RSO-021 administered in increasing doses as a solution for pleural infusion through an indwelling IP catheter, administered as a single dose on Day 1 of each week of a 21-day treatment cycle

Location

6+ UK referring sites

Primary Objective

Description: This is an open label, non-randomized translational phase 1/2 dose- escalation and expansion study to determine the safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose and/or recommended phase 2 dose, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of RSO- 021 after intrapleural administration in patients with MPE. Patients must also have received and progressed on at least 1 standard line of treatment. The study will also evaluate antitumor activity of RSO-021 in two separate expansioncohorts; (1) in patients with MPE (non-mesothelioma) and (2) in patients with MPE from mesothelioma (up to 42 patients total for both cohorts).
