Study of Chemotherapy Plus Ipatasertib in Participants With Solid Tumors With AKT Mutations, A ComboMATCH Treatment Trial

• Status: Not yet recruiting
• Trial end date: 2025-08-31
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

This ComboMATCH phase II trial tests the usual treatment of chemotherapy (paclitaxel) plus ipatasertib in patients with solid tumor cancers that that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic), and has an AKT genetic change. Chemotherapy drugs, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Targeted therapy, such as Ipatasertib, may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. The addition of ipatasertib to paclitaxel in solid tumors with an AKT genetic change could increase the percentage of tumors that shrink as well as lengthen the time that the tumors remain stable (without progression). Researchers hope to learn if paclitaxel plus ipatasertib will shrink this type of cancer or stop its growth.

• Participants must not have an activating KRAS, NRAS, HRAS, or BRAF mutation (a single nucleotide variant, insertion, or deletion) as determined by the ComboMATCH screening assessment

• Participants must not have spinal cord compression or brain metastases unless: (1) metastases have been locally treated and have remained clinically controlled and asymptomatic for at least 14 days prior to registration, AND (2) participant has no residual neurological dysfunction and has been off corticosteroids for at least 24 hours prior to registration

• Participants must not have leptomeningeal disease

• Participants must not have received any prior AKT inhibitor (e.g., capivasertib or ipatasertib); prior PI3K/mTOR inhibitor is acceptable

Participants with infections unlikely to be resolved within 2 weeks following registration should not be considered for the trial

• Participants must not have a known grade 2 or higher uncontrolled or untreated hypercholesterolemia or hypertriglyceridemia

• Cirrhosis at a level of Child-Pugh B (or worse),

• NOTE: Because the lists of these agents are constantly changing, it is important to regularly consult a frequently updated medical reference. As part of the enrollment/informed consent procedures, the participant will be counseled on the risk of interactions with other agents, and what to do if new medications need to be prescribed or if the participant is considering a new over-the-counter medicine or herbal product.
