NCT04186156 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2021-02-03

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To evaluate the preliminary efficacy of KA2507 (an orally active potent and selective HDAC6 inhibitor) in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer (BTC) previously treated with standard of care chemotherapy.

Conditions

  • Biliary Tract Cancer

Interventions

DRUG

KA2507

KA2507, an orally-active new chemical entity, is a potent and selective inhibitor of the HDAC6 enzyme, with potential clinical utility in the treatment of melanoma and other solid tumors. KA2507 has been shown to display potent in vitro activity in a range of cancer cell lines, including melanoma cell lines. KA2507 exerts potent in vivo efficacy in a syngeneic model of B16 melanoma. Here, the combination of the agent's direct tumor growth inhibition and metastasis suppression, coupled with its immunotherapeutic activity - demonstrated by decreased expression of STAT-3 and PD-L1 and increased expression of acetylated tubulin, gp100 and MHC Class I in tumors - have been observed.
