A Pharmacokinetics Study of the Effects of GSK2118436 on Warfarin, the Effects of Ketoconazole and Gemfibrozil on GSK2118436, and the Effects of Repeat Doses of GSK2118436 in Subjects With BRAF Mutant Solid Tumors

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Cancer

In brief

GSK2118436 is an orally administered, potent and selective small molecule BRAF inhibitor that is being developed for the treatment of BRAF mutation-positive tumors. This is a 4-part study (in 4 separate cohorts of subjects) designed to examine the interaction potential of GSK2118436, either as a perpetrator (i.e., effect of GSK2118436 on warfarin; Part A) or victim (i.e., effect of other drugs on GSK2118436; Part B: ketoconazole and Part C: gemfibrozil), as well as to evaluate the single and repeat dose pharmacokinetic parameters of GSK2118436 (Part D). A sufficient number of subjects will be screened to obtain approximately 12 evaluable subjects each for Part A, Part B, Part C and Part D. Following completion of this study, subjects may continue dosing with GSK2118436 in the roll-over study, Protocol BRF114144.

Who can join

Age: 18 and older. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.

You may qualify if…

• Male or female at least 18 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent form;
• Capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form;
• Body weight >/= 45 kg and a body mass index >/= 19 kg/m2 and </= 35 kg/m2 (inclusive);
• Able to swallow and retain oral medication;
• BRAF V600 mutation-positive tumor as determined in a CLIA-approved laboratory or equivalent (the local BRAF testing may be subject to subsequent verification by centralized testing);
• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0 or 1; NOTE: Subjects with a performance status of 2 can be enrolled if the patient's confinement to bed and inability to carry out work activities is due solely to cancer-related pain, as assessed by the Investigator;
• Women of child-bearing potential and men with reproductive potential must be willing to practice acceptable methods of birth control. Additionally, women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 14 days prior to the first dose of study medication;
• Must have adequate organ function as defined by the following values:
• Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >/=1.2 x 109/L Hemoglobin >/= 9 g/dL Platelets >/= 100 x 109/L Serum bilirubin >/= 1.5 x Upper Limit of Normal (ULN) AST and ALT >/= 2.5 x ULN; <5 x ULN if liver metastases are present (with approval of GSK medical monitor) Serum creatinine >/= ULN or calculated creatinine clearance >/= 60 mL/min PT/INR and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) >/= 1.3 x ULN Left ventricular ejection fraction >/= institutional lower limit of normal by ECHO
• CYP2C9 genotype of *1/*1 (wildtype), *1/*2 or *1/*3 (Part A only)

You may not qualify if…

• Currently receiving cancer therapy (e.g., chemotherapy with delayed toxicity, extensive radiation therapy, immunotherapy, biologic therapy) within the last three weeks; chemotherapy regimens without delayed toxicity within the last 2 weeks;
• The subject has participated in a clinical trial and has received an investigational product within the following time period prior to the first dosing day in the current study: 28 days, 5 half-lives or twice the duration of the biological effect of the investigational product (whichever is warranted by the data);
• Current use of a prohibited medication or herbal preparation or requires any of these medications during the study;
• Consumption of red wine, Seville oranges, grapefruit or grapefruit juice from 7 days prior to the first dose of study medication;
• History of sensitivity to heparin or heparin-induced thrombocytopenia;
• Any major surgery within the last 4 weeks;
• Unresolved toxicity greater than National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, version 4.0 (NCI CTCAE v4.0) [NCI, 2009] Grade 2 from previous anti-cancer therapy except alopecia;
• Presence of active GI disease or other condition (e.g., small bowel or large bowel resection) that will interfere significantly with the absorption of drugs. If clarification is needed as to whether a condition will significantly affect absorption of drugs, contact the GSK medical monitor;
• A history of known Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), or Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection (subjects with laboratory evidence of HBV clearance may be enrolled);
• Presence of invasive malignancy, other than the primary diagnosis;
• Parts B and C: Subjects with brain metastases are excluded if their brain metastases are either:
• Symptomatic Treated (surgery, radiation therapy) but not clinically and radiographically stable one month after local therapy, or Asymptomatic and untreated but > 1 cm in the longest dimension Patients with small (≤ 1 cm in the longest dimension), asymptomatic brain metastases that do not need immediate local therapy can be enrolled with the approval of the GSK medical monitor. Subjects on a stable dose of corticosteroids for more than one month, or those who have been off corticosteroids for at least two weeks can be enrolled. Subjects must also be off of enzyme-inducing anticonvulsants for more than four weeks; Note: Any brain metastases is exclusionary for Part A (must be excluded by prior imaging);
• Corrected QT (QTcB) interval >/= 480 msecs;
• History of acute coronary syndromes (including unstable angina), coronary angioplasty, or stenting within the past 24 weeks;
• Class II, III, or IV heart failure as defined by the New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional classification system; abnormal cardiac valve morphology documented by ECHO (subjects with minimal abnormalities [i.e., mild regurgitation/stenosis] can be entered on study - if clarification is needed as to whether an ECHO abnormality is minimal, please contact the GSK medical monitor); or history of known cardiac arrhythmias (except sinus arrythmias) within the past 24 weeks;
• Known immediate or delayed hypersensitivity reaction or idiosyncrasy to drugs chemically related to the study drugs, or excipients (note: to date there are no known drugs chemically related to GSK2118436 which are approved by the FDA);
