Title

Dose Escalation Study of NKP-1339 to Treat Advanced Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and maximal tolerated dose of NKP-1339, a ruthenium containing compound administered intravenously on a weekly schedule, in patients with advanced solid tumors. The responses to treatment in this population will be evaluated. In addition, the PD and PK properties of the compound will be explored.
NKP-1339 is a novel GRP78 targeted ruthenium based anti-cancer compound which is intravenously administered. GRP78 is a key regulator of misfolded protein processing, which is unregulated in cancer cells. In nonclinical anti-tumor studies, NKP-1339 showed activity against many tumor types, including those resistant to platinum and other standard anti-cancer agents. This Phase I trial evaluates the safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of NKP-1339.

Drug NKP-1339

NKP-1339 is administered as a 30-90 minute IV infusion (based on volume to be infused) on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28 day cycle.

  • Other names: IT-139

NKP-1339 Experimental

NKP-1339 will be administered in single patient cohorts until ≥ Grade 2 toxicity encountered, at which time cohorts converted to a standard 3 + 3 dose escalation scheme. When MTD is reached, an expanded cohort of up to 25 patients will be enrolled at the MTD.
