Clinical Trial Summary

This is a single-arm, two cohort, open label phase I/II clinical trial studying the combination of oral imatinib 400 mg, once daily, and oral selinexor given once weekly (Cohort A); and single-agent oral selinexor 60 mg BIW (Cohort B). The study will consist of:

• Cohort A: an initial escalation phase (Ib) evaluating increasing doses of selinexor in combination with fixed doses of imatinib administered in repeated 28-day cycles in advanced/metastatic, imatinib-resistant GIST patients, followed by an expansion phase (II) testing for safety and preliminary evidence of antitumor activity

• Cohort B: single-agent, fixed selinexor dose in the same target population

Description:

Clinical Study Objectives:

Primary clinical study objective

Cohort A:

1.- To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II doses (RP2D) of selinexor in combination with imatinib among unresectable and/or metastatic GIST patients with prior failure to at least imatinib for advanced/metastatic disease.

Cohort B:

1. To evaluate the clinical benefit rate (CBR: CR+PR+SD ≥ 16 wks)

Secondary clinical study objectives (both cohorts A and B)

2. To evaluate progression free survival (PFS)

3. To evaluate overall survival (OS)

4. To evaluate the objective response rate (ORR)

10. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test performed within 7 days of the start of study drug administration.

11. Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Cohort A: Intolerance to first-line treatment imatinib 400mg daily.

2. Use of any approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors or investigational agents within 1 week or 5 half-lives of the agent, whichever is shorter, prior to receiving study drugs.

3. Participants who have had radiotherapy within 4 weeks prior to study entry.

4. Major surgery or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks prior to study entry.

5. Presence of symptomatic or uncontrolled brain or central nervous system metastases.

6. Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to the selinexor, imatinib or any of its components.

7. Patient has a history of another primary malignancy that has been diagnosed or required therapy within 1 year prior to the first dose of study drug (The following are exempt from the 1-year limit: completely resected basal cell and squamous cell skin cancer, curatively treated localized prostate cancer, and completely resected carcinoma in situ of any site.)

8. Unstable cardiovascular function: • Symptomatic ischemia, or • Uncontrolled clinically significant conduction abnormalities (i.e., ventricular tachycardia on antiarrhythmic agents are excluded; 1st degree atrioventricular (AV) block or asymptomatic left anterior fascicular block/right bundle branch block (LAFB/RBBB) will not be excluded), or • Congestive heart failure (CHF) NYHA Class = 3, or • Myocardial infarction (MI) within 3 months. • Left ventricular ejection fraction < 40 %. • Hypertension > 140 mm Hg systolic or > 90 mm Hg diastolic with or without antihypertensive therapy.

9. Ongoing infection > Grade 2.

10. Patients with any seizure disorder requiring medication.

11. HIV-positive individuals on combination antiretroviral.

12. Patients with active hepatitis B or C, or chronic hepatitis B or C requiring treatment with antiviral therapy.

13. Serious psychiatric or medical conditions that could interfere with treatment.

Primary	Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for the use of Imatinib in combination with Selinexor	Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is defined as the highest dose level with =1 out of 6 patients experiencing a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) during the first 28 days of treatment. Dose escalation cohort (Phase 1b) seeks to determine the frequency and characteristics of DLTs of the selinexor plus imatinib combination at each dose level during the first cycle of therapy. Phase Ib will be carried out in standard 3+3 format, based on the toxicities found during the first cycle of therapy.	32 months
