Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study is a dose escalation, and cohort expansion study in subjects with advanced cancer for which no standard therapy exists. Subjects must have received prior treatment for cancer that has not worked, or has stopped working.

Detailed Description

The study will be conducted in two parts. Part A is a dose escalation study to determine a safe and tolerable dose of ASN002 for subjects with relapsed or refractory lymphoma, or advanced solid tumors. Part A will also characterize the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ASN002 through blood sampling. Subjects in Part B will enroll subjects with four types of lymphoma Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), Follicular Lymphoma (FL), Mantle Cell Lymphoma (MCL) and Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). Additional groups of subjects with Myelofibrosis (MF) and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) will be enrolled. Subjects will be treated with the highest safe and tolerable dose determined in Part A of the study to determine preliminary efficacy. Subjects may continue to receive ASN002 for up to 1 year in the absence of severe side effects or disease progression.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Part A: Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of ASN002 [First 28 days]

    The MTD will be determined by evaluating the number of subjects with treatment related dose limiting toxicity. This is the primary endpoint of Part A

  2. Part B: evaluate the overall response rate (number of Complete Responses + Partial Responses) in subjects receiving ASN002 for the treatment of lymphoma, MF and CLL. [First 6 months]

    Change from baseline in the severity of disease, This is the primary endpoint for Part B.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Calculate the pharmacokinetic area under the plasma concentration (AUC) of ASN002 [First 29 days]

    Calculate the amount of ASN002 in the bloodstream

  2. Calculate the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) at steady state. [First 29 days]

    Calculate the maximum amount of ASN002 in the bloodstream

  3. Calculate the terminal elimination rate (T 1/2). [First 29 days]

    Calculate how fast ASN002 leaves the body

Other Outcome Measures

  1. To evaluate the change from baseline in the intensity of Phospho-STAT3 protein found in the blood of patients with lymphoma. [First 29 days]

    Evaluate the effect of ASN002 on tumor biomarkers

  2. To evaluate the change from baseline in the intensity of Phospho-S6 protein found in the blood of patients with lymphoma. [First 29 days]

    Evaluate the effect of ASN002 on biomarkers

  3. To evaluate the change from baseline in the intensity of Phospho-spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) 525/526 protein found in the blood of patients with lymphoma.. [First 29 days]

    Evaluate the effect of ASN002 on biomarkers

  4. To evaluate the change from baseline in the intensity of Phospho-extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) protein found in the blood of patients with lymphoma. [First 29 days]

    Evaluate the effect of ASN002 on biomarkers

  5. The number of patients who show a decrease from baseline in a serum panel of biomarkers of inflammation [First 29 days]

    Evaluate the effect of ASN002 on biomarkers
