Clinical Trial Summary

Phase Ib, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and clinical activity of GSK2110183 dosed in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone in multiple myeloma (MM) subjects who have failed at least one line of systemic treatment. Part 1 will identify the maximum tolerated dose(s) (MTD) of the combination regimen. Schedule A - GSK2110183 administered once daily with bortezomib (1.3 mg/m2) and dexamethasone (20 mg) given biweekly. Part 2 will further explore the safety, tolerability and clinical activity of the MTD(s) identified in Part 1, including a pharmacokinetic cohort.

Description:

This is a Phase Ib, open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and clinical activity of GSK2110183 dosed in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM) subjects who have failed at least one line of systemic treatment. Part 1 will identify the maximum tolerated dose(s) (MTD) of the combination regimen.

Part 1, Schedule A will assess the safety and pharmacodynamics of GSK2110183 administered once daily with bortezomib (1.3 mg/m2) and dexamethasone (20 mg) given biweekly. It is estimated that up to 35-45 evaluable subjects will be enrolled in Part 1. Part 2 will explore further the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and clinical activity of the MTD(s) identified in Part 1. A minimum of 15 and maximum of 40 subjects will enroll in Part 2 Safety/Clinical Activity Cohort for each Schedule explored. The Part 2 PK/PD cohort will enroll up to 18 subjects. This pharmacokinetic cohort will explore whether exposure to GSK2110183 at the MTD is similar when GSK2110183 is administered alone or in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone. The same relationship will be explored for bortezomib and dexamethasone when the two drugs are given by themselves or in combination with GSK2110183. The identified MTD(s) and pharmacodynamic results in this study will inform the doses for future development of the regimen of GSK2110183 dosed in combination with bortezomib and dexamethasone in subjects with relapsed/refractory MM.

Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the contraception methods in the protocol if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrollment. For most forms of HRT, at least 2-4 weeks will elapse between the cessation of therapy and the blood draw; this interval depends on the type and dosage of HRT. Following confirmation of their post-menopausal status, they can resume use of HRT during the study without use of a contraceptive method.

Bortezomib (1.0 mg/m2) will be administered on days 1, 4, 8, and 11 of each 21-day cycle for cohort 1 for up to 8 cycles. Bortezomib (1.3 mg/m2) will be administered on days 1, 4, 8, and 11 of each 21-day cycle for up to 8 cycles. Bortezomib (1.5 mg/m2) will be administered on days 1, 8, and 15 of each 21-day cycle for up to 8 cycles.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	The recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) and schedule of GSK2110183, bortezomib and dexamethasone dosed in combination.	Dose and schedule determined using adverse events and changes in safety assessments (laboratory parameters, vital signs and ECG parameters). Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) will be defined in Part 1. The specific number of subjects to be enrolled is dependent on the number of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) reported; enrollment of up to 45 subjects in Part 1 is estimated. Subjects will continue on study from the date of randomization until the date of the first documented disease progression or when the subject meets one of the Treatment Discontinuation criteria, whichever comes first	Estimation is that each subject may be assessed for up to 48 months.
Secondary	Pharmacokinetics of GSK2110183, bortezomib and dexamethasone. Composite (or Profile) of Pharmacokinetics Time Frame: predose, 0, 5 min, 15 min, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10-12, 14-22, and 24 hrs post-dose.	Comparison of GSK2110183 area under the concentration versus time curve (AUC) values when administered alone versus when administered with bortezomib and dexamethasone. Comparison of bortezomib and dexamethasone AUC values when administered alone versus when administered with GSK2110183. Comparison of GSK2110183 maximum concentration (Cmax) values when administered alone versus when administered with bortezomib and dexamethasone. Comparison of bortezomib and dexamethasone Cmax values when administered alone versus when administered with GSK2110183.	Part 2, PK plasma samples will be collected on Cycle 0 Day 11 and Day 38 and Cycle 1 Day 11 (each day at predose, 5min, 15min, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10-12, 14-22 and 24 hrs). Part 1 and Part 2, 3 PK plasma samples will be collected on Day 1 of Cycles 2 - 8
Secondary	Clinical activity	The clinical response [ i.e. changes in the M-protein, the serum free light chains (FLC) (kappa/lambda ratio ), the appearance of or the change in the size of plasmacytomas or lytic lesions in bone ] to GSK2110183, bortezomib and dexamethasone in subjects with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma, as assessed by the International Myeloma Working Group Uniform Response Criteria	Lab assessment of disease (i.e., quantitative paraprotein, SPEP/UPEP) occurs at beginning of cycles, or every 3 wks. Extramedullary disease assessed every 12 wks by imaging, only as warranted.
Secondary	Relationships between GSK2110183, Pharmacokinetic (PK), Pharmacodynamic (PD) and clinical activity. Composite (or Profile) of Serial Pharmacokinetics Time Frame: predose, 5 min, 15 min, 1,2,3,4,6,8, 10-12, 14-22, and 24 hours post-dose.

In Part 2, Serial PK plasma samples collected on 2 days. Parts 1 and 2, samples for PD markers (BM biopsy and/or aspirate, plasma for circulating free DNA (cfDNA) or cytokine and angiogenic factors (CAFs)) collected. Parts 1 and 2, clinical activity (lab assessments, quantitative paraprotein) assessed.	Part 2, serial PK plasma samples will be collected on Cycle 0 Day 11 and Day 38 and Cycle 1 Day 11. In Part 1 and 2, PD markers (BM biopsy and aspirite, plasma for cfDNA and CAF) will be collected predose, once post dose and at time of relapse.
Secondary	Exploratory Translational Research	Phosphorylation of markers of AKT pathway activation (i.e., pAKT and pPRAS40) in bone marrow biopsy samples. Exploratory analysis of potential predictive markers of response [i.e., cytogenetics (CD45, CD138, CD38, CD19, CD56, CD20, CD117), FISH [t(4;14), t(14;16), 17p13del, del(13q)], Ki67, mutations in NRAS and KRAS] and soluble cytokine levels (i.e., VEGF, IL-6, IFG1) in plasma. BM biopsy will assess markers of AKT activation. Plasma samples will assess circulating free DNA and CAFs. BM aspirate will assess potential predictive markers of response collected for FISH and cytogenetics.	BM biopsy for AKT activation markers (predose, once post dose). Plasma for cfDNA and CAFs (predose, once post dose, at time of relapse). BM aspirate to assess potential predictive markers of response: FISH (predose) and cytogenetics (predose and CR).
