      P2.06-001 - A Study of MGCD516, a Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) Inhibitor, in Molecularly Selected Patients with NSCLC or Other Advanced Solid Tumors (ID 4109)

      Background:
      MGCD516 (Sitravatinib), is an oral, potent small molecule inhibitor of a closely related spectrum of RTKs including RET, the split RTKs (VEGFR, PDGFR and KIT), TRK family, DDR2, MET and AXL. RTKs inhibited by sitravatinib are genetically altered in NSCLC and other cancers, where they function as oncogenic drivers, promoting cancer development and progression. Alterations in these RTKs have also been implicated in tumor resistance mechanisms. Sitravatinib has demonstrated antitumor activity in nonclinical cancer models harboring genetic alterations of sitravatinib targets, including rearrangement of RET, NTRK, or CHR4q12 amplification. Phase 1 dose escalation has been completed, showing dose proportional increases in exposure. PK and preliminary PD data indicate inhibition of the targets at the 150 mg dose administered orally once per day.

      Methods:
      This phase 1b study includes enrollment of molecularly selected patients (pts) with unresectable or metastatic NSCLC or other advanced solid tumor malignancies in patient cohorts characterized by activating alterations in sitravatinib RTK targets (RET, KDR, PDGFRA, KIT, TRK, DDR2, MET, AXL) or by loss of function mutations in CBL, a negative regulator for MET, AXL and PDGFR/KIT signaling. Pts receive sitravatinib at 150 mg once daily in 21-day cycles. Study endpoints include safety and tolerability, PK/PD, and clinical activity assessed by objective disease response per RECIST 1.1, duration of response and survival. A two stage optimal Simon design of up to 24 pts (8 pts in first stage and 16 pts in second stage) will be applied to those cohorts defined by a specific tumor gene alteration assuming p~0~=0.15 and p~1~=0.35, with an additional expansion of a cohort up to a total of 70 pts in order to provide a more precise estimate of ORR. PD biomarkers, including sMET, sVEGFR2, VEGFA and sAXL, are being explored in plasma samples for prognostic potential and possible relationship with clinical outcome. The study is open for enrollment, and recruitment is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT02219711

      P2.06-008 - Phase 1/2 Study of Mocetinostat and Durvalumab (MEDI4736) in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors and Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) (ID 5521)

      Background:
      Immune checkpoint inhibitors produce durable clinical responses in a subset of patients, however strategies are needed to improve clinical efficacy of these agents and overcome innate or acquired resistance to therapy. Growing evidence suggests that tumors evade immune detection through modulation of intrinsic immunogenicity and inhibition of both innate and adaptive anti-tumor immune responses. Mocetinostat, a class I histone deacetylase inhibitor, has multiple potential immunomodulatory features including: 1) induction of tumor associated antigens and major histocompatibility complex Class I and Class II expression on tumor cells, 2) induction of immunogenic cell death via activation and cross-presentation of tumor antigens by antigen presenting cells, 3) enhanced function of T effector cells, and 4) decreased function of immunosuppressive cell subsets including regulatory T cells and myeloid derived suppressor cells. Given these pleiotropic immune activating effects, combination therapy of mocetinostat and PD-L1 blocking mAb, durvalumab, is a rational approach to restoring or enhancing the clinical activity of immune checkpoint blockade in patients with NSCLC.

      Methods:
      This open-label Phase 1/2 study is evaluating the tolerability and clinical activity of mocetinostat in combination with durvalumab. Secondary objectives include pharmacokinetics, incidence of anti-drug antibodies, and changes in tumor PD-L1 expression. Exploratory objectives evaluate changes in circulating and tumor cell PD-L1, circulating and tumor infiltrating immune cell populations and cytokines. Phase 1 explores increasing doses of mocetinostat administered orally (50, 70, 90 mg three times weekly [TIW]) in combination with durvalumab in patients with advanced solid tumors. The regimen begins with a 7-Day Lead-in Period of mocetinostat single agent TIW followed by the combination regimen with durvalumab (1500 mg intravenously every 28 days). Phase 2 evaluates the clinical activity of mocetinostat and durvalumab, as assessed by Objective Response Rate (ORR) by RECIST 1.1., in patients with NSCLC who have previously received at least one platinum containing doublet chemotherapy regimen for advanced disease. Four population cohorts are included: 1) immunotherapy naïve, no/low PD-L1 expression, 2) immunotherapy naïve, high PD-L1 expression, 3) prior clinical benefit with PD-L1 or PD-1 inhibitor treatment followed by progression, 4) prior treatment with PD-L1 or PD-1 inhibitor with progression within 16 weeks of initiation of treatment. Tumor PD-L1 expression will be determined by the SP263 assay. The sample sizes for the populations are based on two-stage Simon Optimal Designs. Status: Enrollment into the study opened in June 2016. Clinical Trial Information: NCT02805660
