Abstract
BACKGROUND
Bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) proteins are epigenetic readers that regulate expression of genes involved in oncogenesis. CC-90010 is a novel, oral, reversible, small-molecule BET inhibitor.
PATIENTS AND METHODS
CC-90010-ST-001 (NCT03220347; 2015-004371-79) is a phase I dose-escalation and expansion study of CC-90010 in patients with advanced or unresectable solid tumors and relapsed/refractory (R/R) non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). We report results from the dose escalation phase, which explored 11 dose levels and four dosing schedules, two weekly (2 days on/5 days off; 3 days on/4 days off), one biweekly (3 days on/11 days off), and one monthly (4 days on/24 days off). The primary objectives were to determine the safety, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase II dose (RP2D) and schedule. Secondary objectives were to evaluate signals of early antitumor activity, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics.
RESULTS
This study enrolled 69 patients, 67 with solid tumors and two with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The median age was 57 years (range, 21-80) and the median number of prior regimens was four (range, 1-9). Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were mostly mild and manageable; grade 3/4 TRAEs reported in more than two patients were thrombocytopenia (13%), anemia, and fatigue (4% each). Six patients had dose-limiting toxicities. MTDs were 15 mg (2 days on/5 days off), 30 mg (3 days on/11 days off), and 45 mg (4 days on/24 days off). The RP2D and schedule selected for expansion was 45 mg (4 days on/24 days off). As of 8 October 2019, one patient with grade 2 astrocytoma achieved a complete response, one patient with endometrial carcinoma had a partial response, and six patients had prolonged stable disease ≥11 months.
CONCLUSIONS
CC-90010 is well tolerated, with single-agent activity in patients with heavily pretreated, advanced solid tumors.
