About

Phase II, single-arm study of AZD6094 (Volitinib) in combination with docetaxel, in advanced gastric adenocarcinoma patients with MET overexpression as a second-line treatment.

Volitinib is an orally available, potent, selective, small molecule c-MET inhibitor.

Subjects will receive Volitinib once daily (at the MTD determined from Phase Ib) for 21 days as one cycle.

Docetaxel 60 mg/m2 will be administered via intravenous access once every 3 weeks.

To investigate the efficacy of volitinib when given in combination with docetaxel in patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma harboring MET overexpression.

Full description

In a xenograft model Hs746T with c-Met gene amplification, suboptimal doses 0.6 mg/kg volitinib and 3 mg/kg docetaxel induced TGI of 55.8% and 80.8%, respectively, whereas combination resulted in a TGI by 101.1%, and statistical significance was seen between combination group and either of mono-therapy group. Plasma exposures of volitinib and docetaxel were determined after last dose at the end of study, and there was no significant difference between combination and single agent on exposures of either volitinib or docetaxel. More importantly, combination was well tolerant and no body weight loss was found in the animals. These results suggested that it would be worthwhile to study the combination use of volitinib and docetaxel in clinic.

    • The 1st line regimen must have contained doublet 5-fluoropyrimidine and platinum based regimen.
    • Relapse within 6 months of completion of adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy containing doublet 5-fluoropyrimidine and platinum-based regimen could be considered as 1st line therapy.
  4. Previous adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy is allowed, if completed more than 6 months prior to starting the 1st line therapy.

  5. Provision or availability of biopsy sample for analysis; e.g mandatory pre-treatment biopsy, or available diagnostic biopsy of sufficient quantity/quality

  6. Patients with MET overexpression

  7. Patients are willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits and examinations.

  8. ECOG performance status 0-1.

  9. Patients must have a life expectancy ≥ 3 months from proposed first dose date.

  10. Patients must have acceptable bone marrow, liver and renal function measured within 28 days prior to administration of study treatment as defined below:

    • Haemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL (transfusion allowed)

    • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) (does not include patients with Glibert's disease)
    • AST (SGOT)/ALT (SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x institutional upper limit of normal unless liver metastases are present in which case it must be ≤ 5x ULN
    • Serum creatinine ≤1.5 x institutional ULN

  12. Negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 28 days of study treatment, confirmed prior to treatment on day 1. for women of childbearing potential.

  13. Provision of consent for mandatory biopsy at progression

Exclusion criteria

  1. More than one prior chemotherapy regimen (except for adjuvant/neoadjuvant chemotherapy with more than 6 month wash out period) for the treatment of gastric cancer in the advanced setting.
  2. Any previous treatment with MET inhibitors
  3. Any previous treatment with docetaxel.
  4. Patients with second primary cancer, except: adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer, curatively treated in-situ cancer of the cervix, or other solid tumours curatively treated with no evidence of disease for ≤5 years.
  5. HER2 positive patients (defined by HER2 3+ by immunohistochemistry or HER2 SISH +)
  6. Patients unable to swallow orally administered medication.
  7. Treatment with any investigational product during the last 28 days before the enrollment (or a longer period depending on the defined characteristics of the agents used).
  8. Patients receiving any systemic chemotherapy, radiotherapy (except for palliative reasons), within 3 weeks from the last dose prior to study treatment (or a longer period depending on the defined characteristics of the agents used). The patient can receive a stable dose of bisphosphonates or denosumab for bone metastases, before and during the study as long as these were started at least 4 weeks prior to treatment.
  9. With the exception of alopecia, any ongoing toxicities (>CTCAE grade 1) caused by previous cancer therapy.
  10. Intestinal obstruction or CTCAE grade 3 or grade 4 upper GI bleeding within 4 weeks before the enrollment.
