Background:

Biliary tract cancers (BTC) are tumors in the liver and gallbladder. BTC account for only about 1% of adult cancers worldwide, but two-thirds of cases are not diagnosed until the cancer is advanced. Most people do not survive 1 year after diagnosis. Less than 10% of people with BTC survive 5 years. Better treatments are needed.

Objective:

To test whether an approved drug (binimetinib) added to standard chemotherapy is better than chemotherapy alone in improving the survival of in people with advanced BTC.

Eligibility:

People aged 18 years and older with advanced BTC that has not responded or stopped responding to prior treatment. They must also have a specific genetic mutation.

Design:

Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam, with blood tests, and imaging scans. They may have imaging scans and an eye exam. Participants may need a new biopsy: a small piece of tissue will be cut from their tumor. The sample will be used for genetic testing.

All study participants will receive standard chemotherapy. This regimen, called FOLFOX, includes the drugs 5-fluorouracil, oxaliplatin, and leucovorin. FOLFOX is administered through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein. Participants will receive this treatment once every 2 weeks.

Half of the participants will also take binimetinib. This drug is a pill taken by mouth twice a day. They will write down the times they take their pills in a medication diary.

Imaging scans and other tests will be repeated throughout the study.

Treatment will continue for 5 years. If treatment ends early, participants will have follow-up visits every 8 weeks for 5 years.

Eligibility

General ComboMATCH EAY191 Registration Criteria:

-Patients must be registered to the ComboMATCH Registration Protocol (EAY191).

-Patients must have RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK mutations as determined by the ComboMATCH screening assessment.

-Patients must not have BRAF V600E as determined by the ComboMATCH screening assessment.

-Patient must have disease that can be safely biopsied and agree to a pre-treatment biopsy or have archival tissue available from within 12 months of registration on the ComboMATCH Registration Trial (EAY191).

-Please note the current actionable marker of interest (aMOI)/actionable alteration list for this treatment trial can be found on the CTSU website.

-Please note novel/Dynamic aMOI can be submitted for review per the process described in the ComboMATCH Registration Protocol.

EAY191-A6 Registration Eligibility Criteria:

-Use the spaces provided to confirm a patient s eligibility by indicating Yes or No as appropriate. It is not required to complete or submit the following pages.

-When calculating days of tests and measurements, the day a test or measurement is done is considered Day 0. Therefore, if a test were done on a Monday, the Monday one week later would be considered Day 7.

-Documentation of Disease:

Histologic Documentation:

Participants must have histologically confirmed BTC (IHC, EHC or GBC) that is unresectable or recurrent with a confirmed RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK pathway mutation via any CLIA-certified method. BRAFV600E mutations are not eligible due to other ongoing/upcoming studies in this disease cohort.

-Tumor Tissue Availability:

Tumor tissue must be available:

Adequate archival tumor specimen (obtained within 12 months of EAY191 registration which has not had a RECIST response, CR or PR, to any intervening therapy after collection of the tissue) must be available with formalin-fixed paraffinembedded tumor tissue (blocks or slides)

OR

Consent to a new tumor tissue biopsy which is not a representative target lesion. This lesion must be amenable to a minimal risk image-guided or direct vision biopsy

-A new biopsy is preferred but is not required for enrollment in EAY191-A6 if sufficient archival tissue is available as described above.

-Measurable disease:

Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1. Of note, in the case when a baseline biopsy is done after scans are obtained, a lesion separate from one that is biopsied needs to be measurable per RECIST 1.1. All radiologic studies must be performed within 28 days prior to registration.

-Prior Treatment

--Progression of disease on gemcitabine based first-line regimen ((i.e. only one prior line of therapy is permitted).

--No systemic anti-cancer therapy within 4 weeks of registration to EAY191-A6.

--No prior MEK inhibitor therapy.

--No prior history of treatment with a direct and specific inhibitor of KRAS.

--Patients who only received radio-sensitizing chemotherapy with 5-FU or capecitabine are eligible, but need to have received and failed first-line systemic chemotherapy upon recurrence. Peri-operative systemic 5-FU/capecitabine and/or oxaliplatin, is allowed if it s

been more than 12 months of registration to EAY191-A6.

--No major surgery within 4 weeks (excluding placement of vascular access) of registration to EAY191-A6.

--No minor surgery within 2 weeks of registration to EAY191-A6.

--No palliative radiotherapy within 1 week of registration to EAY191-A6.

-Not pregnant and not nursing, because this study involves an investigational agent whose genotoxic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects on the developing fetus and newborn are unknown.

Therefore, for women of childbearing potential only, a negative pregnancy test done <= 14 days prior to registration is required.

Adequate contraception is needed for at least 30 days after the last dose of binimetinib and breastfeeding should be discontinued for at least 3 days after the last dose of binimetinib. For FOLFOX regimen, 9 months is recommended for contraception after last dose of

oxaliplatin for females of childbearing potential and 6 months for males.

OR

--Calc. Creatinine Clearance >= 50 mL/min, as calculated by the Cockcroft-Gault formula

--Total Bilirubin <= 2.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN); Patients with Gilbert syndrome may enroll if < 3.0 x ULN

--AST / ALT <= 5.0 x upper limit of normal (ULN)

--Hemoglobin >= 8 g/dL, no transfusion within 7 days of 1st dose

--No history of prolonged QTc or at risk for prolonged QTc due to any reason (for example, concomitant medications during or before chemotherapy that may increase the risk of prolonged QTc), uncontrolled congestive heart failure, prior history of class III/ IV cardiac disease (New York Heart Association [NYHA]), myocardial infarction within the last 6 months, unstable arrhythmias, unstable angina or severe obstructive pulmonary disease.

--No active skin disorder that has required systemic therapy within the past 1 year.

--No history of rhabdomyolysis.

--No concurrent ocular disorders, including:

---Patients with history of glaucoma, history of retinal vein occlusion (RVO), predisposing factors for RVO, including but not limited to uncontrolled hypertension, uncontrolled diabetes.

---Patients with history of retinal pathology or evidence of visible retinal pathology that is considered a risk factor for RVO, intraocular pressure > 21 mm Hg as measured by tonometry, or other significant ocular pathology, such as anatomical abnormalities that increase the risk for RVO.

---Patients with a history of corneal erosion (instability of corneal epithelium), corneal degeneration, active or recurrent keratitis, and other forms of serious ocular surface inflammatory conditions.

---Patients with known or at risk for retinopathies, uveitis or retinal vein occlusion.
