For Conducting Clinical Trials Using Selinexor (Nsc 781780) REQUEST FOR PROJECT TEAM MEMBER APPLICATIONS FOR CONDUCTING CLINICAL TRIALS USING SELINEXOR (NSC 781780) The National Cancer Institute (NCI) Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP) is accepting Project Team Member Applications for a project using selinexor, a selective small-molecule inhibitor of the nuclear export protein XPO1 being developed by CTEP as an anticancer agent in collaboration with Karyopharm Therapeutics. Selinexor inhibits nuclear export by binding the nuclear export protein XPO1, leading to the accumulation of tumor suppressor proteins in the cell nucleus. This is believed to reinitiate and amplify their tumor suppressor function and is believed to lead to the selective induction of apoptosis in cancer cells, while largely sparing normal cells; the precise mechanism by which XPO1 inhibition leads to cancer cell death is uncertain. Selinexor (XPOVIO) is approved for treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and, in combination with dexamethasone, for treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. At the present time, the preliminary CTEP drug development plan is for Phase I development of combinations of selinexor with venetoclax, venetoclax plus DNA methyltransferase inhibitors, and venetoclax plus flt-3 inhibitors in myeloid malignancy; Phase I combinations of selinexor with proteasome inhibitors in soft tissue sarcomas, and Phase I combinations of selinexor with temozolomide in glioblastoma multiforme. Preclinical models suggest synergistic activity of these combinations in these disease settings. The role of the project team is to evaluate all available evidence to modify and refine this initial plan or suggest an alternative project. It is anticipated that CTEP will activate 3 – 6 different combination trials with selinexor. The project team will include: 1. Clinician Scientists with expertise in phase I and II studies and with an interest in myeloid malignancies, sarcoma, and glioblastoma (fill out Part A of the attached Application; Clinician Scientists must belong to a qualifying NCI grant funded institution as defined at the end of this letter); 2. Translational scientists with an interest in biomarker development in nuclear export, tumor suppressor genes and/or apoptosis, and acquired mechanisms of resistance (fill out Part B of the attached Application and see the submission instructions at the end of this letter); and 3. Basic scientists with expertise in nuclear export and mechanisms of carcinogenesis or apotosis (fill out Part C of the attached Application and see the submission instructions at the end of this letter). Prospective team members may apply for multiple roles using a single application form by completing all the appropriate Parts. The project team will be recruited nationally and will prioritize the research questions regarding selinexor in combination trials, including prioritization of biomarker studies. It is anticipated that the clinicians on the drug project team will be tasked with writing the Letters of Intent describing the study design, based upon the team’s recommendations, for CTEP approval, and that these clinicians will ultimately lead the clinical studies. It is also anticipated that other extramural members of the drug project team will stay involved in the subsequent design and execution of the proposed trials. It is anticipated that the project team will complete its work in 6 – 8 weeks or less. Background/Rationale Exportin 1 (XPO1) is the major nuclear export protein of tumor suppressor proteins (TSPs; e.g., p53, pRb, IκB, p27, p21, FOXOs) and eIF4E-bound proto-oncogene mRNAs (e.g., c-Myc, Bcl2, Bcl6, BclxL). Elevated XPO1 expression inactivates TSPs by mislocalization, enhances proto-oncoprotein translation, and correlates with poor patient prognosis in a variety of cancers, including multiple myeloma, soft tissue sarcoma, and glioblastoma. Mechanism of Action Selinexor is an oral small-molecule selective inhibitor of XPO1. This inhibition leads to the accumulation and reactivation of TSPs in the cell nucleus and is also associated with blockage of proto-oncoprotein translation and of DNA damage repair. Ultimately, inhibition of XPO1 by selinexor is believed to lead to the selective induction of apoptosis in cancer cells, while largely sparing normal cells. Synergy has been reported in vitro and in vivo in combination studies of selinexor plus DNA damage-inducing therapies, proteasome inhibitors, and conventional chemotherapy. Nonclinical Studies of Selinexor and Analogues Selinexor and/or its congeners have shown broad anti-tumor activity in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines and murine xenograft models of AML and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), both as single agents and in combination with sorafenib, quizartinib, nutlin-3a, venetoclax, decitabine, temozolomide, and radiation. In in vitro AML models, selinexor treatment led to reductions of flt-3, c- kit and MCL-1 expression; enhanced therapeutic index in killing AML cells versus normal hematopoietic cells; and AML cell differentiation. In xenograft models of AML and diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), combinations of selinexor with venetoclax synergized. In vitro augmentation of activity with MDM2 inhibition was demonstrated in p53 wild-type AML. In flt-3 ITD AML xenografts, flt-3 inhibitors augmented activity; synergy was particularly impressive with quizartinib. In animal models of glioblastoma multiforme, addition of selinexor to radiation alone improved survival, and selinexor synergized with temozolomide in inhibition of tumor growth. Selinexor appears to be particularly active against NPM-1 mutated leukemia: selinexor restored nuclear localization of the cytoplasmically mis-localized mutant NPM1 protein and restored HOX expression programs. In multiple myeloma, selinexor inhibited bone marrow stromal cell protection and osteoclast differentiation. Clinical Studies of Selinexor Selinexor (XPOVIO) has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and, in combination with dexamethasone, for treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma. Clinical trials are currently testing Selinexor in Phase II and III clinical development, alone or in combination regimens, for the treatment of patients with liposarcoma, endometrial cancer, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and glioblastoma.

ODAC Briefing Document Selinexor (KPT-330) 26 February 2019 Meeting 1. Executive Summary Karyopharm Therapeutics, Inc (Karyopharm) is seeking approval of selinexor, an oral, first-in class, exportin 1 (XPO1) inhibitor, in combination with low-dose dexamethasone for the treatment of patients with relapsed refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) who have received at least 3 prior therapies and whose disease is refractory to at least 1 proteasome inhibitor (PI), at least 1 immunomodulatory imide drug (IMiD), and an anti- CD38 monoclonal antibody (mAb). This disease is referred to as “triple-class refractory” multiple myeloma (MM), and patients with this disease have exhausted all treatment options known to be effective. Selinexor has a unique mechanism of action that offers a new pathway for treating RRMM by selectively inhibiting XPO1, reactivating tumor suppressing proteins, and inducing tumor cell apoptosis. It is a slowly reversible covalent inhibitor of XPO1 dosed orally twice weekly. Selinexor in combination with low-dose dexamethasone (Sel+dex) produces clinically meaningful responses in patients with triple-class refractory MM who have exhausted all effective treatment options. Karyopharm has submitted a New Drug Application (NDA) for selinexor using the Accelerated Approval regulatory pathway, which allows drugs for serious conditions that fill an unmet medical need to be approved based on a surrogate endpoint (overall response rate; ORR) that is reasonably likely to predict a clinical benefit.

  • The Potential of XPO1 Inhibitors As a Game Changer in Relapsed/Refractory Hematologic Malignancies
    Aging Pathobiology and Therapeutics 2020; 2(2):109-113 109 DOI: 10.31491/APT.2020.06.023 BRIEF Creative Commons 4.0 The potential of XPO1 inhibitors as a game changer in relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies Henan Wanga, Jing Yanga, Liang Wanga,* a Department of Hematology, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing 100730, China. Abstract XPO1 is a transporter receptor protein that transports leucine-rich proteins from the nucleus into the cyto- plasm through the nuclear pore complex. In hematologic malignancies, XPO1 is often overexpressed, leading to abnormal regulation of cell growth and apoptosis or abnormal cell cycle regulation. Therefore, XPO1 inhibi- tors can be used as targeted drugs to block the transport of overexpressed XPO1, thus treating hematologic malignancies. We summarized the use of XPO1 inhibitors in clinical studies according to different hematologic Keywords: XPO1 inhibitor, hematologic malignancies, selinexor, targeted therapy malignancies and reviewed their efficacy and toxicity.
