Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to determine the recommended dose of durvalumab and tremelimumab (immunotherapy drugs) in pediatric patients with advanced solid and hematological cancers and expand in a second phase to test the efficacy of these drugs once this dose is determined.

Detailed Description

This is a first time in pediatrics study primarily designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of durvalumab and durvalumab in combination with tremelimumab at increasing doses in pediatric patients with advanced solid malignancies and hematological malignancies (including lymphomas) and for whom no standard of care treatments exist. Although treatment efficacy is not a primary objective of this study given its early phase nature, the patients screened for this study have no curative options and this study offers the potential of some benefit. The study will also characterize the PK of durvalumab and durvalumab in combination with tremelimumab in children and adolescents and explore potential biological activity and immunogenicity by assessing pharmacodynamics, anti drug antibody (ADA) levels, and anti-tumor activity. The results from this trial will form the basis for decisions for potential future pediatric studies

Arms & Interventions

Durvalumab / Tremelimumab Combination Therapy

Part 1 (dose finding) Durvalumab + tremelimumab Combination Treatment. Durvalumab and tremelimumab are initially administered at dose level 1 and dose escalated based on results from PK modeling and tolerance to determine the RP2D. Both drugs are administered every 4 weeks as intravenous infusions. Tremelimumab is only administered with durvavalumab for 4 doses, from cycles 2-5. (sarcoma, NB and NHL) Part 2 (dose expansion phase) Durvalumab + tremelimumab Combination Treatment. Durvalumab and tremelimumab are administered at the RP2D, every 4 weeks as intravenous infusions. Tremelimumab is only administered with durvalumab for 4 doses, from cycles 1-4. Tremelimumab may be added for 4 doses at time of progressive disease. Cohorts: solid tumors, sarcomas, NHL restricted to PMBCL and ALCL subtypes)

Dose-Finding Phase: Number of Participants With Adverse Events (AE), Serious AE (SAE), AE Leading to Discontinuation of Durvalumab and Tremelimumab, AE of Special Interest (AESI) or AE of Possible Interest (AEPI) Related to Durvalumab and Tremelimumab

Time Frame: From Day 1 up to 15 months

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. SAEs were any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: resulted in death, was life-threatening, required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, was a congenital anomaly/birth defect, was a medically important event. Some AEs and higher-level terms were considered AESI or AEPIs and this list of categories were provided by the patient safety team.

Dose-Expansion Phase Only: Objective Response Rate (ORR)

Time Frame: From first dose of study treatment until death or up to approximately 4 years (clinical DCO of 20 Apr 2023)

ORR as per RECIST 1.1 was defined as the percentage of participants with at least 1 investigator-assessed visit response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) that was subsequently confirmed on another scan not less than 4 weeks after visit observed response. CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions (TLs), any pathological lymph nodes selected as TLs with reduction in short axis to \< 10 millimeter (mm). PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of TLs, with reference to baseline sum of diameters as long as criteria for PD are not met.

Dose-Expansion Phase Only: Duration of Response (DOR)

Time Frame: From first dose of study treatment until death or up to approximately 4 years (clinical DCO of 20 Apr 2023)

Duration of response was the time from the first documentation of CR/PR (which was subsequently confirmed) until the date of documented progression, or death which coincides with the progression free survival (PFS) endpoint. For participants who did not progress following a response, the DOR was censored during the PFS censoring time. It was calculated using Kaplan-Meier technique.

Dose-Expansion Phase Only: Best Objective Response (BOR)

Time Frame: From first dose of study treatment until death or up to approximately 4 years (clinical DCO of 20 Apr 2023)

BOR was calculated based on the overall visit responses from each RECIST 1.1 assessment. Categorization of BOR for solid tumors were based on RECIST 1.1 using the following response categories: CR, PR, stable disease (SD), progression of disease (PD), and not evaluable (NE). CR: disappearance of all TLs. Any pathological lymph nodes selected as TLs had a reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. PR: 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of TLs. SD: Neither sufficient decrease in sum of diameters to qualify for PR nor sufficient increased to qualify for PD. PD: \>= 20 % increase in the sum of diameters to TLs and an increase of \>= 5 mm. NE: Only relevant if any of the TLs were not assessed or NE or had a lesion intervention at visit. Non-CR/Non-PD: Persistence of 1+ non-target lesion (s). Non-CR/non-PD was relevant to participants who did not have measurable disease at baseline.

Dose-Expansion Phase Only: Disease Control Rate (DCR)

Time Frame: At 16 and 24 Weeks

DCR was defined as the percentage of participants who achieved a BOR of unconfirmed CR or PR, respectively, or who had SD. CR was defined as disappearance of all TLs, any pathological lymph nodes selected as TLs with reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of TLs, with reference to baseline sum of diameters as long as criteria for PD are not met. SD: Neither sufficient decrease in sum of diameters to qualify for PR nor sufficient increased to qualify for PD.

Dose-Expansion Phase Only: PFS

Time Frame: From first dose of study treatment until death or up to approximately 4 years (clinical DCO of 20 Apr 2023)

PFS as per RECIST 1.1 was defined as the time from the date of first dose of study treatment until the date of objective disease progression or death by any cause in the absence of progression, regardless of whether the participant withdrew from study therapy or received another anti-cancer therapy prior to progression (date of PFS event or censoring - date of first dose + 1). Confidence interval was calculated using Kaplan-Meier technique.

Dose-Expansion Phase Only: Overall Survival (OS)

Time Frame: From first dose of study treatment until death or up to approximately 4 years (clinical DCO of 20 Apr 2023)

OS was defined as the time from the date of first dose of study treatment until death due to any cause regardless of whether the patient withdraws from study treatment or received another anti-cancer therapy (i.e date of death or censoring - date of first dose + 1).

Dose-Expansion Phase Only: Survival Rate at 12 Months and 24 Months

Time Frame: At 12 and 24 Weeks

Survival rates were defined as the Kaplan-Meier estimate of OS at 12 and 24 months.
