not be determined. The best overall response included PR and SD in 2/47 (4%) and 32/47 (68%) of the patients, respectively evaluated for response. The Tmax for Voxtalisib and Voxtalisib plus Temozolamide was 0.75–2 h (range: 0.5–4 h) and 1.5–6 h (range: 1–8 h), respectively. Compared with cycle 1 day 1, the mean Cmax and AUCτ on cycle 1 day 22 were 1.4-fold and 1.5-fold higher, respectively, for QD dosing and 1.7-fold and 1.4-fold higher, respectively, for BID dosing of Voxtalisib. The mean Cmax of TMZ on cycle 1 day 1 post-200 mg/m2/day TMZ administration plus different doses of Voxtalisib, ranged from 3650 ng/mL to 8490 ng/mL and achieved a median Tmax of 1.50–6.00 h (range 1.00–8.00 h). The mean TMZ AUC(0–24) ranged from 24,800 to 35,900 ng × h/mL when administered in combination with Voxtalisib. Voxtalisib in combination with TMZ demonstrated moderate inhibition (31–49%) of PI3K/mTOR signaling. | Fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, maculopapular rash, thrombocytopenia, increased AST/ALT, lymphopenia and decreased platelet counts. |
Voxtalisib in patients with recurrent glioma who were surgical resection candidates [423] | Completed | Sanofi | I, NCT01240460 | Total n = 21 patients enrolled in cohort 1 (n = 6), 2 (n = 6) and 3 (n = 7), received Voxtalisb at 50 mg BID, 200 mg QD and 90 mg QD, respectively for >10 days prior to tumor resection and were evaluated for PK/PD analysis. PK analyses indicated a mean tumor to plasma ratio of 0.38 and 0.40 in cohorts 1 and 3 and 0.27 in cohort 2, respectively. Voxtalisib when administered in a 50 mg BID or 90 mg QD dosing schedule demonstrated higher distribution in CNS of these patients along with an acceptable safety profile. Treatment with Voxtalisib decreased pS6K1 levels and Ki67 expression as revealed by IHC staining. | - |

6. Conclusions
Resistance to current PI3K therapies continues to push the need to expand our understanding of cancer treatment. Very few PI3K inhibitors are approved by the FDA as PI3K inhibitors suffer from many adverse effects, and poor solubility and permeability. However, these issues are addressed via improved PK techniques. Designing new PI3K inhibitors based on variable structural and binding sites (mutant selective inhibitors) could be used to increase selectivity and reduce toxicity for isoform-specific PI3K inhibitors. Targeting other pathways with ERK, EGFR, CDK4/6, SGLT2 inhibitors, anti-estrogen therapies or HDAC as a combinatorial therapy approach could increase the efficacy for PI3K inhibitors. The mechanism of action which includes the synergistic combination of PI3K with mTOR inhibitors must be explored for better targeting of the PI3K pathway. In this context, Yang et al. have already shown that addition of Dactolisib, a dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor or ZSTK474, a pan-PI3K inhibitor, in combination with Temsirolimus, a mTORC1 inhibitor, synergistically inhibited cancer cell growth and overcame cellular resistance to Temsirolimus regardless of PTEN status [426]. Emerging evidence in a study by Tang et al. suggested that a combinatorial approach using dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitors could achieve better anti-cancer outcomes [427]. Other factors that could overcome the challenges to PI3K inhibitors in the clinic include selection of accurate patient population with activating PIK3CA mutations, optimizing the dosing schedules, etc. Another challenge in the clinic is a lack of selective PI3Kγ inhibitors. The biggest issue in developing small-molecule inhibitors against PI3Kγ (member of PI3K class IB) is to obtain inhibitors that have good selectivity for PI3Kγ against other PI3K isoforms as PI3Kγ show high sequence similarity in the conserved ATP-kinase-binding site with class I isoforms, leading to difficulties in developing specific γ inhibitors. Further research is needed to understand whether using a dual or multi-targeted approach inhibiting two or more PI3K enzymes or direct inhibition of PI3Kγ could help to achieve maximal efficacy against these inhibitors [428]. In addition, there are several new P13K drugs such as RIDR-PI-103, B591 and TG-100–115 with limited in vitro and in vivo studies which need to be further explored using PK and PD models so that it could be translated to clinic.
