  15. NCI MATCH • Identify mutations/amplifications/translocations in patient tumor sample - eligibility determination • Assign patient to relevant agent/regimen • Need to sequence large numbers of tumors and need to have large numbers of targeted treatments • Tumor biopsies & sequencing at progression to illuminate resistance mechanisms – De-identified samples submitted to central labs – Whole-exome sequencing (research purposes)

  16. SCHEMA Stable Disease, Continue on Complete or study agent PD partial until Genetic Actionable response progression Study sequencing mutation (CR+PR) 1 agent detected Progressive Check for additional disease actionable (PD) 1 mutations 2 No Yes No additional actionable mutations, or 1 CR, PR, SD, and PD as defined by RECIST withdraw consent 2 Rebiopsy; if additional mutations, offer new targeted therapy Off study

  17. Eligibility • Patients with solid tumors or lymphomas whose disease has progressed following at least one line of standard systemic therapy (or with tumors that do not have standard therapy) – Exclude histologies that had been approved by the FDA or had shown lack of efficacy with an agent • Tumor accessible to biopsy and patient willing to undergo biopsy • Adults • Performance status ECOG 0-1 • Adequate organ function

  18. Patient population considerations • Target: at least 25% of total enrollment to be patients who have “rare” tumors • “Common” defined as breast, NSCLC, colon, prostate

  19. Statistical Design Statistical Considerations (within each drug-by-mutation category) Primary Endpoint: • Overall Response Rate 5% vs. 25% • One stage design 31 evaluable patients per arm

  20. CLIA lab network • Genetic platform: Ion Torrent PGM Ampliseq custom panel – About 200 genes – SNV, indel, CNV, targeted translocations • Validation within and across sites: same SOP • Selected IHC, FISH • Competitively chosen lab sites: – MDAnderson (Hamilton) – MGH (Iafrate) – Yale (Sklar)

  21. Tumor Biopsy • Prior to study entry a biopsy (4 cores) FFPE, shipped to MDACC • Adjacent section H&E stained, examined by pathologist for tumor content, % necrosis, inflammation, and scanned into high resolution image database • RNA and DNA extracted from the same tissue section • Planned research assays: – If sufficient DNA is available, whole-exome sequencing can be performed for research – RNA will be used for research grade gene expression profiling by either whole-transcriptome or miRNA microarray analysis • Biopsy on progression

  23. Rules of evidence for “actionable” variants • Level 1: Credentialed for selection of an FDA approved drug • Level 2a: Eligibility trial for an ongoing trial • Level 2b: N-of-1 response (with mechanistic basis) • Level 3: Preclinical data with known PK/PD – Selective activity in biomarker-defined model – Functional evidence that alterations in target lead to upregulation & dependence – Functional evidence of pathway activation as consequence of loss of function in tumor suppressor

  25. Logistics • Master Protocol with Multi-arm phase II trials • IND for protocol template – Arms could be added or deleted without affecting other arms • Single agents or combinationsf where recommended phase 2 dose is known • FDA Approved (for a different indication) or investigational agents • Central IRB • 2400 NCTN sites • CLIA lab network: validated assay

  26. NCI: Developing a National Strategy for Precision Medicine • NCI-MATCH Clinical trial (Genotype to Phenotype) – Screen for molecular features that may predict response to a drug with a given mechanism of action • Genomics of Exceptional Responders (Phenotype to Genotype) – Tumor from patients who had an exceptional response to a drug for which predictive biomarkers are not known
