Merestinib monotherapy or in combination for japanese patients with advanced and/or metastatic cancer: A phase 1 study.

ABSTRACT: This phase 1, multi-center, nonrandomized, open-label, dose-escalation study consisted of Part A wherein merestinib 80 or 120 mg (40-mg tablets) was administered orally QD during a 28-day cycle to patients diagnosed with solid tumors and Part B wherein merestinib 80 mg (40-mg tablets) was administered orally QD, and cisplatin 25 mg/m² + gemcitabine 1000 mg/m² administered IV on Day 1 and Day 8 of a 21-day cycle (for a maximum of eight cycles) to patients diagnosed with biliary tract carcinoma (BTC). Nineteen patients were screened and 18 patients were (Part A, n = 10; Part B, n = 8) enrolled in the trial and received treatment. All patients in Parts A and B were from Japan and were within an age range of 43-73 years, with an ECOG PS of 0.1. No dose-limiting toxicity or deaths were experienced in the study. Dose-limiting toxicity equivalent toxicity of Grade 4 platelet count decreased (n = 1) and was observed in Part B. In Part A, treatment-related Grade ≥3 TEAEs were reported in one patient (PT: ALT increased and AST increased), while in Part B, five patients reported treatment-related Grade ≥3 TEAEs with four of the five patients reporting an event of neutrophil count decreased. No complete response was reported in either Part. One patient in Part B reported partial response while four patients in each part reported stable disease. Merestinib monotherapy was concluded to be tolerable in Japanese patients, and its combination with cisplatin and gemcitabine is a tolerable regimen for Japanese patients with BTC. Trial registration: NCT03027284 (ClinicalTrials.gov) registered on 23 January 2017.

Project description:BackgroundThe primary objective of this phase I, open-label trial was to assess safety and tolerability of tremelimumab monotherapy and combination therapy with durvalumab in Japanese patients with advanced cancer. Tremelimumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody against CTLA-4 in clinical trials; durvalumab is a monoclonal antibody against PD-L1 for the treatment of bladder and lung cancer.MethodsIn part 1, tremelimumab 3 or 10 mg/kg was given every 4 weeks (Q4W) for 6 doses, and thereafter every 12 weeks until discontinuation (n = 8); subsequently tremelimumab 10 mg/kg Q4W for 6 doses/Q12W and thereafter until discontinuation was administered in 41 patients with malignant pleural or peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM). In part 2, tremelimumab 10 mg/kg (Q4W for 6 doses followed by Q12W for 3 doses) was given in combination with durvalumab 15 mg/kg (Q4W for 13 doses) in cohort 1 (n = 4). In cohort 2 (n = 6), tremelimumab 1 mg/kg (Q4W for 4 doses) was given in combination with durvalumab 20 mg/kg (Q4W for 4 doses followed by 10 mg/kg Q2W for 22 doses), while in cohort 3 (n = 6), fixed-dose tremelimumab 75 mg Q4W for 4 doses plus durvalumab 1500 mg Q4W for 13 doses was given.ResultsIn part 1, no dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) for tremelimumab 3 or 10 mg/kg (Q4W for 6 doses/Q12W thereafter until discontinuation) were observed. Six (75%) patients reported treatment-related adverse events (trAEs). In the MPM dose-expansion cohort, 38 (92.7%) patients reported trAEs. In part 2, one DLT (Grade 4 myasthenia gravis) was reported for tremelimumab 10 mg/kg (Q4W for 6 doses/Q12W for 3 doses) plus durvalumab 15 mg/kg (Q4W for 13 doses). One DLT (Grade 4 hyperglycemia) was reported for tremelimumab 75 mg (Q4W for 4 doses) plus durvalumab 1500 mg (Q4W for 13 doses). Fourteen (87.5%) patients reported trAEs. Tremelimumab demonstrated low immunogenicity; 1 (16.7%) patient developed antidrug antibodies.ConclusionTremelimumab 10 mg/kg (Q4W/Q12W), tremelimumab 1 mg/kg (Q4W) plus durvalumab 20 mg/kg (Q4W/10 mg/kg Q2W), and fixed-dose tremelimumab 75 mg (Q4W) plus durvalumab 1500 mg (Q4W) were safe and tolerable.ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02141347 (https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT02141347).
