BERKELEY HEIGHTS, N.J., May 17, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Genta Incorporated (OTCBB:GNTA) today announced that data from clinical trials of the Company's late-stage compounds, Genasense® (oblimersen sodium) Injection and tesetaxel, will be presented at the 2011 annual meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO). The meeting will be held from June 3-7 in Chicago, IL.
Highlights of the presentations include final results, including overall survival and durable response rate, from AGENDA -- the Phase 3 trial of Genasense® in advanced melanoma. In addition, final survival results from a trial in advanced melanoma that combined Genasense® plus temozolomide and Abraxane® will be presented, including data from patients who received Genasense as a 1-hour, twice-weekly, intravenous infusion.
Reports on clinical trials using tesetaxel, the leading oral taxane in clinical development, will also be presented, including Phase 2 studies as 1st-line therapy for patients with hormone-refractory breast cancer and as 2nd-line therapy using a flat (non weight-based) dose in patients with advanced gastric cancer. Additional reports include results of a clinical study that showed no effect of food on tesetaxel pharmacokinetics, which has eliminated overnight fasting requirements prior to dosing.

Genta just updated the Tesetaxel trials and 90% are now recruiting.

Die wollen es wohl richtig spannend machen.
Wer weiss, was da alles drin steht.
So, ihr holden Gewürzkurken, vielerlei Geschlechts, jetzt beruhigen wir uns alle mal wieder und warten den morgigen Tag ab, an dem ohnehin (so wie es aussieht) nichts weltverändert positives verkündet wird und setzen mal eine Runde Hoffnung auf die ASCO am 03.06.2011. Wir müssen alle morgen früh raus (ausser die Hartz4 Empfänger), insofern sage ich jetzte mal: Guts Nächtle in die Runde!

Abstract
PURPOSE: This phase I study was conducted primarily to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of tesetaxel, a novel, orally active, semisynthetic microtubule inhibitor of the taxane class, administered with oral capecitabine to patients with advanced solid tumors.
METHODS: During each 21-day cycle, patients were to receive tesetaxel on Day 1 and capecitabine twice daily on Days 1 through 14. The starting dose was tesetaxel 18 mg/m(2) and capecitabine 1,250 mg/m(2)/day. These doses were increased based on tolerability during the first cycle according to the protocol-specified dose-escalation scheme. Response was evaluated every other treatment cycle according to RECIST. Serial blood samples were collected during the first and second cycles to explore possible pharmacokinetic drug interactions.
RESULTS: Twenty-seven patients were enrolled and treated. The most frequently reported dose-limiting toxicities were neutropenia and febrile neutropenia, with individual patients experiencing dose-limiting stomatitis and diarrhea. The MTD for the treatment regimen was defined as tesetaxel 27 mg/m(2) and capecitabine 2,500 mg/m(2)/day. The most common ≥Grade 3 treatment-related adverse events included leukopenia (44% of patients) and neutropenia (41%). Of 22 evaluable patients, the best overall response was stable disease in 82% and progressive disease in 18%. No meaningful pharmacokinetic drug interactions were apparent.
CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study demonstrate that these two orally active agents can be combined at the individual MTD of each drug with acceptable toxicity. These data further support the continued clinical development of tesetaxel both as a single agent and in combination with other active cancer therapeutics.
