Overview

The primary objective are:

To assess the safety and tolerability of the combination of D07001-softgel capsules and Xeloda/TS-1.

To evaluate the efficacy of the combination of D07001-softgel capsules and Xeloda/TS-1, as assessed by disease control rate (DCR).

Description

This open label, multicenter study will be conducted in 2 stages: a dose-finding stage (Phase IIa) and a dose-expansion stage (Phase IIb/III).

In phase IIa, eligible patients will be assigned to receive oral D07001-softgel on Days 1, 3, 5, 8, 10, 12, 15, 17, and 19 of a 21-day cycle (9 doses per cycle) and Xeloda (or TS-1) twice daily on Day 1-14 of a 21-day cycle.

A modified 3+3 dose-finding design method will be applied to identify dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and establish the selected dose of D07001-softgel capsules plus Xeloda (or TS-1).

In phase IIb/III,the first 40 subjects (20 subjects per arm) will be randomly allocated in a 1:1 ratio in two arms. Arm A will receive active symptom control (ASC) with the selected dose from dose-finding stage of D07001-softgel capsules and Xeloda (or TS-1), in 21-day cycles. In arm B, subjects will receive ASC with mFOLFOX treatment. After the last subject of first 40 subjects will be completed the visit in the end of treatment, an adaptive interim analysis will be planned to re-estimate the required sample size based on the result of DCR if needed. The sponsor team will determine whether the study will be continued or stopped for futility.

If the study continues to proceed, the total subject number will be based on the decision from the results of interim study. The rest of subjects will be randomized to receive the combination of study drug or active-control drug with the same allocation in two arms. Both groups will continue the therapy until disease progression, withdrawn consent, or when another treatment discontinuation criterion is met.

    2. Total bilirubin ≤1.5 x ULN
    3. Albumin ≥3.0 g/dL
    4. International normalized ratio (INR) <1.5
  8. Adequate renal function, demonstrated by:
    1. Serum creatinine ≤1.5 x ULN

  9. A negative serum pregnancy test at screening and is not breastfeeding in woman of

    childbearing potential

  10. Women of childbearing potential or male subjects must use a medically acceptable form of contraception as 2 barrier methods (e.g., combination of condom, diaphragm, or intrauterine device), hormonal contraception (estrogen or progesterone agents) or 1 barrier method in combination with spermicide. Birth control is required 1 month prior to screening, for the duration of their study participation, and for 1 month after the end of the study; female partners of male subjects must adhere to the same birth control methods.
  11. Provision of a signed and dated written Informed Consent Form (ICF) prior to any study specific procedures
  12. Subject is willing to comply with protocol-required visit schedule and visit requirements
  13. No more than 60 days have elapsed between completion of the prior line of chemotherapy or CCRT and enrollment
  14. Subject has not received other chemotherapy since first-line treatment

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Have prior chemotherapy regimen other than first line gemcitabine and cisplatin-based therapy for unresectable metastatic or locally advanced BTC Note: prior fluoropyrimidine base (including capecitabine, carmofur (HCFU), doxifluridine, fluorouracil (5-FU), and tegafur) chemotherapy (including fluoropyrimidine monotherapy or combination therapy) are allowed as postsurgical adjuvant therapy.
  2. Diagnosis of active malignancy other than BTC within the past 2 years, except nonmelanoma skin carcinoma and carcinoma-in-situ of uterine cervix treated with curative intent
  3. Prior discontinuation of gemcitabine because of pulmonary or hepatic toxicity or hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) or hypersensitivity, allergic reaction, or intolerance
  4. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to capecitabine, tegafur, gimeracil, oteracil potassium, oxaliplatin or other platinum compounds, leucovorin products, folic acid or folinic acid, 5-fluorouracil or their excipients.
  5. Prior discontinuation of fluoropyrimidine because of any unexpected or severe reaction.
  6. Treatment with brivudine, sorivudine, or its chemically-related analogs ≤ 28 days prior to the date of enrollment.
  7. Under flucytosine treatment.
  8. Residual toxicity from prior chemotherapy or CCRT that is Grade ≥2 (residual Grade 2 neuropathy and alopecia are permitted)
  9. Any GI disorder which would significantly impede absorption of an oral agent
  10. Known brain or leptomeningeal metastases
  11. Major surgery or definitive ablation-intent (excluding palliative radiotherapy for bone metastasis) radiation therapy within the past 28 days
  12. Any active disease or condition that would not permit compliance with the protocol
  13. Clinically significant cardiovascular disease (e.g., uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina, congestive heart failure, or New York Heart Association [NYHA] Grade 2 or greater), or uncontrolled serious cardiac arrhythmia
