Trial Summary

This randomized phase I double blinded trial is a series of dose escalation studies that observe the frequency and severity of adverse events caused by escalating dose levels of the drug 9cUAB30 in healthy volunteers. The use of 9cUAB30 is suspected to prevent the growth of cancer. The protocol looks to find the recommended phase II dose of 9cUAB30, based on the maximum tolerated dose (the highest dose level with minimal adverse events) and pharmacokinetic measures from plasma and urine sampling. The study began with the UWI09-8-02 (c2003) protocol, which monitored the use of 20mg and 40mg of 9cUAB30. After a lack of unacceptable toxicity in participants, a second study was conducted (UWI10-16-01R (c2003)) which observed 9cUAB30 in amounts of 40mg, 80mg, and 160mg. After a lack of unacceptable toxicity was observed again, a third and final study (UWI10-16-01R (c2012)) was conducted which monitored participants taking 240mg of 9cUAB30.

The UWI10-16-01R (06/29/2015) trial contains randomized protocols with various treatment levels:

1. UWI09-8-02 (c2003)
   • Placebo (2 capsules once daily)
   • 9cUAB30 (2 x 10mg capsules (20mg) once daily)
   • 9cUAB30 (2 x 20mg capsules (40mg) once daily)
2. UWI10-16-01R (c2003)
   • Placebo (8 capsules once daily)
   • 9cUAB30 (8 x 5mg capsules (40mg) once daily)
   • 9cUAB30 (8 x 10mg capsules (80mg) once daily)
   • 9cUAB30 (8 x 20mg capsules (160mg) once daily)
3. UWI10-16-01R (c2012)
   • Placebo (12 capsules once daily)
   • 9cUAB30 (12 x 20mg capsules (240mg) once daily)

Target Enrollment: 33

Statistical Considerations:

The primary objective is to determine the recommended phase II dose of 9cUAB30. For our purposes, the maximally tolerated dose is defined as the highest dose level with < 25% (2 of 8) of treated participants experiencing a grade 3 toxicity that is possibly, probably or definitely related to study drug. The recommended phase II dose will be based on the MTD. The co-primary objective was to characterize the urine and plasma single dose and steady state pharmacokinetics of 9cUAB30 in normal volunteers. Eligible participants were to be randomized in groups of 10, with 8 participants receiving the appropriate dose level of drug and 2 participants receiving placebo, in a double-blind fashion for 28 days. If there was no dose-limiting toxicity and the difference between the AUCs on Day 1 and Day 36 is within tolerance limits, dose was to be escalated and the group with the subsequent drug dose treated. The groups received the following escalating doses: 20 mg, 40 mg, 80 mg, 160 mg, and 240mg.

The secondary objectives are to correlate the pharmacokinetics of 9cUAB30 with toxicity, to compare toxicity between placebo and controls at each dose level, and to assess changes in single dose pharmacokinetics from Day 1 to Day 36.

Study Schema

Results/Findings:

This phase I dose escalation study of the novel retinoid 9cUAB30 determined 160mg per day as the recommend phase 2 dose based on concentrations well over those required for RXR activation in preclinical models and tolerability. Preliminary data suggest both a favorable toxicity profile as seen in the preclinical testing in animals and our prior pilot study with oral availability and linear pharmacokinetics.
