Telik Reports Positive Results From Phase 1 Dose-Escalation Study of TELINTRA Tablets in Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Date:12/8/2007

PALO ALTO, Calif., Dec. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Telik, Inc. (Nasdaq: TELK) announced positive results from the multicenter Phase 1 dose-escalation study of TELINTRA(R) (ezatiostat HCl) Tablets in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that support the initiation of Phase 2 clinical trials. The data were reported at the 49th annual meeting of the American Society of Hematology in Atlanta.

The objectives of the trial were to evaluate the safety and pharmacokinetics of TELINTRA Tablets (also known as TLK199 Tablets), and obtain preliminary indications of efficacy (International Working Group, IWG, 2000 criteria). The trial enrolled 45 patients and included all WHO classifications of MDS. Patients received one of ten dose levels of TELINTRA Tablets taken daily for seven days followed by two weeks of follow-up. Patients could receive planned therapy up to six months (eight cycles) until MDS progression or unacceptable toxicity.

TELINTRA Tablets were well-tolerated and no dose-limiting toxicities were observed. The most common non-hematologic toxicities were mild Grade 1 and 2 nausea, diarrhea and vomiting. Blood concentrations of the active metabolite of TELINTRA Tablets increased with dose levels.

Thirty-nine patients were evaluable for efficacy by objective Hematologic Improvement (HI) criteria. A dose-response curve was observed, with the majority of responses occurring in patients treated at the higher dose levels. Across all doses, neutrophil (HI-N) responses were observed in 21% (4 of 19) patients with neutrophil cytopenias. Seven of 21 patients (33%) with platelet cytopenias had HI-P. Among the 29 patients with erythroid cytopenias, HI-E was observed in six patients (21%). Some patients achieved red
