Study Description

Brief Summary

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of veliparib and topotecan hydrochloride and to see how well they work in treating patients with solid tumors, ovarian cancer that has come back or does not respond to treatment, or primary peritoneal cancer. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving veliparib with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

To determine the maximum tolerated dose of the combination of veliparib (ABT-888) and weekly topotecan (topotecan hydrochloride) in adult patients with advanced solid tumors. (Phase I) II. To identify any anti-tumor activity of this treatment combination, as assessed by objective response in patients with advanced solid tumors. (Phase I) III. To assess the confirmed response rate for patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer or primary peritoneal carcinoma treated with the combination of ABT-888 and weekly topotecan.
To assess the progression free response (PFS) for patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer or primary peritoneal carcinoma treated with the combination of ABT-888 and weekly topotecan. (Phase II)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

To identify any pharmacokinetic interactions between ABT-888 and topotecan. (Phase I) II. To determine whether topotecan stimulates adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribose polymer formation in circulating peripheral blood mononuclear cells. (Phase I) III. To determine whether ABT-888 inhibits basal or topotecan-stimulated ADP-ribose polymer formation. (Phase

1. To assess differences in the toxicity and/or efficacy of this regimen based on BRCA 1/2 mutational status. (Phase II) V. To determine whether pretreatment tumor cell levels of topoisomerase I, poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP), BRCA1, BRCA2, XRCC1, tyrosyl-deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1), P-glycoprotein or breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) predict response to this regimen. (Phase II) VI. To identify, in an exploratory manner, any transcriptional profiles that may predict response to this regimen. (Phase II)

OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose-escalation study of veliparib and topotecan hydrochloride followed by a phase II study. (PHASE I DOSE-ESCALATION PART IS COMPLETED)

Patients receive veliparib orally (PO) on days 1-3, 8-10, and 15-17 (veliparib is omitted on days 1-3 of course 2) and topotecan hydrochloride intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on days 2, 9, and 16. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 3 months (Phase I) or every 3 or 6 months for 5 years (Phase II).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

Maximum tolerated dose of topotecan hydrochloride and veliparib, determined according to incidence of dose-limiting toxicity, graded using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 (Phase I) [4 weeks]
The number and severity of all adverse events (overall, by dose-level, and by tumor group) will be tabulated and summarized. The grade 3+ adverse events will also be described and summarized in a similar fashion. Toxicity incidence by BRCA mutation will also be evaluated for the patients enrolled in the expanded Phase I maximum tolerated dose cohort. Frequency distribution, graphical techniques, and other descriptive measures will form the basis of these analyses.
Proportion of tumor responses, defined as complete response or partial response as assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors [Up to 48 weeks (12 courses)]
The proportion of successes will be estimated by the number of successes divided by the total number of evaluable patients. Confidence intervals for the true success proportion will be calculated according to the approach of Duffy and Santner (1987).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Overall survival [The time from registration to death due to any cause, assessed up to 5 years]
The distribution of survival time will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.
Progression free survival [The time from registration to the earliest date of documentation of disease progression or death due to any cause, assessed up to 5 years]
The distribution of progression free survival will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.
Duration of response [Up to 5 years]
Duration of response is defined for all evaluable patients who have achieved an objective response as the date at which the patient's earliest best objective status is first noted to be either a complete response or partial response to the earliest date progression is documented.
Time to treatment failure [The time from the date of registration to the date at which the patient is removed from treatment due to progression, adverse events, or refusal, assessed up to 5 years]
Time to treatment failure is defined to be the time from the date of registration to the date at which the patient is removed from treatment due to progression, adverse events, or refusal.
Adverse events, graded using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 [Up to 5 years]
The maximum grade for each type of adverse event will be recorded for each patient, and frequency tables will be reviewed to determine patterns. Additionally, the relationship of the adverse event(s) to the study treatment will be taken into consideration.
