Eligibility Criteria

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

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participants must be ≥18 years of age.
  • Participants must have histologically or cytologically confirmed glioma, with documented IDH1 and/or IDH2 gene-mutation.
  • Participants must have radiographic evidence of non-enhancing disease progression/recurrence per RANO criteria for low grade gliomas (LGG).

  • Participants must have expected survival of ≥ 6 months.
  • Participants must have adequate bone marrow function as evidenced by:

    • Leukocytes ≥ 3,000/mcL
    • Absolute neutrophil count ≥1500/mcL;
    • Hemoglobin ≥10 g/dL
    • Platelets ≥100,000/mcL
  • Participants must have adequate hepatic function as evidenced by:

    • Serum total bilirubin ≤1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN), unless considered due to Gilbert's disease

Exceptions include basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, in situ cervical cancer that has undergone potentially curative therapy, or surgically treated prostate cancer.
  • Participants with known hypersensitivity to any of the components of ASTX727.
  • Participants with a history of myocardial infarction within the 6 months prior to screening.
  • Participants with a known history of severe and/or uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmias.
  • Participants with QTc interval ≥450 msec or with other factors that significantly increase the risk of QT prolongation or arrhythmic events (e.g., family history of long QT interval syndrome).
  • Participants with known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or active hepatitis B or C.
  • Participants with any other medical or psychological condition, deemed by the Investigator to be likely to interfere with a participant's ability to sign informed consent, cooperate, or participate in the study.
  • Participants with known dysphagia, short-gut syndrome, gastroparesis, or other conditions that limit the ingestion or gastrointestinal absorption of drugs administered orally.
  • Participants with evidence of intracranial or intratumoral hemorrhage either by MRI or CT scan. Participants with resolving post-surgical changes, punctate/micro-hemorrhage, or hemosiderin are eligible.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Experimental

Arm Label

ASTX727 (Cedazuridine + Cytidine Antimetabolite Decitabine)

Expansion Cohort

Arm Description

-ASTX727 administered orally for 5 or 6 consecutive days every 28d cycle and will de-escalate to 4 consecutive days every 28 d cycle.

Oral ASTX727 will be administered daily for 4, 5 or 6 consecutive days Surgical resection will take place 12 days (+/- 1 day) after initiation of treatment

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Maximum tolerated dose
Participants will be enrolled at escalating doses using a standard 3+3 dose escalation design until the maximum administered dose is reached or until dose limiting toxicities result in the end of dose escalation. The maximum tolerated dose is the highest administered dose level at which participants experienced experienced 1 or fewer dose limiting toxicities.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Median Progression Free Survival
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the time from randomization (or registration) to the earlier of progression or death due to any cause. Participants alive without disease progression are censored at date of last disease evaluation. Disease progression will be assessed using the Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) Working Group updated response assessment criteria for low-grade Gliomas.
Overall Survival
Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from randomization (or registration) to death due to any cause, or censored at date last known alive.
Response Rate
The number of participants achieving a complete or partial tumor response as assessed using the the Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) Working Group updated response assessment criteria for low-grade Gliomas.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
this research study is evaluating the highest dose of ASTX727 that can be administered safely to recurrent/progressive non-enhancing IDH mutant gliomas patients.
Detailed Description
This research study is a Phase I clinical trial, which tests the safety of an investigational drug and also tries to define the appropriate dose of the investigational drug to use for further studies. "Investigational" means that the drug is being studied. The FDA (the U.S. Food and Drug Administration) has not approved ASTX727 as a treatment for any disease. ASTX727 is made up of the 2 study drugs cedazuridine and decitabine. Cedazuridine is believed to work by slowing down how fast decitabine is broken down by the body. Decitabine is believed to work by blocking abnormal cells or cancer cells from growing.
