Study to Assess Safety and Efficacy of the Second Mitochondrial-derived Activator of Caspases (SMAC) Mimetic Debio 1143

Part A (dose-optimization)- to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) taking into account dose-limiting toxicity (DLT/s) in Cycle 1, overall safety/tolerability and pharmacokinetic (PK), by optimizing doses of Debio 1143 when combined with the standard dose of nivolumab, as well as treatment compliance in participants with advanced solid malignancies who failed prior systemic standard treatments.

Part B (basket trial)- to evaluate the preliminary anti-tumor activity of Debio 1143 at the RP2D in combination with nivolumab at the standard dose, overall and in each participant cohort (Cohort 1: small cell lung cancer [SCLC]; Cohort 2: squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck [SCCHN]; Cohort 3: gastrointestinal (GI) cancers with known microsatellite instability-high/mismatch repair deficiency (MSI-H/MMRd) or other deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage repair (DDR) abnormalities, including homologous recombination deficiency (HRD); Cohort 4: platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer [EOC], endometrial cancer, primary peritoneal cancer (PPC) or cervical cancer, with known MSIH/MMRd, hereditary/somatic mutations of the breast cancer 1 (BRCA1) and BRCA2 genes or other DNA DDR abnormalities (incl. HRD).

Primary outcomes

  1. Part A: Number of Participants With Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLTs)

    Time frame: Part A: Cycle 1 (28 days)

    DLT: any of following treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) as per NCI CTCAE Grade V5.0 Criteria (Grades 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe and 4 or 5= life-threatening/fatal outcomes) which are possibly, probably or definitely related to combination treatment and occurring in Cycle 1 (1 Cycle=28 days): Any Grade 4 or 5 hematologic toxicity, clinical or laboratory non-hematologic toxicity; febrile neutropenia any grade, Grade 3 thrombocytopenia if associated with bleeding or requiring platelet transfusion; Grade 2; Grade 3 and any other Grade 3 non-hematologic, treatment-related clinical toxicity lasting ≥3 days; delay of >2 weeks due to drug-related toxicity in initiating Cycle 2; unable to complete at least 70% of the scheduled treatment (>six Debio 1143 skipped doses in Cycle 1) due to treatment-related toxicity; required dose reduction in Cycle 1 or on Cycle 2 Day 1 or requirement for treatment withdrawal due to treatment-related toxicity (even if not meeting other DLT criteria).

  2. Part B: Confirmed Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Time frame: Part B: From the start of study treatment until disease progression/recurrence was documented, a new systemic anti-cancer therapy was started or analysis cut-off, whichever occurred first (up to approximately 2.05 years)

    ORR was determined per response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) v1.1 and/or gynecologic cancer intergroup (GCIG) criteria (for Cohort 4). ORR was calculated as the percentage of participants with a confirmed objective response. A confirmed objective response is a confirmed best overall response of partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) recorded after the start of study treatment until disease progression/recurrence was documented, a new systemic anti-cancer therapy was started or analysis cut-off, whichever occurred first. CR is defined by the disappearance of all target lesions and reduction of any pathological lymph nodes in short axis to <10 millimeters (mm). PR is defined by at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum diameter.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Parts A and B: Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Including Laboratory Abnormalities Reported as TEAEs, and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Time frame: From the first study drug administration and up to 5 months after last nivolumab infusion, or the earliest date of new anticancer therapy -1 day, whichever occurs first (up to approximately 2.08 years in Part A and 2.05 years in Part B)

    An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical trial participant administered a medicinal product that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. A TEAE is any new, related or non-related, undesirable medical occurrence or change of an existing condition in a participant that occurs during the treatment-emergent period, starting or worsening on or after the first study drug administration and up to 5 months after last nivolumab infusion, or the earliest date of new anticancer therapy - 1 day, whichever occurs first. An SAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in death; is life-threatening (i.e., puts the participant at immediate risk of death); requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is otherwise medically significant.

A TEAE is any new, related or non-related, undesirable medical occurrence or change of an existing condition in a participant that occurs during the treatment-emergent period, starting or worsening on or after the first study drug administration and up to 5 months after last nivolumab infusion, or the earliest date of new anticancer therapy - 1 day, whichever occurs first.

  5. Parts A and B: Number of Participants With Markedly Abnormal Change From Baseline in Electrocardiogram (ECG) Readings

    Time frame: From Baseline up to end of treatment (up to approximately 1.53 years in Part A and up to 1 year in Part B)

    ECG parameters comprised of PR Interval [millisecond (msec)], QRS Interval (msec), QT Interval (msec), QTcB Interval (msec), QTcF Interval (msec), heart rate (HR) (bpm), RR interval (msec), derived HR (msec), calculated as 60000/RR interval [for data checking only: should be within 5% of HR]. Marked abnormal criteria for ECG parameters included absolute values QRS interval: < 50 msec, > 110 msec; absolute values for QT interval, QTcB interval: >450 msec, > 480 msec, > 500 msec, QTcF: > 480 msec, > 500 msec; change from baseline values for QTcB interval, and QTcF: >30 msec increase from baseline, >60 msec increase from baseline. Data for highest on-treatment change from baseline as per the markedly abnormal criteria for ECG parameters are reported. On-treatment is the period of time between the first and last administration of any study drug. Participants with at least one markedly abnormal change from baseline value in the above categories are reported.

    Time frame: From Baseline up to end of treatment (up to approximately 1.53 years in Part A and up to 1 year in Part B)

    The ECOG-PS was used to assess the effect of disease progression on participants' daily activities. ECOG-PS is graded as follows: Grade 0 - fully active, able to carry on all pre-disease performance without restriction; Grade 1 - restricted in physically strenuous activity but ambulatory and able to carry out work of a light or sedentary nature; Grade 2 - ambulatory and capable of all self-care, but unable to carry out any work activities, up and about more than 50% of waking hours; Grade 3 - capable of only limited self-care, confined to bed or chair for more than 50% of waking hours; Grade 4 - completely disabled, cannot carry on any self-care, totally confined to bed or chair; Grade 5 - dead. Shift values from baseline grade to worst on-treatment grade and missing values were reported.
