Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine a well-tolerated dose of Carfilzomib in combination with Irinotecan (Phase 1b portion of the study) in subjects with relapsed small and non-small cell lung cancer or other irinotecan-sensitive cancers and to assess the 6 month survival of relapsed small cell lung cancer patients treated with this combination therapy. **The Phase 1b portion of the study is now complete**. Phase 2 portion of the study. The safest, maximally tolerated dose established as established in Phase 1 for Phase 2 is as follows -- Carfilzomib will be provided at 20/36 mg/m^2 with Irinotecan dosed at 125 mg/m^2. The purpose of the Phase 2 portion of the study is to assess 6 month survival of relapsed small cell lung cancer ins subjects treated with this combination therapy.

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Phase Ib Cohort 2: 20/36 mg/m^2 Carfilzomib, 125 mg/m^2 IrinotecanExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Cohort 2 of Phase Ib run-in to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Carfilzomib (Day 1,2,8,9, 15, and 16) in combination with Irinotecan (Days 1, 8, 15) in subjects with relapsed small and non-small cell lung cancer or other irinotecan-sensitive cancers. Cohort 2 used a starting dose of 20/36 mg/m^2 of carfilzomib in combination with 125 mg/m^2 of irinotecan.
Group II: Phase Ib Cohort 1: 20/45 mg/m^2 Carfilzomib, 125 mg/m^2 IrinotecanExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Cohort 3 of Phase Ib run-in to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Carfilzomib (Day 1,2,8,9, 15, and 16) in combination with Irinotecan (Days 1, 8, 15) in subjects with relapsed small and non-small cell lung cancer or other irinotecan-sensitive cancers. Cohort 3 used a starting dose of 20/45 mg/m^2 of carfilzomib in combination with 125 mg/m^2 of irinotecan.
Group III: Phase Ib Cohort 1: 20/27 mg/m^2 Carfilzomib, 125 mg/m^2 IrinotecanExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Cohort 1 of Phase Ib run-in to determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of Carfilzomib (Day 1,2,8,9, 15, and 16) in combination with Irinotecan (Days 1, 8, 15) in subjects with relapsed small and non-small cell lung cancer or other irinotecan-sensitive cancers. Cohort 1 used a starting dose of 20/27 mg/m^2 of carfilzomib in combination with 125 mg/m^2 of irinotecan.
Group IV: Phase IIExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Phase II: Stratified, single arm trial using a starting dose of 20/36 mg/m^2 of carfilzomib and 125 mg/m^2 of irinotecan, in small cell lung cancer patients who have relapsed on a prior platinum regimen. Stratification for phase II component: Platinum sensitive disease: initial response to platinum-based chemotherapy with progression > 90 days after last treatment. Platinum refractory disease: No response to platinum-based chemotherapy or progression within 90 days of completing platinum-based therapy. Subjects that progressed during or within one month of completion of platinum-based chemotherapy will be excluded.
