Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of EVER4010001 in combination with Pembrolizumab in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors. And in phase II to assess the anti-tumor efficacy of EVER4010001 in combination with Pembrolizumab in treating selected indications using appropriate biomarkers.

Detailed Description

This is a phase I/II, single arm, multicenter study of EVER4010001 combination with Pembrolizumab in advanced solid tumor patients. The primary endpoint of phase I will be Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) observed in combined administration of EVER4010001 and Pembrolizumab. And the primary endpoint of phase II will be the ORR per RECIST v1.1 in all treated patients.

Patients will be treated until progression requiring discontinuation of further treatment, unacceptable toxicity, study withdrawal, or death, whichever comes first. Tumor response and progression will be assessed using RECIST v1.1 and assessment by investigator at the trail center will be sufficient for decisions on continuation of treatment. All patients will visit the investigator at regular intervals for assessment of safety parameters and AEs.

Study Groups

EVER4010001 combination with Pembrolizumab

EVER4010001 combination with Pembrolizumab, EVER4010001 started dose escalation from 40mg bid, and then to 60mg bid, 80mg bid, 100mg bid and 120 mg bid if applicable, dose escalation decision will be made by safety monitoring committee which is composed of the study team members. After phase II dose was recommended by safety monitoring committee, this dose will be applied to phase II patients. Pembrolizumab will be administered at 200mg every 3 weeks through the study.

Phase II study part: 1. Histologically or cytologically confirmed metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors of the selected indications. 2. Positive FGF19 in IHC test results of tumor tissues in pre-screening.

Exclusion Criteria

1. Prior therapies within the following time frames prior to the first dose of study treatment:

• Last dose of conventional cytotoxic chemotherapy: ≤4 weeks ((≤ 6 weeks for nitrosoureas and mitomycin-C);
• Drugs with anti-tumor activity (e.g., antibodies): ≤4 weeks
• Non-cytotoxic small molecule therapeutics (e.g., sorafenib): ≤5 half-lives or ≤2 weeks (whichever is longer)
• Previous wide field radiotherapy (including therapeutic radioisotopes such as strontium 89) ≤ 4 weeks and limited field radiation for palliation ≤ 2 weeks (including particle implantation such as I125);
• Participation in a prior investigational study: ≤ 4 weeks;
• Drugs with immunomodulatory activity (such as thymosin, interferon, interleukin, etc.) ≤ 6 weeks.

2. Major surgery within 4 weeks of receiving the first dose of study treatment (mediastinoscopy, insertion of a central venous access device and insertion of a feeding tube are not considered major surgery).

3. Subject having out of range laboratory values including hematology, chemistry and coagulation indicators. See Section 5.3 for specific indicators.

4. Use of hematopoietic colony-stimulating growth factors (e.g. G-CSF, GM-CSF, M CSF), blood transfusion products (e.g., whole blood, plasma, apheresis platelets, etc.), thrombopoietin mimetics or erythroid stimulating agents ≤ 2 weeks prior to start of study treatment. If erythroid stimulating agents were initiated more than 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study treatment and the patient is on a stable dose, they can be maintained.

5. Malignant disease, other than that being treated in this study. Exceptions to this exclusion include the following: malignancies that were treated curatively and have not recurred within 5 years prior to study entry; completely resected basal cell and squamous cell skin cancers and completely resected carcinoma in situ of any type.

6. Symptomatic CNS metastases which are neurologically unstable, or CNS metastases requiring local CNS directed therapy (such as radiotherapy or surgery), or increasing doses of corticosteroids within 2 weeks of first dose of study treatment.

7. Serous effusion with clinically significant symptoms (such as shortness of breath, abdominal distention, etc.).

8. Major acute or chronic infections, including:

1. Positive human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) antibody screening or known acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS);

2. Active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection: positive HBV-DNA copies (>2000 IU/mL) and/or other activity indicators; positive HCV antibody and HCV-RNA test result;

3. active TB (such as exposure history or positive TB test; AND clinical symptoms, physical or imaging manifestations);

4. Ongoing antibiotic treatment of serious acute infections.

9. Previous treatment with a selective FGF19-FGFR4 targeted therapy and/or pan-FGFR inhibitor.

10. Patients receiving treatment with cytochrome P450 (CYP)1A2, CYP2C9 and CYP3A4/5 substrates with a narrow therapeutic index (NTI) that cannot be discontinued for the duration of the study.
