  • Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 7 days of starting treatment.
  • The effects of entinostat and GSK525762C on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason and because HDAC inhibitor (HDACi) and BET inhibitor (BETi) agents are known to be teratogenic, women of child-bearing potential and their male partner must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation and for 7 months after completion of entinostat and GSK525762C administration. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.

  • Patients must have tumors determined to be easily accessible for biopsy and must be willing to have serial biopsies. Tumor biopsies will be performed on the most accessible biopsiable site of disease. All possible precautions to avoid complications will be taken, including discussions in multidisciplinary meetings, if needed. If a biopsy cannot be performed safely (e.g. there is no safely accessible biopsiable tumor tissue) or biopsy does not yield sufficient tissue for analysis, participation is still allowed.
  • Patients on both therapeutic and prophylactic anticoagulation may participate as long as they have no history of clinically significant bleeding while on anticoagulation.
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Who cannot join

  • Patients who have received radiation therapy within 21 days prior to the first dose of the investigational products.
  • Patients who have a diagnosis of NK cell lymphoma.
  • Patients who have not recovered from adverse events due to prior anti-cancer therapy. Toxicities should have recovered to =< grade 1, excluding alopecia, or should be stable chronic grade 2 toxicities that do not overlap with presumed toxicities of entinostat or GSK525762C.
  • Patients who are receiving any other investigational agents.
  • Patients with known untreated or symptomatic brain or leptomeningeal metastases are excluded. Patients with previously treated central nervous system (CNS) metastasis may be included provided that they have stable CNS disease for at least 4 weeks (confirmed by imaging) without symptoms and are off corticosteroids (above physiologic dose) for that indication.

  • Patients with significant malabsorption or nausea and vomiting that would interfere with oral therapies.
  • Patients with bleeding diathesis or clinically significant bleeding within the prior 6 months.
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to entinostat (e.g. medications that have a benzamide structure [tiapride, remoxipride, clebopride] or GSK525762C [e.g. benzodiazepines]).
  • Patients receiving any medications or substances that are strong inhibitors or strong inducers of CYP3A4 are ineligible. Because the lists of these agents are constantly changing, it is important to regularly consult a frequently-updated medical reference. As part of the enrollment/informed consent procedures, the patient will be counseled on the risk of interactions with other agents, and what to do if new medications need to be prescribed or if the patient is considering a new over-the-counter medicine or herbal product.
  • Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illness.
  • Patients with a history of clinically significant bleeding.
  • Patients with psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • Pregnant women are excluded from this study because entinostat is an HDACi and GSK525762C is a BETi with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with entinostat or GSK525762C, breastfeeding should be discontinued throughout the treatment period and for at least 28 days following the last dose of study treatment if the mother is treated with entinostat or GSK525762C.

About this study

Official title: Phase I Study of GSK525762C and Entinostat in Advanced and Refractory Solid Tumors and Lymphomas

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of GSK525762C (molibresib besylate) and entinostat in treating patients with solid tumors or lymphomas that have spread to other parts of the body (advanced) or are not responding to treatment (refractory). GSK525762C and entinostat may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. This study may help doctors find out if giving the combination of GSK525762C and entinostat is better or worse than the usual approach for treating solid tumors or lymphomas.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of GSK525762C and entinostat in combination in patients with advanced and refractory solid tumors and lymphomas based on dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) of the combination of GSK525762C and entinostat.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To describe the safety profile of GSK525762C and entinostat in advanced and refractory solid tumors and lymphomas.

II. To determine the overall response rate (ORR) of GSK525762C and entinostat in advanced and refractory solid tumors and lymphomas.

III. To determine the progression-free survival (PFS), duration of response (DOR), and overall survival (OS) of GSK525762C and entinostat in this patient population.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To assess the effect of GSK525762C and entinostat therapy on apoptosis, as measured by an apoptosis multiplex immunoassay.

II. To assess the effect of GSK525762C and entinostat therapy on c-MYC and YAP1 as measured by ribonucleic acid (RNA) and protein expression.

III. To assess the effect of GSK525762C and entinostat therapy on tumor burden and gene expression patterns as measured by whole exome sequencing (WES) and RNA sequencing (RNASeq) on circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) (ctDNA) specimens.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.

Patients receive entinostat orally (PO) on days 1, 8, 15, and 22, and molibresib PO once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Entinostat and Molibresib in people with Advanced Lymphoma and Advanced Malignant Solid Neoplasm, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 29 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximum tolerated dose (time frame: At 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Sep 2020.
