Brief Summary:
Patients with inoperable endometrial cancer have limited treatment options. PD-L1 expression is common in endometrial cancers and RT induces tumor and systemic changes that induce the immune system. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate anti-PD-1/PD-L1 axis therapy in conjunction of standard of care RT for patients with inoperable endometrial cancer in order to establish the safety and efficacy of inducing an anti-tumor immune response.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Endometrial Cancer Cancer of the Endometrium Drug: TSR-042 Radiation: Brachytherapy Procedure: Endometrial biopsy Procedure: Blood draw for immune response Phase 1

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 12 participants
Allocation: N/A
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: A Phase I Study of PD-1 Inhibition With TSR-042 in Addition to Standard of Care Definitive Radiation for Inoperable Endometrial Cancer
Actual Study Start Date : October 15, 2019
Estimated Primary Completion Date : September 30, 2025
Estimated Study Completion Date : July 31, 2026

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: TSR-042 and Brachytherapy
  • Patients will receive four doses of TSR-042. The first dose is given 21 days prior to the first planned brachytherapy fraction. The second dose is given 21 (+3) days later, corresponding to the time of brachytherapy fraction #1. The third dose is given 21 (+3) days after dose 2, corresponding to the time of brachytherapy fraction #4. The fourth dose is given 21 (+3) days after dose corresponding to 1 weeks after brachytherapy fraction #6.
  • Brachytherapy will consist of 6 weekly fractions of 6 Gy per fraction (total 36Gy)
Drug: TSR-042
-TSR-042 is administered intravenously via a 30-minute (-5-minute/+15-minute infusion window allowed) infusion

Radiation: Brachytherapy
-This trial will include image-guided brachytherapy with three-dimensional (3-D) treatment planning and in cases where pelvic radiation is deemed appropriate by the treating radiation oncologist, external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) using intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) technique.

Procedure: Endometrial biopsy
-Prior to the start of treatment with TSR-042. If this biopsy yields insufficient tumor tissue, an archival sample may be requested, with Fraction 1 of brachytherapy, with Fraction 4 of brachytherapy

Procedure: Blood draw for immune response
-Prior to the start of any treatment, at the time of brachytherapy fractions 1 and 4 (corresponding to endometrial biopsy), prior to fourth dose of TSR-042, 6 weeks after the completion of all protocol related therapy




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Safety and tolerability of the regimen as measured by the grade of toxicities experienced as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 [ Time Frame: 6 weeks ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression-free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: 2 years ]
    PFS is defined as the time from last TSR-042 administration to disease progression or death. Response and progression will be evaluated in this study in a qualitative fashion by symptoms (such as bleeding, abdominal or pelvic pain, changes of bowel or bladder habits lasting more than two weeks), clinical exam and/or evidence of disease on imaging by RECIST 1.1 as not all patients will have measurable disease at baseline on imaging. Persistent/recurrent clinical disease will be confirmed by biopsy whenever possible.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Newly diagnosed biopsy proven The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) clinical stage I or II endometrial carcinoma.
  • Histology of FIGO grade 1-3 endometrioid endometrial carcinoma.
  • Medically inoperable per treating gynecologic oncologist.
  • Candidate for definitive radiation therapy as determined by treating radiation oncologist.
  • At least 18 years of age.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2
  • Participant must have adequate organ function, defined as follows:

    • Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1,500/µL
    • Platelets ≥ 100,000/µL
    • Hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL; transfusion is allowed to meet this criterion
    • Serum creatinine ≤ 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) or calculated creatinine clearance 60mL/min using the Cockcroft-Gault equation
    • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN (≤2.0 in patients with known Gilberts syndrome) OR direct bilirubin ≤ 1 x ULN
    • Aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase ≤ 2.5 x ULN unless liver metastases are present, in which case they must be ≤ 5 x ULN
    • International normalized ratio (INR) or prothrombin time (PT) ≤1.5× ULN unless patient is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT or partial thromboplastin (PTT) is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants. Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) ≤1.5× ULN unless patient is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT or PTT is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants
  • Participant receiving corticosteroids may continue as long as their dose is stable for at least 4 weeks prior to initiating protocol therapy.
  • Participant must agree to not donate blood during the study or for 90 days after the last dose of study treatment.
  • Female participant has a negative serum pregnancy test the day of and prior to taking study treatment if of childbearing potential and agrees to abstain from activities that could result in pregnancy from screening through 180 days after the last dose of study treatment, or is of non-childbearing potential. Non-childbearing potential is defined as follows (by other than medical reasons):

    *≥45 years of age and has not had menses for >1 year

    • Patients who have been amenorrhoeic for <2 years without history of a hysterectomy and oophorectomy must have a follicle stimulating hormone value in the postmenopausal range upon screening evaluation.
    • Post-bilateral oophorectomy, or post-tubal ligation. Documented oophorectomy must be confirmed with medical records of the actual procedure or confirmed by an ultrasound. Tubal ligation must be confirmed with medical records of the actual procedure, otherwise the patient must be willing to use 2 adequate barrier methods throughout the study, starting with the screening visit through 180 days after the last dose of study treatment. See Section 4.4 for a list of acceptable birth control methods. Information must be captured appropriately within the site's source documents.
