Interventions and Outcome Measures

Arms

experimental: ACE-232

Administered once daily (QD) continuously at the assigned dose level in accordance with the standard 3+3 dose-escalation scheme

Interventions

ACE-232 tablets

ACE-232 tablets will be administered orally daily as a continuous regimen together with Dexamethasone and Fludrocortisone. Subjects will continue to receive study treatment until PD as judged by local investigator review, development of unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent.

Primary outcome measure

  • Number of patients experiencing adverse events (AEs)/serious adverse events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: From time of information consent to 30 days post last dose, up to approximately 37 months ]
  • Number of patients experiencing dose limiting toxicity (DLT), as defined in the protocol [ Time Frame: From the first dose of ACE-232 on Cycle 1 Day 1 up to and including the planned end of Cycle 1 (at the end of 28 days) ]
  • Recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and/or maximum tolerated dose (MTD) [ Time Frame: Up to approximately 37 months ]
