A Phase 1 Dose Escalation Study of ARQ 621 in Adult Patients With Metastatic Solid Tumors and Hematologic Malignancies


This is an open-label, dose escalation study of intravenous ARQ 621 administered to patients
with late-stage solid tumors or hematologic malignancies.


The study is designed to explore the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of ARQ 621
and define a recommended phase 2 (RP2D)dose of ARQ 621.Treatment will be initiated at a dose
level of 10 mg/m^2 IV infusion for an hour once weekly in 4-week (28 day) consecutive and
continuous cycles. ARQ 621 should be infused IV over two hours at doses 200 mg/m^2 and
higher (cohort 8 and above). All cycles of therapy will consist of the patient taking ARQ
621 intravenously once weekly for 4 weeks. Dose escalation will proceed initially by
doubling (cohorts 2 and 3) and subsequently by a modified Fibonacci scheme. Dose
escalations will be performed using 3-6 patient cohorts. In these cohorts, if a single dose
limiting toxicity (DLT) is experienced among patients 1-3, the dose cohort will be expanded
to six patients. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be defined as the dose level at
which no greater than 1/6 patients experiences a DLT. Once an MTD is identified, up to an
additional 20 patients (with types of malignancy to be determined at a later date by study
investigator and clarified by study amendment) may be treated at this MTD of ARQ 621. If an
MTD is not identified in the initial 10 dosing cohorts, dose escalation will proceed in a
manner to be defined by subsequent amendment with the purpose of determining a RP2D of ARQ
621.
