Project Optimus is a US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) initiative to reform dose selection in oncology drug development. Here, we focus on tumor evolution, a broadly observed phenomenon that invariably leads to therapeutic failure and disease relapse, and its effect on the exposure-response (E-R) relationships of oncology drugs. We propose a greater emphasis on tumor evolution during clinical development to facilitate the selection of optimal doses for molecularly targeted therapies and immunotherapies in oncology.
Optimus 计划是美国食品和药物管理局(FDA)为改革肿瘤药物开发中的剂量选择而提出的一项倡议。在这里,我们重点关注肿瘤进化,这是一种广泛观察到的现象,它不可避免地导致治疗失败和疾病复发,并对肿瘤药物的暴露-反应(E-R)关系产生影响。我们建议在临床开发过程中更加重视肿瘤进化,以促进选择最佳剂量的分子靶向治疗和肿瘤免疫治疗。
