Summary

Open-label dose escalation of Ulixertinib combined with fixed dose of hydroxychloroquine.

Description

This is an open-label Phase I basket trial designed to determine the phase 2 recommended dose of ulixertinib in combination hydroxychloroquine. The recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) will be determined by using a standard 3+3 dose-escalation design with a minimum of 3 evaluable subjects accrued to dose level one and two. Should dose level one be deemed intolerable, enrollment will proceed at dose level 0. The RP2D will be affirmed according to the rules of the 3+3 dose-escalation scheme

they have been amenorrheic for 12 months without an alternative medical cause
The following age-specific requirements apply
Able to provide informed consent and willing to sign an approved consent form that conforms to federal and institutional guidelines
Women ≥ 50 years of age would be considered post-menopausal if they have been amenorrheic for 12 months or more following cessation of all exogenous hormonal treatments, had radiation-induced menopause with last menses >1 year ago, had chemotherapy-induced menopause with last menses >1 year ago, or underwent surgical sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy, bilateral salpingectomy or hysterectomy)
Highly effective contraception for both male subjects and female subjects of child
bearing potential throughout the study and for at least 4 months after last
study treatment administration (see Section 7.6)

Exclusion Criteria

Presence of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC)
Diagnosis of any other malignancy within 2 years prior to study enrollment, except for adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, carcinoma in situ of the breast, bladder or of the cervix, and low-grade (Gleason 6 or below) prostate cancer on surveillance with no plans for treatment intervention (eg, surgery, radiation, or castration) or prostate cancer that has been adequately treated with prostatectomy or radiotherapy and currently with no evidence of disease or symptoms is allowed
Subject has received systemic antineoplastic therapy (including unconjugated therapeutic antibodies and toxin immunoconjugates) or any investigational therapy ≤ 14 days or within 5 half-lives prior to starting study treatment, whichever is shorter
Known brain metastases or cranial epidural disease
Subject has received radiotherapy ≤ 14 days prior to the first dose of study treatment. Localized radiation therapy for the treatment of symptomatic bone metastasis is allowed during that timeframe
\--Note: Brain metastases or cranial epidural disease adequately treated with
Subjects who have undergone major surgery ≤ 3 weeks prior to starting study drug or who have not fully recovered from major surgery
radiotherapy and/or surgery and stable for at least 4 weeks before the first
dose of study treatment will be allowed on trial. Subjects must be
neurologically asymptomatic and without corticosteroid treatment at the time
of first dose of study treatment
History or current evidence of retinal vein occlusion (RVO) or current risk factors for RVO (e.g. uncontrolled glaucoma or ocular hypertension, history of hyperviscosity or hypercoagulability syndromes)
Current evidence of uncontrolled, significant intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, the following conditions
Cardiovascular disorders
Congestive heart failure New York Heart Association Class 3 or 4, unstable angina pectoris, serious cardiac arrhythmias
Stroke (including transient ischemic attack [TIA]), myocardial infarction (MI), or other ischemic events, or thromboembolic event (eg, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism) within 3 months before first dose
QTc prolongation defined as a QTcF > 500 ms
History of seizures
Impairment of gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal disease (e.g., ulcerative disease, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome, or small bowel resection under the judgment of the PI may impair absorption of study drugs)
Any other condition that would, in the Investigator's judgment, contraindicate the patient's participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns or compliance with clinical study procedures, e.g., infection/inflammation, intestinal obstruction, unable to swallow medication.(patients may not receive drug through a feeding tube), social/ psychological issues, etc
\--Note: Patients on effective antiretroviral therapy with an undetectable
viral load within 6 months of the anticipated start of treatment are eligible
for this trial
Active infection including tuberculosis (clinical evaluation that includes clinical history, physical examination, radiographic findings, and TB testing in line with local practice), hepatitis B (known positive HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) result), or hepatitis C
Known HIV infection with a detectable viral load within 6 months of the anticipated
\--Note: Patients with a past or resolved HBV infection (defined as the
presence of hepatitis B core antibody [anti-HBc] and absence of HBsAg) are
start of treatment
eligible. Patients positive for hepatitis C (HCV) antibody are eligible only
if polymerase chain reaction is negative for HCV RNA
Medical, psychiatric, cognitive or other conditions that may compromise the patient's ability to understand the patient information, give informed consent, comply with the study protocol or complete the study
Subjects taking prohibited medications as described in Section 6.4. A washout period of prohibited medications for a period of at least 5 half-lives or as clinically indicated should occur prior to the start of treatment
