Dose Escalation Study of Safety and Tolerability of AT-406 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors and Lymphomas
Dose Escalation Study of Safety and Tolerability of AT-406 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors and Lymphomas
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety profile and the maximum dose of Debio
 1143 (AT-406) that can be given to humans. This study is also designed to measure how much
 Debio 1143 (AT-406) gets into the blood stream (pharmacokinetics), and how Debio 1143
 (AT-406) interacts with proteins related to cancer that the drug is targeted to affect
 (pharmacodynamics).
Ascenta Therapeutics, Inc. is conducting a clinical trial of the compound Debio 1143
 (AT-406), a small molecule second mitochondria-derived activator of caspase C (Smac) mimetic.
 In vivo and in vitro studies have demonstrated that Debio 1143 (AT-406) induces cell death in
 several tumor models by inhibiting XIAP (X linked IAP), cIAP-1 (cellular IAP-1) and cIAP-2
 (cellular IAP-2), thus releasing initiator and effector caspases to promote apoptosis. This
 protocol is a Phase I, dose-escalation, open-label, multi-center study conducted in patients
 with advanced solid tumors and lymphomas to evaluate the safety, tolerability and
 pharmacology of Debio 1143 (AT-406) in humans when administered orally.
