Ivosidenib (AG-120) With Nivolumab in IDH1 Mutant Tumors

Phase II Study of IDH1 Inhibitor Ivosidenib and Nivolumab in IDH1 Mutant Gliomas and Advanced Solid Tumors

In this study, response to treatment and (progression free and overall) survival will be described and safety events of ivosidenib in combination with nivolumab will be summarized in patients with advanced solid tumors (nonresectable or metastatic) or enhancing gliomas.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Glioma; Advanced Solid Tumor; IDH1 Mutation
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: ivosidenib and nivolumab

Detailed Description

This study will describe the safety, response rate, progression free and overall survival, and summarize safety events of ivosidenib in combination with nivolumab in participants with advanced solid tumors (nonresectable or metastatic) or enhancing gliomas. Participants are required to have a histologically consistent diagnosis of IDH1 gene mutated tumor that is not eligible for curative therapy. Enrolled subjects will receive orally administered ivosidenib dosed daily on 28-day cycles and nivolumab will be infused every 28 days. Participants will be assessed at every visit for adverse events starting from the first dose of study treatment. Assessment (CT or MRI) for evaluation of disease response will be conducted every 8 weeks (±7 days) from the first day of treatment cycle 1 and/or at any time when progression of disease is suspected. A Post-Treatment Follow-Up Visit for safety will occur 28 (+/- 5) days after the last dose of study drug.

• Have a history of another primary cancer that is active requiring treatment, progressing or for which the treating investigator believes will make disease assessment unreliable.
• Have evidence of intracranial or intra-tumoral hemorrhage either by MRI or computed tomographic (CT) scan. Participants with resolving post-surgical changes, punctate hemorrhage, or hemosiderin are eligible.
• Underwent major surgery within 4 weeks of Day 1 or have not recovered from post-surgery toxicities.
• Are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Are taking known strong CYP3A4 inducers or sensitive CYP3A4 substrate medications with a narrow therapeutic window (Appendix 0), unless they can be transferred to other medications within ≥5 t1/2 prior to dosing.

• Have a heart-rate corrected QT interval (using Fridericia's formula) (QTcF) (Appendix 0) ≥ 480 ms or other factors that increase the risk of QT prolongation or arrhythmic events (eg, heart failure, hypokalemia, family history of long QT interval syndrome). Bundle branch block and prolonged QTcF interval are permitted with approval of the Medical Monitor.
• Are taking medications that are known to prolong the QT interval (Appendix 0), unless they can be transferred to other medications within ≥ 5 t1/2 prior to dosing or unless the medications can be properly monitored during the study. (If equivalent medication is not available, QTcF should be closely monitored.)
• Have known active hepatitis B (HBV) or hepatitis C (HCV) infections, known positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody results, or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) related illness. Participants with a sustained viral response to HCV treatment or immunity to prior HBV infection will be permitted. Participants with chronic HBV that is adequately suppressed per institutional practice will be permitted.
• Have any other acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition, including recent (within 12 months of Day 1) or active suicidal ideation or behavior, or a laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the treating investigator, would make the participant inappropriate for entry into this study.
• Have known active inflammatory gastrointestinal disease, chronic diarrhea, previous gastric resection or lap band dysphagia, short-gut syndrome, gastroparesis, or other conditions that limit the ingestion or gastrointestinal absorption of drugs administered orally. Gastroesophageal reflux disease under medical treatment is allowed (assuming no drug interaction potential).
