E7050 in Combination With E7080 in Subjects With Advanced Solid Tumors (Dose Escalation) and in Subjects With Recurrent Glioblastoma or Unresectable Stage III or Stage IV Melanoma After Prior Systemic Therapy (Expansion Cohort and Phase 2)
Status: Recruiting
Phase: Phase 1/Phase 2
Diagnosis: Solid Tumor/Phase I
NCT ID: NCT01433991
(View complete trial on ClinicalTrials.gov)
DFCI Protocol ID: 11-175
This is a multicenter, open-label, Phase 1b/2 study which will be conducted in two parts: a Phase 1b part comprising a dose escalation and an expansion cohort; and a Phase 2 part which will comprise two cohorts. The purpose of the Phase 1b part is to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of E7080 and E7050 in combination in subjects with unresectable advanced or metastatic solid tumors. In the subsequent Phase 1b expansion cohort and Phase 2 cohorts, additional subjects with recurrent glioblastoma or unresectable Stage III or Stage IV melanoma and disease progression after prior systemic treatment will be enrolled to confirm the MTD (expansion cohort) and to further explore the clinical activity of E7050 and E7080.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
1. Phase 1b: unresectable advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

glioblastoma (expansion cohort and Cohort 1) or melanoma (expansion cohort and Cohort
2).
Phase 1b expansion cohort glioblastoma subjects, Phase 2 Cohort 1:
3. No evidence of active central nervous system (CNS) hemorrhage on baseline scans other
than in those subjects with recurrent glioblastoma who are stable grade 1.
4. Subjects having first or second recurrence documented by magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI), following primary management with surgical resection or biopsy, radiotherapy
and up to two prior systemic treatments.
5. If subject is on corticosteroids, they must be on a stable dose for 1 week prior to
the first dose of study drug.
6. Measurable disease meeting protocol defined criteria.
Phase 1b expansion cohort melanoma subjects, Phase 2 cohort 2:
7. Radiographic/ photographic evidence of disease progression according to Response
Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) after no more than two prior
systemic regimens for unresectable Stage III or Stage IV disease.
8. American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) unresectable Stage III or Stage IV
melanoma.
9. Measurable disease meeting protocol defined criteria.
All subjects:
10. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
11. Adequately controlled blood pressure (BP) with or without antihypertensive
medications, defined as BP ? 150/90 mmHg at Screening and no change in
antihypertensive medications within 1 week before the Screening Visit.
12. Adequate renal function
13. Adequate bone marrow function:
14. Adequate blood coagulation function, as evidenced by an International Normalized
Ratio (INR) ?1.5.
15. Adequate liver function:
16. Males or females age ?18 years at the time of informed consent.
17. All females must have a negative pregnancy test and those of child-bearing potential
must agree to use the protocol defined contraception methods.
18. Male subjects must agree to use protocol defined contraception methods.
19. Voluntary agreement to provide written informed consent and the willingness and
ability to comply with all aspects of the protocol.
Exclusion
1. Phase 1b Dose Escalation: Subjects who discontinued prior tyrosine kinase inhibitor
(including vascular endothelial growth factor receptor [VEGFR] and c-Met receptor
targeted therapy) due to toxicity will be ineligible.
2. Phase 1b Dose Escalation (3+3 portion) subjects with primary CNS tumors
3. Phase 1b Dose Escalation subjects, melanoma subjects in expansion cohort and Phase 2
Cohort 2: Subjects with untreated or unstable metastases to the central nervous
system (CNS) are excluded. Subjects who have completed local therapy and have
discontinued the use of steroids for this indication at least 4 weeks prior to
commencing treatment and have remained asymptomatic for at least 4 weeks prior to
commencing treatment are eligible.
4. Phase 2: Prior exposure to VEGF-targeted treatment or c-Met or human growth factor
(HGF) targeted treatment.
5. Phase 2: Active malignancy (except for study indications; or melanoma in situ, basal
or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix) within
the past 24 months.
Phase 1b expansion cohort glioblastoma subjects and Phase 2 Cohort 1:
6. More than two recurrences of glioblastoma.
7. Prior bevacizumab treatment.
8. Surgical resection of brain tumor within 4 weeks, or prior stereotactic biopsy within
2 weeks of Screening visit.
9. Prior radiotherapy within 12 weeks unless there is progression meeting protocol
criteria.
10. Subjects who have received enzyme-inducing anti-epileptic agents within 14 days
before the first dose of study drug (e.g., carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenobarbital,
primidone, or oxcarbazepine).
Phase 1b expansion cohort subjects with melanoma and Phase 2 Cohort 2:
11. More than two prior systemic regimens for unresectable Stage III or Stage IV disease.
All subjects:
12. Prior exposure to E7050 or E7080.
13. Melanoma of intraocular origin.
14. Subjects who have received any anticancer treatment within 21 days (6 weeks for
nitrosureas Cohort 1) or any investigational agent within 30 days prior to the first

previous anticancer treatment.
15. Major surgery within 3 weeks prior to the first dose of study drug.
16. If >1+ proteinuria on urinalysis will undergo 24-hour urine collection for
quantitative assessment of proteinuria. Subjects with urine protein ?1 g/24-hour
will be ineligible.
17. Inability to take oral medication or any other condition that might affect the
absorption of E7050 or E7080.
