Brief Summary:
This is a multicenter, open-label, Phase 1 study of orally administered VMD-928 in adult subjects with advanced solid tumors or lymphoma that have progressed or are non responsive to available therapies and for which no standard or available curative therapy exists

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Thymic Carcinoma and Thymoma Mesothelioma Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Ovarian Cancer Hepatocellular Carcinoma Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Lung Esophageal Cancer Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma Prostate Cancer Cervical Cancer Gastric Cancer Melanoma Acute Myeloid Leukemia Non Hodgkin Lymphoma Drug: VMD-928 300 mg Tablets or 100 mg Capsules Phase 1

Detailed Description:
This is an open-label, Phase I, FTIH, multiple-dose, dose-escalation and cohort expansion multi-center study conducted in three parts to identify a safe and pharmacologically active dose and regimen for VMD-928 monotherapy, which can be implemented in Phase 2 studies (the RP2D). The regimen will be identified using an adaptive design, multiple-ascending dose study in cancer patients. To conserve patients in the lower dose cohorts, dose escalation will begin with an accelerated titration scheme. A second part of the study will assess antitumor activity at the RP2D. The third part of the study will collect tumor samples before and after treatment to assess biological activity.

Sexes Eligible for Study:   All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Part-1 Dose Escalation [Key Inclusion]:

  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of solid tumor malignancy or lymphoma that is not responsive to standard therapies, are unfit for standard chemotherapy or for which there is no approved or curative therapy.
  • ECOG score of 0 or 1.
  • Able to swallow and retain oral medication.
  • Adequate organ system function.

Parts 2-4 Cohort Expansion Only [Key Inclusion]:

  • Part 1 inclusion criteria.

  • Subjects must either have available archival tumor tissue samples, or consent to tumor tissue sampling prior to the first dose, that is sufficient for IHC analysis of TrkA expression, AND have a tumor or tumor type in one of the following categories:

    (i). Tumors showing a response or stable disease after at least 2 cycles of VMD-928 during Part 1;

(ii). Tumor types associated with high TrkA protein overexpression, i.e.:

  • Thymic carcinoma and thymoma
  • Mesothelioma
  • Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC)
  • Ovarian cancer (especially serous)
  • Hepatocellular carcinoma
  • Squamous cell carcinoma of lung (squamous NSCLC)
  • Esophageal cancer
  • Adenoid cystic carcinoma
  • Prostate cancer
  • Cervical cancer
  • Gastric cancer
  • Melanoma
  • Acute myeloid leukemia
  • Pancreatic carcinoma
  • Non-Hodgkins' lymphoma

(iii). Tumors with documented NTRK1 gene fusions or amplifications, or TrkA protein overexpression, or a tumor which has progressed due to NTRK1 mutation after treatment of a pan-Trk inhibitor (e.g. larotrectinib or entrectinib)

Part 3 Pharmacodynamic Activity only (Eligible subjects in Part 2 may enroll in Part 3):
