Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This is an open-label, multicenter study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of vactosertib in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with metastatic or locally advanced colorectal or gastric/gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

This is phase 1b/2a, open label, multi-center study to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and anti-tumor activity of vactosertib in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with mCRC including CMS4 or diffuse GC/GEJC with two phases (Dose Finding Phase and Dose Expansion Phase). At screening, CMS4 will be classified by an experienced pathologist in the central lab that will examine the histology of primary surgical tissues. Approximately, 67 total patients are expected to be enrolled in this study. The first phase of the study, the Dose Finding Phase, will determine the MTD of the combination regimen. The second phase, the Dose Expansion Phase, will further evaluate the combination regimen to confirm RP2D.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Dose Escalation of TEW-7197

TEW-7197 will be administered orally for 5 days per week (5D/W) and Pembrolizumab will be administered as a dose of 200 mg every 3weeks.

Drug: TEW-7197
TEW-7197 will be administered orally for 5 days per week (5D/W) at the same time in the morning and evening (BID) approximately 12 hours apart.Pembrolizumab will be administered as a dose of 200 mg every 3weeks.

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Maximum Tolerated Dose [3weeks]

      To define the MTD

    Secondary Outcome Measures

      To evaluate safety profile of TEW-7197 with regards to frequency, type,grade and seriousness and causality of treatment-related clinical and laboratory adverse events.

    2. Efficacy of TEW-7197+Pembrolizumab [through study completion, an average of 2 years]

      Objective Response Rate(%)

    3. Pharmacokinetics (PK) of TEW-7197 [At cycle 1(each cycle is 21days)]

      Peak Plasma Concentration of TEW-7197

    4. Pharmacodynamics of TEW-7197 [At cycle 1 ,3 (each cycle is 21days)]

      pSMAD in peripheral blood mononuclear cell determined by immunohistochemistry
