Study Description
Brief Summary

Phase 1 |
Detailed Description
This is an open-label, non-randomized, dose-escalation Phase I study of TAS-114 administered in combination with S-1, evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary antitumor activity of the TAS-114/S-1 regimen in patients with advanced solid tumors.
The study will be conducted in two parts: a Dose-Escalation Phase (Part 1) to determine the MTD; and an Expansion Phase (Part 2) to further evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy with the MTD. Patients will receive the study medication according to the proposed treatment schedule until disease progression (PD), occurrence of intolerable side effects, removal by the Investigator or withdrawal of consent. A patient is considered discontinued from study treatment when TAS-114 is discontinued.
Male or female patients age 18 years or older with confirmed advanced solid tumor(s) for which no standard therapy exists.
TAS-114/S-1 will be administered BID for 14 days followed by a 7-day recovery period, every 21 days (1 cycle) in patients with advanced solid tumors.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Dose Escalation TAS-114 (PART 1) Each cycle will be 21 days: 14 days of treatment and 7 days recovery. TAS-114 and S-1 will be escalated according to a defined dosing table and specific DLT criteria. |
Drug: TAS-114
TAS-114 is an inhibitor of dUTPase, a gatekeeper protein in pyrimidine-metabolism.
Drug: S-1
S-1 is an oral antimetabolite; a combination of three pharmacological compounds: tegafur (FT), gimeracil (CDHP), and oteracil (Oxo)
|
Experimental: Expansion phase TAS-114 (PART 2) The TAS-114 and S-1 MTD established in the Dose Escalation Phase will be administered BID for 14 days followed by a 7 day recovery period. This regimen is repeated every 21 days thereafter. Approximately 40 to 60 evaluable patients will be enrolled in the Expansion Phase. PGx, PD and PK analysis will be performed based on specific criteria. |
