Study of Onivyde with Talazoparib or Temozolomide for Recurrent Solid Tumors and Ewing Sarcoma

This study is for children, adolescents, and young adults (ages 12 months to 30 years) with solid tumors that have returned or not responded to previous treatments, including Ewing Sarcoma. It tests two drug combinations: Onivyde (which damages cancer cell DNA) with Talazoparib (which blocks DNA repair), or Onivyde with Temozolomide. The first part of the study aims to find the safest and most effective doses of these combinations. For patients with Ewing Sarcoma, the study will then compare how long patients live without their cancer getting worse (progression-free survival) with each combination. The study is currently recruiting up to 90 participants.

Study design
This is an interventional study with a planned enrollment of 90 participants. It has a Phase 1 portion to find the right doses, and a Phase 2 portion that will randomize patients with Ewing Sarcoma to one of two treatment arms.
What's involved
Onivyde is given intravenously on Days 1 and 8. Talazoparib is given orally twice on Day 1, then daily on Days 2-6. Temozolomide is given once daily on Days 1-5. The Phase 1 part measures outcomes at approximately 21 days.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
For the Phase 2 part, progression-free survival will be measured for five years following the date the last patient was randomized.

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Patients with refractory or recurrent non-central nervous system (CNS) solid tumors not amenable to curative treatment are eligible. Patients must have had histologic verification of malignancy at original diagnosis or at the time of relapse. Patients eligible for the expansion cohort, A2, will include non-ES patients with refractory or recurrent non-CNS solid tumors with a deleterious alteration in germline or somatic genes involved in HR repair and DSBs signaling, germline or somatic assessed by prior comprehensive sequencing performed in a CLIA-approved (or equivalent) facility.
Patients with refractory or recurrent Ewing sarcoma (during or after completion of first-line therapy). Refractory disease is defined as progression during first line treatment or within 12 weeks of completion of first line treatment. Recurrent disease includes patients who received first line treatment and experienced disease progression at any time point \>12 weeks from the completion of first line therapy.
Patients must have a histologic diagnosis of Ewing sarcoma with EWSR1- FLI1 translocation or other EWS rearrangement at the time of initial diagnosis. Repeat biopsy at the time of disease recurrence is strongly encouraged but it is not required/mandated for enrollment.
Patients must have either measurable or evaluable disease (see Section 7.0 for definitions). Measurable disease includes soft tissue disease evaluable by cross-sectional imaging (RECIST). Patients with bone disease without a measurable soft tissue component or bone marrow disease only are eligible for the phase 1 and phase 2 study but will not be included in the OR endpoint.
Performance level: Karnofsky \> 50% for patients \> 16 years of age and Lansky \> 50% for patients \< 16 years of age. Patients who are unable to walk because of paralysis, but who are up in a wheelchair, will be considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score.
Patients should have received first line therapy and developed either refractory or recurrent disease (first relapse).
Organ function: Must have adequate organ and bone marrow function as defined by the following parameters:
Patients with solid tumors not metastatic to bone marrow:
Peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>1,000/mm3 (1x109/L)
Platelet count \> 75,000/mm3 (75x109/L) (no transfusion within 7 days of enrollment)
Hemoglobin \> 9 g/dL (with or without support)
Adequate renal function defined as: Creatinine clearance or radioisotope GFR \> 60ml/min/1.73m2 or a serum creatinine maximum based on age/sex: age 6months to \<1 year, creatinine 0.4; 1 to \< 2 years, creatinine 0.6; 2 \< 6 years, creatinine 0.8; 6 \< 10 years, creatinine 1; 10 to \<13 years, creatinine 1.2; 13 to \< 16 years creatinine 1.5 (males) or 1.4 (females); \> 16 years, creatinine 1.7 (males) 1.4 (females)
Adequate liver function defined as: normal liver function as defined by SGPT (ALT) concentration \<5x the institutional ULN, a total bilirubin concentration \<2x the institutional ULN for age, and serum albumin \> 2g/dL.
Adequate pulmonary function defined as no evidence of dyspnea at rest and a pulse oximetry \> 94% if there is a clinical indication for determination. Pulmonary function tests are not required.
Patients must have fully recovered from the acute toxic effects of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, surgery, or radiotherapy prior to entering this study:
Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: Patient has not received myelosuppressive chemotherapy within 3 weeks of enrollment onto this study (8 weeks if received prior myeloablative therapy).
Hematopoietic growth factors: At least 7 days must have elapsed since the completion of therapy with a growth factor. At least 14 days must have elapsed after receiving pegfilgrastim.
Biologic (anti-neoplastic agent): At least 7 days must have elapsed since completion of therapy with a biologic agent. For agents that have known adverse events occurring beyond 7 days after administration, this period prior to enrollment must be extended beyond the time during which adverse events are known to occur.
Monoclonal antibodies: At least 3 half-lives must have elapsed since prior therapy that included a monoclonal antibody or 28 days have elapsed since last dose of the monoclonal antibody with complete resolution of symptoms related to treatment.
Radiotherapy: At least 2 weeks must have elapsed since any irradiation; at least 6 weeks must have elapsed since craniospinal RT, 131I-mIBG therapy or substantial bone marrow irradiation (e.g., \>50% pelvis irradiation).
Female participant who is post-menarchal must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test and must be willing to have additional serum and urine pregnancy tests during the study.
Female or male participant of reproductive potential must agree to use effective contraceptive methods at screening and throughout duration of study treatment.

Exclusion

Pregnant or breast-feeding women will not be entered on this study. Pregnancy tests must be obtained in girls who are post-menarchal. Males or females of reproductive potential may not participate unless they have agreed to use two methods of birth control: a medically accepted barrier of contraceptive method (e.g., male or female condom) and a second method of birth control during protocol therapy. Two highly effective methods of contraception are required for female patients during treatment and for at least 7 months after completing therapy. Male patients with female partners of reproductive potential and/or pregnant partners are advised to use two highly effective methods of contraception during treatment and for at least 4 months after the final dose.
Male and female participants must agree not to donate sperm or eggs, respectively, after the first dose of study drug through 105 days and 45 days after the last dose of study drug. Females considered not of childbearing potential include those who are surgically sterile (bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or hysterectomy).
  • Phase I:To determine the recommended phase 2 doses (RP2Ds) of Onivyde combined with talazoparib (Arm A) and Onivyde combined with temozolomide (Arm B) administered to children, adolescents and young adults with refractory or recurrent solid malignancies.approximately 21 days

    First cycle dose limiting toxicity (DLTs) will be used to determine the RP2Ds of the two treatment arms. The DLT is defined as any of the following events that are possibly, probably or definitely attributable to protocol therapy.

  • Phase II:To estimate the progression-free survival (PFS) of Onivyde plus talazoparib and Onivyde plus temozolomide in patients with refractory or recurrent Ewing sarcoma.for five years following the date the last patient was randomized

    The study is designed to compare the progression-free survival (PFS) of Onivyde plus talazoparib and Onivyde plus temozolomide in patients with refractory or recurrent Ewing sarcoma. PFS is defined as the time from randomization to disease progression or death, whichever is earlier.
