1 Metals in Medicine Consortium Sydney Cancer Centre

2 Clinical Oncology Departments of: Royal Prince Alfred Hospital  Medical Oncology  Radiation Oncology  Surgical Units (urology, melanoma, breast, GI, H&N, cardiothoracic, etc)  Palliative Care  Haematology Concord Hospital Dubbo Hospital

3 SCC Clinical Research Links Pharmaceutical Industry University of Sydney (Med Psychology, Chemistry, Pharmacology) Australian cooperative groups (disease specific) US National Cancer Institute: US cooperative groups (ph III) Cornell University phase II consortium (ph II) CTEP organ dysfunction working group (ph I) Other international cooperative groups

4 Essential Clinical Resources for Developmental Therapeutics Research Clinicians Patients Clinical research staff Regulatory infrastructure Laboratory interface

5 SCC Clinical Capability (Medical Oncology) A/Prof Michael BoyerDr Lisa Horvath Dr Philip BealeProf John Simes Dr Jane Beith Dr Martin Stockler A/Prof Stephen ClarkeDr Anne Sullivan Dr Anne HamiltonProf Martin Tattersall 2000 new patients per year 200 patients on clinical trials per year 40 active protocols at any point in time 12 research staff (nurses / admin) including RT / Concord / Dubbo

6 Key SCC Personnel - Metals in Medicine Dr Philip Beale Director, Med Oncology, CGRH/Dubbo GI, gynae, breast, clin pharm A/Prof Michael Boyer Director, Med Oncology, CSAHS/RPAH lung, GU, H&N A/Prof Stephen Clarke Head, Clinical Pharmacology GI, lung, clin pharm Dr Anne Hamilton Head, Clinical Trials breast, melanoma, gynae, clin pharm

7 End-points of Phase I studies Recommended phase II dose and schedule Human toxicology profile Pharmacokinetics Pharmacodynamics Preliminary efficacy data

8 Role of Clinicians in Developmental Therapeutics Research 1.Protocol Planning (Registration Strategy) 2.Patient Selection and Treatment 3.Translational Laboratory Research Capability (“Bench to Bedside”) 4.Imaging Capability

9 Protocol Planning (Registration strategy) selection of schedule / route of administration selection of starting dose / dose escalation plan selection of monitoring according to knowledge of toxicities in drugs of same class / preclinical data development of strategies for managing side effects / problems as they occur identification of clinical “niches” for drug development knowledge of competing molecules

10 Patient Selection and Treatment identification of appropriate patients informed consent drug administration monitoring and management of efficacy and toxicity determination of relationship of clinical events to the study drug supportive care reporting (regulatory)

11 Translational Research Capability “Bench to Bedside” Concord Laboratory Cell lines In vitro drug activity in sensitive and resistant cell lines Animal (xenografts / immune competent animals) pharmacokinetics (LCMS) pharmacodynamics toxicology anti-tumour activity

12 Translational Research Capability “Bench to Bedside” Human (pretreated cancer / tumour targeted population) pharmacokinetics (LCMS) pharmacodynamics PET labelled compounds (tissue distribution / “real time” PK)
