NCT05154994

Brief Summary

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of belinostat when given together with durvalumab in treating patients with urothelial cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) and has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Belinostat is a potential anti-cancer drug, known as a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, which means that belinostat stops the activity of HDAC enzymes (an enzyme is a protein that in small amounts can speed up a biological reaction). HDAC enzymes play an important role in cell growth and cell death. Giving durvalumab and belinostat may improve the body's ability to fight cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Incidence of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) (Phase 1A Part 1)

    Rate of DLTs during the defined DLT period for belinostat dose escalation. The number and proportion of DLTs will be reported for each dose level. An exact 95% confidence interval will be reported for each dose level with more than one patient.

    Up to 21 days

  • Incidence of DLTs (Phase 1A Part 2)

    Rate of DLTs during the defined DLT period for confirmation of belinostat for the phased triplet regimen.

    Up to 21 days

  • Incidence of adverse events (AEs) (Phase 1B)

    The incidence and frequency of AEs characterized by type, severity (as defined by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 5.0), seriousness, duration, and relationship to study treatment. Will be tabulated by dose level and cohort. Exact 95% binomial confidence intervals.

    Up to 3 years

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Rate of clinical benefit

    Up to 3 years

  • Objective response rate

    Up to 3 years

  • Duration of response

    Up to 3 years

  • Progression-free survival

    From the initiation of study therapy to disease progression per RECIST 1.1, initiation of alternative therapy, or death from any cause, assessed up to 3 years

  • Overall survival

    From the initiation of study therapy until death from any cause, assessed up to 3 years

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (durvalumab, belinostat)

EXPERIMENTAL

Phased Doublet Therapy Eligible patients enrolled will be administered durvalumab 1120 mg every 3 weeks C1 through C7 followed by durvalumab 1500 mg every four weeks C8 through C15 (T300+D). Belinostat administration will begin with Cycle 2 for 6 cycles. From cycle 8 on, durvalumab will be administered in 28-day cycles to complete up to a total of 15 cycles of treatment or until treatment discontinuation criteria is met. Belinostat will be administered at the assigned dose level on days one through five of every applicable cycle. Belinostat administration on five consecutive days is preferred. Administration within seven days of Day 1 is allowed as needed to accommodate holidays and infusion schedules. Durvalumab will be infused over 60 minutes (±10 minutes). For Cycles 2-7, belinostat will be infused over 30 minutes (-5 minutes/+15 minutes) and will be administered after durvalumab. Separate infusion bags and filters must be used for each infusion.
