Assessment of the Efficacy and Safety of Alpelisib (BYL719) in Pediatric and Adult Patients With Megalencephaly-CApillary Malformation Polymicrogyria Syndrome (MCAP) (SESAM)

Assessment of the Efficacy and Safety of Alpelisib (BYL719) in Pediatric and Adult Patients With Megalencephaly-CApillary Malformation Polymicrogyria Syndrome (MCAP)

A Phase II Double-blind Multi-center, Placebo-controlled Trial, to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Alpelisib (BYL719) in Pediatric and Adult Patients With Megalencephaly-CApillary Malformation Polymicrogyria Syndrome (MCAP)

This study is a two periods multi-center Phase II trial, with a 6 months double-blind, placebo-controlled period followed by open label period. It will involve 20 participants with MCAP syndrome. Assessment will be performed at baseline and after 24 months of treatment and will include MRI, biological and clinical results, attention, language, and Intellectual Quotient (IQ) assessment. Appropriate neuropsychological tests will be used according to the age of patients and their level of cognitive impairment.

Administration during open label and double-blind period of group B: alpelisib will be taken once a day each day over 24 mois During open label period of group A: alpelisib will be taken once a day each day over 24 months

During double-blind period of group A: matching placebo will be taken once a day each day over 6 months

Inclusion Criteria: Signed informed consent and assent (when applicable) from the patient, parent, or guardian must be obtained prior to any study related screening procedures are performed. Male or female patients age ≥2 years and ≤40 years at the time of informed consent Patients with diagnosis of MCAP* with neurodevelopmental disorder presentation (from specific learning disorder to severe intellectual disability) Documented evidence of a postzygotic or constitutional mutation(s) in the PIK3CA gene performed in local laboratories using a Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) based validated test at the time of informed consent. Adequate bone marrow and organ function (assessed during the screening visit): Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 × 109/L Platelets ≥ 100 × 109/L Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL (transfusions are allowed) Calcium (corrected for serum albumin) and magnesium within normal limits or ≤Grade 1 according to NCI-CTCAE version 5.0 if judged clinically not significant by the investigator Potassium within normal limits. INR ≤1.5 Creatinine Clearance ≥ 30 mL/min using Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) (≥18 years old) or creatinine-based Bedside Schwartz (˂18 years old) Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) equation Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 × ULN. Total bilirubin< ULN except for patients with Gilbert's syndrome who may only be included if the total bilirubin is ≤ 3.0 × ULN or direct bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≤ 140 mg/dL (7.7 mmol/L) and Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) ≤ 6.5% (both criteria have to be met) Fasting Serum amylase ≤ 2 × ULN Fasting Serum lipase ≤ ULN Able to swallow study drug according to age: tablets, or as drinkable suspension, or granules (under development) For women of child-bearing potential only: negative pregnancy test at screening visit Male patients with sexual partners who are pregnant, possibly pregnant or who could become pregnant should use condoms during sexual intercourse for the duration of the study and for one week following discontinuation of alpelisib. 7. For exploratory study only : signed informed optional consent for lumbar puncture Exclusion Criteria: Participants meeting any of the following criteria are not eligible for inclusion in this study: Patient previously treated with alpelisib Known impairment of GI function due to concomitant disease that may significantly alter the absorption of the study drug (e.g., ulcerative diseases, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome, or small bowel resection) at time of informed consent. Participant with uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (Type I or II) at time of informed consent. History of hypersensitivity to any drugs or metabolites of PI3K inhibitor or any of the excipients of alpelisib at time of informed consent. Participant with other concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled medical conditions that would, in the treating Physician's judgment, contraindicate administration of alpelisib (e.g., active and/or uncontrolled severe infection, chronic active hepatitis, hepatic impairment Child Pugh score C, immuno-compromised, etc.) at time of informed consent. Female participants of childbearing potential and male participants who do not agree at time of informed consent to abstinence or, if sexually active, unwilling to use a condom and/or a highly effective method of contraception for the duration of the study and for one week following discontinuation of alpelisib. Highly effective contraception methods is one of the following: Total abstinence: when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods) and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception Female sterilization: have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy), total hysterectomy or bilateral tubal ligation at least six weeks before taking alpelisib. In case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the female has been confirmed by follow-up hormone level assessment Male sterilization at least 6 months prior to screening. The vasectomized male partner should be the sole partner for that study participant Use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception or placement of an intrauterine device or intrauterine system or other forms of hormonal contraception that have comparable efficacy (failure rate <1%), for example hormone vaginal ring or transdermal hormone contraception If local regulations deviate from the contraception methods listed above to prevent pregnancy, local regulations apply and will be described in the ICF. Treatment by any mTOR or PI3K-AKT signaling pathway inhibitor within 1 month before inclusion History of prior and or ongoing malignancy (within 5 years before informed consent except radically treated Carcinoma in situ of radically treated basal-cell carcinoma of skin or thyroid gland well differentiated microcarcinoma or Stage 1 Wilms' tumor of a histology other than anaplastic), or ongoing investigations or treatment for malignancy at time of informed consent.
