A Phase 0/II Study of Ribociclib (LEE011) in Combination With Everolimus in Preoperative Rb-Intact Recurrent High-Grade Glioma Patients Scheduled for Resection to Evaluate Central Nervous System (CNS) Penetration

In the proposed trial, patients will be administered ribociclib+everolimus prior to surgical
resection of their tumor. Recurrent GBM patients will be randomized into one of the three
time-interval cohorts.

All patients will receive ribociclib 400 mg and everolimus 2.5 mg (R2P2D) orally-administered
in 5 daily doses with the last dose being administered at one of 3 intervals before brain
tumor resection:

- Cohort 1: last ribociclib+everolimus dose 2 to 4 hours prior to craniotomy for tumor
resection (n=8 patients)

- Cohort 2: last ribociclib+everolimus dose 8 to 10 hours prior to craniotomy for tumor
resection (n=8 patients)

- Cohort 3: last ribociclib+everolimus dose 24 to 26 hours prior to craniotomy for tumor
resection (n=8 patients) To assess the PK and PD endpoints listed above, blood, CSF and
brain tumor tissue will be collected intraoperatively (enhancing and non-enhancing tumor
tissue will be collected and analyzed separately). Additionally, blood samples will be
obtained on Day 4 (the day before the surgery for Cohorts 1 & 2; 2 days before surgery
for Cohort 3) at pre-dosing (trough level), 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 7 hours post dose. A
pre-dosing (trough level) blood sample will also be obtained on Day 5.

Patients with tumors demonstrating favorable PK and PD will continue treatment with RP2D
continuously in 28d cycles after surgery. This will constitute the Phase II component of the
study. Patients will be treated until unacceptable toxicity is observed, or until disease
progression as assessed by radiographic or clinical metrics. Preliminary rates of
progression-free survival in patients with high-grade gliomas treated with
ribociclib+everolimus will be measured through radiographic and clinical response metrics,
specifically Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology (RANO) criteria and investigator
discretion. Overall survival in patients with high-grade gliomas treated with
ribociclib+everolimus will be assessed by medical record review and survival follow up.
Common Toxicity Criteria Adverse Event (CTC AE 4.03) will be utilized to review
ribociclib+everolimus treatment effects in patients with brain tumors.

In Phase II portion, trough steady-state blood samples will be obtained on days 1, 8, 15, and
22 of each cycle prior to the administration of ribociclib+everolimus on that day. Note:
ribociclib+everolimus will be administered in the clinics on the clinic visit days to ensure
the collection of trough level samples.


Inclusion Criteria:

1. Prior resection of histologically-diagnosed WHO Grade III or IV glioma. A. Glioma

becoming pregnant, unless they are using highly effective methods of contraception
during dosing and for 3 months after the last dose of study treatment. Highly
effective contraception methods include:

- Total abstinence (when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of
the subject. Periodic abstinence (e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal,

hysterectomy) or tubal ligation at least six weeks before taking study treatment.
In case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has
been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment

post-vasectomy documentation of the absence of sperm in the ejaculate. For female
subjects on the study the vasectomized male partner should be the sole partner
for that subject

- Use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception or placement
of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS), or other forms of
hormonal contraception that have comparable efficacy (failure rate <1%), for
example hormone vaginal ring or transdermal hormone contraception

- In case of use of oral contraception, women should have been stable on the same
pill for a minimum of 3 months before taking study treatment

- Note: Oral contraceptives are allowed but should be used in conjunction with a
barrier method of contraception due to unknown effect of drug-drug interaction
Women are considered post-menopausal and not of child bearing potential if they
have had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate
clinical profile (e.g. age appropriate history of vasomotor symptoms) or have had
surgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy) or tubal ligation
at least six weeks ago. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the
reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level
assessment is she considered not of child bearing potential

28. Sexually active males unless they use a condom during intercourse while taking drug
and for 21 days after stopping treatment and should not father a child in this period.
A condom is required to be used also by vasectomized men in order to prevent delivery
of the drug via seminal fluid.
