Abstract
MET-inhibitor and EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) combination therapy could overcome acquired MET-mediated osimertinib resistance. We present the final phase Ib TATTON (NCT02143466) analysis (Part B, n = 138/Part D, n = 42) assessing oral savolitinib 600 mg/300 mg once daily (q.d.) + osimertinib 80 mg q.d. in patients with MET-amplified, EGFR-mutated (EGFRm) advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and progression on prior EGFR-TKI. An acceptable safety profile was observed. In Parts B and D, respectively, objective response rates were 33% to 67% and 62%, and median progression-free survival (PFS) was 5.5 to 11.1 months and 9.0 months. Increased antitumor activity may occur with MET copy number ≥10. EGFRm circulating tumor DNA clearance on treatment predicted longer PFS in patients with detectable baseline ctDNA, while acquired resistance mechanisms to osimertinib + savolitinib were mediated by MET, EGFR, or KRAS alterations. SIGNIFICANCE The savolitinib + osimertinib combination represents a promising therapy in patients with MET-amplified/overexpressed, EGFRm advanced NSCLC with disease progression on a prior EGFR-TKI. Acquired resistance mechanisms to this combination include those via MET, EGFR, and KRAS. On-treatment ctDNA dynamics can predict clinical outcomes and may provide an opportunity to inform earlier decision-making. This article is highlighted in the In This Issue feature, p. 1.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Simon's design has been widely used in oncology to conduct single arm phase II trials and to make Go/No-Go development decision. Other authors have proposed designs with decision-making frameworks that include a third, "Consider" outcome. For results in the Consider zone, a final Go/No-Go development decision must still be made; however it is typically a subjective decision based on the totality of data and the development landscape. Under this framework, the probability of continuing development when the candidate therapy is truly ineffective or the probability of stopping development when the candidate therapy is truly effective is undefined. METHODS We use a motivating example to compare end of trial decision-making between Simon's two-stage approach and a Multilevel outcome approach. We present the minimum and maximum development decision error probabilities by varying whether candidates that end in the Consider zone would ultimately continue with development or not. RESULTS The Multilevel approach typically requires fewer patients, but the risk of making an incorrect drug development decision is inflated above the statistically defined Type I and Type II error rates. Compared to a Type I error rate of 20%, the Multilevel trial's maximum probability of moving forward with an ineffective therapy is 22%, 27%, and 36% for Consider zone sizes of 10%, 20%, and 30%, respectively. CONCLUSION The Multilevel approach provides flexibility in interpreting moderate efficacy results. However, the flexibility is accomplished with a lower sample size and corresponding uncertainty in the trial outcome that increases the risk of incorrect drug development decisions.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study reports the safety, tolerability, MTD, recommended phase II dose (RP2D), pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic profile, and preliminary antitumor activity of ceralasertib combined with carboplatin in patients with advanced solid tumors. It also examined exploratory predictive and pharmacodynamic biomarkers. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eligible patients (n = 36) received a fixed dose of carboplatin (AUC5) with escalating doses of ceralasertib (20 mg twice daily to 60 mg once daily) in 21-day cycles. Sequential and concurrent combination dosing schedules were assessed. RESULTS Two ceralasertib MTD dose schedules, 20 mg twice daily on days 4-13 and 40 mg once daily on days 1-2, were tolerated with carboplatin AUC5; the latter was declared the RP2D. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events grade ≥3) were anemia (39%), thrombocytopenia (36%), and neutropenia (25%). Dose-limiting toxicities of grade 4 thrombocytopenia (n = 2; including one grade 4 platelet count decreased) and a combination of grade 4 thrombocytopenia and grade 3 neutropenia occurred in 3 patients. Ceralasertib was quickly absorbed (tmax ∼1 hour), with a terminal plasma half-life of 8-11 hours. Upregulation of pRAD50, indicative of ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) activation, was observed in tumor biopsies during ceralasertib treatment. Two patients with absent or low ATM or SLFN11 protein expression achieved confirmed RECIST v1.1 partial responses. Eighteen of 34 (53%) response-evaluable patients had RECIST v1.1 stable disease. CONCLUSIONS The RP2D for ceralasertib plus carboplatin was established as ceralasertib 40 mg once daily on days 1-2 administered with carboplatin AUC5 every 3 weeks, with pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies confirming pharmacodynamic modulation and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity observed.

Abstract
Aims We investigated savolitinib pharmacokinetics (PK) when administered alone or in combination with rifampicin, itraconazole or famotidine, and investigated midazolam PK when administered with or without savolitinib in healthy males. Methods Savolitinib PK was evaluated before/after: rifampicin (600 mg once daily [QD] for 5 days); itraconazole (200 mg QD for 5 days); a single dose of famotidine (40 mg QD) 2 hours before savolitinib. Midazolam PK was evaluated before/after midazolam (1 mg QD) with or without savolitinib (600 mg QD). Each study enrolled 20, 16, 16 and 14 volunteers, respectively. Plasma samples were collected to determine the effect on PK. Results The geometric mean ratios (GMR, %) (90% confidence intervals [CIs]) for savolitinib alone and in combination for Cmax, AUC respectively, were 45.4 (41.4–49.9), 38.5 (34.2–43.3) in the rifampicin study (n = 18); 105.2 (87.7–126.3), 108.4 (96.3–122.1) in the itraconazole study (n = 16); and 78.8 (67.7–91.7), 87.4 (81.2–94.2) in the famotidine study (n = 16). The GMRs (90% CIs) for midazolam alone and in combination with savolitinib for Cmax, AUC respectively, were 84.1 (70.0–101.0), 96.7 (92.4–101.1) (n = 14). Savolitinib alone or in combination was well tolerated. Conclusions Co‐dosing of rifampicin significantly reduced exposure to savolitinib vs savolitinib alone; co‐dosing of itraconazole or midazolam with savolitinib had no clinically significant effect on savolitinib or midazolam PK, respectively. Co‐dosing of famotidine with savolitinib reduced exposure to savolitinib, although this was not considered clinically meaningful. No new savolitinib‐related safety findings were observed.

Abstract
Abstract
MET-amplification is a resistance mechanism seen in >25% of pts with EGFRm non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and progression on osimertinib (1st/later line), a 3rd gen, irreversible, oral EGFR-TKI. Savolitinib (AZD6094, HMPL-504, volitinib) is an oral, potent and highly selective MET-TKI. In Phase 1b TATTON (NCT02143466) expansion cohorts (Parts B and D), pts with MET-amplified EGFRm advanced NSCLC and progression on a prior EGFR-TKI received osimertinib 80 mg + savolitinib 600/300 mg. Part B was split into cohorts (B1, B2 and B3) by prior therapy and T790M status. Pts in Part D (no prior 3rd gen EGFR-TKI, T790M negative; savolitinib 300 mg) had similar response rates and progression-free survival (PFS) to pts in cohort B2 (analogous cohort; savolitinib 600 mg). In osimertinib-treated pts with EGFRm NSCLC (AURA3, FLAURA), circulating tumor (ct)DNA clearance has been shown to correlate with PFS. We report EGFRm (Ex19del/L858R) ctDNA clearance at two doses of savolitinib + osimertinib 80 mg in TATTON Parts B and D. For this next generation sequencing-based analysis (Resolution Bioscience), ctDNA samples were collected pre-dose, cycle (C) 1 day (D) 1 and at least every 3-8 weeks until discontinuation. Part B pts evaluable for efficacy and with a baseline plus ≥1 longitudinal ctDNA sample at/before C6D1 were included. Data from ctDNA evaluable Part B pts (n=49) identified ctDNA clearance correlates with longer PFS and C3D1/C4D1 as optimal time points for PFS prediction, thus the first 20 pts from Part D with available plasma samples at C1D1 and C4D1 were included. The proportion of pts with detectable EGFRm at baseline was similar across groups (Table). ctDNA clearance was comparable at C3D1/C4D1 for cohort B2 and Part D. ctDNA clearance was similar between the two doses of savolitinib, suggesting efficacy is maintained at the lower dose (300 mg). These data also indicate that ctDNA clearance may be predictive of PFS in EGFRm MET-amplified NSCLC.

Abstract
TPS9119 Background: The toxicity profile of the third-generation EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) osimertinib makes it an attractive backbone for combination with other targeted agents, possibly overcoming acquired resistance mechanisms. Combination with a MET-inhibitor is an intuitive approach as MET-amplification was identified as the most common mechanism of resistance to osimertinib in preliminary ctDNA data from the Phase III FLAURA (15% of pts) and AURA3 (19% of pts) studies. Savolitinib (AZD6094, HMPL-504, volitinib) is an oral, potent and highly selective MET-TKI that had an acceptable safety profile when combined with osimertinib in the Phase Ib TATTON study, providing the basis for this Phase II SAVANNAH study (NCT03778229). Other mechanisms of acquired resistance to osimertinib, including secondary EGFR mutations (e.g. C797S), RAS/RAF activation, and oncogenic gene fusions, provide additional opportunities for developing osimertinib-based combinations. Methods: Eligible pts will have histologically/cytologically confirmed EGFR-mutant NSCLC, and MET+ disease by central FISH, central IHC, or local NGS (retrospectively confirmed by central FISH/IHC). Pts must have documented radiological progression following 1–3 lines of prior therapy (must include osimertinib). Pts will receive osimertinib 80 mg plus weight-based dosing with savolitinib 300 or 600 mg PO QD, in 28-day cycles. The primary objective is efficacy (RECIST 1.1) by overall response rate (ORR) in pts who are MET+ by central FISH. Secondary endpoints include: ORR ( MET+ by central IHC and all pts); progression-free survival, overall survival, duration of response, percent change in tumor size, HRQoL, and EGFR mutation ctDNA clearance ( MET+ by central FISH, central IHC, and all pts); safety, and pharmacokinetics (all pts). Based on the TATTON study, we anticipate enrolling ~172 MET+ pts to include ≥117 pts with MET+ disease by central FISH. Enrolment began in Q1 2019. Ongoing development of complementary trials targeting other osimertinib resistance mechanisms will also be discussed. Clinical trial information: NCT03778229.

Abstract
TPS1112 Background: TNBC comprises ≈15% of invasive breast cancer cases and alterations in BRCA1/ 2 are associated with ≈5% of all BCs. Ola (a poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitor [PARPi]) is approved for treating pts with HER2-negative metastatic BC with a germline BRCA mutation (g BRCAm), demonstrating an improvement in progression-free survival (PFS). Alterations in other non- BRCA1/2 homologous recombination repair (HRR)-related genes (non- BRCA HRRm) may also confer sensitivity to Ola therapy in pts with TNBC. Ola, AZD1775 (a WEE1 checkpoint inhibitor) and AZD6738 (an ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related protein inhibitor) target DNA damage repair and cell cycle regulation. Preclinical studies in TNBC models show synergistic antitumor effects of Ola+AZD1775 and Ola+AZD6738, vs Ola monotherapy supporting the clinical evaluation of these combinations. Methods: VIOLETTE is a global, multicenter, open-label, phase II study (NCT03330847) randomising 1:1:1 450 pts with advanced TNBC to 3 treatment arms: 1) Ola 200 mg bid daily + AZD1775 150 mg bid D1-3, D8-10 q21, 2) Ola 300 mg bid daily + AZD6738 160 mg qd D1-7 q28, or 3) Ola 300 mg bid daily q28. All pts will be stratified by prior platinum exposure. Each treatment arm of ≈150 pts will be comprised of 3 biomarker strata of ≈50 pts each (A: BRCAm; B: non- BRCA HRRm; C: non-HRRm). Centralized tumor molecular testing will be deployed to detect mutation(s) in 15 HRR genes. Eligible pts will have received 1-2 prior lines of chemotherapy for metastatic disease, including an anthracycline or taxane. Exclusion criteria include prior PARPi therapy. The primary endpoint is PFS (each combination vs Ola alone) assessed by blinded, independent central review (RECIST v1.1). Secondary endpoints are objective response rate, duration of response, change in tumor size, and overall survival for comparisons between combinations and for each combination vs Ola alone; drug exposure; and safety and tolerability. The first prespecified futility analysis in Stratum C has met the recruitment target and will be assessed by unblinded review April 2019. Clinical trial information: NCT03330847.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The annual incidence of head and neck cancers is >550,000 cases worldwide and approximately 90% are HNSCC. Treatment for locoregionally advanced (stage III/IV) HNSCC involves primary surgery, radiation and/or chemotherapy. Cancer cells with DDR defects can activate the immune system and immunotherapy (IO) has shown therapeutic benefit in pts with advanced recurrent HNSCC. This study assesses the immunological effects of DDR agents in both tumor tissue and peripheral blood samples to inform optimal combinations with IO therapies. The overall hypothesis is that DDR agents will convert an “immunologically cold” tumor into an “immunologically hot” tumor that is both responsive to IO and improved prognosis.
Objectives: The primary objective is to assess immune activation due to DDR inhibition by monitoring the induction of genes interacting with the immune system and potentially linked to prognosis. The secondary objective is to assess increasing prevalence of tumor infiltrating CD8+ and CD3+ T-cells also linked to prognosis. Exploratory measurements of tumour proliferative and DDR-relevant markers, peripheral T/B/NK and regulatory T cells, key immuno-regulatory cytokines, TCR repertoire, levels of circulating tumour cells and relevant genomic changes in both tumour and circulating tumour DNA will be conducted. Safety and tolerability of the investigational agents is also monitored.
Methods: This ongoing, randomised multi-centre, window of opportunity biomarker study is enrolling patients with newly diagnosed, treatment naïve, HNSCC suitable for surgical resection followed by radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy (NCT03022409). Two oral DDR agents are currently under evaluation as monotherapy: AZD6738 is a potent selective inhibitor of the serine/threonine-specific protein kinase, ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related protein (ATR), and olaparib is a poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor. Eligible pts are randomised to receive a DDR agent for between 10 to 21 days (D), followed by surgery. After surgery, pts do not receive further investigational treatment and attend a follow-up visit at D31. Tumor tissue is collected pre- (archival diagnostic biopsy) and post-treatment (surgical specimen), and evaluated for changes in key biomarkers related to immune response and DNA damage inhibition. If surgery is scheduled between D11-21 (+3D) following three successive days of DDR agent, an on-treatment biopsy is also required between D10-12. Pts undergo a weekly assessment for adverse events, hematology, biochemistry, and electrocardiogram. Plasma samples are also included to characterise the pharmacokinetics of each agent, relative to any biomarker changes observed. Enrolment commenced in December 2017 and the study is designed to permit the addition of treatment arms, including different combinations, sequences and doses.

Abstract
Background Approximately 5%-10% of gastric cancers have a fibroblast growth factor receptor-2 (FGFR2) gene amplification. AZD4547 is a selective FGFR-1, 2, 3 tyrosine kinase inhibitor with potent preclinical activity in FGFR2 amplified gastric adenocarcinoma SNU16 and SGC083 xenograft models. The randomized phase II SHINE study (NCT01457846) investigated whether AZD4547 improves clinical outcome versus paclitaxel as second-line treatment in patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma displaying FGFR2 polysomy or gene amplification detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization. Patients and methods Patients were randomized 3:2 (FGFR2 gene amplification) or 1:1 (FGFR2 polysomy) to AZD4547 or paclitaxel. Patients received AZD4547 80 mg twice daily, orally, on a 2 weeks on/1 week off schedule of a 21-day cycle or intravenous paclitaxel 80 mg/m2 administered weekly on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28-day cycle. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). Safety outcomes were assessed and an exploratory biomarker analysis was undertaken. Results Of 71 patients randomized (AZD4547 n = 41, paclitaxel n = 30), 67 received study treatment (AZD4547 n = 40, paclitaxel n = 27). Among all randomized patients, median PFS was 1.8 months with AZD4547 and 3.5 months with paclitaxel (one-sided P = 0.9581); median follow-up duration for PFS was 1.77 and 2.12 months, respectively. The incidence of adverse events was similar in both treatment arms. Exploratory biomarker analyses revealed marked intratumor heterogeneity of FGFR2 amplification and poor concordance between amplification/polysomy and FGFR2 mRNA expression. Conclusions AZD4547 did not significantly improve PFS versus paclitaxel in gastric cancer FGFR2 amplification/polysomy patients. Considerable intratumor heterogeneity for FGFR2 gene amplification and poor concordance between FGFR2 amplification/polysomy and FGFR2 expression indicates the need for alternative predictive biomarker testing. AZD4547 was generally well tolerated.

Abstract
Purpose: Squamous cell lung cancers (SQCLC) account for 25% of all NSCLCs, yet the prognosis of these patients is poor and treatment options are limited. Amplified FGFR1 is one of the most common oncogenic events in SQCLCs, occurring in approximately 20% of cases. AZD4547 is a potent and selective FGFR1-3 inhibitor with antitumor activity in FGFR1-amplified SQCLC cell lines and patient-derived xenografts.Experimental Design: On the basis of these data, we performed a phase I study of AZD4547 in patients with previously treated stage IV FGFR1-amplified SQCLCs (NCT00979134). FGFR1 amplification (FGFR1:CEP8 ≥ 2) was determined by FISH. The primary endpoint was safety/tolerability. Secondary endpoints included antitumor activity, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and molecular analyses.Results: Fifteen FGFR1-amplified patients were treated. The most common related adverse events (AE) were gastrointestinal and dermatologic. Grade ≥3-related AEs occurred in 3 patients (23%). Thirteen patients were evaluable for radiographic response assessment. The overall response rate was 8% (1 PR). Two of 15 patients (13.3%) were progression-free at 12 weeks, and the median overall survival was 4.9 months. Molecular tests, including next-generation sequencing, gene expression analysis, and FGFR1 immunohistochemistry, showed poor correlation between gene amplification and expression, potential genomic modifiers of efficacy, and heterogeneity in 8p11 amplicon.Conclusions: AZD4547 was tolerable at a dosage of 80 mg oral twice a day, with modest antitumor activity. Detailed molecular studies show that these tumors are heterogeneous, with a range of mutational covariates and stark differences in gene expression of the 8p11 amplicon that likely explain the modest efficacy of FGFR inhibition in this disease.

Abstract
Preclinical and clinical studies were conducted to determine the metabolism and pharmacokinetics of osimertinib and key metabolites AZ5104 and AZ7550. Osimertinib was designed to covalently bind to epidermal growth factor receptors, allowing it to achieve nanomolar cellular potency (Finlay et al., 2014). Covalent binding was observed in incubations of radiolabeled osimertinib with human and rat hepatocytes, human and rat plasma, and human serum albumin. Osimertinib, AZ5104, and AZ7550 were predominantly metabolized by CYP3A. Seven metabolites were detected in human hepatocytes, also observed in rat or dog hepatocytes at similar or higher levels. After oral administration of radiolabeled osimertinib to rats, drug-related material was widely distributed, with the highest radioactivity concentrations measured at 6 hours postdose in most tissues; radioactivity was detectable in 42% of tissues 60 days postdose. Concentrations of [(14)C]-radioactivity in blood were lower than in most tissues. After the administration of a single oral dose of 20 mg of radiolabeled osimertinib to healthy male volunteers, ∼19% of the dose was recovered by 3 days postdose. At 84 days postdose, mean total radioactivity recovery was 14.2% and 67.8% of the dose in urine and feces. The most abundant metabolite identified in feces was AZ5104 (∼6% of dose). Osimertinib accounted for ∼1% of total radioactivity in the plasma of non-small cell lung cancer patients after 22 days of 80-mg osimertinib once-daily treatment; the most abundant circulatory metabolites were AZ7550 and AZ5104 (<10% of total osimertinib-related material). Osimertinib is extensively distributed and metabolized in humans and is eliminated primarily via the fecal route.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The EGFR T790M mutation is the most common mechanism of drug resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors in patients who have lung cancer with an EGFR mutation (EGFR-mutated lung cancer). In preclinical models, the EGFR inhibitor AZD9291 has been shown to be effective against both EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor-sensitizing and T790M resistance mutations. METHODS We administered AZD9291 at doses of 20 to 240 mg once daily in patients with advanced lung cancer who had radiologically documented disease progression after previous treatment with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. The study included dose-escalation cohorts and dose-expansion cohorts. In the expansion cohorts, prestudy tumor biopsies were required for central determination of EGFR T790M status. Patients were assessed for safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy. RESULTS A total of 253 patients were treated. Among 31 patients enrolled in the dose-escalation cohorts, no dose-limiting toxic effects occurred at the doses evaluated. An additional 222 patients were treated in five expansion cohorts. The most common all-cause adverse events were diarrhea, rash, nausea, and decreased appetite. The overall objective tumor response rate was 51% (95% confidence interval [CI], 45 to 58). Among 127 patients with centrally confirmed EGFR T790M who could be evaluated for response, the response rate was 61% (95% CI, 52 to 70). In contrast, among 61 patients without centrally detectable EGFR T790M who could be evaluated for response, the response rate was 21% (95% CI, 12 to 34). The median progression-free survival was 9.6 months (95% CI, 8.3 to not reached) in EGFR T790M-positive patients and 2.8 months (95% CI, 2.1 to 4.3) in EGFR T790M-negative patients. CONCLUSIONS AZD9291 was highly active in patients with lung cancer with the EGFR T790M mutation who had had disease progression during prior therapy with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To establish the maximum tolerated dose, determine safety/tolerability and evaluate the pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of olaparib in combination with cisplatin in patients with advanced solid tumors. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients aged ≥ 18 years with advanced solid tumors, who had progressed on standard treatment, were assigned to a treatment cohort and received oral olaparib [50-200 mg twice daily (bid); 21-day cycle] continuously or intermittently (days 1-5 or 1-10) in combination with cisplatin (60-75 mg/m(2) intravenously) on day 1 of each cycle. RESULTS Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of grade 3 neutropenia (cisplatin 75 mg/m(2) with continuous olaparib 100 mg bid or 200 mg bid; n = 1 each) and grade 3 lipase elevation (cisplatin 75 mg/m(2) with olaparib 100 mg bid days 1-10 or 50 mg bid days 1-5; n = 1 each) were reported. Olaparib and cisplatin doses were subsequently reduced to 50 mg bid days 1-5 and 60 mg/m(2), respectively; no DLTs were reported for patients receiving this regimen. The most frequent grade ≥ 3 adverse events were neutropenia (16.7%), anemia (9.3%) and leucopenia (9.3%). Thirty patients (55.6%) received colony-stimulating factors for hematologic support. The overall objective response rate was 41% for patients with measurable disease, and 43% and 71% among patients with a BRCA1/2 mutation who had ovarian and breast cancer, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Olaparib in combination with cisplatin 75 mg/m(2) was not considered tolerable; intermittent olaparib (50 mg bid, days 1-5) with cisplatin 60 mg/m(2) improved tolerability. Promising antitumor activity in patients with germline BRCA1/2 mutations was observed and warrants further investigation.

Abstract
Dopamine agonists are used as initial treatment in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) to reduce incidence and severity of motor complications. This paradigm is based on long-term studies, allowing "rescue" therapy with levodopa. The present strict monotherapy study (PELMOPET, the acronym for the pergolide-versus-L-dopa-monotherapy-and-positron-emission-tomography trial) evaluated the efficacy and safety of pergolide versus levodopa without levodopa "rescue" medication. This multicenter, double-blind, randomized, 3-year trial compared pergolide monotherapy (n=148) with levodopa monotherapy (n=146) in dopamine-naive patients with early PD (Hoehn and Yahr stage 1-2.5). Primary efficacy measures were clinical efficacy, severity and time to onset of motor complications, and disease progression. During the 3 years, severity of motor complications was significantly lower and time to onset of dyskinesia was significantly delayed in the group receiving pergolide (3.23 mg/day) compared with those receiving levodopa (504 mg/day). However, time to onset of motor complications was not longer in patients receiving pergolide after 3 years. Symptomatic relief (assessed by Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale [UPDRS], UPDRS II, and III, Clinical Global Impressions [CGI] severity, and CGI and Patient Global Impressions [PGI] improvement) was significantly greater in patients receiving levodopa. Adverse events led to discontinuation of therapy in 17.6% of pergolide patients and 9.6% of levodopa patients. This is the first study comparing strict monotherapy with a dopamine agonist versus levodopa in previously untreated early PD. In principle, both levodopa and a dopamine agonist such as pergolide seem to be suitable options as initial PD therapy. The choice remains with the treating physician based on the different efficacy and adverse event profiles.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe the baseline findings and study population of the Schizophrenia Outpatient Health Outcomes (SOHO) Study. METHOD The SOHO study is an ongoing, large, prospective, long-term observational study of schizophrenia treatment in 10 European countries. The study population consists of out-patients who initiate therapy or change to a new antipsychotic. RESULTS A total of 1096 investigators enrolled 10 972 patients. Approximately 60% of patients were men and the mean age was 40 years. Patients treated with clozapine and more than one antipsychotic are more severely ill, patients receiving depot medications have a history of non-compliance, and patients receiving their first antipsychotic for schizophrenia are most likely to receive an atypical agent. CONCLUSION The SOHO study population appears to represent European out-patients with schizophrenia in whom a treatment decision is required. Baseline findings reflect European clinical practice with respect to patients treated with individual antipsychotics.

Abstract
If GH therapy of children with GH deficiency (GHD) has been adequate, body composition should be comparable to that of patients who have undergone normal childhood development and become hypopituitary thereafter. To assess this, body composition was determined in 92 patients with childhood onset (CO) GHD, aged 18-30 yr, who had been treated to final height with GH for 8.98 +/- 4.30 yr and had stopped treatment 1.57 +/- 1.20 yr previously, but who remained GHD (assessed by a GH stimulation test and IGF-I values). These were compared with 35 age-matched GH-naïve hypopituitary patients with adult onset (AO) GHD. Lean body mass, fat mass, and total bone mineral content were assessed by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry and corrected for actual height. CO patients were shorter (CO height, -1.18 +/- 1.16 SD score; AO height, -0.38 +/- 1.12 SD score; P < 0.001) and had lower body mass index (CO, 23.19 +/- 5.76 kg/m(2); AO, 28.9 +/- 6.27 kg/m(2); P < 0.001) than the AO group. Although there were gender differences, within genders CO patients had lower lean body mass, fat mass, and bone mineral content (P < 0.001 in all cases) compared with AO patients. Standard deviation scores for IGF-I (CO female, -9.2 +/- 3.1; AO female, -5.2 +/- 2.6; CO male, -6.4 +/- 2.7; AO male, -3.5 +/- 2.3; P < 0.001 within each gender) and IGFBP-3 (CO female, -3.5 +/- 2.5; AO female, -1.7 +/- 1.5; CO male, -2.8 +/- 2.0; AO male, -1.1 +/- 1.6; P < 0.001 within each gender) were significantly lower in the CO group. These results suggest that patients with CO GHD who were treated to final height suffer a significant maturational deficit despite GH replacement during childhood.

Abstract
The aim of GH replacement therapy in GH-deficient adults is to optimize response with minimum incidence of adverse reactions, but optimal therapy regimens are still to be established. This two-arm parallel study examined effects of two GH dose algorithms in adults with GH deficiency of adult or childhood onset. Patients on low dose (LD; n = 302) received GH at 3 microg/kg per day for 3 months increasing to 6 microg/kg per day for 3 months, and those on conventional dose (CD; n = 293) started on 6 microg/kg per day for 3 months increasing to 12 microg/kg per day for 3 months. The proportion of patients completing therapy was greater for the LD group than the CD group for the first 3 months (93.0% vs. 88.1%; P = 0.037) and overall for the 6 months (90.7% vs. 84.0%; P = 0.013). Both dose groups showed significant increases in lean body mass and decreases in fat mass for all time points. Percent increase in lean body mass was less with LD than CD over the first 3 months (2.43 +/- 4.33 vs. 3.58 +/- 4.69%; P = 0.006) but not overall for the 6-month period (4.38% +/- 5.34% vs. 5.21% +/- 5.99%; P = 0.141). Percent decrease in fat mass was less with LD than CD for the first 3 months (-2.81% +/- 7.81% vs. -5.53% +/- 8.64%; P < 0.001) and overall for the 6-month period (-6.35% +/- 9.42% vs. -9.45% +/- 12.07%; P = 0.006). IGF-I SD score increased less with LD than CD for 0 to 3 and 0 to 6 months, although for IGF-binding protein-3 SD score, there was no significant difference between doses at any time. Arthralgia was the only adverse event that occurred significantly less frequently with LD than with CD. Calculated changes based on gender and onset indicated greater changes in males than females for body composition, but there was little difference in GH-related adverse events between males and females. The lower starting dose with dose titration appeared more favorable, but differences in response between genders and onset of GH deficiency need to be taken into account when setting an individual dose regimen.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Human GH treatment of patients with childhood-onset (CO) growth hormone deficiency (GHD) ceases when they reach final height; this provides an opportunity to retest GH status in all patients before determining whether GH therapy will be required in adult life. At present, the diagnostic approach to these patients is not fully standardized. This study aimed to characterize a large group of previously GH-treated CO GHD patients and establish their GH status. PATIENTS AND METHODS The multinational study included 167 patients diagnosed as GH deficient and treated with hGH to final height during childhood. Mean age was 19.2 years and mean height standard deviation score (SDS) was -1.08. Peak serum GH concentrations were determined in standard GH stimulation tests. IGF-I and IGFBP-3 concentrations were determined at a central laboratory and converted to SDS values by reference to a normal population. RESULTS Using only a peak GH value of less than 3 microg/l (1 mg = 3 U) in stimulation tests as the cut-off, 133 (79.6%) patients would be classed as GH deficient. Using only an IGF-I value less than -2 SDS as the cut-off, 134 (80.2%) patients would be classed as GH deficient. However, by using both criteria there were 120 (71.9%) patients who were definitely severely GH deficient (group 1) and 20 (12.0%) who were not GH deficient (group 2), leaving 14 (8.4%) classed as GH deficient from IGF-I SDS only (group 3) and 13 (7.8%) classed as GH deficient from stimulation test only (group 4). There was no difference between the groups in height SDS or body mass index (BMI), but the GH-deficient patients tended to have been diagnosed at a younger age (group 1, 8.2 +/- 3.9; group 2, 10.0 +/- 4.0; P = 0.052). For patients classed as GH deficient compared with those not GH deficient, the percentage of males was lower (group 1, 64.2%; group 2, 90.0%; P = 0.022) and the percentage with multiple pituitary hormone deficiencies was higher (group 1, 81.7%; group 2, 20.0%; P < 0 .001), with the other two groups being intermediate in each case. Only the group classed as GH deficient by both criteria had a mean IGFBP-3 less than -2 SDS and both IGF-I SDS and IGFBP-3 SDS increased steadily across the four groups. CONCLUSIONS A high percentage (71.9%) of these childhood-onset GH-deficient patients were still GH deficient in adult life and are likely to require further hGH treatment. While 12.0% could be classed as definitely no longer GH deficient, there are some patients who are intermediate (16.2%) and may be classed as GH deficient by one criterion but not the other. When GH stimulation test results and IGF-I concentration are discordant, the IGFBP-3 level does not establish diagnosis and the hGH treatment requirement of such patients remains a dilemma.
