Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a multi center, open-label study to evaluate the drug-drug interaction of LDE225 on the PK of bupropion and warfarin patients with advanced solid tumors. Subjects will receive 800mg daily of LDE225 and two separate doses of either bupropion or warfarin.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: LDE225+Warfarin

At least 15 evaluable patients with advanced solid tumors will be enrolled into the study into the warfarin group.

Drug: LDE225
LDE225 800 mg once daily dosing will begin on Cycle 1 Day 1 of a 28-day cycle.Treatment with LDE225 for both groups will continue until the patient experiences unacceptable toxicity that precludes further treatment, disease progression, withdrawal of consent and/or at the discretion of the investigator.

Drug: Wafarin
15 mg single dose of warfarin (oral tablet) will be given to patients.

Experimental: LDE225+Bupropion

At least 15 evaluable patients with advanced solid tumors will be enrolled into the study into the Bupropion group

Drug: LDE225
LDE225 800 mg once daily dosing will begin on Cycle 1 Day 1 of a 28-day cycle.Treatment with LDE225 for both groups will continue until the patient experiences unacceptable toxicity that precludes further treatment, disease progression, withdrawal of consent and/or at the discretion of the investigator.

Drug: Bupropion
75 mg single dose of bupropion(oral tablet, from an immediate release formulation) will be given to patients

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Pharmacokinetics (PK) parameter AUClast for S- and R-warfarin [7 days]

    Pharmacokinetics of warfarin : Maximum observed plasma concentration after drug administration

  2. PK parameter AUClast for bupropion [7 days]

    Pharmacokinetics bupropion : Maximum observed plasma concentration after drug administration

  3. PK parameter AUCinf for bupropion [7 days]

    Pharmacokinetics of bupropion : Maximum observed plasma concentration after drug administration

  4. PK parameter AUCinf for S- and R-warfarin [7 days]

    Pharmacokinetics of warfarin and bupropion : Maximum observed plasma concentration after drug administration

  5. PK parameter Cmax for S- and R-warfarin [7 days]

    Pharmacokinetics of warfarin : Maximum observed plasma concentration after drug administration

  6. PK parameters Cmax for bupropion [7 days]

    Pharmacokinetics of Bupropion : Maximum observed plasma concentration after drug administration

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. effects of LDE225 on the pharmacodynamic activity of warfarin [7 days]

    INR parameter (International Normalized Ratio) will be assessed to evaluate the pharmacodynamic effect of warfarin.

  2. safety of LDE225 when administered alone and concomitantly with either bupropion or warfarin [28 days cycles]

    safety laboratory parameters, adverse event reports, changes in vital signs, changes in physical examination parameters

  3. evaluate the preliminary evidence of anti-tumor activity of LDE225 in patients with advanced solid tumors [every other cycle]

    CT or MRI imaging parameters to determine the objective response rate according to RECIST 1.1 (Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors)

  4. assess the effect of LDE225 treatment on cardiac function [screening, cycle 4 and EOT]

    ECGs will be performed to determine the effect of LDE on the cardiac function.

  5. effects of LDE225 on the pharmacodynamic activity of warfarin [7 days]

    PT (Prothrombin time) parameter will be assessed to evaluate the pharmacodynamic effect of warfarin.

  6. safety of LDE225 when administered alone and concomitantly with either bupropion or warfarin [28 days cycles]

    safety laboratory parameters

  7. safety of LDE225 when administered alone and concomitantly with either bupropion or warfarin [28 days cycles]

    adverse event reports

  8. safety of LDE225 when administered alone and concomitantly with either bupropion or warfarin [28 days cycles]

    changes in vital signs
