Breast Cancer Colorectal Cancer Cholangiocellular Carcinoma Sarcoma Desmoid Tumour Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma Non-hodgkin Lymphoma Glomus Tumor, Malignant | Drug: CB-103 | Phase 1 Phase 2 |
This Phase I/IIA, open label, multicenter, dose escalation study of CB-103 in patients with Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumours and Haematological Malignancies. After providing signed informed consent, patients will be screened for entry into the study. The study will be conducted in 2 stages: dose escalation in Part A of the study followed by dose expansion in Part B (Phase IIA).
Escalation cohorts will receive repeat doses of CB-103 to determine the MTD and RP2D.
CB-103 will be administered orally on a once-daily schedule, based on a 28-day treatment cycle. Aim of the expansion Phase IIA, Part B of the study will be to collect preliminary evidence of anti-tumour activity.
