Effects of Itraconazole and Rifampin on the Blood Tazemetostat Levels

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: All Malignancies, Advanced Malignancies, Hematologic Malignancy, Solid Tumor, Follicular Lymphoma (FL), Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL), Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL), Epithelioid Sarcoma (ES), Synovial Sarcoma, Renal Medullary Carcinoma, Mesothelioma, Rhabdoid Tumor

In brief

The participants of this study will have advanced malignancies (also known as advanced cancer). The main aim of this trial will be to study the blood levels (known as pharmacokinetics) of the tazemtostat (the study drug) when administered in combination with another drug. Part 1 of the study will evaluate the interaction between the drugs tazemetostat and itraconazole. Part 2 of the study will evaluate the interaction between the drugs tazemetostat and rifampin For both Parts 1 and 2, safety and the level that effects of the study drug can be tolerated (known as tolerability) will be assessed throughout.

• Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 to 2.
• Has the ability to understand informed consent, and provide signed written informed consent.
• Life expectancy of > 3 months.
• Histologically and/or cytologically confirmed advanced metastatic or unresectable solid tumors has progressed after treatment for which there are no standard therapies available OR histologically and/or cytologically confirmed hematologic malignancies that have relapsed, or refractory disease, following at least 2 standard lines of systemic therapy for which there are no standard therapies available.
• Note: Subjects with prior radiotherapy will be included; however, radiotherapy alone will not be considered a separate systemic treatment regimen.
• Must have evaluable or measurable disease.
• Has all prior treatment (ie, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy) related clinically significant toxicities resolve to ≤ Grade 1 per National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), Version 5.0 or are clinically stable and not clinically significant, at time of consent.
• All subjects must have completed any prior chemotherapy, targeted therapy and major surgery ≥ 28 days before study entry. For daily or weekly chemotherapy without the potential for delayed toxicity, a washout period of 14 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter may be acceptable.
• Has normal hepatic function (per NCI-ODWG criteria) as well as adequate hematologic (bone marrow [BM] and coagulation factors) and renal function.
• Able to swallow and retain orally-administered medication and without clinically significant gastrointestinal abnormalities that could alter absorption such as malabsorption syndrome or major resection of the stomach or bowels.
• Females of childbearing potential (FCBP) must have a negative serum pregnancy test and must either practice complete abstinence or agree to use a highly effective method of contraception.
• Male subjects must have had a successful vasectomy OR must either practice complete abstinence or agree to use a latex or synthetic condom during sexual contact with a female of childbearing potential (FCBP) during study treatment (including during dose interruptions), and for 3 months after study drug discontinuation.
• NOTE: Male subjects must not donate sperm during study treatment (including during dose interruptions), and for 3 months after study drug discontinuation.
• Has a QT interval corrected by Fridericia's formula (QTcF) ≤450 msec.

• Use of concurrent investigational agent or anticancer therapy.
• Uncontrolled concurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, clinically significant cardiac arrhythmias, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.

• Any condition or medical problem in addition to the underlying malignancy and organ dysfunction that the Investigator feels would pose unacceptable risk.
• Has a prior history of myeloid malignancies, including myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) or T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL)/ T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL).
