Combination Study of GSK1120212 With Gemcitabine in Subjects With Solid Tumors

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Leukaemia, Myelocytic, Acute
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT01428427
Lead Sponsor
GlaxoSmithKline
Brief Summary

MEK112111 is a dose-escalation, Phase IB, open-label, single-arm, multi-center study. The primary objective of the study is to determine the recommended dose and regimen for the orally administered MEK inhibitor GSK1120212 dosed in combination with gemcitabine in subjects with solid tumors.

Detailed Description

Subjects will be enrolled using a dose-escalation procedure in which the initial cohort receives a fraction of the GSK1120212 dose that achieved a dose limiting toxicity in a previous study and the recommended dose of gemcitabine. Escalation will proceed until the maximum tolerated doses are identified. These doses will be selected based on emerging safety data. Confirmation of the tolerability of the Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D) will be explored in approximately 12 subjects. Subjects will continue on treatment until treatment discontinuation criteria are met (disease progression, intercurrent illness, adverse event or consent withdrawal).

Exclusion Criteria
  • Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy within 28 days (or 42 days for prior nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to the first dose of GSK1120212.
  • Use of an investigational anti-cancer drug within 28 days or five half-lives, whichever is shorter preceding the first dose of GSK1120212 - as long as a minimum of 14 days has passed between the last dose of the prior investigational anti-cancer drug and the first dose of GSK1120212.
  • History of sensitivity to any of the study medications, or components thereof or a history of drug or other allergy that, in the opinion of the investigator or GSK Medical Monitor, contraindicates their participation.
  • Known immediate or delayed hypersensitivity reaction or idiosyncrasy to drugs chemically related to the study drug, dimethy sulfoxide (DMSO), or excipients (See protocol)
  • Use of a prohibited medication (as defined in protocol) or current use of anticoagulants (e.g. warfarin, heparin, low molecular weight heparin) at therapeutic levels. Low dose (prophylactic) anticoagulants are permitted provided that subject's prothrombin time (PT) and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) meet entry criteria.
  • Gastrointestinal disease predicted to interfere with absorption of an oral drug.
  • History of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) or central serous retinopathy.
  • Visible retinal pathology as assessed by ophthalmologic exam that is considered a risk factor for retinal vein thrombosis.
  • Glaucoma diagnosed within one month prior to study day 1.
  • Intraocular pressure > 21mm Hg as measured by tonography.
  • Symptomatic or untreated leptomeningeal or brain metastases or spinal cord compression. Subjects previously treated for these conditions that are asymptomatic and off corticosteroids for at least two months are permitted. Subjects are not permitted to receive enzyme inducing anti-epileptic drugs (EIAEDs).
  • Unresolved toxicity greater than common terminology criteria for adverse events (CTCAE v4.0) grade 1 from previous anti-cancer therapy.
  • History of acute coronary within the past 24 weeks.
  • QTc interval greater than or equal to 480 mili seconds (msecs).
  • Class II, III, or IV heart failure as defined by the New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification system.
  • Pregnant or lactating female.
  • History of hepatitis B or C. NOTE: Subjects with evidence of cleared hepatitis B infection are permitted [Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg) negative, anti-HBsAg positive and anti Hepatitis B core antigen (HBc) positive.]
