The Safety Review Committee (SRC) has determined the RP2D of ivaltinostat (250mg/m²) after reviewing safety data from three cohorts with its increasing dose levels in combination with a fixed capecitabine dose.

The study is open for subject enrolment, following a unanimous recommendation from the SRC.
In the Phase II study, patients with metastatic PDAC who exhibit no evidence of disease progression after treatment with FOLFIRINOX initially will be assigned to receive either capecitabine monotherapy or combination therapy.
Progression-free survival (PFS) is the primary endpoint of the trial.
CG Pharmaceuticals global strategic planning vice-president Dr Gene Cho said: “I am thrilled and honoured to share this important study milestone and witness the commencement of Phase II, with an enrolment target of 52 patients.
