a study of bpi-1178 in patients with advanced solid tumor and hr+/her2- breast cancer

Conditions: Advanced Solid Tumor; HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer

Summary: bpi-1178 is a novel, orally administered inhibitor of both cyclin-dependent kinase 4（cdk4）and cdk6 kinase activity. this phase i study is a first-in-human (fih) clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic (pk) profile of oral bpi-1178 in patients with advanced solid tumors. the phase iia trial is designed to investigate the anti-tumor activity and safety of bpi-1178 in combination with endocrine therapy in patients with hr+/her2-advanced breast cancer and to determine the dosing regimen for combination with endocrine therapy in a later confirmatory study.

this is a study which consists of phase １study（dose-escalation study、dose-expansion study and pk trial） and phase 2a study. phase 1 study will adopt the classical 3+3 dose escalation design, exploring the safety and tolerance of 6 dose cohorts (25mg, 75mg, 150mg, 250mg, 400mg and 500mg) in subjects with advanced solid tumor and determining the maximum tolerated dose of bpi-1178 for phase 2a study. phase 2a is an open-label clinical study in subjects of hr+/her2- breast cancer using 3+3 design, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of bpi-1178 in combination with endocrine therapy. cohort a is bpi-1178 in combination with fulvestrant for advanced or recurrent hr+/her2- breast cancer after failure or intolerance of non-fulvestrant first-line endocrine therapy. cohort b is bpi-1178 in combination with letrozole for advanced or relapse more than 1 year after the end of adjuvant endocrine therapy as first-line treatment. phase 1 and 2a consist of screening period (28 days before enrollment), treatment period and follow up period (every 3 months until death or the end of study). phase 1 study: subjects in each dose group will first receive a single dose. after a single dose for washout period, if the subject has no dose-limiting toxicity (dlt) related to the investigational product, the subject will enter the continuous dose cycle and receive continuous dose in a 28-day treatment cycle (single daily dose for 3 consecutive weeks/drug withdrawal for 1 week) .once the maximum tolerated dose (mtd) is reached in phase 1, phase 2a study will explore the dose of bpi-1178 from mtd in combination with fulvestrant or letrozole. phase 2a study: subjects in cohort a and cohort b with intermittent dosing (3-week continuous dosing followed by 1-week rest) and continuous dosing (28-day continuous dosing) will be received in combination with fulvestrant or letrozole. each 28-day is a complete treatment cycle during the concomitant-drug period. dose limiting toxicity (dlt) will be recorded for the single dose period of 7 days and the multiple dose period up to 28 days in phase 1 study, as well as 28 days after the first dose of bpi-1178 in phase 2a. efficacy will be evaluated by recist v1.1 and the response assessment in neuro-oncology brain metastases (rano-bm) every 2 months. adverse events will be monitored throughout the trial. other exploration of pharmacokinetic information will be assessed throughout the trial.
