Patient case: 70-year-old male with melanoma; genetic feature: NF1 truncation

Clinical trial: Arginase Inhibitor CB-1158 in Patients With Solid Tumors

Summary: This study is an open-label Phase 1 evaluation of CB-1158 as a single agent and in combination with immune checkpoint therapy in patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors.

Detailed description: This study is an open-label Phase 1 evaluation of CB-1158 as a single agent and in combination with immune checkpoint therapy in patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors.
  Single Agent CB-1158:
  Patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors be enrolled into escalating monotherapy dose cohorts to determine the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of CB-1158. Additional patients with NSCLC, CRC, and other tumors will be enrolled at the single agent RP2D.
  Combination Treatment:
  Patients with advanced/metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma, melanoma, and non-small cell lung cancer and other solid tumors previously treated with a PD-1 and PD-L1 therapy will be enrolled into separate cohorts of combination therapy (CB-1158 and nivolumab) to determine the RP2D. Additional patients with NSCLC and melanoma will be enrolled at the combination of CB-1158 with nivolumab at the RP2D.
  All patients will be assessed for safety, pharmacokinetics, biomarkers and tumor response.
