Brief Summary:

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of TAS-119 and determine the most appropriate dose in combination with Paclitaxel for subsequent studies in patients with advanced solid tumors.

TAS-119 is a novel, selective Aurora A kinase inhibitor, which has previously been demonstrated to enhance the activity of paclitaxel in preclinical studies


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Advanced Solid Tumors Drug: TAS-119 Drug: Paclitaxel Phase 1

Detailed Description:

Background and rationale for study:

In nonclinical pharmacology studies TAS-119 significantly enhanced the antitumor activity of the microtubule stabilizer paclitaxel and TAS-119 is being developed for use in combination with paclitaxel.

TAS-119 selectively inhibits the kinase inhibitor Aurora A. AurA regulates cell division by controlling the transition from G2 to M phase. Overexpression of AurA is associated with resistance to taxanes.

The study will be conducted in two sequential phases:

Dose Escalation Phase with the purpose to determine the maximum tolerated dose and the recommended Phase 2 dose of TAS-119 given in combination with paclitaxel

An Expansion Phase in which additional patients will be enrolled to further evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of the recommended Phase 2 dose of TAS-119 in combination with paclitaxel, during which a subgroup of patients will be evaluated for DDI between paclitaxel and TAS-119 via PK assessment.

Drug Information available for: Paclitaxel

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: TAS-119

TAS-119 tablets, oral, dose-escalating, 28-day cycle.

Paclitaxel (90mg/m2) is administered IV in combination with TAS-119 in each of the arms.

Drug: TAS-119
Drug: Paclitaxel
A dose of 90 mg/m2 is used in combination with various doses of TAS-119.
Other Name: Taxol




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Safety and tolerability of TAS-119 in combination with paclitaxel [ Time Frame: Safety monitoring will begin at the time of the first dose of TAS-119, and will continue until all patients are discontinued from treatment or until 12 months from the last patient enrolled (up to 3 years). ]

    Standard safety monitoring and grading using National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Version 4.03 will be used.

    The safety and tolerability of TAS-119 will be evaluated by the number and severity of adverse events, vital signs, physical exam, and clinical laboratory assessments.



Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall response according to RECIST guidelines (version 1.1, 2009) [ Time Frame: Computed tomography (CT) scans for tumor imaging will be performed at the end of every 2 treatment cycles (8 weeks) and an average of 4 cycles (16 weeks) ]
    The determination of antitumor efficacy will be based on objective tumor assessments made by the investigator according to RECIST guidelines (version 1.1, 2009).


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Area under the concentration time curve (AUC) [ Time Frame: During Dose Escalation Phase PK blood samples for determination of TAS-119 PK profile will be collected during Cycle 1. In the Expansion Phase, the first 12 patients (DDI Subgroup) will undergo PK sampling in Cycle 1 and Cycle 2 (up to 31 days). ]
    During Dose Escalation Phase PK blood samples will be collected from each arm during Cycle 1 (predose up to 24 hours post-dose). In the Expansion Phase, the first 12 patients (DDI Subgroup) of each arm will undergo PK sampling in Cycle 1 (predose up to 24 hours) and Cycle 2 (predose up to 48 hours post-dose).

  2. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) [ Time Frame: During Dose Escalation Phase PK blood samples for determination of TAS-119 PK profile will be collected during Cycle 1. In the Expansion Phase, the first 12 patients (DDI Subgroup) will undergo PK sampling in Cycle 1 and Cycle 2 (up to 31 days). ]
    During Dose Escalation Phase PK blood samples will be collected from each arm during Cycle 1 (predose up to 24 hours post-dose). In the Expansion Phase, the first 12 patients (DDI Subgroup) of each arm will undergo PK sampling in Cycle 1 (predose up to 24 hours) and Cycle 2 (predose up to 48 hours post-dose).

  3. Time of maximum observed serum concentration (Tmax) [ Time Frame: During Dose Escalation Phase PK blood samples for determination of TAS-119 PK profile will be collected during Cycle 1. In the Expansion Phase, the first 12 patients (DDI Subgroup) will undergo PK sampling in Cycle 1 and Cycle 2 (up to 31 days). ]
    During Dose Escalation Phase PK blood samples will be collected from each arm during Cycle 1 (predose up to 24 hours post-dose). In the Expansion Phase, the first 12 patients (DDI Subgroup) of each arm will undergo PK sampling in Cycle 1 (predose up to 24 hours) and Cycle 2 (predose up to 48 hours post-dose).
