Experimental: Phase 1 Dose Escalation
NUV-422 will be administered at escalating dose levels until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is reached.
|
Drug: NUV-422
NUV-422 is an investigational drug for oral dosing. |
Experimental: Phase 2 Dose Expansion
NUV-422 will be administered at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D).
|
Drug: NUV-422
NUV-422 is an investigational drug for oral dosing. |
Experimental: Phase 1 Surgical Substudy for Recurrent Glioblastoma
For subjects with pre-planned surgery per standard of care:
All patients will be offered NUV-422 post surgery and recovery, if deemed eligible. |
Drug: NUV-422
NUV-422 is an investigational drug for oral dosing. |
- Phase 1 Dose Escalation: Safety and tolerability of NUV-422 to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) [ Time Frame: During the DLT period (28 days) ]Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)
- Phase 1 Surgical Substudy (GB): Pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of NUV-422 [ Time Frame: Peri-operatively during surgery that is required per standard of care ]Concentration of NUV-422 and its metabolites in tumor tissue
- Phase 2 Dose Expansion Cohort 1 (IDH-WT GB): Objective Response [ Time Frame: Every 8 weeks through study treatment, an average of 6 months ]Objective response rate (ORR) per standard criteria and duration of response (DOR)
- Phase 2 Dose Expansion Cohort 2 (HR+HER2- mBC): Objective response [ Time Frame: Every 8 weeks through study treatment, an average of 6 months ]ORR per standard criteria and DOR
- Phase 2 Dose Expansion Cohort 3 (mCRPC): Objective response [ Time Frame: Every 8 weeks through study treatment, an average of 6 months ]ORR per standard criteria and DOR
- Phase 2 Dose Expansion Cohort 4 (HR+HER2- mBC with brain metastases): Objective response [ Time Frame: Every 8 weeks through study treatment, an average of 6 months ]ORR per standard criteria and DOR, for both brain metastases and breast cancer
