Study of IDE196 in Patients With Solid Tumors Harboring GNAQ/11 Mutations or PRKC Fusions

Recruiting nowPhase 2

What this trial is trying to do

The researchers think tumours with GNAQ or GNA11 mutations, or PRKC gene fusions, may depend on protein kinase C (PKC) signalling. The trial tests the PKC inhibitor IDE196 alone and with binimetinib or crizotinib, while finding doses that are safe and suitable for further testing.

The idea is that blocking this pathway, alone or alongside another targeted drug, could slow tumour growth; the trial measures safety first and also looks for signs of tumour control, rather than comparing treatments for longer survival. There is no randomised comparison group, so it cannot establish whether these combinations are better than standard treatment.

Worth knowing: This is an early-phase, open-label basket trial, and the colorectal cancer group is a narrow molecular subset requiring a GNAQ/11 mutation or PRKC fusion; dose-limiting toxicity (serious side effects that restrict dosing) is the main outcome.

What is being tested

  • Drug IDE196
  • Drug Binimetinib
  • Drug Crizotinib

What it is measuring

Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT)

This is the trial's main question — the one it is designed and sized to answer. Anything else it reports is a secondary finding, and secondary findings are far more likely to be chance.

Phase 2. Tests whether the treatment works well enough to be worth a larger trial. Usually too small to prove it changes survival.

How the researchers describe it

This is a Phase 1/2, multi-center, open-label basket study designed to evaluate the safety and anti-tumor activity of IDE196 in patients with solid tumors harboring GNAQ or GNA11 (GNAQ/11) mutations or PRKC fusions, including metastatic uveal melanoma (MUM), cutaneous melanoma, colorectal cancer, and other solid tumors.

Phase 1 (dose escalation – monotherapy) will assess safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of IDE196 via standard dose escalation scheme and determine the recommended Phase 2 dose. Safety and anti-tumor activity will be assessed in the Phase 2 (dose expansion) part of the study.

Phase 1 (dose escalation – binimetib combination) will assess safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of IDE196 and binimetinib via standard dose escalation scheme and determine the recommended Phase 2 dose. Safety and anti-tumor activity will be assessed in the Phase 2 (dose expansion) part of the study.

Phase 1 (dose escalation – crizotinib combination) will assess safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of IDE196 and crizotinib via standard dose escalation scheme and determine the recommended Phase 2 dose. Safety and anti-tumor activity will be assessed in the Phase 2 (dose expansion) part of the study.

Who the trial is looking for

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patient must be ≥18 years of age and able to provide written informed consent
  • Diagnosis of the following:

o MUM: Uveal melanoma with histological or cytological confirmed metastatic disease. Metastatic disease may be treatment naïve or have progressed on or after most recent therapy. If the most recent therapy was an immune-oncology agent, PD must be confirmed.

  • If a patient is treatment naïve and human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*02:01 positive***, documentation is required to provide rationale why treatment with tebentafusp is not the ideal firstline treatment approach or of the patient's intolerance to tebentafusp.
  • **To be enrolled in the HLA-A*02:01 positive cohort, HLA status must be documented by test results from a CAP/CLIA-certified laboratory.
  • Measurable disease per RECIST v1.1
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group ≤1 and expected life expectancy of > 3 months
  • Adequate organ function at screening
  • Adequate contraceptive measures for non-sterilized male and female patients of childbearing potential

Crizotinib Combination Additional Inclusion Criteria:

  • Prior chemotherapy other therapies as applicable or major surgeries must have been completed at least 4 weeks prior to initiation of crizotinib
  • Patients with preexisting peripheral neuropathy can be included if it is Grade 1 or lower, prior to initiation of crizotinib Biopsy-e…

Where it is running

Running at 15 sites. Listed in: Australia, Canada, United States.

Individual hospitals, and whether each is currently open, are listed on the registry record. Sites open and close throughout a trial.

Worth asking your oncology team

Being listed here is not a recommendation, and no one page can tell you whether a trial is right for you. These are the questions it raises.

  • Is this trial open at a hospital I could realistically travel to?
  • Given my stage, my previous treatment and my tumour's molecular profile, would I be eligible?
  • What would I be giving up by joining — is the comparison arm the treatment I would otherwise be having?
  • What is already known about the safety of what is being tested?
