Summary

An ascending dose study in patients with solid tumors to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics and efficacy of APG-1387 in combination with toripalimab. A phase II study of 3 cohorts will be included.

Description

This study will be conducted in two phases. In phase Ib, the safety and efficacy of different dose levels of APG-1387 in combination with 240 mg toripalimab will be explored to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of APG-1387 in combination therapy, both administered as a 30-minute intravenous (IV) infusion. The following proposed doses of APG-1387 are to be evaluated: 20,30, or 12mg (in case no DLT occur in high dose levels, 12mg may be initiated for further exploration to determine RP2D comprehensively.) The Phase II portion, will compromise 3 cohorts of 29-31 patients.

The 3 cohorts will include the following:

  • Colorectal cancer
  • Nasopharyngeal carcinoma
  • Non-small cell lung cancer A Simon's 2-stage design will be used for each of the cohorts in colorectal cancer, nasopharyngeal carcinoma and non-small cell lung cancer. A predefined analysis will be performed in the first stage, and failure to achieve the prespecified efficacy will halt enrollment to avoid futile treatment.

Patients must have recovered to Grade 1 or less from adverse reactions resulting from prior antineoplastic therapy (except alopecia and sensory neuropathy not exceeding Grade 2)
Males, women of childbearing potential (postmenopausal women who must have been postmenopausal for at least 12 months to be considered of non-childbearing potential) and their partners voluntarily use contraception deemed effective by the investigator during treatment and for at least three months after the last dose of study drug
Able to understand and voluntarily sign a written informed consent form, which must be signed prior to the performance of any trial-specified study procedures
Patients must be voluntary and able to complete study procedures and follow-up examinations

Exclusion Criteria

Cytotoxic chemotherapy, radiation therapy, surgery (except minor surgery), anticancer therapy with hormone therapy (except hormone for hypothyroidism or estrogen replacement therapy (ERT)), or any clinical study treatment within 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug; or clinically significant tumor embolism or tumor lysis syndrome (TLS)
Immunotherapy or biologic therapy within 28 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) prior to receiving the first dose of study drug
Patients who have received targeted therapy within 28 days prior to first dose of study drug
Prior treatment with anti PD-1, anti PD-L1, or anti PD-L2 agents (Phase II only)
Use of anti-TNFa therapy within 28 days prior to first dose
Patients have an immunodeficiency diagnosis or are receiving chronic systemic steroid therapy (daily dose of more than 10 mg prednisone equivalent) or any form of immunosuppressive therapy 7 days prior to the first dose of trial treatment
Patients have any active autoimmune disease or a history of autoimmune disease (such as interstitial pneumonia, uveitis, enteritis, hepatitis, hypophysitis, vasculitis, myocarditis, nephritis, hyperthyroidism, decreased thyroid function (can be included if hormone replacement therapy is effective); patients with vitiligo or asthma that has been completely relieved in childhood and does not require any intervention after adulthood can be included, and patients with asthma requiring bronchodilators for medical intervention cannot be included
Patient has an active infection or unexplained fever > 38.5C within 2 weeks prior to the first dose (subjects may be enrolled due to tumor generated fever as judged by the investigator)
Any evidence of a past history of interstitial lung disease, drug-induced interstitial lung disease, radiation pneumonitis requiring steroids, or clinically active interstitial lung disease
Hepatic decompensation
Evidence of any severe or uncontrolled systemic disease; various chronic active infections such as hepatitis B (evidence of hepatitis activity such as HBV-DNA 104 copies/mL or 2000 IU/mL), hepatitis C, and HIV
Any of the following cardiac criteria: Mean QTcB > 470 msec at rest during screening; Any clinically important abnormality in rhythm, conduction, or morphology of the resting electrocardiogram (ECG) (e.g., complete left bundle branch block, third degree heart block, second degree heart block); Congenital long QT syndrome or family history of long QT syndrome
Uncontrolled hypertension (requiring 2 or more medications to control blood pressure); Unstable cardiac pain; Angina pectoris within 3 months of study entry; Congestive heart failure (NYHA class II or higher); Previous myocardial infarction (NSTEMI or STEMI) within 6 months of study entry; Serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring medical attention; Serious hepatic, renal, gastrointestinal, or metabolic disease

Live vaccines include but are not limited to the following: measles, mumps, rubella, varicella/zoster (chicken pox), yellow fever, rabies, Bacille Calmette-Gurin vaccine (BCG) and typhoid. Injectable seasonal influenza vaccines are usually inactivated viral vaccines and are therefore allowed; however, intranasal influenza vaccines (e.g., FluMist) are live attenuated vaccines and are not allowed
