Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)
To define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of STM 434 administered alone or in combination with liposomal doxorubicin chemotherapy in patients with ovarian cancer or other advanced solid tumors.
MTD will be assessed for STM 434 alone in Part 1 and in combination with liposomal doxorubicin in Part 3 once the last subject in each cohort completes 28 days of treatment.
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D)
RP2D will be assessed in Part 1 once the last subject in each cohort completes 28 days of treatment.
Radiographic response rate
Efficacy parameters will be assessed at three points in the study: once Part 1 and Part 3 are fully enrolled, and during Part 2 of the study. On average the review is expected to occur once every 8 months, for up to 24 months.
Muscle function and body composition
Efficacy parameters will be assessed at three points in the study: once Part 1 and Part 3 are fully enrolled, and during Part 2 of the study. On average the review is expected to occur once every 8 months for up to 24 months.
Study Arms (2)
STM 434
EXPERIMENTALSTM 434 and Liposomal Doxorubicin
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
STM 434 will be administered by IV injection. There are five planned dose levels, from 0.25mg/kg to 4mg/kg, which is dependent on the cohort (group) a participant is assigned to.
Liposomal doxorubicin (40 mg/m2) will be administered once every 28 days by IV infusion prior to STM 434 for those participants enrolled in Part 3 of the trial. Liposomal doxorubicin will be administered for a maximum of 6 cycles (each cycle being 28 days).
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Males and postmenopausal females, 18 years or older
- Advanced solid tumors with histologic diagnosis confirming cancer
- Patients with recurrent metastatic or locally advanced disease considered refractory or intolerant to all standard treatment available for their tumor, or those tumors for which no standard treatment is available
- Subjects with serous ovarian/fallopian tube/primary peritoneal, granulosa cell tumors or clear cell tumors considered platinum refractory/resistant, defined as having at least one prior platinum-based chemotherapeutic regimen with a subsequent platinum-free interval of \< 12 months, having progression during platinum-based therapy, or having persistent disease after a platinum-based therapy, are eligible. Intolerant subjects, defined as unable to receive further platinum due to toxicity, are eligible.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1
- Informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- History of gastrointestinal bleeding within the past 6 months
- History of epistaxis requiring medical/surgical intervention (such as nasal packing) within the past 6 months
- History of central nervous system hemorrhage
- History of bleeding diathesis or known qualitative platelet defect (including von Willebrand disease)
- Ongoing need for therapeutic anticoagulants (full dose heparin, warfarin, factor Xa or direct thrombin inhibitors; rivaroxaban, apixaban, dabigatran) chronic use of aspirin or anti-platelet agents (ticlopidine or clopidogrel)
- History of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT, Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome)
- Myocardial infarction, unstable angina within the past 6 months, or congestive heart failure New York Heart Association Class II or greater
- Chemotherapy, hormonal therapy or radiation therapy within the past 3 weeks, antibody/biologic therapy within 5 half-lives or within the past 4 weeks (whichever is longer)
- Current bowel obstruction
- Brain metastasis
- Known HIV infection and/or active Hepatitis B or C infection
- Prior treatment with any investigational product within the past 4 weeks
- Not willing to use contraception (inclusive of abstinence)
