Phase I/Ib Study of Irinotecan Liposome (Nal-IRI), Fluorouracil, Leucovorin, and Rucaparib in the Treatment of Select Gastrointestinal Metastatic Malignancies Followed by a Phase II Study of First Line Treatment of Selected Patients With Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas With Genomic Markers (Signature) of Homologous Recombination Deficiency (HRD)

This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of liposomal irinotecan and
rucaparib and when given together with fluorouracil and leucovorin calcium and to see how
well they work in treating patients with pancreatic, colorectal, gastroesophageal, or biliary
cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as
liposomal irinotecan, fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium, and rucaparib, 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 establish the recommended dose level for the phase Ib and phase II trial of liposomal
irinotecan (nal-IRI) and fluorouracil (5-FU) with rucaparib (MFR) in patients with metastatic
disease from pancreatic cancer (up to 2 lines of prior therapy), colorectal cancer (up to 3
lines of prior therapy), gastroesophageal cancer (up to 1 line of prior therapy) and biliary
tract cancer (with 1 line of prior therapy allowed). (Phase I) II. To assess, in a
preliminary fashion, antitumor efficacy, in terms of objective response, of the recommended
dose level of combination of nal-IRI and 5-FU with rucaparib in patients with metastatic
disease from pancreatic cancer (up to 1 line of prior therapy in the metastatic setting) and
gastroesophageal cancer (with 1 line of prior therapy in the metastatic setting). (Phase Ib)
III. To estimate the proportion of evaluable patients who reach complete response
(CR)/partial response (PR) =< 32 weeks after registration among patients with metastatic
adenocarcinoma of the pancreas with genomic markers (signature) of homologous recombination
deficiency (HRD), specifically BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2 mutation, treated with the combination
of nal-IRI and 5FU/leucovorin calcium (LV) with rucaparib (MFR). (Phase II)

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate the progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) for patients
with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas with genomic markers (signature) of homologous
recombination deficiency (HRD), specifically BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2 mutation, treated with
the combination of nal-IRI and 5-FU/LV with rucaparib (MFR). (Phase II) II. To assess the
toxicity of the combination of nal-IRI and 5-FU/LV with rucaparib in patients with metastatic
adenocarcinoma of the pancreas with genomic markers (signature) of homologous recombination
deficiency (HRD), specifically BRCA1/2 and PALB2 mutation. (Phase II)

TERTIARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the role of genomic markers (signature) of HRD, mutation other than BRCA1,
BRCA2, and PALB2 as predictive biomarkers of response to MFR.

II. To evaluate BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2 mutations as predictive biomarker of response to MFR.

OUTLINE: This is phase I, dose-escalation study of liposomal irinotecan and rucaparib and
followed by a phase II study.

Patients receive liposomal irinotecan intravenously (IV) over 90 minutes, leucovorin calcium
IV, and fluorouracil IV over 46 hours on days 1 and 15. Patients also receive rucaparib
orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 4-13 and 18-27. Courses repeat every 28 days in the
absence of disease progression or unaccepted toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 3 years.

biliary adenocarcinoma, as follows:

more than 1 line of prior therapy in the metastatic setting

- Patients with metastatic disease from biliary tract cancer who received no more
than 1 line of prior therapy in the metastatic setting

- NOTE: No prior exposure to irinotecan in the metastatic setting will be allowed
except in the phase I dose escalation portion and in colon cancer patients only;
in pancreas cancer, exposure to irinotecan is only allowed in the neoadjuvant
setting and no progressive disease < 3 months from last dose of irinotecan

- Phase Ib only: Histologic confirmation of pancreatic or gastroesophageal
adenocarcinoma, as follows:

- Patients with metastatic disease from pancreatic cancer who received no more than
1 line of prior therapy in the metastatic setting

- Patients with metastatic disease from gastroesophageal cancer who received no
more than 1 line of prior therapy in the metastatic setting

- NOTE: No prior exposure to any irinotecan in the metastatic setting will be
allowed

- Phase II only: Patients with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the pancreas with genomic
markers (signature) of homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) or BRCA1 or BRCA2 or
PALB2 mutation, or HRD (non-BRCA, non-PALB) who have not received any systemic therapy
in the metastatic setting

neoadjuvant setting and no progressive disease < 3 months from last dose of
irinotecan

- Is postmenopausal, defined as no menses for at least 12 months without an
alternative medical cause; a high follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level
consistently in the postmenopausal range (30 mIU/mL or higher) may be used to
confirm a postmenopausal state in women not using hormonal contraception or
hormonal replacement therapy; however, in the absence of 12 months of amenorrhea,
a single FSH measurement is insufficient to confirm a postmenopausal state: or
