NCT03976050

Brief Summary

The study drug, HL-085 is a MEK inhibitor with the potential indication for cancers. It is an oral medication to be given daily. The purposes of this study is to find answers to the following research questions:

  1. 1.What is the highest tolerable dose of HL-085 that can be given to subjects when given orally (by mouth) on a twice daily basis?
  2. 2.What are the side effects of HL-085?
  3. 3.How much HL-085 is in the blood at specific times after dosing and how does the body get rid of the HL-085?

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Adverse events (AEs)

    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal (investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product.

    Duration of the study, estimated to be approximately 24 months.

  • Dose limitation toxicities (DLT)

    A DLT is defined as the occurrence of any of the following AE considered possibly, probably, or definitely related to the IP, HL-085, by the Investigator and/or the Sponsor that occurs during Cycle 1 as described in below: * Any death not clearly due to the underlying disease or extraneous causes; or * Non-hematologic toxicities Grade 3 or higher. * Grade 3 thrombocytopenia with clinically significant bleeding, or other hematologic toxicity at Grade 4 or above. * Neutropenic fever * liver parameter abnormalities * Any toxicity requiring permanent discontinuation of the IP

    During Cycle 1 (the first 28 days)

  • Maximum tolerated dose (MTD)

    MTD is defined as the highest dose level at which DLT occurs in less than 33.3% of subjects.

    MTD will be determined when DLT occurs in great or equal to 33.3% of the same cohort subjects during During Cycle 1 (the first 28 days)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • cMAX

    Duration of the study, estimated to be approximately 24 months

  • Overall response rate (ORR)

    Duration of the study, estimated to be approximately 24 months

Other Outcomes (1)

  • pERK expression

    Duration of the study, estimated to be approximately 24 months

Study Arms (1)

Dose escalation

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects in the dose escalation cohorts will receive ascending doses of HL-085 until the MTD is determined. The first three subjects will receive twice-daily doses (BID) of HL-085 6 mg. Additional cohorts may receive doses of HL-085 9, 12 or 18 mg BID respectively and sequentially. If DLTs are observed in \<33.3% of subjects at the 18 mg dose.

Drug: HL-085

Interventions

HL-085DRUG

HL-085 is a MEK inhibitor with potential indication for cancers. it will be given twice daily continuously in the study until disease progression; or the risks outweigh the benefits, if the subject continues study treatment; or subjects with poor compliance; or subjects need to receive or have already started alternative anti-tumor drugs; or Subjects who need to receive or have already started alternative any other concomitant medication and/or treatment, which would significantly impact their safety; or interruption of IP administration for more than 14 days due to IP-related AEs.
