About

Clinical study of oral IGF-1R inhibitor PL225B in subjects with advanced refractory solid tumors. The primary objective is to determine the maximum tolerated dose and dose limiting toxicity (ies) of oral IGF-1R inhibitor PL225B in subjects with advanced refractory solid tumors.

Full description

An open label multicentre Phase 1 study of oral IGF-1R inhibitor PL225B in subjects with advanced refractory solid tumors. This is a dose-finding trial using the modified Accelerated Titration Design with 3 new subjects per cohort and 100% dose increments in the accelerated phase followed by standard phase with 40% dose increments.Subjects will receive study drug on a daily basis for twenty-one (21) days according to the dose and schedule specified for a particular cohort of therapy. Toxicity profile of the drug will be assessed during Cycle 1 of subject treatment in each cohort for determination of Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) according to the schedule given below.

Enrollment: 70 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 90 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Subjects with fasting plasma glucose ≤ 125 mg/dL and HbA1c < 6.5 % at screening Subjects with fasting plasma glucose ≤150 mg/dL and HbA1c ≤ 7.0 % at screening for the Diabetes Expansion Cohort.

• For the Diabetes Expansion Cohort - Subjects with known history of type 2 diabetes mellitus that are well-controlled on a stable dose of oral anti-diabetic agents such as metformin and/or sulfonylureas for 4 weeks prior to screening.

• Subjects must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below:

  1. Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1500/cmm
  2. Platelets ≥ 100,000/cmm
  3. Total bilirubinwithin normal limits of the institution
  4. AST/ALT ≤ 2.5 X institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) or ≤ 5 X institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) in the presence of liver metastases
  5. Creatinine ≤ 1.5 X institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)

• Subjects willing for repeat oral dosing and follow-up, including pharmacokinetic sampling

• Women of childbearing potential and men willing to agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, during the duration of study participation and for at least 4 weeks after withdrawal from the study, unless they are surgically sterilised

• Ability to understand and the willingness to provide a written informed consent document

Exclusion Criteria

• Subjects who have received any prior chemotherapy, radiotherapy, biologic/targeted anti-cancer therapy or surgery within 4 weeks (6 weeks for monoclonal antibodies, radioactive monoclonal antibodies or any radio- or toxin- immunoconjugates) before the first study drug administration and have not recovered (to AEs < Grade 2) from the toxic effects from any prior therapy
• Subjects having received any other investigational agents within 4 weeks prior to the first study drug administration and have not recovered completely (to AEs < Grade 2) from the side effects of the earlier investigational agent
• Subjects with documented history of diabetes mellitus except for the Diabetes Expansion Cohort
• For the Diabetes Expansion Cohort - Subjects who have type 1 diabetes mellitus, maturity onset diabetes of the young, hyperglycemia due to reasons other than type 2 diabetes mellitus.
• For the Diabetes Expansion Cohort - Subjects who currently require insulin, thiazolidinediones, dual proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) agonists, glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) analogues, dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP-IV) inhibitors or have received the same in the 4 weeks prior to screening.
• Subjects with known complications of diabetes like diabetic nephropathy or diabetic retinopathy
• Subjects with known brain metastases
• Subjects with gastrointestinal abnormalities including inability to take oral medication, malabsorption or other conditions like chronic inflammatory bowel disease that may affect absorption.
• Subjects with a history of myocardial infarction or uncontrolled cardiac dysfunction during the previous 6 months
• Subjects with baseline QTc interval >470 msec at screening
• Subjects on warfarin. Prophylactic anticoagulation with low molecular weight heparin is allowed
• Subjects with history of anaphylaxis or angioedema, bronchial asthma, peptic ulcer and clinically significant food or drug allergy
• Subjects with uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements
• Women who are pregnant or nursing
• Subjects with known seropositivity to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), positive for Hepatitis B, positive for Hepatitis C (antigen positive), or known hepatic cirrhosis
