About this study

The study will consist of an ascending monotherapy dose, the doses are pre-defined.

The decision to escalate will be made upon the assessment of safety and tolerability data in the first cycle of treatment.

Module 1 will commence with a 3+3 dose escalation design up to a recommended Phase 2 monotherapy dose. Patients being monitored for dose limiting toxicities at each dose level.

Characterisation of the PK profile, MTD and/or recommended Phase 2 dose will be defined on the emerging data.

Module 2: RXC004 and Nivolumab - Follows a similar 3+3 dose escalation design using RXC004 plus Nivolumab. The MTD and/or Phase 2 dose will be defined based on the PK profile, emerging safety and the appearance of any dose limiting toxicities.

Module 3: Intermittent dose schedules of RXC004 will be investigated. The intermittent schedules will utilize the module 1 dose which was shown to be safe and tolerated when used continuously. Characterisation of the PK profile; Wnt pathway inhibition; incidence/severity of Wnt pathway related AEs and anti-tumor activity will be evaluated at 2 different dosing schedules.

Treatment and study plan

RXC004

Drug

RXC004 is taken orally, inhibits porcupine (PORCN) and interacts with the wnt signalling pathway.

Nivolumab

Drug

RXC004 is taken orally, inhibits porcupine (PORCN) and interacts with the wnt signalling pathway.

Nivolumab is a fully human monoclonal immunoglobulin G4 antibody to PD-1

Primary outcomes

  1. Module 1 - Safety and Tolerability of RXC004 by Assessment of Whether Any Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLT) Arise From First Dose Until the End of 21 Days of Continuous Dosing:

    Time frame: AE data was collected after each cycle and until 30-day follow-up visit after study exit. The DLT period were assessed from the first dose until the end of 21 days of continuous dosing in each cycle until a Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) was identified.

    A DLT was defined as an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value. Haematological toxicity of CTCAE grade 4 or higher for more than 4 consecutive days.

    Time frame: The DLT period will be assessed from the first dose until the end of 28 days of continuous dosing. This will be completed for each dose level until a Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) is identified. Estimated time 12 Months in total

    A DLT is defined as an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value. Haematological toxicity of CTCAE grade 4 or higher for more than 4 consecutive days.

    Grade 3 neutropenia of any duration accompanied by fever 38.5 degrees Celsius or higher.

    Grade 3 thrombocytopaenia with bleeding. Any other confirmed haematological toxicity CTCAE grade 4 or higher. Non-haematological toxicity CTCAE grade 3 or higher.
