A Study to Compare the Blood Levels and Safety of Tazemetostat in Participants With Advanced Cancer and Moderate/Severe Liver Impairment to Participants With Advanced Cancer and Normal Liver Function

Study Purpose

This main aim of this trial will be to study the blood levels (known as pharmacokinetics) of the study drug tazemetostat. The pharmacokinetics of the study drug in participants with advanced solid tumors and moderate or severe hepatic (liver) impairment will be compared with participants with advanced malignancies and normal hepatic function. An advanced malignancy is a cancer that has recurred (come back) after prior treatment or hasn't controlled with treatment. The trial will also study the safety of the study drug in participants (how well it is tolerated).

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

NCT04241835
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

The study will be conducted in 2 parts for subjects with advanced malignancies and either normal liver function, or advanced malignancies and moderate, or severe hepatic impairment. Subjects in Part 1 of the study will receive a single oral, 800 mg dose of tazemetostat on Day 1 and Day 15. In addition, the subjects will receive tazemetostat (oral 800 mg dose) tablets to be taken twice daily from Day 5 to Day 14. Blood samples for PK analysis will be obtained on Day 1 through Day 4 and again on Day 15 through Day 18. Part 1 ends on Day 18. Subjects continuing treatment in Part 2 will receive tazemetostat (oral 800 mg dose) tablets to be taken twice daily in repeated 28-day cycles beginning on Day 19 until Investigator-assessed clinical progression per standard practice, or unacceptable toxicity, or until another discontinuation criterion is met. Subjects must have an end of study visit for safety assessment 30 days after the last dose of tazemetostat or prior to initiation of a subsequent anticancer therapy, whichever occurs first. Supplementary study conduct information not mandated to be present in this protocol is provided in the accompanying procedure manuals (i.e., laboratory, pharmacy, ECG manuals). Such manuals will provide the site personnel with administrative and detailed technical information that does not impact subject safety.
