Brightline-2: A Study to Test Whether Brigimadlin (BI 907828) Helps People With Cancer in the Biliary Tract, Pancreas, Lung or Bladder

Phase 2

Active, not recruiting

• Conditions: Pancreatic Neoplasms; Lung Neoplasms; Solid Tumors; Biliary Tract Cancer; Bladder Cancer
• Interventions: Drug: brigimadlin

• Registration Number: NCT05512377
• Lead Sponsor: Boehringer Ingelheim

Brief Summary

This study is open to adults with advanced cancer in the biliary tract, pancreas, lung, or bladder. This is a study for people for whom previous treatment was not successful or no treatment exists.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 907828 helps people with cancer in the biliary tract, pancreas, lung, or bladder. BI 907828 is a so-called MDM2 inhibitor that is being developed to treat cancer. All participants take BI 907828 as a tablet once every 3 weeks. Participants may continue to take BI 907828 as long as they benefit from treatment and can tolerate it. They visit the study site regularly. At the study site, doctors regularly check the size of the tumour and whether it has spread to other parts of the body. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

Recruitment & Eligibility

• Status: ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING
• Sex: All
• Target Recruitment: 99

Inclusion Criteria

• Diagnosis of a solid tumour which meets the criteria for an open trial cohort:

  • Cohorts 1 and 1-CN (biliary tract adenocarcinoma): Locally advanced or metastatic biliary tract adenocarcinoma (intra- and extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, gallbladder cancer, and ampullary cancer).Patients must have unresectable disease and have received all available conventional therapies known to confer clinical benefit for their disease based on local approved standards; or (in the opinion of the investigator) patients are unlikely to tolerate or derive clinically meaningful benefit from appropriate standard of care therapy.
  • Cohort 2 (pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma): Locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Patients must have unresectable disease and have received all available conventional therapies known to confer clinical benefit for their disease based on local approved standards.
  • Cohort 3 (lung adenocarcinoma): Locally advanced or metastatic lung adenocarcinoma. Patients must have unresectable disease and have received all available conventional therapies known to confer clinical benefit for their disease based on local approved standards.
  • Cohort 4 (urothelial bladder cancer): Locally advanced or metastatic urothelial bladder cancer. Patients must have unresectable disease and have received all available conventional therapies known to confer clinical benefit for their disease based on local approved standards.

• Written pathology report / molecular profiling report indicating Mouse double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) amplification or a copy number ≥8 and tumor protein 53 (TP53) wild-type status. This must have been confirmed with a tissue-based test. A test with liquid biopsy is not accepted.

• Archival tissue (formalin fixed paraffin embedded [FFPE] tumour blocks or slides) must be provided for retrospective confirmation of MDM2 amplification and TP53 status.

• Presence of at least 1 measurable target lesion according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) version 1.1.

• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) of 0 or 1.

• Patient must be willing to donate mandatory blood samples for the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and biomarker analyses

• Adequate organ function

• All toxicities related to previous anti-cancer therapies have resolved to ≤Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade 1 prior to trial treatment administration (except for alopecia and amenorrhea / menstrual disorders which can be of any grade and peripheral neuropathy which must be ≤CTCAE Grade 2).

• Life expectancy ≥3 months at the start of treatment in the opinion of the investigator.

• Provision of signed and dated, written informed consent form (ICF) in accordance with ICH-GCP and local legislation prior to any trial-specific procedures, sampling, or analyses.

• Male or female patients ≥18 years old at the time of signature of the ICF. Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) and men able to father a child must be ready and able to use 2 medically acceptable methods of birth control per ICH M3 (R2) that result in a low failure rate of less than 1% per year when used consistently and correctly beginning at screening, during trial participation, and until 6 months and 12 days after last dose for women and 102 days after last dose for men. A list of contraception methods meeting these criteria is provided in the patient information.

Exclusion Criteria

• Previous administration of brigimadlin (BI 907828) or any other MDM2-p53 or mouse double minute 4 (MDMX, MDM4)-p53 antagonist.
• Active bleeding, significant risk of haemorrhage (e.g. previous severe gastrointestinal bleeding, previous haemorrhagic stroke at any time), or current bleeding disorder (e.g. haemophilia, von Willebrand disease).
• Major surgery (major according to the investigator's assessment) performed within 4 weeks prior to start of trial treatment or planned within 6 months after screening (e.g. hip replacement).
• Clinically significant previous or concomitant malignancies in the opinion of the investigator affecting the efficacy and/or outcome of the trial.
• Patients who must or intend to continue the intake of restricted medications or any drug considered likely to interfere with the safe conduct of the trial.
• Currently enrolled in another investigational device or drug trial.
• Any history of, or concomitant condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would compromise the patient's ability to comply with the trial or interfere with the evaluation of the safety and efficacy of the trial drug.
• Patients not expected to comply with the protocol requirements or not expected to complete the trial as scheduled (e.g. chronic alcohol or drug abuse or any other condition that, in the investigator's opinion, makes the patient an unreliable trial participant).

Further exclusion criteria apply.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Objective response (OR)	Up to 30 months	OR is defined as a best overall response of confirmed complete response (CR) or confirmed partial response (PR) according to RECIST version 1.1.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Duration of objective response (DOR)	Up to 30 months	DOR is defined as the time from first documented confirmed objective response (OR) until the earliest date of disease progression or death among patients with confirmed objective response.
Progression-free survival (PFS)	Up to 30 months	PFS is defined as the time from treatment start until the earliest date of tumour progression according to RECIST version 1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.
Overall survival (OS)	Up to 50 months	OS is defined as the time from treatment start until death from any cause.
Disease control (DC)	Up to 30 months	DC is defined as a best overall response of CR, PR, or stable disease (SD) where best overall response is defined according to RECIST version 1.1.
Change from baseline in European Organisation for Research and Treatment (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ)-C30 physical functioning domain score	Up to 30 months	The QLQ-C30 comprises 30 questions. The QLQ-C30 incorporates both multi-items scales and single-item measures. These include 1 global health status/QoL scale, 5 functional scales, 3 symptoms scales and 6 single items to assess dyspnoea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhoea, and financial difficulties. Each of the multi-item scales includes a different set of items - no item occurs in more than one scale. 28 questions use a 4-point scale (1=not at all to 4=very much) for evaluating function, symptoms and financial difficulties and 2 questions use a 7-point scale (1=very poor to 7=excellent) to evaluate overall health and quality of life.
Occurrence of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) during the on-treatment period	Up to 30 months
Change from baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30 fatigue domain score	Up to 30 months	It is part of QLQ-C30 and uses 4-point scale (1=not at all to 4=very much)
Change from baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30 role functioning domain score	Up to 30 months	It is part of QLQ-C30 and uses 4-point scale (1=not at all to 4=very much)
Change from baseline in EORTC QLQ-BIL21 tiredness domain score	Up to 30 months	The QLQ-BIL21 is specific for the assessment of quality of life in patients with cholangiocarcinoma and cancer of the gallbladder. It consists of 21 questions with a 4-point scale (1=not at all to 4=very much), and the tiredness domain is part of it.
