Detailed Description

This is a first-in-human clinical trial that will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of TER-2013 as a monotherapy and in combination with fulvestrant and to determine the maximum tolerated/administered dose and preliminary clinical activity. The study consists of two parts: Part 1-Dose Escalation and Part 2 -Dose Expansion.
