Defactinib and VS-6766 for the Treatment of Patients With Metastatic Uveal Melanoma

Official Title

A Phase II Trial of Defactinib (VS-6063) Combined With VS-6766 (CH5126766) in Patients With Metastatic Uveal Melanoma

Brief Summary

      This phase II trial studies the effect of combining defactinib and VS-6766 in treating
      patients with uveal melanoma that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). The
      way cells communicate with one another (different cell signaling pathways) are overactive in
      uveal melanoma tumor cells. Giving defactinib together with VS-6766 may block pathways that
      are important for the growth of uveal melanoma cells, and may result in shrinkage or
      stabilization of the cancer and prolonged time to disease progression and survival.
    

Detailed Description

      PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

      I. To investigate the potential efficacy of the combination of defactinib hydrochloride
      (defactinib [VS-6063]) and Raf/MEK serine/threonine kinase inhibitor RO5126766 (VS-6766) in
      patients with metastatic uveal melanoma.

      SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To assess the effectiveness of defactinib in combination with VS-6766 in patients with
      metastatic uveal melanoma (MUM).

      II. To assess the safety and toxicity profile of the combination of defactinib and VS6766.

      EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

      I. To study the pharmacodynamic profile of defactinib in combination with VS-6766 in
      pre-treatment, on-treatment, and post-treatment tumor biopsies.

      II. To investigate mechanisms of resistance to the combination of defactinib and VS-6766.

      III. To investigate the potential efficacy of circulating cell free deoxyribonucleic acid
      (DNA) for prediction/monitoring.

      OUTLINE:

      Patients receive defactinib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) and VS-6766 PO twice a week (BIW)
      (Monday and Thursday or Tuesday and Friday) for 3 weeks in every cycle. Cycles repeat every
      28 days for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
      Patients undergo tumor biopsy at baseline, after cycle 1 or 2, and post-treatment.

      After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months until death or up
      to 2 years after the last patient is enrolled.

          3. Known untreated or active central nervous system (CNS) metastases (progressing or
             requiring corticosteroids for symptomatic control). Patients with a history of treated
             CNS metastases are eligible, provided they meet all of the following criteria:

               -  Radiographic demonstration of improvement upon the completion of CNS- directed
                  therapy and no evidence of interim progression between the completion of CNS-
                  directed therapy and the baseline disease assessment for at least 28 days.

          5. Ability to become pregnant (or already pregnant or lactating). However, those female
             patients who have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test before enrollment and agree
             to use two medically approved forms of contraception (oral, injected or implanted
             hormonal contraception and condom, have an intra-uterine device and condom, diaphragm
             with spermicidal gel and condom) from time of consent, during the trial and for six
             months afterwards are considered eligible.

          6. Male patients with partners of child-bearing potential (unless they agree to take
             measures not to father children by using one form of medically approved contraception
             [condom plus spermicide] during the trial and for six months afterwards). Men with
             pregnant or lactating partners should be advised to use barrier method contraception
             (for example, condom plus spermicidal gel) to prevent exposure to the fetus or
             neonate.

          7. Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to entry to the study (excluding placement of

             immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

         12. Patients with the inability to swallow oral medications or impaired gastrointestinal
             absorption due to gastrectomy or active inflammatory bowel disease.

         13. History of abdominal fistula, gastro-intestinal perforation, or diverticulitis.

         14. Patients with history of symptomatic cholelithiasis or cholecystitis within six months
             before enrollment.

               1. Patients with history of retinal vein occlusion (RVO), predisposing factors for
                  RVO, including uncontrolled hypertension, uncontrolled diabetes

               2. Patients with history of retinal pathology or evidence of visible retinal
                  pathology that is considered a risk factor for RVO, intraocular pressure > 21 mm
                  Hg as measured by tonometry, or other significant ocular pathology, such as
                  anatomical abnormalities that increase the risk for RVO.

               3. Patients with a history of corneal erosion (instability of corneal epithelium),
                  corneal degeneration, active or recurrent keratitis, and other forms of serious
                  ocular surface inflammatory conditions.

         16. Concurrent congestive heart failure, prior history of class III/ IV cardiac disease
             (New York Heart Association [NYHA]), myocardial infarction within the last 6 months,

         17. Patients exposed to strong CYP3A4 and strong CYP2C9 inhibitors within 7 days prior to
             the first dose. Because the lists of these agents are constantly changing, it is
             important to regularly consult a frequently-updated list such as
             http://medicine.iupui.edu/clinpharm/ddis/table.aspx; medical reference texts such as
             the Physicians' Desk Reference may also provide this information.

         18. Is a participant or plans to participate in another interventional clinical trial,
             whilst taking part in this Phase II study of VS-6766 in combination with VS-

        6063. Participation in an observational trial would be acceptable. 19. Patients with a
        history of hypersensitivity to any of the inactive ingredients
        (hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, mannitol, magnesium stearate) of the investigational
        product. 20. Prior corticosteroids as anti-cancer therapy within a minimum of 14 days of
        first receipt of study drugs. 21. Any other condition which in the Investigator's opinion
        would not make the patient a good candidate for the clinical trial.
