Study Details

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of ZEN003694 in combination with binimetinib in treating patients with solid tumors that carry RAS alterations and that have spread to other places in the body (advanced/metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). ZEN003694 is an oral medication with potential anticancer activity. It is an inhibitor of a family of proteins called bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) which play important role during development and cellular growth. ZEN003694 may stop the growth of tumor cells that produce BET. Binimetinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action proteins called MEK1 and MEK2, that signal cancer cells to multiply. It may help keep cancer cells from growing and spreading. There is pre-clinical evidence that using ZEN003694 and binimetinib together may shrink or stabilize cancers studied in this trial. There are two parts of this study; dose escalation and dose expansion. In the dose escalation part of this study, different people will get different doses of the study drugs ZEN003694 and binimetinib. In the dose expansion part of this study, the highest dose with manageable side effects will be given to additional people. This will help to understand the side effects that may happen with this drug combination.

Arms

  • Experimental: Treatment (ZEN-3694, binimetinib)
    Patients receive ZEN-3694 PO either QD on days 1-28 of each cycle or for 5 days on followed by 2 days off during each week of each cycle and binimetinib PO BID on days 1-28 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. During the dose expansion phase, patients will have two mandatory biopsies - one before beginning the study and the second at day 15 of cycle 1. The study biopsy takes small pieces of cancer tissue from patient's body to look for markers (substances made by, on, or in tumor cells) related to how the study treatment works. Patients also undergo collection of blood samples at screening and on study and undergo CT or MRI throughout the trial.

Primary Outcome Measure

Incidence of dose limiting toxicities (Part 1 [Dose Escalation]) [ Time Frame: Up to 28 days from treatment start date ]
