A Study of SC-006 in Subjects With Advanced Cancer

Overview

About this study

This is a multicenter, open-label, Phase 1 study in participants with colorectal cancer (CRC), and consists of Part A (dose regimen finding), followed by Part B (dose expansion). Part A (dose regimen finding) will involve dose escalation and possible dose interval modification to define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and schedule. Part B (dose expansion) will enroll additional participants who will be treated with a study drug dose at or below the MTD determined in Part A.

Participation eligibility

Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult age 18 years or older and willing and able to provide written informed consent.
  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced metastatic or unresectable CRC that is relapsed, refractory, or progressive following at least 2 prior systemic regimens in the metastatic setting and for which no further standard or curative therapy exists or is considered appropriate by the Investigator. In addition, subjects with CRC tumors that are microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) should have been previously treated with either nivolumab or pembrolizumab.
  • Measurable disease is defined as at least 1 tumor lesion ≥10 mm in the longest diameter or a lymph node ≥15 mm in short axis measurement assessed by computerized tomography (CT) scan per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1). For dose levels at which single subject cohorts are planned, measurable disease is not required.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
  • Minimum life expectancy of at least 12 weeks
  • Availability of fresh or archived tumor tissue representative of the qualifying malignancy and suitable for immunohistochemistry (IHC) testing. The tumor tissue may consist of an optional fresh biopsy, or a formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) block with enough tissue left to cut at least 10 slides with 4 μm thickness, or at least 10 FFPE unstained slides with 4 μm thickness cut within 2 weeks of shipment. For dose levels at which single-subject cohorts are planned, provision of tumor tissue, FFPE block, or FFPE unstained slides is not required.
  • Subjects with a history of central nervous system (CNS) metastases must have documentation of stable or improved brain imaging for at least 2 weeks after completion of definitive treatment, and within 2 weeks prior to first dose of study drug, off corticosteroids. Definitive treatment may include surgical resection, whole brain irradiation, and/or stereotactic radiation therapy.
  • Recovery to Grade 1 of any clinically significant toxicity (excluding alopecia and peripheral neuropathy) prior to initiation of study drug administration.

    • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥500/μL;
    • Platelet count >140,000/μL;
    • Hemoglobin ≥.0 g/dL;
    • Serum total bilirubin ≤.5× ULN or ≤× ULN for subjects with Gilbert’s disease;
    • Serum ALT and AST ≤× ULN (≤× ULN if evidence of hepatic involvement bymalignant disease);
    • Serum creatinine ≤.5× ULN or estimated filtration rate (eGFR) ≥0 mL/min/1.73m2(using MDRD [Modification of Diet in Renal Disease] formula);
    • Serum albumin ≥ g/dL;
    • Amylase and lipase ≤.5× ULN (≤× ULN if amylase or lipase is isolated with neitherclinical nor radiographic signs of pancreatitis).
  • Last dose of any prior therapy administered before the first dose of study drug:
    • Chemotherapy, small molecule inhibitors, radiation, and/or other investigationalanticancer agents (excluding investigational monoclonal antibodies): 2 weeks before thefirst dose of study drug;
    • Prior therapy with any agents targeting immune coinhibitory receptors (e.g., anti-PD-1,anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2, anti-CTLA-4), or costimulatory receptor activators,monoclonal antibodies, antibody drug conjugates, radioimmunoconjugates, or T-cell orother cell-based therapies: 4 weeks (2 weeks permissible before the first dose of studydrug, if unequivocal PD is documented).
  • If female, subject must be either postmenopausal, OR permanently surgically sterile OR forwomen of childbearing potential (WOCBP) practicing at least one protocol-specifiedmethod of birth control (Section 7.3.3), starting at Study Day 1 through at least 6 monthsafter the last dose of study drug.
  • If the male subject is sexually active with female partner(s) of childbearing potential, he must agree to practice the protocol specified contraception (Section 7.3.3) from Study Day 1 through at least 6 months after the last dose the study drug.
  • Females of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test result at Screening and a predose negative urine pregnancy test on Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1). Females of nonchildbearing potential (either postmenopausal or permanently surgically sterile as defined in Section 7.3.3) at Screening do not require pregnancy testing.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any significant medical condition, including any suggested by screening laboratoryfindings that, in the opinion of the Investigator or Sponsor, may place the subject at unduerisk from the study.

  • Has electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities that make QT interval corrected using Fridericia’s formula (QTcF) evaluation difficult (e.g., severe morphologic abnormalities).
