Background: Based on preclinical data showing addition of CDK4/6 inhibitors to gemcitabine was synergistic, ribociclib was evaluated in combination with gemcitabine to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose limiting toxicities (DLT).

Methods: In this single arm multicohort phase I trial, we evaluated the safety and efficacy of ribociclib plus gemcitabine in patients with advanced solid tumors. Patients received gemcitabine intravenously on days 1 and 8 followed by ribociclib days 8-14, with treatment repeated every 3 weeks.
