A Phase 1/2a Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Adding AL3818, a Dual Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor, to Standard Platinum-Based Chemotherapy, in Subjects With Recurrent or Metastatic Endometrial, Ovarian, Fallopian, Primary Peritoneal or Cervical Carcinoma (AL3818-US-002)

This trial is a Phase 1b/2a trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of adding oral
AL3818 to standard platinum-based chemotherapy concurrently and continued as a maintenance
therapy for up to 12 months.

This trial is a Phase 1b/2a trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of adding oral
AL3818 to standard platinum-based chemotherapy such as carboplatin plus paclitaxel,
concurrently and continued as a maintenance therapy for up to 12 months, in subjects with
recurrent or metastatic endometrial, ovarian, fallopian, primary peritoneal, or cervical
carcinoma. AL3818 is a novel small molecule dual receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, which
shows highly selective inhibition of fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFr) and vascular
endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR). Preclinical studies of this agent in mouse
models, including various cancer xenografts, have demonstrated that treatment of
tumor-bearing mice with AL3818 induces tumor reductions.

This study will be divided into two parts. The objective of Part 1 is the evaluation of the
safety and tolerability of adding oral AL3818 to standard carboplatin plus paclitaxel
chemotherapy for a cycle of 21 days to determine the recommended Phase II dose (RP2D). The
objective of Part 2 is evaluation of preliminary efficacy and the safety of adding oral
AL3818 at the RP2D determined in Part 1 to carboplatin and paclitaxel chemotherapy for 6
cycles. Continuous maintenance mono therapy with 14 days on and 7 days off regimen at the
RP2D will be conducted up to 12 months and is extendable beyond until disease progression.

adenocarcinoma

100,000/mm3

2. Renal function: creatinine ≤ 1.5 x institutional upper limit normal (ULN) or if
creatinine is > 1.5 x ULN, creatinine clearance must be > 50 mL/min.

3. Hepatic function: bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN or ≤ 3.0 x ULN for subjects with Gilbert
Syndrome; AST and ALT ≤ 3.0 × ULN.

4. Coagulation profile: international normalized ratio (INR) is ≤ 1.5 and an aPTT or
PTT < 1.2 x ULN

5. ECOG performance ≤ 2

7. Women of child-bearing potential must agree to use contraceptive measures starting 1
week before C1D1 until 4 weeks after the last dose of study treatment and have a
negative serum pregnancy test within 28 days of enrollment.

study and with follow-up procedures.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Serious, non-healing wound, ulcer or bone fracture.

2. Major surgical procedure within 28 days or minor surgical procedure performed within 7
days prior to C1D1 (a major surgical procedure is defined as requiring general
anesthesia).

3. (Intentionally left blank)

4. Active bleeding or pathologic conditions that carry high risk of bleeding, such as
known bleeding disorder, coagulopathy, or tumor involving major vessels.

5. History or evidence upon physical examination of central nervous system (CNS) disease
including primary brain tumor; seizures not controlled with standard medical therapy;
and history of cerebrovascular accident (CVA, stroke), transient ischemic attack
(TIA), or subarachnoid hemorrhage within 6 months of enrollment.

stable at the time of study enrollment, and is not receiving corticosteroid therapy.
