Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the safety of prexasertib in combination with other anti-cancer drugs (cisplatin or cetuximab) and radiation therapy in participants with locally advanced head and neck cancer. The study has two parts (A and B). Participants will only enroll in one part.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1

Detailed Description

The primary purpose of Parts A and B of this study is to determine a recommended dose level of prexasertib (an inhibitor of checkpoint kinase 1[Chk-1]) in combination with cisplatin and radiation therapy (Part A) or cetuximab and radiation therapy (Part B) in participants with locally advanced head and neck cancer.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Prexasertib + Cisplatin + Radiation Therapy (Part A)

Prexasertib administered intravenously (IV) every 14 days over an approximately 49-day treatment period. Cisplatin administered IV every 7 days over an approximately 49-day treatment period. Intensity modulated radiation therapy administered 5 days per week over an approximately 49-day treatment period. Participants may remain on treatment until completion of the treatment period.

Drug: Prexasertib
Administered IV

    Administered IV

    Radiation: Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy

    Experimental: Prexasertib + Cetuximab + Radiation Therapy (Part B)

    Prexasertib administered IV every 14 days over an approximately 56-day treatment period. Cetuximab administered IV every 7 days over an approximately 56-day treatment period. Intensity modulated radiation therapy administered 5 days per week over an approximately 56-day treatment period (starting at Week 2). Participants may remain on treatment until completion of the treatment period.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Part A: Maximum Tolerated Dose of Prexasertib in Combination with Cisplatin and Radiation Therapy [First Dose through Last Dose (Estimated up to 7 Weeks)]

    2. Part B: Maximum Tolerated Dose of Prexasertib in Combination with Cetuximab and Radiation Therapy [First Dose through Last Dose (Estimated up to 8 Weeks)]

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Pharmacokinetics (PK): Maximum Concentration of Prexasertib, Cisplatin and Cetuximab [First Dose through Last Dose (Estimated up to 8 Weeks)]

    2. PK: Area Under the Concentration Curve (AUC) of Prexasertib [First Dose through Last Dose (Estimated up to 8 Weeks)]

    3. Locoregional Control Rate [Baseline through One Year (Estimated as up to 52 Weeks) or Death from Any Cause]
