Details and patient eligibility

About

This is an open label, multicenter, dose escalation, phase Ib study to determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D), by assessing the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), safety and preliminary efficacy of selinexor in adult patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell malignancies receiving either R-DHAOx (Group A) or R-GDP (Group B). This dose escalation phase will be followed by an exploratory expansion phase in the same population with 12 patients enrolled in each group, who will receive selinexor at the RP2D.

The "3+3" design will be applied for dose escalation. The escalation will be performed independently in two distinct groups:

• Group A : Oral selinexor + R-DHAOx for 3 cycles (3-week cycles)
• Group B: Oral selinexor + R-GDP for 3 cycles (3-week cycles)

The choice of the conventional immunotherapy regimen which will be administered to each patient, R-DHAOx (Group A) or R-GDP (Group B), is left at the investigator's decision before patient's inclusion. Different dose levels for selinexor administration will be examined sequentially in each group by the Dose Escalation Committee (DEC): 4 doses of selinexor per 3-week cycle at 20 mg flat (Dose Level -1, DL-1), 40 mg flat (DL1), 60 mg flat (DL2) or 80 mg flat (DL3) will be taken orally by the patient on D1, D3, D8 and D10 of each cycle (dosing weeks = week 1 and week 2 of each 3-week cycle). Dose escalation will begin at DL1 and will continue until the MTD is exceeded or until the highest dose level defined in the study (DL3) is reached.

Dose escalation to the next planned dose level will be decided by the DEC based on the number of DLTs observed during the DLT assessment period.

The dose escalation phase will be followed by an exploratory expansion phase in the same two groups (Groups A and B), depending on the decision of the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) after review of safety data at the end of dose escalation part.

Patients enrolled in the expansion phase will receive selinexor at the RP2D defined by the IDMC, together with either of the conventional regimen R-DHAOx or R-GDP (left at the investigator's choice).

Exclusion criteria

1. Previous treatment with selinexor

2. Known central nervous system or meningeal involvement by lymphoma

3. Contraindication to any drug contained in these regimen

4. Subjects with known Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) positivity

5. Subjects with known active Hepatitis B (HB) infection (positive Ag HBs) or positive serology to hepatitis B (Ag HBs or antibody anti-HB c or positive DNA PCR) or active Hepatitis C (HCV) infection (patients with positive HCV serology are eligible only if PCR is negative for known HCV RNA)

6. Subjects with any uncontrolled active systemic infection requiring intravenous (IV) antibiotics

7. Any of the following laboratory abnormalities within 14 days prior to first administration (C1D1) of study treatment:

   1. Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1,000 cells/mm3 (1.0 x 109/L)
   2. Spontaneous (within 7 days of any platelet transfusion) platelet count < 100,000/mm3 (100 x 109/L) (75 x 109/L if due to lymphoma)
   3. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) > 5.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN)
   4. Serum total bilirubin > 2x Upper Limit of Normal (ULN), or > 5x ULN if due to Gilbert syndrome or lymphoma involvement

8. Creatinine clearance < 50 mL /min (for patients who will receive DHAOx) or < 70 mL/min (for GDP)

9. Subjects with pre-existing ≥ Grade 2 neuropathy

10. Prior history of malignancies other than lymphoma (except for basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or in situ carcinoma of the cervix or breast) unless the subject has been free of the disease for ≥ 3 years

11. Any life-threatening illness, serious active disease or co-morbid medical condition, laboratory abnormality, organ system dysfunction or psychiatric illness which, in the investigator's opinion, could compromise the patient's safety, interfere with the absorption or metabolism of selinexor, or put the study outcomes at undue risk, or that would prevent the subject from signing the informed consent form

12. Pregnant or breastfeeding women

13. Use of any standard or experimental anti-cancer drug therapy within 28 days of the initiation (Day 1) of study drug therapy (administration of glucocorticoids should not exceed 1mg/kg/day in the 14 days prior to C1D1)
