A Study of Silmitasertib (CX-4945) in Healthy Subject

December 12, 2024 updated by: Senhwa Biosciences, Inc.

A Dose Selection Phase 1 Study Evaluating the Safety and Tolerability of Silmitasertib

This is a Phase I single center, open-label, parallel design in 30 subjects to evaluate safety and tolerability of CX-4945 200mg QD, 200 mg BID and 400mg BID doses (10 subjects in each regimen) for continuously 5 days in healthy subjects for dose selection.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

COVID-19 is characterized by SARS-CoV-2 induced up-regulation of host protein kinase CK2 that catalyzes phosphorylation of many proteins, modulating their activities in cellular processes. CX-4945 demonstrated anti-viral efficacy in COVID-19 in vitro studies. In CX4945-AV01-IIT(IND 152726), CX-4945 was a safe treatment at 1000 mg BID regimen supported by the fact of no occurrence of treatment related Grade ≥ 3 AE, death or SUSAR. There were approximately 50 % of patients who experienced gastrointestinal disorders of grade 1-2. In CX4945-AV01-IIT, an out-patient study, there were 50% experienced gastrointestinal disorders. To further evaluate the safety and tolerability of CX-4945, this phase 1 study will use lower doses and subjects will be close-monitored to evaluate the safety.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study
