Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include individuals with confirmed solid malignancies who meet specific inclusion criteria and are willing to comply with study protocols.

Probably not a fit

Patients with solid malignancies who do not meet the eligibility criteria or have rapidly progressing disease 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 modular, multi-part Phase 1/2 study evaluates the safety and tolerability of CT7439 in participants with solid malignancies. Initially, it focuses on CT7439 as a monotherapy through a dose escalation approach to determine the minimum biologically active dose and maximum tolerated dose. Participants will be monitored for safety and tolerability, and the study may include additional cohorts for specific sub-populations based on protocol amendments. The study aims to gather data on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of CT7439.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a new treatment option for patients with solid malignancies.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar first-in-human approaches, but the specific use of CT7439 is novel.

Core Inclusion Criteria:

* Histopathologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of malignant disease evaluable by RECIST v1.1
* Provision of signed written informed consent before any study-related activities, willing and able to comply with all scheduled visits, treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedures and willing to permit access to stored historical tumor tissue, prior tumor radiological assessments and tumor biomarker data.
* ECOG performance status of ≤ 2 with no deterioration over the previous 2 weeks.
* Ability to take oral medications and be willing to record daily adherence to the study drug.
* Women either of non-childbearing potential, either confirmed to be post-menopausal or of childbearing potential willing to practice effective contraception for the duration of the study and for minimum 33 days after the last dose of CT7439.
* Sexually active male patients must be willing to refrain from sperm donation from the time of signing informed consent and use condoms with all sexual partners for the duration of the study and for a minimum 93 days months after the last dose of CT7439.
* Estimated life expectancy of at least 3 months, in the opinion of the investigator.

Core Exclusion Criteria:

* Prior therapy with a specific CDK12/13 inhibitor, within any timeframe prior to the first dose of CT7439.
* Participants with any other malignancy that have been active or treated within the past 3 years prior to enrolment, with the exception of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and non-melanoma skin cancer.
* Any unresolved toxicity (except alopecia) from prior therapy of ≥ 2 Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade.
* Active or documented history of autoimmune disease.
* Any current or prior central nervous system metastases
* Active infection requiring systemic antibiotic, antifungal, or antiviral medication within 14 days prior to first dose of study drug.
* Severe or uncontrolled medical condition or psychiatric condition.
* Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, unless the study participant on anti-retroviral therapy for at least 4 weeks (28 days) and has not had an opportunistic infection within the past 12 months prior to enrolment.
* Active hepatitis B virus (HBV) or hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, unless participant with HBV patient is on a suppressive antiviral therapy, or participant with HCV has a viral load below the limit of quantification (LoQ).
* Participant is breastfeeding or pregnant.
* Receipt of cytotoxic and/or non- cytotoxic treatment for the malignancy within 28 days before the first dose of IMP.
* Receipt of corticosteroids within 14 days before the first dose of IMP.
* Receipt of any small molecule IMP within 28 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, before the first dose of IMP.
* Receipt of concomitant medications, herbal supplements, or foods that are moderate or strong inhibitors of CYP3A4, CYP2D6, P-gp, or BCRP within a time period before the first dose of IMP based on the drug's elimination half-life, calculated as 5-7 half-lives (minimum 2 days), except for mechanism-based CYP3A4 inhibitors (e.g., clarithromycin, erythromycin), which require a 14-day washout to allow for enzyme re-synthesis.
* Inadequate hepatic, renal and bone marrow function, receipt of a blood transfusion (blood or blood products) within 14 days before the first dose of IMP.
* Persistent (\> 4 weeks) severe pancytopenia due to previous therapy rather than to disease (ANC \< 0.5 × 109/L or platelets \< 50 x 109/L).
* History of cardiac dysfunction and/or presence of clinically significant cardiovascular disease
* Has received a live virus vaccination within 28 days or less of planned treatment start.
* Receipt of concomitant medications, herbal supplements, or foods that are moderate or strong inducers of CYP3A4, CYP2D6, P-gp, or BCRP within a time period before the first dose of IMP of 14 days, except St John's Wort, which requires a 21-day washout.

Additional Module 1 inclusion criteria:

1\. Clinically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic solid malignancy for which there is no potentially curative treatment option.
