Trial Information

A Phase 1 Dose Escalation Study of MLN8237, an Aurora A Kinase Inhibitor, in Adult Patients With Nonhematological Malignancies, Followed by a Phase 2 of MLN8237 in Lung, Breast, Head and Neck, or Gastroesophageal Malignancies


Following the determination of the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) and schedule (Phase 1),
20 response-evaluable patients in each of the 5 tumor indications will be enrolled (Phase
2-Stage 1). An interim analysis will determine which tumor indications will proceed to
enroll an additional 25 patients (Phase 2-Stage 2) to further evaluate Overall Response Rate
(ORR) and other secondary endpoints.

adenocarcinoma (female patients only); Squamous cell cancer of the head and neck
(HNSCC); or Gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1

- Female patients who are post menopausal, surgically sterile, or agree to practice 2
effective methods of contraception or abstain from heterosexual intercourse
