Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Solid Tumor, Adult
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT03520075
Lead Sponsor
Taiho Oncology, Inc.
Brief Summary

This study is a first-in-human, open-label, multicenter, Phase 1-2 study to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary clinical activity of ASTX029 administered orally to participants with advanced solid malignancies who are not candidates for approved or available therapies.

Detailed Description

ASTX029 is a synthetic small molecule inhibitor of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs) 1/2. ASTX029 has not been previously evaluated in human participants. The Phase 1 portion of this study will assess safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose, the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), and the recommended dosing regimen of ASTX029 administered orally. The Phase 2 portion will assess preliminary clinical activity in tumors characterized by gene aberrations in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal pathway that may confer sensitivity to ASTX029.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Phase 1: Number of Participants With Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)Cycle 1 (cycle length = 21 days)

DLTs were defined as adverse events (AEs) graded by National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.03 criteria that occurred during the first cycle of treatment and represented any 1 of the following: grade 4 thrombocytopenia of any duration; ≥grade 3 hematologic toxicity with complications (e.g., grade 3 thrombocytopenia with bleeding or transfusion requirement); febrile neutropenia of any duration or grade 4 neutropenia of 5 days or more duration; liver-associated abnormalities; ≥grade 2 eye disorders; symptomatic grade 2 cutaneous toxicities (including skin rash); any other ≥grade 3 nonhematologic AE except grade 3 nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea; Any event that, in the opinion of the Data and Safety Review Committee (DSRC), would suggest that further dose escalation would put subjects at unacceptable risk.

Phase 1: Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)From first dose of study drug up to 30 days after last dose (Up to 74 months)

An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not considered drug related. TEAEs are defined as events that first occurred or worsened on or after the date of the first dose of study treatment until 30 days after the last dose of study treatment or until the start of a posttreatment alternative anti-cancer treatment, whichever occurs first, with the following exceptions: events that occurred after 30 days beyond the last dose of study treatment or the start of a posttreatment alternative anti-cancer treatment will also be considered treatment-emergent if the events are both serious and related to the study treatment.

Phase 2: Objective Response Rate (ORR) as Assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1Every 2 cycles for the first 4 cycles and then every 4 cycles thereafter until disease progression (Up to 74 months)

The ORR was calculated as the number of evaluable participants whose best response was complete response (CR) or partial response (PR), divided by the total number of participants evaluable for ORR analysis. CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or nontarget) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 millimeters (mm). PR was defined as at least a 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Percentages were rounded off to the nearest single decimal place

As per planned analysis, data for participants from Part A (Dose Escalation) and Part B (Expansion) were combined for Cohort 11 (200 mg). 2 participants who received 200 and 280 mg respectively, in C1D1, received 120 mg in C2D1 and hence counted in Cohort 10. 1 participant who received 280 mg in C1D1, received 200 mg in C2D1 and hence counted in Cohort 11.

The food effect was to be analyzed only for tablet dosage forms. The participants who were administered 80 mg and 120 mg tablets, under both fed and fasted conditions were reported. As 200 mg dose was administered, as tablets, only under fasted conditions, hence food effect was not assessed for 200 mg dose. The statistical comparison between fed and fasted state treatment arm groups of 80 mg and 120 mg doses is reported in this outcome measure for food effect. The 2 participants who received 200 and 280 mg respectively, in C1D1, received 120 mg in C2D1 and hence counted in Cohort 10.

The 90% CI for median OS was provided using the Kaplan-Meier procedure.

Phase 1: Inhibition of Phosphorylated Ribosomal S6 Kinase (pRSK) Protein in Response to ASTX029 Treatment in Tumor Biopsies as Assessed by H Score4 hours post-dose on Day 8 of Cycle 2 (Cycle length = 21 days)

The protein expression level is quantified through the H-score, calculated from staining intensity within the target cell region. H-Score = (3x % of cells with staining graded 3) + (2x % of cells with staining graded 2) + % of cells with staining graded 1. H-Score ranges between 0 to 300.

Phase 2: T1/2 of ASTX029Pre-dose on Day 1 of Cycle 1; at 0.5,1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8 hours post-dose on Day 1 of Cycle 1 (Cycle length = 21 days)

Data for T1/2 was collected and analyzed for C1D1 only.

Phase 2: Disease Control RateEvery 2 cycles for the first 4 cycles and then every 4 cycles thereafter until disease progression (Up to 82 months)

DCR was calculated as the number of participants whose best response was CR, PR, or SD, divided by the total number of participants evaluable for DCR analysis. CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or nontarget) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. PR was defined as at least a 30 % decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters. Stable disease was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum diameters while on study.
