Combination of the Hedgehog Inhibitor, LDE225, With Etoposide and Cisplatin in the First-Line Treatment of Patients With Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (ES-SCLC)
A Phase I Trial of the Combination of the Hedgehog Inhibitor, LDE225, With Etoposide and Cisplatin in the First-Line Treatment of Patients With Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer (ES-SCLC)
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of study drug LDE225 at different dose levels. The investigators will be testing three different dose levels and the dose will depend on when the patients enters the study and which dose is being tested at that time. At the same time, the investigators will also be testing the safety of LDE225 in combination with etoposide and cisplatin.
The investigators also want to learn more about how to manage side effects the patient may develop during chemotherapy. Cancer patients may develop side effects during treatment, such as nausea, pain, fatigue, diarrhea, constipation, or shortness of breath. These symptoms may be due to the cancer itself, or due to treatments. Doctors and nurses often ask patients about their symptoms, because an important part of cancer treatment is to make patients feel as well as possible. If patients do not feel well, the investigators may need to change the way they are treating the patients or prescribe therapies that will decrease their symptoms.
The best way to find out how the patient is feeling is to ask them directly. The investigators are interested in developing new ways to ask patients about how they are feeling, using the Internet. A special new website called STAR ("Symptom Tracking and Reporting for Patients") has been developed to help patients record this information, so that their doctors and nurses can review it during clinic appointments. This study is designed to help us see if STAR is a helpful way for us to keep track of information about patients' symptoms and quality of life. The information from STAR is going to be placed on a very secure Internet site. This will provide your doctor with all of the information needed to determine if this drug combination is safe enough for you and whether to continue it.

- Patients who are receiving treatment with medications known to be moderate and strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4/5 or with drugs metabolized by CYP2B6 or CYP2C9 that have narrow therapeutic index that cannot be discontinued before starting treatment with LDE225. Medications that are strong CYP3A4/5 inhibitors should be discontinued at least 7 days and strong CYP3A/5 inducers should be discontinued for at least 14 days prior to starting treatment with LDE225 Some of these medications are recognized to cause rhabdomyolysis.)
- Patients who are receiving treatment with statins that are known to cause rhabdomyolysis and that cannot be discontinued at least 2 days prior to starting LDE225 treatment.
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
Impaired cardiac function or clinically significant heart disease, including any one of the following: congestive heart failure, angina pectoris within 3 months, acute myocardial infarction within 3 months, QTcF > 450 msec for males and > 470 msec for females on the screening ECG, history of clinically significant ECG abnormalities, family history of prolonged QT-interval syndrome, or other clinically significant heart disease (e.g. congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, history of labile hypertension, or history of poor compliance with an antihypertensive regimen).
- Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women, where pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until the termination of gestation, confirmed by a positive hCG laboratory test (> 5 mIU/mL).

Total abstinence or
- Male or female sterilization or

- Use of oral, injected, or implanted hormonal methods of contraception
- Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS)
Barrier methods of contraception: condom or occlusive cap (diaphragm or cervical/vault caps) with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/vaginal suppository
- Women are considered post-menopausal and not of child bearing potential if they have had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate clinical profile (e.g. age appropriate, history of vasomotor symptoms) or have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy) or tubal ligation at least six weeks prior to initiation of the study. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment is she considered not of child bearing potential.
- Sexually active males must use a condom during intercourse while taking the drug and for 6 months after stopping treatment and should not father a child in this period. A condom is required to be used also by vasectomized men in order to prevent delivery of the drug via seminal fluid.

Experimental: LDE225, Etoposide and Cisplatin
This is a single institution phase I trial of LDE225 combined with etoposide and cisplatin in patients with untreated, newly diagnosed extensive stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC).
LDE225 is an oral drug, which will be taken daily by patients.
Patient self-reporting via STAR will be used in an evaluation of the extent to which patient-reported toxicity influences dose finding in phase I clinical trials.
Specifically, STAR reports will be presented to clinicians in real-time at clinic visits, & clinicians will have an opportunity to either agree or modify the patient self-assessments & use this information in their grading & attribution of toxicities.
|
In a standard, 3 + 3 dose escalation phase, two successive cohorts of ES-SCLC patients will receive LDE225 with etoposide and cisplatin with a dose of 200 mg to be reserved for de-escalation until the MTD is determined.
Cohorts of at least 3 evaluable patients will be treated at each dose level of LDE225 (400 mg daily and 800 mg daily).
One additional dose (200 mg daily) will be reserved for de-escalation.
A minimum of 6 evaluable patients must be treated at the dose declared to be the MTD.
Each cohort will consist of newly enrolled patients.
An estimated total of 6 to 12 patients may be necessary to establish the MTD.
Actual accrual will depend on the dose levels tested and the DLT observed.
Upon completion of a minimum of four and a maximum of six cycles of LDE225 with etoposide and cisplatin, patients in each cohort with at least stable disease will receive maintenance LDE225 until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
