Medical Monitor

This is an open-label, multicenter study with a nonrandomized Phase 1 portion and an open-label, randomized, Phase 2 portion evaluating MLN8237 in combination with weekly paclitaxel in adult female participants with advanced breast cancer (Phase 1 portion only) and recurrent ovarian cancer (both Phase 1 and Phase 2 portions).

The drug tested in this study was called alisertib. Alisertib was tested to treat people who have ovarian and breast cancer. This study looked at safety, any anti-tumor effect, and it also determined a recommended dose of alisertib plus paclitaxel to take into further studies. Pharmacokinetic blood samples were studied to characterize any effects on the concentration of each of the drugs when administered together.

The study enrolled 191 patients. Participants with Breast Cancer and Ovarian Cancer received one of the following escalating doses of alisertib in combination with paclitaxel in the Phase 1 lead-in portion of the study:

* Alisertib 10 mg BID + Paclitaxel 80 mg/m\^2
* Alisertib 20 mg BID + Paclitaxel 80 mg/m\^2
* Alisertib 20 mg BID + Paclitaxel 60 mg/m\^2
* Alisertib 30 mg BID + Paclitaxel 60 mg/m\^2
* Alisertib 40 mg BID + Paclitaxel 60 mg/m\^2
* Alisertib 50 mg BID + Paclitaxel 60 mg/m\^2

Once the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/ recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) was determined, participants were randomized to receive the following treatments in the Phase 2 portion of the study:

* Alisertib 40 mg BID + Paclitaxel 60 mg/m\^2
* Paclitaxel 80 mg/m\^2

This multi-center trial was conducted in the United States, Poland and France. The overall time to participate in this study was approximately 5 years. Participants made multiple visits to the clinic, and who did not experience disease progression (PD) were followed off-treatment once every 8 weeks until the occurrence of 110 progression-free survival (PFS) events.

Alisertib (MLN8237) in Participants With Ovarian, Fallopian Tube or Peritoneal Cancer Preceded by Phase 1 Study of MLN8237 Plus Paclitaxel Treatment of Ovary or Breast Cancer

Randomized Phase 2 Study of MLN8237, an Aurora A Kinase Inhibitor, Plus Weekly Paclitaxel or Weekly Paclitaxel Alone in Patients With Recurrent Epithelial Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer, Preceded by a Phase 1 Portion in Patients With Ovarian or Breast Cancer

The MTD is defined as the dose range at which ≤ 1 of 6 evaluable participants experience dose limiting toxicities (DLT). DLT was evaluated according to National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 4.02 and was defined as any of the following events: 1. Grade 4 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia lasting ≥7 consecutive days; 2. Grade 4 neutropenia with fever and/or infection; 3. Platelet count \<10,000/mm\^3; 4. Grade 3 thrombocytopenia with bleeding; 5. Any other ≥Grade 3 nonhematologic toxicity, with following exceptions: ≥Grade 3 nausea/emesis, ≥Grade 3 diarrhoea, Grade 3 fatigue, Grade 3 nonhematological toxicity that could be controlled to ≤Grade 2 with appropriate treatment; 6. Other alisertib-related nonhematologic toxicities ≥Grade 2 that, in opinion of investigator, required a dose reduction or discontinuation of therapy with alisertib.

The RP2D is the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or less. The MTD is defined as the dose range at which ≤ 1 of 6 evaluable participants experience dose limiting toxicities (DLT) within the first 28 days of treatment (end of cycle 1).

An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation participant administered a drug; it does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. A Serious Adverse Event (SAE) A serious is any experience that suggests a significant hazard, contraindication, side effect or precaution that: results in death, is life-threatening, required in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect or is medically significant.

Abnormal clinical laboratory values (serum chemistry, hematology and urinalysis) were reported as AEs if they were considered by the investigator to be a clinically significant change from Baseline or led to premature discontinuation of study treatment, dose modification, or other therapeutic intervention.

Vital signs (blood pressure, pulse rate, and oral temperature) measurements were collected throughout the study.

PFS is defined as the time from the date randomization for Phase 2 participants to the date of first documented progressive disease (PD) or death as assessed by the investigator using both RECIST 1.1 criteria and CA-125 criteria. PD is defined as 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions for measurable neoplastic disease or CA-125 criteria with elevated (\>70 units/mL) levels on 2 occasions. CA 125 progression for participants with normal CA 125 levels is defined as a CA 125 level \> 2 times the upper limit of normal and for participants with elevated values during the trial, is defined as a CA 125 level greater than 2 times the nadir value of CA 125.

Combined objective response rate is defined as the percentage of participants with Complete Response (CR) + Partial Response (PR) as assessed by the investigator according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria 1.1 or response by Cancer antigen (CA) 125 criteria. According to RECIST: CR is defined as disappearance of all target lesions and PR is defined as 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions. CA 125 response criteria is defined as either: A 50% decrease from 2 initially elevated samples; the sample demonstrating the 50% decrease must have been confirmed by a fourth sample 28 days later (a total of 4 samples required) or A serial decrease of \> 75% over 3 samples; the third sample was to be obtained 28 days after the second (a total of 3 samples required).

DOR was defined as the time from the date of first documentation of a response to the date of first documentation of PD or the last response assessment that is stable disease (SD) or better for a participant who started alternate therapy without progression. PD is defined as 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions for measurable neoplastic disease or per CA-125 criteria with elevated (\>70 units/mL) levels on 2 occasions. CA 125 progression for participants with normal CA 125 levels is defined as a CA 125 level \> 2 times the upper limit of normal and for participants with elevated values during the trial, is defined as a CA 125 level greater than 2 times the nadir value of CA 125. A responder that did not experience disease progression is censored at the last response assessment that is SD.

TTP was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the date of first documentation of PD. PD is defined as 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions for measurable neoplastic disease or per CA-125 criteria with elevated (\>70 units/mL) levels on 2 occasions. CA 125 progression for participants with normal CA 125 levels is defined as a CA 125 level \> 2 times the upper limit of normal and for participants with elevated values during the trial, is defined as a CA 125 level greater than 2 times the nadir value of CA 125.

OS was defined as the time form the date of the randomization to the date of death.

At each visit the investigator had to document any occurrence of adverse events and abnormal laboratory findings. Any event spontaneously reported by the participant or observed by the investigator was recorded, irrespective of the relation to study treatment.
