About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Endometrial Cancer focused on measuring metastatic, recurrent, Solid Cancer

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Must have measurable disease or evaluable disease. Measurable disease is defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest dimension to be recorded). Each lesion must be a minimum size of 10 mm by CT scan (CT scan slice thickness no greater than 5 mm), 10 mm caliper measurement by clinical exam or 20 mm by chest X-ray. Lymph node must be ≥ 15 mm in short axis when assessed by CT scan. Evaluable disease is disease evident on imaging that does not meet Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria 1.1, however, meets tumor marker evaluation, e.g., Gynecologic Cancer Intergroup (GCIG) criteria. Notes: i) If the patient's only disease is confined to a solitary lesion, its neoplastic nature must be confirmed by histology or cytology unless it is accompanied by GCIG criteria or can be clearly be shown as new disease when compared to prior imaging. ii) Disease in a previously irradiated field is acceptable as the only site of measurable disease only if there has been clear progression since completion of radiotherapy.
  • Age > 18 years and competent to give informed consent.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0, 1, or 2 and a life expectancy of at least 60 days.
  • Patients must have adequate: Bone marrow function: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than or equal to 1,500/ul, equivalent to Common Toxicity Criteria (CTCAE v4.0) grade 1. Platelets greater than or equal to 100,000/ul.; Renal function: creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 x institutional upper limit normal (ULN), CTCAE v4.0 grade 1.; Hepatic function: Bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN (CTCAE v4.0 grade 1). serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) and alkaline phosphatase less than or equal to 2.5 x ULN (CTCAE v4.0 grade 1).; Neurologic function: Neuropathy (sensory and motor) less than or equal to CTCAE v4.0 grade 1.; No chemotherapy, radiotherapy, biologic, hormonal, or investigational drug therapy within 28 days prior to start of treatment on study.
  • Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum pregnancy test prior to the study entry and be practicing an effective method of birth control during the course of the study, in a manner such that risk of failure is minimized. Prior to study enrollment, WOCBP must be advised of the importance of avoiding pregnancy during trial participation and the potential risk factors for an intentional pregnancy.
  • Phase 1A - Additional criteria applicable to phase 1A

    • Must have pathologically confirmed solid cancer that is locally advanced or metastatic cancer.
    • Patient's physician believes that the cancer is advanced, recurrent or metastatic and not curable by local measures (i.e., surgery, radiation, other drugs).
    • Patient's physician believes the patient may potentially benefit from this combination of therapy.
    • Patients may have had up to three (3) prior cytotoxic chemotherapeutic regimens including prior treatment with carboplatin and paclitaxel. Chemotherapy drug changes and modifications made for reasons other than progression are not considered a separate regimen. Examples would be drug changes for toxicity or consolidation chemotherapy after adjuvant treatment. Patients may have received any number of prior non-cytotoxic regimens such as monoclonal antibodies, cytokines, signal transduction inhibitors, or hormonal therapy. Previous radiation therapy is allowed.
  • Phase 1B - Endometrial: Additional Inclusion Criteria

    • Epithelial endometrial cancer. (i.e. carcinosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, and endometrial stromal sarcoma are excluded).

    • Must have measurable disease
  • Phase 1B - Ovarian: Additional Inclusion Criteria

    • Recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer (no stromal or germ cell ovarian cancers)
    • Platinum-sensitive defined as a recurrence at least 6 months (180 days) after the last day of primary adjuvant chemotherapy. Patients may have been retreated with a salvage line of chemotherapy but there must be a platinum-free interval of 6 or more months.
    • Two (2) or less prior therapies including adjuvant chemotherapy
    • Measurable or evaluable disease

Exclusion Criteria:

  • An upper gastrointestinal or other condition that would impair swallowing or absorption of oral medication
  • Any serious illness or medical condition that would not permit the patient to be managed according to the protocol, including, but not limited to, any the following:
