Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

A first-in-human clinical trial to test the investigational treatment ONCT-534 in participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • What are the most tolerable doses of ONCT-534? (Phase 1)

  • Does ONCT-534 have anti-tumor activity at tolerable doses? (Phase 2)

This is a dose escalation and expansion study where participants will receive daily oral doses of ONCT-534.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 1/Phase 2

Detailed Description

This is a Phase 1/2 multi-center study to investigate the safety, tolerability, and anti-tumor acitivity of ONCT-534 in patients with relapsed or refractory metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The study consists of 2 phases: a Phase 1 Dose Escalation and a Phase 2 Dose Expansion.

  • During the dose escalation in Phase 1 a group of participants will be assigned a certain dose level. Once the dose level is considered safe, the next group will be assigned a higher dose level. The dose level may be raised or lowered depending on any safety events that occur throughout Phase 1. There will be approximately 27 participants enrolled in Phase 1. At the end of Phase 1, two dose levels will be chosen to be tested in Phase 2.

  • During Phase 2, participants will be randomly assigned to 1 of the 2 dose levels chose in Phase 1. Approximately 16 participants will be enrolled in each of the 2 dose level groups, for a total of 32 participants.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Dose Level 1: 40mg

40mg of single agent ONCT-534 to be administered daily in oral tablets

Drug: ONCT-534
ONCT-534 is a dual-action androgen receptor inhibitor (DAARI) with a novel mechanism of action that includes inhibition of AR function and degradation of the AR protein mediated by interaction with the N-terminal domain (NTD) of the AR. ONCT-534 has demonstrated preclinical activity in prostate cancer models against both unmutated androgen receptor (AR), and against multiple forms of AR alteration, including those with AR amplification, mutations in the AR ligand binding domain (LBD), and splice variants with loss of the AR LBD.
