NXP800 for Bile Duct Cancer
Trial Summary
What is the purpose of this trial?
This phase I trial tests the safety, best dose, and effectiveness of NXP800 in treating patients with cholangiocarcinoma that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). NXP800 inhibits a pathway called the heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) pathway. The inhibition of this pathway inhibits proliferation, migration, survival, and metastasis in susceptible tumor cells. Overexpressed, amplified and/or overactivated in many cancer cells, HSF1 activates a set of genes that play a key role in tumor initiation, progression and metastasis. Inhibiting this pathway may in turn inhibit tumor initiation, progression, and/or metastasis. Giving NXP800 may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in treating patients with advanced or metastatic cholangiocarcinoma.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial requires that you stop using drugs that strongly affect CYP3A4 (a liver enzyme) at least 7 days before starting and during the study. Other medications may be used with caution, but the protocol does not specify if you need to stop all current medications.
