Study summary

A phase 2 Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Single Agent AUR103 Calcium in Patients with Advanced, Well or Moderately differentiated Neuroendocrine Tumours.

This is a Proof of Concept (PoC) Phase 2 study of AUR103 calcium in patients with advanced, well or moderately differentiated neuroendocrine tumours.

The main objective is to evaluate the efficacy of AUR103 calcium in patients with well or moderately differentiated neuroendocrine tumors.

Patients with relapsed/refractory well or moderately differentiated neuroendocrine tumors.

AUR103 calcium will be administered twice daily. Patients will receive AUR103 calcium until disease progression or intolerable toxicity.

Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, symptomatic congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, active peptic ulcer disease or significant gastritis, active bleeding diatheses, presence of any major medical illness (e.g., renal, hepatic, hematologic, gastrointestinal, endocrine, pulmonary, or psychiatric illness/social situations or clinically significant laboratory / ECG abnormalities at screening, any or a combination of illnesses), which, in the opinion of the principal investigator (PI), may either put the patient at risk because of participation in the study, or influence the results or the patient's ability to participate in the study.
  21. Current swab-positive or suspected (under investigation) COVID-19 infection or fever and other signs or symptoms suggestive of COVID19 infection with recent contact of person(s) with confirmed COVID19 infection, at screening or Day 1 of Cycle 1.
