Phase 1, Multicenter, Open-label, Dose-escalation, Combination Study of Marizomib and Bevacizumab in Bevacizumab-Naïve Subjects With WHO Grade IV Malignant Glioma Followed by a Phase 2 Studies of Single Agent Marizomib and Combination Marizomib and Bevacizumab and Phase 1 Dose-Escalation Study of Enterally-administered Marizomib With Bevacizumab
This is a Phase 1/2 clinical trial to evaluate a new combination of drugs, marizomib (MRZ)
and bevacizumab (BEV; Avastin®), for the treatment of WHO Grade IV malignant glioma. The
study population includes subjects who are in first or second relapse and who have not
previously received any bevacizumab or other anti-angiogenic agent or proteasome inhibitor
for treatment of malignant glioma. Part 1 Phase 1 evaluates the combination of MRZ and BEV,
while Part 2 Phase 2 evaluates single-agent MRZ. Part 3 (Phase 2) includes a combination MRZ
using intra-patient dose escalation, and BEV at a fixed dose. Part 4 Phase 1 evaluates MRZ
through enteral administration, and BEV at a fixed dose.

through enteral administration, and BEV at a fixed dose.
One of the few treatment options currently FDA approved for recurrent WHO Grade IV malignant
glioma is BEV. Additional treatment options are needed for these subjects. Published
literature indicates that targeting the proteasome in glioma cells has shown significant
anti-tumor activity.
MRZ is a novel, second generation proteasome inhibitor that prevents the breakdown of
proteins involved in signal transduction which blocks growth and survival of cancer cells.
In-vitro studies of multiple glioma cell lines were highly sensitive to MRZ. MRZ had
relatively little effect on neural stem/progenitor cells suggesting minimal neurotoxicity
while significantly affecting both malignant glioma stem cells and glioma cell lines.
Parts 1 and 2 of this trial have been completed with the Recommended Part 3 (Phase 2) Dose
established at 0.8 mg/m2. Part 3 of this trial is enrolling at the MRZ RP2D determined in
Phase 1 to assess the combination of MRZ and BEV activity and safety.
Parts 1, 2, and 3 of this trial have been completed with the Recommended Dose established at
0.8 mg/m2. Part 4 of this trial is enrolling.

Inclusion Criteria:
1. Understand and voluntarily sign and date an informed consent document prior to any
study related assessments/procedures are conducted.
2. Males and females at least 18 years of age at the time of signing of the informed
consent document.
3. All subjects must have histologic evidence of G4 MG (including glioblastoma and
gliosarcoma) and radiographic evidence of recurrence or disease progression (defined
as either a greater than 25% increase in the largest bidimensional product of
enhancement, a new enhancing lesion, or significant increase in T2 FLAIR).
4. Subjects must have previously completed standard radiation therapy and been exposed to
temozolomide. Patients must be in first or second relapse.
5. Subjects with archival tumor tissue suitable for proteasome activity and genetic
testing must give permission to access and test the tissue; subjects without archival
tumor tissue are eligible.
6. No prior treatment with MRZ or any other proteasome inhibitors or any other
anti-angiogenic agents.
7. No investigational agent within 4 weeks prior to first dose of study drug.
8. At least 4 weeks from surgical resection and 12 weeks from end of radiotherapy prior
to enrollment in this study, unless relapse is confirmed by tumor biopsy or new lesion
outside of radiation field, or if there are two MRIs confirming progressive disease
that are 8 weeks apart.
9. Subjects with a history of seizures must be on a stable dose of anti-epileptic drugs
(AEDs) and without seizures for 14 days prior to enrollment in patients enrolled prior
to Amendment 2. Subjects enrolled after Amendment 2 is approved with a history of
seizures must be on a stable dose of anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) for 7 days prior to
enrollment.
10. All AEs resulting from prior chemotherapy, surgery, or radiotherapy, must have
resolved to at least NCI-CTCAE (v. 4.03) Grade 1 (except for laboratory parameters
outlined below).
11. Laboratory results within 7 days prior to MRZ administration (transfusions and/or
growth factor support may not be used to meet this criteria):
- Platelet count at least 100,000/mm3
- Hemoglobin at least 9 g/dL
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) at least 1,500/mm3
- Serum bilirubin at least 1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) or at least 3 × ULN if
