ORION-1: Study of AVZO-023 as a Single Agent and in Combination With AVZO-021, and/or Endocrine Therapy in Advanced Solid Tumors
AVZO-023-1001
A Phase 1/2, First-in-human Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Antitumor Activity of AVZO-023 as a Single Agent, and in Combination With AVZO-021 and/or Endocrine Therapy in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Brief Summary
This study, the first clinical trial of AVZO-023, aims to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, maximum tolerated dose, and anti-tumor effects of AVZO-023 in patients with advanced solid tumors. AVZO-023 is an oral medication that inhibits cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4).

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Occurrence of Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) during the first cycle (Phase 1)
Number of participants with DLTs assessed for severity using CTCAE v5.0 criteria will be summarized by dose level.
Cycle 1 (28 Days)
Number of Participants with Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and lab abnormalities (Phase 1)
From baseline until end of study treatment or study completion (approximately 2 years)
Determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and/or Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) (Phase 1)
Approximately 16 months
Objective Response Rate (ORR) (Phase 2)
Defined as the proportion of patients with a confirmed Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR), as determined by the investigator by radiographic disease assessment according to RECIST v1.1.
From baseline through disease progression or study completion (approximately 2 years)
Secondary Outcomes (12)
Objective Response Rate (ORR) (Phase 1)
From baseline through disease progression or study completion (approximately 2 years)
Duration of response (DOR) (Phase 1 and Phase 2)
From baseline through time to event on study or study completion (approximately 2 years)
Progression Free Survival (PFS) (Phase 1 and Phase 2)
From baseline through time to event on study or study completion (approximately 2 years)
Overall Survival (OS) (Phase 1 and Phase 2)
Approximately 76 months
Disease control rate (DCR) (Phase 1 and Phase 2)
From baseline through disease progression or study completion (approximately 2 years)
- +7 more secondary outcomes
Study Arms (4)
Phase 1, monotherapy (Part 1A) and food effect
EXPERIMENTALEscalating doses of twice daily, oral AVZO-023 in 28-day cycles, with addition of fulvestrant
Phase 1, combination (Parts 1B)
EXPERIMENTALEscalating doses of twice daily, oral AVZO-023 in combination with once daily, oral AVZO-021 in 28-day cycles, with addition of fulvestrant
Phase 1, combination (Parts 1C)
EXPERIMENTALEscalating doses of twice daily, oral AVZO-023 in combination with once daily, oral AVZO-021, with once daily, oral letrozole in 28-day cycles
Phase 2, combination (Cohorts 2A, 2B, 2C, and 2D)
EXPERIMENTALOral doses of AVZO-023 in 28-day cycles at the RP2D determined in Part 1B/1C, in combination with: 2A) letrozole 2B) fulvestrant 2C) AVZO-021 plus fulvestrant 2D) AVZO-021 plus letrozole
Interventions

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Male or female aged ≥ 18 years old at screening with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) 0-1 and life expectancy \> 3 months
- Patients with histologically or cytologically proven advanced malignancies of preferred indications
- Measurable disease (as assessed by investigator using RECIST v1.1) is preferred in Phase 1 dose escalation, unless otherwise specified in the protocol, and in all patients in Phase 2. Bone only disease is allowed in dose escalation.
- Agree to provide molecular test report results to confirm eligibility and archival tumor samples and/or fresh biopsy, as applicable
- Adequate renal, liver, and bone marrow function
You may not qualify if:
- Patients should not have received any prior selective investigational CDK (CDK2, CDK4, CDK2/4, CDK2/4/6) inhibitors
- Has known active brain metastasis (have either previously untreated intracranial CNS metastasis or previously treated intracranial central nervous system (CNS) metastasis with radiologically documented new or progressing CNS lesions) or leptomeningeal disease
- Other concurrent invasive malignancy or a prior invasive malignancy for which treatment was completed within 3 years before the first dose on study except for adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, carcinoma in situ, or colorectal adenomatous polyps
- Last anticancer treatment within 2 weeks (4 weeks for biologic, immunotherapy or ADC) or 5 half-lives of the drug, whichever is shorter, prior to first dose on study
- Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to first dose on study
- Have received radiotherapy with a limited field of radiation for palliation within 7 days of the first dose of study treatment, except for patients receiving whole brain radiotherapy, which must be completed at least 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study treatment. Patients must have recovered from all radiation-related toxicities, not require corticosteroids, and not have active radiation pneumonitis
- Strong or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers within 2 weeks or 5 half-lives of the drug, whichever is shorter, prior to first dose on study
- History of serious cardiovascular conditions within 6 months prior to first dose on study
- Unresolved toxicities from prior therapy greater than Grade 1 (per CTCAE version 5.0) (with exceptions of alopecia, vitiligo, and ≤ Grade 2 peripheral neuropathy) prior to the first dose on study
- History of drug-induced pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease
- Confirmed loss of function mutation or deletion of Rb1 gene
