Phase I Study of Tumor Treating Fields (TTF) in Combination With Cabozantinib or With Pembrolizumab and Nab-Paclitaxel in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors Involving the Abdomen or Thorax
Sponsor:

M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

Brief Summary:

This phase Ib trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of tumor treating fields therapy in combination with either cabozantinib or nab-paclitaxel and atezolizumab in treating patients with solid tumors involving the abdomen or thorax that have spread to other parts of the body (advanced). Tumor treating fields therapy on this study utilizes NovoTTF systems that are wearable devices that use electrical fields at different frequencies that may help stop the growth of tumor cells by interrupting cancer cells' ability to divide. Cabozantinib is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking the action of an abnormal protein that signals tumor cells to multiply. This helps slow or stop the spread of tumor cells. Chemotherapy drugs, such as nab-paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving tumor treating fields therapy in combination with either cabozantinib, or with nab-paclitaxel and atezolizumab may help control advanced solid tumors involving the abdomen or thorax.

PHASE1

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To assess the safety and tolerability of TTF, including the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), in combination with cabozantinib (Cohort 1) with nab-paclitaxel and pembrolizumab (Cohort 2) in patients with advanced solid tumors involving the abdomen or thorax to the 4 prespecified tumor types. SECONDARY OBJECTIVE: I. To assess the objective response rate, progression-free survival and overall survival of TTF in combination with cabozantinib (Cohort 1) with nab-paclitaxel and pembrolizumab (Cohort 2) in patients with advanced solid tumors involving the abdomen or thorax to the 4 prespecified tumor types. OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 cohorts. COHORT 1: Patients receive TTF continuously for at least 18 hours per day on days 1-21 of each cycle. Patients also receive cabozantinib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. COHORT 2: Patients receive TTF continuously for at least 18 hours per day on days 1-28 of each cycle. Patients also receive nab-paclitaxel intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle and atezolizumab IV over 30-60 minutes on days 1 and 15 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 6 weeks.
