Phase 1b:
- To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of oprozomib given orally, once daily, on 2 different schedules: 5 consecutive days every 14 days (bimonthly) or 2 consecutive days every 7 days (weekly) for a 14-day treatment cycle, both schedules given in combination with dexamethasone.
- To evaluate safety and tolerability.
Phase 2:
- To estimate the overall response rate (ORR), defined as the proportion of subjects with the best overall response of stringent complete response (sCR), complete response (CR), near complete response (nCR), very good partial response (VGPR), and partial response (PR) as defined by the International Myeloma Working Group-Uniform Response Criteria (IMWG-URC) and modified European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) criteria.
- To evaluate safety and tolerability. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
- To evaluate pharmacokinetics (PK).
- To estimate clinical benefit rate (CBR), defined as ORR plus minimal response (MR), as defined by the EBMT criteria.

Prior therapy must consist of at least 1 regimen that included lenalidomide and/or bortezomib. Patients should be considered to be an appropriate candidate for a clinical trial by their treating physician. Relapsed patients must have previously achieved ≥ MR on at least 1 line of therapy as assessed by the treating physician.

9. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 3 days prior to receiving the first dose and agree to use effective methods of contraception during the study and for 3 months following the last dose of study drug. Postmenopausal females (> 45 years old and without menses for > 1 year) and surgically sterilized females are exempt from these requirements. Male patients must use an effective barrier method of contraception during the study and for 3 months following the last dose if sexually active with a female of childbearing potential. |

7. Prior oprozomib exposure.
8. Major surgery within 3 weeks prior to first dose.
9. Congestive heart failure ([CHF] New York Heart Association Class III to IV), symptomatic ischemia, conduction abnormalities uncontrolled by conventional intervention, or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to first dose.
10. Uncontrolled hypertension or uncontrolled diabetes.
11. Active infection requiring systemic antibiotics, antivirals, or antifungals within 2 weeks prior to first dose.
12. Known or suspected human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or patients who are HIV seropositive.
13. Active hepatitis A, B, or C infection.
14. Significant neuropathy (Grade 3, Grade 4, or Grade 2 with pain) at the time of the first dose.
15. Other malignancy within the past 3 years with the exception of adequately treated basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell skin cancer, thyroid cancer, carcinoma in situ of the cervix, carcinoma in situ of the breast, prostate cancer of Gleason Score 6 or less with stable prostate specific antigen levels, or cancer considered cured by surgical resection.
