Who can take part
AI summary
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults with advanced or spread eye (uveal) melanoma whose disease grew after earlier immunotherapy. It tests roginolisib against the doctor's choice of therapy.
- Age
- 18 years or older
- Sex
- Men and women can join.
- Disease stage
- Advanced or metastatic uveal or ocular melanoma, proven by tissue or cell tests. At least one lesion that can be measured and one that can be biopsied. ECOG performance status 0 to 1.
- Earlier treatment
- Must have had disease progression after at least 1 earlier immunotherapy. If HLA-A*02:01 positive, earlier treatment should have included tebentafusp, if available or clinically possible. Earlier melphalan hepatic infusion is allowed.
- Biomarker or test result
- HLA-A*02:01 status matters for earlier treatment: people who are HLA-A*02:01 positive should have had tebentafusp, if available.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Cannot swallow oral medication
- Another cancer, apart from a few exceptions such as treated cancers with no return in 2 years
- Symptomatic or untreated brain metastases, or ones needing recent corticosteroids
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women
- Active hepatitis B or C, or an active infection needing antibiotics
The registry criteria, word for word
Show all 24 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- Male or female aged 18 years or older
- Histologically or cytologically proven diagnosis of advanced or metastatic UM or ocular melanoma (arising from ocular melanocytes regardless of intraocular location)
- Patients who have progressed following at least 1 prior immunotherapy treatment for advanced or metastatic UM. For patients who are HLA-A*02:01 positive prior treatment should have included tebentafusp, if available or patients clinically suitable. Patients who have also received prior melphalan hepatic infusion may be included
- Presence of at least one lesion suitable for biopsy. Biopsies will be mandatory at Screening and C5D1
- Presence of at least one measurable lesion as per RECIST v1.1. Any lesion that is biopsied cannot be used as a measurable lesion for the purposes of RECIST v1.1 assessments
- ECOG performance status of 0 to 1
- Male or female patients of child-bearing potential must be willing to use highly effective forms of contraception (refer to APPENDIX 7 for details on highly effective methods of contraception and definitions of women of childbearing potential and of fertile men): a) Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum test as per local guidelines during screening and EOT and agree to have regular urine pregnancy testing throughout the study. WOCBP must agree to use highly effective method of contraception throughout the study and until 1 month after last dose of IMP; b) Male patients must agree to use barrier method of contraception [condom plus spermicide] from screening through Safety Follow-up visit, at least 1 month after the last dose of IMP. Men should refrain from donating sperm from the day of first dose of IMP, throughout the study and until 3 months after last dose of IMP. Men with partners of child-bearing potential must also be willing to ensure that their partner uses a highly effective method of contraception for the same duration. Men with pregnant or lactating partners should be advised to use barrier method contraception (e.g., condom plus spermicidal gel) to prevent exposure to the foetus or neonate
- All other relevant medical conditions must be well managed and stable, in the Investigator’s opinion, for at least 28 days prior to first dose of roginolisib
- Provision of signed and dated, written informed consent prior to any study specific procedures, sampling and analyses
Who cannot take part
- Inability to swallow oral medication
- Malignant disease, other than that being treated in this study (e.g., skin/cutaneous and/or mucosal melanoma). Exceptions to this exclusion include the following: malignancies that were treated curatively and have not recurred within 2 years prior to first dose of IMP; completely resected basal cell and squamous cell skin cancers; any malignancy considered to be indolent and that has never required therapy; and completely resected carcinoma in situ of any type
- Treatment with anti-tumour medications or investigational drugs within 14 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) of administration of first dose of IMP;, with the exception of prior anticancer agents with long half-lives (e.g., PD-1/PD-L1 targeting agents), which are required to have a washout of 4 weeks prior to the first dose of IMP
- Major surgery within 2 weeks of the first dose of IMP (minimally invasive procedures such as bronchoscopy, tumour biopsy, insertion of a central venous access device, and insertion of a feeding tube are not considered major surgery and are not exclusionary
- Radiotherapy within 4 weeks of the first dose of IMP, with the exception of palliative radiotherapy to a limited field, such as for the treatment of bone pain or a focally painful tumour mass
- a). History of a prior Grade 3 or 4 irAE or any grade ocular irAE from prior immunotherapy which did not respond to corticosteroid therapy or resolved with treatment interruptions and returned to at least Grade 1; b). Have not recovered from toxic effect(s) of prior therapy to ≤ Grade 1, other than alopecia or fatigue or neuropathy which must be ≤ Grade 1
- Presence of symptomatic or untreated CNS metastases or CNS metastases that require doses of corticosteroids within the prior 3 weeks to first dose of roginolisib. Patients with brain metastases are eligible if lesions have been treated with localised therapy and there is no evidence of progressive disease for at least 4 weeks prior to the first dose of IMP
- Active infection requiring systemic antibiotic therapy. Patients requiring systemic antibiotics for infection must have completed therapy at least 1 week prior to the first dose of IMP
- Any medical condition that would, in the Investigator's or Sponsor's judgment, prevent the patient's participation in the clinical study due to safety concerns, compliance with clinical study procedures or interpretation of study results
- Clinically significant cardiac disease or impaired cardiac function which may limit the patient´s participation in the clinical study. These may include unstable angina (i.e., not responsive to medical intervention), myocardial infarct in last 6 months, QTcF prolongation of more than 500 ms
- Evidence of interstitial lung disease or active, non-infectious pneumonitis, pulmonary fibrosis
- Active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection per institutional protocol
- Abnormal liver enzymes defined as: a) ALT or AST ≥ 3× upper limit of normal (ULN) (≥ 5× ULN in patients with liver metastases); b) Total bilirubin ≥ 1.5 × ULN are excluded unless direct bilirubin is ≤ ULN. If there is no institutional ULN, then direct bilirubin must be < 40% of total bilirubin to be eligible (except patients with Gilbert syndrome)
- Any other clinically significant out of range laboratory values
- Pregnant, likely to become pregnant, or lactating women
