Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of RXC004 in Advanced Malignancies

December 18, 2024 updated by: Redx Pharma Ltd

A Modular Multi-Arm, Phase 1, Adaptive Design Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of RXC004, Alone and in Combination With Anti-cancer Treatments, in Patients With Advanced Malignancies

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of RXC004 as monotherapy and in combination with Nivolumab in patients with advanced malignancies. In order to define the doses and schedules for further clinical evaluation.

Detailed Description

The study will consist of an ascending monotherapy dose, the doses are pre-defined.

The decision to escalate will be made upon the assessment of safety and tolerability data in the first cycle of treatment.

Module 1 will commence with a 3+3 dose escalation design up to a recommended Phase 2 monotherapy dose. Patients being monitored for dose limiting toxicities at each dose level.

Characterisation of the PK profile, MTD and/or recommended Phase 2 dose will be defined on the emerging data.

Module 2: RXC004 and Nivolumab - Follows a similar 3+3 dose escalation design using RXC004 plus Nivolumab. The MTD and/or Phase 2 dose will be defined based on the PK profile, emerging safety and the appearance of any dose limiting toxicities.

Module 3: Intermittent dose schedules of RXC004 will be investigated. The intermittent schedules will utilize the module 1 dose which was shown to be safe and tolerated when used continuously. Characterisation of the PK profile; Wnt pathway inhibition; incidence/severity of Wnt pathway related AEs and anti-tumor activity will be evaluated at 2 different dosing schedules.
