Purpose

Protocol PEN-866-001 is an open-label, multi-center, first-in-human Phase 1/2a study evaluating PEN-866 in patients with advanced solid malignancies whose disease has progressed after treatment with previous anticancer therapies.

Detailed Description

      Phase 1a will employ an adaptive model guided with overdose control principle to make dose
      recommendations and estimate the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of PEN-866 (single agent).

      Phase 1b will employ a standard 3 + 3 design to make dose recommendations and estimate the
      MTD of PEN-866 in combination therapy.

      Phase 2a (single agent) will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and
      pharmacodynamics profile of PEN-866 (single agent) at the recommended Phase 2 dose determined
      at the conclusion of Phase 1a in patients with advanced solid malignancies.
