A Study of the GSK MEK Inhibitor GSK1120212 and Everolimus in Cancer Subjects
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended dose and regimen for the orally administered MEK inhibitor GSK1120212 dosed in combination with everolimus in subjects with solid tumors. The escalation part of the study will determine the MTD. The combination will be further explored in the expansion part in subjects with metastatic pancreatic cancer. In addition, subjects with KRAS mutant non-small cell lung cancer will be enrolled.

Detailed Description
MEK112110 is a dose-escalation, open-label study to determine the recommended dose and regimen for the orally administered MEK inhibitor GSK1120212 dosed in combination with everolimus in subjects with solid tumors. This will be accomplished using a dose-escalation procedure starting at low doses of GSK1120212 and everolimus. Dose escalation will continue based on predefined parameters until the maximum tolerated dose is identified. The recommended doses and regimens will be selected based on the safety and pharmacokinetic profiles. The clinical activity of GSK1120212 dosed in combination with everolimus will be explored further in an expansion cohort consisting of 20 subjects with metastatic pancreatic cancer. In addition a substudy will be conducted in 40 subjects with KRAS-mutant non-small cell lung cancer.
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Group I 20 to 30 solid tumor subjects will be dosed with GSK1120212 in combination with everolimus to identify Maximum Tolerated Dose. Subjects will continue on study drug until disease progression or withdraw consent. |
Drug: GSK1120212 plus everolimus
Dose escalation will begin at low doses of GSK1120212 and everolimus, then gradually increase in future cohorts. Dose escalation will continue until a recommended combination dose is identified. The recommended combination dose will be used to treat pancreatic and lung cancer patients in later groups in this study.
|
| Experimental: Group II 20 subjects with pancreatic cancer will receive the recommended dose identified in group I. Subjects will remain on study drug until disease progression or withdrawal from consent. |
Drug: GSK1120212 plus everolimus
Dose escalation will begin at low doses of GSK1120212 and everolimus, then gradually increase in future cohorts. Dose escalation will continue until a recommended combination dose is identified. The recommended combination dose will be used to treat pancreatic and lung cancer patients in later groups in this study.
|
| Experimental: Group III Approximately 40 lung cancer subjects will receive the recommended dose identified in group I. Subjects will remain on study until disease progression or withdrawal of consent. |
Drug: GSK1120212 plus everolimus
Dose escalation will begin at low doses of GSK1120212 and everolimus, then gradually increase in future cohorts. Dose escalation will continue until a recommended combination dose is identified. The recommended combination dose will be used to treat pancreatic and lung cancer patients in later groups in this study.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- AEs and changes in laboratory values and vital signs [6 months]
- Response rate, CR + PR of GSK1120212 and everolimus in KRAS-mutant NSCLC. [6 months]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- GSK1120212 and everolimus PK parameters following repeat-dose (Day 15) administration of GSK1120212 and everolimus, including AUC(0-tau), Ct, Cmax, tmax, and t1/2, data permitting [6 months]
- Tumor response as defined by RECIST 1.1. [6 months]
- CA 19-9 levels compared to radiological response, per RECIST 1.1, over time for each pancreatic cancer subject [6 months]
- Population PK parameters, oral clearance and oral volume of distribution of GSK1120212 and everolimus will be determined. Dependant upon the final compartmental model describing GSK1120212 + everolimus, add. PK may also be estimated. [6 months]
- Clinical benefit response rate CR+PR+SD greater than 4mos [6 months]
- Duration of response [6 months]
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form.
-
Age 18 years old or older and able to swallow oral medication.
-
Performance Status score of 0 or 1 according to the Eastern Cooperative Oncology (ECOG) scale for Dose Escalation Cohort. Subjects with ECOG of 2 can be enrolled for expansion cohort.
-
Tumor Type criteria as listed in the protocol
-
Fasting glucose < 126mg/dL
-
Male subjects must agree to use one of the contraception methods listed in the protocol.
-
A female subject is eligible to participate if she is of non-childbearing potential, and if she is of childbearing potential she must use protocol defined contraception methods.
-
Calcium phosphate product less than or equal to 4.0 mmol2/L2 (50 mg2/dL2)
-
Adequate organ system function as defined below in the protocol.
Exclusion Criteria:
-

-
Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunotherapy within 28 days (or 42 days for prior nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) prior to the first dose of GSK1120212. Chemotherapy regimens given continuously or on a weekly basis with limited potential for delayed toxicity are permitted with approval of a GSK Medical Monitor if dosing of that agent is terminated at least 14 days prior to the first dose of GSK1120212.
-
Use of an investigational anti-cancer drug within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter preceding the first dose of GSK1120212 - as long as a minimum of 14 days has passed between the last dose of the prior investigational anti-cancer drug and the first dose of GSK1120212.
-
