Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors confirmed to have the KRAS G12D mutation.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with active brain metastasis or those who do not meet the specific mutation criteria may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This study aims to assess the safety and tolerability of PT0253 in adults with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS G12D mutation. Participants will receive PT0253 as a monotherapy, and the study will determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose. The study will include patients with measurable disease and specific performance status criteria. The goal is to provide insights into the drug's efficacy and safety profile for this patient population.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could offer a new therapeutic option for patients with KRAS G12D mutated advanced solid tumors.
How similar studies have gone: While there have been studies targeting KRAS mutations, this specific approach with PT0253 is novel and has not been extensively tested.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic solid malignancy 2. Participant has a pathologically documented, locally advanced or metastatic malignancy with KRAS p.G12D mutation identified through molecular testing using a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) certified, validated institutional or commercial test. 3. Measurable disease (RECIST 1.1 Criteria). 4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status 0 or 1. 5. Willingness to avoid pregnancy or fathering children from screening through 90 days after the last dose of study treatment. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Active brain metastasis or carcinomatous meningitis. If participants have had brain metastases resected or have received radiation therapy, they may be eligible if: (1) study treatment begins at least 4 weeks from the end of brain-specific therapy, (2) residual neurological symptoms Grade less than or equal to (\<=) 2, (3) currently on stable doses of corticosteroids, and (4) pre-study brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) documents no new/worsening brain lesions. 2. History of any other malignancy within the past 2 years, except: * Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no known active disease present \>=2 years before enrolment and felt to be at low risk for recurrence by the investigator * Basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, in situ cervical cancer, early -stage endometrial cancer that has been definitively treated, superficial bladder cancer, Gleason 6/7 treated prostate cancer, and ductal carcinoma in situ or lobular carcinoma in situ of the breast. 3. Unresolved toxicities from prior anti-cancer therapies (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events \[CTCAE\] grades \>1), except for alopecia. Grade \<=2 toxicities from prior anti-tumor therapies that are considered irreversible may be allowed, provided that they are not described in the exclusion criteria AND the investigator and medical monitor are in agreement to proceed. 4. Concurrent participation in another interventional clinical study. 5. Treatment with anticancer medications or investigational drugs within the following intervals before the first administration of study drug: * At least 14 days for chemotherapy or targeted small-molecule therapy. * At least 28 days for a prior monoclonal antibody * At least 4 months for checkpoint inhibitors * At least 4 months for antibody-drug conjugates * At least 28 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) for all other investigational study drugs or devices. For drugs with very long half-lives, participants may be allowed to enroll prior to 5 half-lives at the discretion of the investigator in discussion with the medical monitor. Note: Concurrent hormonal therapy for prostate or breast cancer is allowable. 6. Thoracic radiation within 4 months of starting study therapy. 7. Significant cardiovascular disease within 6 months of starting study therapy. 8. Active infection requiring antibiotics within 1 day of study treatment. 9. History of non-infectious interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pneumonitis. 10. Known HIV infection with a cluster of differentiation 4+ (CD4+) T-cell count less than (\<) 200 cells per microliter \[/mcL\] and/or a detectable viral load per parameters of assay and/or on an anti-retroviral regimen containing a strong or moderate cytochrome (CY)P3A4/5 inhibitor or inducer and/or on a new anti-retroviral regimen for less than 28 days prior to the initiation of study treatment. 11. Known history of drug-induced liver injury; primary biliary cirrhosis; or ongoing extrahepatic obstruction caused by stones, cirrhosis of the liver, or portal hypertension. 12. Major surgery within 4 weeks of the start of study therapy or postoperative complications preventing the participant from adhering to protocol assessments and procedures. 13. Known hypersensitivity to any of the products to be administered during dosing. 14. Any disease or disorder that, in the opinion of the investigator, may compromise the ability of the participant to provide written informed consent and/or to comply with all required study procedures. 15. Part 1a (Dose escalation): Use of a strong or moderate CYP3A4/5 inhibitor or inducer, strong P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitor or inducer or P-gp substrate. 16. Use of multidrug and toxin extrusion protein 1 (MATE) or MATE2-K substrates that cannot be discontinued prior to the start of study treatment. 17. Participants with laboratory values indicating inadequate hematology, hepatic, or renal function. 18. Clinically significant abnormalities in rhythm, conduction, or morphology of resting electrocardiogram (ECG) or baseline QT interval corrected for heart rate using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) \>=450 milliseconds (msec). 19. Female participants who are pregnant or lactating/breast feeding or who plan to breastfeed while on study through 28 days after receiving the last dose of study drug. 20. Active hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Participants with resolved infection or who are on stable antiviral therapy are eligible. 21. Active hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Participants who have completed definitive antiviral therapy with post treatment confirmation of eradication are eligible.
