Ilorasertib in Treating Patients with CDKN2A-Deficient, Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors
This phase II trial studies how well ilorasertib works in treating patients with solid tumors that usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced) or have spread to other parts of the body (metastatic), and have a genetic change, or mutation, in a gene called CDKN2A. Ilorasertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking enzymes needed for cell growth. A CDKN2A deficiency may cause patients to be especially sensitive to ilorasertib, which may allow it to work better in this group of patients.

- Ability to understand and willingness to sign informed consent form prior to initiation of the study and any study procedures
- Signed informed consent approved by the Institutional Review Board prior to patient entry
Exclusion Criteria
- Patients with CDKN2A wild type by a CLIA-certified laboratory
- Subject has known active central nervous system (CNS) involvement; the subject has untreated brain or meningeal metastases; computed tomography (CT) scans are not required to rule out brain or meningeal metastases unless there is a clinical suspicion of central nervous system disease; subjects with treated brain metastases that are radiographically or clinically stable for at least 4 weeks after therapy and have no evidence of cavitation or hemorrhage in the brain lesion(s) are eligible, providing that they are asymptomatic, and do not require corticosteroids (must have discontinued steroids at least 1 week prior to study drug administration)
- Subject has received anti-cancer therapy including chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, hormonal, biologic or any investigational therapy within a period of 21 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) prior to study day 1

- Subject has had major surgery within 28 days prior to study day 1
- Subject currently exhibits symptomatic or persistent, uncontrolled hypertension defined as diastolic blood pressure > 90 mmHg or systolic blood pressure > 140 mmHg; subjects may be re-screened if blood pressure is shown to be controlled with or without intervention
- Subject has proteinuria defined by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE v 4.0) grade > 1 at baseline as measured by a urine dipstick (2+ or greater) and confirmed by a 24 hour urine collection (>= 1 g/24 hrs); subjects may be re-screened if proteinuria is shown to be controlled with or without intervention

- Patients with another primary malignancy within 3 years prior to starting study treatment with the exception of adequately treated basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma or other non-melanomatous skin cancer, or in-situ carcinoma of the uterine cervix
- Clinically significant uncontrolled condition(s) including but not limited to: active uncontrolled infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris or cardiac arrhythmia (subjects with stable atrial fibrillation are not excluded), history of adrenal insufficiency
- Psychiatric illness/social situation that would limit compliance with study requirements
- Subject has a known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B or hepatitis C
- Subject is known to have poorly controlled diabetes mellitus defined as hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) > 7%; subjects with a history of transient glucose intolerance due to corticosteroid administration are allowed in this study if all other inclusion/exclusion criteria are met
- Any medical condition which in the opinion of the study investigator places the subject at an unacceptably high risk for toxicities
- Subject is unable to swallow or absorb oral tablets normally
- Female subject who is lactating or pregnant
- Subject takes cytochrome P450, family 3, subfamily A (CYP3A) inhibitors/inducers within 7 days prior to the study drug administration

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the response rate (partial response [PR], complete response [CR]) of ilorasertib (ABT-348) (Aurora kinase inhibitor) in patients with cancers harboring CDKN2A deletion or mutation as tumor response. (Part I)
II. To identify tumor types for further development. (Part I)
III. To determine the antitumor activity of ilorasertib (ABT-348) in specific tumor type harboring CDKN2A deletion or mutation. (Part II-Expanded cohort)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of ilorasertib (ABT-348) in this patient population.
II. To assess pharmacodynamics by immunohistochemistry for phosphorylated (phospho)-histone H3 (P-HH3).
OUTLINE:
Patients receive ilorasertib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
