About
This phase II trial studies the side effects of ONC201 and paclitaxel and how well they work in treating patients with platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back (recurrent), or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). ONC201 is the first in its class of drugs that antagonize some specific cell receptors on cancer cells, leading to their destruction. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving ONC201 and paclitaxel may work better in treating patients with platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer compared to paclitaxel alone.
Full description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the combination of Akt/ERK inhibitor ONC 201 (ONC201) and paclitaxel in patients with platinum refractory or resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer. (Part 1) II. To evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) of ONC201 in combination with paclitaxel in patients with platinum refractory or resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. (Part 2) III. To evaluate progression free survival (PFS) of ONC201 in combination with weekly paclitaxel in patients with platinum refractory or resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer. (Part 2)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the durability/duration of response (DOR) of ONC201 in combination with paclitaxel.
II. To evaluate the safety and patient reported tolerability of ONC201 in combination with paclitaxel. (Part 2) III. To evaluate the disease control rate (DCR) of ONC201 in combination with paclitaxel.
IV. To evaluate the cancer antigen-125 (CA-125) and/or human epididymis factor 4 (HE-4) response of ONC201 in combination with paclitaxel in those patients with one or both of these tumor markers upregulated.
V. To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of ONC201 in combination with paclitaxel.
VI. To obtain preliminary estimates of overall survival (OS) of ONC201 in combination with weekly paclitaxel.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the immune response (specifically natural killer [NK] cell and cytokine profile) of ONC201 in combination with paclitaxel in patients with platinum refractory or resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive ONC201 orally (PO) on days 1, 8, and 15, and paclitaxel intravenously (IV) over 1 hour on days 2, 9, and 16. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. If paclitaxel must be stopped for any reason, patients may continue on ONC201 alone.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 1 year.

Inclusion criteria
Histologic diagnosis of epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
Progressed within 6 months of completing at least 1 cycle of last platinum containing regimen. Patients with refractory disease (progression during platinum-containing therapy) are eligible. This includes both adjuvant therapy and in the recurrent setting.
No more than 4 prior treatment regimens defined as investigational, chemotherapy, hormonal, biologic, or targeted therapy in the platinum resistant setting and total of 7 prior regimens in all settings will be allowed. Prior maintenance therapy with biologic or targeted agent does NOT count as a treatment regimen (e.g. Maintenance bevacizumab, Parpi, or immunotherapy).
At least one measurable lesion according to RECIST v1.1.
For the eight patients enrolled for PK/PD. Availability of tissue from carcinoma. For most patients this will be archival tissue. If there is no archival tissue available, biopsy of lesion MUST be performed prior to initiation of therapy. Lesions must be available for biopsy as well in these patients.
Any prior palliative radiation therapy must be completed at least 7 days prior to start of study treatment and patients must have recovered from any acute adverse effects prior to start of study treatment.
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) score of 0-1.
Female patients who are not of childbearing potential and fertile female patients of childbearing potential who agree to use adequate contraceptive measures from 2 weeks prior to the study and until 1 month after study treatment discontinuation, who are not breastfeeding, and who have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 3 days prior to start of study treatment.
Patients must have adequate (at baseline):
Bone marrow function: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1,500/µL. Platelets
≥100,000/µL and hemoglobin > 8.0 gm/dL, transfusion allowed up to 1 week prior to maintain Hgb >8.
Renal function: Calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) ≥35 mL/min/1.73 mm2
Hepatic function: Bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN; alkaline phosphatase (AP), aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine transaminase (ALT) less than or equal to 3 x ULN. AP, AST and ALT less than or equal to 5 x ULN is acceptable if patient has known hepatic metastasis
