Chemotherapy in Patients With Relapsed Small Cell Lung Cancer in Combination With Allopurinol and MycoPhenolate (CLAMP Trial)

Inclusion Criteria:

Histologically or cytologically confirmed small cell lung cancer that has progressed on platinum-based chemotherapy and anti-PD-L1 (unless contraindicated).
Presence of measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 criteria
At least 18 years of age.
ECOG performance status ≤ 2

Normal bone marrow and organ function as defined below:

Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 K/cumm
Platelets ≥ 100 K/cumm
Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL
Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x IULN
AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x IULN (≤ 5 x IULN for patients with liver metastases)
Creatinine ≤ 1.5 x IULN OR measured or calculated creatinine clearance > 50 mL/min for patients with creatinine levels > 1.5 x IULN
Use of MMF during pregnancy is associated with increased risks of first trimester pregnancy loss and congenital malformations (especially external ear and other facial abnormalities including cleft lip and palate, and anomalies of the distal limbs, heart, esophagus, kidney, and nervous system). For this reason, women of childbearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control, abstinence) prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for 6 weeks after stopping study treatment. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she must inform her treating physician immediately. Men treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of the study, and 90 days after last dose of study treatment. Women must not be breastfeeding.
Ability to understand and willingness to sign an IRB approved written informed consent document

Exclusion Criteria:

History of other malignancies with the exception of: (a) malignancies for which the patient has no evidence of disease at time of screening, and (b) the diagnosis is unlikely to pose a competing mortality risk in the opinion of the treating provider, and (c) for which the patient does not actively require therapy.
Previous intolerance to irinotecan. Treatment with prior irinotecan is allowed if the treatment was not discontinued for treatment related adverse events.
Unable to swallow pills or take study medications orally in accordance with administration schedule outlined
Currently receiving any other investigational agents. A washout period of 21 days from last dose of most recent systemic therapy to C1D1 is necessary.
Patients with symptomatic brain metastases are excluded. Patients with clinically evident CNS hemorrhage are excluded. Patients with brain metastases treated with whole brain radiation therapy, radiosurgery, or surgery are eligible with a washout duration from completion of radiation is 14 days. Patients treated with brain metastases that have responded to systemic therapy alone are eligible if the baseline brain MRI shows no evidence of progression. Patients with asymptomatic untreated brain metastases measuring less than 10 mm are also eligible.
History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to MMF, allopurinol or other agents used in the study.
Diarrheal illnesses such as inflammatory bowel disease that require the use of disease modifying medical therapy or steroids (patients with chronic diarrhea controlled with medications such as loperamide or diphenoxylate/atropine) are eligible if their symptoms are at baseline per discretion of treating physician and PI.
History of active autoimmune disease, including but not limited to systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, vascular thrombosis associated with antiphospholipid syndrome, Wegener's granulomatosis, Sjögren's syndrome, Bell's palsy, Guillain-Barré syndrome, multiple sclerosis, vasculitis, or glomerulonephritis for which the patient requires active immunosuppressive therapy.
Pneumonitis, including organizing pneumonias related to previous treatment requiring active treatment or supplemental oxygen support.
Presence of active infections or patients who are not candidates for immunosuppression with MMF.
Major surgery within 28 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1, or minor surgery/subcutaneous venous access device placement within 7 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1, or elective or planned major surgery to be performed during the course of the clinical trial.
Known clinically significant liver disease, including active viral, alcoholic, or other hepatitis, cirrhosis at a level of Child-Pugh B or worse, cirrhosis (any degree) with a history of hepatic encephalopathy or clinically meaningful ascites resulting from cirrhosis (defined as ascites from cirrhosis requiring diuretics or paracentesis), fatty liver, and inherited liver disease.
Active tuberculosis.
Infections that required the use of parenteral antibiotics within 2 weeks prior to Cycle 1 Day 1, including but not limited to hospitalization for complications of infection, bacteremia, or severe pneumonia.
Unresolved grade 2 or higher toxicities from previous treatment with the exception of fatigue, endocrine AEs that are being managed with hormone replacement, or alopecia.
Use of oral or intravenous (IV) antibiotics within 2 weeks prior to Cycle 1 Day 1
Pregnant and/or breastfeeding. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to C1D1.
Active hepatitis B (chronic or acute) defined as having a positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) test at screening. Note: Patients with past or resolved hepatitis B infection (defined as having a negative HBsAg test and a positive total hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) test are eligible.
Active hepatitis C, unless HCV viral load is undetectable at screening and patient has completed curative antiviral therapy at least 4 weeks prior to enrollment.
Patients known to be HIV positive are ineligible.
SN-38 is metabolized by CYP3A4 enzymes, and therefore patients enrolling to this study should be prohibited from use of medications known to be strong inducers or inhibitors of CYP3A4. Therapy modification should be considered for patients receiving strong CYP3A4 inducers or inhibitors.
