Study Summary

This trial studies the safety and effectiveness of a drug to treat brain tumors and brain metastases. It has 3 phases and will assess safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with specific brain cancers (Astrocytoma IDH-mutant, Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype) or uncontrolled brain metastasis from solid tumors. Participants must have completed prior treatments and be on stable steroids. They should understand the study and consent to join. Those recently treated with certain drugs or therapies may need to wait before joining.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
NEO212 Oral Capsule is being tested in patients with certain types of brain cancer and those with uncontrolled brain metastasis alongside standard-of-care treatments. The trial will assess safety, how the body processes the drug, and its effectiveness across three phases: dose escalation (Phase 1), initial efficacy testing (Phase 2a), and expanded efficacy evaluation (Phase 2b).See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not explicitly listed here, side effects likely include reactions related to NEO212's components or similar chemotherapy agents such as fatigue, nausea, hair loss, blood cell count changes leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, nerve damage causing numbness or tingling sensations.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Phase 1: Determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of NEO212
Phase 1: Identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of NEO212
Phase 1: safety and tolerability of increasing dose levels of orally administered NEO212 alone in patients with Astrocytoma IDH-mutant, Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype or patients with select solid tumors with uncontrolled metastases to the brain

Trial Design

8Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Phase 2b efficacy - NEO212 for Astrocytoma IDH-mutant and Glioblastoma IDH-wildtypeExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients receiving NEO212 alone for treatment of Astrocytoma IDH-mutant and Glioblastoma IDH-wildtype. NEO212 - Starting one dose level under RP2D administered orally on days 1 - 5 of a 28-day treatment cycle, escalated to RP2D per Protocol dose escalation rules.
Group II: Phase 2b efficacy - NEO212 & SOC for Uncontrolled Metastases to the BrainExperimental Treatment9 Interventions
Patients receiving NEO212 in combination with select standard of care treatments for treatment of uncontrolled metastases to the brain. NEO212 - Starting one dose level under RP2D administered orally on days 1 - 5 of a 28-day treatment cycle, escalated to RP2D per Protocol dose escalation rules. SOC treatments established to be safe in Phase 2a of the study will be used in this arm of Phase 2b.
Group III: Phase 2a Safety Run-In - NEO212 and Stivarga (Regorafenib)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
- Colorectal cancer (CRC) with uncontrolled metastases to the brain who have been previously treated with fluoropyrimidine-, oxaliplatin- and irinotecan-based chemotherapy, an anti-VEGF therapy, and, if KRAS wild type, an anU-EGFR therapy. NEO212 - Starting one dose level under RP2D administered orally on days 1 - 5 of a 28-day treatment cycle, escalated to RP2D per Protocol dose escalation rules. Stivarga - 160 mg orally, once daily for the first 21 days of each 28-day cycle per package insert
Group IV: Phase 2a Safety Run-In - NEO212 and PembrolizumabExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
The following primary cancers with uncontrolled metrastases to the brain: Unresectable or metastatic melanoma. NSCLC expressing PD-L1, with no EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations. Metastatic NSCLC whose tumors express PD-L1. EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations must have disease progression. SCLC. Unresectable, recurrent HNSCC whose tumors express PD-L1. HNSCC on or after platinum-containing chemotherapy. Urothelial carcinoma whose tumors express PD-L1. Urothelial carcinoma. Microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR). Microsatellite Instability-high or Mismatch Repair Deficient Colorectal Cancer (CRC). Gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. Esophageal or gastroesophageal juncUon (GEJ). Cervical cancer. Merkel cell carcinoma. NEO212 - Same as Arm 1. Pembrolizumab - 200 mg administered every 3 weeks per package insert.
Group V: Phase 2a Safety Run-In - NEO212 and NivolumabExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
The following primary cancers with uncontrolled metrastases to the brain: Unresectable or metastatic melanoma. Metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. Advanced renal cell carcinoma. Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Urothelial carcinoma. Microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) colorectal cancer. Unresectable esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). NEO212 - Starting one dose level under RP2D administered orally on days 1 - 5 of a 28-day treatment cycle, escalated to RP2D per Protocol dose escalation rules. Nivolumab - 240 mg administered every 2 weeks per package insert
Group VI: Phase 2a Safety Run-In - NEO212 and IpilimumabExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
- Unresectable or metastatic melanoma with uncontrolled metastases to the brain. NEO212 - Starting one dose level under RP2D administered orally on days 1 - 5 of a 28-day treatment cycle, escalated to RP2D per Protocol dose escalation rules. Ipilimumab - 3 mg/kg administered IV over 90 minutes every 3 weeks for a maximum of 3 doses per package insert.
Group VII: Phase 2a Safety Run-In - NEO212 and FOLFIRI (Zaltrap) + Bevacizumab (Avastin)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
- Metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) with uncontrolled metastases to the brain, that is resistant to or has progressed following an oxaliplatin-containing regimen NEO212 - Starting one dose level under RP2D administered orally on days 1 - 5 of a 28-day treatment cycle, escalated to RP2D per Protocol dose escalation rules. FOLFIRI - 4 mg/kg aIV over 1 hour every 2 weeks. Bevacizumab - 10 mg/kg IV every 2 weeks.
Group VIII: Phase 2a Safety Run-In - NEO212 and CarbolaUn (ParaplaUn) + Paclitaxel (Taxol)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
- Colorectal cancer (CRC) with uncontrolled metastases to the brain. NEO212 - Starting one dose level under RP2D administered orally on days 1 - 5 of a 28-day treatment cycle, escalated to RP2D per Protocol dose escalation rules.
