A Study of GSK2110183 in Subjects With Proteasome Inhibitor Refractory Multiple Myeloma

An Open-Label, Single Arm, Phase Ib/II Study of GSK2110183 in Subjects With Proteasome Inhibitor Refractory Multiple Myeloma

This is a single arm, open-label, Phase Ib/II study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of the oral AKT inhibitor, GSK2110183, when administered to subjects with proteasome inhibitor refractory multiple myeloma (MM). During Part 1 of the study, GSK2110183 will be administered to subjects in sequential Pharmacokinetic (PK) Cohorts on a continuous daily dosing schedule in 21-day cycles until one of the Treatment Discontinuation Criteria is met. The PK Cohorts will characterize the PK of GSK2110183 in plasma and urine as well as determine the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of GSK2110183. The RP2D will be that dose that provides adequate PK exposure and biologic activity without exceeding the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in MM subjects as defined in the current study. In Part 2 of the study, the RP2D will be further evaluated using a flexible 2-stage design with a stopping rule to allow for early termination based on lack of efficacy at the end of Stage 1. The first stage will accrue 20 subjects who will receive GSK2110183 at the RP2D. If a clinical response is observed in at least 1 subject in Stage 1, the study will proceed to Stage 2 and 20 additional subjects will be enrolled. GSK2110183 will be administered in Part 2 (Stage 1 and Stage 2) on a continuous daily dosing schedule in 21 day cycles until International Myeloma Working Group criteria for progression are met, at which point the subject will proceed to GSK 2110183 + bortezomib salvage therapy provided they meet the additional eligibility criteria for this phase of the study. GSK2110183 and bortezomib will be continued until one of the Treatment Discontinuation Criteria is met.

Exploratory PK/PD analyses may be performed to examine the potential relationships between GSK2110183 pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic biomarkers.

This is a single arm, open-label, Phase Ib/II study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of the oral AKT inhibitor GSK2110183 when administered to subjects with proteasome inhibitor refractory MM.

During Part 1 of the study, dose escalation will follow a 3 + 3 dose escalation procedure starting with an initial dosing regimen of 125 mg GSK2110183 with escalate to next dose level with an increase of GSK2110183 less than or equal to 50% if DLTs are below a certain level described in the protocol. Subjects will receive a single dose of GSK2110183 on Day -3 of Cycle 0, followed by PK sampling over the next 72 hours. Cycle 1 may commence at any time (but within 7 days) after collection of the 72 hour Cycle 0 PK sample. GSK2110183 will be administered to subjects in sequential PK Cohorts on a continuous daily dosing schedule in 21 day cycles until one of the Treatment Discontinuation Criteria is met. Sparse PK sampling will also be collected during the first 8 cycles. Urine PK samples will be collected prior to the first dose of GSK2110183 and as a 24-hour urine collection at steady-state. The PK Cohorts will characterize the pharmacokinetics of GSK2110183 in plasma and urine, as well as determine the RP2D of GSK2110183. The RP2D will be that dose that provides adequate PK exposure and biologic activity without exceeding the MTD in MM subjects as defined in the current study. GSK2110183 + bortezomib salvage therapy will not be given to subjects who progress on GSK2110183 monotherapy in the PK Cohorts. Following the completion of PK sampling in the PK Cohorts and the determination of a RP2D of GSK2110183, Part 2 of the study will then commence at the RP2D.

Part 2 of the study will further evaluate the R2PD using a flexible 2-stage design with a stopping rule to allow for early termination based on lack of efficacy at the end of Stage 1. GSK2110183 will be administered on a continuous daily dosing schedule in 21-day cycles until one of the Treatment Discontinuation Criteria is met. Twenty subjects will be enrolled in Stage 1, if no subject responds, the study will be stopped; otherwise, the study will continue to enroll an additional 20 subjects in Stage 2. At the end of Stage 2, if 4 or fewer of 40 subjects respond, the study will not be deemed as a success for the monotherapy. Those subjects meeting the criteria for progression during Part 2 [as defined by the 2011 Report of the International Myeloma Workshop Consensus Panel 1], who also meet the additional eligibility criteria for salvage therapy may proceed to GSK2110183 + bortezomib salvage therapy. GSK2110183 + bortezomib salvage therapy will be continued until one of the Treatment Discontinuation Criteria is met.

Exploratory PK/PD analyses may be performed in Part 1 and Part 2 to examine the potential relationships between GSK2110183 pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamic biomarkers (e.g., pAKT, pPRAS40 in the bone marrow), markers for disease activity in serum (e.g., beta-2 microglobulin, C-reactive protein), or blood-based cytokines and angiogenesis factors (e.g., IL-6, VEGF).

A secondary objective of this study is to determine whether the addition of bortezomib to GSK2110183 has clinical activity in patients refractory to proteasome inhibitor therapy who progress on single-agent GSK2110183 therapy.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Capable of giving written informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form.
• Male or female who is at least 18 years of age or older.
• Histologically confirmed diagnosis of secretory MM (must have measurable M protein in serum or urine) with one or more of the following:

Serum M-protein count greater than or equal to 1 g/dL Urinary M-protein greater than or equal to 200 mg/24 hours Serum free light chain (FLC) assay: involved FLC level greater than or equal to 10 mg/dL (greater than or equal to 100 mg/L) and a serum FLC ratio outside of normal range. Biopsy proven plasmacytoma

• Relapsed after 2 or more lines of systemic therapy including at least one proteasome inhibitor (i.e., bortezomib, carfilzomib) and at least one immunomodulatory agent (i.e., lenalidomide, pomalidomide) AND refractory to proteasome inhibitor therapy. Subjects will be considered refractory to proteasome inhibitor therapy if they experienced stable disease or progressive disease as the best response on their last proteasome inhibitor containing therapy OR progressed within 60 days following two or more cycles of proteasome inhibitor therapy. A line of therapy is generally separated by disease progression from a preceding line of therapy; therefore, the preparative regimen (with or without total body irradiation) and subsequent autologous stem cell rescue used for an autologous stem cell transplant are considered as one line of therapy.
• Subjects with a history of autologous stem cell transplant are eligible for study participation provided the following eligibility criteria are met:

Transplant was more than 100 days prior to study enrolment No active infection Subject meets the remainder of the eligibility criteria

• Performance status score of 0 to 2 according to Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG).
• Able to swallow and retain oral medication.
• Fasting serum glucose less than126 mg/dL (<7 mmol/L). Subjects diagnosed previously with diabetes mellitus type 2 must also meet the additional following criteria:

Diagnosis of diabetes greater than 6 months prior to enrollment Glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) less than 8% at screening

• A female subject is eligible to participate if she is of the following:

Non-childbearing potential (i.e., physiologically incapable of becoming pregnant) defined as premenopausal females with a documented tubal ligation or hysterectomy; or postmenopausal defined as 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea (in questionable cases a blood sample with simultaneous follicle stimulating hormone greater than 40 MlU/ml and estradiol less than 40 pg/ml (less than 147 pmol/L) is confirmatory. Females on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and whose menopausal status is in doubt will be required to use one of the contraception methods listed in the protocol if they wish to continue their HRT during the study. Otherwise, they must discontinue HRT to allow confirmation of post-menopausal status prior to study enrollment. For most forms of HRT, at least 2 to 4 weeks will elapse between the cessation of therapy and the blood draw; this interval depends on the type and dosage of HRT. Following confirmation of their post-menopausal status, they can resume use of HRT during the study without use of a contraceptive method.

Childbearing potential, has a negative serum pregnancy test during the screening period, and agrees to use adequate contraception (methods listed in the protocol) from screening until four weeks after the last dose of GSK2110183. Note: Oral contraceptives are not reliable due to potential drug-drug interaction.

• Male subjects with female partners of childbearing potential must have had a prior vasectomy or agree to use adequate contraception from the time of the first dose of GSK2110183 until 3 months after the last dose of GSK2110183.
