SL-401 in Combination With Pomalidomide and Dexamethasone in Relapsed or Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
A Phase 1/2, Open Label Study of SL-401 in Combination with Pomalidomide and Dexamethasone In Relapsed and Refractory Multiple Myeloma

Detailed Description
-----------------
This study is a phase 1/2 multicenter, open-label study of SL-401 (tagraxofusp-erzs) in combination with standard doses of pomalidomide and dexamethasone in patients with relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (MM). The study will be conducted in 2 phases: Phase 1 is the dose-escalation phase to determine the maximum tested dose (MTD) of SL-401 in combination with standard doses of pomalidomide and dexamethasone. In Phase 1, each evaluated SL-401 dose level will incorporate an initial Run-in Cycle (i.e. cycle 1) of single agent SL-401 in at least 3 patients; following the Run-in Cycle, patients who have not experienced a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) will receive combination SL-401/pomalidomide and dexamethasone in cycles 2 and beyond. All patients in Phase 2 will receive 1 cycle of SL-401 monotherapy in cycle 1, followed by combination of SL-401/pomalidomide/dexamethasone in cycle 2 and beyond. The dose of SL-401 will be the MTD of SL-401 or MTD given in combination with pomalidomide/dexamethasone determined during Phase 1.

An FCBP is a sexually mature female who: 1) has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or 2) has not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months). Exclusion Criteria: Patients will be ineligible for this study if they meet any 1 of the following criteria: The patient has an active malignancy and/or cancer history that may confound the assessment of the study endpoints. Patients with a past cancer history (within 2 years of entry) with substantial potential for recurrence and/or ongoing active malignancy must be discussed with the Sponsor before study entry. Patients with the following neoplastic diagnoses are eligible: non-melanoma skin cancer, carcinoma in situ (including superficial bladder cancer), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia, organ-confined prostate cancer with no evidence of progressive disease. Prior therapy with SL-401 or received any investigational drug within the prior 30 days or 5 half-lives of the investigational drug, whichever is longer. Prior anti-cancer therapy (chemotherapy, targeted agents, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy) within the prior 14 days except for alkylating agents (e.g., melphalan) within the prior 28 days. Pomalidomide (POM)-refractory disease (i.e., non-responsive to prior POM [either as monotherapy or in combination] or relapse/progressive disease within 60 days of prior POM (either as monotherapy or in combination). Prior POM exposure is permitted, provided the patient's MM is not considered POM-refractory as defined above. Primary refractory MM defined as disease that is non-responsive in patients that have never achieved at least stable disease or better with any therapy. Any > grade 1 (according to the National Cancer Institute [NCI] Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE], v.4.03) adverse reaction unresolved from previous treatments or not readily managed and controlled with supportive care. The presence of alopecia of any grade and peripheral neuropathy ≤ grade 2 without pain is allowed.

Clinically significant cardiovascular disease (e.g., uncontrolled or any New York Heart Association [NYHA] Class 3 or 4, congestive heart failure, uncontrolled or unstable angina, history of myocardial infarction or stroke within 6 months prior to study entry, uncontrolled hypertension or clinically significant arrhythmias not controlled by medication) Uncontrolled, clinically significant pulmonary disease (e.g., chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary hypertension) that in the opinion of the Investigator would put the patient at significant risk for pulmonary complications during the study. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, uncontrolled infection, disseminated intravascular coagulation, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements. History of erythema multiforme or severe hypersensitivity to prior Immunomodulatory Drugs (IMiDs) such as thalidomide and lenalidomide. The patient is receiving medications that are strong inhibitors of CYP1A2. Patients should have discontinued strong CYP1A2 inhibitors (e.g., ciprofloxacin and fluvoxamine) at least 5 half-lives before beginning study drug. The patient continues to smoke cigarettes, which can induce CYP1A2. Inability to tolerate thromboprophylaxis. Pregnant or breast feeding.
