Clinical Trial Summary

This is a phase I, multi-center, open-label, dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and clinical activity of LP-168 in subjects with relapsed or refractory B-cell malignancies. LP-168 is a small molecule inhibitor.

Description:

The primary objectives for the study are to assess the safety and tolerability profile, determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and/or the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of LP-168 administered once or twice daily as a single agent dosed orally in adult subjects with relapsed/refractory B-cell Malignancies (CLL/SLL, WM, FL, MCL, MZL, DLBCL, HCL); and to characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) profile of LP-168 in adult subjects with relapsed/refractory B-cell Malignancies (CLL/SLL, WM, FL, MCL, MZL, DLBCL, HCL).

Secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate preliminary efficacy regarding the effect of LP-168 on progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), and duration of response (DOR) in adult subjects with relapsed/refractory B-cell Malignancies (CLL/SLL, WM, FL, MCL, MZL, DLBCL, HCL).

Once the MTD is declared and the RP2D is established, additional subjects will be enrolled in a cohort expansion phase (Phase 1b).

• Any anti-cancer therapy including chemotherapy, biologic or immunotherapy, radiotherapy, etc;

• Any investigational therapy, including targeted small molecule agents.

• For CLL subjects who come off BCR antagonists (BTK inhibitors, PI3K inhibitors, etc.) treatment, allow washout for 2 days as these subjects progress quickly after treatment discontinuation and then remain eligible (steroids may be given during these two days to allow disease control).

• Subjects who require immediate cytoreduction. However, subjects may receive up to two days of steroids for symptoms of impending organ impairment and remain eligible.

• Subject has received the following medications or therapies within 7 days prior to the first dose of study drug:

• Steroid therapy (at dosages equivalent to prednisone >20 mg/day) for anti-neoplastic intent (except as noted in exclusion criteria #3);

• Cytochrome P450, family 3, subfamily A (CYP3A4) strong inhibitors and strong CYP2C8 inducers/inhibitors.

• Potent CYP3A4 inducers such as rifampin, carbamazepine, phenytoin, and St. John's wort.

• Subjects require treatment with systemic acid-reducing agents including H-2-receptor antagonists and proton pump inhibitors with the following exceptions:

• Proton pump inhibitors should be discontinued at least 7 days prior and held throughout the study

• If concurrent use of an H2 blocking agent is necessary, it must be administered only between 2 and 3 hours after the dose of LP-168. If not taken during this time, the dose of H2 blocking agents should not be taken again until 2-3 hours after the next dose of LP-168.

• If concurrent use of a local antacid is necessary, it must be administered 2 or more hours before and/or 2 or more hours after the dose of LP-168.

• Subject has significant screening electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities including. 2nd degree AV block type II 3rd degree block, Grade 2 or higher bradycardia, and corrected QT interval (QTc) = 480ms.

• Serum amylase > 1.5 × ULN or serum lipase > 1.5 × ULN.

• Subject has any history of Richter's transformation for Phase 1a portion of the trial.

• Subjects who have undergone autologous/allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) therapy within 90 days of the first dose of LP-168, or patients on immunosuppressive therapy post-HSCT at the time of Screening, or currently with clinically significant graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) as per treating physician (Patients in relapse after allogeneic transplantation must be off treatment with systemic immunosuppressive agents for at least 4 weeks. The use of topical steroids and/or up to 20 mg/day prednisone or equivalent systemic steroids for ongoing GVHD is permitted.

• Subject has a history of other active malignancies other than B-cell malignancies within the past 3 years prior to study entry, with the exception of:

• Adequately treated in situ carcinoma of the cervix uteri;

• Basal cell carcinoma of the skin or localized squamous cell carcinoma of the skin;

• Previous malignancy confined and surgically resected (or treated with other modalities) with curative intent.

• Subject requires anticoagulation with Warfarin.
