Evaluating INX-315 for advanced cancer treatment

A Phase 1/2, Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of INX-315 in Patients With Advanced Cancer

Phase1; Phase2 Interventional Incyclix Bio · NCT05735080

This study is testing a new oral medication called INX-315 to see if it can safely help people with advanced cancers, including breast and ovarian cancer, who haven't responded to other treatments.

What this trial studies

This open-label study aims to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of INX-315, an oral small molecule inhibitor targeting cyclin dependent kinase 2 (CDK2), in patients with advanced or metastatic cancers. The study is divided into three parts: Part A focuses on dose escalation and combination therapy with fulvestrant for hormone receptor positive breast cancer patients who have previously been treated with CDK4/6 inhibitors. Part B expands on ovarian cancer treatment, while Part C investigates combination therapy in advanced breast cancer. The study will enroll patients with specific cancer types who have progressed on standard treatments.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic hormone receptor positive breast cancer or platinum-resistant ovarian cancer who have progressed after prior treatments.

Not a fit: Patients with cancers that are not hormone receptor positive or those who have not previously received CDK4/6 inhibitors may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced cancers that are resistant to current therapies.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies targeting CDK inhibitors have shown promise, indicating that this approach may be effective.

3. Have known intracranial hemorrhage and/or bleeding diatheses.
4. Have visceral crisis, lymphangitic spread, or leptomeningeal carcinomatosis.
5. Have clinically active ongoing interstitial lung disease (ILD) of any etiology, including drug-induced ILD, and radiation pneumonitis within 28 days prior to initiation of study treatment.
6. Resting QTcF \> 470 msec, a history of prolonged QT syndrome or Torsades de pointes, or a familial history of prolonged QT syndrome.
7. Uncontrolled, cardiovascular disease (including hypertension) with or without medication
8. History of other malignancies, except for the following: (1) adequately treated basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin; (2) curatively treated a) in situ carcinoma of the uterine cervix, b) prostate cancer, or c) superficial bladder cancer; or (3) other curatively treated solid tumor with no evidence of disease for ≥ 3 years.

10. Requires treatment with a prohibited medication or herbal remedy that cannot be discontinued at least 2 weeks before the start of study drug administration.
11. Have planned or anticipation of the need for major surgical procedure within 28 days of the first dose of study drug (procedures such as central venous catheter placement, tumor needle biopsy, and feeding tube placement are not considered major surgical procedures).
12. Unwilling or unable to comply with scheduled visits, study drug administration plan, laboratory tests, or other study procedures and study restrictions.
13. Radical radiotherapy within 28 days prior to study entry or palliative radiotherapy within 2 weeks prior to study entry.
14. Systemic anti-cancer therapy within 21 days or at least 5 half-lives, whichever is less, prior to the first dose of the study drug
15. Prior irradiation to \> 25% of the bone marrow
16. Previous high-dose chemotherapy requiring prior stem cell transplant
17. Participation in other studies involving investigational drug(s) within 4 weeks prior to study entry.
18. Known or suspected hypersensitivity to active ingredient/excipients in INX-315 or fulvestrant or abemaciclib.
19. Known difficulty in swallowing or tolerating oral medications, or conditions which would impair absorption of oral medications such as active inflammatory gastrointestinal disease, uncontrolled nausea or vomiting (i.e., CTCAE ≥ Grade 3 despite antiemetic therapy), ongoing gastrointestinal obstruction/motility disorder/active inflammation, malabsorption syndrome, chronic diarrhea, known diverticular disease or previous gastric resection or lap band surgery.
20. Has a serious and/or uncontrolled pre-existing medical condition(s) that, in the judgment of the Investigator or the Sponsor, would preclude participation in this study (for example but not limited to, interstitial lung disease, severe dyspnea at rest or requiring oxygen therapy, history of major surgical resection involving the stomach or small bowel, or preexisting Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis or a preexisting chronic condition resulting in baseline Grade 2 or higher diarrhea)
