A Dose Escalation and Cohort Expansion Study of KB-0742 in Participants With Relapsed or Refractory Solid Tumors or Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma
Relapsed Solid Tumors, Refractory Solid Tumors, Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Relapsed Solid Tumors focused on measuring KB-0742, Relapsed Solid Tumors, Refractory Solid Tumors, Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma, CDK9 Inhibitor
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Males or females ≥ 18 years old (Parts 1 and 2A); males or females ≥ 16 years old (Part 2B)
- Willing and able to provide consent (and assent for participants between the ages of 16-18)
Part 1: Participants who meet at least 1 of the following criteria:
- Any relapsed/refractory (R/R) solid tumor with readily accessible biopsy sites and consenting to 1 baseline and 1 on-treatment biopsy.
Tumor type of interest (see list below) with measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) AND at least 1 RECIST measurable scan prior to the most recent scan to document the rate of tumor growth before the initiation of study treatment. Tumor types of interest (R/R without other available therapeutic options) are:
- Small cell lung cancer (SCLC)
- Epithelial ovarian cancer or non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with documented MYC copy number gain or overexpression as determined in a certified laboratory using a CAP/CLIA (or equivalent) assay or as assessed in a central laboratory designated by the sponsor
- Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with documented MYC translocation or Burkitt's lymphoma (as determined by local testing)
- Sarcoma with documented transcription factor fusion (as determined by local testing)
- Chordoma, NUT midline carcinoma, or adenoid cystic carcinoma
- Part 2A: Participants with histologically or cytologically confirmed solid tumors who have failed, are intolerant to or are considered ineligible for standard-of-care anti-cancer treatments.
Note: All Part 2, Cohort A, patients will require documented MYC copy number gain or overexpression as determined in a certified laboratory using a CAP/CLIA (or equivalent) assay or as assessed in a central laboratory designated by the sponsor. This cohort will include 7-10 patients with one of the following malignancies: NSCLC, triple-negative breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and lymphoma.
- Part 2B: Histologically or cytologically confirmed SCLC or soft tissue sarcomas with defined transcription factor oncogenic drivers
- Access to a tumor sample for central laboratory testing
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) 0 or 1
- Evaluable or measurable disease, per RECIST 1.1 for solid tumors or the Lugano Classification for non-Hodgkin lymphoma
- Adequate bone marrow and organ function
- Recovery from treatment-related toxicities from prior therapies to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) Grade ≤ 1 or to baseline level
- Must agree to use highly effective birth control during the trial and for at least 3 months after the last dose of study drug; female participants cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding
Exclusion Criteria:
- Any other anti-cancer therapies including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or hormonal therapy within 4 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter)
- History of surgery (except for diagnostic purposes) or non-palliative radiotherapy within 4 weeks
- History of allogeneic transplantation within 6 months
- Active central nervous system (CNS) involvement by the underlying malignancy; previously treated CNS metastatic disease is permitted with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) documentation of stable disease for at least 3 months prior to study start
- History of stroke or intracranial hemorrhage within ≤6 months
- History of seizure disorder, ie, recurrent seizures with an underlying etiology and requiring ongoing anti-epileptic medication
- Current use of medications associated with seizure risk unless approved by Medical Monitor
- Active infections requiring systemic antibiotic, antiviral or antifungal therapy
- Known active coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
- Clinically significant heart disease
- Uncontrolled hypertension
- Prolongation of QT interval at baseline
- Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B, or hepatitis C infection
- Significant concurrent, uncontrolled medical condition including, but not limited to, renal, hepatic, hematologic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, pulmonary, neurological, cerebral or psychiatric disease

Part 1: Dose Escalation
Part 2: Cohort Expansion
Sequential cohorts of participants will receive escalating doses of KB-0742.
Following identification of the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) in Part 1, the following expansion cohorts will be enrolled: Cohort A: Relapsed or refractory (R/R) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), and ovarian cancer with evidence of MYC amplication/overexpression. Cohort B: Relapsed or refractory (R/R) small cell lung cancer (SCLC), NUT midline carcinomas (NMC), adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), chordoma and soft tissue sarcomas with evidence of transcription factor dysregulation.
