3C-14-1: A Phase 2 Clinical Trial of Nivolumab and Nivolumab Plus Ipilimumab in Recurrent and Metastatic Microsatellite High (MSI-H) Colon Cancer
This is a Phase 2 open-label, multi-center, 2-stage Simon design stage trial of nivolumab (BMS-936558) monotherapy (mStage) or in combination with ipilimumab (cStage) to estimate the response rate in Metastatic Microsatellite MSI-High colon cancer. Ipilimumab is a fully humanized IgG1 monoclonal antibody binding to the anti-cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma-4 antigen (CTLA-4). Ipilimumab is an approved therapy for metastatic melanoma.Nivolumab (BMS-936558; anti-PD-1 mAb) is a fully human monoclonal immunoglobulin (Ig) G4 antibody that binds to the programmed death-1 (PD-1), a negative regulatory molecule expressed by immune cells.Primary Objective of the study is to evaluate the objective response rate (ORR) of nivolumab monotherapy or nivolumab combined with ipilimumab in subjects with metastatic MSI-H colon cancer.The study will also contain a safety cohort of subjects with non-MSI-H colon cancer to assess the safety and tolerability of nivolumab in combination with ipilimumab in subjects with non-MSI-H colon cancerBoth Arms N and N+I will follow a two-stage design to test whether nivolumab monotherapy or nivolumab combined with ipilimumab yields an objective response rate (ORR) that is of clinical interest in MSI-H metastatic colorectal cancer mCRC. On treatment stages that meet an ORR threshold will proceed from Stage 1 to Stage 2 (same for both m and cStage). The primary endpoint of this study ORR which is based on tumor assessments at baseline and then at 6 weeks from first dose and continue every 6 weeks for the first 24 weeks and every 12 weeks thereafter until disease progressionThe study will enroll 96 patients out of which 15 will be enrolled at USC

16M-14-1: Phase 1b/2, Multicenter, Open-label Study of Oprozomib and Dexamethasone in Patients with Relapsed and/or Refractory Multiple Myeloma
Multiple myeloma is a type of blood cancer caused by the transformation and uncontrolled multiplication of plasma cells (a type pf blood cell). It is the second most common hematological malignancy and is invariably fatal. Myeloma cells expand in the bone marrow causing skeletal destruction, high calcium levels, kidney failure and anemia. The study population will consist of multiple myeloma patients requiring therapy who have relapsed and/or are refractory to their last therapy and have been treated with at least 1, but not more than 5 lines of multiple myeloma therapy. The study drug, oprozomib works by preventing the breakdown of certain proteins in cells, causing the cells to die. Studies with oprozomib have been able to demonstrate the treatment potential for blocking proteasomes (protein complexes) in multiple myeloma. These proteasomes main function is to degrade unneeded or damaged proteins. The primary objective of Phase 2 is to estimate the overall response rate. This study is an open-label, Phase 1b/2, multicenter study in which participants will receive oprozomib administered orally, once daily, in combination with dexamethasone as follows: Days 1, 2, 8, and 9 of a 14-day cycle; Treatment will be administered in 14-day cycles until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or study treatment discontinuation for any reason. USC will only participate in Phase 2. The Phase 2 portion of this study will be initiated at the sponsors discretion using the recommended dose determined from 1 or both dosing schedules. The total study duration is expected to be approximately 26 months.
