assessment of safety, tolerability and pk profile of msp008-22 in patients with advanced solid tumours

Conditions: Advanced Solid Tumor

Summary: this is the 'first-in-human' clinical trial of the investigational medicinal product (imp), tablet formulation for oral dosing of msp008-22, a molecule (new chemical entity) with anticancer properties.

this single ascending dose (sad) clinical trial is designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single oral ascending doses of the imp in patients with stage iv of advanced solid tumours including but not limited to breast cancer including triple-negative breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, head and neck squamous cell cancer). the trial will also assess the pharmacokinetic (pk) profile of msp008-22 in humans. the safety, tolerability and pk data from this trial will determine the safety of msp008-22 for dosing in humans in further clinical trials. as msp008-22 has shown efficacy in in vitro studies against various cancer cell lines and in prostate and breast cancer cell lines in xenograft studies, the first in human trial of msp008-22 is planned in patients of 'stage-iv of advanced solid tumours (breast cancer including triple-negative breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, head and neck squamous cell cancer and other advanced solid tumors).
