SyB C-0501(Oral Bendamustine) in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

A Multicenter, Open-label, Phase I Study of SyB C-0501(Oral Bendamustine) in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors:

This study is an open-label, multicenter, phase 1 study of SyB C-0501 by continuous daily oral administration in patients with advanced solid tumors, who have previously received anticancer therapy and consists of two parts. Part 1 is a dose escalation study to evaluate tolerability of SyB C-0501 in the patients, and to find the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), recommended dose (RD) and optimum dosing schedule. Part 2 is being done to evaluate safety and anti-tumor activity of SyB C-0501 preliminarily at RD, and to assess its target cancer exploratory.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Intervention / Treatment

Experimental: SyB C-0501; SyB C-0501 (Oral Bendamustine) will be administered orally once a day (specified dose). The treatment period of 21 days (Cohort 1; 7 days of administration + 14 days of observation or Cohort 2; 14 days of administration + 7 days of observation or Cohort 3; 21 days of administration) constitutes 1 cycle. Part 1: dose escalation to determine MTD, RD and dosing schedule Part 2: dose expansion at RD

Drug: SyB C-0501; Specified dose on specified days; Other Names: bendamustine hydrochloride

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure	Measure Description	Time Frame
Identification of Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) and Number of Subjects with DLT in Each Cohort/Level	Based on the number of patients with DLT and administration dose in each cohort, recommended dosage will be defined for the following clinical phase. A DLT is defined as an adverse event that occurred during the Cycle 1, for which a causality with the investigational products (IP) cannot be ruled out and meets the DLT criteria of this study.
