A Study to Find the Maximum Tolerated Dose of the Experimental Combination of the Drugs INC424 and BKM120 in Patients With Primary or Secondary Myelofibrosis
- Registration Number
- NCT01730248
- Lead Sponsor
- Novartis Pharmaceuticals
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this phase Ib clinical trial is to evaluate the safety of the combination of INC424 and BKM120 in the myelofibrosis population and to establish the maximum tolerated dose and or the Recommended Phase II dose of the combination guided by the Bayesian dose escalation model. INC424 has shown efficacy in myelofibrosis (MF) and is approved in the US and EU for the treatment of MF. BKM120 is a PI3K inhibitor. Preclinical and early clinical experience support inhibition of the PI3K/mTOR pathway in MF as aberrant activation of the pathway has been observed in MF models and may contribute to the pathogenesis of the disease.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Incidence of dose limiting toxicities baseline, when the maximum tolerated dose is established. The incidence of dose limiting toxicities will be analyzed to establish the maximum tolerated dose. To assess the maximum tolerated dose, labs and adverse events are monitored.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Laboratory test values including Imaging (electrocardiograms (ECGs), abdominal MRI/CT, ECHO/MUGA Day 1, 2, 5, 8, 11, 18, 22, 25 of cycle 1, weekly in cycle 2, then at every scheduled visit including End of treatment visit ECGs are performed baseline, days 2, 8, 15, 22 of cycle 1 then day 1 from Cycle 2 to cycle 12, and at cycle 12 day 28 and every 12 weeks and end of treatment. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or Cat Scan (CT) performed at baseline, cycle 4 day 1, cycle 7 day 1, cycle 12 day 28, then every 24 weeks , and end of treatment if not done in past 12 weeks. Echocardiography (ECHO) or Multiple Gated Acquisition (MUGA) is performed at baseline and then every 4 cycles until cycle 12, then every 24 weeks therafter or as clinically indicated until Week 96. Hematology is performed at baseline and days 2, 5, 8, 11, 15, 18, 22, 25 of cycle 1, weekly in cycle 2, then on every scheduled visit (D1 of Cycle 3 to 12, at Cycle 12 Day 28 ,then every 12 weeks) and end of treatment.
Maximum plasma concentration time (Tmax) pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 4, 6, 8, 24 hours on days 2 and 8 To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BKM120 alone or in combination with INC424
