Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, HC-5404-FU, to see what the maximum tolerated dose is and to evaluate its safety and tolerability. The trial will enroll 36 subjects with specific types of cancer at 3-5 US sites. The starting dose is 25 mg twice daily, escalating to 50, 100, and 200 mg as safety allows. The trial will then expand to assess the most appropriate dose and tumor type(s) selected in Phase 1a as the most appropriate for further clinical development.

Who is the study for?
Adults with certain solid tumors, including renal cell carcinoma and small cell lung cancer, who have had a maximum of five prior treatments for advanced disease can join this trial. They must have measurable lesions, good organ function, no severe allergies or conditions that could interfere with the study, and agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing HC-5404-FU's safety at different doses in patients with specific cancers. Starting at 25 mg twice daily, doses will increase as tolerated to find the highest dose patients can take without serious side effects (MTD). The study includes regular monitoring and may expand into further phases.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects are not detailed but typically include reactions related to drug tolerance levels such as fatigue, digestive issues, blood disorders. Specific side effects will be monitored closely as dosage increases.
