The Phase I study is intended to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic profile of the PI3Kalpha selective inhibitor.
In PI3Kalpha mutant-specific preclinical tumour models, INK1117 has demonstrated good efficacy results.
Vall d’Hebron University Hospital, Barcelona, Medical Oncology Department head Josep Tabernero said they will explore INK1117 in cancer patients, particularly those whose tumours have a mutation of the PIK3CA gene.
