A Phase Ib Study of PRJ1-3024 for Treatment of Advanced or Metastatic Melanoma

The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of PRJ1-3024 and will determine the recommended dose in China subjects with unresectable local advanced or metastatic melanoma.

PRJ1-3024 is a small molecular Hematopoietic progenitor kinase (HPK-1) inhibitor. It will be evaluated as an oral therapeutic that tests the anti-tumor activity in patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma and has not yet been tested in humans.
