Part 1 (Completed Enrollment) - The purpose of the first part of the study was to evaluate the safety of different doses and dosing regimens of oral rucaparib administered daily to patients with solid tumors.

Part 2A (Completed Enrollment) and Part 2B (Completed Enrollment) - The purpose of the second part of the study is to determine the safety and clinical activity of the RP2D of oral rucaparib administered daily to patients with a known deleterious BRCA mutation (germline or somatic).

Part 3 (Completed Enrollment) - The purpose of the third part of the study is to further evaluate PK of higher dose strength tablets at the RP2D in patients with any advanced solid tumor, inclusive of lymphoma, with evidence of a BRCA mutation (germline or somatic).
Rucaparib (CO-338; formerly known as PF 01367338 and AG 14699) is an orally available, small molecule inhibitor of poly-adenosine diphosphate [ADP] ribose polymerase (PARP) being developed for treatment of ovarian cancer associated with homologous recombination [HR] DNA repair deficiency (HRD). The safety and efficacy of rucaparib has been evaluated in several Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies.

An oral formulation is the focus of current development efforts. Rucaparib is currently being investigated as monotherapy in patients with cancer associated with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations. For this study, it is anticipated that rucaparib will promote cell death in the BRCA-deficient tumor cells of ovarian cancer patients with evidence of a germline mutation, thereby limiting tumor progression and providing therapeutic benefit.

Drug Rucaparib

Oral tablets administered daily with 8 oz (240 mL) of water on an empty stomach or with food; 21-day cycles of treatment. In Part 1, the initial dose level is 40 mg/day (once a day); doses and dosing frequency(e.g. twice a day or three times a day) will be adjusted until Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) are established. Patients enrolled in Part 2 and Part 3 will receive the RP2D for continuous 21-day treatment cycles until disease progression.

  • Other names: CO-338; PF 01367338, AG 14699

Part 1 (Phase 1) Experimental

Rucaparib 40, 80, 160, 300, 500 mg QD and 240, 360, 480, 600, 840 mg BID, for continuous 21-day cycles. Patients in Part 1 were initially treated in a Dose-escalation Evaluation Period (Cycle 1) and could then continue to receive treatment in an optional Treatment-extension Period (Cycle 2 and beyond).

Part 2A (Phase 2) Experimental

Rucaparib 600 mg BID for 21-day cycles.

Part 2B (Phase 2) Experimental

Rucaparib 600 mg BID for 21-day cycles.

Part 3 (Phase 2) Experimental

Rucaparib 600 mg BID for 21-day cycles. Patients also received a single administration of 600 mg rucaparib on both Day -7 and Day 1 for assessing the effect of food on PK.

Criteria

The following eligibility criteria below pertain to patients enrolling into Part 2B of the study.

Inclusion Criteria:

Progression-free Survival (PFS) According to RECIST v1.1, as Assessed by the Investigator (Part 2)

Duration of Response Per RECIST Version 1.1 (Part 2)

Duration of response (DOR) for any confirmed RECIST CR or PR measured from the date of the first occurrence of a response until the first occurrence of PD per RECIST. For patients who continued treatment post-progression, the first date of progression was used for the analysis.

Food Effect on PK of Rucaparib - Cmax (Part 1 and Part 3)

Cmax = maximum concentration following administration of rucaparib. The effect of food on rucaparib PK parameters was assessed over a 24-hour period in blood samples from a subset of patients. Patients were given a single dose of 40 mg or 300 mg rucaparib (Part 1), or 600 mg rucaparib (Part 3) and were randomized to one of two sequences where they were either Fed (with a high-fat meal) or Fasted (without a high-fat meal) on Day -7 or Cycle 1 Day 1. On each day, patients underwent blood sampling for PK at the specified time points. The median Fed and Fasted Cmax values were calculated for each arm.

QTcF Value Change From Baseline (Part 1)

QTcF value change from baseline by daily dose corrected using Fridericia's method (QTcF). To evaluate the effects of rucaparib on the QT (interval from Q wave to T wave)/QTc (interval corrected for heart rate) interval, all patients underwent serial ECG monitoring at Screening, on Cycle 1 Day -1, Cycle 1 Day 1, Cycle 1 Day 15, Cycle 1 Day 22, on Day 1 of all subsequent cycles, at the EOT Visit, and as clinically indicated. Worst post-baseline QTcF value was used to categorize each patient.
