January 12, 2025 updated by: Epigenetix, Inc.

A Phase 1 Study of EP31670, a Dual BET and CBP/p300 Inhibitor in Patients With Targeted Advanced Solid Tumors and Hematological Malignancies

A Phase 1, first-in-human study of EP31670, a dual BET and CBP/p300 inhibitor in patients with targeted advanced solid tumors and Hematological Malignancies

Study Overview

Detailed Description

EP31670 (also known as NEO2734) is a first-in-class dual BET and CBP/p300 inhibitor which has demonstrated antitumor activity in in vitro and in vivo models of human cancer. This Phase I open-label, multi-center, dose-escalation study will assess the safety and determine the maximum tolerated dose of EP31670 administered orally in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer, NUT midline carcinoma and other targeted advanced solid tumors as well as chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), myelofibrosis (MF) and other targeted hematological malignancies.

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

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

Part 1

  • Relapse or refractory castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) following at least one anti-androgen regimen and a docetaxel-containing regimen OR
  • metastatic or unresectable NUT midline carcinoma for which standard curative or palliative measures do not exist; OR

Part 2

  • relapsed or refractory CMML following at least 4 cycles of hypomethylating agent-containing regimen or hydroxyurea unless demonstration of progression or intolerance;
  • advanced MF (intermediate or high-risk) following at least one JAK inhibitor-containing regimen or unsuitable candidates for JAK inhibitor treatments.

Part 3: advanced MF (intermediate or high-risk) with ≤10% blasts in peripheral blood who have not achieved an adequate response or have lost the response to a JAK inhibitor-containing regimen after being on treatment for at least 3 months.

Patients who have other types of relapsed or refractory solid tumors (Part 1) or hematological malignancies (Part 2) with pathological and/or biological features suggesting a potential benefit from dual BET and CBP/p300 inhibition may be enrolled after discussion with and approval from medical monitor and sponsor.

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1 Life expectancy ≥ 3 months Evaluable disease

Adequate bone marrow function:

  • Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL (Part 1)
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500/dL (Part 1)
  • Platelet count ≥100,000/μL (Part 1) or ≥75,000/μL (Part 3)

Adequate renal function: Creatinine clearance (CLcr) ≥ 60 mL/min

Adequate liver function: total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN; alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) ≤ 2.5 x ULN or ≤ 5 x ULN in patients with liver metastases
