A Modular, Multi-Part, Multi-Arm, Phase 1/2 Study to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of CT7439 Alone and in Combination With Anticancer Treatments in Participants With Solid Malignancies

NCT ID: NCT06600789Sponsor: Carrick Therapeutics LimitedLast updated: 2025-11-03

Summary

This modular, multi-part, multi-arm, Phase 1/2, FIH study allows the evaluation of the safety and tolerability of CT7439, dosed as a monotherapy and in combination with anticancer treatment in participants with solid malignancies.

Detailed description

This study will initially evaluate CT7439 as a monotherapy in participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid malignancies, i.e., Module 1, which includes dose escalation cohort (Part A). \- Part A of Module 1: a First-in Human dose escalation investigating the safety and tolerability of CT7439 to identify the minimum biologically active dose (MBAD) and either maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum feasible dose (MFD) of CT7439 when dosed as monotherapy. SRC, consisting of study investigators and sponsor medical personnel, will be formed to monitor the safety, tolerability, PK, and PDc data during this part of the study. In Part A, cohorts (maximum 6) will be opened sequentially following review from the SRC who will make recommendations on CT7439 dosage selection for subsequent cohorts. Participants will continue to receive IMP until evidence of disease progression, unacceptable toxicities, the participant withdraws their informed consent or is withdrawn from the study, or completion of the primary study analysis. Further cohort(s) of specific participant sub-populations may be initiated in Module 1 following approval of a protocol amendment.
