E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Monotherapy Dose Escalation and Combination Dose Escalation:
Observed Dose Limiting Toxicities
• Monotherapy Expansion: Safety and tolerability as measured by
incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and lab
abnormalities
• Monotherapy Phase 2 and Combination Phase 2: CBR (CR [+ PR] + SD ≥ 24 weeks). PR will only
be included for patients with measurable disease. |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Monotherapy Dose Escalation and Monotherapy Expansion: Single agent
ZN-c5 will be evaluated at sequentially escalating doses starting with 50 mg
and up to 1200 mg administered orally, once daily (alternatively, this total
daily dose may be divided by 2 and administered BID [every 12 hours]),
using a 28-day cycle (Dose Escalation). During or on completion of the Dose
Escalation, additional patients may be enrolled onto one or more dose
levels for the Monotherapy Expansion portion of the study. The decision to
expand will be based on the PK, safety and available biomarker data.
|
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
• All Cohorts: Safety and tolerability as measured by incidence of
treatment-emergent AEs and lab abnormalities
• Monotherapy Expansion: CBR (CR [+ PR] + SD ≥ 24 weeks). PR will
only be included for patients with measurable disease.
• All Cohorts: Tumor response including ORR, DOR, CBR, PFS using
Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v.1.1) as
assessed by Investigators, and OS
• All Cohorts: ZN-c5 (and its potential metabolites as applicable) and
palbociclib (if applicable) plasma pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters
(including Cmax, Tmax, AUClast, t½ and Ctau, as applicable)
|
|
E.5.2.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
Following the determination of the MTD/RP2D for ZN-c5 in combination with palbociclib, additional
subjects will be enrolled to further assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of ZN-c5 in
combination with palbociclib.
Patients are evaluable for assessment of anti-tumor efficacy (based on CBR) if they were dosed and had
at least 1 post baseline disease/tumor assessment. CBR as measured using RECIST v.1.1
will be assessed to provide a preliminary, anti-tumor activity evaluation.
