Molecular Profiling-Based Assignment of Cancer Therapy for Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

This phase II trial studies molecular profiling-based targeted therapy in treating patients
with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or
controlled with treatment. Adavosertib, everolimus, and trametinib are drugs that each target
a specific variation in tumors by blocking different proteins needed for cell growth.
Veliparib blocks an enzyme that helps repair deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damaged by
chemotherapy, which may help chemotherapy drugs work better. It is not yet known whether
testing patients for variations in their tumor and assigning treatment targeting the
variation is more effective than standard non-targeted therapy in treating advanced solid
tumors.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Evaluate the proportion of patients with objective response (OR) to targeted study
agent(s) in patients with advanced refractory cancers.

OUTLINE: Patients are assigned to 1 of 4 treatment regimens corresponding to one of their
mutation/amplification categories.

REGIMEN I: Patients receive veliparib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-7 and
temozolomide PO once daily (QD) on days 1-5. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of
disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

REGIMEN II: Patients receive adavosertib PO BID for 5 doses starting on day 1 and carboplatin
intravenously (IV) over 30-60 minutes on day 1. Cycles repeat every 21 days in the absence of
disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

REGIMEN III: Patients receive everolimus PO QD on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in
the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

REGIMEN IV: Patients receive trametinib PO QD on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in
the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days. Patients with
unacceptable toxicities that have not resolved by day 30 are followed up biweekly until
stabilization or resolution.

Inclusion Criteria:

Molecular Analysis for Therapy Choice (MATCH) study designated Clinical Laboratory
Improvement Act (CLIA) laboratory that a patient has a variant in the genes of
interest

action; for this reason, women of childbearing potential and men must agree to use
highly effective contraception prior to study entry, for the duration of study
participation, and for 3 months after completion of study; because there may be a risk
for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with these

the absence of sperm in the ejaculate); (for female subjects on the study, the
vasectomized male partner should be the sole partner for that subject); use of a
combination of any two of the following:

- Use of oral, injected, implanted or other hormonal methods of contraception

- Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS)

active (acute or chronic) or uncontrolled severe infection, liver disease such as
cirrhosis, decompensated liver disease, and active and chronic hepatitis (i.e.,
quantifiable HBV-DNA and/or positive HbsAg, quantifiable HCV-RNA) are not eligible to
participate; testing for hepatitis B or other infections for eligibility will be
performed only if clinically indicated

intolerability or poor drug absorption (e.g., inability to take oral medication or a
requirement for IV alimentation, prior surgical procedures affecting absorption,
malabsorption syndrome, and active peptic ulcer disease) are excluded; subjects with
Crohn's disease or a partial or complete small bowel obstruction are also excluded, as
are any patients who cannot swallow tablets or capsules whole; tablets or capsules

affect or with the potential to affect the activity or pharmacokinetics (i.e.,
cytochrome P450, family 3, subfamily A, polypeptide 4 [CYP450], P-glycoprotein [PgP])
of any of the study drugs will be determined following review of their cases by the
principal investigator (PI); patients on strong and moderate cytochrome P450 system
inducers or inhibitors are ineligible; every effort would be made to switch patients
off medications that are known substrates of CYP450; if it is medically important for
the patient to remain on such medications, these patients can still be eligible to
participate based on PI discretion

(t-AML)/myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), or with features suggestive of AML/MDS, or who
have had prior allogeneic bone marrow transplant or double umbilical cord blood
transplantation, should not receive veliparib due to reports of MDS and leukemia
secondary to oncology therapy on Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP)-sponsored
studies utilizing veliparib
