Study Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of BGB-290 and temozolomide in treating adolescents and young adults with IDH1/2-mutant grade I-IV glioma that is newly diagnosed or has come back. BGB-290 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving BGB-290 and temozolomide may work better in treating adolescents and young adults with IDH1/2-mutant grade I-IV glioma.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Arm A Only: Participants must have histologically confirmed World HealthOrganization (WHO) grade III-IV newly diagnosed IDH1/2-mutant glioma.

  • Arm B Only: WHO grades I-IV recurrent IDH1/2 mutant glioma. Participants in Arm Bmust have magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirming progressive disease; re-biopsyis encouraged, but not required at the time of recurrence for confirmation.

  • Participants with a primary spinal tumor, secondary glioma, or multifocal disease inthe brain, but without evidence of diffuse leptomeningeal spread, are eligible. Incases where there are questions about multifocality versus diffuse leptomeningealspread, the study chair or co-chair must be contacted to make a final decision oneligibility.

  • Participants must have IDH1 or IDH2 mutation associated with neomorphic activity ofthe encoded proteins.

  • Participants must be willing to provide archival formalin-fixed embedded (FFPE) andfrozen tissue specimens for biomarker studies if available.

  • Participants in Arm A must have been treated with maximal safe resection of primarytumor followed by adjuvant radiation therapy (RT). Treatment with TMZ duringradiation is allowed but not required.

  • Participants in Arm B must have been treated with maximal safe resection of tumor.

  • Lower grade glioma (LGG) participants who progressed after initial surgeryalone are eligible. Any number of prior therapies are allowed.

  • High grade glioma (HGG) participants enrolled on Arm B must have been treatedwith a minimum of maximal safe resection of primary tumor followed by adjuvantRT prior to recurrence. Any number of prior therapies are allowed.

  • Participants must have fully recovered from the acute toxic effects of all priorchemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiotherapy prior to entering this study.

  • Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: participants must have received their last dose ofknown myelosuppressive anticancer chemotherapy at least three weeks prior to studyregistration or at least six weeks if nitrosourea.

  • Biologic agent: participants must have recovered from any toxicity related tobiologic agents and received their last dose >= 7 days prior to study registration.

  • For agents that have known adverse events occurring beyond 7 days afteradministration, this period must be extended beyond the time during whichadverse events are known to occur. The duration of this interval should bediscussed with the study chair.

  • For biologic agents that have a prolonged half-life, the appropriate intervalsince last treatment should be discussed with the study chair prior toregistration.

  • Participants in Arm A should begin therapy with TMZ and BGB-290 after completion ofradiation therapy and when all other eligibility criteria are met.

  • For participants in Arm B, patients must not have received radiation therapy within 4 weeks prior to the initiation of study treatment. Post-RT, the diagnosis of trueprogression versus pseudo-progression can be challenging when imaging modalities areexclusively used, and thus an additional resection is encouraged if clinicallyindicated.

  • Corticosteroids: Participants who are receiving dexamethasone must be on a stable ordecreasing dose for at least 1 week prior to registration.

  • The effects of BGB-290 on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reasonand because alkylating agents (such as TMZ) are known to be teratogenic, women ofchild-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonalor barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, for theduration of study participation and 4 months after completion of BGB-290 or TMZadministration. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while sheor her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treatingphysician immediately.

  • Participants must be able to swallow capsules.

  • Participants must have the ability to undergo serial MRI scans (computerizedtomography [CT] cannot substitute for MRI).

  • A legal parent/guardian or patient must be able to understand, and willing to sign,a written informed consent and assent document, as appropriate.

  • Karnofsky >= 50 for participants > 16 years of age and Lansky >= 50 for participants =< 16 years of age. Participants who are unable to walk because of paralysis, butwho are up in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory for the purpose ofassessing the performance score.

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants who are receiving any other investigational agents at any time may notbe enrolled.

  • Participants who have received a PARP inhibitor previously.

  • Participants with active infection requiring antibiotics at time of therapy start.

  • Participants with other diagnosis of malignancy.

  • Use of low-molecular weight heparin is allowed.

  • Participants with known disseminated leptomeningeal disease.

  • Participants with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) are not eligible for thisstudy.

  • Unresolved acute effects of any prior therapy of grade >= 2, except for adverseevents (AEs) not constituting a safety risk by investigator judgement.

  • Use =< 10 days (or =< 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter) prior to day 1 oranticipated need for food or drugs known to be strong or moderate Cytochrome P450,family 3, subfamily A (CYP3A) inhibitors or strong CYP3A inducers.

  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical orbiologic composition to TMZ or pamiparib (BGB-290).

  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or activeinfection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiacarrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliancewith study requirements.

  • Female participants of childbearing potential must not be pregnant orbreast-feeding. Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negativeserum or urine pregnancy test within 7 days of first dose.

Study Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the safety and tolerability of the combination of Poly (ADP-Ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor BGB-290 (BGB-290) and temozolomide (TMZ) in adolescent and young adult (AYA) subjects with IDH1/2-mutant glioma, including the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and characterization of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) in both, newly diagnosed and recurrent treatment arms.

With the completion of ABTC1801, a Phase I/II Study of BGB-290 with Temozolomide in Recurrent Gliomas with IDH1/2 Mutations, a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for adults has been found. This study will advance to evaluate preliminary efficacy using this dose in patients 13-25 years of age.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. Evaluate the preliminary efficacy of BGB-290 and temozolomide in terms of progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in Arm A and B stratified by tumor diagnosis, calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method with a goal of improving the historical high grade glioma progression free survival of 10% and overall survival of 20% at 2 years.

II. Assess the mutational landscape studies via whole-exome sequencing (WES).

III. Assessment of gene expression patterns using ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing (RNAseq).

IV. Assess the methylation profiling with Infinium methylation assays.

V. Assess the oncometabolite profiling via liquid chromatography (LC)/mass spectrometry (MS)-MS.

VI. Assess the intratumoral drug level assessments via LC/MS-MS.

VII. To assess Quality of Life (QOL) and cognitive measures in adolescent and young adult patients with newly diagnosed and recurrent mutant gliomas.

VIII. To assess patient and/or proxy satisfaction with study participation via patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures in the context of race ethnicity and other health related social risks.

IX. To assess on therapy toxicity in the context of race, ethnicity and other health related social risks.

OUTLINE: Participants are assigned to 1 of 2 cohorts. The dose escalation component of the trial has been completed, which included patients ages 13-17 and the study will proceed with enrolling patients ages 13-25 years old onto the expansion cohort and target validation component at the ABTC pre-determined dose.

Arm A: Newly diagnosed IDH1/2-mutant high-grade glioma patients receive PARP inhibitor BGB-290 orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28 and temozolomide PO daily on days 1-21. Courses repeat every 28 days for up to 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Arm B: Recurrent IDH1/2-mutant low-grade or high-grade glioma patients receive PARP inhibitor BGB-290 orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28 and temozolomide PO daily on days 1-21. Courses repeat every 28 days for up to 24 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

COHORT B0: Recurrent IDH1/2-mutant low-grade or high-grade glioma patients receive PARP inhibitor BGB-290 PO for 7 days pre-surgery at the ABTC-determined MTD. After recovery from surgery (14-28 days), the patient will proceed to the efficacy component of the trial.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 5 years. If participants are co-enrolled on the PNOC COMP protocol, participants will be followed under the PNOC COMP protocol until death or withdrawal from study.
