Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Number of Participants With Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) (Dose Escalation) [Up to 28 days]
Dose Escalation only: to characterize the dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) of AXT-1003.
- Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) by type, frequency, severity (as graded by NCI CTCAE version 5.0), timing, seriousness and relationship to study treatment. [Baseline up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug]
An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Participants with multiple occurrences of an AE within a category were counted once within the category. Relatedness to study drug was assessed by the investigator.
- Number of Participants with Clinically Significant Change from Baseline in Laboratory Abnormalities by type, frequency, severity (as graded by NCI CTCAE version 5.0), and timing [Baseline up to 30 days after the last dose of study drug]
Laboratory parameters included: hematology, blood chemistry, urinalysis and coagulation. Clinical significance of laboratory parameters was determined at the investigator's discretion.
