Lung Cancer Clinical Trial
Study of Oral MRT-2359 in Selected Cancer Patients
Summary
This Phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter study is conducted in patients with previously treated selected solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), small cell lung cancer (SCLC), high-grade neuroendocrine cancer of any primary site, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and tumors with L-MYC or N-MYC amplification. Patients receive escalating doses of a GSPT1 molecular glue degrader MRT-2359 to determine safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of MRT-2359. Once the MTD and/or RP2D is identified, additional patients enroll to Phase 2 study, which includes molecular biomarkers stratification or selection, namely mRNA expression or amplification of L-MYC and N-MYC genes.
Full Description
This Phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter, dose escalation and expansion study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD), and preliminary clinical activity of MRT-2359 in patients with previously treated selected solid tumors, including lung cancer (NSCLC and SCLC), high-grade neuroendocrine cancer of any primary site, and DLBCL.
The primary aim of Phase 1 part is safety, tolerability, MTD and/or RP2D of MRT-2359.
The primary aim of Phase 2 part is assessment of preliminary anti-tumor activity of MRT-2359.
Eligibility Criteria
Phase 1 enrollment population:
NSCLC
SCLC
High-grade neuroendocrine cancer of any primary site
Any solid tumors with L-MYC or N-MYC amplification
DLBCL
Phase 2 enrollment population:
Any solid tumors with L-MYC or N-MYC known amplification
NSCLC or SCLC with known L-MYC or N-MYC mRNA expression status (testing will be provided)
Phase 1 and Phase 2 Inclusion Criteria:
Have a selected advanced solid tumor or DLBCL (listed above) for which there are no further standard therapeutic options available
Be age ≥ 18 years and willing to voluntarily complete the informed consent process
A predicted life expectancy of ≥ 3 months and an ECOG performance status ≤ 2
Have measurable disease by RECIST 1.1 (Eisenhauer et al., 2009) in case of solid tumors or Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma (Phase 1 only) (Cheson et al., 2014) in case of DLBCL
Have adequate organ function defined by the selected laboratory parameters
If female of childbearing potential, avoid becoming pregnant and agree to use acceptable methods of contraception after informed consent, throughout the study, and for 90 days after the last dose of MRT-2359
Male of reproductive potential must use an approved methods of contraception from informed consent until 90 days after study discharge
Exclusion Criteria:
Have received prior chemotherapy, definitive radiation, biological cancer therapy or any investigational agent within 21 days before the first dose of study treatment, or have any AEs that have failed to recover to baseline
Have received bisphosphonates or denosumab within 14 days before the first administration of the study drug unless they were given for acute hypercalcemia
Inability to swallow oral medication
