A Phase 1 Study of Selinexor (KPT-330), a Selective XPO1 Inhibitor, in Recurrent and Refractory Pediatric Solid Tumors, Including CNS Tumors

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of selinexor in treating younger
patients with solid tumors or high-grade gliomas that have come back (recurred) or do not
respond to treatment (refractory). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as selinexor, 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.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) or the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of
the tablet formulation of selinexor in children with recurrent/refractory solid and central
nervous system (CNS) tumors.

II. To describe the toxicities of selinexor in children with recurrent/refractory solid and
CNS tumors.

III. To characterize the pharmacokinetics of the tablet formulation of selinexor in children
with recurrent/refractory solid and CNS tumors.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the antitumor effect of selinexor in a preliminary manner in children with
recurrent/refractory solid and CNS tumors.

II. To determine the pharmacodynamic properties of selinexor in children and adolescents with
refractory solid tumors in plasma proteins and whole blood ribonucleic acid (RNA).

III. To explore the penetration, pharmacodynamic effects, and biologic effects of selinexor
in tumor tissue of patients with recurrent/refractory high-grade gliomas (HGG) requiring
resection.

IV. To further assess the toxicity and antitumor effects of selinexor in children with
recurrent/refractory HGG in expanded cohorts following dose-escalation by measuring rate of
objective radiographic response (medical patients) and rate of progression-free survival
(PFS) six months from the start of treatment (surgical patients).

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study.

Patients receive selinexor orally (PO) twice weekly (days 1, 3, 8, 10, 15, and 17). Treatment
repeats every 28 days for up to 24 courses in the absence of disease progression or
unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Patients must have a body surface area (BSA) >= 0.84 m^2

- Diagnosis:

- Part A: Patients with recurrent or refractory solid tumors, including lymphoma
and CNS tumors, are eligible; patients must have had histologic verification of
malignancy at original diagnosis or relapse except in patients with intrinsic
brain stem tumors, optic pathway gliomas, or patients with pineal tumors and
elevations of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or serum tumor markers including
alpha-fetoprotein or beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)

- Part B: Patients with recurrent or refractory high grade glioma (World Health
Organization [WHO] grade III/IV) including disseminated tumors (excluding diffuse
intrinsic pontine glioma [DIPG]), not requiring surgical resection; patients must
have had histologic verification of malignancy at original diagnosis or relapse

- Part C: Patients with recurrent or refractory high grade glioma (WHO grade
III/IV) and requiring surgical resection (excluding DIPG and disseminated
tumors), who in the opinion of treating physicians, are medically stable to
receive 3-4 doses of selinexor (8-10 days of treatment) before undergoing surgery
without compromising the success of the procedure; note that if, in the opinion
of treating physicians, current symptoms necessitate surgery before 3-4 doses
will be able to be received, surgery should not be delayed to administer
selinexor, and the patient would be ineligible for protocol therapy

- Disease status:

- Part A: Patients must have either measurable or evaluable disease

- Parts B and C: Patients must have measurable disease on imaging

- Patient?s current disease state must be one for which there is no known curative
therapy or therapy proven to prolong survival with an acceptable quality of life

- Karnofsky >= 50% for patients > 16 years of age and Lansky >= 50 for patients =< 16
years of age; Note: Neurologic deficits in patients with CNS tumors must have been
relatively stable for at least 7 days prior to study enrollment; patients who are
unable to walk because of paralysis, but who are up in a wheelchair, will be
considered ambulatory for the purpose of assessing the performance score

- Patients must have fully recovered from the acute toxic effects of all prior
anti-cancer therapy and must meet the following minimum duration from prior
anti-cancer directed therapy prior to enrollment; if after the required timeframe, the
numerical eligibility criteria are met, e.g. blood count criteria, the patient is
considered to have recovered adequately

- Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: At least 21 days after the last dose of
myelosuppressive chemotherapy (42 days if prior nitrosourea)

- Hematopoietic growth factors: At least 14 days after the last dose of a
long-acting growth factor (e.g. Neulasta) or 7 days for short-acting growth
factor; for agents that have known adverse events occurring beyond 7 days after
administration, this period must be extended beyond the time during which adverse
events are known to occur; the duration of this interval must be discussed with
the study chair

- Biologic (anti-neoplastic agent): At least 7 days after the last dose of a
biologic agent; for agents that have known adverse events occurring beyond 7 days
after administration, this period must be extended beyond the time during which
adverse events are known to occur; the duration of this interval must be
discussed with the study chair

- Immunotherapy: At least 42 days after the completion of any type of
immunotherapy, e.g. tumor vaccines

- Antibodies: >= 21 days must have elapsed from infusion of last dose of antibody,
and toxicity related to prior antibody therapy must be recovered to grade =< 1

- Corticosteroids: If used to modify immune adverse events related to prior
therapy, >= 14 days must have elapsed since last dose of corticosteroid

- External beam radiation therapy (XRT): At least 14 days after local palliative
XRT (small port); at least 150 days must have elapsed if prior total body
irradiation (TBI), craniospinal XRT or if >= 50% radiation of pelvis; at least 42
days must have elapsed if other substantial bone marrow (BM) radiation

- Stem cell infusion without TBI: No evidence of active graft vs. host disease and
at least 56 days must have elapsed after transplant or stem cell infusion

- Patients must not have received prior exposure to selinexor

- For patients with solid tumors without known bone marrow involvement:

- * Peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1000/mm^3

- * Platelet count >= 100,000/mm^3 (transfusion independent, defined as not receiving
platelet transfusions for at least 7 days prior to enrollment)

- * Hemoglobin >= 8.0 g/dL at baseline (may receive red blood cell [RBC] transfusions)

- Patients with known bone marrow metastatic disease will be eligible for study if they
meet the blood counts (may receive transfusions provided they are not known to be
refractory to red cell or platelet transfusions); these patients will not be evaluable
for hematologic toxicity; at least 5 of every cohort of 6 patients must be evaluable
for hematologic toxicity for the dose-escalation part of the study; if dose-limiting
