MC# 19-37 - Subprotocol L: A Phase 1b Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of Sotorasib in Combination with BI 1701963 in Subjects with Advanced Solid Tumors with KRAS p.G12C Mutation
-
Agent(s): Sotorasib & BI 1701963
-
Disease Type(s): Colorectal, Solid Tumor, Lung-NSCLC
-
Phase(s): I
-
Drug Classification(s): Small Molecule, Targeted Therapy
-
Molecular Target(s): KRAS G12C
Mechanism of Action
Sotorasib selectively targets the KRAS p.G12C mutant, and prevents expression of and/or tumor cell signaling through the KRAS p.G12C mutant. This inhibits growth in KRAS p.G12C-expressing tumor cells. The KRAS p.G12C mutation is seen in some tumor cell types and plays a key role in tumor cell proliferation.
BI 1701963 selectively targets and binds to SOS1, preventing the interaction of SOS1 with KRAS. This prevents activation of downstream RAF/MEK/ERK signaling pathway by GTP-loaded KRAS. This inhibits mutant KRAS-dependent signaling and may inhibit growth and survival of KRASexpressing tumor cells.
Purpose
In this study, the sponsor and investigators want to learn:
- How much of sotorasib can be given with an acceptable level of side effects alone and in combination with BI 1701963
- The effects of sotorasib (good and bad) alone and in combination with BI 1701963
- How much of sotorasib is absorbed into the blood and how fast it is removed
Inclusion Criteria
- Subject has provided informed consent prior to initiation of any study specific activities/procedures
- Male and female subjects age ≥ 18 years old
- Pathologically documented, locally advanced or metastatic malignancy, with KRAS p.G12C mutation identified through molecular testing, who are intolerant or ineligible, to available therapies known to provide clinical benefit:
- For NSCLC, subjects must have received anti-PD-1 or anti-PD (L)-1 therapy (unless contraindicated) and/or platinum-based combination chemotherapy and targeted therapy (if actionable oncogenic driver mutations were identified [eg, EGFR, ALK, and ROS1]). Prior neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy or chemoradiation will be considered for eligibility only if the subject progressed on or within 6 months of completing the therapy. KRAS p.G12C mutation must be identified by an approved diagnostic device for detection of KRAS p.G12C in NSCLC. In the United States, this test must be performed in a local Clinical Laboratory Improv ement Amendments certified laboratory.
- For CRC, all subjects must have received at least 1 prior systemic regimen of therapy for advanced or metastatic CRC including fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin, and irinotecan-based regimens. In addition, subjects with tumors that are MSI-H must have received treatment with either nivolumab or pembrolizumab if they were clinically able to receive checkpoint inhibitors and 1 of these agents is approved for that indication in the region or country
- For advanced solid tumor types other than NSCLC and CRC, subjects must have received at least 1 prior systemic therapy
- Subjects who have received prior KRAS p.G12C targeted therapy must have progressed
- Subjects must be willing to undergo tumor biopsy before start of treatment, if medically feasible, unless a sample is available within 3 months of enrollment without intervening treatment. If a tumor biopsy prior to treatment is not medically feasible and recent sample is not available, or if the biopsy sample has insufficient tissue for testing, subjects must be willing to provide archived tumor tissue samples (FFPE sample) collected within the past 3 years, if available. Subjects who do not have archived tissue available can be allowed to enroll without undergoing tumor biopsy upon agreement with investigator and the Medical Monitor if a tumor biopsy is not feasible.

Subjects who have had brain metastases resected or have received whole brain radiation therapy ending at least 4 weeks (or stereotactic radiosurgery ending at least 2 weeks) prior to study day 1 are eligible if they meet all of the following criteria: a) residual neurological symptoms grade ≤ 2; and, b) on stable or decreasing doses of dexamethasone, if applicable. In addition, if treatment was completed > 4 weeks prior to study entry MRI performed within 4 weeks prior to study entry must show no new or enlarging lesions appearing.
- History or presence of hematological malignancies unless curatively treated with no evidence of disease ≥ 2 years. Note: indolent malignancies that do not currently require treatment are allowed.
