A Study to Evaluate PEEL-224 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
What this study is about
This is a first-in-human, gradually increasing doses, repeat-dose, multi-center, where both patients and doctors know the treatment given study evaluating safety, tolerability, PK, and preliminary antitumor activity of PEEL-224 in patients with advanced solid tumors.

This is a first-in-human, dose escalation, repeat-dose, multi-center, open-label study evaluating safety, tolerability, PK, and preliminary antitumor activity of PEEL-224 in patients with advanced solid tumors.
Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- Have a diagnosis of colorectal cancer confirmed by local pathology review (histology or cytology) - Part 2 only
- ECOG of 0 or 1
- Have a diagnosis of advanced or metastatic solid tumor that has progressed after prior standard therapy, have been intolerant or ineligible for standard therapy, or have a malignancy for which there is no approved therapy considered standard of care
- Have at least 1 documented measurable lesion as detected by radiological methods at study entry as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors v1.1
- Have adequate bone marrow reserve
- Have adequate liver function
- Have adequate renal function
- Have completed prior anticancer therapy, including investigational agents, ≥28 days or 5 half lives, whichever is shorter, prior to study treatment
- Have resolution of any clinically significant toxic effects of prior therapy
Exclusion criteria
- Have primary central nervous system tumors
- Have brain or spinal metastases, except if treated by surgery, surgery plus focal radiotherapy, or radiotherapy alone, with no evidence of progression or hemorrhage ≤14 days prior to the first dose of PEEL-224. Have craniospinal radiotherapy ≤12 weeks prior to the first dose of PEEL-224
- Have significant abnormalities in the level of serum electrolytes
- Have received neutrophil growth factor support ≤14 days prior to the first dose of PEEL 224
- Have an active infection ≤14 days prior to the first dose of PEEL-224
- Use of strong cytochrome P450 (CYP)1A2 and CYP3A4 inhibitors and/or inducers ≤14 days prior to the first dose of PEEL-224 or during the study
- Use of systemic corticosteroids ≤14 days prior to the first dose of PEEL-224
- Are known to be HIV-positive, unless CD4 + lymphocyte count ≥ 300/μL, undetectable viral load; AND Receiving anti-retroviral therapy.
- Have uncontrolled hepatitis B infection or hepatitis C infection;
- Are pregnant or lactating, plan to become pregnant, or plan to donate gametes (ova or sperm) for in vitro fertilization during the study period or for 90 days after the patient's last study-related visit (for eligible patients only, if applicable). Eligible female patients unwilling to employ appropriate contraceptive measures to ensure that pregnancy does not occur during the study will be excluded;
- Have evidence of another malignancy ≤2 years prior to screening (except in situ non melanoma skin cell cancers and in situ cervical carcinoma);
- Are currently enrolled in another therapeutic clinical study or a non-therapeutic clinical study that will conflict with scheduled visits required by this study;
- Have clinically significant, uncontrolled cardiovascular disease
- Have history of cerebrovascular accident, transient ischemic attack, or thrombosis requiring treatment ≤3 months prior to the first dose of PEEL-224
- Have received or will receive a live vaccine ≤14 days prior to the first dose of PEEL 224.
- Have tested positive for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection ≤14 days of the Screening Visit.

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.
