A Phase I Dose-escalation Study of Subcutaneous ALM201 in Patients With Advanced Ovarian Cancer and Other Solid Tumours

This is an interventional treatment trial for Solid Tumors Read More

Inclusion Criteria:

• Part 1 Specific Inclusion Criterion

  *Patients with histologically and/or cytologically confirmed advanced solid tumour for whom no standard effective therapy is available or felt likely to be of limited efficacy and in whom a rationale for use of an anti-angiogenic treatment approach exists. Note: Previous use of anti-angiogenic therapy is allowed if tolerated

• Part 2 Specific Inclusion Criterion

  *Patients with advanced ovarian cancer, who are intolerant of or whose tumour is resistant to platinums and who have failed to respond to, or have relapsed following, standard therapy and whose tumour has a proangiogenic profile as assessed by the angiogenesis gene signature test. Note: Previous use of anti-angiogenic therapy is allowed if tolerated.

• General Inclusion Criteria for all Patients

  • Measurable or evaluable disease.
  • Recovery from previous treatment to baseline or CTCAE ≤ Grade 1, as determined by CTCAE v4.03 criteria (Appendix B), of reversible toxicities related to prior treatment, with the exception of alopecia, lymphopenia, other non-clinically significant adverse events; recovery from previous radiotherapy other than residual cutaneous effects or stable < Grade 2 gastrointestinal toxicity; complete recovery from surgery other than stable < Grade 2 toxicity.
  • ECOG Performance Status (PS) of 0 or 1.
  • Acceptable haematological, renal and hepatic
  • Women must have either a negative pregnancy test prior to first study drug administration or be post menopausal. Male and female patients of childbearing potential must use appropriate methods birth control.
  • Patients must give written informed consent and understand the requirements of the study

Exclusion Criteria:

For all Patients

• History of inability to tolerate anti-angiogenic therapies e.g. increased blood pressure (BP), proteinuria, prior thromboembolic events.
• Previous history of bowel obstruction, clinical evidence of gastro-intestinal obstruction, large burden of peritoneal disease or evidence of bowel involvement on computed tomography.

• Patents has received:

  • any chemotherapy regimens (including investigational agents) with delayed toxicity within 4 weeks (6 weeks for prior nitrosourea or mitomycin C) of Cycle 1, Day 1, or received chemotherapy regimens given continuously or on a weekly basis which have limited potential for delayed toxicity within 2 weeks of Cycle 1, Day 1.
  • radiotherapy, immunotherapy or biological agents (includes investigational agents) within 4 weeks of Cycle 1, Day 1. Localised palliative radiotherapy is permitted for symptom control.
• Documented, symptomatic or uncontrolled intracranial metastases or primary intracerebral tumours.
• Cancer with leptomeningeal involvement.
• On therapeutic anti-coagulation (aspirin dosing ≤100 mg per oral (PO) daily allowed).
• Previous malignancy, except for non-basal-cell carcinoma of skin or carcinoma-in-situ of the uterine cervix, unless the tumour was treated with curative intent more than 2 years prior to study entry.
• Active cardiac condition or history of significant cardiac condition. Known human immunodeficiency virus positivity.
• Active hepatitis B or C or other active liver disease (other than malignancy).
• Any active, clinically significant, viral, bacterial, or systemic fungal infection within 4 weeks prior to Cycle 1, Day 1.
• Any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic conditions or any other issues which make it undesirable for the patient to participate in the study or which could jeopardize compliance with the protocol.
