Phase I Dose Escalation Study of VS-5584 in Subjects With Advanced Non-Hematologic Malignancies or Lymphoma

• Assess the safety and tolerability of VS-5584 in subjects with advanced non-hematologic malignancies or lymphoma [ Time Frame: From start of treatment to end of treatment, an expected average of 6 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  Serious Adverse events, Adverse events and their frequency, duration and severity, physical examination, laboratory parameters, vital signs and ECGs as determined based on CTCAE (Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Effects) V4.03. A Safety Monitoring Committee will review safety information.
• Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and schedule of VS-5584 administered to subjects with advanced non-hematologic malignancies or lymphoma [ Time Frame: From start of treatment to end of Cycle 1 (21 day cycles) ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  The RP2D will be determined based on the MTD of VS-5584 as determined by number of participants with dose limiting toxicities related to VS-5584. Observations related to pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and any VS-5584 related toxicities may be included in the rationale supporting the RP2D and schedule and will not exceed the MTD.

• Evaluate the efficacy of VS-5584 [ Time Frame: Every 6 weeks to end of treatment, expected average of 6 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  Response rate and progression-free survival as determined by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST), version 1.1 or by the Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma
• Evaluate the time to new lesion [ Time Frame: Expected average of 6 weeks from start of treatment to end of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
• Evaluate duration of response to VS-5584 compared with duration of response to prior therapy [ Time Frame: Expected average of 6 weeks from start of treatment to end of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
• Examine the pharmacodynamic effect of VS-5584 on target proteins in platelet rich plasma and tumor biopsies [ Time Frame: Platelet rich plasma time points: Day 1, 2, 8, 17; Tumor biopsies time points: Screening, Day 22, and at the time of progression ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  Pharmacodynamic and predictive response biomarkers intended to demonstrate inhibition of the molecular target and determination of the mechanism of action will be assessed in archival tissue and tumor biopsies and platelet rich plasma samples.
• Examine if tumor genetic alterations and/or plasma biomarkers correlate with response to VS-5584 therapy [ Time Frame: start of treatment to end of treatment, an expected average of 6 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  Tumor genetic alterations and/or plasma biomarkers compared with response to VS-5584, as determined by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST), version 1.1 or Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma

• Non Hematologic Cancers
• Metastatic Cancer
• Lymphoma

7. Predicted life expectancy of ≥ 3 months.
8. Fasting blood glucose of ≤ 140 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L).
9. Adequate renal function [creatinine ≤ 1.5x ULN (upper limit of normal)] or GFR of ≥ 50mL/min.
10. Adequate hepatic function (total bilirubin ≤ 1.5x ULN for the institution; AST [aspartate transaminase] and ALT [alanine transaminase] ≤ 3x ULN).
11. Adequate bone marrow function (hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL; platelets ≥ 100 x10^9 cells/L; absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5x10^9 cells/L).
12. Corrected QT interval (QTc) < 470 ms (as calculated by the Fridericia correction formula).

15. Willing and able to participate in the trial and comply with all trial requirements.
16. Subjects must have archival tumor tissue available for mutational analysis. A study specific biopsy can be performed if archival tissue is not available.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Gastrointestinal (GI) condition which could interfere with the swallowing or absorption of study medication.
2. Uncontrolled or severe concurrent medical condition (including uncontrolled brain metastases). Stable brain metastases either treated or being treated with a stable dose of steroids/ anticonvulsants, with no dose change within 28 days prior to the first dose of study drug, will be allowed.
3. History of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, ulceration, or perforation within 12 months prior to the first dose of study drug.
4. Known history of stroke or cerebrovascular accident within 6 months prior to the first dose of study drug.
5. Subjects with known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) (testing not required).
6. Subjects with known active Hepatitis A, B or C (testing not required).
7. Subjects being actively treated for a secondary malignancy.
8. Cancer-directed therapy (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, hormonal therapy with the exception of LHRH agonists for prostate cancer, biologic or immunotherapy, etc.) within 21 days of the first dose of study drug or 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter. Palliative radiotherapy is allowed prior to initiating treatment if associated toxicity resolved to ≤ Grade 1.
