Clinical Trial Summary

This is a Phase 2, open-label, multicenter study whose principal objectives are to evaluate the efficacy and safety/tolerability of poziotinib in five cohorts of 30 previously-treated patients each.

Description:

The Screening period (Day -30 to Day 1) begins 30 days prior to poziotinib treatment on Day 1 of Cycle 1. Patients must meet all Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria and provide informed written consent prior to study procedures.

The duration of each treatment cycle is 28 days. There will be five patient cohorts. Eligible patients will be enrolled into cohorts concurrently based on EGFR or HER2 exon 20 mutation status.

• Cohort 1: HER2-positive or HER2-negative breast cancer (BC) with a HER2 activating mutation.

• Cohort 2: Colorectal cancer (CRC) with a HER2 activating mutation.

• Cohort 3: Any solid cancer, except non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), BC, or CRC with a HER2 activating mutation.

• Cohort 4: Glioblastome multiforma (GBM) with an EGFR activating mutation.

• Cohort 5: Any solid cancer, except NSCLC or GBM with an EGFR activating mutation.

All patients will be treated daily for up to 24 months unless there is disease progression, death, intolerable adverse events (AEs), or another protocol-specified reason for patient withdrawal. After treatment discontinuation, patients will be contacted every 3 months for up to 2 years after the first dose of poziotinib to assess survival.

6. Patients must have measurable disease.

7. Patients with central nervous system (CNS) metastases must have stable CNS disease and no evidence of growth on imaging for at least 4 weeks following radiation or other locoregional ablative therapy. CNS symptoms must be stable with no requirement for anti-seizure medications and/or > 2 mg/day dexamethasone equivalent, except for patients with GBM (Cohort 4), in whom anti-seizure medications and/or up to 4 mg/day dexamethasone equivalent is allowed.

8. Patients must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status = -1.

9. Patients must have adequate hematopoietic, renal, and liver functions.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Patient has an EGFR T790 mutation.

2. Patient has breast or gastric cancer without eligible HER2 mutations (see Inclusion Criteria).

3. Patients with GBM enrolled in Cohort 4 has been treated with an inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor therapy (e.g., bevacizumab).

4. Patient requires treatment with a medication that is a strong inhibitor or inducer of CYP3A4 or CYP2D6 or has been treated with such medications within 15 days of poziotinib treatment.

5. Patient has = Grade 2 skin disorders (rash), mucositis, or stomatitis within 15 days of poziotinib treatment.

6. Patient has a gastrointenstinal disorder or malabsorption that precludes oral drug treatment.

7. Patient has active liver or biliary tract disease (except for Gilbert's syndrome, asymptomatic biliary stones, liver metastasis, or stable chronic liver diseases).

8. Patient has a history of drug-induced pancreatitis.

9. Patient has a history of interstitial lung disease or pneumonitis.

10. Patient has a history of congestive heart failure Class III/IV according to the New York Heart Association Functional Classification or a serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring treatment.

11. Patient has a high risk of cardiac disease as determined by the Investigator. If patient is deemed to have a high cardiac risk, enrollment may be considered if an echocardiogram (ECHO) or multi-gated acquisition (MUGA) during Screening demonstrates a cardiac ejection fraction >= 50%.

12. Patient has a QTc interval > 470 ms.

13. Patient has a history of another malignancy within the 1 year prior to poziotinib treatment. Patients with the following concomitant neoplastic diagnoses are eligible: non-melanoma skin cancer, carcinoma in situ (including transitional cell carcinoma, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, and melanoma in situ), organ-confined prostate cancer with no evidence of progressive disease.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Objective Response Rate (ORR)	ORR was defined as the percentage of participants with confirmed complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) as assessed by the investigator using local radiology evaluation according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1). CR is defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have a reduction in the short axis to <10 millimeters (mm). PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters, in the absence of CR.	Up to 168 days
Secondary	Duration of Response (DoR)	Duration of response was defined as the time from the date that measurement criteria are first met for CR or PR until the first subsequent date that progressive disease or death is documented. CR is defined as the disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have a reduction in the short axis to <10 mm. PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters, in the absence of CR. Disease progression (PD) is defined as =20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, unequivocal progression in non-target lesions, and/or appearance of new lesions.	Up to 168 days
Secondary	Disease Control Rate (DCR)	DCR is defined as percentage of participants with best response of CR, PR, and stable disease (SD) from the first dose of poziotinib to the end of study. CR is defined as disappearance of all target and non-target lesions. Any pathological lymph nodes must have reduction in short axis to <10 mm. PR is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of all target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters, in the absence of CR. SD is defined as neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum of the longest diameter (LD) since the treatment started.	Up to 168 days
Secondary	Percentage of Participants With AE	An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation patient, temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product. Therefore, an AE can 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.	Up to 30 days after last dose of study drug (Up to 199 days)
