An Open-Label Phase 1 Safety and Dose Finding Study of Orally Administered GLIX1 in Adults With Recurrent or Progressive High-grade Glioma
Tetragon Biosciences Ltd
Summary
This is an open-label, multicenter dose-escalation study to be followed by a dose expansion to define the optimal dose of GLIX1 as monotherapy by reviewing safety and tolerability, disease characteristics and pharmacokinetic profiles and preliminary clinical activity in participants with a high grade diffuse glioma that progressed during or recurred after prior standard of care therapies or investigational therapies as clinically indicated. Patients will be treated daily with GLIX1 capsules until disease progression or unacceptable safety.
Description
Glioblastomas (GBMs) are the most common and aggressive primary malignant tumors in adult central nervous system. High-grade glioma almost always recur and/or progress, and upon progression treatment options are very limited with no universal standard therapy established. GLIX1 is a small molecule administered PO (per os, i.e., orally), that targets the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage repair mechanism by enhancing Tet methylcytosine dioxygenase 2 (TET2) activity. Increasing the activity of the TET2 enzyme increases DNA oxidation at 5-methylcytosine residues. Such oxidation is normally proc…
