Overview

This is a Phase I, open-label, multicenter study of HMPL-523 administered orally to patients with relapsed or refractory lymphoma who have exhausted approved therapy options. This study consists of a dose escalation stage (Stage1) and a dose expansion stage (Stage 2). Dose Escalation Stage (Stage 1) Dosing will begin at 100 mg once daily (QD). A cycle of study treatment will be defined as 28 days of continuous dosing. The modified 3+3 design will be applied for dose escalation and MTD determination to limit the number of patients exposed to potentially ineffective or unsafe doses. The study will enroll 1 patient and the patient will be treated for a 28-day cycle in the initial dose cohort. If there is no Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) and no more than 2 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade ≥2 in the first treatment cycle, the study will be escalated to the next dose cohort and continue with the standard 3+3 design. Otherwise, the trial will revert to a standard 3+3 design from the initial dose cohort. A minimum of 3 patients will be enrolled and observed for toxicity in each successive dose cohort after the initial dose cohort. If the 3 patients initially enrolled in a given dose cohort complete the DLT assessment window (Cycle 1, Days 1-28) without experiencing a DLT, 3 patients will be enrolled at the next higher dose level. If 2 or more of the initial 3 patients enrolled at any dose level experience a DLT during the DLT assessment window, the dose escalation will be halted. If 1 of the initial 3 patients enrolled at any dose level experiences a DLT during the DLT assessment window, additional patients will be enrolled at that dose level for a minimum of 6 evaluable patients for DLT. If a DLT is observed in 1 of the 6 valuable patients at this dose level, dose escalation will proceed to the next pre- defined dose level. If DLTs are observed in 2 or more of the 6 evaluable patients at a given dose level, the dose escalation will be halted. If the dose escalation is completed due to 2 or more DLTs at a dose level and that dose level is ≥50% higher than the previous dose level, then an intermediate dose level may be evaluated for toxicity in the same manner as described above. If the dose level is \<50% higher than the previous dose level, in which only 3 DLT evaluable patients were enrolled, 3 additional patients will be enrolled at that dose level to comprise 6 DLT evaluable patients. The proposed dose escalation scheme comprises Cohorts 1 to 5 with dosing levels of 100 mg QD, 200 mg QD, 400 mg QD, 600 mg QD and 800 mg QD, respectively. The need for dose escalation beyond 800 mg QD, the specific dose to be tested and the potential for twice-daily (BID) dosing will be evaluated jointly by investigators and the sponsor based on the cumulative clinical safety, pharmacokinetic, and preliminary efficacy data. Safety monitoring and evaluation of dose escalation will be carried out by the Safety Review Committee, which will be comprised of the sponsor's study team members (including medical monitor, safety monitor and and Pharmacokinetic scientist) and the site principal investigators. The adverse event profile and serum concentration of HMPL-523 data will be evaluated to determine whether it is safe to continue the assigned HMPL-523 dose for dose escalation or whether the dose should be de-escalated to the lower dose level. Dose Expansion Stage (Stage 2) The adverse event profile, serum concentration, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of HMPL-523 at the maximum tolerated dose(MTD)/recommended phase 2 dose(RP2D) will be further evaluated in approximately 50 patients with relapsed or refractory indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. The tumor types of the dose expansion stage are restricted to: * 10 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma * 20 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma post-BTK exposure * 10 patients with mantle cell lymphoma * 20 patients with follicular lymphoma (Grade 1-3a) * 10 patients with marginal zone lymphoma * 10 patients with waldenström's macroglobulinemia/lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma * 10 patients with peripheral T- cell lymphoma * 10 patients with cutaneous B-cell lymphoma * 10 patients with hodgkin lymphoma Patients will receive HMPL-523 at the MTD/RP2D for continuous 28-day treatment cycles until disease progression, death, intolerable toxicity, at investigator's discretion that the patient can no longer benefit from the study treatment, patient withdrawal from the study, or the end of study, whichever comes first.

Primary Outcomes

Dose Escalation Stage: Number of Patients With Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)

A DLT was defined as the occurrence of any of the following treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) during the DLT assessment window, unless clearly unrelated to the study treatment. AEs were graded using National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0: non-hematologic toxicity: all non-hematologic TEAEs of Grade 3 or greater with the exception of Grade 3 nausea or vomiting controlled by supportive therapy; hematologic toxicity: Grade 4 neutropenia \>5 days, Grade 4 thrombocytopenia or Grade 3 thrombocytopenia with bleeding or which required platelets transfusion, Grade \>=3 febrile neutropenia (defined as absolute neutrophil count \<1000/cubic millimeter with a single temperature \>38.3 degree Celsius \[°C\] or a sustained temperature of \>=38°C for more than 1 hour), Grade 4 anemia not explained by underlying disease; any TEAE that required a dose delay of \>=15 days; any case of Hy's Law.

Time frame: From the first dose of study treatment (Day 1) up to Day 28 of Cycle 1 (each cycle was 28 days)

Dose Escalation Stage: Number of Patients With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events, Treatment Related Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events, Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events Leading to Treatment Interruption, Treatment Reduction and Treatment Discontinuation

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study patient temporally associated with the use of a study treatment, whether or not considered related to the treatment. TEAEs were defined as AEs with an onset date on or after the first dose of study treatment and no later than 30 days after the date of last study treatment administration or start of a new treatment of anti-neoplasm therapy, whichever was earlier. Treatment related AEs were the TEAEs that were reported as related to study treatment by the Investigator.

Time frame: From the first dose of study treatment (Day 1) up to 30 days after the last dose of study treatment, approximately 29 months

Dose Escalation Stage: Recommended Phase 2 Dose of HMPL-523

RP2D was based on the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety, and tolerability assessments in dose escalation stage patients.

Time frame: From the first dose of study treatment (Day 1) up to Day 28 of Cycle 1 (each cycle was 28 days)

Secondary Outcomes

Dose Escalation Stage and Dose Expansion Stage: Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax) of HMPL-523

Blood samples were collected to determine Cmax of HMPL-523. The PK parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis. Eventually, the patients discontinued as they progressed in the study. Hence, fewer patients at each cycle and no patients returned on Cycle 1 Day 28 in dose expansion stage: MZL arm.

Time frame: Dose escalation: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post-dose on Days 1, 15 and 28 of Cycle 1; Dose expansion: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post-dose on Days 1 and 28 of Cycle 1

Dose Escalation Stage and Dose Expansion Stage: Time to Reach Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of HMPL-523

Blood samples were collected to determine tmax of HMPL-523. The PK parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis. Eventually, the patients discontinued as they progressed in the study. Hence, fewer patients at each cycle and no patients returned on Cycle 1 Day 28 in dose expansion stage: MZL arm.

Dose Escalation Stage and Dose Expansion Stage: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve From Time Zero (Pre-Dose) to Time of Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC0-t) of HMPL-523

Blood samples were collected to determine AUC0-t of HMPL-523. The PK parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis.

Time frame: Dose escalation and dose expansion: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 hours post-dose on Day 1 of Cycle 1

Dose Escalation Stage and Dose Expansion Stage: Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve During a Dosing Interval (AUCtau) of HMPL-523

Blood samples were collected to determine AUCtau of HMPL-523. The PK parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis. Eventually, the patients discontinued as they progressed in the study. Hence, fewer patients at each cycle and no patients returned on Cycle 1 Day 28 in dose escalation stage: HMPL-523 800 mg QD and dose expansion stage: MZL arms.

Dose Escalation Stage and Dose Expansion Stage: Apparent Systemic Clearance (CL/F) of HMPL-523

Blood samples were collected to determine CL/F of HMPL-523. The PK parameters were determined by non-compartmental analysis. Eventually, the patients discontinued as they progressed in the study. Hence, fewer patients at each cycle and no patients returned on Cycle 1 Day 28 in dose escalation stage: HMPL-523 800 mg QD and dose expansion stage: MZL arms.
