A Phase 1/2A Study of LAM561 in Adult Patients With Advanced Solid Tumours

A Phase 1/2A Dose Escalation Study of LAM561 in Adult Patients With Advanced Solid Tumours Including Malignant Glioma

This is a phase 1/2A, open label, non-randomized study in patients with advanced solid tumours including malignant glioma

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Glioma; Other Solid Tumours
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: LAM561

Detailed Description

This is an open label, non-randomized study in patients with advanced solid tumours including malignant glioma. The study will be performed in two phases - a dose escalation phase following a standard "3+3" design to establish dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and a safe dose of LAM561 followed by two expanded safety cohorts (approximately 10 of whom have malignant glioma and approximately 10 of whom have other advanced solid tumours that are suitable for biopsy) treated at the maximum tolerated dose (MTD). If the MTD is well tolerated in the expanded safety cohorts, that dose becomes the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D). During each dose cohort, at least one week must elapse between the first and subsequent patients receiving treatment with LAM561. Patients may receive palliative localized radiotherapy, if needed (however, this lesion cannot be a target lesion for evaluation of the treatment response).

Safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics and efficacy will be evaluated during the study at pre-defined timepoints

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm	Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Dose Cohort 1; Intervention: LAM561. 7 dose cohorts of up to 6 patients have been performed in the dose escalation phase. The starting dose cohort received 250 mg twice daily.	Drug: LAM561; Patients will receive treatment cycles of 21 days, until any criterion for discontinuation (clinical or radiological progression of disease, clinically unacceptable toxicity, or another "general" discontinuation criterion) is met. Patients are expected to receive between one and 6 cycles of treatment. The treatment period may be extended if clinical benefit is shown. In the event of significant GI toxicity, the treatment schedule may be modified from continuous dosing to an intermittent regime In the case of toxicity, the dose of LAM561 may be reduced or delayed by up to 14 days at the discretion of the Investigator. A maximum of two dose reductions will be permitted per patient. Treatment "holidays" of no more than 14 days are also permitted for reasons other than toxicity.
