Feasibility of SM-88 in Pancreatic Cancer After Multiple Prior Lines and ECOG ≤ 2  Pancreatic cancer remains a clinically challenging disease with an 80% mortality rate within 12 months of initial diagnosis (ACS Estimates). Recent clinical trials have shown median overall survival of four to six months with single digit response rates in the second-line setting. (Conroy et al. 2011, Wang-Gillam 2016 1,2 )  The standard of care remains highly toxic chemotherapy regimens (FOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine with nab-paclitaxel) with grade 3 or greater toxicity in over 50% of patients.  Currently, there are no FDA approved treatments specifically indicated for third-line metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma patients. Neither ASCO nor NCCN guidelines recommend any treatment for third-line pancreatic cancer patients who may also be excluded from clinical trials based on performance status and residual toxicity.  SM-88 is a novel anti-cancer regimen that consists of one investigational agent (D,L-alpha-metyrosine {D/L}), and three re-purposed drugs (methoxsalen, phenytoin, and sirolimus).  It is hypothesized that all four, including both isomers of D/L contribute to the anti-cancer properties of SM-88 and are believed to be distinct drugs with independent mechanisms of action.  The high specificity of D/L for cancer cells, and the low doses of the repurposed agents, may contribute to a favorable toxicity profile in this especially susceptible population.

Table 1: Demographics and Baseline Characteristics  Prospective Phase II cohort.  The severity of adverse events (AE) was graded using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 4.03.  The AE reporting period was from the time of signing the informed consent until 28 days after the last dose of SM-88.

Feasibility of SM-88 in Pancreatic Cancer After Multiple Prior Lines and ECOG ≤ 2

 Pancreatic cancer remains a clinically challenging disease with an 80% mortality rate within 12 months of initial diagnosis (ACS Estimates). Recent clinical trials have shown median overall survival of four to six months with single digit response rates in the second-line setting. (Conroy et al. 2011, Wang-Gillam 20161,2)

 The standard of care remains highly toxic chemotherapy regimens (FOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine with nab-paclitaxel) with grade 3 or greater toxicity in over 50% of patients.

 Currently, there are no FDA approved treatments specifically indicated for third-line metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma patients. Neither ASCO nor NCCN guidelines recommend any treatment for third-line pancreatic cancer patients who may also be excluded from clinical trials based on performance status and residual toxicity.

 SM-88 is a novel anti-cancer regimen that consists of one investigational agent (D,L-alpha-metyrosine {D/L}), and three re-purposed drugs (methoxsalen, phenytoin, and sirolimus).

 It is hypothesized that all four, including both isomers of D/L contribute to the anti-cancer properties of SM-88 and are believed to be distinct drugs with independent mechanisms of action.

 The high specificity of D/L for cancer cells, and the low doses of the repurposed agents, may contribute to a favorable toxicity profile in this especially susceptible population.

BACKGROUND RESULTS

TRIAL DESIGN

METHODS

 Tyme-88-Panc (NCT#03512756) is a 2 Part randomized, open-label Phase II of SM-88 in metastatic progressive disease PDAC after at least 1 prior line of chemotherapy, ECOG score ≤ 2 and as little as 2 weeks from prior systemic therapy.

 In Part 1, subjects were randomized to receive one of two D/L oral dosing regimens, 230 mg BID, or 460 mg BID.  All subjects also received oral methoxsalen (10 mg QD), phenytoin (50 mg QD), and sirolimus (0.5 mg QD),

regardless of randomization.  The present study describes the safety analysis from the randomized Part 1 of Tyme-88-Panc. Preliminary efficacy results (poster board A16) and PK data (poster board B15) are presented in elsewhere.

CONCLUSIONSÂ On currently approved therapies for PDAC, approximately 50% of patients may experience

SAEs and almost all patients may experience AEs. In a prospective Phase II trial studying SM-88 in refractory PDAC, only 2 Possibly Related SAEs

were reported. These 2 SAEs occurred in 1 subject. AEs were not increased after stratifying several common risk factors across both doses of SM-

88 studied. In a heavily pre-treated pancreatic cancer subject population with extensive co-morbidities, SM-

88 was well-tolerated. In this preliminary unplanned analysis of AEs by prior lines of treatment and dose level of SM-

88, AEs were not increased in either dose level after any number of prior lines of therapy. Study data confirms the feasibility of treating subjects with ≥3rd line PDAC with SM-88. Subjects on SM-88 did not experience an unacceptable level of treatment related SAEs.
