Clinical Trial Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the tolerability and safety profile of ASP1951 when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab in participants with locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumors; characterize the pharmacokinetic profile of ASP1951 when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab; and determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of ASP1951 and/or maximum tolerated dose (MTD) when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab. This study will also evaluate the anti-tumor effect of ASP1951 when administered as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab.

Description:

This is a dose-escalation and expansion study of ASP1951. The study consists of 3 periods for monotherapy and combination therapy: screening, treatment and follow up, followed by an optional Re-treatment period for participants that qualify.

The monotherapy escalation cohorts will evaluate escalating dose levels of ASP1951 in participants with locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumor malignancies including but not limited to squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), colorectal cancer, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and cervical cancer.

The combination escalation cohorts will evaluate escalating dose levels of ASP1951 in combination with a fixed dose of pembrolizumab.

For dose expansion, the tumor-specific cohorts will include participants with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (all PD-L1 status), NSCLC PDL1 high, and cervical cancer, as well as participants with any tumor types that respond to study drug treatment during dose escalation.

Participants may reinitiate study drug treatment in the optional Re-treatment period after confirmation that the participant meets all the re-treatment eligibility criteria.

After discontinuation of study drug, all participants will complete an end-of-treatment visit, along with 30-day and 90 day safety follow-up visits from the last dose of study drug.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Safety and tolerability assessed by Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT)	A DLT is defined as any of the prespecified Adverse Events (AEs) (graded using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [NCI-CTCAE] version 4.03) that the investigator (or sponsor) cannot clearly attribute to a cause other than study drug.	Up to 5 years
Primary	Safety and tolerability assessed by adverse events (AEs)	Initial and retreatment. An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a study drug, and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. AEs will be coded using the medical dictionary for regulatory activities (MedDRA) and graded using NCI-CTCAE 4.03.	Up to 5 years
Primary	Safety and tolerability assessed by immune-related AEs (irAEs)	Initial and retreatment. Most frequent immune-related AEs include rash, oral mucositis, dry mouth, colitis/diarrhea, hepatitis, pneumonitis, and endocrinopathies (hypophysitis, hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, adrenal insufficiency and Type 1 diabetes mellitus). In the event a participant is diagnosed with an irAE, then it should be reported as an AE.	Up to 5 years
Primary	Safety and tolerability assessed by infusion-related reactions (IRRs)	Initial and retreatment. IRRs are considered AEs of special interest. In the event a participant is diagnosed with an IRR, then it should be reported as an AE.	Up to 5 years
Primary	Safety and tolerability assessed by serious adverse events (SAEs)	Initial and retreatment. An AE is considered "serious" if it results in any of the following outcomes: results in death; is life-threatening; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions; results in congenital anomaly or birth defect; requires inpatient hospitalization (except for planned procedures as allowed per study) or leads to prolongation of hospitalization (except if prolongation of planned hospitalization is not caused by an AE). Hospitalization for treatment/observation/examination caused by AE is to be considered as serious; and other medically important events.	Up to 5 years
Primary	Number of participants with laboratory value abnormalities and/or adverse events related to treatment	Initial and retreatment. Number of participants with potentially clinically significant laboratory values.	Up to 5 years
Primary	Safety and tolerability assessed by 12- lead electrocardiogram (ECG)	Initial and retreatment. ECGs should be obtained after the participant has rested in supine position (or semi-recumbent, if supine is not tolerated) for 10 minutes. Any clinically significant adverse changes on the ECG will be reported as AEs.	Up to 5 years
Primary	Number of participants with vital signs abnormalities and/or adverse events related to treatment	Initial and retreatment. Number of participants with potentially clinically significant vital sign values.	Up to 5 years
Primary	Number of participants with Physical Exam abnormalities and/or adverse events related to treatment	Initial and retreatment. Number of participants with potentially clinically significant physical exam values.	Up to 5 years
Primary	Safety and tolerability assessed by ECOG performance status	Initial and retreatment. The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) scale will be used to assess performance status. Grades range from 0 (fully active) to 4 (completely disabled). Negative change scores indicate an improvement. Positive scores indicate a decline in performance.	Up to 5 years
