Study Description

This phase III trial studies if selumetinib works just as well as the standard treatment with carboplatin/vincristine (CV) for subjects with NF1-associated low grade glioma (LGG), and to see if selumetinib is better than CV in improving vision in subjects with LGG of the optic pathway (vision nerves). Selumetinib is a drug that works by blocking some enzymes that low-grade glioma tumor cells need for their growth. This results in killing tumor cells. Drugs used as chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and vincristine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether selumetinib works better in treating patients with NF1-associated low-grade glioma compared to standard therapy with carboplatin and vincristine.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine whether the efficacy of treatment with selumetinib sulfate (selumetinib) as measured by event-free survival (EFS) is non-inferior to treatment with carboplatin/vincristine sulfate (vincristine) (CV) in previously untreated neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1)-associated low-grade glioma (LGG).

II. To determine whether visual acuity (VA) using Teller acuity cards (TAC), in patients with NF1-associated LGG within the optic pathway, is better in those treated with selumetinib compared to CV.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate tumor response rates and overall survival (OS) in each treatment regimen in previously untreated NF1-associated LGG.

II. To evaluate VA outcomes utilizing HOTV letter acuity testing in previously untreated NF1-associated LGG within the optic pathway in patients who are old enough to perform visual acuity testing utilizing HOTV (a recognition acuity measure).

III. To describe the improvement in motor function as measured by the Vineland scale in patients with previously untreated NF1-associated LGG that have documented motor deficits at enrollment.

IV. To prospectively evaluate and compare the quality of life among patients treated with selumetinib or CV.

V. To prospectively evaluate and compare the cognitive, social, emotional, and behavioral functioning of patients with NF1-associated LGG treated with either selumetinib or CV.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate optical coherence tomography (OCT) measures of retinal axon and ganglion cell thickness as a marker of treatment response in previously untreated NF1-associated LGG within the optic pathway.

II. To compare novel, semi-automated volumetric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measures to traditional measurements of treatment response (bi-dimensional MRI measurements) in NF1-associated optic pathway tumors.

III. To obtain paired blood and tumor tissue to be banked for future NF1-LGG biology studies involving comprehensive molecular analysis, including but not limited to whole exome and ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing.

• Any other serious intercurrent illness, life threatening condition, organ system dysfunction, or medical condition judged by the local investigator to compromise the subject's safety, interfere with the absorption or metabolism of selinexor tablets, or preclude safe administration of the planned protocol treatment or required follow-up, including (for example):
  • active, uncontrolled bacterial, fungal, or viral infection;
  • clinically significant cardiac dysfunction or cardiovascular disease.
• Pregnant or lactating females, or women of childbearing potential not willing to use an adequate method of birth control for the duration of the study.
• Patients are not eligible if they have a known hypersensitivity to the study drugs or their components.

Study Description

This is a Phase 1b/2, multi-center, open label umbrella study of patients ≥12 years of age with recurrent or progressive solid (including CNS) tumors with alterations in the key proteins of the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway, referred to as the MAPK pathway. Study DAY101-102 (master study) and sub-studies will consist of a screening period, a treatment period, a safety follow-up period, and a long-term follow-up period where survival, status and subsequent anticancer therapies are collected.

DAY101 will be evaluated alone (sub-study A) or combined with a different targeted therapy (sub-study B) in each sub-study. The Phase 1b part of each sub-study will evaluate the safety of the combination and select the dose for the Phase 2 part. The Phase 2 part of each sub-study will evaluate anti-tumor activity.

Inclusion Criteria

• Signed assent for patients ≥ 12 up to < 18 years of age
• Patients must have a histologically confirmed diagnosis of non-hematological tumor with concurrent MAPK pathway alteration as assessed by sequencing, PCR, FISH, or another clinically accepted molecular diagnostic method recognized by local laboratory or regulatory agency
• Patients must have radiographically-recurrent or radiographically-progressive disease that is measurable using the appropriate tumor response criteria (e.g. RECIST version 1.1)
• Archival tumor tissue (preferably less than 3 years old) or fresh tumor tissue for correlative studies is required
• If brain metastases are present, they must have been previously treated and be stable as assessed by radiographic imaging

Other inclusion criteria may apply

Exclusion Criteria

• Known presence of concurrent activating mutation
• Patients with current evidence or a history of central serous retinopathy (CSR), retinal vein occlusion (RVO)

Substudy A-specific exclusion criterion:

• Prior therapy of any RAS- RAF-, MEK-, or ERK-directed inhibitor therapy

Substudy B-specific exclusion criterion:

• Prior receipt of any Type-II pan-RAF inhibitor therapy (e.g., LXH254/naporafenib, BGB- 283, BGB-3245, belvarafenib)

Other exclusion criteria may apply

Study Description

This is an open-label, multicenter study to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy of RO7428731 administered as a monotherapy in participants with newly diagnosed or recurrent epidermal growth factor receptor variant III (EGFRvIII)-positive glioblastoma (GBM).

Experimental: Part I: Dose Escalation

Participants with newly diagnosed GBM will receive RO7428731, intravenously (IV), up to one year or until disease progression, withdrawal of consent, unacceptable toxicity, or death, whichever occurs first.

Experimental: Part II: Dose-Expansion(s)

Participants with newly diagnosed GBM will receive RO7428731, IV, in maximum of two dose expansion cohorts at a dose(s) not exceeding the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) established in Part I.

Experimental: Part III: Safety Run-in

Participants with recurrent GBM will receive RO7428731, IV in a dosing schedule determined in Part I. At the end of the Safety Run-in period, a decision will be made as to whether to open the Dose-Expansion Cohort Part IVA or open a second Safety Run-in Cohort at a lower dose.

Experimental: Part IV A: Dose-Expansions Cohort

Participants with recurrent GBM will receive RO7428731, IV at specified doses and dosing schedules.

Inclusion Criteria

Inclusion criteria for all participants:

• Life expectancy of greater than or equal to 12 weeks, in the opinion of the Investigator
• Diagnosis of GBM based on World Health Organization (WHO) classification of central nervous system (CNS) tumors, 5th edition
• Participants must have confirmed EGFRvIII-expression
• Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) Score of >=70%
• Adequate organ functions prior to start of study treatment
• Willingness to abide by contraceptive measures for the duration of the study.

Inclusion criteria for Part I and Part II only:

• Participants whose tumors have an unmethylated (Part I and Part II) or methylated (Part I only) O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promotor status based on local assessment
• Participants (in Part I): Adult participants with newly diagnosed EGFRvIII-positive GBM with unmethylated MGMT promotor status who have completed standard of care therapy with surgical resection and adjuvant radiotherapy with or without concomitant temozolomide. Participants are allowed to have received any number of cycles of temozolomide maintenance. Adult participants with newly diagnosed EGFRvIII-positive GBM with methylated MGMT promotor status who have completed standard of care with surgical resection and adjuvant radiotherapy with concomitant and maintenance temozolomide or discontinued temozolomide maintenance due to reasons other than progressive disease.
• Participants (in Part II): Adult participants with newly diagnosed EGFRvIII-positive GBM with unmethylated MGMT promotor status who have completed standard of care therapy with surgical resection and adjuvant radiotherapy with or without concomitant temozolomide.

Inclusion criteria for Part III and Part IV A only:

• Documented first or second recurrence of GBM
• At least one measurable GBM lesion as per Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria prior to initiation of study treatment.

Exclusion Criteria

Exclusion criteria for all participants:

• Participants with infratentorial tumors and tumors primarily located in or close to critical structures (e.g., brain stem)
• Presence of extracranial metastatic or leptomeningeal disease
• Known hypersensitivity to immunoglobulins or to any other component of the investigational medicinal product formulation
• Active bleeding or pathological condition that carries a high risk of bleeding, including inherited and acquired coagulopathies
• Participants unable to undergo an MRI with contrast.

Exclusion criteria for Part I and Part II only:

• Recurrent malignant gliomas
• Any prior anti-tumor treatment for GBM: tumor resection, adjuvant radiotherapy with or without concomitant temozolomide and temozolomide maintenance (Part I only) must be the only tumor-directed treatment that the participant has received for GBM.

Exclusion criteria for Part III and Part IV A only:

• More than two recurrences of GBM
• Prior anti-EGFRvIII-targeting agents (including vaccines), anti-angiogenic therapy, and/or gene therapy for the treatment of GBM and gliomas.
