Background summary
Poziotinib (HM781-36B) is a novel, oral, quinazoline-based pan-HER inhibitor
that irreversibly blocks signaling through the EGFR family of tyrosine-kinase
receptors, including human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER1/ErbB1/EGFR),
HER2 (ErbB2), and HER4 (ErbB4), as well as HER receptor mutations. This, in
turn, leads to inhibition of the proliferation of tumor cells that overexpress
these receptors. It is well established that several malignancies, including
lung, breast, stomach, colorectal, head, and neck, and pancreatic carcinomas,
are associated with a mutation in or overexpression of members of the EGFR
receptor family.
To date, more than 200 patients have received poziotinib monotherapy in
open-label clinical trials at doses ranging from 0.5 mg to 32 mg on an
intermittent dosing schedule and from 12 mg to 24 mg on a continuous dosing
schedule, or as combination therapy with trastuzumab and paclitaxel. Clinical
activity was observed in patients on poziotinib monotherapy and in combination
with other anti-cancer agents, as defined by objective responses or prolonged
stabilization of disease. Clinical benefit has been observed in patients with
several solid tumors.
Based on the promising clinical data and acceptable safety profile from studies
in HER2-overexpressed tumors and the preclinical data suggesting activity
against EGFR and HER2 exon 20 insertion mutations, a single-center Phase 2
Investigator Initiated Study (IIS) was started to evaluate poziotinib in the
patients with NSCLC and EGFR or HER2 exon 20 insertion mutations. The design of
this study is similar to the IIS and is intended for further evaluation of the
efficacy and safety of poziotinib in this NSCLC patient population.
Study objective
Objectives:
To evaluate the following in NSCLC patients with EGFR or HER2 exon 20 insertion
mutations (including
duplication mutations) who are treated with poziotinib:
Primary Objective:
Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Secondary Objectives:
• Disease Control Rate (DCR)
• Duration of Response (DoR)
• Safety and tolerability
Exploratory Objectives:
• Progression-free Survival (PFS)
• Quality of Life (QoL) (Cohorts 1 to 4 only)
• Evaluate alternate poziotinib starting doses and schedules
• Evaluate poziotinib in patients who progressed while on treatment with
first-line osimertinib (Cohort 6 only)
• Evaluate poziotinib in patients with EGFR or HER2 activating mutations
• Evaluate overall survival
• Characterize the PK profile of poziotinib
Study design
This is a Phase 2, open-label, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and
the safety/tolerability of poziotinib in up to 554 patients with previously
treated and treatment-naïve NSCLC exon 20 insertion mutations.
Duration of Study: The study will run for approximately 5 years. The total
duration of the study for each patient will be approximately 2 years. The
duration of study participation for each patient includes the following
segments:
• Screening Period: up to 30 days
• Treatment Period: 28 days per cycle until disease progression or a maximum of
24 months after the initiation of the study treatment, whichever comes first
• Safety Follow-up Visit: 35 (±5) days after the last dose of poziotinib
• Long-Term Follow-up: After study drug discontinuation, patients who have
consented will be contacted every 3 months, for up to 2 years after patient*s
first dose of poziotinib, for survival assessment
Intervention
The Screening period (Day -30 to Day -1) lasts up to approximately 30 days
prior to Cycle 1, Day 1. Patients must meet all Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria to
participate in the study. Eligible patients will provide written Informed
Consent prior to undergoing any study procedures.
Each treatment cycle is 28 calendar days in duration. There will be four
cohorts and eligible patients will be enrolled into each cohort based on EGFR
or HER2 exon 20 mutation status and prior treatment status:
• Cohort 1 (ZENITH20-1): Previously treated patients with EGFR exon 20
insertion mutation positive NSCLC
• Cohort 2 (ZENITH20-2): Previously treated patients with HER2 exon 20
insertion mutation positive NSCLC
• Cohort 3 (ZENITH20-3): Treatment naïve patients with EGFR exon 20 insertion
mutation positive NSCLC
• Cohort 4 (ZENITH20-4): Treatment naïve patients with HER2 exon 20 insertion
mutation positive NSCLC
• Cohort 5 (ZENITH20-5): Patients who meet the criteria for enrollment in
Cohort 1 to 4, but the enrollment in the respective cohort has been closed
• Cohort 6 (ZENITH20-6): Patients with acquired EGFR mutation who progressed
while on treatment with first-line osimertinib
• Cohort 7 (ZENITH20-7): Patients with EGFR or HER2 activating mutations
Toxicity will be assessed based on the grade of the adverse events using CTCAE
version 4.03.
All treatments will be taken orally, once daily (QD) at approximately the same
time each morning. On Day 1 of each 28-day cycle, the patient*s absolute
neutrophil count (ANC) must be >=1.5×109/L and platelet count must be >=100×109/L
before administering poziotinib. All patients will be treated until disease
progression, death, intolerable adverse events, or up to a maximum of 24
months, whichever comes first.
Taking of poziotinib is once a day (QD). Poziotinib is supplied as 8-mg tablets
and 2-mg tablets and will be administered on an outpatient basis orally once
daily with breakfast at approximately the same time each morning. If the
morning dose is missed, this dose may be administered any time during the day
preferably with food, but at least 8 hours prior to the next scheduled dose. On
Cycle 2 Day 1, the daily dose will be taken at the clinic after the ECG is
performed.

Additional blood samples will be collected (an additional 4 teaspoons) to test
for pharmacogenomics.
During the study, blood plasma will be taken (an additional 4 teaspoons) and
sent to a central laboratory for biomarker testing at each imaging session
(beginning at Cycle 3).
The PK profile of poziotinib and its metabolites (M1 and M2) will be
characterized. All patients will have blood samples drawn pre-dose and at 1
hour and 2 hours (±15 min) post-dose on Cycle 1, Day 1 and Cycle 2, Day 1 for
sparse PK and time-matched concentration-ECG analysis. At select study centers,
patients (a minimum of 6 patients per dosing schedule) will be specifically
consented for intensive PK in the 8 mg BID groups in Cohort 5. Intensive PK
blood sampling will replace sparse PK blood sampling in Cycle 1 and sparse
sampling on Cycle 2, Day 1 is not required in these patients. The schedule for
intensive PK blood sampling will be pre-dose and 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24 hours
post-dose on Cycle 1, Day 1 and Cycle 1, Day 8 (±2 days). The 12-hour PK sample
must be collected prior to the second daily dose (12-hour dose). Patient must
be on drug at the time of blood sampling.
Study burden and risks
Patients will be required to: take poziotinib by mouth twice a day starting
with with breakfast at approximately the same time each morning during each
28-day treatment cycle; come to the hospital for study drug visits, tests and
procedures, use an effective form of birth control while on study drug and for
a minimum of 30 days after the last dose of the study drug; take a preganncy
test at screening; complete diaries and questionnaires.
The most commonly reported risks of poziotinib are: loose stools or diarrhea,
which could lead to dehydration, rash, mouth sores and lesions, decreased
appetite, dry skin and itchiness, upset stomach and abdominal pain, nausea,
vomiting, fatigue, runny nose, infection of the hand or foot including nail
infection, hand-foot syndrome (redness, swelling and numbness of hands and
feet).
