TR-002 for the Treatment of Advanced, Unresectable or Metastatic Solid Tumors and Unresectable or Metastatic, Refractory Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

What this study is about

This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects and best dose of TR-002 for the treatment of solid tumors that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced), that cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) and unresectable or metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma that does not respond to treatment (refractory). Chemotherapy drugs, such as TR-002, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. TR-002 may be safe and tolerable in treating patients with advanced, unresectable or metastatic solid tumors and unresectable or metastatic, refractory pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

  • Participants in dose escalation may have measurable and/or non-measurable disease. Imaging for disease assessment of measurable and non-measurable disease must be completed within 28 days prior to registration. Participants in dose expansion must have measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteira in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1
  • Adequate cardiac function, assessed by multiple-gated acquisition (MUGA) scan or echocardiography (left ventricular ejection fraction of \> 50%)

  • Hemoglobin ≥ 8g/dL
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) (\< 3 x ULN in patients with known Gilberts)
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)(serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase \[SGOT\])/ alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase \[SGPT\]) ≤ 3 × institutional ULN (\< 5 x ULN in patients with known liver metastases)
  • Creatinine ≤ 1.5 x institutional ULN OR glomerular filtration rate (GFR) ≥ 60 mL/min/1.73 m\^2
  • For people of reproductive potential: use of highly effective contraception for at least 1 month prior to enrollment and agreement to use such a method through 3 months following the last dose of study treatment
  • Provision of signed and dated informed consent form
  • Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study

Exclusion criteria

  • Lactating or pregnant patients or patients of reproductive potential not willing to use effective methods of contraception
  • Clinically significant toxicities from most recent therapy or intervention prior to study enrollment that have not resolved to baseline or grade 1 (exceptions include alopecia and grade 2 sensory neuropathy)
  • Participant with a history of the following significant cardiovascular disease will be excluded:
  • Participant has a history of myocardial infarction or unstable angina within 6 months prior to day 1.
  • Participant has New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II or greater congetive heart failure (CHF).
  • History of cerebrovascular accident (CVA) or transient ischemic attack (TIA) within 6 months prior to study treatment.
  • Participant has cardiac arrhythmia, complete left bundle branch block, obligate use of a cardiac pacemaker, long QT syndrome or right bundle branch block with left anterior hemiblock (bifascicular block).
  • History of congenital long QT syndrome or prolonged corrected QT interval (QTc) \> 470 msec for females and males using Fridericia's formula (unless a pacemaker is in place or additional clinically non-significant condition such as bundle-branch block necessitating use of an alternate formula per cardiologist calculation) or uncorrectable abnormalities in serum electrolytes (i.e., sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus). An average of triplicate readings for assessing QTc interval may be used
  • Active bacterial, fungal, and viral infection, as documented by positive culture, radiological imaging techniques, septic fever, or septic shock symptoms
  • Known hypersensitivity to 4-aminoquinolone compounds
  • Retinal or visual field changes of any etiology
  • History of psoriasis
  • History of porphyria
  • Known glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency
  • History of seizure disorder
  • Any other condition that could compromise the subject's safety or put the study outcomes at undue risk

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
