ABSTRACT Background Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) carries a poor prognosis with a median survival of less than 12 months. Key molecular features include histone H3 mutation (K27M) and AKT pathway dysregulation. There is currently no curative treatment. Methods This is a Phase I study of vorinostat and temsirolimus in newly diagnosed (Stratum 1) and progressive (Stratum 2) DIPG (NCT02420613). The primary aims are to determine the safety, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and toxicities. A modified 3 + 3 design was used to establish the MTD, where the first three patients were assigned the first dose level regardless of stratum. Stratum 1 received radiotherapy with vorinostat, followed by up to 10 cycles of vorinostat and temsirolimus. Stratum 2 received up to 12 cycles of vorinostat and temsirolimus. Vorinostat was administered at a fixed dose of 230 mg/m 2 daily on Days 1–8, and temsirolimus was administered on Days 1 and 8 at 25 mg/m 2 (Dose level 1) or 35 mg/m 2 (Dose level 2). Results Six patients were enrolled, three in each stratum. No dose‐limiting toxicity was observed, and most adverse effects were limited to Grades 1 or 2, including fatigue, myelosuppression, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, elevated creatinine, nausea, vomiting, and headache. One patient experienced Grade 3 leukopenia. In the study, the MTD with acceptable toxicity was vorinostat 230 mg/m 2 and temsirolimus 35 mg/m 2 . Conclusions Overall, the combination of temsirolimus and vorinostat is well‐t...
