Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ivosidenib in combination with nivolumab and ipilimumab and determine the recommended combination dose (RCD) of ivosidenib, nivolumab, and ipilimumab.

Participation eligibility

Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.

Inclusion Criteria:

Demographic Characteristics

  • Male or female participant age ≥ 18 years old.

General Criteria

  • Estimated life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks. 3. ECOG performance status ≤ 1.

Sex and Contraceptive/Barrier Requirements

  • Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must agree to abstain from sexual intercourse or to use 2 highly effective (Appendix 7) forms of contraception, at least one of which must be a barrier method, from the time of giving informed consent throughout the study, and for 5 months after the last dose of study treatment. Ivosidenib, nivolumab, and ipilimumab may have adverse effects on a fetus in utero. Furthermore, it is not known if nivolumab and ipilimumab have transient adverse effects on the composition of sperm. Subjects should be informed that taking the study medication may involve unknown risks to the fetus (unborn baby) if pregnancy were to occur during the study. Egg donation (ova, oocytes), for the purpose of reproduction, will not be allowed during the study and for 5 months after the last dose of study treatment:
    • Male subjects with WOCBP partners must use a condom during the study and until at least 3 months after the last dose of study treatment. In addition, contraception should be considered for their female partners. Contraceptive measures do not apply if the subject is sterile, vasectomized, or sexually abstinent. Sperm donation from male subjects will not be allowed during the study and for 3 months after the last dose of study treatment. Note: Please refer to Appendix 7 for further contraception considerations.

Informed Consent

  • Obtained prior to any study-specific procedure as described in Section 13.3 of the protocol.

Medical and Therapeutic Criteria

    • Platelet count ≥ 100 x 10^9 /L.
  • Adequate coagulation function as defined by International Normalization Ratio (INR), or Prothrombin Time (PT) or Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (aPTT) ≤ 1.5 ULN; Any subject receiving anticoagulant therapy should have coagulation factors monitored closely throughout the study. Subjects receiving a factor Xa inhibitor who have abnormal PT/ partial thromboplastin time (PTT) may be eligible after discussion with the Sponsor.
  • Adequate renal function defined as: Serum creatinine < 1.5 x ULN, unless creatinine clearance ≥ 40 mL/min (measured or calculated using the Cockcroft-Gault formula).
  • Adequate hepatic function, defined as:
    • Total serum bilirubin and direct bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN (total serum bilirubin ≤ 3.0 x ULN for confirmed Gilbert disease);
    • Aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase ≤ 5 x ULN;
    • Serum albumin ≥ 2.8 g/dL.

Exclusion Criteria

General Criteria

  • Inability to swallow oral medication.
  • Pregnant and lactating women.
  • WOCBP who tested positive in a serum pregnancy test within 24 hours prior to the first day of IMP administration. An extension up to 72 hours prior to the start of study treatment is permissible in situations where the results cannot be obtained within the standard 24-hour window.
  • Unlikely to cooperate in the study.
  • Participation in another interventional study at the same time or within 2 weeks prior to the first IMP administration. Participation in non-interventional registries or epidemiological studies is allowed. In addition, the first dose of ivosidenib should not occur before a period greater than or equal to 5 half-lives or 28 days, whichever is shorter, of the last dose of the investigational molecule.

Subjects with bundle branch block and prolonged QTcF should be reviewed by the Sponsor for potential inclusion.
  • History of motor neuropathy considered to be of autoimmune origin (e.g., Guillain-Barre syndrome, myasthenia gravis).
  • Known immunodeficiency or HIV, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C infection. Antibody to hepatitis B or C without evidence of active infection may be allowed. Subjects with chronic hepatitis B virus that is adequately controlled per institutional guideline will be permitted.
  • Severe or uncontrolled active acute or chronic infection.
  • Have known symptomatic brain metastases requiring steroids. Subjects with previously diagnosed brain metastases are eligible if they have completed their treatment and have recovered from the acute effects of radiation therapy or surgery prior to study entry, have discontinued corticosteroid treatment for these metastases for at least 4 weeks, and have radiographically stable disease for at least 3 months prior to study entry:
    • Note: Up to 10 mg per day of prednisone equivalent will be allowed.
  • Subjects who have received systemic anti-cancer treatment or palliative radiotherapy to bone metastases or other non-liver lesions less than 2 weeks before the first dose of ivosidenib. Arterial therapies and radiation to liver lesions less than 4 weeks before the first dose of ivosidenib.
