CB-839 in Combination With Niraparib in Platinum Resistant BRCA -Wild-type Ovarian Cancer Patients (BRCA)

November 17, 2023 updated by: Rebecca Arend, University of Alabama at Birmingham

Phase 1 Trial of CB-839 in Combination With Niraparib in Platinum Resistant BRCA-wild-type Ovarian Cancer Patients

The purpose of this protocol is to investigate the efficacy of the combination of CB-839 with Niraparib in platinum resistant BRCA wild-type ovarian cancer patients. The primary and secondary objectives are to determine the maximum tolerated dose of CB-839 in combination with Niraparib and to determine the response rate and percentage of participants who remain progression free at 6 months.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Terminated

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Based on the scientific rationale, pre-clinical data, and clinical data available to date, and the need for further treatment options in patients that are platinum resistance that are specifically BRCA wild-type. Only patients carrying wild type BRCA genes will be enrolled in the study. The proposed research tests a new therapeutic strategy for ovarian cancer with a very novel mechanistic target: metabolic dependency of ovarian cancer. Pre-clinical results indicate that both serous and clear cells ovarian cancers have upregulation of Hypoxia Inducible Factors (HIF) HIF1a and Hypoxia Inducible Factors (HIF) HIF2a regulated genes. In addition, cell line models of these tumors display sensitivity to CB-839 in vitro. Ovarian cancers resistant to standard platinum chemotherapy may thus respond to treatment with this glutaminase inhibitor. The majority of patients do not present mutations in BRCA or any other genes of the Fanconi pathway, but their tumors may respond to CB-839, which in turn may lead to genomic instabilities due to nucleotide deprivation; therefore, CB-839 could sensitize the tumors to treatment with Niraparib.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics.

Experimental: Cohort 1: Dose Escalation using Niraparib and CB-839
The first phase will be a 3+3 design, 3 participants will be enrolled in the first cohort with a fixed dose of Niraparib and CB-839, 600 mg. If there are no dose limiting toxicities (DLT), 3 additional participants will be enrolled in the next cohort (CB-839, 800mg). If 1 of the 3 in the first cohort experiences DLT's, then the additional participants will be enrolled in the same cohort (CB-839, 600mg).
Drug: Cohort 1: Dose Escalation
The first 3 participants will be enrolled on a fixed dose of Niraparib and CB-839, 600mg. Participants will be evaluated for DLT's, if there are none, they will be enrolled in the next cohort.
