NCT01281150

Brief Summary

This phase I clinical trial studies the side effects and the best dose of veliparib when given together with carboplatin and paclitaxel in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by blocking them from dividing. Giving veliparib with carboplatin and paclitaxel may work better in treating patients with solid tumors.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • MTD defined as the dose level one level below the lowest dose where greater than or equal to 2 patients experience a DLT assessed by National Cancer Institute (NCI) CTCAE v. 4.0

    21 days

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Change in BRCA protein levels by immunohistochemistry

    Baseline to day 4 of course 2

  • Change in PAR and g-H2AX in tumor tissue

    Baseline to day 4 of course 2

  • Grade >= 3 non-hematological or any grade 5 DLTs as graded by the NCI CTCAE v. 4.0

    21 days

  • Incidence of adverse events as graded by the NCI CTCAE v. 4.0

    Up to 4 weeks post-treatment

  • Plasma concentration of carboplatin, paclitaxel, and veliparib using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) assay and spectrometry assay

    Baseline, at 30 minutes and at 1, 2, 4, and 8 hours on day 3 of course 1

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (veliparib, paclitaxel, carboplatin)

EXPERIMENTAL

DOSE-ESCALATION: Patients receive veliparib PO twice daily BID on days 1-5, 8-12, and 15-19 and paclitaxel IV over 1 hour and carboplatin IV over 30 minutes in course 1 and 3 hours in subsequent courses on days 3, 10, and 17. After 4 courses, patients receive paclitaxel and carboplatin on days 3 and 10 only. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. (Completed as of 12/2012) EXPANSION COHORT: Patients receive veliparib PO BID on days 1-21 and paclitaxel IV over 1 hour and carboplatin IV over 3 hours on days 3 and 10. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed solid tumor that has evidence of metastatic spread (stage IV) or is locally advanced and unresectable
  • Patients with breast cancer may have estrogen receptor positive or negative (ER+ or ER-) disease
  • Patients with breast cancer may not be human epidermal growth receptor -2 (HER2)-positive ( 3+), or fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) ratio \> 2.2
  • Patients in the biopsy expansion cohort must have "triple negative" breast cancer defined as:
  • Estrogen receptor staining \< 10%; progesterone receptor staining \<10%; Her 2 \< 2.2 by FISH, or immunohistochemistry (IHC) 0-2+
  • Patients may have been previously treated
  • In the dose escalation cohort, there is no limit to prior therapies
  • In the expansion cohort, patients may have only had 1-3 prior regimens for metastatic disease
  • Patients may have received prior carboplatin, paclitaxel, or poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor therapy as part of their previous treatment regimens
  • However, patients may NOT have received prior therapy with paclitaxel, carboplatin, and PARP inhibitor in combination
  • Patients must not have received chemotherapy within 4 weeks of starting study (or 6 weeks if prior treatment was with carmustine \[BCNU\] or mitomycin C)
  • Patients must not have received radiation within 2 weeks of starting study
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS)\< 2 (Karnofsky \> 60%)
  • Life expectancy \> 2 months
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) \>= 1,500/mcL

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients may not be receiving any other investigational agents
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to veliparib or other agents used in study

  • 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
  • Pregnant women are excluded from this study; breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with veliparib
  • Active seizure or history of seizure disorder
  • Patients with CNS metastases must be stable after therapy for CNS metastases (such as surgery, radiotherapy or stereotactic radiosurgery) for \> 3 months and must be off steroid treatment prior to study enrollment
