Abstract

11514 Background: Ewing sarcoma (ES), a rare bone and soft tissue sarcoma mainly of adolescents and young adults, is characterized by a chromosomal translocation resulting in a fusion oncoprotein. Lysine specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) has been shown to associate with the fusion oncoprotein and promote oncogenic transcriptional activity making LSD1 an attractive target for ES treatment. Seclidemstat is a novel, selective, reversible oral LSD1 inhibitor capable of inhibiting both LSD1’s catalytic and scaffolding functions. This is the first report of an LSD1 inhibitor in a Phase 1 trial focused exclusively on ES. Methods: SALA-002-EW16 is a Phase 1 trial of single agent seclidemstat in patients (pts) with relapsed or refractory (R/R) ES. This report describes the completed monotherapy dose escalation. Pts > 12 years received oral SP-2577 twice daily in 28-day cycles under fasting conditions at the assigned dose level. The primary objective was safety and tolerability. Secondary objectives include to determine maximum-tolerated dose (MTD), recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), preliminary efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics. Results: As of December 30, 2020, 27 pts with R/R ES were enrolled. Pts received escalating doses of SP-2577 at 75 (n = 1), 150 (n = 2), 300 (n = 4), 600 (n = 6), 900 (n = 8), or 1200 mg PO BID (n = 6). The median age was 25 years (range 15–68), 63% were male, and pts had received a median of 3 (range 2–12) prior systemic therapies. There were no…
