About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Maximum Tolerated Dose focused on measuring GIST, MTD, Imatinib, Selinexor, Phase Ib, Phase II, Unresectable, Metastatic
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age ≥18 years at the time of study entry.
- Histologically confirmed metastatic and/or unresectable GIST. Patients must demonstrate prior failure to at least imatinib. Any number of previous therapies for GIST is allowed.
- Failure of imatinib is defined as disease progression after ≥ 6 months of treatment with imatinib for advanced/metastatic disease. Exception to this rule is GIST patients with documented KIT or PDGFRA mutations.
- Measurable disease per modified RECIST 1.1.
- ECOG performance status 0 to 2.
Adequate hematopoietic function (within 7 days prior to enrollment):
- Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL (90 g/L).
- Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1000/mm3.
- Platelets ≥ 100,000 /mm3. Patients must have at least a 2-week interval from the last red blood cell (RBC) transfusion and/or growth factor support prior to the Screening hemoglobin and neutrophil assessment. However, patients may receive RBC, growth factor support, and/or platelet transfusions as clinically indicated per institutional guidelines during the study.
Adequate organ function (within 7 days prior to enrollment):
Alanine aminotransferanse (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferanse (AST)
≤2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN), or ≤ 5.0 x ULN if liver metastases are present.
- Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) limit < 2.5 x ULN or ≤ 5.0 x ULN if liver metastases are present.
- Total serum bilirubin ≤ 2 x ULN. Patients with Gilbert's syndrome must have a total bilirubin of < 3 × ULN.
- Adequate renal function: estimated creatinine clearance of ≥ 30 mL/min, calculated using the formula of Cockroft and Gault
- Patients must be able to swallow oral medication and no malabsorption condition.
- Willingness to use effective means of birth control throughout the duration of clinical study and for at least 3 months after completion of study drug.
- Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test performed within 7 days of the start of study drug administration.
- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Cohort A: Intolerance to first-line treatment imatinib 400mg daily.
- Use of any approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors or investigational agents within 1 week or 5 half-lives of the agent, whichever is shorter, prior to receiving study drugs.
- Participants who have had radiotherapy within 4 weeks prior to study entry.
- Major surgery or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks prior to study entry.
- Presence of symptomatic or uncontrolled brain or central nervous system metastases.
- Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to the selinexor, imatinib or any of its components.
- Patient has a history of another primary malignancy that has been diagnosed or required therapy within 1 year prior to the first dose of study drug (The following are exempt from the 1-year limit: completely resected basal cell and squamous cell skin cancer, curatively treated localized prostate cancer, and completely resected carcinoma in situ of any site.)
- Unstable cardiovascular function: • Symptomatic ischemia, or • Uncontrolled clinically significant conduction abnormalities (i.e., ventricular tachycardia on antiarrhythmic agents are excluded; 1st degree atrioventricular (AV) block or asymptomatic left anterior fascicular block/right bundle branch block (LAFB/RBBB) will not be excluded), or • Congestive heart failure (CHF) NYHA Class ≥ 3, or • Myocardial infarction (MI) within 3 months. • Left ventricular ejection fraction < 40 %. • Hypertension > 140 mm Hg systolic or > 90 mm Hg diastolic with or without antihypertensive therapy.
- Ongoing infection > Grade 2.
- Patients with any seizure disorder requiring medication.
- HIV-positive individuals on combination antiretroviral.
- Patients with active hepatitis B or C, or chronic hepatitis B or C requiring treatment with antiviral therapy.
- Serious psychiatric or medical conditions that could interfere with treatment.
- Pregnant or lactating females.
- Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g. clarithromycin, indinavir, itraconazole, ketoconazole , nefazodone , nelfinavir , posaconazole, ritonavir, saquinavir, telithromycin, voriconazole) or strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g. carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, rifampin, St. John's Wort) within 28 days or 5 drug half-lives (if drug half-life in patients is known), whichever is longer, before start of study treatment.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Other
selinexor as a single agent and in combination with imatinib
This is a single-arm, two-cohort, open label phase Ib/II trial studying the combination of oral imatinib 400 mg, once daily, and oral selinexor given once weekly (Cohort A); and single-agent oral selinexor 60 mg BIW (Cohort B). The study will consist of: Cohort A: an initial escalation phase (Ib) evaluating increasing doses of selinexor in combination with fixed doses of imatinib administered in repeated 28-day cycles in advanced/metastatic, imatinib-resistant GIST patients, followed by en expansion phase (II) testing for safety and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity Cohort B: single-agent, fixed selinexor dose in the same target population
