Safety, Dose Tolerance, Pharmacokinetics, and Pharmacodynamics Study of CPX-POM in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

Inclusion Criteria Include:

• Patient is male or female aged ≥18 years.
• Patient provided signed and dated informed consent prior to initiation of any study procedures.
• Patient has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 (fully active, able to carry out all pre-disease activities without restriction) or 1 (unable to perform physically strenuous activity but ambulatory and able to carry out work of a light or sedentary nature).
• Patient has a predicted life expectancy of ≥3 months.
• Dose escalation cohorts only: Patient has adequate renal function (creatinine ≤1.5 × the upper limit of normal [ULN]) or a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of ≥50 mL/min/1.73 m^2). Expansion cohort only: Patient has a GFR of ≥30 mL/min/1.73 m^2.
• Patient has adequate hepatic function, as evidenced by a total bilirubin ≤1.5 × ULN, aspartate transaminase (AST), and /or alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤3 × ULN or ≤5 ×ULN, if due to liver involvement by tumor.
• Patient has adequate bone marrow function, as evidenced by hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL in the absence of transfusion within the previous 72 hours, platelet count ≥100×10^9cells/L, and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5×10^9 cells/L.
• Patient has no significant ischemic heart disease or myocardial infarction (MI) within 6 months before the first dose of CPX-POM and currently has adequate cardiac function, as evidenced by a left ventricular ejection fraction of >50% as assessed by multi-gated acquisition (MUGA) or ultrasound/echocardiography (ECHO); and corrected QT interval (QTc) <470 msec by Fridericia (QTcF). The eligibility of patients with ventricular pacemakers for whom the QT interval may not be accurately measurable will be determined on a case-by-case basis by the Sponsor in consultation with the Medical Monitor.
• Patient and his/her partner agree to use adequate contraception after providing written informed consent through 3 months after the last dose of CPX-POM, as follows:
• For women: Negative pregnancy test during Screening and at Day 1 of each treatment cycle and compliant with a medically-approved contraceptive regimen during and for 3 months after the treatment period or documented to be surgically sterile or postmenopausal.
• For men: Compliant with a medically-approved contraceptive regimen during and for 3 months after the treatment period or documented to be surgically sterile. Men whose sexual partners are of child-bearing potential must agree to use 2 methods of contraception prior to study entry, during the study, and for 3 months after the treatment period.
• Patient is willing and able to participate in the study and comply with all study requirements.

Exclusion Criteria Include:

Patients who meet any of the following exclusion criteria are not to be enrolled in this study

• Patient has a history of risk factors for torsade de pointes (e.g., heart failure, hypokalemia, family history of long QT syndrome) or requires the use of concomitant medications that prolong the QT/QTc interval during study participation. Patients should not receive anti-emetic medications before and following Dose 1 of Cycle 1 for each treatment cohort. However, anti-emetics such as ondansetron or granisetron that have a mild QTc prolonging effect are allowed starting with Dose 2 of Cycle 1, if used with caution and attention to the approved labelling.
• Patient has an abnormal cardiac appearance/heart size, as evidenced by chest X-ray or computed tomography (CT) scan.
• Patient has an uncontrolled or severe intercurrent medical condition (including uncontrolled brain metastases). Patients with stable brain metastases either treated or being treated with a stable dose of steroids/anticonvulsants, with no dose change within 4 weeks before the first dose of CPX-POM and no anticipated dose change, are allowed. The decision to exclude a patient from the study for an uncontrolled or severe intercurrent medical condition will be made by the Principal Invest
