VMD-928 Monotherapy and in Combination With Pembrolizumab to Treat TrkA Overexpression Driven Solid Tumors or Lymphoma

Description

This is an open-label, dose-escalation (Phase 1) and expansion (Phase 2) multi-center study conducted in five parts to identify the safe and pharmacologically active doses (MTD and/orRP2D) and regimen for oral VMD-928 monotherapy and in combination with a PD-1 inhibitor, pembrolizumab in cancer patients. An immunohistochemistry (IHC) assay specific for detecting TrkA protein in tumor tissue samples has been validated and is being used to detect TrkA protein expressions in patient tumor tissue samples at Pre-screening. The study is currently focusing on the top 5 solid tumor with the highest TrkA protein overexpression are: Head and Neck Cancers (HNC), Esophageal cancer, Lung cancers, Mesothelioma, and Pancreatic Cancer.
