Study of ARRY-614 Plus Either Nivolumab or Nivolumab+Ipilimumab

In this study, the Phase Ib portion aims to establish safety and tolerability of ARRY-614 with either nivolumab or ipilimumab and to determine a recommended phase II dose of ARRY-614 in combination with either nivolumab or nivolumab+ipilimumab immunotherapy in patients with selected advanced solid tumors. The Phase II portion will estimate the efficacy of ARRY-614 in combination with either nivolumab or ARRY-614 + nivolumab+ipilimumab immunotherapy in patients with with NSCLC, HNSCC, melanoma and RCC and melanoma.

This phase Ib/II study of PO administered ARRY-614 in combination with checkpoint immunotherapy. In phase Ib, this includes ARRY-614 plus nivolumab or ARRY-614 + nivolumab+ipilimumab in patients with selected advanced solid tumors. In phase II, this includes ARRY-614 in combination with nivolumab in a combined cohort of NSCLC and HNSCCC as well as two arms with patients having either melanoma and RCC, where ARRY-614 will be combined with nivolumab+ipilimumab. The objective of the Ib phase is to determine the safety, tolerability and recommended phase II dose of ARRY-614 with either nivolumab or nivolumab+ipilimumab combination therapy. The objective of Phase II is to determine best ORR in the three separate phase II arms: ARRY-614 plus nivolumab+ipilimumab in melanoma or RCC as well as ARRY-614 plus nivolumab in a combined cohort of NSCLC and HNSCC. The recommended phase II dose will be informed by the phase Ib safety study of ARRY-614, the plasma PK of ARRY-614 and the metabolite, AR00451575, and the PD effects of ARRY-614 in pre and post dose peripheral blood samples.

In phase Ib, trial participants will take ARRY-614 continuously in 3- or 4-week cycles (± 3 days). Nivolumab and nivolumab+ipilimumab therapy will be dosed according to FDA-approved or compendium supported dosing schedule.

In phase II, a similar dosing schedule will be pursued once the recommended phase II dose of ARRY-614 has been determined with nivolumab or nivolumab +ipilimumab. ARRY-614 will be given on a daily PO schedule in 3- or 4-week cycles (± 3 days).

* Be able to understand and willing to sign the informed consent form (or have legal representation) and to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plans, procedures, and laboratory tests, including serial peripheral blood sampling, biopsies, and urine sampling, during the study. A legally authorized representative may consent on behalf of a subject who is otherwise unable to provide informed consent if acceptable to and approved by the site's IRB/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC).
* Female patients with reproductive potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test prior to the start of therapy, or a confirmation from an obstetrician in case of equivocal serum pregnancy results. Females of reproductive potential are defined as sexually mature women who have not undergone a hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or tubal occlusion or who have not been naturally postmenopausal (ie, who have not menstruated) for at least 24 consecutive months (ie, have not had menses at any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months). Women with reproductive potential, as well as fertile men and their partners who are female with reproductive potential, must agree to use two effective forms of contraception (including at least one barrier form) from the time of giving informed consent throughout the study and for 5 months after the last dose of therapy for women, and 7 months after last dose for men. Effective forms of contraception are defined as hormonal PO contraceptives, injectables, patches, intrauterine devices, intrauterine hormone-releasing systems, bilateral tubal ligation, condoms with spermicide, or male partner sterilization.

* Participants must not have had a prior anti-cancer monoclonal antibody (mAb) within 4 weeks prior to study Day 1 (with exception of anti-PD1/ipilimumab combination therapy) or have not recovered (i.e. \< Grade 1 at baseline) from adverse events due to agents administered more than 4 weeks earlier.
* Participants must not have a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or be receiving systemic steroid therapy at a dose of \>10 mg prednisone daily or equivalent at time of first dose of trial treatment (this criterion does not apply to HIV-positive patients as detailed in the inclusion criteria).
* Participants must not have active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years (i.e. with use of disease modifying agents, corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs). Replacement therapy (e.g. thyroxine, insulin, or physiologic corticosteroids replacement therapy for adrenal or pituitary insufficiency, etc.) is not considered a form of systemic treatment.
* Participants must not have a known history of non-infectious pneumonitis that required steroids for treatment.
* Participants must not have evidence of active interstitial lung disease.
* Have known symptomatic brain metastases requiring steroids. Patients with previously diagnosed brain metastases are eligible if they have completed their treatment and have recovered from the acute effects of radiation therapy or surgery prior to study entry, have discontinued corticosteroid treatment for these metastases for at least 1 week and have radiographically stable disease for at least 1 month prior to study entry. Note: up to 10 mg per day of prednisone equivalent will be allowed.
* Have a history of another primary cancer that is active requiring treatment, progressing or for which the investigator believes will make disease assessment unreliable.
* Underwent major surgery within 4 weeks of Day 1 or have not recovered from post-surgery toxicities.
* Are pregnant or breastfeeding.
* Have an active infection requiring systemic anti-infective therapy or with an unexplained fever \>38.5°C within 7 days of Day 1 (at the discretion of the Investigator, patients with tumor fever may be enrolled).

* Have any other acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition, including recent (within 12 months of Day 1) or active suicidal ideation or behavior, or a laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the Investigator, would make the subject inappropriate for entry into this study.
* Have known active inflammatory gastrointestinal disease, chronic diarrhea, previous gastric resection or lap band dysphagia, short-gut syndrome, gastroparesis, or other conditions that limit the ingestion or gastrointestinal absorption of drugs administered PO. Gastroesophageal reflux disease under medical treatment is allowed (assuming no drug interaction potential).
