Brief Summary:

This phase I trial is to find out the best dose, possible benefits and/or side effects of magrolimab in combination with dinutuximab in treating patients with neuroblastoma that has come back (relapsed) or does not respond to treatment (refractory) or relapsed osteosarcoma. Magrolimab and dinutuximab are monoclonal antibodies that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. The combination of magrolimab and dinutuximab may shrink or stabilize relapsed or refractory neuroblastoma or relapsed osteosarcoma. In addition, this trial may help researchers find out if it is safe to give magrolimab and dinutuximab after surgery to remove tumors from the lungs.

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the safety and tolerability of Hu5F9-G4 (magrolimab) in combination with dinutuximab in children and young adults with relapsed/refractory (R/R) neuroblastoma (NBL) or relapsed osteosarcoma.

II. Determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Hu5F9-G4 (magrolimab) given in combination with dinutuximab in children and young adults.

III. Determine the safety and feasibility of administering Hu5F9-G4 (magrolimab) in combination with dinutuximab to patients that undergo pulmonary resection of metastatic osteosarcoma within three weeks of surgery.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) of Hu5F9-G4 (magrolimab) in children and young adults.

II. Evaluate the event free survival (EFS) in two cohorts of patients who are treated at the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) (measurable relapsed osteosarcoma and patients with pulmonary relapse undergoing resection) and compare to historical controls.

III. Observe and record anti-tumor activity. IV. Evaluate the overall response rate (ORR) of patients in the NBL cohorts (measurable R/R NBL and evaluable R/R NBL) and osteosarcoma patients (measurable relapsed osteosarcoma) in the expansion cohorts treated at the RP2D.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To explore biomarkers of response and resistance including genomic (CD47 expression, Fc receptor [FcR] polymorphisms, SIRPa polymorphisms, and KiR phenotype) and immunologic (dinutuximab HACA, magrolimab ADA, peripheral and bone marrow immune subsets, and circulating cytokines).

II. To explore biomarkers of response in the tumor microenvironment through multiplexed ion beam imaging (MIBI) on resected tissue or archival tissues including comparison of pre- and post- treatment tumor tissues from patients undergoing staged resection of pulmonary osteosarcoma.

OUTLINE: This is a dose de-escalation study of magrolimab with fixed-dose dinutuximab followed by a dose-expansion study. Patients are assigned to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM A: Patients receive magrolimab intravenously (IV) over 2 hours on days 1, 8, and 15 of cycles 1-2 and days 1 and 15 of subsequent cycles, and dinutuximab IV over 10 hours on days 2-5. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

ARM B: Patients receive magrolimab IV over 2 hours on days 1, 8, and 15 of cycles 1-2 and days 1 and 15 of subsequent cycles, and dinutuximab IV over 10 hours on days 2-5. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 12 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with pulmonary osteosarcoma may undergo surgical resection of tumor after cycle 1. After surgery, these patients continue receiving magrolimab and dinutuximab every 21 days for up to 5 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days, at 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 months, and then yearly for 4 years.

Study Description

Brief Summary:

This phase II trial studies the side effects and how well larotrectinib works in treating patients with previously untreated TRK fusion solid tumors and TRK fusion acute leukemia that has come back. Larotrectinib may stop the growth of cancer cells with TRK fusions by blocking the TRK enzymes needed for cell growth.

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine the objective response rate (ORR) of children with infantile fibrosarcoma (IFS) treated with neoadjuvant larotrectinib prior to local control.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine event-free survival (EFS), overall survival (OS), and duration of response (DoR) of children with IFS treated with neoadjuvant larotrectinib prior to local control.

II. To determine the ORR, EFS, OS, and DoR of children with newly diagnosed TRK fusion solid tumors other than IFS treated with neoadjuvant larotrectinib prior to local control.

III. To describe the toxicity of larotrectinib in children with solid tumors and acute leukemia.

IV. To determine the percentage of patients with TRK fusion solid tumors with detectable circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) at baseline and after 1 week, 4 weeks, 24 weeks of treatment, at the time of discontinuation of larotrectinib therapy, and at progression.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the EFS, OS, and DoR of children with TRK fusion solid tumors other than IFS treated with adjuvant larotrectinib following upfront surgery with positive margins after neoadjuvant larotrectinib.

II. To determine the EFS, OS, and DoR of children with TRK fusion solid tumors who experience a complete response to larotrectinib and subsequently discontinue larotrectinib therapy.

III. To determine the remission induction rate for patients with recurrent/refractory TRK fusion leukemia when treated with larotrectinib.

IV. To evaluate the surgical morbidity and extent of resection of initially unresectable tumors in patients with TRK fusion solid tumors who undergo surgical resection following neoadjuvant larotrectinib.

V. To evaluate mechanisms of response and resistance to larotrectinib in children with TRK fusion cancers.

VI. To evaluate the morphologic features of TRK fusion solid tumors at time of initial biopsy to further define criteria for pathologic diagnosis of these tumors.

VII. To evaluate immunohistochemistry for pan-TRK as a screening method for TRK fusion tumors and in resection specimens following neoadjuvant treatment with larotrectinib.

VIII. To evaluate the histologic response to larotrectinib in resection specimens following neoadjuvant treatment.

IX. To evaluate circulating tumor DNA for the detection of the emergence of resistance mutations and recurrence in patients with TRK fusion solid tumors treated with larotrectinib.

X. To evaluate the ratio of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to concurrent plasma concentrations of larotrectinib in patients with leukemia.

XI. To evaluate the change in neurocognitive/behavioral functioning over time between baseline and 2 years post-diagnosis of patients treated on this protocol using parent-reported adaptive functioning (Adaptive Behavior Assessment System [ABAS]-III General Adaptive Composite), executive function (Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function Scales-Preschool Version [BRIEF-P] or BRIEF Global Executive Composite Score), psychosocial functioning (Behavior Assessment System for Children [BASC]-3 Internalizing, Externalizing and Behavioral Symptoms Indices) and quality of life (Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory [PedsQL] Total score).

OUTLINE:

Patients receive larotrectinib orally (PO) or by nasogastric (NG) or gastric tube (G-tube) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 26 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients whose tumors shrink sufficiently while taking larotrectinib may undergo surgical resection of their tumor while on study.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 3, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, and 48 months and annually thereafter for up to 5 years from the date of study entry.

Inclusion Criteria
  • COHORT A: Patients must have a histologic diagnosis of infantile fibrosarcoma with an NTRK1, NTRK2, or NTRK3 fusion identified in a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act/College of American Pathologists (CLIA/CAP) certified laboratory.

Study Description

This study aims to use clinical and biological characteristics of acute leukemias to screen for patient eligibility for available pediatric leukemia sub-trials. Testing bone marrow and blood from patients with leukemia that has come back after treatment or is difficult to treat may provide information about the patient's leukemia that is important when deciding how to best treat it and may help doctors find better ways to diagnose and treat leukemia in children, adolescents, and young adults.

 

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To utilize clinical and biological characteristics of acute leukemias to screen for patient eligibility for available phase I/II Pediatric Acute Leukemia (PedAL) sub-trials.

II. To maintain a longitudinal and comprehensive registry from relapse in children and young adults with recurrent and refractory leukemia.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo collection of blood and/or bone marrow samples at baseline, end of treatment cycle(s), and at relapse/refractory disease status (if applicable).

After completion of study, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 3 years.

Study Description

Brief Summary:

Children and adults diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma patients with primary refractory disease or incomplete response to salvage treatment in bone and/or bone marrow will be treated for up to 101 weeks with naxitamab and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Patients will be followed for up to five years after first dose.

Naxitamab, also known as hu3F8 is a humanised monoclonal antibody targeting GD2

Detailed Description:

Each patient will receive treatment for up to 101 weeks following the first Naxitamab administration. After the end of trial visit, each patient will enter a long-term follow-up where they will be monitored for up to 5 years after first treatment cycle.

Each investigational cycle is started with 5 days, days -4 to 0, of Granulocyte-Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) administered at 250 µg/m2/day in advance of the start of Naxitamab administration. GM-CSF is thereafter administered at 500 µg/m2/day on days 1 to 5. As standard treatment, Naxitamab is administered at 3 mg/kg/day on days 1, 3, and 5, totalling 9 mg/kg per cycle.

Treatment cycles are repeated every 4 weeks (±1 week) until complete response or partial response followed by 5 additional cycles every 4 weeks (±1 week). Subsequent cycles are repeated every 8 weeks (±2 weeks) through 101 weeks from first infusion at the discretion of the investigator. End of treatment will take place around 8 weeks after the last cycle and thereafter long-term follow-up will continue.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Diagnosis of neuroblastoma as defined per International Neuroblastoma Response Criteria
  • High-risk neuroblastoma patients with either primary refractory disease or incomplete response to salvage treatment (in both cases including stable disease, minor response and partial response) evaluable in bone and/or bone marrow.

Study Description

Brief Summary:

This single site, single-arm, non-randomized, dose escalation phase I toxicity clinical trial will assess primarily the safety and secondarily the efficacy of episcleral topotecan in patients with active residual or recurrent intraocular retinoblastoma in at least one eye following completion of first-line therapy.

Detailed Description:

Retinoblastoma is the most common pediatric malignant intraocular tumour and originates from the retina. Treatment of eyes with advanced intraocular retinoblastoma remains a challenge. The historic standard of care for patients with unilateral disease is enucleation and for those with bilateral disease, a variety of modalities have been tried. These include radiation therapy, systemic chemotherapy, periocular administration of chemotherapy, selective intra-arterial chemotherapy, and intravitreal chemotherapy. Unfortunately, all of these modalities are associated with significant morbidity and investigators are looking for new ways to treat these patients either with novel directed drug delivery methods or with new less toxic agents. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of topotecan delivered directly to the eye using a novel sustained-release topotecan episcleral plaque (also referred to as a Chemoplaque) in patients with active residual or recurrent intraocular retinoblastoma in at least one eye following completion of first-line therapy. The study intervention involves the insertion and removal of the Chemoplaque, examinations under anaesthesia (EUAs), visits to clinic to monitor for adverse events throughout, and post plaque removal toxicity evaluation. EUAs, clinic visits and laboratory tests are standard of care for retinoblastoma patients.

Inclusion Criteria
  1. Age. Participants must be <18 years of age.
  2. Diagnosis and Treatment. Participants must have: (i) active residual or recurrent intraocular retinoblastoma in at least one eye following completion of first-line therapy (chemotherapy, systemic or intra-arterial, focal therapy or brachytherapy) or (ii) unilateral Group D retinoblastoma at diagnosis with no previous treatment.
  3. One eye will be the Study Eye. When participants have two eyes with retinoblastoma, the eye with worst disease or best vision potential will be designated the Study Eye. There will only be one eye per child treated in this Phase I study, since treatment of two eyes would double the systemic dose of drug. The Non-study eye will be treated by standard of care, with only focal therapy during the Study Period, if required.
  4. Disease status. Study eye must have vision potential and no clinical features suggestive of high risk of extraocular extension.
  5. Performance status. Lansky play score ≥ 50 if <16 years of age; Karnofsky performance scale of ≥ 50 if ≥16 years of age (Appendix I)
  6. Organ function:

    1. Adequate bone marrow function and platelet count
    2. Adequate renal function
    3. Adequate liver function
  7. Pregnancy prevention. Females of reproductive potential must agree to the use of highly effective contraception during study participation and for an additional 40 days after the end of the Chemoplaque administration
  8. Informed consent. All participants and/or their parents or legally authorized representatives must have the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent. Assent, where appropriate, will also be obtained.
Exclusion Criteria
  1. Disease status. Participants known to have any of the following:

    1. tumour involving the optic nerve rim
    2. clinical or EUA evidence of extraocular extension
    3. evidence of metastatic retinoblastoma
    4. existing neuroimaging showing suspicion of, or definitive, optic nerve invasion, trilateral retinoblastoma or extra-ocular extension.
  2. Allergy. Participants with reported allergy to topotecan, camptothecin or derivatives thereof.
  3. Concomitant treatment. Participants may not receive chemotherapy or other focal retinoblastoma therapy or any other investigational agent within 3 weeks of the placement and removal of the Chemoplaque, nor while the Chemoplaque is in situ.
  4. Uncontrolled intercurrent illness. Participants with known uncontrolled intercurrent illness that, in the investigator's opinion, would put the participant at undue risk or limit compliance with the study requirements.
  5. Febrile illness. Participants with clinically significant febrile illness (as determined by the investigator) within one week prior to initiation of protocol therapy.
  6. Pregnancy and lactation. Females of reproductive potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to initiation of protocol therapy. Due to the unknown but potential risk for adverse events (AEs) in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with the study agents, breastfeeding must be discontinued if the mother is treated on study.
  7. Compliance. Any condition of diagnosis that could in the opinion of the Principal Investigator or delegate interfere with the participant's ability to comply with the study instruction, might confound the interpretation of the study results, or put the participant at risk.

  2. All patients must submit tumour tissue (fresh tumour tissue is recommended) and have pathological confirmation of LGG and determination of BRAF characteristics from the Hospital for Sick Children. Exceptions will be made for patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 who have not previously had a biopsy. NF1 patients are eligible without tissue confirmation but must have definitive clinical or radiographic evidence of tumour progression or risk for significant neurologic deterioration requiring immediate therapy. If a tissue sample for NF1 patients is available from a previous biopsy, it is required to be submitted for Central Review at the Hospital for Sick Children. Please refer to the lab manual for further details.
  3. Patients must have progressive disease following surgical excision based on clear radiological or clinical evidence of progression, or an incomplete excision (< 95% or > 1.0 cm2 residual tumour) with necessity to begin treatment because of a risk of neurological impairment with progression.
  4. All patients on study must have measurable tumour (>1.0 cm2 of residual tissue if resection has been performed) within 28 days of enrollment.
  5. Patients must have received no prior therapy including chemotherapy, biological modifiers and/or radiation treatment for the tumour with the exception of surgery.
  6. Patient is able to start treatment within 14 working days after randomization.
  7. Post pubertal teenagers who are sexually active agree to use two methods of contraception during the treatment period and for at least 6 months after the last dose of study drug. Please refer to Appendix V for a list of acceptable methods of contraception.
  8. Lansky performance status > 50% for patients < 16 years of age. Karnofsky performance status > 50% for patients ≥ 16 years of age.
  9. Patients with neurologic deficits must have deficits that are stable for a minimum of 1 week prior to enrollment.
  10. Patients receiving corticosteroids must be on a stable or decreasing dose for at least 1 week prior to enrollment.
  11. Life expectancy > 2 months at the time of enrollment.
  12. Parents/guardians must provide written informed consent and to agree that they (and the patient) will comply with the study protocol.
  13. Written assent by patient according to institutional guidelines.
  14. Patients must have adequate bone marrow function within 2 weeks prior to enrollment:

    • Hemoglobin ≥ 10 g/dL (may be supported )
    • Neutrophil count ≥ 1.0 × 109/L
    • Platelet count ≥ 100 × 109/L (transfusion independent)
  15. Patients not on a therapeutic dose of an anti-coagulant must have an INR ≤ 1.5 and an aPTT ≤ 1.5x institutional ULN for age within 2 weeks prior to enrollment. Anti-coagulation is permitted prior to enrollment on the condition that the patient is, according to the local clinical practice guidelines or approved product labeling, adequately anti-coagulated prior to enrollment.
  16. Patients must have satisfactory liver function within 2 weeks prior to enrollment:

    • AST ≤ 3x institutional ULN for age
    • ALT ≤ 3x institutional ULN for age
    • Total Bilirubin ≤ 1.5x institutional ULN for age
  17. Patients must have satisfactory renal parameters and meet the following criteria within 2 weeks prior to enrollment :

    • Serum creatinine must be ≤ 1.5x ULN for age. If the serum creatinine is > 1.5 × ULN, the glomerular filtration rate (either estimated or formal) must be >90 mL/min/1.73 m2, for patient to be enrolled.
    • Absence of clinically significant proteinuria, as defined by screening of the early morning urine (urine protein < 1g/L and/or albumin/creatinine ratio < 1.0 (mg/mmol)). If urine protein ≥ 1g/L, then Urine Protein Creatinine (UPC) ratio should be calculated. If UPC ratio > 0.5, 24-hour urine protein should be obtained and the level should be < 1000 mg/24 hours for patient enrollment. Note: UPC ratio of spot urine is an estimation of the 24 urine protein excretion - a UPC ratio of 1 is roughly equivalent to a 24-hour urine protein of 1 g. UPC ratio is calculated using one of the following formulas:

[urine protein]/[urine creatinine] - if both protein and creatinine are reported in mg/dL or [(urine protein) x0.088]/[urine creatinine] - if urine creatinine is reported in mmol/L

Quality of Life Correlative Study Inclusion Criteria (Optional):

  1. Age ≥ 3 and < 18 years.
  2. English- or Spanish-speaking.
  3. No known history of a significant neurodevelopmental disorder prior to diagnosis of LGG (e.g., Down syndrome, Fragile X, William's Syndrome, mental retardation). Patients with NF1 are not excluded.
  4. No significant motor or sensory impairment that would prevent computer use and perception of the visual and auditory test stimuli.
Exclusion Criteria
  1. Children under 6 months of age.
  2. Pregnant or lactating females.
  3. Use of any investigational agent, systemic, targeted or immunotherapy prior to the first dose of study treatment.
  4. Any bleeding diathesis or significant coagulopathy at risk of bleeding (i.e. in the absence of therapeutic anticoagulation).
  5. Patients with evidence of new symptomatic CNS hemorrhage (> grade I) on baseline MRI.
  6. Any significant cardiovascular disease, e.g. aortic aneurysm requiring surgical repair or recent arterial thrombosis, CVAs, transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), and systemic hypertension (i.e., a systolic and diastolic BP ≥ 95th percentile for age, sex), prior history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy or stroke, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia within 6 months prior to enrollment .
  7. Any previous venous thromboembolism Grade 3 or higher (NCI CTCAE v. 4.03).
  8. History of abdominal fistula, GI perforation, intra-abdominal abscess or active GI bleeding within 6 months prior to the first study treatment.
  9. Unresolved infection.
  10. An active peptic or duodenal ulcer.
  11. Major surgical procedure (see Table 3 section 6.1.7), brain surgery, open biopsy or significant traumatic injury within 28 days prior to enrollment or the anticipation of the need for major (elective) surgery during the course of the study treatment.
  12. Intermediate surgical procedure (see Table 3 section 6.1.7) within 2 weeks of enrollment.
  13. Minor surgical procedures (see Table 3 section 6.1.7) within 3 days prior to the start of treatment (including the placement of a central line, including PICC line). Insertion of a port-a-cath will require a 7-day interval prior to the start of treatment.
  14. Non-healing surgical wound.
  15. A bone fracture that has not satisfactorily healed.
  16. Concomitant use of the following:

    • Aspirin (> 325mg/day) within 10 days of enrollment

    • Use of therapeutic oral or parenteral anticoagulants or thrombolytic agents for therapeutic purposes with INR and aPTT outside therapeutic standards according to institutional guidelines within 10 days of first dose of Bevacizumab. Note: The use of full-dose oral or parenteral anticoagulants is permitted as long as the INR or aPTT is within therapeutic limits (according to the medical standard of the institution) and the patient has been on a stable dose of anticoagulants for at least two weeks at the time of the Baseline Visit. Prophylactic use of anticoagulants is allowed.
  17. Hypersensitivity to Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell products or other recombinant human or humanized antibodies.
