A Study of Epacadostat in Combination With Pembrolizumab and Chemotherapy in Participants With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors (ECHO-207/KEYNOTE-723)

Registration Number
NCT03085914
Lead Sponsor
Incyte Corporation
Brief Summary

This was an open-label, nonrandomized, Phase 1/2 study designed to determine the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of epacadostat when given in combination with pembrolizumab and 7 different chemotherapy regimens described as Treatment Groups A through G below (see Study Drug and Background Therapies, Dose, and Mode of Administration). Phase 1 consisted of a 3 + 3 + 3 design intended to determine the MTD or PAD of epacadostat when given in combination with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy; efficacy was also explored.

Phase 2 was designed to enroll efficacy expansion cohorts to further evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of epacadostat at the MTD or PAD (as selected in Phase 1) when given in combination with pembrolizumab and chemotherapy. Each efficacy expansion cohort was to enroll participants with 1 specific type of advanced or metastatic solid tumor. Additional cohorts (ie, the mandatory biopsy cohorts) were designed to evaluate changes in the tumor microenvironment in participants with any advanced or metastatic solid tumor who had progressed on previous therapy with a PD-1 or a PD-L1 inhibitor.

No participants were enrolled in any Phase 2 efficacy expansion cohort, or in any Phase 2 mandatory biopsy cohort receiving Treatment A, B, F, or G. Phase 2 mandatory biopsy cohort participants received Treatments C, D, or E (ie, were included in Treatment Groups C, D, or E). Participants were assigned to a treatment group based on the chemotherapy regimen most appropriate for their tumor type.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Phases 1 & 2: Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious TEAEsUp to 21 months

A TEAE is any AE either reported for the first time or worsening of a pre-existing event after first dose of epacadostat, pembrolizumab, or chemotherapy. Serious adverse event is defined as an event that meets 1 of the following criteria: is fatal or life threatening, requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability, incapacity, or a substantial disruption of a person's ability to conduct normal life functions, constitutes a congenital anomaly or birth defect,is a medically important event that may jeopardize the participant or may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent 1 of the outcomes listed above.

Phases 1 and 2: Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)28 days

A DLT was defined as the occurrence of any of the protocol-specified toxicities occurring up to and including Day 28 for the cohorts where mFOLFOX6 and nab-paclitaxel/gemcitabine are administered and Day 21 for all other chemotherapy regimens in Phase 1, except those with a clear alternative explanation (eg, disease progression) or transient (≤ 72 hours) abnormal laboratory values without associated clinically significant signs or symptoms based on investigator determination.

Phases 1 and 2: Objective Response Rate (ORR)Up to Week 18

ORR was defined as the percentage of participants having a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as determined by investigator assessment of radiographic disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1.
