Study of TRX-920 for Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
Sponsor: TaiRx, Inc.
Summary
The study drug TRX-920 Oral Gel contains SN38, an active metabolite of Irinotecan (CPT-11), which is a widely prescribed anti-cancer drug that has been approved in many countries for the treatment of colorectal and pancreatic cancer. TRX-920 is the oral gel formulation that directly contains SN38 instead of Irinotecan. A series of biology and animal studies have demonstrated that the TRX-920 Oral Gel could inhibit tumor growth with fewer side effects compared to Irinotecan.
Official title: A Phase I, Open-label, Dose-finding Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Preliminary Efficacy of TRX-920 Oral Gel (10 mg and 30 mg) in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

TRX-920 Oral Gel (10 mg and 30 mg)
TRX-920 Oral Gel will be administered orally at a week (BIW) in an 8-week cycle. No food should be taken 2 hours before and 1 hour after taking TRX-920. The dose escalation/de-escalation rules will be based on definitions of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and will be monitored during the first treatment cycle (i.e., the first 4 weeks post the first dose). The starting dose will be 1 mg and the dosing frequency is twice every week (BIW). Subjects will be assigned to a dose level in sequential cohorts based on the order of their enrollment. The dose escalation will follow a 3+3 design and doses escalate from approximately 1 mg BIW, 2 mg BIW, 4 mg BIW, 8 mg BIW, and 16mg BIW and the doses for subsequent cohorts will be determined by Safety Review Committee (SRC). Dose escalation will be stopped till the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is reached or identified.
