Overview

Brief Summary

This phase I/II trial studies the effect of eribulin mesylate and to see how well it works in treating patients with cancer of the urothelium that has spread to nearby tissue (locally advanced) or to other places in the body (metastatic)and kidney dysfunction. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as eribulin mesylate, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Chemotherapy drugs may have different effects in patients who have changes in their kidney function.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To establish whether eribulin mesylate (E7389) can be given safely to patients with moderate and severe renal dysfunction at 1.4 mg/m^2/week (the maximum tolerated dose [MTD] previously defined for patients with normal renal function) on days 1 and 8 of a 21-day cycle. (Phase I) II. To characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of E7389 in patients with moderate and severe renal dysfunction. (Phase I) III. To determine the response rate of patients with advanced urothelial carcinomas to E7389 in the first-line setting. (Phase II) IV. To determine the 6-month, progression-free survival and overall survival of patients with advanced urothelial carcinomas treated with E7389. (Phase II) V. To document the toxicity associated with the administration of E7389 to patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma patients and varying degrees of renal dysfunction. (Phase II) VI. To determine the response rate of patients with advanced urothelial carcinomas to E7389 in the setting of progression after prior platinum-based chemotherapy for advanced or recurrent disease, in two cohorts: tubulin-inhibitor treated or tubulin-inhibitor naive. (tubulin inhibitors in common use for urothelial cancer include paclitaxel, docetaxel and vinblastine). (Phase II) (per Amendment 6) VII. To determine the 6-month progression-free survival and overall survival of patients with advanced urothelial carcinomas treated with E7389 after platinum-based therapy for recurrent or advanced disease. (Phase II) (per Amendment 6) VIII. To document the toxicity associated with the administration of E7389 to patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma patients in the second line and later setting. (Phase II) (per Amendment 6) IX. To compare men and women with advanced bladder cancer treated with E7389 with respect to toxicity of E7389 as classified by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version (v)4 for (i) all hematologic toxicities, (ii) all non- hematologic toxicities, and (iii) the most frequently observed toxicities (neutropenia, anemia, leucopenia, infection). (Enrollment to additional females) (per Amendment 11) X. To compare men and women with advanced bladder cancer treated with E7389 with respect to response to E7389 as evidenced by (i) disease control rate (DCR) defined as stable disease (SD)+partial response (PR)+complete response (CR) at 12 weeks, (ii) progression-free survival (PFS), and (iii) overall survival (OS). (Enrollment to additional females) (per Amendment 11) XI. To compare men and women with advanced bladder cancer treated with E7389 with respect to pharmacokinetics of E7389. (Enrollment to additional females) (per Amendment 11) XII. To compare men and women with advanced bladder cancer treated with E7389 with respect to tumoral expression of genes involved in the mechanism of action of E7389, including tubulin isotypes, microtubule-associated protein 4 (MAP4), and stathmin. (Enrollment to additional females) (per Amendment 11)

OUTLINE:

Patients receive eribulin mesylate intravenously (IV) over 1-2 minutes on days 1 and 8. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up monthly for 12 months and then every 3 months for up to 24 months.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patients must have locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer that is not amenable to surgical treatment
  • Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed urothelial tract carcinoma
  • Patients must have measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as \>= 20 mm with conventional techniques or as \>= 10 mm with spiral computed tomography (CT) scan
  • All patients may have received up to two prior lines of chemotherapy for recurrent/advanced disease
  • Patients must have received at least one platinum-based chemotherapy for recurrent/advanced disease; recurrent disease is defined as having recurred after definitive therapy and advanced disease is defined as T4 and/or N2 and/or M1; in addition, for completion of Cohort #2, patients must also have received a tubulin inhibitor as part of their therapy for urothelial cancer; for purposes of this evaluation, treatment with chemotherapy regimens where carboplatin or similar is substituted for cisplatin or where a taxane is added or removed will be considered the same regimen; tubulin inhibitors in common use include paclitaxel, docetaxel, and vinblastine; the exception to this requirement applies to women
  • Women with and without prior therapy are also eligible; priority will be given to those who consent to participating in the pharmacokinetic studies
  • Life expectancy of greater than 6 months
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-2 and Karnofsky \>= 60%
  • Absolute neutrophil count \>= 1,000/mcL
  • Platelets \>= 100,000/mcL

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents
  • Patients with brain metastasis that are unstable (i.e. presenting with neurologic symptoms that progress or require increasing doses of steroids within a 4-week period) or are untreated (i.e. not radiated) should be excluded
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
  • Pregnant women are excluded from this study because E7389 Halichondrin analog is tubulin inhibitor agent with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects; because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with E7389 Halichondrin analog, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with E7389
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with E7389 Halichondrin analog; HIV-positive patients with CD4+ =\< 500/mm3 are ineligible because they are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy; appropriate studies will be undertaken in this group of patients when indicated
  • Prior therapy with E7389 Halichondrin analog (eribulin)
