BR101801 in Adult Patients With Advanced Hematologic Malignancies(Phase I)

A Phase I, Open-label, Multi-center, Dose Escalation, and Expansion Study of BR101801 in Adult Patients With Advanced Hematologic Malignancies

This is a Phase I, multi-center, open-label, FIH study comprising of 2 study parts (Phase Ia, Phase Ib).

The Phase Ia (dose escalation) part of the study is designed to determine the safety, tolerability, and maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended dose for expansion (RP2D) of BR101801 in subjects with relapsed/refractory B cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL)/small lymphocytic leukemia (SLL), and peripheral T cell lymphoma (PTCL).

The Phase Ib (dose expansion) part of the study is designed to assess tumor response and safety in specific advanced relapsed/refractory Peripheral T-cell lymphoma(PTCL) at a dose of BR101801 identified in Phase Ia. Once the RP2D has been determined in Phase Ia (dose escalation), Phase Ib (dose expansion) will commence.

1. Phase Ia (Dose Escalation)

   Primary Objectives

   • To assess the safety and tolerability of BR101801 in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma, CLL/SLL, and PTCL.
   • To assess DLT and to determine the MTD and/or the RDE dose for BR101801 when administered orally on a daily schedule in 4-week cycles until disease progression.

   SecondaryObjectives

   • To characterize the plasma and urine PK of BR101801.
   • To assess the preliminary antitumor activity of BR101801.

2. Phase Ib (Dose Expansion)

Primary Objectives

• To assess the safety and tolerability of BR101801 at the RP2D dose in subjects with relapsed/refractory Peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).

SecondaryObjectives

• To assess clinical activity of BR101801 when administered orally on a daily schedule in 4-week cycles until disease progression.
• To assess the plasma PK of BR101801.

11. Subject having laboratory values defined as:

    • Creatinine clearance (measured or calculated per institutional standard practice) ≥ 60 mL/min. GFR can also be used in place of creatinine clearance.
    • Total bilirubin < 1.5 × ULN, except for subjects with Gilbert's syndrome who are excluded if total bilirubin > 3.0 × ULN or direct bilirubin < 1.5 × ULN.
    • ALT < 2.5 × ULN, except for subjects who have tumor involvement of the liver, who are included if ALT < 5 × ULN.
    • AST < 2.5 × ULN, except for subjects that have tumor involvement of the liver, who are included if AST < 5 × ULN.
    • Absolute neutrophil count > 1.0 × 109/L.
    • Platelet count > 75 × 109/L.
    • Hemoglobin > 8 g/dL.

<Exclusion Criteria>

1. Presence of overt leptomeningeal or active CNS metastases, or CNS metastases that require local CNS-directed therapy or increasing doses of corticosteroids within the prior 2 weeks. Patients with treated brain metastases should be neurologically stable and off steroids for at least 2 weeks before administration of any study treatment.

2. Impaired cardiac function or clinically significant cardiac disease

3. Patients with interstitial pneumonia or history of drug-induced interstitial pneumonia/pneumonitis.

4. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.

5. Patients who are positive for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb), or hepatitis C virus antibody (HCVAb).

6. Chronic liver disease or chronic hepatitis

7. Any gastrointestinal disorders interfering with study drug absorption or are unable to swallow tablets or capsules.

8. Malignant disease, other than that being treated in this study.

9. Prior PI3K inhibitor will be accepted in the dose escalation part of the study (Phase Ia) only.

10. For patients with lymphoma:

    • Systemic antineoplastic therapy (including cytotoxic chemotherapy, alfa-interferon [INF], and toxin immunoconjugates) or any experimental therapy within 3 weeks or 5 half lives, whichever is shorter, before the first dose of study treatment.
    • Therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitor within 5 half-lives before the first dose of study treatment.
    • Unconjugated monoclonal antibody therapies < 6 weeks before the first dose of study treatment.

11. Patients receiving systemic chronic steroid therapy or any immunosuppressive therapy (≥ 10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent).

12. Use of any live vaccines against infectious diseases within 4 weeks of initiation of study treatment.

13. Use of hematopoietic colony-stimulating growth factors, thrombopoietin mimetics, or erythroid-stimulating agents ≤ 2 weeks prior to start of study drug.

14. Patients with a history of stroke or having active neurological symptoms, with the exception of chronic conditions which, in the opinion of the neurologist, Investigator, and the Sponsor, would not impact ongoing neurologic assessments while on study treatment.

15. Active infection requiring systemic or antiviral antibiotic therapy.

16. Subjects with active CMV infection.

17. Subjects receiving moderate or potent CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers and are unable to withdraw until 2 weeks or 5 times longer than the half-life, whichever is shorter, before the first dose of study treatment.
