Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Module 2 aims to identify the minimum biologically active dose (MBAD), maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/maximum feasible dose (MFD), and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of GRWD5769 when used in combination with cemiplimab-rwlc 350 mg in participants with advanced solid tumours. Module 2 may commence following identification of the GRWD5769 monotherapy MBAD in Module 1, Part A (ACTRN12623000108617; this will be the starting dose level for Module 2). Module 2 will initially include 3 separate parts (Parts A, B and C) as described below:

Part A: Part A is an open label, dose escalation part using a Bayesian Optimal Interval design (BOIN) design to determine the MTD/MFD of GRWD5769 when administered in combination with cemiplimab-rwlc 350 mg. GRWD5769 starting dose will be the dose that meets the definition of MBAD and as approved by the Safety Review Committee (SRC). The approved GRWD5769 dose level 1 will be 100mg twice daily (BID) as approved by SRC.

Part B (optional): Module 2 Part B may commence following the identification of
the GRWD5769 combination therapy MBAD. Dose level cohorts which are at or above the MBAD (and which are at or below the combination therapy MTD/MFD) may be expanded to include up to an additional 24 participants for further evaluation
of the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PDc) of GRWD5769 in combination with cemiplimab-rwlc 350 mg.

Part C: Module 2 Part C may commence following the identification of the GRWD5769 combination therapy MTD and/or RPD2. The study may be expanded to evaluate GRWD5769 at the MTD/MFD/RP2D in combination with cemiplimab-rwlc 350 mg in up to 3 cohorts of solid tumour indications (up to 30 participants per arm), with subsets to be defined based on emerging data from Module 2 Part A.

For Module 2 Part A, an initial single dose of GRWD5769 will be administered on Day 1, of Cycle 0, followed by a minimum 24-hour treatment free period, then twice daily dosing will commence. For each dose level cohort in Module 2 GRWD5769 capsules will be administered orally, twice daily (BID) on Days 1-14 of each 21-day treatment cycle, and cemiplimab-rwlc will be administered as an intravenous infusion of 350 mg over 30 minutes, every 3 weeks (Q3W). Administration of cemiplimab-rwlc 350mg will commence at Cycle 1 for Module 2 Part A and Module 2 Part C. Administration of cemiplimab-rwlc 350mg for Module 2 Part B will commence at Cycle 2. Each dose of cemiplimab-rwlc 350mg will be administered in the clinic, under the supervision of site staff.

In each study part, participants will continue to receive study medication until they withdraw their informed consent or are withdrawn from the study.

Any participant who has completed 12 months on study and is still receiving clinical benefit from treatment with GRWD5769 may continue to receive GRWD5769 in a safety extension phase.

Compliance with IMP dosing will be monitored and recorded. Where dosing occurs in the clinic, the date and time of IMP dosing will be recorded by site staff. For any at-home dosing of GRWD5769, participants will record the date and time of each administration in a participant diary.

Participants who have completed 12 months on study may enter a safety extension phase where they may continue to receive GRWD5769 and cemiplimab-rwlc 350mg until evidence of disease progression.

Participants will have an end of treatment visit within 7 days of cessation of therapy and again for a final follow up visit 30 days following cessation of therapy. Participants enrolled in Module 2 will have a telephone call at 90 days following last dose of cemplimab-rwlc 350mg.

Reasons for withdrawal of study therapy regardless of length of time on study include:
• Disease progression as defined by iRECIST or unequivocal clinical progression as determined by the investigator
• Unacceptable toxicity, defined as:
o Occurrence of a DLT within the first cycle of treatment;
o Occurrence of an AE that is related to treatment with the study drug which compromises the participant’s ability to continue; or
o Persistent AE requiring a delay of therapy for more than 3 weeks (21 days)
• Intercurrent illness or interruption of therapy that requires a delay of therapy for more than 3 weeks (21 days)
• Participant chooses to withdraw from the study
• Any other reason, in the opinion of the PI, that renders the participant no longer appropriate for study continuation.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 334010 0
Safety and tolerability of GRWD5769 when administered in combination with cemiplimab-rwlc 350 mg as assessed by incidence, type and severity of adverse events, graded in accordance with the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events.

Adverse events of special interest (AESIs) include any suspected or confirmed cytokine release syndrome event, or any greater than or equal to Grade 3 immune-related AE determined to be at least probably or possibly related to IMP (GRWD5769).

AESIs will be captured as part of the standard AE reporting and extracted from all AEs collected when analysing data. No separate reporting mechanisms by the site, or data capture mechanisms for AESIs are required.

The PI (or medically qualified designee) will make an assessment of severity for each AE and SAE reported during the study. The assessment will be based on the PI’s clinical judgement. The severity of each event will be graded using the most current version of NCI-CTCAE (Version 5) 5-point scale

The Investigator will use clinical judgment to determine whether or not the AE/SAE is causally related to the study drug. Alternative causes, such as natural history of the underlying diseases, concomitant therapy, other risk factors, and the temporal relationship of the event to the study drug will be considered and investigated. The Investigator will also consult the IB (for GRWD5769) or CMI in the determination of his/her assessment.

The causal relationship of the study drug to an AE will be rated according to the following 5-point scale:
• Unrelated: Clearly and incontrovertibly due only to extraneous causes, and does not meet criteria listed under unlikely, possible or probable;
• Unlikely: Does not follow a reasonable temporal sequence from administration; may have been produced by the participant’s clinical state or by environmental factors or other therapies administered;
• Possibly: Follows a reasonable temporal sequence from administration; may have been produced by the participant’s clinical state or by environmental factors or other therapies administered;
• Probably: Clear temporal association with improvement on cessation of study drug or reduction in dose. Reappears upon re-challenge or follows a known pattern of response to the study drug;
• Definitely: An AE that cannot be reasonably explained by an alternative explanation, e.g., concomitant drug(s), concomitant disease(s). The relationship in time is very suggestive.
Timepoint [1] 334010 0

Summary
Brief summary
This study aims to assess a new cancer drug, GRWD5769, in patients with advanced cancer.

Who is it for?
You may be eligible to join this study if you are aged 18 years or older, have a cytologically or histologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic solid malignancy not considered for further treatment, and have progressive disease after treatment with other agents.

Study details
All participants will receive treatment with GRWD5769 and cemiplimab-rwlc 350 mg. After an initial single dose, GRWD5769 will be administered as an oral capsule throughout the study twice a day. cemiplimab-rwlc will be administered by intravenous infusion of 350mg over 30 minutes once every 3 weeks. Treatment will continue until participants withdraw from the study or their disease progresses.

During the treatment period, participants will undergo study visit for screening and an initial confinement period commencing up to 2 days prior to the first dose until Day 2 of Cycle 1 (minimum of 2 nights). Further confinement periods are required for assessments on Day 14 & 15 of Cycle 1. Participants will also undergo imaging every 56 days for the duration of the study to assess for their response to treatment.

It is hoped that this study will show that GRWD5769 is safe, tolerable, and effective for the treatment of advanced solid cancers. This study will also help to define the dose of GRWD5769 that may be used for treatment of similar individuals in future.
