Talazoparib with Palbociclib, Axitinib, or Crizotinib for Advanced Solid Tumors

This study is testing different combinations of medicines for advanced or metastatic (spread to other parts of the body) solid tumors. It aims to find the best dose and understand the possible benefits and side effects of talazoparib when given with palbociclib, axitinib, or crizotinib. Talazoparib works by stopping PARP proteins, which help repair damaged tumor cell DNA, from working. Palbociclib, axitinib, and crizotinib may also stop tumor cells from growing. You may be able to join if you have a specific gene defect in DNA Damage Response (DDR) genes like BRCA1 or PALB2, or other related genes. The main goal is to see how safe these combinations are and what side effects they cause. This study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 111 participants.

Study design

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Defect in DNA Damage Response (DDR) genes specified below for each cohort or other related genes at the discretion of the principal investigator in consultation with the MD Anderson Cancer Center Institute for Personalized Cancer Therapy Precision Oncology Decision Support (PODS) group. See below for additional eligibility guidance for Arms A - C:
Eligibility for Arm A (Talazoparib + Palbociclib):
Solid tumors with defects in DDR genes such as: BRCA1/2, PALB2, RAD51C/D, or other related genes at the discretion of the principal investigator, or
MYC-aberrant solid tumors (e.g. overexpression, amplification, mutation)
Eligibility for Arm B (Talazoparib + Axitinib):
Solid tumors with defects in DDR genes such as: BRCA1/2, PALB2, RAD51C/D, or other related genes at the discretion of the principal investigator, or
Participants with BRCA1/2 wild-type high-grade serous ovarian cancer, or
Participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer without a specific and/or selected mutation
Eligibility for Arm C (Talazoparib + Crizotinib):
Solid tumors with defects in DDR genes such as: BRCA1/2, PALB2,36 RAD51C/D, or other related genes at the discretion of the principal investigator, or
Solid tumors with defects in MET, ALK or ROS1 (e.g. MET mutations or amplifications, high MET expression, ALK translocations, ROS1 translocations) NOTE: Participants who are eligible for more than one Arm will be assigned according to physician preference. 2. Histological or cytological diagnosis of a solid tumor that is advanced/metastatic, intolerable to standard therapy, resistant to effective standard therapy, or for which no standard therapy is available. 3. Availability of a fresh or recent tumor tissue sample from a diagnostic biopsy/surgery or a metastatic tumor biopsy; the sample must have been obtained within 12 months prior to study enrollment. When only bone disease is present, an archival tumor tissue sample obtained within 5 years prior to study enrollment may be accepted for non-prostate cancer patients and a fresh bone biopsy may be accepted for prostate cancer patients only.
Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/mm3 or ≥ 1.5 x 109/L
Platelets ≥ 100,000/mm3 or ≥ 100 x 109/L
Hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL (≥ 5.6 mmol/L). 8. Adequate renal function defined by an estimated creatinine clearance (CRCL) ≥ 60 mL/min OR normal creatinine as assessed by 24h urine assessment (not both) will be required during the dose-escalation phase.
Calculate CRCL according to the Cockcroft-Gault formula as: CRCL = \[(140-age) × weight)\]/(72 x SCR)\] × 0.85 (if female), where CRCL (creatinine clearance) is measured in mL/min, age is expressed in years, weight in kilograms (kg), and SCR (serum creatinine) in mg/dL 24h urine assessment:
24h urine assessment will be performed to assess whether creatinine is within normal limits
In the event that 24h urine is used, then CRCL does not require to be calculated NOTE: Patients with moderate renal impairment (30 - 59 mL/min) will be considered during the dose expansion phase. A reduced starting dose for talazoparib will be considered in these patients. If the dose for dose expansion is 1 mg once daily, the dose will be reduced to 0.75 mg once daily. If the expanded dose is 0.75 mg once daily, the dose will be reduced to 0.5 mg once daily. 9. Adequate liver function including:
Total serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x the upper limit of normal range (ULN)
Aspartate and Alanine aminotransferase (AST and ALT) ≤ 5 x ULN. 10. Female participants of childbearing potential must have negative serum pregnancy or urine pregnancy test at screening. Female participants of non-childbearing potential must meet at least one of the following criteria:
