Efficacy and Safety of REC-2282 in Patients With Progressive Neurofibromatosis Type 2 (NF2) Mutated Meningiomas

This is a two-staged, Phase 2/3, randomized, multi-center study to investigate the efficacy and safety of REC-2282 in participants with progressive NF2 mutated meningiomas.

Why the study stopped: Study was terminated due to sponsor decision. This decision was not related to safety concerns with REC-2282.

Key information

About this study

Cohort A (Phase 2) will provide early data on efficacy and safety of REC-2282 in participants with progressive NF2 mutated meningiomas, and provide guidance for the dose in the confirmatory part of the study (Cohort B, Phase 3). The purpose of Cohort B of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of REC-2282 compared with placebo in participants with progressive NF2 mutated meningiomas.

In both cohorts, there will be a screening period of up to 8 weeks, a treatment period, a 4-week safety follow-up period after the end of treatment, and a 6-month post-study follow-up. The first 8 participants enrolled in Cohort A will complete a food effect run-in sub study. At the end of the study period, participants may be offered participation in an open-label extension (OLE) period.

In Cohort A, adult participants will be randomized to one of two dose levels of REC-2282.

In Cohort B, participants will be randomized to REC-2282 treatment (dose to be determined from Cohort A) arm or placebo arm in a ratio of 2:1.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • ≥12 years of age and weighing at least 40 kg
  • Progressive meningioma that is amenable to volumetric analysis
  • Has either 1) sporadic meningioma with confirmed NF2 mutation; or, 2) confirmed diagnosis of NF2 disease (revised Manchester criteria); or, 3) at least one NF2-related tumor (with pathogenic germline or proven mosaic NF2 variant)
  • Adequate bone marrow function
  • Has provided written informed consent/assent to participate in the study

Exclusion criteria

  • Progressive disease associated with significant or disabling clinical symptoms likely to require surgery or radiation therapy within the next 3 months.
  • Received prior surgery, radiosurgery, or laser interstitial thermal therapy in the target tumor, or immediately adjacent to the target tumor within 12 months prior to screening.
  • Received an anti- tumor agent for meningioma within 3 months, or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer), prior to screening.
  • History of an active malignancy within the previous 3 years except for localized cancers that are considered cured, and, in the opinion of the investigator, present a low risk of recurrence.
  • Received another investigational drug within 30 days prior to screening
  • Pregnant, lactating, or is planning to attempt to become pregnant or impregnate someone during this study or within 90 days after the last dosing cycle.

Treatment and study plan

REC-2282

Drug

Other names: AR-42, OSU-HDAC42, NSC-D736012

Placebo

Drug

Primary outcomes

  1. Cohort A: Number of Participants with Progression-free survival (PFS) at 6 Months

    Time frame: 6 months

    In Cohort A, PFS is defined as the number of participants who are alive and progression-free at 6 months with progression defined as having an increase of 20% or more in the target tumor identified.

  2. Cohort B: Number of Participants with PFS up to 3 years

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

    In Cohort B, PFS is defined as the time from the date of randomization until disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurs first.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Cohort A: Change from Baseline in Target Tumor Volume at 6 Months

    Time frame: 6 months

  2. Cohort A: Number of Participants with PFS at 12 and 24 Months

    Time frame: 12 and 24 Months

    In Cohort A, PFS is defined as the number of participants who are alive and progression-free at 12 and 24 months with progression defined as having an increase of 20% or more in the target tumor identified.

  3. Cohorts A and B: Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

  4. Cohorts A and B: Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

  5. Cohorts A and B: Time to Response (TTR)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

  6. Cohorts A and B: Duration of Response (DOR)

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

  7. Cohorts A and B: Time to Surgery/radiation for Target Tumors

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

  8. Cohorts A and B: Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of REC-2282

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

  9. Cohorts A and B: Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of REC-2282

    Time frame: Up to 3 years

  10. Cohorts A and B: Area under the curve from 0 to 24hr (AUC) of REC-2282

    Time frame: Predose to 24 hours postdose
