Summary

This is a phase 1b/2a study including a dose escalation part (Phase 1b) and an extension part (Phase 2a). Both parts will be open-label, multicenter study of OPM-101 combined with the anti-PD-1 pembrolizumab as per standard of care in patients with MM who have been receiving an anti-PD-1-based treatment and have shown resistance to it, as defined by the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) criteria (Kluger, 2020). The objective of the study is to assess whether the addition of OPM-101 will resensitisze the tumour to the anti-PD-1-based treatment. Potential patients will be screened for this study during the period between initial evidence of disease progression on anti-PD-1 treatment and the required radiographic confirmation of disease progression. The intent is to initiate treatment with OPM-101 once the suspicion of disease progression on anti-PD-1-based therapy is confirmed, and the patient has signed the study Information and Consent Form. No anti-PD-1-based treatment should be administered within 4 weeks prior to study treatment initiation. In the dose escalation part (Phase 1b) of the study, two different doses of OPM-101 will be evaluated (75 mg bid and 150 mg bid) in combination with pembrolizumab. Patients will receive the dose and regimen of pembrolizumab, as per the authorised product SmPC, in sequential cohorts using a 3 + 3 design, escalating if 0 of 3 (or 1 of 6) patients experience a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) during the first 6 weeks of treatment and not escalating if 2 of 6 patients experience a DLT. The RP2D of OPM-101 for the second part of the study (Phase 2a) in combination with pembrolizumab will be based on the rate of DLTs, incidence and severity of Treatment-Related AEs (AEs) and SAEs, and frequency of dose holds, reductions and discontinuations. A Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) will assess the safety criteria and make recommendations about dose escalation/de-escalation during the Phase 1b part, and on the RP2D to be used for further patients in the Phase 2a. The selection of the dose level for the Phase 2a will be based on safety and on preliminary PK/PD or even trends of efficacy. The DSMB will also review periodically the data during the Phase 2a and make recommendations about the continuation of the study. The cohort expansion part (Phase 2a) of the study will be conducted once the Phase 1b is completed and a safe and tolerated dose (potentially 150 mg bid) has been determined. Patients will receive daily oral treatment with OPM-101, while taking pembrolizumab for at least 12 weeks, i.e., at the time of the radiographic assessment of the disease for the primary endpoint evaluation. Patients who show a treatment response with Disease Control (CR, PR or SD) at 12 weeks will continue treatment with \[OPM-101 + pembrolizumab\] up to 24 weeks, when the second radiographic disease assessment is performed.

DRUG

OPM-101

OPM-101 will be administered in combination with an authorized regimen of Pembrolizumab. Pembrolizumab will be administered by IV infusion either at a dose of 200 mg every 3 weeks or at a dose of 400 mg every 6 weeks, as per Principal Investigator's decision.

Inclusion criteria 1. Written informed consent provided prior to any study-related procedure. 2. Histologically confirmed, unresectable or metastatic stage III or IV melanoma. 3. At least one measurable lesion per RECIST v.1.1 criteria. 4. Patients with a documented and confirmed Progressive Disease with an anti-PD-1-based treatment given alone or in combination (except combination with an anti-LAG-3 drug). Progressive disease will be determined by the PI based on the SITC v3.0 guidelines. Note: Patients who have been treated with a combination of nivolumab and ipilimumab will also be considered for study inclusion. 5. Patients with no anti-PD-1-based treatment administration within 4 weeks (or 6 weeks for a treatment with pembrolizumab administered with a 400 mg q6w scheme) prior to study treatment initiation. 6. Patients accepting to undergo a fresh biopsy at baseline and after 12 weeks of treatment (for Phase 1b only). * In case a fresh baseline biopsy collection would represent a medical risk for the patient, an archival biopsy could be used, after discussion with the Medical Monitor and the Principal Investigator (PI) * If archival sample is unavailable, and the patient cannot provide a fresh tumour biopsy at baseline due to medical risk or inaccessibility, the patient may still be enrolled if agreed upon between the Investigator and the Sponsor. 7. Male or female patients ≥18 years. 8. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) 0 or 1. 9. Estimated life expectancy ≥3 months. 10. Adequate hematologic parameters and organ function defined by: * white blood cell count ≥3,000/µL * absolute neutrophil count ≥1,500/µL without support of filgrastim * platelet count ≥75,000/µL * haemoglobin (Hgb) ≥9 g/dL (criterion must be met without erythropoietin dependency and without packed red blood cell transfusion within last 2 weeks) * calculated creatinine clearance ≥50 mL/min (Cockroft Gault formula) * serum total bilirubin ≤1.5 x ULN (or ≤3.0 x ULN if documented Gilbert syndrome) analysed using vanadate method. * AST and ALT ≤2.5 x ULN (or ≤5.0 x ULN if liver metastases) * International normalized ratio (INR) ≤1.5 x ULN unless patient is receiving anticoagulant therapy if partial thromboplastin or activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants * Urinalysis negative for haematuria 11.
