Phase IB Study to Evaluate the Safety of Selinexor (KPT-330) in Combination With Multiple Standard Chemotherapy Agents in Patients With Advanced Malignancies

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of selinexor when given together
with several different standard chemotherapy regimens in treating patients with malignancies
that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with
treatment (advanced). Selinexor may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking enzymes
needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth
of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping
them from spreading. Studying selinexor with different standard chemotherapy regimens may
help doctors learn the side effects and best dose of selinexor that can be given with
different types of treatments in one study.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To establish the safety and tolerability of selinexor when given in combination with
standard chemotherapy regimens.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine disease control and progression free survival of selinexor administered with
standard chemotherapy treatments.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the correlation of translational biomarkers. II. To compare serial assessment
of mutation status in biopsies obtained at baseline and progression after clinical response
to combination therapy.

OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of selinexor. Patients are assigned to 1 of 13
treatment arms.

ARM A: Patients receive selinexor orally (PO) on days 1, 8, and 15 and carboplatin
intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 6 courses in
the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After 6 courses, patients can
continue single agent selinexor until disease progression. (ARM CLOSED)

ARM B: Patients receive selinexor PO twice weekly (e.g. Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday
or Wednesday/Friday or Thursday/Saturday or Friday/Sunday) on days 1-14. Patients then
receive selinexor PO on days 1, 3, 8 and 10 and paclitaxel IV over 3 hours on days 1 and 8.
Treatment repeats every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable
toxicity. After 8 courses of combination treatment, patients can continue single agent
selinexor until disease progression.

ARM C: Patients receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8, and 15 and eribulin mesylate IV over 1
hour on days 1 and 8. Combination treatment repeats every 21 days for 6 courses in the
absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After 6 courses, patients can
continue single agent selinexor until disease progression.

ARM D: Patients receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8, and 15, doxorubicin hydrochloride IV over
90 minutes and cyclophosphamide IV over 30 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days
for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After 6
courses, patients can continue single agent selinexor until disease progression. (ARM CLOSED)

ARM E: Patients receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8, and 15 and carboplatin IV over 30 minutes
and paclitaxel IV over 3 hours on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 8 courses
depending on cancer type (6 courses for non-small cell lung cancer, up to 8 courses for
ovarian cancer and other histological malignancies) in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity. After 6 to 8 courses, patients can continue single agent selinexor
until disease progression. (ARM CLOSED)

ARM F: Patients receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8, and 15 and carboplatin IV over 30 minutes
and pemetrexed disodium IV over 10 minutes on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 6
courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After 6 courses,
patients can continue single agent selinexor until disease progression. (ARM CLOSED)

ARM G: Patients receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8, and 15 and topotecan hydrochloride IV over
30 minutes on days 1-5. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 8 courses in the absence of
disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After 8 courses, patients can continue single
agent selinexor until disease progression. (ARM CLOSED)

ARM H: Patients receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8, 15 and 22, irinotecan hydrochloride IV
over 90 minutes, fluorouracil continuous IV and leucovorin calcium IV over 2 hours on days 1
and 15. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression
or unacceptable toxicity. After 6 courses, patients can continue single agent selinexor until
disease progression. (ARM CLOSED)

ARM I: Patients receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8 and 15 and irinotecan hydrochloride IV over
90 minutes on days 1 and 8. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 8 courses in the
absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After 8 courses, patients can
continue single agent selinexor until disease progression. (ARM CLOSED)

ARM J: Patients receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8 and 15, capecitabine PO twice daily (BID)
on days 1-14 and oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up
to 8 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After 8 courses,
patients can continue single agent selinexor until disease progression. (ARM CLOSED)

ARM K: Patients receive selinexor PO on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 and olaparib PO BID on days
1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable
toxicity.

ARM L: Patients receive selinexor PO twice weekly (e.g. Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday
or Wednesday/Friday or Thursday/Saturday or Friday/Sunday) and pembrolizumab IV over 30
minutes on day 1. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.

ARM M: Patients receive selinexor PO twice weekly (e.g. Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday
or Wednesday/Friday or Thursday/Saturday or Friday/Sunday) and nivolumab IV over 30 minutes
on days 1 and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.

Patients may continue to receive selinexor and chemotherapy after confirmed progressive
disease in the absence of clinical deterioration and if the investigator considers that the
patient continues to receive benefit from the treatment.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 12 weeks for 1 year.
