Clinical Trial Summary

This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and best dose of RO4929097 when given together with capecitabine in treating patients with refractory solid tumors. RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving RO4929097 together with chemotherapy may kill more tumor cells.


Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of RO4929097 and capecitabine administered in subjects with advanced solid tumors. (Part 1) II. To describe the dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of combined RO492097 and capecitabine. (Part 1) III. To determine the safety of RO4929097 and capecitabine administered in combination. (Part 1) IV. To determine the safety of RO4929097 and capecitabine in subjects with metastatic CRC. (Part 2a) V. To evaluate the safety of RO4929097 and capecitabine in combination for subjects with HER2/neu negative MBC. (Part 2b)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the clinical activity of RO4929097 and capecitabine administered in combination to subjects with advanced solid tumors. (Parts 1, 2a, and 2b) II. To evaluate the changes in the expression of Notch1 signaling pathway members and downstream targets of Notch by PCR including HEs1, 3 and 5; Hey 1 and 2 after treatment with RO4929097 at the MTD expansion cohorts. (Parts 1, 2a, and 2b) III. To determine the pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenomic profiles of the combination of RO4929097 and capecitabine. (Parts 1, 2a, and 2b) IV. To determine the progression-free survival (PFS) of RO4929097 and capecitabine when administered at the MTD level in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) and a history of 1 or 2 prior therapies. (Part 2a) V. To determine the response and overall survival (OS) rates following RO4929097 and capecitabine administration at the MTD level in subjects with metastatic CRC. (Part 2a) VI. To determine the overall response rate (ORR) of RO4929097 and capecitabine when administered at the MTD level to subjects when administered first or second line for HER2/neu negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC). (Part 2b) V. To determine the progression-free and overall survival rates following RO4929097 and capecitabine administration at the MTD level in subjects with HER2/neu negative MBC. (Part 2b)

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, dose-escalation study of gamma-secretase inhibitor RO4929097.

Patients receive oral gamma-secretase inhibitor RO4929097 once daily on days 1-3, 8-10, and 15-17 and oral capecitabine twice daily on days 1-14. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients may undergo tumor biopsy before and after treatment for biomarker analysis and blood sample collection periodically for pharmacokinetic and pharmacogenomic studies.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days (Part 1) or every 3 months (Parts 2a and 2b).

- Women of childbearing potential and men must use two forms of contraception (i.e., barrier contraception and one other method of contraception) at least 4 weeks prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for at least 12 months post-treatment; should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while she or her partner are participating in this study and for 12 months after study participation, the patient should inform the treating physician immediately

- Women of childbearing potential are required to have a negative serum pregnancy test (with a sensitivity of at least 25 mIU/mL) within 10-14 days and within 24 hours prior to the first dose of RO4929097 (serum or urine); a pregnancy test (serum or urine) will be administered every 4 weeks if their menstrual cycles are regular or every 2 weeks if their cycles are irregular while on study within the 24-hour period prior to the administration of RO4929097; a positive urine test must be confirmed by a serum pregnancy test; prior to dispensing RO4929097, the investigator must confirm and document the patient's use of two contraceptive methods, dates of negative pregnancy test, and confirm the patient's understanding of the teratogenic potential of RO4929097

- Female patients of childbearing potential are defined as follows:

- Patients with regular menses

- Patients, after menarche with amenorrhea, irregular cycles, or using a contraceptive method that precludes withdrawal bleeding

- Women who have had tubal ligation

- Female patients may be considered NOT to be of childbearing potential for the following reasons:
