NCT05049863

Brief Summary

The hypothesis is that the addition of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and allopurinol to chemotherapy in patients with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC) will be safely tolerated and improve outcomes, as measured by response rate and progression-free survival in patients compared to other single agent chemotherapy drugs used in historical controls.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Number of study treatment related adverse events as measured by NCI-CTCAE v 5.0 (Phase I only)

    Through 30 days after completion of treatment (estimated to be 5 months)

  • Overall response rate (ORR) (Phase II and phase I patients who receive the MTD)

    * ORR is defined as the proportion of patients achieving a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) according to RECIST 1.1 * Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. Disappearance of all non-target lesions and normalization of tumor marker level. * Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.

    Through completion of treatment (estimated to be 4 months)

  • Recommended phase II dose (RP2D) (Phase I only)

    -The recommended phase II dose (RP2D) is defined as the dose level at which fewer than 2 patients of a cohort of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity during the first cycle.

    Completion of cycle 1 (each cycle is 21 days) of all enrolled Phase I participants (estimated to be 10 months)

  • Number of discontinuations due to treatment related adverse events (Phase I only)

    Through completion of treatment (estimated to be 4 months)

  • Number of DLTs in Phase I patients

    Completion of cycle 1 (each cycle is 21 days) of all enrolled Phase I participants (estimated to be 10 months)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Progression-free survival (PFS) (Phase II and phase I patients who receive the MTD)

    Through 6 months after completion of treatment (estimated to be 10 months)

  • Overall survival (OS) (Phase II and phase I patients who receive the MTD)

    Through 6 months after completion of treatment (estimated to be 10 months)

Eligibility Criteria

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

You may qualify if:

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed small cell lung cancer that has progressed on platinum-based chemotherapy and anti-PD-L1 (unless contraindicated).
  • Presence of measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 criteria
  • At least 18 years of age.
  • ECOG performance status ≤ 2
  • Normal bone marrow and organ function as defined below:
  • Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 K/cumm
  • Platelets ≥ 100 K/cumm
  • Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x IULN
  • AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) ≤ 2.5 x IULN (≤ 5 x IULN for patients with liver metastases)
  • Creatinine ≤ 1.5 x IULN OR measured or calculated creatinine clearance \> 50 mL/min for patients with creatinine levels \> 1.5 x IULN
  • Use of MMF during pregnancy is associated with increased risks of first trimester pregnancy loss and congenital malformations (especially external ear and other facial abnormalities including cleft lip and palate, and anomalies of the distal limbs, heart, esophagus, kidney, and nervous system). For this reason, women of childbearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control, abstinence) prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for 6 weeks after stopping study treatment. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she must inform her treating physician immediately. Men treated or enrolled on this protocol must also agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of the study, and 90 days after last dose of study treatment. Women must not be breastfeeding.
  • Ability to understand and willingness to sign an IRB approved written informed consent document

You may not qualify if:

  • History of other malignancies with the exception of: (a) malignancies for which the patient has no evidence of disease at time of screening, and (b) the diagnosis is unlikely to pose a competing mortality risk in the opinion of the treating provider, and (c) for which the patient does not actively require therapy.
  • Previous intolerance to irinotecan. Treatment with prior irinotecan is allowed if the treatment was not discontinued for treatment related adverse events.
  • Unable to swallow pills or take study medications orally in accordance with administration schedule outlined
  • Currently receiving any other investigational agents. A washout period of 21 days from last dose of most recent systemic therapy to C1D1 is necessary.
  • Patients with symptomatic brain metastases are excluded. Patients with clinically evident CNS hemorrhage are excluded. Patients with brain metastases treated with whole brain radiation therapy, radiosurgery, or surgery are eligible with a washout duration from completion of radiation is 14 days. Patients treated with brain metastases that have responded to systemic therapy alone are eligible if the baseline brain MRI shows no evidence of progression. Patients with asymptomatic untreated brain metastases measuring less than 10 mm are also eligible.
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to MMF, allopurinol or other agents used in the study.
  • Diarrheal illnesses such as inflammatory bowel disease that require the use of disease modifying medical therapy or steroids (patients with chronic diarrhea controlled with medications such as loperamide or diphenoxylate/atropine) are eligible if their symptoms are at baseline per discretion of treating physician and PI.
  • History of active autoimmune disease, including but not limited to systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, vascular thrombosis associated with antiphospholipid syndrome, Wegener's granulomatosis, Sjögren's syndrome, Bell's palsy, Guillain-Barré syndrome, multiple sclerosis, vasculitis, or glomerulonephritis for which the patient requires active immunosuppressive therapy.
  • Pneumonitis, including organizing pneumonias related to previous treatment requiring active treatment or supplemental oxygen support.
  • Presence of active infections or patients who are not candidates for immunosuppression with MMF.
  • Major surgery within 28 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1, or minor surgery/subcutaneous venous access device placement within 7 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1, or elective or planned major surgery to be performed during the course of the clinical trial.
  • Known clinically significant liver disease, including active viral, alcoholic, or other hepatitis, cirrhosis at a level of Child-Pugh B or worse, cirrhosis (any degree) with a history of hepatic encephalopathy or clinically meaningful ascites resulting from cirrhosis (defined as ascites from cirrhosis requiring diuretics or paracentesis), fatty liver, and inherited liver disease.
  • Active tuberculosis.
  • Infections that required the use of parenteral antibiotics within 2 weeks prior to Cycle 1 Day 1, including but not limited to hospitalization for complications of infection, bacteremia, or severe pneumonia.
  • Unresolved grade 2 or higher toxicities from previous treatment with the exception of fatigue, endocrine AEs that are being managed with hormone replacement, or alopecia.
