Study Summary

This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of Relacorilant in combination with Pembrolizumab for Patients with Adrenocortical Carcinoma which Produces Too Much Stress Hormone (Cortisol).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed ACC (advanced unresectable and/ormetastatic)
  • Measurable disease based upon RECIST v1.1 as determined by the Investigator.
  • Documented GC excess (too much cortisol).
  • For patients who have received mitotane within 3 months prior to screening, mitotanelevels must be <4 mg/L at screening.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤2.
  • Adequate organ and bone marrow function (determined through blood and urine tests)
  • Negative pregnancy test for patients of childbearing potential at the Screening andevery 6 weeks (+ or - 7 days) in female patients of childbearing potential.

Exclusion

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to enrollment. If the participant underwent majorsurgery, they must have recovered adequately prior to starting study treatment.
  • Have received and responded (complete response [CR] or partial response [PR]) to priortreatment with any prior checkpoint inhibitor or any other agents targeting T-cellstimulation pathways
  • Taking a concomitant medication that is a strong Cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) inducer,or that is a substrate of CYP3A with a narrow therapeutic index
  • Known untreated parenchymal brain metastasis or have uncontrolled central nervoussystem (CNS) metastases. Patients must not require steroids and must be neurologicallystable without corticosteroids for a minimum of 3 weeks prior to the commencement ofthe study. Patients with neurologic symptoms must undergo a CT/MRI to rule out occultCNS metastases.
  • Requirement for chronic systemic GC treatment, such as active autoimmune diseaserequiring systemic treatment (corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive medication)
  • Patients requiring inhaled glucocorticoids but have no other alternative treatmentoption if their condition deteriorates during the study.
  • Clinically relevant toxicity from prior systemic cytotoxic therapies or radiotherapythat in the opinion of the Investigator has not resolved to NCI-CTCAE v5.0 Grade 1 orless prior to the first dose of relacorilant.
  • Treated with the following prior to the first dose of relacorilant:
  1. Any investigational product, systemic anticancer therapy, or radiation therapywithin 21 days
  2. Antibodies or anticancer vaccines within 60 days
  3. Mifepristone or other GR antagonists within 5 half-lives of these medications
  4. Adrenostatic medications within 5 half-lives of these medications
  • History of severe hypersensitivity to another monoclonal antibody
  • Other concurrent cancer or a history of another invasive malignancy within the last 3years that has a likelihood of recurrence of >30% within the next 5 years. Adequatelytreated basal and squamous skin cancers, ductal carcinoma in situ, cervical cancer,prostate cancer, non-muscle invasive urothelial cancer or other tumors curativelytreated with no evidence of disease are permissible.
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or current chronic/active infection with hepatitisC virus or hepatitis B virus including: Chronic or active hepatitis B as diagnosed byserologic tests. In equivocal cases, hepatitis B or C polymerase chain reaction may beperformed and must be negative for enrollment.
  • Clinically significant uncontrolled condition(s) or a condition which, in the opinionof the Investigator, may confound the results of the trial or interfere with thepatient's participation, including but not limited to:
  1. Unstable angina pectoris, angioplasty, cardiac stenting, or myocardial infarction 3 months before study entry.
  2. Active infection that requires parenteral antibiotics.
  3. Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere withcooperation with the requirements of the trial.

Study Design

Total Participants: 15
Treatment Group(s): 2
Primary Treatment: Relacorilant
Phase: 1
Study Start date:
September 30, 2020
Estimated Completion Date:
January 12, 2024

Study Description

Relacorilant is a small molecule antagonist of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR).

The goal of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of relacorilant when given in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) which produces too much stress hormone (cortisol). Too much stress hormone (cortisol) is also called glucocorticoid (GC) excess.

Eligible patients are those with advanced ACC that produces too much cortisol.

Patients will receive treatment until progressive disease (PD) (per RECIST v1.1) is confirmed, experience unmanageable toxicity, or until other treatment discontinuation criteria are met. All patients will be followed for documentation of disease progression, survival information (i.e., date and cause of death) and subsequent treatment.
