Belinostat (trade name Beleodaq, previously known as PXD101) is a histone deacetylase inhibitor drug developed by TopoTarget for the treatment of hematological malignancies and solid tumors. [2]
It was approved in July 2014 by the US FDA to treat peripheral T-cell lymphoma. [3]
In 2007 preliminary results were released from the Phase II clinical trial of intravenous belinostat in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel for relapsed ovarian cancer. [4] Final results in late 2009 of a phase II trial for T-cell lymphoma were encouraging. [5] Belinostat has been granted orphan drug and fast track designation by the FDA, [6] and was approved in the US for the use against peripheral T-cell lymphoma on 3 July 2014. [3] It is not approved in Europe as of August 2014 [update] . [7]
The approved pharmaceutical formulation is given intravenously. [8] : 180 Belinostat is primarily metabolized by UGT1A1; the initial dose should be reduced if the recipient is known to be homozygous for the UGT1A1*28 allele. [8] : 179 and 181
