Brief Summary:
GTI-4419-202 is a Phase 2 open-label study of the effects of GC4419 (IV) when administered in combination with IMRT and cisplatin to up to subjects with head and neck cancer, who are at high risk for Severe Oral Mucositis (SOM)

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Head and Neck Cancer Oral Mucositis Drug: Drug: GC4419 Radiation: Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) Drug: Cisplatin Phase 2

Detailed Description:

Subjects will receive 90 mg GC4419 per day (60 min IV infusion to complete within 60 minutes prior to IMRT), concurrent with daily fractions of IMRT (2.0-2.2 Gy) to a total of 60-72 Gy over approximately 7 weeks, plus cisplatin administered 100 mg/m2 once every three weeks for 3 doses or 40 mg/m2 once weekly for 6-7 doses (Investigator's choice).

All subjects will be assessed twice weekly for Oral Mucositis (OM) per WHO grading criteria until 28 days post end of study treatment period (last day of IMRT).

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Open Label Active Arm
90mg GC4419 by IV
Drug: Drug: GC4419
GC4419 60 Minute Infusion

Radiation: Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT)
2.0 to 2.2 Gy daily over 7 weeks

Drug: Cisplatin
100mg/m2 once every 3 weeks or 40mg/m2 once weekly for 6-7 doses




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of Treatment Emergent AE's [ Time Frame: First dose of study medication through the 30 days following the last dose of IMRT, GC4419, or cisplatin (whichever occurs last) which is estimated to be 11 weeks ]
    Number of Subjects with at Least One Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Cumulative Incidence of Severe OM [ Time Frame: From start of Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) through approximately 30 fractions which is estimated to be 6-7 weeks. ]
    Cumulative Incidence of WHO Grade 3-4 from the start of IMRT through the end of the study treatment period (last day of IMRT)

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Pathologically-confirmed diagnosis of locally advanced squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck that will be treated with cisplatin plus concurrent IMRT.
  2. Treatment plan to receive a continuous course of IMRT delivered as single daily fractions of 2.0 to 2.2 Gy with a cumulative radiation dose of 60-72 Gy.
  3. Patients who have had prior surgery may be eligible,
  4. Treatment plan to receive standard cisplatin monotherapy administered either every three weeks (100 mg/m2 for 3 doses) or weekly (40 mg/m2 for 6-7 doses).
  5. Age 18 years or older
  6. ECOG performance status ≤ 2
  7. Adequate hematologic function
  8. Adequate renal and liver function Alkaline phosphatase ≤ 2.5 ULN

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Metastatic disease
  2. Prior radiotherapy to the region of the study cancer or adjacent anatomical sites
  3. Prior induction chemotherapy or plans for chemotherapy to be administered only sequentially with IMRT
  4. Planned concurrent chemotherapy other than single agent cisplatin
  5. Receiving any approved or investigational anti-cancer agent
  6. Concurrent participation in another interventional clinical study
  7. Inability to eat soft solid food at baseline for reasons other than mouth soreness after surgery or dental procedures
  8. Complete reliance on parenteral or gastrointestinal tube-delivered nutrition at baseline
  9. Malignant tumors other than head and neck cancer (HNC) within the last 5 years
  10. Active infectious disease excluding oral candidiasis
  11. Presence of oral mucositis at baseline.
  12. Known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or active hepatitis B/C
  13. Female patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding
  14. Known allergies or intolerance to cisplatin and similar platinum-containing compounds
  15. Requirement for concurrent treatment with nitrates or other drugs that may, in the judgment of the treating Investigator, create a risk for a precipitous decrease in blood pressure.
