A study of the experimental drug NMS-03305293 in combination with Temozolomide in adult patients with a type of brain tumor called glioblastoma
Summary description of the study
This is a Phase 1/2 study aimed at learning more about how well the treatment with the experimental drug NMS-03305293 and Temozolomide works and what side effects may occur. If you participate in the first part of the study, you will receive the experimental drug NMS-03305293 and Temozolomide in doses prescribed by your doctor. Both treatments are administered as capsules that must be taken orally once daily. Follow your doctor's instructions. If you participate in the second part of the study, you will be assigned to one of the following treatment arms: the experimental drug NMS-03305293 and Temozolomide or Lomustine as monotherapy.

Intervention under investigation
The experimental drug NMS-03305293 is a potent inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP-1), known to play an important role in DNA repair and is expected to enhance the effect of a chemoradiotherapy like Temozolomide. Your doctor will inform you about the number of capsules to be taken orally once daily.
Temozolomide is a type of chemotherapy that works by preventing cancer cells from forming DNA. DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid and is the genetic material of a cell. If a cancer cell cannot produce DNA, it cannot divide into 2 new cells and therefore cannot grow.
Lomustine is a type of chemotherapy known as an alkylating agent. It binds to one of the DNA strands of the cancer cell, preventing the cell from growing as well as dividing into two new cells.

Disease under investigation
This study is for people with a type of brain tumor called glioblastoma. Treatment for people with newly diagnosed glioblastoma typically includes: - Surgery to remove part or all of the tumor - Radiation therapy with Temozolomide (referred to as chemoradiotherapy) - followed by Temozolomide alone for up to 6 months (referred to as adjuvant treatment) Despite these treatment options, glioblastomas may continue to grow or recur. In this study, doctors want to find out if the experimental drug NMS-03305293 can help prevent glioblastomas from recurring in combination with Temozolomide.

Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Phase 1
1. Histologically confirmed diagnosis of an intracranial diffuse glioma (i.e.
diffuse astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma or glioblastoma). Sponsor may opt to
restrict enrollment based on MGMT status, tumor type, tumor measurability or
apply restriction on time to first relapse.
2. Patients at first radiographic relapse after chemotherapy including
temozolomide as long as no more than 12 cycles of temozolomide were
administered.
3. Patients may have been operated for recurrence. If operated:
- residual and measurable disease after surgery is not required but
pathology must have confirmed tumor recurrence.
- a post-surgery MRI should be available within 48 hours following surgery.
- surgery completed at least 2 weeks before enrolment and patient clinical
status should not be worsened respect to pre-surgery condition
- Backfill cohorts
1. Histologically confirmed diagnosis of Glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype as per WHO
2021 classification, including IDH-wildtype diffuse and astrocytic glioma in
adults if there is microvascular proliferation or necrosis or TERT promoter
mutation or EGFR gene amplification or +7/-10 chromosome copy number changes or
c-IMPACT-NOW 3 definition including diffuse astrocytic glioma, IDH-wildtype,
with molecular features of glioblastoma, WHO Grade 4. IDH1 status must be
assessed locally by immunohistochemistry (IHC). If IHC is performed and is
negative, and patient is < 55 years old, sequencing or a PCR-based validated
test must be performed to exclude other IDH1 or IDH2 most frequent mutations.
Sponsor may opt to restrict enrollment based on MGMT status or apply
restriction on time to first relapse.
2. Patients must have measurable disease and meet standard of care resection, if
indicated, and irradiation, if indicated, with concomitant temozolomide plus up
to 6 cycles of adjuvant temozolomide consistent with local standards of care.
3. Patients may have been operated for recurrence. If operated:
- residual and measurable disease after surgery is required
- a post-surgery MRI should be available within 48 hours following surgery
- surgery completed at least 2 weeks before enrolment and patient clinical
status should not be worsened respect to pre-surgery condition.
- Phase 2
1. Histologically confirmed diagnosis of Glioblastoma, IDH-wildtype as per WHO

mutation or EGFR gene amplification or +7/-10 chromosome copy number changes or
c-IMPACTNOW 3 definition including diffuse astrocytic glioma, IDH-wildtype,
with molecular features of glioblastoma, WHO Grade 4. IDH1 status must be
assessed locally by immunohistochemistry (IHC). If IHC is performed and is
negative, and patient is < 55 years old, sequencing or a PCR-based validated
test must be performed to exclude other IDH1 or IDH2 most frequent mutations.
Sponsor may opt to restrict enrollment based on MGMT status or apply
restriction on time to first relapse.
2. Patients must have measurable disease at first radiographic relapse after
initial standard therapy including temozolomide as long as no more than 6
cycles of adjuvant temozolomide were administered and provided that patient
completed standard of care concurrent temozolomide and the radiation therapy
multiple surgeries are allowed as long as patient is at first relapse and TMZ
was administered as standard of care.
3. Patients may have been operated for recurrence. If operated:
- residual and measurable disease after surgery is required
- a post-surgery MRI should be available within 48 hours following surgery
- surgery completed at least 2 weeks before enrolment and patient clinical
status should not be worsened respect to pre-surgery condition.

Protocol
15. Patients must use highly effective contraception or true abstinence. Female
patients of childbearing potential must agree to use effective contraception or
abstinence during the period of therapy and in the following 6 months plus 5x

NMS-03305293 a potential CYP3A perpetrator, hormonal contraception may lose efficacy
while on treatment with NMS-03305293, therefore this should be taken into account.
Male patients must be surgically sterile or must agree to use highly effective
contraception or true abstinence during the period of therapy and in the following
90 days plus 5x NMS-03305293 half-life (3 days) after discontinuation of study

Exclusion Criteria:
1. Current enrollment in another interventional clinical trial.
2. Current treatment with other anticancer agents or devices, or treatment at
recurrence with carmustine wafer implants and proteasome inhibitors.
3. Previous treatment with PCV (procarbazine, lomustine and vincristine) or any of its
