This phase I study in adult patients with advanced solid tumours is designed to evaluate toxicity, drug exposure (pharmacokinetics) and drug action (pharmacodynamics) of a new molecule, PDM08, administered twice a week cycles of 4 weeks. This drug has shown antitumoral activity in several murine cancer models.

About this study

Phase I study, open, dose escalation, in adult patients with advanced solid tumours, to evaluate tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ascending PDM08 doses administered twice a week cycles of 4 weeks.

After checking the safety of the first drug doses, a new dose escalation was proposed and approved by the Ethic Committee and the Medicines Agency.

This clinical trial is carried out in adult patients with advanced solid tumours whose disease has progressed despite standard therapy, or for which there is no standard antineoplastic therapy, or are refractory to it.

In pharmacodynamic non clinical studies, PDM08 presented antitumour activity against different tumour models including, renal, colon, lung, prostate and breast cancer models.

Treatment and study plan

PDM08

Drug

To assess the tolerability and safety of increasing multiple doses administration of PDM08: 560 μg, 1.12, 2.24, 3.5, 14, 28 and 56 mg administered twice a week for four weeks in patients with advanced solid tumours for which there is no standard therapy or they are refractory to it.

Other names: 4-amino-5-oxo-4(pyridinium-1-ylmethyl)proline D-cis, 3S,5R-1-(3-Amino-5-carboxy-2-oxopyrrolidin-3-ylmethyl)pyridinium bromide hidrobromide

Primary outcomes

  1. Number and grade of adverse events by participant related to PDM08.

    Time frame: 6 weeks for each cohort.

    Drug safety will be measured by the number and grade of adverse events, by participant, related to the drug in study (PDM08) in the cohorts studied: 560 μg, 1.12 mg, 2.24 mg, 3.5 mg and 14 mg, 28 mg and 56 mg administered twice a week for four weeks.

    The drug will be administered twice a week for four weeks.

    Safety and tolerability will be measured considering the adverse events occurred, by participant, related with the drug in study, PDM08, at each cohort.

  2. Dose limiting toxicity (DLT)

    Time frame: 6 weeks.

    Drug tolerability will be assessed by determining the DLT. It will be determined for each cohort (increasing multiple doses of PDM08): 560 μg, 1.12 mg, 2.24 mg, 3.5 mg and 14 mg, 28 mg and 56 mg administered twice a week for four weeks). Dose Limiting Toxicity will be considered the dose that produces adverse events of a severity grade 3 or greater, related to the drug in study (PDM08) in the classification specified in the list of Toxicity Criteria of the National Cancer Institute (CTCAE v04.03).
