Trial Information

Phase I Trial of Cabozantinib (XL184) for Advanced Solid Tumors in Persons With HIV Infection


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the safety and tolerability of cabozantinib (XL184) (cabozantinib-s-malate)
as a single agent in solid tumor patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
and to determine the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) in this patient population.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To investigate possible pharmacokinetic interactions between cabozantinib and
antiretroviral therapy in persons with HIV infection.

II. To investigate the effects of therapy on patient immune status and HIV viral load.

III. To preliminarily assess objective response rates associated with treatment for commonly
represented tumors.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.

Patients receive cabozantinib-s-malate orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-28. Courses
repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Patients must have known HIV infection and histologically confirmed solid malignancy
that is metastatic or unresectable and for which standard curative or palliative
measures do not exist or are no longer effective; any number of prior cancer
therapies will be permitted; at least 4 weeks must have elapsed since prior
chemotherapy or biological therapy, 6 weeks if the regimen included carmustine (BCNU)
or mitomycin C; prior radiation therapy to the thoracic cavity, abdomen, or pelvis
must be completed at least 3 months prior to registration; radiotherapy to any other
site (including bone or brain metastases) must be completed at least 28 days prior to
registration

- Serologic documentation of HIV infection at any time prior to study entry, as
evidenced by positive enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay (ELISA), positive western
blot, or any other federally approved licensed HIV test; alternatively, this
documentation may include a record that another physician has documented that the
participant has HIV infection based on prior ELISA and western blot, or other
approved diagnostic tests

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status =< 2 (Karnofsky >= 60%)

- Life expectancy of greater than 12 weeks

- Leukocytes >= 3,000/mcL

- Absolute neutrophil count >= 1,500/mcL

- Platelets >= 100,000/mcL

- Total bilirubin=< 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) (for subjects with Gilbert's
disease or with atazanavir- or indinavir-induced unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia
[without aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT)
elevation], =< 3 × ULN)

- AST (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase [SGOT])/ALT (serum glutamate pyruvate
transaminase [SGPT]) =< 3.0 × institutional upper limit of normal

- Creatinine =< 1.5 × ULN

- Creatinine clearance >= 50 mL/min/1.73 m^2 for patients with creatinine levels above
institutional normal

- Hemoglobin >= 9 g/dL

- Serum albumin >= 2.8 g/dL

- Lipase < 2.0 × ULN and no radiologic or clinical evidence of pancreatitis

- Urine protein/creatinine ratio (UPCR) =< 1

- Serum phosphorus >= lower limit of normal (LLN)

- Calcium >= LLN

- Magnesium >= LLN

- Potassium >= LLN

- A cluster of differentiation (CD)4+ lymphocyte count > 50/mcL will be required within
2 weeks of study participation

- Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening;
women of childbearing potential include women who have experienced menarche and who
have not undergone successful surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral tubal
ligation, or bilateral oophorectomy) or are not postmenopausal; postmenopause is
defined as amenorrhea >= 12 consecutive months; note: women who have been amenorrheic
for 12 or more months are still considered to be of childbearing potential if the
amenorrhea is possibly due to prior chemotherapy, antiestrogens, ovarian suppression
or any other reversible reason

- The effects of cabozantinib on the developing human fetus are unknown; or this reason
and because tyrosine kinase inhibitors agents as well as other therapeutic agents
used in this trial are known to be teratogenic, women of child-bearing potential and
men must agree to use adequate contraception prior to study entry and for the
duration of study participation; should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is
pregnant while she or her partner is participating in this study, she should inform
her treating physician immediately; men treated or enrolled on this protocol must
also agree to use adequate contraception prior to the study, for the duration of
study participation, and 6 months after completion of cabozantinib administration;
sexually active subjects (men and women) must agree to use medically accepted barrier
methods of contraception (e.g., male or female condom) during the course of the study
and for 6 months after the last dose of study drug(s), even if oral contraceptives
are also used; all subjects of reproductive potential must agree to use both a
barrier method and a second method of birth control during the course of the study
and for 6 months after the last dose of study drug

- Participating patients MUST receive appropriate care and treatment for HIV infection,
including antiretroviral medications, when clinically indicated and should be under
the care of a physician experienced in HIV management; patients will be eligible
regardless of antiretroviral medication (including no antiretroviral medication)
provided there is no intention to initiate therapy or the regimen has been stable for
at least 4 weeks with no intention to change the regimen within 8 weeks following
study entry; as study-specific (antiretroviral-based) strata fill, however, only
patients who are receiving the therapies eligible for the remaining open strata will
be accrued

- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document

- Subjects must in the opinion of the investigator be capable of complying with this
protocol

administer via nasogastric [NG]-tube)

- The subject has a corrected QT interval calculated by the Fridericia formula (QTcF) >
500 ms within 28 days before randomization; note: If initial QTcF is found to be >

should be performed; if the average of these three consecutive results for QTcF is =<
500 ms, the subject meets eligibility in this regard

- History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic
composition to cabozantinib (XL184)

- Pregnant women are excluded from this study because cabozantinib (XL184) is a
tyrosine kinase inhibitor with the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient
effects; because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing
infants secondary to treatment of the mother with cabozantinib, breastfeeding should
be discontinued if the mother is treated with cabozantinib
