Study arms

  • Experimental
    LCL161

    Dose escalation part: Eligible patients will start to receive oral LCL161 once a week and will receive weekly paclitaxel, at 80 mg/m2 intravenous infusion over 1 hour, in combination with LCL161 from cycle 2. Dose expansion part: Eligible patients will receive oral LCL161 at the maximum tolerated dose and/or recommended dose in combination with weekly paclitaxel, at 80 mg/m2 intravenous infusion over 1 hour from cycle 1.

    Drug: LCL161 · Drug: Paclitaxel

Interventions

  • DrugLCL161

    Patients will receive oral LCL161 once a week until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression and/or withdrawal of consent.

  • DrugPaclitaxel

    Patients will receive weekly paclitaxel as intravenous infusion over 1 hour in combination with LCL161, from cycle 2 in dose escalation part or from the first cycle in dose expansion part, and will continue it until unacceptable toxicity, disease progression and/or withdrawal of consent.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Frequency of dose limiting toxicities as a function of LCL161 during first cycle

    Time frame: First cycle (21 days)

  2. Adverse events of oral LCL161

    Type and frequency of adverse events of oral LCL161 when administered in combination with weekly paclitaxel

    Time frame: From informed consent until 28 days after end of treatment (end of treatment visit occurs within 7 days after the determination of study discontinuation)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Adverse events of oral LCL161

    Type and frequency of adverse events of oral LCL161

    Time frame: From informed consent until 28 days after end of treatment (end of treatment visit occurs within 7 days after the determination of study discontinuation)

  2. LCL161 plasma concentration and derived pharmacokinetic parameters

    Time frame: From first cycle and up to 3 cycle (each cycle is 21-day period)

  3. Paclitaxel plasma concentration and derived pharmacokinetic parameters

    Time frame: From first cycle of combination and up to 2 cycle (each cycle is 21-day period)

  4. Tumor response according to RECIST 1.1

    Time frame: Every 2 cycles for first 8 cycles, then every 3 cycles and until end of treatment (each cycle is 21-day period and end of treatment visit occurs within 7 days after the determination of study discontinuation)
