Brief Summary

SLC-0111 is a selective, small molecule, inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase (CA) IX and is in development for the treatment of solid tumours over-expressing CA IX. CAIX, a transmembrane metalloenzyme, is...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Males or females aged ≥ 18 years old.
  • Able and willing to provide written informed consent and to comply with the study protocol and procedures.
  • Histological or cytological evidence of advanced and/or metastatic or unresectable tumour(s) for which standard curative measures do not exist.
  • Recovery to ≤ Grade 1 from the effects (excluding alopecia) of any prior therapy for their malignancies.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1
  • Life expectancy greater than 3 months in the Investigator's opinion.
  • The following time must have elapsed between previous therapy for cancer and first administration of SLC-0111:
  • At least 4 weeks since previous cancer-directed therapy (cytotoxic agents, targeted therapy including monoclonal antibody therapy, immunotherapy, hormonal therapy, and prior radiotherapy).
  • At least 4 weeks or five times the elimination half-life (whichever is shortest) of any investigational drug/biologic or combination product prior to first dose of study treatment.
  • At least 3 months since prior interferon therapy.
  • At least 4 weeks since any major surgery
  • At least 12 weeks since any incidence of severe gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • Adequate renal function:
  • • Creatinine ≤1.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN) or calculated creatinine clearance (CrCl) using the Cockcroft Gault formula ≥60 mL/min, or measured CrCl ≥60 mL/min.
  • Adequate hepatic function:
  • Serum bilirubin ≤1.5 times upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤2.5 x ULN (≤5 x ULN if liver lesions present \[i.e. liver metastasis or primary tumour of the liver for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC\]).
  • Adequate bone marrow function:
  • Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5 x 109/L
  • Platelets ≥100 x 109/L
  • Haemoglobin ≥90 g/L
  • Adequate coagulation tests: international normalised ratio (INR) ≤1.5 x ULN.
  • Corrected QT interval (QTcB) \< 470 ms
  • Ability to take oral liquid medication
  • Negative urine pregnancy test within 14 days prior to the first dose of study therapy for women of child-bearing potential, defined as a sexually mature woman who has not undergone a hysterectomy/oophorectomy or who has not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 24 consecutive months (i.e., who has had menses any time in the preceding 24 consecutive months).
  • Sexually-active women of child-bearing potential and sexually-active male subjects with a female partner of child-bearing potential or pregnant must agree to use acceptable double-barrier methods of contraception to avoid pregnancy from screening, for the duration of the study, and for 4 months after the last dose of study drug (Rhythm methods and/or abstinence will not be considered as highly effective methods of birth control).
  • Subjects must agree not to donate gametes (i.e. sperms and eggs) during the study and for 4 months following their last dose of SLC-0111.

Exclusion

  • Prior treatment with any drugs known to inhibit hypoxia (drugs that function under hypoxia and drugs that target cells in hypoxic regions are allowed).
  • Females who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Known central nervous system metastasis that is symptomatic and/or requires treatment. Radiographically stable lesions for 3 months prior to enrollment that were previously treated with steroids are permitted as long as they are not currently being treated with steroids.
  • History of myocardial infarction, unstable angina, congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association class III/IV), cerebrovascular accident, transient ischaemic attack, limb claudication at rest in the 6 months prior to the first administration of SLC-0111, or ongoing symptomatic dysrhythmias, or uncontrolled atrial or ventricular arrhythmias, or uncontrolled hypertension defined as systolic blood pressure ≥150 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg, or left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) \<50%.
  • Any condition or illness that, in the opinion of the Investigator would compromise subject safety or interfere with the evaluation of the safety of the study drug.
  • Subjects with documented cases of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), or hepatitis B or C.
  • Concurrent treatment with warfarin (Coumadin).
  • Known allergy to study drug or its excipients (PEG 200, PEG 400, Soy lecithin, Vitamin E TPGS, and Propylene glycol) or severe allergy to other sulfonamides.
  • Gastrointestinal condition which could interfere with the swallowing or absorption of study medication.
  • Refractory nausea and vomiting, chronic gastrointestinal diseases, gastrointestinal bleeding, ulceration, or perforation within 12 weeks prior to the first administration of SLC-0111 or significant bowel resection that would preclude adequate absorption.
