A Study of TYK-00540 in Adult Patients With Solid Tumors

ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is investigating a new treatment called TYK-00540 for adults with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors, which are cancers that have spread from their original site. The main goal of the study is to determine how safe and tolerable this new treatment is for patients. The trial has two stages: one where participants will gradually receive increasing doses of the medication to find the right amount, and another where more patients will receive the treatment at the determined safe dose.

To be eligible for the trial, participants must be at least 18 years old and have specific types of solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. This includes certain types of breast cancer and ovarian cancer. Patients will need to have measurable cancer that hasn’t worsened in the past two weeks and should expect regular check-ups to monitor their health. Participation will involve giving informed consent and adhering to guidelines to ensure safety throughout the study. If you're considering joining, it's important to discuss any medical conditions or treatments you've had recently with your healthcare provider to see if you qualify.

Eligibility criteria

• Inclusion Criteria:

In the Single-agent escalation phase, subjects should fulfill the following criterion at Screening: Histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced/metastatic solid tumors that do not have, failed or intolerated standard of care (SOC).In the single-agent expansion phase, subjects should fulfill the following criteria at Screening: Cohort 1: Histologically or cytologically confirmed platinum-resistant HGSOC (Platinum-resistant: responds at first to treatment with drugs that contain platinum, but then comes back within 6 months period; only female subjects will be enrolled).

Coagulation function: International normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 ×ULN and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) ≤ 1.5 × ULN. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥50%.
• • 7. Willing and able to provide written informed consent approved by institutional review board (IRB) or independent ethics committee (IEC).

• Exclusion Criteria:
• • 1. Known allergy to any excipients of TYK-00540 tablets (for combination-agent escalation phase and combination expansion phase, known contraindications to fulvestrant should also be considered).
• • 2.
