ABSTRACT 
 
Pevonedistat is a novel first-in-class NEDD8 activating enzyme (NAE) inhibitor that blocks the degradation 
of a subset proteins which would normally be degraded by the 26S proteasome. Pevonedistat is more 
specific than previous proteasome inhibitors because it blocks the degradation of Cullin-RING ligases 
(CRL), narrowing the targets to only a handful of key regulatory proteins important in cell survival. Phase 
1 studies of pevonedistat in adults with hematologic and non-hematologic malignancies have shown 
promising results and tolerability. Pre-clinical studies demonstrate anti-tumor activity in a variety of 
pediatric tumors including neuroblastoma, Ewing sarcoma, Wilms tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, and 
glioblastoma. In vivo experiments demonstrate additive properties of pevonedistat in combination with 
irinotecan and alkylating agents. We will use a rolling six design to conduct a phase 1 trial of pevonedistat 
in combination with irinotecan and temozolomide in pediatric patients with recurrent or refractory solid 
and brain tumors. The objectives of this study are to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and 
recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of pevonedistat in combination with irinotecan and temozolomide, as 
well as to describe the toxicities, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic properties of this combination.

2.0 
BACKGROUND 
 
2.1 
Introduction/Rationale for Development 
Pevonedistat (MLN4924) is a novel chemotherapy agent; it blocks the degradation of 
proteins that would normally be degraded by the 26S proteasome, the major mechanism of 
protein removal in the cell. Pevonedistat is more specific than previous proteasome 
inhibitors because it blocks the degradation of Cullin-RING ligases (CRL), narrowing the 
targets to only a handful of key regulatory proteins important in cell survival. Phase 1 
studies of pevonedistat in adults with both hematologic and non-hematologic malignancies 
have shown promising results with minimal adverse effects at the proposed dose level.1-5 
However, there is limited data with respect to pediatric malignancies. Preliminary data 
from the Pediatric Preclinical Testing Program (PPTP) showed promising results when 
tested against both the PPTP in vitro cell line panel as well as solid tumor xenografts.6   
 
Neddylation is an ATP-dependent process which is involved in the regulation of 
intracellular protein destruction. Similar to the ubiquitin system, the process of neddylation 
is controlled by a multistep process involving one activation enzyme (E1), several ubiquitin 
conjugating enzymes (E2), and many ubiquitin ligases (E3). Recent studies have shown 
that by inhibiting the E1 NEDD8 activating enzyme (NAE), pevonedistat is able to disrupt 
cancer cell proliferation by interfering with Cullin-RING ligases.7-10 Cullin-RING ligases 
are part of the ubiquitination cascade, a process that results in the timed degradation of 
many important proteins in the cell cycle progression, cell cycle checkpoint activation, and

cell signaling.   
 
In many malignant cell types, pevonedistat leads to re-replication of DNA in S-phase and 
resultant cell death. Inhibition of NAE results in an increase in CRL substrates Cdt1 and 
Nrf-2, both of which contribute to cell-cycle progression.11 Experiments in cancers of the 
prostate, lung, and colon, as well as glioblastoma cells have shown that Cdt1 is stabilized 
and cells continues to initiate DNA replication, resulting in multiple areas of DNA re-
replication.12 By blocking Cdt1 and Nrf-2 degradation, pevonedistat allows DNA 
replication to continue without cell division.7  This is thought to activate both apoptosis 
and senescence pathways.7,11  
 
In other cell types such as non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), the induction of tumor cell 
apoptosis by pevonedistat involves inhibition of NF-κB.13 The NF-κB pathway is involved 
in multiple cellular activities, including the induction of anti-apoptotic proteins following 
chemotherapy treatment. NAE regulates the ubiquitination and degradation of IκB-α. If 
NAE is inactivated, IκB-α is stabilized and NF-κB is unable to assert its anti-apoptotic 
effects, promoting cell death in malignant lymphoma cells.13  
 
2.1.1 
Irinotecan/Temozolomide Combination 
Due to significant preclinical antitumor activity and non-overlapping toxicities, 
irinotecan and temozolomide in combination has been used in pediatric phase 1-2 
trials in patients with recurrent or refractory solid and central nervous system 
tumors, and is broadly applicable. The combination has been well-tolerated.14-22 In 
in vitro studies, irinotecan has shown to be synergistic with pevonedistat.23 In 
ADVL0414, irinotecan and temozolomide were combined along with vincristine 
in children with refractory solid tumors.22 Zero of six patients in ADVL0414 
experienced dose limiting toxicity (DLT) at the highest doses studied (irinotecan 
90 mg/m2/day on Days 1-5, temozolomide 150 mg/m2/day on Days 1-5, vincristine 
1.5 mg/m2 on Day 1). This is a similar irinotecan/temozolomide dosing schedule 
to what we propose in this study. Irinotecan and temozolomide in combination 
with temsirolimus was studied in ADVL0918.15 Irinotecan 50 mg/m2/dose and 
temozolomide 100 mg/m2/dose were combined with temsirolimus at 25 mg/m2 
intravenous (IV) infusion on Days 1 and 8. The DLT was hypercholesterolemia in 
patients who were receiving steroids, and most likely attributable to the 
temsirolimus. None of the additional 6 patients treated with irinotecan 50 
mg/m2/dose, temozolomide 100 mg/m2/dose, and temsirolimus 35 mg/m2 IV on 
Days 1 and 8 experienced Cycle 1 DLT. This is a similar irinotecan/temozolomide 
dosing schema to what we propose in this study.

a. Irinotecan: In vitro combinations of pevonedistat and irinotecan (SN-38) in 4 
solid tumor cell lines show that irinotecan is synergistic in 2 of the cell lines 
(HCT-116 and U2OS), and additive in 1 cell line (A549). Among 13 agents 
tested in combination with pevonedistat, irinotecan ranked among the top 
quartile for synergy (Figure 1).24 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Irinotecan was also additive with pevonedistat in in vivo models. Two 
colorectal xenograft models (HCT-116 and HT-29) exhibited an additive and 
subadditive combination effect, respectively. Balb/c nude mice were used to 
create subcutaneous xenografts of HCT-116 and HT-29. Pevonedistat was 
dosed subcutaneously (SubQ) on the following two 21-day dosing schedules: 
30 mg/kg BID for 21 days and 90 mg/kg BID twice weekly for 21 days (dosing 
on Days 1, 4, 8, 11, 15, 18). Irinotecan was concurrently dosed 
intraperitoneally (IP) at 10 mg/kg twice weekly. Both dosing schedules 
exhibited additive and subadditive combination effects for HCT-116 and HT-
29, 
respectively

b. Alkylating agents: In vitro combinations of pevonedistat and standard 
chemotherapeutics show that the effect of adding alkylating agents is 
synergistic (Figure 1) (Direct communication, Takeda Pharmaceuticals 
International Co.). Of all combination agents tested, as a class, alkylating 
agents show the most synergy with pevonedistat. Alkylating agents tested 
include: dacarbazine, mitomycin C, cisplatin, carboplatin, and melphalan. 
 
Both temozolomide and dacarbazine are triazine alkylating agents which are 
converted to the active alkylating metabolite (methyl-triazene-1-yl)-
imidazole-4-carboxamide (MTIC). As described above, due to both its 
tolerability and effectiveness, temozolomide, in combination with irinotecan, 
is a common chemotherapy agent used in pediatric patients with relapsed or 
refractory disease.

In vivo melanoma xenograft models demonstrate an additive cytotoxic effect 
when pevonedistat and dacarbazine are used together. In the in vivo studies, 
dacarbazine was dosed IP at 100 mg/kg for 5 days and pevonedistat was dosed 
BID twice weekly at either 90 mg/kg or 120 mg/kg. Additive effects were seen 
at both dose levels of pevonedistat (Figure 2) (Direct communication, Takeda 
Pharmaceuticals International Co.). 
 
2.2.1.2 Pediatric in vitro and xenograft data 
 
a. In vitro data from the Pediatric Preclinical Testing (PPTP): Pevonedistat 
showed promising results when tested against the PPTP in an in vitro cell line 
panel. The median relative IC50 (rIC50) was 0.14 μM (range, 0.015 - 0.68 μM). 
The Ewing sarcoma panel was the most sensitive to pevonedistat, with an IC50 
of 31 nM. The neuroblastoma panel had a median IC50 of 287 nM. Data from 
the PPTP shows that pevonedistat treatment resulted in significant differences 
in event free survival (EFS) in 61% of solid tumor xenografts (20/33), 
including Wilms (2 of 3 xenografts), rhabdomyosarcoma (2 of 5 xenografts), 
neuroblastoma (1 of 4 xenografts), and glioblastoma (4 of 4 xenografts). 
Twenty-nine percent (9/31) of evaluable solid tumor xenografts treated with 
pevonedistat exhibited intermediate activity, as defined by an increase in the 
ratio of the median time to event (EFS T/C values >2).  Among the solid tumor 
xenograft panel, the best response was progressive disease with growth delay. 
This was observed in glioblastoma (4 of 4), Wilms (3 of 3), neuroblastoma (3 
of 4), and rhabdomyosarcoma (2 of 5). Tumor tissue of all xenografts treated 
with pevonedistat showed a marked decrease in neddylated Cullin proteins, 
regardless of sensitivity. In our neuroblastoma xenograft experiments there

was a significant decrease in tumor weight between control and pevonedistat 
treated mice. Control mice had an average tumor weight of 1.6 mg ± 0.8 mg 
versus mice treated with pevonedistat which had average tumor weights of  
0.5 mg ± 0.4 mg (p<0.05).25   
 
b. Additional in vitro data: Our preliminary data shows that neuroblastoma cell 
lines are sensitive to pevonedistat with an IC50 of 0.2-7.6 µM (Table 1). 
Treatment of the neuroblastoma cell lines LAN5, CHP212, and SHEP with 
pevonedistat resulted in a biphasic dose response curve due to increases in cell 
size with increasing drug concentrations. We are currently testing these cells 
to determine if they undergo re-replication, one of the mechanisms of 
pevonedistat-mediated cell death in carcinomas. Drug combination analysis 
with pevonedistat and doxorubicin and etoposide are ongoing in a variety of 
solid tumor cell lines.

Animal Toxicology 
The dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of pevonedistat administered as a 30 minute 
IV infusion or SubQ injection for 2 cycles (5 days of dosing followed by 14 day 
rest) or 5 cycles (4 doses given every other day followed by 14 day rest) in rats and 
dogs were GI toxicity and bone marrow suppression. Myocardial toxicity, injection 
site necrosis, enteropathy, and sepsis were seen at doses above the maximum 
tolerated dose (MTD). Most DLTs resolved after the 14 day rest period. Other 
effects observed were decreased trabecular bone formation, serum chemistry 
changes, an acute phase response, increased developmental risk to the fetus or 
embryo, and degeneration of the seminiferous epithelium of the testes. Most 
adverse events were reversed or reversing at completion of the 14 day rest period.26  
 
2.2.3 
Preclinical Pharmacokinetic Studies 
Pevonedistat selectively inhibits the NAE with a Ki ≤ 1 nM. When tested amongst 
a panel of 11 kinases, pevonedistat was 2,000 times more selective for NAE. 
Tumor cells treated with pevonedistat showed a decrease in NEDD8 Cullin levels 
and an increase in CDL substrates, consistent with inhibition of NAE.26

Phase 1 Studies 
Phase 1 studies of pevonedistat in adults with both hematologic and non-
hematologic malignancies have shown promising results and tolerability on an 
intermittent dosing schedule.1-5

In a phase 1 study of pevonedistat in adults with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) 
and acute myeloid leukemia (AML), when pevonedistat was administered on Days 
1, 3, and 5 (schedule A) every 21 days, the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was 
59 mg/m2 and the DLT was hepatotoxicity. Out of 23 patients treated at or below 
the MTD, there were 2 complete responses (CRs) and 2 partial responses (PRs) for 
an overall response rate of 17%. When pevonedistat was administered on Days 1, 
4, 8, and 11 (schedule B) every 21 days, the MTD was 83 mg/m2 and the DLT was 
multi-organ failure. Out of 19 patients treated, there were 2 PRs for a response rate 
of 10%.5  
 
In a phase 1 trial of pevonedistat monotherapy in adult patients with advanced solid 
tumors, pevonedistat was well tolerated on an intermittent dosing schedule.3 In 
patients receiving pevonedistat administered on Days 1-5 (schedule A) the MTD 
was 50 mg/m2 and the DLT was grade 3 elevated transaminases (n=3). 
Additionally, two patients died during Cycle 1 of treatment-related multi-organ 
failure (including liver failure) (n=1) and disease progression (n=1). Due to the 
multi-organ failure and DLTs, the Days 1-5 continuous dosing schedule was 
deemed intolerable. In schedule B, patients received pevonedistat on Days 1, 3, 
and 5 of a 21-day cycle along with oral dexamethasone pre-treatment. The MTD 
was 50 mg/m2 and the DLTs were elevated transaminases (n=1) and 
hyperbilirubinemia (n=2). In schedule C, patients received pevonedistat without 
oral dexamethasone on Days 1, 3, and 5 of a 21-day cycle. The MTD was 67 mg/m2 
and the DLTs were hyperbilirubinemia and elevated AST (n=2). In this phase 1 
trial of pevonedistat in adults with advanced solid tumors, the majority of patients 
had colorectal cancer (n=11), melanoma (n=9), or breast cancer (n=8). Fifty-three 
percent (n=26) of patients experienced Grade ≥ 3 AEs: anemia (n=5), elevated 
ALT (n=3), and 2 patients each for the following: congestive heart failure, 
dyspnea, fatigue, elevated AST, hyperbilirubinemia, hyponatremia, hypokalemia, 
hypophosphatemia, nausea, vomiting. One patient on schedule A had a partial 
response and 80% (n=12/15) of evaluable patients on schedule B and 69% 
(n=11/16) on schedule C had stable disease with a median duration of 2 (range, 
0.5-7.4) and 2.1 (range, 0.6-3.6) months, respectively. 
 
Similar results were shown in a phase 1 trial of pevonedistat in 37 patients with 
metastatic melanoma.1 Patients received pevonedistat IV on either Days 1, 4, 8, 11 
(schedule A, 26 patients) or 1, 8, 11, 15 (schedule B, 11 patients) of a 21 day cycle. 
The MTD was determined to be 209 mg/m2, with DLTs of Grade 3 
hypophosphatemia, myocarditis, renal failure and increased creatinine. The most 
common AEs were fatigue (68%), diarrhea (49%), anemia (41%), myalgia (41%), 
nausea (35%), constipation (32%), vomiting (32%), arthralgia (30%), decreased 
appetite (30%), dizziness (27%), and peripheral neuropathy (27%). Thirty-eight 
percent of patients experienced at least one SAE, 16% of which were drug related.  
 
Pevonedistat was also tested in a phase 1 study for patients with relapsed/refractory 
multiple myeloma or lymphoma.4 In the 44 patients treated on this study, the MTD 
was found to be 110 mg/m2 (Days 1, 2, 8, 9 of a 21 day cycle) and 196 mg/m2 
(Days 1, 4, 8, 11 of a 21 day cycle). DLTs were febrile neutropenia, transaminase 
elevations, muscle cramps, and thrombocytopenia. There were no treatment related 
deaths. The most common AEs were fatigue and nausea. 
 
Among the phase 1 monotherapy studies, 1 patient had a DLT of Grade 4 cardiac 

                         ADVL1615

failure which was attributed to be related to pevonedistat and subsequently 
resolved. This patient received 147 mg/m2 of pevonedistat. Myocardial ischemia 
and atrial fibrillation occurred in 3 (1%) patients. All of the arrhythmias 
experienced by patients on the phase 1 studies were supraventricular, and all but 1 
were unrelated. The patient with related atrial fibrillation had pre-existing risk 
factors for cardiac disease. In the phase 1 study in which pevonedistat was 
combined with azacitidine in elderly patients with AML, one patient experienced 
cardiac failure which was attributed as unrelated. Tachycardia was found to be an 
expected adverse drug reaction.26  
 
There have been two phase 1 studies in adults of pevonedistat in combination with 
standard chemotherapy, one in patients with AML and another in patients with 
solid tumors. In a phase 1 study of pevonedistat in combination with azacitidine in 
elderly adults with AML who were considered unfit for conventional 
chemotherapy, the MTD of pevonedistat was 20 mg/m2 in combination with 
azacitidine.  Pevonedistat was administered on Days 1, 3, 5 of a 28-day cycle in 
combination with azacitidine 75 mg/m2 on Days 1-5 and 8-9.  Four patients 
experienced the DLT of increased transaminases. At least one adverse event (AE) 
was experienced by 64% (n=27) of patients. The most common AEs were febrile 
neutropenia (n=12), pneumonia (n=4), sepsis (n=3), pyrexia (n=2) and epistaxis 
(n=2).  In 18 response-evaluable patients, there were 6 CRs (33%) 4 PRs (22%).26 
 
The other combination study evaluated patients with advanced solid tumors treated 
with pevonedistat in combination with docetaxel (Arm 1), carboplatin lead-in and 
carboplatin + paclitaxel (Arm 2), and gemcitabine (Arm 3).  Pevonedistat was 
administered on Days 1, 3, and 5 of a 21-day cycle in Arms 1 and 2, and on Days 
1, 8, and 15 of a 28-day cycle for Arm 3. Fifty-eight patients were enrolled (Arm 
1 = 22 patients, Arm 2 = 26 patients, Arm 3 = 10 patients), corresponding to 230 
cycles of pevonedistat. The most common AEs were fatigue (48%), nausea (43%), 
AST increased (34%), anemia (34%), neutrophil count decreased (29%), 
constipation (28%), ALT increased (28%), and diarrhea (28%). Twelve patients 
experienced DLTs: 8 had increased LFTs, 3 had febrile neutropenia, and 1 had 
afebrile neutropenia. The MTDs for Arms 1 and 2 were 25 mg/m2 and 20 mg/m2 
respectively. The MTD for Arm 3 was not calculated because the treatment arm 
was closed for intolerability. There were 7 total PRs, 3 each in Arm 1 and Arm 2 
carboplatin + Paclitaxel, and 1 PR in Arm 2 lead-in with carboplatin.26

Phase 2 Studies 
Two studies are currently enrolling. 
 
- 
Study 2001: A Phase 2, randomized, controlled Open-Label Clinical study of 
the efficacy and safety of Pevonedistat plus Azacitidine versus single-agent 
azacitidine in patients with higher-risk myelodisplastic syndromes, chronic 
myelomococytic leukemia, and low-blast acute myelogenous leukemia.

2.3.3 
Pharmacology/Pharmacokinetics/Correlative and Biological Studies 
Pharmacokinetic (PK) studies of pevonedistat (25-83 mg/m2/dose) in adults with 
non-hematologic malignancies demonstrated a half-life (t½) of 5-8 hours,

maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of 106-1,340 ng/mL, and an area under the 
curve (AUC0-24h) between 703 to 5,110 ng*hr/mL. PK studies in adults with 
hematologic malignancies at doses 25-147 mg/m2 demonstrated a t½ of 3-9 hours, 
Cmax of 200-2,200 ng/mL, and an AUC0-24h between 1,130-6,780 ng*hr/mL. In both 
adults with non-hematologic and hematologic malignancies, pevonedistat Cmax and 
AUC0-24hr generally increased dose dependently and there was no apparent 
accumulation following once-daily dosing.27 Following IV administration, 
pevonedistat concentrations ascended rapidly and declined in a bi-exponential 
manner by 24 hours after the end of infusion. As the dose was increased, a third 
compartment of drug disposition began to emerge in patients with quantifiable 
drug concentrations beyond 24 hours post-infusion.5  
 
Pharmacodynamic analyses of patients with hematologic and non-hematologic 
malignancies have shown that pevonedistat stabilizes IB in peripheral blood 
mononuclear cells (PBMC) as well as increases Cdt-1 and Nrf-2 in skin biopsies 
from treated patients.27

Overview of Proposed Pediatric Study 
This is a phase 1 dose escalation of pevonedistat as a single agent and in combination with 
irinotecan and temozolomide for patients with refractory or recurrent solid tumors, 
including CNS tumors and lymphoma. Pevonedistat will be administered in combination 
with IV irinotecan and PO temozolomide in a 28-day cycle for Cycle 1 and 21-day cycles 
thereafter in Part A1 (patients ≥ 12 months and ≤ 21 years). Part A2 will enroll infants  
(≥ 6 months to < 12 months) one dose level behind the dose level at which the patients in 
Part A1 are enrolling, in order to maximize the safety for infant subjects. Pharmacokinetics 
will be obtained in all patients (see Section 8.3). Pharmacodynamic studies will be obtained 
in consenting patients (see Section 8.4). 
 
A cycle of therapy is considered to be 28 days for the first cycle and 21 days for cycles 
thereafter. A cycle may be repeated 17 times, up to a total duration of therapy of 12 months. 
 
Pevonedistat will be administered IV over 1 hour on Days 1, 8, 10, and 12 of a 28-day 
cycle for Cycle 1, and on Days 1, 3, and 5 of a 21-day cycle for Cycle 2 and beyond. After 
the initial dose of pevonedistat (Cycle 1 Day 1), subsequent doses will be given in 
conjunction with irinotecan and temozolomide. The MTD in adult phase 1 studies in adults 
given in combination with standard chemotherapy with advanced solid tumors treated on 
this schedule is 20-25 mg/m2. Since in this study pevonedistat will be combined with 
irinotecan and temozolomide, a relatively well-tolerated regimen, the starting dose will be 
15 mg/m2, 75% of the adult MTD. Part A2 will open to enrollment on Dose Level 1 (15 
mg/m2) once Part A1 has escalated to Dose Level 2 (20 mg/m2). In order to obtain single 
agent PK data, pevonedistat will be given as a single dose one week prior to initiating 
combination therapy with irinotecan and temozolomide. 
 
The industry partner does not have plans to develop pevonedistat as a single agent in

pediatrics. Thus, this study is designed to determine the safety and pharmacokinetics of 
pevonedistat alone and in combination with irinotecan and temozolomide. 
 
2.6 
Rationale for Amendment #5 (addition of dose level 4) 
Pevonedistat, a first in class inhibitor of NEDD8 activating enzyme (NAE), prevents the 
activation of Cullin-RING ligases (CRL) necessary for proteasome mediated degradation 
of key regulatory proteins important in cell survival. In adults with solid tumors, the 
maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in combination with chemotherapy is 20-25 mg/m2. 28,29  
 
As a single agent in adults with MDS/AML the MTD for pevonedistat infusions on days 
1, 3, and 5 per cycle was determined to be 59 mg/m2 and for melanoma or advanced solid 
tumors, was determined to be 67 mg/m2. The recommended phase 2 dose for pevonedistat 
monotherapy for that schedule is 50mg/m2.1,30  In adults, the predominant dose limiting 
toxicity (DLT) was hepatoxicity.  
 
In our current Phase 1 Study of Pevonedistat (MLN4924) a NEDD8 Activating Enzyme 
Inhibitor, in Combination with Temozolomide (TMZ) and Irinotecan (IRN) in Pediatric 
Patients with Recurrent or Refractory Solid Tumors (ADVL1615), 18 patients have 
enrolled and all were eligible and evaluable for cycle 1 dose limiting toxicity (DLT) 
assessment. Six patients each enrolled on pevonedistat dose levels 1 (15mg/m2), 2 
(20mg/m2), and 3 (25mg/m2).  No pediatric patients experienced a DLT, and only 1 patient 
each experienced grade 3 elevated AST and elevated ALT, which resolved and did not 
meet criteria for dose-reduction.33  
 
The pharmacokinetics (PK) of pevonedistat were similar in adult and pediatric studies. In 
our pediatric study, the mean area under the curve (AUC) at the 25 mg/m2 dose level on 
day 8 (in combination with irinotecan and temozolomide) was 1296 hr•ng/mL, half-life (T 
½) was 5-6 hours, time to maximum concentration (Tmax) was 1 hour, and average 
clearance was 20 L/hr/m2, comparable with adult trials (Figure 1).31 Both AUC and 
maximum concentration (Cmax) increased with dose level, but unlike the adult data, the 
increase appeared to be greater than dose-proportional. This was reflected in the Day 1 
clearance which showed a small decrease with dose suggesting non-linear clearance.  
 
Given that the recommended Phase 2 dose of pevonedistat as a monotherapy for the current 
schedule is 50 mg/m2 and the observed good tolerability of the combination of 
pevonedistat, irinotecan and temozolomide in pediatric patients at 25 mg/m2, we propose 
amending our trial to include a dose level 4 of 35 mg/m2. Based on our pediatric PK data, 
we expect this dose level will result in a 40% increase in AUC and Cmax, equivalent to 
approximately an adult dose of 45 mg/m2. If dose level 4 proves intolerable, we propose 
opening an expanded PK cohort at the 25 mg/m2 dose (dose level 3).

PATIENT ELIGIBILITY 
 
All clinical and laboratory studies to determine eligibility must be performed within 7 days prior to 
enrollment unless otherwise indicated. Laboratory values used to assess eligibility must be no older 
than seven (7) days at the start of therapy. Laboratory tests need not be repeated if therapy starts 
within seven (7) days of obtaining labs to assess eligibility. If a post-enrollment lab value is outside 
the limits of eligibility, or laboratory values are older than 7 days, then the following laboratory 
evaluations must be re-checked within 48 hours prior to initiating therapy: CBC with differential, 
bilirubin, ALT (SGPT), and serum creatinine. If the recheck is outside the limits of eligibility, the 
patient may not receive protocol therapy and will be considered off protocol therapy. Imaging 
studies must be obtained within 14 days prior to start of protocol therapy (repeat the tumor imaging 
if necessary).  
 
 
Clarification in timing when counting days: As an example, please note that if the patient’s last day 
of prior therapy is September 1st, and the protocol requires waiting at least 7 days for that type of 
prior therapy, then that patient cannot be enrolled until September 8th.   
 
Important note: The eligibility criteria listed below are interpreted literally and cannot be 
waived (per COG policy posted 5/11/01). All clinical and laboratory data required for 
determining eligibility of a patient enrolled on this trial must be available in the patient’s 
medical or research record which will serve as the source document for verification at the 
time of audit.

See Appendix XIII for Therapy Delivery Maps for Cycle 1 and all subsequent cycles. 
 
A cycle of therapy is considered to be 28 days for Cycle 1 and 21 days for Cycle 2 and 
subsequent cycles. Therapy will be discontinued if there is evidence of progressive disease 
or drug related dose-limiting toxicity that requires removal from protocol therapy. Patients 
may continue on protocol therapy for up to 17 cycles (approximately 12 months). 
 
Pevonedistat will be administered intravenously over 60 minutes on Days 1, 8, 10, and 12 
of Cycle 1 and on Days 1, 3, and 5 of Cycles 2+ (starting dose is 15 mg/m2 [Dose Level 
1]). 
 
Cefixime will be administered starting at least two days prior to the start of irinotecan, 
during, and 3 days after the last dose of irinotecan of each cycle for a total of at least 10 
days.  
 
For Cycle 1, cefixime will be administered on Days 6-15 and Days 27-28. 
 
For Cycles 2+, cefixime will be administered on Days -1 through 8 and Days 
20 through 21.  
 
 
 Days 27 and 28 of Cycle 1 are the same as Days -1 and 0 of Cycle 2. Days 20 and 21 of 
Cycles 2+ are the same as Days -1 and 0 of subsequent cycles. 
 
Drug doses should be adjusted based on the BSA calculated from height and weight 
measured within 7 days prior to the beginning of each cycle. 
 
Method of Administration: Patients with solid tumors, including CNS tumors and 
lymphoma, will receive pevonedistat IV over one hour. In Cycle 1, pevonedistat will be 
administered as a single agent on Day 1 and in combination with oral temozolomide and 
IV irinotecan on Days 8, 10, and 12. In Cycles 2+, pevonedistat will be administered in 
combination with oral temozolomide and IV irinotecan on Days 1, 3, and 5 (see Appendix 
IV for temozolomide dosing nomogram and Section 9.4.4 for administration instructions 
for patients who cannot swallow temozolomide capsules whole). Irinotecan is administered

to accrual. 
 
5.4.2 
Part A2: Inter-Patient Escalation 
Patients enrolling on Part A2 of the study will enroll one dose level behind the 
dose level at which patients in Part A1 are enrolling. Part A2 will open to 
enrollment on Dose Level 1 once Part A1 has escalated to Dose Level 2. Once the 
MTD is determined in Part A1, patients may enroll onto the Part A1 MTD. If at 
any time 2 or more evaluable patients at a lagging dose level experience a DLT, 
Part A2 will close to further accrual. 
 
5.4.3 
Intra-Patient Escalation 
Intra-patient dose escalation is not allowed.  
 
5.5 
Grading of Adverse Events 
Adverse events (toxicities) will be graded according to the NCI Common Terminology 
Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0. All appropriate treatment areas should 
have access to a copy of the CTCAE version 5.0. A copy of the CTCAE version 5.0 can be 
downloaded 
from 
the 
CTEP 
web 
site 
http://ctep.cancer.gov/protocolDevelopment/electronic_applications/ctc.htm. 
Any 
suspected or confirmed dose-limiting toxicity should be reported immediately (within 24 
hours) to the Study Chair. 
 
5.6 
Definition of Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) 
DLT will be defined as any of the following events. The DLT observation period for the 
purposes of dose-escalation will be the first cycle of therapy. Refer to Section 6.3 for 
specific criteria for patients < 12 months of age at the time of the non-hematological DLT. 
 
Dose limiting hematological and non-hematological toxicities are defined differently.   
 
5.6.1 
Non-hematological dose-limiting toxicity for patients ≥ 12 months of age: 
5.6.1.1 All Grade 3 or greater non-hematological toxicity not clearly related to the 
underlying disease and attributable to protocol therapy will be considered 
a DLT except: 
 
 Grade 3 nausea and vomiting < 3 days duration 
 Grade 3 elevation of ALT/AST/bilirubin, that returns to Grade  1 
or baseline prior to the time for the next treatment cycle.  
NOTE:  For the purposes of this study the ULN for ALT is defined 
as 45 U/L and for AST is defined as 50 UL. Adverse event grades 
will be based on increases above the upper limit of normal, 
regardless of the subject’s baseline. See section 5.6.3 and 6.2.4. See 
Appendix III for nomogram.  
 Grade 3 hypophosphatemia (See section 6.2.5), hypokalemia, 
hypocalcemia or hypomagnesemia responsive to supplementation. 
 Grade 3 arthralgia/myalgia that returns to Grade ≤ 1 prior to the start 
of the next cycle or within 14 days of optimizing oral analgesics 
(whichever is shorter). 
 
5.6.2 
Non-hematological dose-limiting toxicity for patients < 12 months of age: 
5.6.2.1 Any ≥ Grade 2 non-hematological toxicity not clearly related to the 
underlying disease and attributable to the protocol therapy will be 
considered a DLT with the specific exclusion of Grade 2 liver enzyme

elevation, including ALT/AST/bilirubin, that returns to Grade ≤ 1 or 
baseline prior to the time for the next treatment cycle.  
 
NOTE: For the purposes of this study the ULN for ALT is defined as 45 
U/L and for AST is defined as 50 U/L. Adverse event grades will be based 
on increases above the upper limit of normal, regardless of the subject’s 
baseline. See Appendix III for toxicity grading table. 
 
5.6.2.2 Other pevonedistat-related non-hematologic toxicities Grade 2 or greater 
that, in the opinion of the investigator, require dose reduction or 
discontinuation of therapy with pevonedistat. 
 
5.6.3 
Non-hematological toxicity that causes a delay of  14 days between treatment 
cycles. 
 
NOTE: Allergic reactions that necessitate discontinuation of study drug will not 
be considered a dose-limiting toxicity. 
 
5.6.4 
Hematological dose limiting toxicity 
5.6.4.1 Hematological dose limiting toxicity attributable to protocol therapy is 
defined as: 
 
 Grade 4 neutropenia for > 7 days. 
 Grade 4 anemia unexplained by underlying malignancy. 
 Platelet count < 25,000/mm3 on 2 separate days, or requiring a 
platelet transfusion on 2 separate days, within a 7 day period. 
 Myelosuppression that causes a delay of > 14 days between 
treatment cycles.  
 
NOTE:  Grade 3 or 4 febrile neutropenia will not be considered a dose-
limiting toxicity. 
 
6.0 
DOSE MODIFICATIONS FOR ADVERSE EVENTS 
 
The Study Chair must be notified of any dosage modification or use of myeloid growth factor. 
 
6.1 
Dose Modifications for Hematological Toxicity (all age cohorts) 
 
6.1.1 
Patients who have dose-limiting neutropenia (Grade 4 neutropenia of > 7 days 
duration or delay in the start of the next cycle for > 14 days due to neutropenia) 
with no other dose-limiting toxicity should receive the same doses in the next cycle 
with myeloid growth factor support 24-48 hours after completion of irinotecan, 
temozolomide, and pevonedistat. Patients MUST NOT receive growth factor in 
the first cycle. If dose-limiting neutropenia recurs after myeloid growth factor is 
added, start the next cycle with a decrease in temozolomide to 75% of the original 
dose (75 mg/m2/dose) on Days 1-5. If hematologic dose limiting toxicity occurs at 
75% of the original dose of temozolomide, then pevonedistat dose level should be 
decreased to the next lower dose level.  If dose limiting neutropenia recurs after 
use of growth factor and dose reductions of temozolomide and pevonedistat the 
patient should be removed from protocol therapy. 
 
6.1.2 
For dose-limiting thrombocytopenia, after counts recover, start the next cycle with 

                         ADVL1615 
THIS PROTOCOL IS FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY, SEE PAGE 1 FOR USAGE POLICY 
 
Version Date: 08/27/2020 
 
Page 32 
a decrease in temozolomide to 75% of the original dose (75 mg/m2/dose) on Days 
1-5. Patients should continue to receive the full doses of pevonedistat and 
irinotecan. If dose limiting thrombocytopenia occurs at 75% of the original dose 
of temozolomide, then pevonedistat dose level should be decreased to the next 
lower dose level and the irinotecan should be given at full dose. 
 
6.1.3 
Patients who have a dose-limiting hematological toxicity that does not resolve to 
eligibility parameters within 21 days after the planned start of the next treatment 
cycle must be removed from protocol therapy. 
 
6.2 
Dose Modifications for Non-Hematological Toxicity (for patients ≥ 12 months) 
 
6.2.1 
Patients who have any dose-limiting non-hematological toxicity (as defined in 
Section 5.6.1) may continue on protocol therapy upon meeting eligibility lab 
requirements or baseline but should receive subsequent doses of pevonedistat at 
the next lower dose level. Irinotecan and temozolomide should be continued at the 
same dose. 
 
6.2.2 
If the same non-hematological dose-limiting toxicity recurs after one dose 
reduction, the patient must be removed from protocol therapy. 
 
6.2.3 
Patients who have a dose-limiting non-hematological toxicity that does not resolve 
to baseline or eligibility within 21 days after the planned start of the next treatment 
cycle must be removed from protocol therapy. 
 
6.2.4 
Pevonedistat dose modification for hepatic toxicity: 
In all cycles, AST, ALT, and bilirubin should be checked prior to each dose of 
pevonedistat and then once weekly for the remaining weeks of the study. It is 
anticipated that LFTs (AST, ALT, and occasionally bilirubin) may be elevated for 
approximately 48 hours following the end of the 1st pevonedistat infusion. See 
Appendix III for toxicity grading table. 
For Grade 2 or 3 AST, ALT, or bilirubin on or after Cycle 1 Day 8, pevonedistat 
should be held. Once the elevated AST, ALT, or bilirubin returns to ≤ Grade 1 by 
the end of the current cycle, then pevonedistat dose may be resumed at the same 
dose. If a dose is delayed due to increased LFTs, pevonedistat needs to be 
administered by Day 25 of Cycle 1 or Day 18 of subsequent cycles (within a cycle 
there should be a maximum of 13 days between doses). 
For Grade 4 AST, ALT, or bilirubin on or after Cycle 1 Day 8, the pevonedistat 
dose should be held for the remainder of the cycle. If the elevated AST, ALT, or 
bilirubin return to ≤ Grade 1, then pevonedistat may be restarted at the next cycle 
at the next lower dose level. 
Interventions for Dose Modifications Secondary to Elevated AST, ALT, or bilirubin 
Grade 2 
Hold pevonedistat until resolved to < Grade 1 
Grade 3 
Hold pevonedistat until resolved to < Grade 1 
Grade 4 
Hold pevonedistat for remainder of cycle. For subsequent cycle resume 
at next lower dose level if resolved to < Grade 1 
For pevonedistat, a minimum of 1 full calendar day between any 2 doses should be maintained, 
and a maximum of 3 doses of pevonedistat within Cycles 2+ must not be exceeded. There should 
be a maximum of 13 days between doses within a given cycle.

Page 33 
 
6.2.5 
Pevonedistat dose modification for hypophosphatemia: 
If hypophosphatemia is ≥ Grade 3, study drug treatment should not be resumed 
until the hypophosphatemia is ≤ Grade 2. Hypophosphatemia should be evaluated 
(including severity and etiology), monitored, and treated according to institutional 
guidelines. 
6.3 
Dose Modifications for Non-Hematological Toxicity (for patients < 12 months at the 
time of the DLT) 
Patients less than 12 months of age who have a ≥ Grade 2 non-hematological toxicity 
attributable to the study drug will have pevonedistat held as per Section 6.2 and this will 
be considered a DLT with the specific exclusion of Grade 2 liver enzyme elevation, 
including ALT/AST/bilirubin, that returns to Grade ≤ 1 or baseline prior to the time for the 
next treatment cycle (see Section 6.2.4). Patients should receive subsequent cycles of the 
drug but with dose modifications according to Section 6.2. 
 
7.0 
SUPPORTIVE CARE AND OTHER CONCOMITANT THERAPY 
 
7.1 
Concurrent Anticancer Therapy 
Concurrent cancer therapy, including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, or 
biologic therapy may NOT be administered to patients receiving study drug. If these 
treatments are administered the patient will be removed from protocol therapy. 
 
7.2 
Investigational Agents 
No other investigational agents may be given while the patient is on study. 
 
7.3 
Supportive Care 
Appropriate antibiotics, blood products, antiemetics, fluids, electrolytes and general 
supportive care are to be used as necessary. See Section 4.2.7 for drugs that should not be used 
concomitantly due to potential interactions with pevonedistat and irinotecan. See Section 5.1 
and Appendix VIII for diarrhea prophylaxis and treatment recommendations. 
 
7.4 
Growth Factors 
Growth factors that support platelet or white cell number or function can only be 
administered in accordance with Section 6.1.1 or for culture proven bacteremia or invasive 
fungal infection. The Study Chair should be notified before growth factors are initiated. 
 
7.5 
Concomitant Medications 
Strong CYP3A4 inducers (see Appendix VII) are prohibited for the duration of the study. 
Strong inducers of CYP3A4 should be discontinued within 14 days prior to the first dose 
of pevonedistat.  
 
Concomitant use of strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 (see Appendix VII), UGT1A1 inhibitors 
(such as diclofenac, ketoconazole, probenecid, silibinin, tacolimus, nilotinib, and 
atazanavir), and BCRP inhibitors (cyclosporine, eltrombopag, gefitinib) also should be 
avoided because of potential for increased irinotecan toxicity. 
 
Acetaminophen may be used judiciously but should not exceed a dose of 37 mg/kg/day 
(maximum 2 g in 24 hours).

EVALUATIONS/MATERIAL AND DATA TO BE ACCESSIONED 
 
8.1 
Required Clinical, Laboratory and Disease Evaluation 
All clinical and laboratory studies to determine eligibility must be performed within 7 days 
prior to enrollment unless otherwise indicated. Laboratory values used to assess eligibility 
(see Section 4.0) must be no older than seven (7) days at the start of therapy.  Laboratory 
tests need not be repeated if therapy starts within seven (7) days of obtaining labs to assess 
eligibility.  If a post-enrollment lab value is outside the limits of eligibility, or laboratory 
values are older than 7 days, then the following laboratory evaluations must be re-checked 
within 48 hours prior to initiating therapy: CBC with differential, bilirubin, ALT (SGPT) 
and serum creatinine.  If the recheck is outside the limits of eligibility, the patient may not 
receive protocol therapy and will be considered off protocol therapy. Imaging studies must 
be obtained within fourteen (14) days prior to start of protocol therapy (repeat the tumor 
imaging if necessary). See Appendix XIII for Therapy Delivery Maps for Cycle 1 and all 
subsequent cycles.

8 If a solid tumor patient is suspected to have or has a history of bone marrow involvement then a pre-study bone marrow 
biopsy and/or aspirate is required. This should then be repeated with each tumor disease evaluation if pre-study bone marrow 
was positive for metastatic disease. 
*Check prior to each dose of pevonedistat, then weekly for remaining weeks of cycle. If patients have Grade 2, 3, or 4 ALT/AST/bilirubin 
on or after Cycle 1 Day 8, AST/ALT/bilirubin should be checked at least every other day until recovery to ≤ Grade 1. See Section 6.2.4 
for more details.  
 
8.2 
Radiology Studies 
 
8.2.1 
Central Radiology Review for Response:  Patients who respond (CR, PR) to 
therapy or have long term stable disease (SD) (≥ 6 cycles) on protocol therapy will 
be centrally reviewed. COG Operations Center will notify the Imaging Center of 
any patient requiring central review. The Imaging Center will then request that the 
treating institution forward the requested images for central review. The central 
image evaluation results will be entered into RAVE for review by the COG 
Operations Center and for data analysis.  
 
The images are to be forwarded electronically to the Imaging Research Center at 
Children’s Hospital Los Angeles via the ImageInBox.   
 
COG institutions that are not connected via the ImageInBox can send the images 
on CD ROM or USB flash drive. Submitted imaging studies should be clearly 
marked with the COG patient ID, study number (ADVL1615), and date and 
shipped to Syed Aamer at the address below: 
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
8.3 
Pharmacokinetics (required) 
 
8.3.1 
Description of Studies and Assay 
Pharmacokinetics (PK) will be performed to determine the PK of pevonedistat in 
children. Pharmacokinetic analysis will be conducted at a centralized laboratory 
using a GLP-validated liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-
MS/MS) assay. 
 
Individual pevonedistat plasma concentration-time data will be analyzed using 
standard noncompartmental methods. The following PK parameters of 
pevonedistat will be estimated with Cmax, Tmax, AUC0-24h, CL/F, half-life, and 
AUC0-∞ (as data permit). Individual values and descriptive statistics of 
pevonedistat plasma concentration-time data and PK parameters will be listed and 
tabulated by treatment/study day. Individual and mean pevonedistat plasma 
concentration data will also be plotted over time per treatment/study day.

instruction for proper centrifugation force and time. 
 
Immediately following centrifugation, gently remove plasma from the 
packed cells and transfer into 2 appropriately labeled 2.0 mL cryogenic vials. 
To ensure a more homogeneous sample, transfer all plasma into one cryovial. 
From there, split the plasma evenly between the 2 aliquots.  A minimum of 
0.6 mL needs to be obtained for each aliquot. 
 
Cap the labeled storage tubes and freeze the plasma samples immediately at 
approximately 
-70°C or lower. If a -70°C freezer is not available, freeze and store samples 
at -20°C. No more than 45 minutes will elapse between blood collection and 
freezing the plasma sample. 
 
Store samples frozen at approximately -70°C or lower until shipment. 
 
Note: If a -70°C freezer is not available, the samples may be stored at 
approximately -20°C in a commercial grade freezer with no auto-defrost until

CEFIXIME 
 
 
 
 
 
 (11/17/17) 
(Suprax®) NSC# NA 
 
9.2.1 
Source and Pharmacology 
Cefixime is a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic for oral administration that 
inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to one or more of the penicillin-
binding proteins and interfering with the final transpeptidation step of 
peptidoglycan synthesis. Its spectrum of activity is similar to other third-generation 
agents, including Enterobacteriaceae, and β-lactamase producing H. influenzae 
and N. gonorreae, and Staph. Aureus. When taken orally, it is about 40%-50% 
absorbed whether administered with or without food. The area under the time 
versus concentration curve is greater by approximately 10%-25% with the oral 
suspension than with the tablet after doses of 100 to 400 mg, when tested in normal 
adult volunteers. This increased absorption should be taken into consideration if 
the oral suspension is to be substituted for the tablet. Cefixime serum half-life is 
approximately 3-4 hours. It is excreted primarily by the kidney. There is no 
evidence of metabolism of cefixime in vivo.

Pregnancy Category B  
Teratogenic effects were not observed in animal reproduction studies. Cefixime 
crosses the placenta and can be detected in the amniotic fluid. There are no well-
controlled studies of cefixime in pregnant women; effects of cefixime on the fetus 
are unknown. An increase in most types of birth defects was not found following 
first trimester exposure to cephalosporins. It is not known whether cefixime is 
excreted in human milk. 
 
9.2.3 
Formulation and Stability 
Cefixime is available in scored 400 mg film coated tablets, 400 mg capsules, 100 
mg chewable tablets, and 200 mg chewable tablets. The chewable tablets are tutti-
frutti flavor and contain aspartame and fd&c red #40 aluminum lake. Cefixime is 
also available in two strengths as a powder for oral suspension, which when 
reconstituted, provides either a 100 mg/5 mL or 200 mg/5 mL suspension. The 
powder for oral suspension is strawberry flavored and contains sodium benzoate,

IRINOTECAN 
 
 
 
 
 (03/07/17) 
 [CPT-11,Camptothecin-11,7-ethyl-10-(4-[1-piperidino]-1-piperidino)-carbonyloxy-
camptothecin), Camptosar®], NSC #616348 
 
9.3.1 
Source and Pharmacology 
Irinotecan is a semisynthetic water-soluble analog of camptothecin (a plant 
alkaloid isolated from Camptotheca acuminata). Irinotecan is a prodrug that 
requires conversion, by the carboxylesterase enzyme to the topoisomerase-I 
inhibitor, SN-38 in order to exert anti-tumor activity. SN-38 is approximately 
1000 times more potent than irinotecan. Camptothecins interact specifically with 
the enzyme topoisomerase I which relieves torsional strain in DNA by inducing 
reversible single-strand breaks. Irinotecan and its active metabolite SN-38 bind to 
the topoisomerase I-DNA complex and prevent religation of these single-strand 
breaks. Current research suggests that the cytotoxicity of irinotecan is due to 
double-strand DNA damage produced during DNA synthesis when replication 
enzymes interact with the ternary complex formed by topoisomerase I, DNA, and 
either irinotecan or SN-38. Renal excretion is a minor route of elimination of 
irinotecan. The majority of the drug is metabolized in the liver. SN-38 is 
conjugated to glucuronic acid and this metabolite has no anti-tumor activity. The 
extent of conversion of SN-38 to its glucuronide has been inversely correlated with 
the risk of severe diarrhea, because the other major route of SN-38 excretion is 
biliary excretion by canalicular multispecific organic anion transporter (cMOAT) 
which presumably leads to mucosal injury. In addition, APC and NPC are 
oxidative metabolites of irinotecan dependent on the CYP3A4 isoenzyme. After 
intravenous infusion of irinotecan in humans, irinotecan plasma concentrations 
decline in a multiexponential manner, with a mean terminal elimination half-life 
of about 6 to 12 hours. The mean terminal elimination half-life of the active 
metabolite SN-38 is about 10 to 20 hours. Irinotecan is 30% to 68% bound to 
albumin and SN-38 is approximately 95% bound to albumin.

Pregnancy & 
Lactation 
Fetal toxicities and teratogenic effects of irinotecan have been noted in animals at 
doses similar or less than those used in humans. Toxicities include: decreased 
skeletal ossification, multiple anomalies, low birth weight and increased fetal 
mortality. It is not known if irinotecan is excreted into breast milk but it is 
excreted into rat milk. 
(L) Toxicity may also occur later 
 
9.3.3 
Formulation & Stability 
Each mL of irinotecan injection contains 20 mg irinotecan (on the basis of the 
trihydrate salt), 45 mg sorbitol, and 0.9 mg lactic acid. When necessary, pH has 
been adjusted to 3.5 (range, 3.0 to 3.8) with sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric 
acid. Irinotecan is available in single-dose amber glass vials in 40 mg (2 mL), 
100 mg (5 mL), 300 mg (15 mL), and 500 mg (25 mL). Store at controlled room 
temperature 15°-30°C (59°-86°F). Protect from light. It is recommended that the 
vial (and backing/plastic blister) should remain in the carton until the time of use.  
 
9.3.4 
Guidelines for Administration 
See Treatment and Dose Modifications sections of the protocol. 
 
IV Administration: Irinotecan must be diluted prior to infusion. Irinotecan should 
be diluted in D5W, (preferred) or NS to a final concentration range of 
0.12-2.8 mg/mL. The solution is physically and chemically stable for up to 24 
hours at room temperature (approximately 25°C) and in ambient fluorescent 
lighting. Solutions diluted in D5W and stored at refrigerated temperatures 
(approximately 2°-8°C), and protected from light are physically and chemically 
stable for 48 hours. Refrigeration of admixtures using NS is not recommended due 
to a low and sporadic incidence of visible particulates. Care should be taken to 
avoid extravasation; the use of a central line is suggested.

TEMOZOLOMIDE - ORAL  
 
 
(06/30/14) 
(Temodar, Temodal) NSC #362856 
 
 
 
9.4.1 
Source and Pharmacology 
An orally administered alkylating agent, a second generation imidazotetrazine. A 
prodrug of MTIC, temozolomide spontaneously decomposes to MTIC at 
physiologic pH. Exerts its effect by cross-linking DNA. This is likely a site-specific 
alkylation at the O6-position of guanine with some effect at the N7 position. 
Temozolomide reaches its peak concentration in 1 hour. Food reduces the rate and 
extent of absorption. It has an elimination half-life of 1.13 hr (intraperitoneally) and 
1.29 hr (orally) with an oral bioavailability of 0.98. Total apparent body clearance is 
100 mL/min/m2 and plasma elimination half-life is ~ 100 minutes.

Pregnancy & 
Lactation 
Pregnancy Category D 
Adequate, well-controlled studies have not been conducted in humans. Women of 
childbearing potential should be advised against becoming pregnant while taking 
temozolomide and for at least 6 months following the end of therapy. Temozolomide 
administration to rats and rabbits at 3/8 and 3/4 the human dose resulted in the 
development of malformations of the external organs, soft tissues, and skeleton. 
These animal studies also demonstrated embryolethality (increased resorptions) at 
similar doses. There is no information available regarding the transmission of 
temozolomide during lactation; women should avoid breastfeeding while receiving 
temozolomide. 
 
 
 
9.4.3 
Formulation and Stability 
Temozolomide capsules are available in six different strengths (5, 20, 100, 140, 
180, 250 mg). The capsules vary in size, color, and imprint according to strength. 
In the US, capsules are packaged in 5-count and 14-count bottles. In other countries 
temozolomide may be packaged in 5-count, 14-count or 20-count bottles. 
Temozolomide capsules are stored at controlled room temperature. 
 
9.4.4 
Guidelines for Administration 
See Treatment and Dose Modifications sections of the protocol. 
 
There is a potential for medication errors involving temozolomide capsules 
resulting in drug overdosages, which may have been caused by dispensing/taking 
the wrong number of capsules per day and/or product usage exceeding the 
prescribed dosing schedule. 
 
When dispensing, it is extremely important that prescribing and dispensing include 
clear instructions on which capsules, and how many of each capsule(s) are to be 
taken per day. Only dispense what is needed for the course, and clearly indicate 
how many days of dosing the patient will have and how many days are without 
temozolomide dosing. When counseling patients, it is important for each 
patient/parent to understand the number of capsules per day and the number of 
days that they take temozolomide. It is also important for the patient/parent to 
understand the number of days that they will be off the medication.  
 
Each strength of temozolomide must be dispensed in a separate vial or in its 
original container (e.g., bottle or sachet). Based on the dose prescribed, determine 
the number of each strength of temozolomide capsules needed for the full course 
as prescribed by the physician. For example, 275 mg/day for 5 days would be 
dispensed as five 250 mg capsules, five 20 mg capsules, and five 5 mg capsules. 
Label each container with the appropriate number of capsules to be taken each day. 
Dispense to the patient/parent, making sure each container lists the strength (mg)

Page 52 
per capsule and that he or she understands to take the appropriate number of 
capsules of temozolomide from each bottle or vial to equal the total daily dose 
prescribed by the physician. Institutions that have the capability to dispense 
temozolomide as daily doses in a blister pack may do so, taking specific 
precautions to ensure that the appropriate dose is provided and that the patient is 
educated to understand the daily dosing regimen. 
 
For children unable to swallow the capsules whole, the oral capsules may be 
formulated into a suspension. To prepare a 10 mg/mL suspension triturate the 
contents of ten 100 mg capsules (1000 mg), 500 mg povidone K-30 and 25 mg 
anhydrous citric acid dissolved in 1.5 mL purified water in a glass mortar to form a 
uniform paste. To the paste add 50 mL of Ora-Plus® by adding a small amount, 
mixing, and then adding the balance. Transfer to a glass graduated cylinder. Add 
Ora-Sweet® or Ora-Sweet® SF to a total volume of 100 mL by rinsing the mortar 
with small amounts of the syrup (Ora-Sweet® or Ora-Sweet® SF). Rinse at least 
four times. Package in an amber plastic prescription bottle. The packaged suspension 
is stable for 7 days at room temperature or 60 days in the refrigerator. The suspension 
should be shaken well before each use. Procedures for proper handling and disposal 
of cytotoxic drugs should be used when preparing the suspension.34 
 
Alternatively, the capsules can be opened and mixed with apple sauce or juice.

11.0 
STATISTICAL AND ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS 
 
11.1 
Sample Size and Study Duration 
 
Part A1: Patients ≥ 12 months and ≤ 21 years of age: 
A minimum of 4 evaluable patients will be required to complete this dose escalation study 
if 2 subjects experience a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) at Dose Level 1 followed by 2 
subjects experiencing a DLT at Dose Level -1. The projected maximum number of 
evaluable patients is 24 which includes 6 patients at each of Dose Levels 1-3 as well as 6 
additional patients for PK analysis. Therefore, the projected maximum number of patients 
enrolled into this study allowing for 20% inevaluability is 30, and this number is expected 
to be accrued over 15-30 months. The study design includes several contingencies that may 
increase the maximum sample size if all contingencies are needed to estimate the MTD. A 
maximum of 53 patients may be possible in the unlikely scenario that dose levels 1-3 
require expansion to 12 patients plus 6 additional patients for steady state analysis and a 
20% inevaluable rate. The maximum sample size of 53 patients could accrue over 27-53 
months.  
 
Part A2: Patients ≥ 6 months and < 12 months of age: 
Patients enrolling on Part A2 of the study will enroll one dose level behind the dose level 
at which patients in Part A1 are enrolling. Up to 6 evaluable patients may enroll in each 
lagging dose level. Once the MTD is determined in Part A1, up to 6 evaluable patients may 
enroll onto the Part A1 MTD. If at any time 2 or more evaluable patients at a lagging dose 
level experience a DLT, Part A2 will close to further accrual. A maximum of 23 patients 
is anticipated for Part A2, which accounts for 20% inevaluability rate. 
 
Part A2 will open to enrollment on Dose Level 1 once Part A1 has escalated to Dose Level 
2. If the dose level assigned to patients in Part A1 is de-escalated, then patients in Part A2 
will continue on treatment at the assigned dose level and new patients will continue to be 
enrolled at this dose level as well. 
 
Amendment 5 (October 2019) 
Amendment 5 will add dose level 4 (35 mg/m2) to the dose escalation part of this study. 
This amendment will require a minimum of 2 evaluable patients and a maximum of 15 
additional patients. The maximum includes 6 patients at dose level 4, 6 additional patients 
for PK analysis, and 20% inevaluability. The current enrollment rate is approximately 1 
patient per month, and this number is expected to be accrued within 15 months. If dose 
level 4 is expanded to 12 patients due to DLTs of different classes, then the absolute 
maximum number of patients enrolled is 23. This would require up to 23 months for 
accrual. 
 
Part A2 is expected to enroll a maximum of 15 patients including 6 at dose level 3, 6 at 
dose level 4, and 20% inevaluability.  
 
As of 6/30/19, total of 18 patients have been enrolled in Part A1. No patients have enrolled 
in Part A2. Therefore, the maximum number of patients required to complete this study 
overall is expected to be 48, and the absolute maximum is 56.

11.2.1 Evaluable For Adverse Events 
Any patient who receives at least one dose of the study drug(s) or who experiences

a dose-limiting toxicity is considered evaluable for Adverse Events. In addition, 
for the dose-escalation portion during Cycle 1, patients must receive all prescribed 
doses of pevonedistat and at least 85% of the prescribed dose of irinotecan and 
temozolomide per protocol guidelines and must have the appropriate toxicity 
monitoring studies performed to be considered evaluable for dose limiting toxicity. 
Patients who do not have DLT and are not considered evaluable for toxicity will 
be replaced. 
 
11.2.2 Maximum Tolerated Dose 
 
The MTD will be the maximum dose at which fewer than one-third of patients 
experience DLT (See Section 5.5) during Cycle 1 of therapy.  
 
 
In the unlikely event that two DLTs observed out of 6 evaluable patients are 
different 
classes 
of 
Adverse 
Effects 
(e.g. 
hepatotoxicity 
and 
myelosuppression), AND all of the following conditions are met, expansion of 
the cohort to 12 patients will be considered:  
 
•  One of the DLTs does not appear to be dose-related 
•  The Adverse Effects are readily reversible 
•  The study chair, DVL statistician, DVL committee chair or vice chair, and 
IND sponsor all agree that expansion of the cohort is acceptable 
 
If fewer than 1/3 of patients in the expanded cohort experience dose-limiting 
toxicities, the dose escalation can proceed. 
 
 
The DLTs observed in the pharmacokinetic (PK) expansion cohort will be 
counted towards the total number of DLTs observed at the MTD during the 
dose escalation portion of the study. If ≥ 1/3 of the cohort of patients at the 
MTD (during the dose escalation plus the PK expansion) experience DLT then 
the MTD will be exceeded.  
 
11.3 
Dose Escalation and Determination of MTD 
 
The rolling six phase 1 trial design will be used for the conduct of this study.35 Two to six 
patients can be concurrently enrolled onto a dose level, dependent upon (1) the number of 
patients enrolled at the current dose level, (2) the number of patients who have experienced 
DLT at the current dose level, and (3) the number of patients entered but with tolerability 
data pending at the current dose level. Accrual is suspended when a cohort of six has 
enrolled or when the study endpoints have been met.  
 
Dose level assignment is based on the number of participants currently enrolled in the 
cohort, the number of DLTs observed, and the number of participants at risk for developing 
a DLT (i.e., participants enrolled but who are not yet assessable for toxicity). For example, 
when three participants are enrolled onto a dose cohort, if toxicity data is available for all 
three when the fourth participant entered and there are no DLTs, the dose is escalated and 
the fourth participant is enrolled to the subsequent dose level. If data is not yet available 
for one or more of the first three participants and no DLT has been observed, or if one DLT 
has been observed, the new participant is entered at the same dose level. Lastly, if two or 
more DLTs have been observed, the dose level is de-escalated. This process is repeated for 
participants five and six. In place of suspending accrual after every three participants, 
accrual is only suspended when a cohort of six is filled. When participants are inevaluable 
for toxicity, they are replaced with the next available participant if escalation or de-
escalation rules have not been fulfilled at the time the next available participant is enrolled

If two or more of a cohort of up to six patients experience DLT at a given dose level, then 
the MTD has been exceeded and dose escalation will be stopped (see Section 11.2.2 for 
exception to rule). 
 
In addition to determination of the MTD, a descriptive summary of all toxicities will be 
reported. 
 
11.4 
Inclusion of Children, Women and Minorities 
 
The study is open to all participants regardless of gender or ethnicity.  Review of accrual 
to past COG studies of new agents demonstrates the accrual of both genders and all NIH-
identified ethnicities to such studies.  Efforts will be made to extend the accrual to a 
representative population, but in a Phase 1 trial which will accrue a limited number of 
patients, a balance must be struck between patient safety considerations and limitations on 
the number of individuals exposed to potentially toxic or ineffective treatments on the one 
hand and the need to explore gender, racial, and ethnic aspects of clinical research on the 
other. If differences in outcome that correlate to gender, racial, or ethnic identity are noted, 
accrual may be expanded or additional studies may be performed to investigate those 
differences more fully.

Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Studies and Response Analysis 
 
A descriptive analysis of pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of pevonedistat will be 
performed to define systemic exposure, drug clearance, and other pharmacokinetic 
parameters. The PK parameters will be summarized with simple summary statistics, 
including means, medians, ranges, and standard deviations (if numbers and distribution 
permit).   
 
While the primary aim of this study is to evaluate the toxicity of pevonedistat, patients will 
have disease evaluations performed as indicated in Section 8.1. Disease response will be 
assessed according to RECIST criteria for patients with solid tumors, and will be reported 
descriptively. 
 
All these analyses will be descriptive and exploratory and hypotheses generating in nature. 
 
 
12.0 
EVALUATION CRITERIA 
 
12.1 
Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 
The descriptions and grading scales found in the revised NCI Common Terminology 
Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0 will be utilized for AE reporting. All 
appropriate treatment areas should have access to a copy of the CTCAE version 5.0. A 
copy of the CTCAE version 5.0 can be downloaded from the CTEP web site 
http://ctep.cancer.gov/protocolDevelopment/electronic_applications/ctc.htm. 
 
 
12.2 
Response Criteria for Patients with Solid Tumors  
See the table in Section 8.0 for the schedule of tumor evaluations. In addition to the 
scheduled scans, a confirmatory scan should be obtained on the next consecutive cycle 
following initial documentation of objective response. 
 
Response and progression will be evaluated in this study using the revised Response 
Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guideline (version 1.1).36  Key points are 
that 5 target lesions are identified and that changes in the largest diameter (unidimensional 
measurement) of the tumor lesions but the shortest diameter of malignant lymph nodes are 
used in the RECIST v 1.1 criteria.

Version Date: 08/27/2020 
 
Page 58 
12.2.1 Definitions 
 
12.2.1.1 Evaluable for objective response: Eligible patients who receive at least 
one dose of protocol therapy will be considered evaluable for response. 
Evaluable patients who demonstrate a complete or partial response 
confirmed by central review before receiving non-protocol anti-cancer 
therapy will be considered a responder. All other evaluable patients will 
be considered non-responders. 
 
12.2.1.2 Evaluable Non-Target Disease Response: Eligible patients who have 
lesions present at baseline that are evaluable but do not meet the 
definitions of measurable disease and have received at least one dose of 
protocol therapy will be considered evaluable for non-target disease. 
The response assessment is based on the presence, absence, or 
unequivocal progression of the lesions. 
 
12.2.2 Disease Parameters 
 
12.2.2.1 Measurable disease: Measurable lesions are defined as those that can be 
accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be 
recorded) as ≥ 20 mm by chest x-ray, as ≥ 10 mm with CT scan, or ≥ 10 
mm with calipers by clinical exam. All tumor measurements must be 
recorded in millimeters (or decimal fractions of centimeters). 
 
NOTE: Tumor lesions that are situated in a previously irradiated area 
might or might not be considered measurable. If the investigator 
thinks it appropriate to include them, the conditions under which 
such lesions should be considered must be defined in the 
protocol. 
 
12.2.2.2 Malignant lymph nodes: To be considered pathologically enlarged and 
measurable, a lymph node must be ≥ 15 mm in short axis when assessed 
by CT scan (CT scan slice thickness no greater than 5 mm).  At baseline 
and in follow-up, only the short axis will be measured and followed. 
 
12.2.2.3 Non-measurable disease: All other lesions (or sites of disease), including 
small lesions (longest diameter < 10 mm or pathological lymph nodes 
with ≥ 10 to < 15 mm short axis), are considered non-measurable 
disease. 
Bone 
lesions, 
leptomeningeal 
disease, 
ascites, 
pleural/pericardial 
effusions, 
lymphangitis 
cutis/pulmonitis, 
inflammatory breast disease, and abdominal masses (not followed by CT 
or MRI), are considered as non-measurable. 
 
NOTE: Cystic lesions that meet the criteria for radiographically defined 
simple cysts should not be considered as malignant lesions 
(neither measurable nor non-measurable) since they are, by 
definition, simple cysts. ‘Cystic lesions’ thought to represent 
cystic metastases can be considered as measurable lesions, if 
they meet the definition of measurability described above. 
However, if non-cystic lesions are present in the same patient, 
these are preferred for selection as target lesions. 
 
12.2.2.4 Target lesions: All measurable lesions up to a maximum of 2 lesions per 

                         ADVL1615 
THIS PROTOCOL IS FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY, SEE PAGE 1 FOR USAGE POLICY

Page 59 
organ and 5 lesions in total, representative of all involved organs, should 
be identified as target lesions and recorded and measured at baseline.  
Target lesions should be selected on the basis of their size (lesions with 
the longest diameter), be representative of all involved organs, but in 
addition should be those that lend themselves to reproducible repeated 
measurements.  It may be the case that, on occasion, the largest lesion 
does not lend itself to reproducible measurement in which circumstance 
the next largest lesion that can be measured reproducibly should be 
selected.  A sum of the diameters (longest for non-nodal lesions, short 
axis for nodal lesions) for all target lesions will be calculated and 
reported as the baseline sum diameters.  If lymph nodes are to be 
included in the sum, then only the short axis is added into the sum.  The 
baseline sum diameters will be used as reference to further characterize 
any objective tumor regression in the measurable dimension of the 
disease. 
 
12.2.2.5 Non-target lesions: All other lesions (or sites of disease) including any 
measurable lesions over and above the 5 target lesions should be 
identified as non-target lesions and should also be recorded at baseline.  
Measurements of these lesions are not required, but the presence, 
absence, or in rare cases unequivocal progression of each should be 
noted throughout follow-up.  
 
12.2.3 Methods for Evaluation of Measurable Disease 
 
All measurements should be taken and recorded in metric notation using a ruler or 
calipers.  
 
The same method of assessment and the same technique should be used to 
characterize each identified and reported lesion at baseline and during follow-up. 
Imaging-based evaluation is preferred to evaluation by clinical examination unless 
the lesion(s) being followed cannot be imaged but are assessable by clinical exam. 
 
12.2.3.1 Clinical lesions:  Clinical lesions will only be considered measurable 
when they are superficial (e.g., skin nodules and palpable lymph nodes) 
and  10 mm diameter as assessed using calipers (e.g., skin nodules). In 
the case of skin lesions, documentation by color photography, including 
a ruler to estimate the size of the lesion, is recommended.  
 
12.2.3.2 Chest x-ray:  Lesions on chest x-ray are acceptable as measurable lesions 
when they are clearly defined and surrounded by aerated lung.  
However, CT is preferable.  
 
12.2.3.3 Conventional CT and MRI:  This guideline has defined measurability of 
lesions on CT scan based on the assumption that CT slice thickness is 5 
mm or less. If CT scans have slice thickness greater than 5 mm, the 
minimum size for a measurable lesion should be twice the slice 
thickness.  MRI is also acceptable in certain situations (e.g. for body 
scans). Ideally, the same type of scanner should be used and the image 
acquisition protocol should be followed as closely as possible to prior 
scans.

Page 60 
12.2.3.4 PET-CT:  At present, the low dose or attenuation correction CT portion 
of a combined PET-CT is not always of optimal diagnostic CT quality 
for use with RECIST measurements. However, if the site can document 
that the CT performed as part of a PET-CT is of identical diagnostic 
quality to a diagnostic CT (with IV and oral contrast), then the CT 
portion of the PET-CT can be used for RECIST measurements and can 
be used interchangeably with conventional CT in accurately measuring 
cancer lesions over time. Note, however, that the PET portion of the CT 
introduces additional data which may bias an investigator if it is not 
routinely or serially performed.   
 
12.2.3.5 Tumor markers: Tumor markers alone cannot be used to assess 
response. If markers are initially above the upper normal limit, they must 
normalize for a patient to be considered in complete clinical response.  
 
12.2.3.6 Cytology, Histology: These techniques can be used to differentiate 
between partial responses (PR) and complete responses (CR) in rare 
cases (e.g., residual lesions in tumor types, such as germ cell tumors, 
where known residual benign tumors can remain). 
 
 
Cytology should be obtained if an effusion appears or worsens during 
treatment when the measurable tumor has met criteria for response or 
stable disease. 
 
12.2.3.7 FDG-PET: While FDG-PET response assessments need additional 
study, it is sometimes reasonable to incorporate the use of FDG-PET 
scanning to complement CT scanning in assessment of progression 
(particularly possible 'new' disease).  New lesions on the basis of FDG-
PET imaging can be identified according to the following algorithm:  
 
a. Negative FDG-PET at baseline, with a positive FDG-PET at follow-
up is a sign of PD based on a new lesion. 
b. No FDG-PET at baseline and a positive FDG-PET at follow-up:  If 
the positive FDG-PET at follow-up corresponds to a new site of 
disease confirmed by CT, this is PD. If the positive FDG-PET at 
follow-up is not confirmed as a new site of disease on CT, additional 
follow-up CT scans are needed to determine if there is truly 
progression occurring at that site (if so, the date of PD will be the date 
of the initial abnormal FDG-PET scan).  If the positive FDG-PET at 
follow-up corresponds to a pre-existing site of disease on CT that is 
not progressing on the basis of the anatomic images, this is not PD. 
 
NOTE: A ‘positive’ FDG-PET scan lesion means one that is FDG 
avid with an uptake greater than twice that of the surrounding 
tissue on the attenuation corrected image. 
 
 
12.2.4 Response Criteria for Patients with Solid Tumor and Measurable Disease 
 
12.2.4.1 Evaluation of Target Lesions 
 
Complete Response (CR): 
Disappearance of all target and non-target 
lesions.  Any pathological lymph nodes (whether 

                         ADVL1615

Page 61 
target or non-target) must have reduction in short 
axis to <10 mm. If immunocytology is available, 
no disease must be detected by that methodology. 
Normalization of urinary catecholamines or other 
tumor markers if elevated at study enrollment (for 
patients with neuroblastoma).  
 
Partial Response (PR): 
At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the 
diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the 
baseline sum diameters 
 
Progressive Disease (PD): 
At least a 20% increase in the sum of the 
diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the 
smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline 
sum if that is the smallest on study).  In addition 
to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also 
demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. 
(Note:  the appearance of one or more new lesions 
is also considered progressions). Note: in 
presence of SD or PR in target disease but 
unequivocal progression in non-target or non-
measurable disease, the patient has PD if there is 
an overall level of substantial worsening in non-
target disease such that the overall tumor burden 
has 
increased 
sufficiently 
to 
merit 
discontinuation of therapy 
 
Stable Disease (SD): 
Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR nor 
sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as 
reference the smallest sum diameters while on 
study 
 
12.2.4.2 Evaluation of Non-Target Lesions 
 
Complete Response (CR): 
Disappearance of all non-target lesions and 
normalization of tumor marker level. All lymph 
nodes must be non-pathological in size (<10 mm 
short axis) 
 
Note:  If tumor markers are initially above the 
upper normal limit, they must normalize for a 
patient to be considered in complete clinical 
response. 
 
Non-CR/Non-PD: 
Persistence of one or more non-target lesion(s) 
and/or maintenance of tumor marker level above 
the normal limits 
 
Progressive Disease (PD): 
Appearance of one or more new lesions and/or 
unequivocal progression of existing non-target 
lesions. Unequivocal progression should not 
normally trump target lesion status. It must be 
representative of overall disease status change,

12.2.6 Overall Best Response Assessment 
Each patient will be classified according to his “best response” for the purposes of 
analysis of treatment effect.  Best response is determined as outlined in Section 
12.7 from a sequence of overall response assessments. 
 
12.3 
Response Criteria for Patients with Solid Tumors and Evaluable Disease 
 
12.3.1 Evaluable Disease 
The presence of at least one lesion, with no lesion that can be accurately measured 
in at least one dimension.  Such lesions may be evaluable by nuclear medicine 
techniques, immunocytochemistry techniques, tumor markers or other reliable 
measures.  
 
12.3.2 Complete Response 
Disappearance of all evaluable disease. 
 
12.3.3 Partial response 
Partial responses cannot be determined in patients with evaluable disease. 
 
12.3.4 Stable Disease (SD) 
That which does not qualify as Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), 
or Progressive Disease. 
 
12.3.5 Progressive Disease 
The appearance of one or more new lesions or evidence of laboratory, clinical, or 
radiographic progression. 
 
12.3.6 Overall Best Response Assessment 
Each patient will be classified according to his “best response” for the purposes of 
analysis of treatment effect.  Best response is determined as outlined in Section 
12.7 from a sequence of overall response assessments. 
 
12.4 
Response Criteria for Neuroblastoma Patients with MIBG Positive Lesions 
 
12.4.1 MIBG Positive Lesions 
Patients who have a positive MIBG scan at the start of therapy will be evaluable 
for MIBG response. The use of 123I for MIBG imaging is recommended for all 
scans. If the patient has only one MIBG positive lesion and that lesion was 
radiated, a biopsy must be done at least 28 days after radiation was completed and 
must show viable neuroblastoma. 
 
12.4.2 The following criteria will be used to report MIBG response by the treating 
institution: 
 
Complete response:  Complete resolution of all MIBG positive lesions 
Partial Response:  Resolution of at least one MIBG positive lesion, with 
persistence of other MIBG positive lesions 
Stable disease:  
No change in MIBG scan in number of positive lesions 
Progressive disease: Development of new MIBG positive lesions 
 
12.4.3 The response of MIBG lesions will be assessed on central review using the Curie 
scale14 as outlined below. Central review responses will be used to assess efficacy

for study endpoint. See Section 8.2.1 for details on transferring images to the 
Imaging Research Center. 
 
NOTE: This scoring should also be done by the treating institution for end of 
course response assessments. 
 
The body is divided into 9 anatomic sectors for osteomedullary lesions, with a 10th 
general sector allocated for any extra-osseous lesion visible on MIBG scan. In each 
region, the lesions are scored as follows. The absolute extension score is graded 
as:  
0 = no site per segment,  
1 = 1 site per segment,  
2 = more than one site per segment,  
3 = massive involvement (>50% of the segment).  
 
The absolute score is obtained by adding the score of all the segments. See 
diagram of sectors below: 
 
 
The relative score is calculated by dividing the absolute score at each time point 
by the corresponding pre-treatment absolute score. The relative score of each 
patient is calculated at each response assessment compared to baseline and 
classified as below: 
1. Complete response: all areas of uptake on MIBG scan completely resolved. 
If morphological evidence of tumor cells in bone marrow biopsy or aspiration 
is present at enrollment, no tumor cells can be detected by routine morphology 
on two subsequent bilateral bone marrow aspirates and biopsies done at least 21 
days apart to be considered a Complete Response. 
2. Partial response: Relative score ≤ 0.2 (lesions almost disappeared) to ≤ 0.5 
(lesions strongly reduced). 
3. Stable disease: Relative score > 0.5 (lesions weakly but significantly reduced) 
to 1.0 (lesions not reduced). 
4. Progressive disease: New lesions on MIBG scan.

12.4.5 Overall Best Response Assessment 
Each patient will be classified according to his “best response” for the purposes of 
analysis of treatment effect.  Best response is determined from the sequence of the 
overall response assessments as described in Table 6 in Section 12.7. 
 
12.5 
Response Criteria for Neuroblastoma Patients with Bone Marrow Involvement 
 
12.5.1 Bone Marrow Involvement  
Bone marrow obtained within 28 days prior to study enrollment with tumor cells 
seen on routine morphology (not by immunohistochemical staining only) of 
bilateral aspirate or biopsy on one bone marrow sample. 
 
Bone Marrow responses are determined by H&E Staining of bilateral bone marrow 
biopsies and aspirates. 
 
Complete Response:  
No tumor cells detectable by routine morphology on 2 
consecutive bilateral bone marrow aspirates and biopsies 
performed at least 21 days apart. Normalization of urinary 
catecholamines or other tumor markers if elevated at 
study enrollment. 
 
Progressive Disease:  
In patients who enroll with neuroblastoma in bone 
marrow by morphology have progressive disease if there 
is a doubling in the amount of tumor in the marrow AND 
a minimum of 25% tumor in bone marrow by 
morphology. (For example, a patient entering with 5% 
tumor in marrow by morphology must increase to ≥ 25% 
tumor to have progressive disease; a patient entering with 
30% tumor must increase to > 60%). 
 
In patients who enroll without evidence of neuroblastoma 
in bone marrow will be defined as progressive disease if 
tumor is detected in 2 consecutive bone marrow biopsies

Page 66 
or aspirations done at least 21 days apart. 
 
Stable Disease: 
Persistence of tumor in bone marrow that does not meet 
the criteria for either complete response or progressive 
disease. 
 
12.5.2 Overall Best Response Assessment 
Each patient will be classified according to his “best response” for the purposes of 
analysis of treatment effect.  Best response is determined from the sequence of the 
overall response assessments as described in Section 12.7. 
 
12.6 
Response Criteria for Patients with CNS Tumors 
 
12.6.1 Measurable Disease 
Any lesion that is at minimum 10 mm in one dimension on standard MRI or CT, 
for CNS tumors. 
 
12.6.2 Evaluable Disease  
Evaluable disease is defined as at least one lesion, with no lesion that can be 
accurately measured in at least one dimension. Such lesions may be evaluable by 
nuclear medicine techniques, immunocytochemistry techniques, tumor markers, 
CSF cytology, or other reliable measures. 
 
12.6.3 Selection of Target and Non-Target Lesions 
For most CNS tumors, only one lesion/mass is present and therefore is considered 
a “target” for measurement/follow up to assess for tumor progression/response. If 
multiple measurable lesions are present, up to 5 should be selected as “target” 
lesions. Target lesions should be selected on the basis of size and suitability for 
accurate repeated measurements. All other lesions will be followed as non-target 
lesions. The lower size limit of the target lesion(s) should be at least twice the 
thickness of the slices showing the tumor to decrease the partial volume effect 
(e.g., 8 mm lesion for a 4 mm slice). 
 
Any change in size of non-target lesions should be noted, though does not need to be 
measured. 
 
12.6.4 Response Criteria for Target Lesions 
Response criteria are assessed based on the product of the longest diameter and its 
longest perpendicular diameter. Development of new disease or progression in any 
established lesions is considered progressive disease, regardless of response in 
other lesions – e.g., when multiple lesions show opposite responses, the 
progressive disease takes precedence. Response Criteria for target lesions: 
 
 
Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. 
 
 
Partial response (PR): ≥ 50% decrease in the sum of the products of the two 
perpendicular diameters of all target lesions (up to 5), taking as reference the 
initial baseline measurements. 
 
 
Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient decrease in the sum of the products of 
the two perpendicular diameters of all target lesions to qualify for PR, nor 
sufficient increase in a single target lesion to qualify for PD. 

                         ADVL1615 
THIS PROTOCOL IS FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY, SEE PAGE 1 FOR USAGE POLICY 
 
Version Date: 08/27/2020 
 
Page 67 
 
 
Progressive Disease (PD): 25% or more increase in the sum of the products 
of the perpendicular diameters of the target lesions, taking as reference the 
smallest sum of the products observed since the start of treatment, or the 
appearance of one or more new lesions. 
 
12.6.5 Response Criteria for Non-Target Lesions: 
 
 
Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all non-target lesions. 
 
 
Incomplete Response/Stable Disease (IR/SD): The persistence of one or 
more non-target lesions. 
 
 
Progressive Disease (PD): The appearance of one or more new lesions and/or 
unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions. 
 
12.6.6 Response criteria for tumor markers (if available): 
Tumor markers will be classified simply as being at normal levels or at abnormally 
high levels. 
 
12.6.7 Overall Response Assessment: 
The overall response assessment takes into account response in both target and 
non-target lesions, the appearance of new lesions and normalization of markers 
(where applicable), according to the criteria described in the table below. The 
overall response assessment is shown in the last column, and depends on the 
assessments of target, non-target, marker and new lesions in the preceding 
columns.

Best Response 
 
12.7.1 Evaluation of Best Overall Response 
The best overall response is the best response recorded from the start of the 
treatment until disease progression/recurrence (taking as reference for progressive 
disease the smallest measurements recorded since the treatment started).  The 
patient's best response assignment will depend on the achievement of both 
measurement and confirmation criteria.

12.7.2 Duration of Response 
 
Duration of overall response:  The duration of overall response is measured from 
the time measurement criteria are met for CR or PR (whichever is first recorded) 
until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented 
(taking as reference for progressive disease the smallest measurements recorded 
since the treatment started). 
 
The duration of overall CR is measured from the time measurement criteria are 
first met for CR until the first date that progressive disease is objectively 
documented. 
 
 
Duration of stable disease:  Stable disease is measured from the start of the 
treatment until the criteria for progression are met, taking as reference the smallest 
measurements recorded since the treatment started, including the baseline 
measurements.

13.0 
ADVERSE EVENT REPORTING REQUIREMENTS 
 
Adverse event data collection and reporting which are required as part of every clinical trial, are 
done to ensure the safety of patients enrolled in the studies as well as those who will enroll in future 
studies using similar agents.  Adverse events are reported in a routine manner at scheduled times 
during a trial. (Please follow directions for routine reporting provided in the Case Report Forms for 
this protocol). Additionally, certain adverse events must be reported in an expedited manner to 
allow for optimal monitoring of patient safety and care. The following sections provide information 
about expedited reporting. 
 
 
Reporting requirements may include the following considerations: 1) whether the patient has 
received an investigational or commercial agent; 2) whether the adverse event is considered serious; 
3) the grade (severity); and 4) whether or not hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization was 
associated with the event. 
 
An investigational agent is a protocol drug administered under an Investigational New Drug 
Application (IND). In some instances, the investigational agent may be available commercially, 
but is actually being tested for indications not included in the approved package label. 
 
Commercial agents are those agents not provided under an IND but obtained instead from a 
commercial source. The NCI, rather than a commercial distributor, may on some occasions 
distribute commercial agents for a trial. 
 
13.1 
Steps to Determine If an Adverse Event Is To Be Reported In an Expedited Manner 
 
Step 1: Identify the type of adverse event using the NCI CTCAE version 5.0. All 
appropriate treatment areas should have access to a copy of the CTCAE version 
5.0. A copy of the CTCAE version 5.0 can be downloaded from the CTEP web 
site http://ctep.cancer.gov/protocolDevelopment/electronic_applications/ctc.htm. 
 
Step 2:  Grade the adverse event using the NCI CTCAE. 
 
Step 3:  Review Table A in this section to determine if: 
 
the adverse event is considered serious; 
 
there are any protocol-specific requirements for expedited reporting of specific 
adverse events that require special monitoring; and/or 
 
there are any protocol-specific exceptions to the reporting requirements.  
 
NOTE: This includes all events that occur within 30 days of the last dose of 
protocol treatment. Any event that occurs more than 30 days after the last 
dose of treatment and is attributed (possibly, probably, or definitely) to the 
agent(s) must also be reported according to the instructions in the table 
below. Attribution categories are as follows: Unrelated, Unlikely, 
Possible, Probable, and Definite.

FDA REPORTING REQUIREMENTS FOR SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENTS (21 CFR Part 312) 
NOTE:  Investigators MUST immediately report to the sponsor ANY Serious Adverse Events, whether or not they 
are considered related to the investigational agent(s)/intervention (21 CFR 312.64) 
An adverse event is considered serious if it results in ANY of the following outcomes:   
1) 
Death 
2) 
A life-threatening adverse event  
3) 
An adverse event that results in inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization for ≥ 24 
hours  
4) 
A persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct normal life functions  
5) 
A congenital anomaly/birth defect.  
6) 
Important Medical Events (IME) that may not result in death, be life threatening, or require hospitalization 
may be considered serious when, based upon medical judgment, they may jeopardize the patient or subject 
and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed in this definition. (FDA, 
21 CFR 312.32; ICH E2A and ICH E6). 
ALL SERIOUS adverse events that meet the above criteria MUST be immediately reported via CTEP-AERS within 
the timeframes detailed in the table below.

section entitled “Additional Instructions or Exceptions.” 
Expedited AE reporting timelines are defined as: 
o “24-Hour; 5 Calendar Days” - The AE must initially be reported via CTEP-AERS within 24 hours of 
learning of the AE, followed by a complete expedited report within 5 calendar days of the initial 24-
hour report. 
o 
“7 Calendar Days” - A complete expedited report on the AE must be submitted within 7 calendar 
days of learning of the AE. 
1Serious adverse events that occur more than 30 days after the last administration of investigational 
agent/intervention and have an attribution of possible, probable, or definite require reporting as follows:  
Expedited 24-hour notification followed by complete report within 5 calendar days for: 
 All Grade 3, 4, and Grade 5 AEs 
Expedited 7 calendar day reports for: 
 Grade 2 AEs resulting in hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization 
2 For studies using PET or SPECT IND agents, the AE reporting period is limited to 10 radioactive half-lives, 
rounded UP to the nearest whole day, after the agent/intervention was last administered.  Footnote “1” above 
applies after this reporting period. 
Effective Date:  May 5, 2011 
 
 
Any medical event equivalent to CTCAE Grade 3, 4, or 5 that precipitates hospitalization (or 
prolongation of existing hospitalization) must be reported regardless of attribution and designation 
as expected or unexpected with the exception of any events identified as protocol-specific 
expedited adverse event reporting exclusions.

As referenced in the CTEP Adverse Events Reporting Requirements, an AE that resolves and then recurs 
during a subsequent cycle does not require CTEP-AERS reporting unless (1) the Grade increases; or (2) 
hospitalization is associated with the recurring AE. 
 
13.2 
When to Report an Event in an Expedited Manner  
 
 
Some adverse events require notification within 24 hours (refer to Table A) to NCI via 
the web at http://ctep.cancer.gov (email the ADVL1615 COG study assigned Research 
Coordinator within 24 hours of becoming aware of the event if the CTEP-AERS 24-Hour 
Notification web-based application is unavailable) and by telephone call to the Study 
Chair. Once internet connectivity is restored, a 24-hour notification phoned in must be 
entered electronically into CTEP-AERS by the original submitter at the site. 
 
 
When the adverse event requires expedited reporting, submit the report within 5 or 7 
calendar days of learning of the event (refer to Table A). 
 
 
Expedited AE reporting for this study must only use CTEP-AERS (Adverse Event 
Expedited Reporting System), accessed via the CTEP home page https://eapps-
ctep.nci.nih.gov/ctepaers.

13.3.1 CTEP-AERS Reporting 
To report adverse events in an expedited fashion use the NCI’s Adverse Event 
Expedited 
Reporting 
System 
(CTEP-AERS) 
that 
can 
be 
found 
at 
http://ctep.cancer.gov. 
 
A CTEP-AERS report must be submitted electronically via the CTEP-AERS Web-
based application located at https://eapps-ctep.nci.nih.gov/ctepaers/. If prompted 
to 
enter 
a 
sponsor 
email 
address, 
please 
type 
in: 
PEPCTNAERS@childrensoncologygroup.org. 
 
Send supporting documentation by email to the ADVL1615 COG study assigned 
Research Coordinator. ALWAYS include the ticket number on all faxed and 
emailed documents. 
 
13.4 
Definition of Onset and Resolution of Adverse Events 
 
 
NOTE: These guidelines below are for reporting adverse events on the COG case report 
forms and do not alter the guidelines for CTEP-AERS reporting. 
 
13.4.1 If an adverse event occurs more than once in a course (cycle) of therapy only the 
most severe grade of the event should be reported. 
 
13.4.2 If an adverse event progresses through several grades during one course of therapy, 
only the most severe grade should be reported. 
 
13.4.3 The duration of the AE is defined as the duration of the highest (most severe) grade 
of the Adverse Effects.  
 
13.4.4 The resolution date of the AE is defined as the date at which the AE returns to 
baseline or less than or equal to Grade 1, whichever level is higher (note that the 
resolution date may therefore be different from the date at which the grade of the 
AE decreased from its highest grade). If the AE does not return to baseline the 
resolution date should be recorded as "ongoing."   
 
13.4.5 An adverse event that persists from one course to another should only be reported 
once unless the grade becomes more severe in a subsequent course. An adverse 
event which resolves and then recurs during a different course, must be reported 
each course it recurs.  
 
13.5 
Other Recipients of Adverse Event Reports 
 
13.5.1 Events that do not meet the criteria for CTEP-AERS reporting (Section 13.2) 
should be reported at the end of each cycle using the forms provided in the CRF 
packet (see Section 14.1). 
 
13.5.2 COG will forward reports and supporting documentation to the Study Chair, to the 
FDA (when COG holds the IND) and to the pharmaceutical company (for industry 
sponsored trials).

local policy and procedures to the Institutional Review Board responsible for 
oversight of the patient. 
 
13.6 
Reporting Secondary AML/MDS 
All cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) that 
occur in patients following their chemotherapy for cancer must be reported via CTEP-
AERS and included as part of the second malignant neoplasm reporting requirements for 
this protocol (see data submission packet). Submit the completed CTEP-AERS report 
within 14 days of an AML/MDS diagnosis occurring after protocol treatment for cancer. 
 
 
Secondary Malignancy:  
A secondary malignancy is a cancer caused by treatment for a previous malignancy (e.g., 
treatment with investigational agent/intervention, radiation or chemotherapy). A secondary 
malignancy is not considered a metastasis of the initial neoplasm.  
CTEP requires all secondary malignancies that occur following treatment with an agent 
under an NCI IND/IDE be reported via CTEP-AERS. Three options are available to 
describe the event:  
1) Leukemia secondary to oncology chemotherapy (e.g., acute myelocytic 
leukemia [AML])  
2) Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)  
3) Treatment-related secondary malignancy.  
 
Any malignancy possibly related to cancer treatment (including AML/MDS) should also 
be reported via the routine reporting mechanisms outlined in each protocol. 
Second Malignancy:  
A second malignancy is one unrelated to the treatment of a prior malignancy (and is NOT 
a metastasis from the initial malignancy). Second malignancies require ONLY routine 
reporting via CDUS unless otherwise specified. 
 
13.7 
Reporting Pregnancy, Pregnancy Loss, and Death Neonatal 
When submitting CTEP-AERS reports for “Pregnancy”, “Pregnancy loss”, or “Neonatal 
loss”, the Pregnancy Information Form should be completed and emailed to the 
ADVL1615 COG study assigned Research Coordinator along with any additional medical 
information along with any additional medical information. The potential risk of exposure 
of the fetus to the investigational agent should be documented in the “Description of Event” 
section of the CTEP-AERS report. 
 
13.7.1 Pregnancy 
 
Patients who become pregnant on study risk intrauterine exposure of the 
fetus to agents which may be teratogenic. For this reason, pregnancy 
occurring on study or within 6 months following the last dose of study 
therapy should be reported in an expedited manner via CTEP-AERS as 
“Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal conditions - Other (Pregnancy) 
under the Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal conditions SOC and 
reported as Grade 3. 
 
 
Pregnancy should be followed until the outcome is known. If the baby is 
born with a birth defect or anomaly, then a second CTEP-AERS report is

required. 
 
13.7.2 Pregnancy Loss (Fetal Death) 
 
Pregnancy loss is defined in CTCAE version 5.0 as “Death in utero.” 
 
 
Any pregnancy loss should be reported expeditiously, as Grade 4 
“Pregnancy loss” under the Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal 
conditions SOC. Do NOT report a pregnancy loss as a Grade 5 event since 
CTEP-AERS recognized any Grade 5 event as a patient death. 
 
13.7.3 Death Neonatal 
 
Neonatal death, defined in CTCAE version 5.0 as “Newborn deaths 
occurring during the first 28 days after birth” that is felt by the investigator 
to be at least possibly due to the investigational agent/intervention, should 
be reported expeditiously. 
 
 
A neonatal death should be reported expeditiously as Grade 4 “Death 
neonatal” under the “general disorders and administration” SOC when the 
death is the result of a patient pregnancy or pregnancy in partners of men 
on study. 
 
 
Neonatal death should NOT be reported as “Death neonatal” under the 
General disorders and administration SOC, a Grade 5 event. If reported as 
such, the CTEP-AERS interprets this as a death of the patient being 
treated. 
 
Pregnancy should be followed up until the outcome of the pregnancy is known at intervals 
deemed appropriate by her physicians. The “Pregnancy Information Form” should be used 
for 
all 
necessary 
follow-ups.

form

RECORDS, REPORTING, AND DATA AND SAFETY MONITORING PLAN 
 
14.1 
Categories of Research Records  
Research records for this study can be divided into three categories: 
 
1. 
Non-computerized Information:  Therapy Delivery Maps, Pathology Reports, 
Surgical Reports. These forms are uploaded into RAVE. 
 
2. 
Reference Labs, Biopathology Reviews, and Imaging Center data:  These data 
accompany submissions to these centers, which forward their data electronically 
to the COG Statistics & Data Center. 
 
3. 
Computerized Information Electronically Submitted:  All other data will be 
entered in RAVE with the aid of schedules and worksheets (essentially paper 
copies of the OPEN and RAVE screens) provided in the case report form (CRF) 
packet. 
 
See separate CRF Packet, which includes submission schedule. 
 
14.2 
CDUS 
This study will be monitored by the Clinical Data Update System (CDUS) Version 3.0.  
Cumulative protocol- and patient-specific CDUS data will be submitted electronically to 
CTEP on a quarterly basis by FTP burst of data.  Reports are due January 31, April 30, July 
31, and October 31.  Instructions for submitting data using the CDUS can be found on the 
CTEP Web site (http://ctep.cancer.gov/reporting/cdus.html). 
 
14.3 
Data and Safety Monitoring Plan 
Data and safety is ensured by several integrated components including the COG Data and 
Safety Monitoring Committee. 
 
14.3.1 Data and Safety Monitoring Committee 
This study will be monitored in accordance with the Children’s Oncology Group 
policy for data and safety monitoring of Phase 1 and 2 studies. In brief, the role of 
the COG Data and Safety Monitoring Committee is to protect the interests of 
patients and the scientific integrity for all Phase 1 and 2 studies. The DSMC 
consists of a chair; a statistician external to COG; one external member; one 
consumer representative; the lead statistician of the PEP-CTN scientific 
committee; and a member from the NCI. The DSMC meets at least every 6 months 
to review current study results, as well as data available to the DSMC from other 
related studies. Approximately 6 weeks before each meeting of the Phase 1 and 2 
DSMC, study chairs will be responsible for working with the study statistician to 
prepare study reports for review by the DSMC. The DSMC will provide 
recommendations to the COG PEP-CTN Chair and the Group Chair for each study 
reviewed to change the study or to continue the study unchanged. Data and Safety 
Committee reports for institutional review boards can be prepared using the public 
data monitoring report as posted on the COG Web site. 
 
14.3.2 Monitoring by the Study Chair and Developmental Therapeutics Leadership  
The study chair will monitor the study regularly and enter evaluations of patients’ 
eligibility, evaluability, and dose limiting toxicities into the study database. In 
addition, study data and the study chair’s evaluations will be reviewed by the COG 
PEP-CTN Chair, Vice Chair, and Statistician on a weekly conference call.

APPENDIX VIII:   
PATIENT INSTRUCTIONS FOR TREAT DIARRHEA 
 
Guidelines for the Treatment of Diarrhea 
 
Institutional practice may be used in place of these guidelines. 
 
You should purchase or will be given a prescription for loperamide to have available to begin treatment at 
the first episode of poorly formed or loose stools or the earliest onset of bowel movements more frequent 
than normally expected for the patient. Patients will also be instructed to contact their physician if any 
diarrhea occurs. Patients will be given loperamide based on body weight.  
 
Be aware of your child's bowel movements. At the first sign they become softer than usual or if your child 
has any notable increase in the number of bowel movements over what is normal for him/her, begin taking 
loperamide.  
 
Please follow these directions carefully, using dosing guidelines below: 
 
Take _____________ at the first sign of diarrhea. 
 Continue taking __________ every __ hours until the diarrhea slows or the normal pattern of 
bowel movements returns. Repeat the same doses and frequency if the diarrhea returns. 
 Do not exceed ___________ in a 24 hour period. 
 Please call your doctor if you have any questions about taking loperamide, if your child's diarrhea 
is not under control after two days, or if he/she is feeling extremely weak, lightheaded, or dizzy. 
 Make an extra effort to give your child lots of fluids (several glasses of pedialyte, fruit juices, 
soda, soup, etc.) while your child is participating in this study. 
 Side effects may include tiredness, drowsiness or dizziness. If your child experiences these side 
effects, or if your child is urinating less frequently than usual, please contact your child's 
physician. 
 
Do not give your child any laxatives without consulting with his/her physician.

a. Samples should not be transported in glass vials.  Samples should be transferred to plastic 
tubes for transport. 
(If glass must be used, containers must be immobilized.  Note: the use of glass greatly 
increases the risk of breakage and sample loss).  
b. Use labels that will not smear or fall off under cold or moist conditions.   
 
2. Samples should be placed in a primary receptacle (insulated cooler), then into a secondary 
receptacle (sturdy cardboard box).  These primary and secondary containers are available 
commercially as combination packaging. The package contents are placed in this order: 
a. Wrap the samples in enough absorbent material to absorb at least three times the contents 
should leakage occur. 
b. Place the wrapped samples in a plastic bag and seal (heat seal or zip lock) 
c. Place the sealed bag in the bottom of the primary receptacle. 
d. Add styrofoam peanuts or equivalent (barrier to dry ice and shock stabilizer) 
e. Add a sheet of cardboard onto the top of the primary receptacle. 
f. If samples are to be frozen, adequate dry ice should be included in the container to last 
the duration of the journey.  (48-72 hrs, at least 7 Kg or 15 pounds, approximately 4 
pounds per day of transit).   
g. If there is room remaining, add filler material to avoid content movement during 
transport.   
h. The primary Styrofoam container should be taped shut and placed in the secondary 
cardboard container. 
 
3. Complete a sample inventory form.  A copy of an example form is attached.  If possible please 
send this electronically (i.e. Excel file) and include all information that would be required in final 
data tables.  Please indicate sample storage conditions on inventory form.

4. Seal the sample inventory form(s) into a protected plastic bag.  Place the plastic bag containing 
the sample inventory form(s) on top of the secured styrofoam primary container lid so that it is 
immediately accessible upon opening the box. 
 
5. Tape the shipping box securely closed.  Use tape that is resistant to moisture and cold. 
 
6. Place Biohazard warnings on outside of box (if applicable). 
 
7. Label the box exterior in accordance with the applicable DOT CFR / IATA Regulations. 
 
8. Complete an address label and attach it to the outside of the box.

Cycle 1  
 
Required Observations in Cycle 1  
All baseline studies must be performed within 7 days prior to enrollment 
unless otherwise indicated below. See Section 8.0 for schedule of assessments. 
 
a. 
History 
b. Physical exam with vital signs: Vital signs should be checked prior to each 
pevonedistat infusion. Vital signs will be also be assessed at the end of treatment. 
c. 
Height, weight, BSA 
d. Performance status 
e. 
CBC, differential, platelets: Twice weekly during Cycle 1. If patients have Grade 4 
neutropenia or thrombocytopenia, CBCs should be checked at least every other day 
until recovery to Grade 3 or until the criteria for dose limiting toxicity are met. 
f. 
Electrolytes including Ca++, PO4, MG++ 
g. Creatinine 
h. ALT, AST, bilirubin: Check prior to each dose of pevonedistat, then weekly for 
remaining weeks of cycle. If patients have Grade 2, 3, or 4 ALT/AST/bilirubin on or 
after Cycle 1 Day 8, AST/ALT/bilirubin should be checked at least every other day 
until recovery to ≤ Grade 1. See Section 6.2.4 for more details. 
i. 
ECHO/EKG 
j. 
Albumin, Pulse Oximetry 
k. Pregnancy test: Women of childbearing potential require a negative pregnancy test 
prior to starting treatment; sexually active patients must use an acceptable method of 
birth control. Abstinence is an acceptable methods of birth control. All women of 
childbearing potential must have a pregnancy test done every cycle prior to initiation 
of a new cycle. 
l. 
Tumor disease evaluation: Tumor disease evaluation should be obtained on the next 
consecutive cycle after initial documentation of either a PR or CR. If the institutional 
investigator determines that the patient has progressed based on clinical or 
laboratory evidence, he/she may opt not to confirm this finding radiographically. 
m. Pharmacokinetics (required): See Section 8.3 for details. 
n. Pharmacodynamics (optional): See Section 8.4 for details. 
o. INR 
p. Bone marrow evaluation. If a solid tumor patient is suspected to have or has a history 
of bone marrow involvement then a pre-study bone marrow biopsy and/or aspirate is 
required. This should then be repeated with each tumor disease evaluation if pre-study 
bone marrow was positive for metastatic disease. 
^ Studies may be obtained within 72 hours prior to the start of the subsequent cycle. 
 
This listing only includes evaluations necessary to answer the primary and 
secondary aims. OBTAIN OTHER STUDIES AS REQUIRED FOR GOOD 
CLINICAL CARE.

THERAPY DELIVERY MAPS (TDMS) FOR ALL SUBSEQUENT CYCLES 
 
 
1BTherapy Delivery Map – All Subsequent Cycles 
This Therapy Delivery Map (TDM) relates to all subsequent cycles (Cycles 2+). Each cycle 
lasts 21 days. This TDM can be used for all dose levels of pevonedistat. Please record the 
dose level in the chart below. Treatment may continue in the absence of disease progression 
or unacceptable toxicity. A cycle may be repeated 17 times, up to a total duration of therapy 
of 12 months. Use a copy of this page once for each cycle (please note cycle number below).  
This form is to be completed and uploaded into RAVE at the end of every cycle.
