Official title:
A Phase 2, Multi-Cohort Study to Investigate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Preliminary Antitumor Activity of the Anti-PD-1 Monoclonal Antibody BGB A317 in Combination With Chemotherapy as First-Line Treatment in Adults With Inoperable, Locally Advanced or Metastatic Esophageal, Gastric, or Gastroesophageal Junction Carcinoma

This is a Phase 2, multi-cohort study to investigate safety, PK, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of the monoclonal antibody BGB A317 in combination with standard chemotherapy as first-line treatment. Cohorts include an ESCC cohort and a gastric carcinoma (GC) or GEJ carcinoma cohort that will be enrolled concurrently. The study includes a screening (up to 28 days), treatment (until disease progression, intolerable toxicity, or treatment withdrawal for another reason), safety follow-up (up to 30 days following last study drug treatment), and survival follow-up phase.

Key Inclusion Criteria: 1. Pathologically (histologically or cytologically) confirmed diagnosis of either inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma that is HER2/neu negative or inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic ESCC. Note: Archival tumor tissue (paraffin blocks or at least 10 unstained tumor specimen slides) must be available for biomarker analysis. In the absence of archival tumor tissues, a fresh biopsy of a tumor lesion at baseline is mandatory. Subjects may be permitted to enroll on a case-by-case basis after discussion with the Sponsor's medical monitors if paraffin block is not available and fewer than 10 unstained slides can be provided. 2. Have received no prior systemic therapy for advanced or metastatic disease. Subject may have received prior neoadjuvant or adjuvant therapy provided it was completed at least 6 months prior to enrollment. 3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 (Protocol Appendix 3). 4. Life expectancy of at least 12 weeks. 5. Adequate organ function as indicated by the following screening laboratory values: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) =1.5×109/L Platelet count =100×109/L Hemoglobin =9 g/dL or =5.6 mmol/L (Note: Criteria must be met without a transfusion within 4 weeks before sample is drawn). Serum creatinine =1.5× upper limit of normal (ULN). Serum total bilirubin =1.5×ULN. For subjects with Gilbert's syndrome, total bilirubin must be <3×ULN) Prothrombin time/international normalized ratio (PT/INR) =1.5×ULN and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) =1.5×ULN unless subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy and PT values is within the intended therapeutic range of the anticoagulant. Aspartate transaminase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =2.5×ULN. For subjects with liver metastases, AST and ALT must be =5×ULN for subjects with liver metastases Key Exclusion Criteria: 1. History of severe hypersensitivity reactions to other mAbs; has known hypersensitivity to fluorouracil (5-FU), cisplatin, or other platinum agents 2. Unable to receive a port or peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) for ESCC subjects 3. Prior malignancy active within the 2 years prior to Cycle 1 Day 1, exceptions include the tumor under investigation in this study, and locally recurring cancers that have undergone curative intent treatment, such as resected basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast. 4. Received prior therapies targeting PD-1, PD-L1 or PD-L2 for any reason. 5. Have known active brain or leptomeningeal metastases. Subjects with brain metastases are permitted if they are asymptomatic or had previously treated brain metastases that are asymptomatic, radiographically stable and did not require steroid medications for at least 4 weeks prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 6. Active autoimmune diseases or history of autoimmune diseases that may relapse should be excluded (Protocol Appendix 5). Subjects with following diseases are allowed to undergo screening: type I diabetes, hypothyroidism managed with hormone replacement therapy only, skin diseases not requiring systemic treatment (such as vitiligo, psoriasis or alopecia), controlled celiac disease, or diseases not expected to recur in the absence of external triggering factors. 7. Requires systemic treatment with either corticosteroids (>10 mg daily prednisone equivalents) or other immunosuppressive medications within 14 days of study drug administration to treat a current condition. Note:Adrenal replacement doses =10 mg daily prednisone equivalents are permitted in the absence of active autoimmune disease; subjects are permitted to use topical, ocular, intra-articular, intranasal, and inhalational corticosteroids (with minimal systemic absorption). A brief course of corticosteroids for prophylaxis (e.g., contrast dye allergy) or for treatment of non-autoimmune conditions (e.g., delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction caused by contact allergen) is permitted. 8. History of interstitial lung disease, non-infectious pneumonitis except for those induced by radiation therapies; uncontrolled systemic diseases, including diabetes, hypertension, pulmonary fibrosis, acute lung diseases, etc. 9. Severe chronic or active infection requiring systemic antibacterial, antifungal or antiviral therapy, including tuberculosis infection, etc. 10. Uncontrollable pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or ascites requiring repeated drainage. 11. Any of the following cardiovascular criteria: - Current evidence of cardiac ischemia - Current symptomatic pulmonary embolism - Acute myocardial infarction =6 months prior to Day 1 - Heart failure of New York Heart Association Classification III or IV(Protocol Appendix 6) =6 months prior to Day 1 - Grade 2 or higher ventricular arrhythmia =6 months prior to Day 1 - Cerebral vascular accident (CVA) or transient ischemic attack (TIA) =6 months prior to Day 1 12. Has a history of alcohol or drug abuse or dependence 13. Known history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). 14. Untreated chronic hepatitis B viral (HBV) infection or chronic HBV carrier with HBV DNA =200 IU/mL (or 1000 copies/mL), or active hepatitis C virus (HCV) should be excluded. Note: subjects with inactive HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) carrier, active HBV infection with sustained anti-HBV suppression (HBV DNA <200 IU/mL or 1000 cps/mL), and subjects whose HCV has been cured can be enrolled. 15. Underlying medical conditions that, in the investigator's opinion, will be unfavorable for the administration of study drug or affect communication regarding drug toxicity or adverse events. Note: subjects whose compliance during this study is considered by the investigator to be questionable should be excluded. 16. Has been administered a live vaccine within 4 weeks prior to Cycle1 Day 1. 17. Administered a monoclonal antibody within 4 weeks for any reason prior to study Day 1 or who has not recovered (i.e., Grade 1 or lower at baseline) from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlierMedical history of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency (DPD). Note: subjects do not need to be tested for DPD at screening. 18. Medical history of dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase deficiency (DPD). Note: subjects do not need to be tested for DPD at screening. 19. Has received radiotherapy or treatment with an investigational agent within 14 days prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 20. Major surgical procedure other than for diagnostic biopsy of tumor tissue for this study or placement of a venous access device within 28 days prior to study drug administration. NOTE: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria may apply. |
