Brief Summary

This phase II trial is studying how well brivanib alaninate works in treating patients with endometrial cancer that has come back (recurred) or is persistent. Brivanib alaninate may stop the growth of...

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To assess the activity of brivanib (brivanib alaninate) for patients with recurrent or persistent endometrial cancer with the frequency of patients who survive progression-free...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Patients must have recurrent or persistent endometrial carcinoma, which is refractory to curative therapy or established treatments; histologic confirmation of the original primary tumor is required
  • Patients with the following histologic epithelial cell types are eligible: endometrioid adenocarcinoma, serous adenocarcinoma, undifferentiated carcinoma, clear cell adenocarcinoma, mixed epithelial carcinoma, adenocarcinoma not otherwise specified (N.O.S.), mucinous adenocarcinoma, squamous cell, and transitional cell carcinoma
  • All patients must have measurable disease; measurable disease is defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest dimension to be recorded); each lesion must be \>= 20 mm when measured by conventional techniques, including palpation, plain x-ray, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or \>= 10 mm when measured by spiral CT
  • Patients must have at least one ?target lesion? to be used to assess response on this protocol as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST); tumors within a previously irradiated field will be designated as ?non-target? lesions unless progression is documented or a biopsy is obtained to confirm persistence at least 90 days following completion of radiation therapy
  • Patients must not be eligible for a higher priority Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) protocol, if one exists; in general, this would refer to any active GOG Phase III or Rare Tumor protocol for the same patient population
  • Patients who have received one prior regimen must have a GOG performance status of 0, 1, or 2; patients who have received two prior regimens must have a GOG performance status of 0 or 1
  • Recovery from effects of recent surgery, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy
  • Patients should be free of active infection requiring antibiotics (with the exception of uncomplicated urinary tract infection \[UTI\])
  • Any hormonal therapy directed at the malignant tumor must be discontinued at least one week prior to registration
  • Any other prior therapy directed at the malignant tumor, including immunologic agents, must be discontinued at least three weeks prior to registration
  • Patients must have had one prior chemotherapeutic regimen for management of endometrial carcinoma; chemotherapy administered in conjunction with primary radiation as a radio-sensitizer will be counted as a systemic chemotherapy regimen
  • Patients are allowed to receive, but are not required to receive, one additional cytotoxic regimen for management of recurrent or persistent endometrial disease according to the following definition:
  • Cytotoxic regimens include any agent that targets the genetic and/or mitotic apparatus of dividing cells, resulting in dose-limiting toxicity to the bone marrow and/or gastrointestinal mucosa
  • Note: Patients on this non-cytotoxic study are allowed to receive one additional cytotoxic chemotherapy regimen for management of recurrent or persistent endometrial disease, as defined above; however, patients are encouraged to enroll on second-line non-cytotoxic studies prior to receiving additional cytotoxic therapy
  • Patients must NOT have received any non-cytotoxic therapy for management of endometrial cancer with the exception of hormonal therapy
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than or equal to 1,500/mcl, equivalent to Common Terminology Criteria (CTCAE v3.0) grade 1
  • Platelets greater than or equal to 100,000/mcl
  • Hemoglobin \> 9 g/dl
  • Creatinine less than or equal to 1.5 x institutional upper limit normal (ULN), CTCAE v3.0 grade 1
  • Urinalysis needs to be assessed at baseline and proteinuria must be less than or equal to 3+ by dipstick (CTCAE v3.0 grade 2 or less); if the urine dipstick is \> 3+, a 24-hour protein level can be done, as clinically indicated by the investigator; the 24-hour protein level must be less than or equal to 3.5 g/24 hours (CTCAE v3.0 grade 2 or less)
  • Bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN (CTCAE v3.0 grade 1)
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase \[SGOT\]) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase \[SGPT\]) less than or equal to 2.5 x ULN (CTCAE v3.0 grade 1)
  • Alkaline phosphatase less than or equal to 2.5 x ULN (CTCAE v3.0 grade 1)
  • Albumin greater than or equal to 2.5 g/dl
  • Neuropathy (sensory and motor) less than or equal to CTCAE v3.0 grade 1
  • Prothrombin time (PT) such that international normalized ratio (INR) is \< 1.5 x ULN; patients on therapeutic warfarin are excluded from trial, anticoagulation with low molecular weight heparin is allowed
  • Patients must have signed an approved informed consent and authorization permitting release of personal health information
  • Patients must meet pre-entry requirements
  • Patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test performed 48 hours prior to study entry and be practicing an effective form of contraception during the study and for at least 3 months after receiving the final treatment of brivanib
  • All patients must have a baseline electrocardiogram completed prior to study entry; baseline electrocardiogram (ECG) should be repeated if corrected QT interval (QTc) is found to be \> 450 msec; QTc must NOT be \> 450 msec on both ECGs performed during the same visit

Exclusion

  • Patients who have had prior therapy with brivanib or anti-vascular, anti-PDGFR (platelet-derived growth factor receptor) or anti-FGFR (fibroblast growth factor receptor) therapy
  • Patients with a history of other invasive malignancies, with the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer and other specific malignancies as noted below, are excluded if there is any evidence of the other malignancy being present within the last three years; patients are also excluded if their previous cancer treatment contraindicates this protocol therapy
  • Patients who have received prior radiotherapy to any portion of the abdominal cavity or pelvis OTHER THAN for the treatment of endometrial cancer within the last three years are excluded; prior radiation for localized cancer of the breast, head and neck, or skin is permitted, provided that it was completed more than three years prior to registration, and the patient remains free of recurrent or metastatic disease
  • Patients who have received prior chemotherapy for any abdominal or pelvic tumor OTHER THAN for the treatment of endometrial cancer within the last three years are excluded; patients may have received prior adjuvant chemotherapy for localized breast cancer, provided that it was completed more than three years prior to registration, and that the patient remains free of recurrent or metastatic disease
  • Patients that are on required chronic anti-platelet therapy (aspirin \> 300 mg/day, or clopidogrel greater than or equal to 75 mg/day)
  • Patients with gastrointestinal bleeding or any other hemorrhage/bleeding event CTCAE grade \>= 3 within 30 days prior to study entry

  • History of stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA), or other central nervous system (CNS) ischemic event
  • Cardiac arrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmic therapy other than beta blockers or digoxin
  • Patients must have pre-therapy left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) testing and have an ejection fraction \> 50%
  • Patients with valvular heart disease \>= CTCAE grade2
  • Patients with a serious uncontrolled medical disorder or active infection which would impair the ability of the subject to receive protocol therapy or whose control may be jeopardized by the complications of this therapy
  • Pre-existing thyroid abnormality with thyroid function that can not be maintained in the normal range with medication
  • Patients with hyponatremia (sodium \< 130 mEq/L)
  • Patients with active/known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B, or hepatitis C
  • Patients with known brain metastases
  • Patients who are pregnant or nursing
