Pilot Study of Pidnarulex Pharmacodynamics in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
Summary
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of pidnarulex (CX-5461) in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Pidnarulex is an oral inhibitor of ribonucleic acid polymerase I, with potential antineoplastic activity. It blocks a certain enzyme needed for cell division and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair and may kill cancer cells.
Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE: I. To assess whether pidnarulex induces a Rad51 response, which will be determined by an integral biomarker of percentage of cells with Rad51 nuclear foci in tumor biopsy specimens in patients with and without homologous repair deficiency (HRD) genetic mutations. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the safety and tolerability of pidnarulex. II. To determine the overall response rate (complete responses plus partial responses) in patients with advanced, refractory solid tumors. III. To measure the pharmacokinetics of pidnarulex. IV. To evaluate other DNA damage and repa…
