Phase 1: testing Ulixertinib for Tumor, Solid

This phase I study is designed to establish the safety, maximally tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of the ERK inhibitor ulixertinib (BVD-523) when combined with the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib.

Official registry: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT03454035 · UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center · enrollment listed as 45

What this phase means

Phase 1: the first tests in people. The main question is safety and dose, not whether it cures the condition. Groups are small. Side effects are watched closely.

Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.

What the registry says happens

If you join, the listed intervention(s) are Ulixertinib, or Palbociclib. The registry lists allocation as na. This phase I study is designed to establish the safety, maximally tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of the ERK inhibitor ulixertinib (BVD-523) when combined with the CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib.

They plan to enroll about 45 people at Chapel Hill. Taking part typically means taking a study drug (or dummy pill) plus check-ins.

Official title (unrewritten)

Ulixertinib (BVD-523) in Combination With Palbociclib in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors With Expansion Cohort in Previously Treated Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer and Metastatic RAS-mutant and NF1-mutant (no BRAFV600 Mutations) Melanoma

Interventions: Ulixertinib, Palbociclib

Primary outcome (registry wording): Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)

Who it is for (from inclusion criteria)

  • Ages 18 Years to 99 Years
  • Age ≥ 18 years at the time of consent (no upper age limit)
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of ≤ 2
  • Dose escalation cohorts: Histologically confirmed advanced solid tumor refractory to standard of care therapy, or for which there is no accepted standard of care
  • Expansion cohort (at RP2D): metastatic pancreatic cancer or malign melanoma patients who have received at least one line of therapy in the metastatic setting
  • Expansion cohort (at RP2D) for histologically confirmed unresectable stage III or stage IV melanoma with the following additional eligibility requirements:
  • Tumors molecular profiling genetic aberrations: NRASG12/G13/Q61, KRASG12/G13, HRASG12/G13, any amplifications of the NRAS, KRAS, or HRAS genes. For NF1 mutations, subjects with loss-of-function NF1mutations and without any BRAFV600 mutations will be enrolled
  • Documented disease refractory to at least one PD1/PD-L1 inhibitor, defined as disease progression following at least two infusions of the same drug
