Brief Summary:
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of IACS-6274 with or without bevacizumab and paclitaxel in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body (advanced). IACS-6274 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bevacizumab is in a class of medications called antiangiogenic agents. It works by stopping the formation of blood vessels that bring oxygen and nutrients to tumor. This may slow the growth and spread of tumor. Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called antimicrotubule agents. It stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Giving IACS-6274 with or without bevacizumab and paclitaxel may help to control the disease.

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess the safety and tolerability of oral glutaminase inhibitor IPN60090 (IACS-6274) as monotherapy (Part A) and in combination therapy with bevacizumab and weekly paclitaxel (Part B).

II. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of IACS-6274 in combination with bevacizumab and weekly paclitaxel (Part B). (For Dose Escalation Only)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess the preliminary antitumor activity of IACS-6274 as monotherapy (Part A) in patients with or without biomarker selected tumor types.

II. To assess the preliminary antitumor activity of IACS-6274 in the combination with bevacizumab and weekly paclitaxel (Part B) in patients with recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

III. To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) profile of IACS-6274 as a monotherapy (Part A) and in combination with bevacizumab and weekly paclitaxel (Part B). To evaluate biomarkers of patient stratification and correlate them with clinical outcome.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:

I. To collect biobank samples for potential future analysis of biomarkers (optional, informed consent required).
