Purpose

Open label first-in-human study of TH1902 in solid cancer, with 2 sequential parts: Part 1 (dose escalation): patients with recurrent advanced solid tumors (all comers) that have relapsed or are refractory to standard chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy, and for which no known effective therapies exist. Part 2 (expansion): selected patient populations with recurrent advanced TNBC, gynecological cancer (epithelial ovarian or endometrial cancer), colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer that have relapsed or are refractory to standard chemotherapy, surgery, radiation therapy, and for which no known effective therapies exist.

Detailed Description

      This first-in-human study is designed as a multi-center, open-label, with 2 sequential parts:

      Part 1 (dose escalation): will comprise patients with recurrent advanced solid tumors (all
      comers) that have relapsed or are refractory to standard chemotherapy, surgery, radiation
      therapy, and for which no known effective therapies exist.

      Part 2 (expansion): will comprise selected patient populations with recurrent advanced TNBC,
      gynecological cancer (epithelial ovarian or endometrial cancer), colorectal cancer and
      pancreatic cancer that have relapsed or are refractory to standard chemotherapy, surgery,
      radiation therapy, and for which no known effective therapies exist.

      The PK profiles of TH1902 and free docetaxel will be evaluated for all patients in Parts 1
      and 2. Once the MTD has been reached in Part 1, patients with TNBC, gynecological cancer
      (epithelial ovarian or endometrial cancer), colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer (10
      patients per cancer type) will be enrolled in Part 2 and treated at the MTD or RP2D to
      further assess the safety and tolerability of TH1902. The preliminary anti-tumor activity of
      TH1902 will be evaluated for all patients as per the response evaluation criteria in solid
      tumors (RECIST 1.1; Eisenhauer, 2009).

      The study will use a modified rapid dose-escalation design as described by Simon et al.
      (1997). A starting dose of 30 mg/m2 is proposed based on the available data for TH1902 and
      the known safety profile of docetaxel.

      Dose escalation by dose-doubling will be done for the first 2 dose levels, followed by a
      modified Fibonacci dose escalation scheme (i.e. dose increases of 67%, 50%, 40% and 33%)
      thereafter for each dose level. Patients in Part 1 will be observed for 21 days post Cycle 1
      Day 1 drug administration for dose limiting toxicity (DLT). Dose escalation to the next dose
      level will proceed following satisfactory review of safety data until the MTD is reached. The
      MTD is defined as that dose-level at which ≤1 of 6 patients in a cohort develop an emergent
      DLT.

      Once the MTD has been defined, patients with TNBC, gynecological cancer (epithelial ovarian
      or endometrial cancer) colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer may be treated at the MTD or
      Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D), to further assess the safety and tolerability of TH1902, and
      the preliminary anti-tumor activity of TH1902.

        Inclusion Criteria:

        Patients must meet all the following inclusion criteria within 21 days of study
        participation (Cycle 1, Day 1) in order to be eligible to participate in the study:

          1. Are ≥18 years old males or females.

          2. Are capable of understanding and have voluntarily signed the informed consent document
             and willing to comply with study requirements.

          3. Have histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnostic of metastatic cancer or
             advanced-stage solid tumor that has progressed following standard therapy or for
             which, in the opinion of the Investigator, no standard effective therapy is available
             or the patient has a contraindication to or declines standard therapy.

          4. Have measurable disease according to the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors
             (RECIST 1.1).

          5. Have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 to 1.

          6. Have an expected survival of at least 3 months.

          7. Have a negative pregnancy test result at screening confirmed by a serum beta-human
             chorionic gonadotropin (β-HCG) (for women of childbearing potential (WOCBP); not
             applicable to patients who are unable to become pregnant, including those with
             bilateral oophorectomy, salpingectomy and/or hysterectomy or postmenopausal [no menses
             for the previous 12 months]) or those that have had definitive radiation therapy to
             the pelvis. The test must be performed within 1 week before Day 1 of treatment.

          8. WOCBP who are sexually active with a nonsterilised male partner (sterilised males
             should be ≥1 year postvasectomy and have confirmed that they have obtained
             documentation of the absence of sperm in the ejaculate) and male patients whose sexual
             partners are WOCBP should agree to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual
             intercourse) or use 2 effective methods of contraception, including at least 1 method
             with a failure rate of <1% per year, during the treatment period and for at least 6
             months and 3 months for female and male patients, respectively, following the last
             dose of TH1902.

             • Effective contraceptive measures include the following:

               -  Intrauterine device (e.g. IUD) plus one barrier method.

               -  Oral, implantable or injectable contraceptive plus one barrier method.

               -  Two barrier methods. Effective barrier methods are male or female condoms,
                  diaphragms and spermicides (cream or gel that contains a chemical to kill sperm).

          9. WOCBP must agree to not donate ova and agree to ongoing pregnancy testing during the
             course of the study and 6 months following the last dose of TH1902. Male patients must
             refrain from donating sperm during the course of the study and 3 months following the
             last dose of TH1902.

         10. Male patients with pregnant female partners, must agree to remain abstinent or use a
             condom (latex condom is recommended) during the treatment period and for at least 3
             months after the last dose of TH1902 to avoid exposing the embryo, even if he has
             undergone a successful vasectomy.

         11. Patients with HIV/HBV/HBC will not be excluded from entry into the study provided the
             following criteria are met:

               -  Patients with HIV infection must have CD4+ T-cell (CD4+) counts ≥ 350 cells/µL.

               -  The following eligibility criteria are for patients with evidence of chronic HBV
                  infection or patients with history of chronic HCV or who are virologically
                  suppressed on HCV treatment

                    -  Liver-related laboratory eligibility criteria should be the same as that for
                       the general population.

                    -  Exceptions: AST/ALT and bilirubin criteria may be less stringent in patients
                       with cancers such as hepatocellular carcinoma and cholangiocarcinoma in whom
                       hepatic function based on Child-Pugh score should be used.

                    -  Patients with chronic HBV infection with active disease who meet the
                       criteria for anti HBV therapy should be on a suppressive antiviral therapy
                       prior to initiation of cancer therapy.

                    -  Patients on concurrent HCV treatments must have HCV below the limit of
                       quantification.

                    -  Patients with untreated HCV may be enrolled if the HCV is stable, the
                       patient is not at risk for hepatic decompensation, and the investigational
                       cancer treatment is not expected to exacerbate the HCV infection.

               -  Patients with chronic HBV infection with active disease who meet the criteria for
                  anti HBV therapy should be on a suppressive antiviral therapy prior to initiation
                  of cancer therapy.

               -  Patients with a history of HCV infection should have completed curative antiviral
                  treatment and HCV viral load must be below the limit of quantification. For
                  incurable cancers, patients with untreated HCV may be enrolled if the HCV is
                  stable, the patient is not at risk for hepatic decompensation, and the
                  investigational cancer treatment is not expected to exacerbate the HCV infection.

        Patients must meet the following additional criterion to enter in Part 2:

        1. Histologically or cytologically confirmed TNBC, gynecological cancer (epithelial ovarian
        or endometrial cancer), colorectal cancer, or pancreatic cancer, and for which no standard
