Study Description

Brief Summary:

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and how well BGB-290 and temozolomide work in treating patients with gliomas (brain tumors) with IDH1/2 mutations that have come back. BGB-290 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving BGB-290 and temozolomide may work better in treating patients with recurrent gliomas.

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

(Phase I) I. Determine the safety and tolerability of the combination of PARP inhibitor BGB-290 (BGB-290) and temozolomide (TMZ) in patients with recurrent IDH1/2 mutant glioma, including the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and characterization of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) in the Phase I portion.

(Phase II) II. Determine the overall response rate of BGB-290 with TMZ in patients with recurrent IDH1/2-mutant gliomas that have progressed on TMZ and another alkylator (Arm A) in the Phase II portion.

III. Determine the overall response rate of BGB-290 with TMZ in patients with recurrent IDH1/2-mutant glioma that have failed one alkylator with >= 12 months since last treatment (Arm B) in the Phase II portion.

(Phase II)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) after treatment with BGB-290 and TMZ in recurrent IDH1/2-mutant gliomas in Arms A and B.

II. Determine the duration of response to therapy in recurrent IDH1/2-mutant glioma.

III. Confirm the safety and tolerability of BGB-290 in combination with TMZ.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. Assess tumor response rates, PFS, and OS in patients with World Health Organization (WHO) grade IV glioblastoma (GBM) treated with BGB-290 and TMZ.

II. Assess the mutational landscape via whole-exome sequencing (WES). III. Assess gene expression patterns using ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing (RNAseq).

IV. Assess the methylation profiling with Infinium methylation assays. V. Quantify 2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) in archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) specimens via liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) detection and correlate with treatment response.

VI. Correlate response with 2HG levels, somatic alterations, gene expression/methylation patterns in FFPE tumor tissue.

VII. Assess tumor tissue BGB-290 levels, 2HG, and PolyADP-ribosylation (PARylation) in a patient subset treated with drug prior to re-resection.

VIII. Evaluate changes in tumor growth rate in subjects with non-enhancing glioma based on fluid attenuated inverse recovery (FLAIR) tumor volume measurements of serial MRI exams.

IX. Assess if change in tumor growth rate (based on FLAIR tumor volume) in subjects with non-enhancing glioma before and after treatment is associated with progression by Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology for Low Grade Gliomas (RANO LGG; phase II patients only) or survival.

OUTLINE: This is a phase I, dose de-escalation study of temozolomide followed by a phase II study.

PHASE I: Patients receive PARP inhibitor BGB-290 orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28 and temozolomide PO once daily (QD) on days 1-28, 1-21, 1-14, or 1-7. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

SURGICAL PORTION: 10 patients eligible for re-resection at the time of recurrence receive PARP inhibitor BGB-290 PO BID on days 1-6 and QD on day 7 (the morning of surgery). Within 45 days after surgery, patients receive PARP inhibitor BGB-290 PO BID on days 1-28 and temozolomide on the schedule established in Phase I. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

PHASE II: Patients receive PARP inhibitor BGB-290 PO BID on days 1-28 and temozolomide PO QD on the schedule established in Phase I. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days, every 2 months for 2 years, then every 6 months thereafter.

IDH1/2-mutation status can be confirmed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) or direct deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) sequencing, provided that it is performed in a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments/College of American Pathologists (CLIA/CAP)-certified laboratory. IDH1/2 mutations must be associated with neomorphic activity of the encoded proteins (i.e. IDH1 R132, IDH2 R172, IDH2 R140, IDH1 R100, IDH1 G97, IDH1 Y139).
• Patients must have archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) specimens and mutations will be verified centrally, although this will not preclude patients with appropriate documentation of IDH1/2-mutant status from trial enrollment. Patients must have a tumor tissue form indicating availability of archived tissue from a previous surgery, completed and signed by a pathologist; sites must agree to provide this form within 14 days after treatment start.
• Patients must have measurable (defined by at least 1 cm x 1 cm) contrast-enhancing disease or measurable abnormal T2/FLAIR hyperintensity indicative of tumor by MRI imaging within 21 days of starting treatment.
• Patients must have documented molecular 1p/19q and MGMT testing. If either of these studies has not been performed previously, they can be done prior to enrollment.
• Patients must be able to undergo MRI of the brain with gadolinium. Patients must be maintained on a stable or decreasing dose of corticosteroid regimen (no increase for 5 days) prior to this baseline MRI.

• Patients must have recovered from severe toxicity of prior therapy. The following intervals from previous treatments are required to be eligible:

  • 12 weeks from the completion of radiation
  • 6 weeks from a nitrosourea chemotherapy
  • 3 weeks from a non-nitrosourea chemotherapy
  • 4 weeks from any investigational (not Food and Drug Administration [FDA]-approved) agents
  • 2 weeks from administration of a non-cytotoxic, FDA-approved agent (e.g., erlotinib, hydroxychloroquine, etc.).

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 through 4 months after the last dose of study drug. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should 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 study participation, and through 4 months after completion of BGB-290 or temozolomide administration.
• Patients must have no concurrent malignancy except curatively treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or carcinoma in situ of the cervix, breast, or bladder. Patients with prior malignancies must be disease-free for >= 5 years.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients receiving any other investigational agents are ineligible.
• Patients previously treated with a small molecule inhibitor of mutant IDH1/2 proteins are ineligible.
• Patients with a history of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to BGB-290 are ineligible.
• Patients who have received bevacizumab within the last 6 months are ineligible.
• Patients with a known hypersensitivity to TMZ are ineligible.
• Patients who have received a PARP inhibitor previously are excluded.
• Patients on enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic drugs (EIAED) are not eligible for treatment on this protocol. Patients may be on non-enzyme inducing anti-epileptic drugs or not be taking any anti-epileptic drugs. Patients previously treated with EIAEDs may be enrolled if they have been off the EIAED for 10 days or more prior to the first dose of BGB-290.
• Patients who have not recovered to < Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade 2 toxicities apart from alopecia related to prior therapy are ineligible.
• Patients with uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, clinically significant cardiac disease, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements, are ineligible.
• Pregnant women are excluded from this study because the effects of BGB-290 on a fetus are unknown. Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with BGB-290, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with BGB-290.
• Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible due to potential drug-drug interactions with BGB-290.
