A Phase 1/2 interventional study of VT30 in Venous Malformation, Lymphatic Malformation and Venolymphatic Malformation, sponsored by Venthera, Inc., a BridgeBio company. Terminated at 15 sites in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 60 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2022-08-04.
Sponsored by Venthera, Inc., a BridgeBio company (part of BridgeBio) · Phase 1/2, Interventional, and Treatment
VT30-101 is a 2-part first-in-human trial of topically administered VT30 to subjects with cutaneous venous malformations, lymphatic malformations, or mixed venolymphatic malformations associated with PIK3CA or TEK mutations.
Part 1 is a 4-week treatment, open-label, 4-sequence, escalating repeat-application cohort study, with intra-subject and inter-cohort dose escalation.
Part 2 is a 12-week treatment, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, safety and exploratory efficacy study. Part 2 will be initiated only after the successful completion of Part 1 with results that demonstrate the general safety and tolerability of topically applied VT30. Up to 12 subjects who complete Part 1 may be enrolled into Part 2 of the study.
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VT30. The study will also determine the dose and regimen of VT30 to be carried into Part 2 of the protocol. Other aims include documenting plasma drug levels of VT30 and VT10 and, on an exploratory basis, examining pharmacologic target engagement and change in potential efficacy readouts.
VT30-101 is designed as a Phase 1/2, first-in-human study of topically administered VT30 to subjects with cutaneous venous malformations (VMs), lymphatic malformations (LMs), or mixed venolymphatic malformations (VLMs) associated with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase catalytic alpha polypeptide (PIK3CA) or tyrosine receptor kinase (TEK) mutations. Capillary involvement and/or extension of the lesion into subcutaneous tissues is permitted.
The study will occur in 2 parts, and in both study parts, subjects will participate in a Screening Period (up to 6 weeks) before beginning the indicated Treatment Period.
Part 1 will be an open-label, 4-sequence, escalating repeat-application study comprised of up to 4 cohorts (3 subjects per cohort, with 3 up to 6 in Cohort 4, or the final Part 1 cohort). In each cohort, subjects will be given topical VT30 for a 4-week Treatment Period. Subjects will begin treatment with the designated dose on Day 1. After 2 weeks, the Investigator will examine the treated surface area and determine if the formulation is tolerated such that the subject may apply the next dose strength of VT30 gel for the remaining duration of the Treatment Period.
Specifically, the following gel dose strengths (concentrations) are planned for Cohorts 1 through 3 in Part 1:
A Safety Review Committee (SRC), with sponsor, investigator and independent medical representation, will provide oversight and guidance for study conduct. After 3 subjects have been dosed for at least 21 days in any of the first three Part 1 cohorts, the SRC may request additional data, approve initiation of the subsequent cohort, or mandate that additional subjects to be enrolled at either the higher or lower dose within the cohort.
After 9 subjects in Cohorts 1 through 3 (3 subjects per cohort) have completed the 4-week Treatment Period, the SRC will determine if additional subjects should be assigned to Cohort 4 (or the final Part 1 cohort) to receive the MTD (maximum tolerated dose) or MFD (maximum feasible dose) strength of VT30. Subjects in Cohort 4 will receive the designated dose strength and regimen of VT30 for a full 4 weeks.
Following the completion of Cohort 4 in Part 1, the SRC will determine whether to authorize initiation of Part 2 and will confirm the dose level and regimen to be administered in Part 2.
Part 2 will be a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study containing 36 subjects assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either VT30 or placebo. Up to 12 subjects who complete Part 1 may enroll in Part 2, provided they meet all Part 2-specific inclusion criteria with no applicable exclusions.
After the first 12 subjects in Part 2 have completed 4 weeks of treatment, the SRC will conduct a review of blinded safety data to confirm no revisions or changes are needed to the protocol. Subsequent reviews may also be conducted to ensure continued acceptable safety and tolerability.
After subjects complete their designated Treatment Period (in Part 1 or Part 2), they will participate in a 4-week post treatment Follow-up Period.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).
Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.
Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.
Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.
Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.
The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.
“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.
A blood test of average blood sugar over the past two to three months, given as a percentage or in mmol/mol. 6.5% (48 mmol/mol) or more is the usual threshold for diabetes, normally confirmed by a second test.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

VT30 is a PI3K-inhibitor prodrug, formulated as a topical gel and dispensed from a metered dose pump; administration is once or twice daily, applied to target-treatment area(s) on the skin. One pump action dispenses 250 µL of gel, intended to treat an area of 140 cm2.
Drug: VT30
VT30 gel is intended as a topical treatment of cutaneous VMs, LMs, or VLMs that driven by inappropriate PI3K activation. In the skin, VT30 is rapidly metabolized to VT10, an active drug form, and is intended to sufficiently permeate the stratum corneum and achieve target engagement. It is expected that VT30 will lead to amelioration of the signs and symptoms of cutaneous VMs, LMs and/or VLMs.
