Study Overview

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of carfilzomib, including measuring the amount of the study drug in the blood at certain times following dosing. This study is being done in people with varying degrees of liver function to see if they respond differently to the study drug.

Inclusion Criteria

  • •Relapsed or progressive advanced malignancies (solid tumors or hematologic malignancies)
  • •At least ≥ 2 prior treatment regimens for the underlying malignancy
  • •Confirmed advanced solid tumor or hematologic malignancy
  • •Measurable or evaluable disease
  • •Clinical diagnosis of chronic hepatic impairment that is stable with no acute worsening of liver failure within one month prior to enrollment. Hepatic impairment will be assessed as per National Cancer Institute Organ Dysfunction Working Group Criteria (NCI-ODWG) schema and will fall into one of the following three categories:
  • •Cohort 2 (mild): Bilirubin > 1-1.5 × upper limit of the normal range (ULN) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > ULN, but bilirubin ≤ ULN
  • •Cohort 3 (moderate): ≥ 1.6-3 × ULN; any AST
  • •Cohort 4 (severe): Bilirubin > 3 × ULN; any AST
  • •Exception to Inclusion Criterion #5 for Subjects with Normal Hepatic Function:
  • •All subjects enrolled with normal hepatic function (N=10) must meet all inclusion criteria as outlined with the exception of Inclusion Criterion
  • •#5, which should be substituted with the following criterion to be enrolled into the study:
  • •Cohort 1 (normal hepatic function): Bilirubin ≤ ULN; AST ≤ ULN
  • •Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status 0-2
  • •Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 40%
  • •Adequate renal function (calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min)
  • •Active congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association [NYHA] Class III to IV), symptomatic ischemia, conduction abnormalities uncontrolled by conventional intervention or myocardial infarction within the protocol-specified period prior to enrollment

Exclusion Criteria

  • •Subjects with symptomatic brain metastasis or central nervous system (CNS) disease

  • •Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection (Exception: Subjects with chronic or cleared HBV and HCV infection and stable liver function tests [bilirubin, AST] will be allowed)

Arms & Interventions

Severe Hepatic Impairment

Experimental

(Bilirubin > 3 × ULN; any AST) Participants with severe hepatic impairment (bilirubin > 3 x ULN; any AST) received carfilzomib 20 mg/m² administered by intravenous (IV) infusion on days 1 and 2 of cycle 1, followed by a planned step-up to 27 mg/m² IV on days 8, 9, 15, and 16 of cycle 1. Participants who adequately tolerated dosing at 27 mg/m² in cycle 1 received carfilzomib 56 mg/m² IV on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16 of cycle 2 and subsequent 28-day cycles until confirmed progressive disease (PD), unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, study closure, or death.

Intervention: Carfilzomib (Drug)

Moderate Hepatic Impairment

Experimental

Participants with moderate hepatic impairment (bilirubin > 1.5-3 x ULN, any AST) received carfilzomib 20 mg/m² administered by intravenous (IV) infusion on days 1 and 2 of cycle 1, followed by a planned step-up to 27 mg/m² IV on days 8, 9, 15, and 16 of cycle 1. Participants who adequately tolerated dosing at 27 mg/m² in cycle 1 received carfilzomib 56 mg/m² IV on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16 of cycle 2 and subsequent 28-day cycles until confirmed progressive disease (PD), unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, study closure, or death.

Intervention: Carfilzomib (Drug)

Mild Hepatic Impairment

Experimental

Participants with mild hepatic impairment (bilirubin > 1-1.5 x ULN or AST > ULN, but bilirubin ≤ ULN) received carfilzomib 20 mg/m² administered by intravenous (IV) infusion on days 1 and 2 of cycle 1, followed by a planned step-up to 27 mg/m² IV on days 8, 9, 15, and 16 of cycle 1. Participants who adequately tolerated dosing at 27 mg/m² in cycle 1 received carfilzomib 56 mg/m² IV on days 1, 2, 8, 9, 15, and 16 of cycle 2 and subsequent 28-day cycles until confirmed progressive disease (PD), unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, study closure, or death.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Area Under the Concentration Time Curve From Time Zero to Last Concentration Measured (AUC0-last) of Carfilzomib 27 mg/m²

Time Frame: Cycle 1 day 16, pre-dose, 15 minutes after the start of infusion, immediately (within 2 minutes) before the end of infusion, and at 5, 15, and 30 minutes and 1, 2, and 4 hours after the end of the infusion.

The area under the curve from time zero (defined as the start of carfilzomib infusion) to the last concentration measured (AUC0-last) following intravenous administration of carfilzomib 27 mg/m² on day 16 of cycle 1 was calculated using a non-compartmental approach, from the individual plasma concentration profiles of carfilzomib.
