A Study of KW-2478 in Combination With Bortezomib in Subjects With Relapsed and/or Refractory Multiple Myeloma

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and benefits of the investigational study drug, KW-2478, when given with bortezomib (Velcade®), a drug approved for the treatment of Multiple Myeloma (MM).

The primary objectives:

* To establish the safety, tolerability, and recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) of KW-2478 in combination with bortezomib (Phase I); * To assess the overall response rate (ORR) when subjects with advanced MM are treated (Phase II).

The secondary objectives:

* To characterize the Pharmacokinetic (PK) and Pharmacodynamic (PD) of KW-2478 with bortezomib (Phase I only); * To evaluate for preliminary evidence of efficacy (Phase I); * To determine progression free survival (PFS) and duration of response of KW-2478 with bortezomib (Phase II).

Key information

About this study

This is a multicenter, open label, dose escalation, Phase I / II study in subjects with relapsed and/or refractory MM. Up to 24 subjects to be enrolled in the Phase I to determine the RP2D. Up to 77 additional evaluable subjects to be enrolled in Phase II for a maximum up to 101 subjects treated in the study. Study centers in the USA and the UK will participate in Phase I and II. Centers in the Philippines will be participating in Phase II only. The planned enrollment period is 22 months and the planned study duration is 28 months.

Treatment and study plan

KW-2478

Drug

Administered Days 1, 4, 8 and 11 of a 21 day cycle

Other names: HSP90 Inhibitor

bortezomib

Drug

Administered on Days 1, 4, 8 and 11 of a 21 day cycle

Other names: Velcade

Primary outcomes

  1. To Establish the Safety, Tolerability, and RP2D (Phase 1); To Assess the Overall Response Rate in Subjects With Advanced Multiple Myeloma (Phase 2).

    Time frame: 21 day cycle, up to 52 weeks

    The safety of KW-2478 was determined by reported TEAEs, observed DLTs, changes in PEs, vital sign measurements, ECGs, and laboratory analyses.

    The ORR, was defined as the best response over a specified number of cycles (calculated and summarized).

    Disease control rate (DCR) was defined as the best response over a specified number of cycles (calculated and summarized). Progression-free survival was defined as the time from the first day of treatment until the date of disease progression or death is first reported (calculated and summarized).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Phase 1: PK Absorption Tmax hr Day 11

    Time frame: PK collected Day 11 of 21-day cycle

    Descriptive summary statistics (number, arithmetic mean, standard deviation [SDev], coefficient of variation [CV%]) for concentration and PK data for KW-2478 and Bortezomib in Phase 1 were presented by cohort, dose level and day.

  2. Phase 1: PK Exposure Cmax ng/mL Day 11

    Time frame: PK collected Day 11 of 21-day cycle

    Descriptive summary statistics (number, arithmetic mean, standard deviation [SDev], coefficient of variation [CV%]) for concentration and PK data for KW-2478 and Bortezomib in Phase 1 were presented by cohort, dose level and day.

  3. Phase 1: PK Exposure AUC0-t hr*ng/mL Day 11

    Time frame: PK collected Day 11 of 21-day cycle

    Descriptive summary statistics (number, arithmetic mean, standard deviation [SDev], coefficient of variation [CV%]) for concentration and PK data for KW-2478 and Bortezomib in Phase 1 were presented by cohort, dose level and day.

  4. Phase 1: PK Elimination t½ hr Day 11

    Time frame: PK collected Day 11 of 21-day cycle

    Descriptive summary statistics (number, arithmetic mean, standard deviation [SDev], coefficient of variation [CV%]) for concentration and PK data for KW-2478 and Bortezomib in Phase 1 were presented by cohort, dose level and day.
