First-in-human Study to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability and Blood Levels of the Test Drug MP0250 in Cancer Patients

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Male or female ≥ 18 years
2. Histologically confirmed and documented advanced or metastatic solid tumour refractory to at least 1 prior regimen of standard treatment or for which no curative therapy is available and for whom MP0250 is a reasonable option
3. Progressive or stable disease documented radiologically in the 4 weeks prior to screening
4. Presence of a measurable tumour or a tumour evaluable per RECIST v1.1
5. ECOG performance status ≤ 1
6. Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks
7. Adequate haematological function prior to first dose, defined as:

   * Absolute neutrophils count ≥ 1500 cells/μL
   * Haemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL
   * Platelet count \> 100,000/μL
   * Prothrombin time or partial thromboplastin time \< 1.2 x ULN
8. Adequate renal function prior to first dose, defined as either

   * Serum creatinine \< 1.5 mg/dL or
   * Serum creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min/m2 (by Cockroft-Gault equation)
9. Adequate hepatic function prior to first dose, defined as

   * Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN
   * AST/ALT ≤ 2.5 x ULN, or ≤ 5 x ULN if known hepatic metastases
   * Alkaline phosphatase ≤ 2.5 x ULN, or ≤ 5 x ULN if known hepatic or bone metastases
10. Female patients with a negative pregnancy test result at screening and baseline

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Female patients pregnant or breast-feeding
2. Haematological malignancies or other secondary malignancy, that is currently clinically significant or requires active intervention
3. Known untreated or symptomatic brain metastases
4. Predominantly squamous non-small cell lung carcinoma
5. Anti-tumour treatment within 4 weeks of the first infusion of MP0250, such as chemotherapy, experimental or targeted therapy, biologics, hormonal therapy and radiotherapy. The anti-tumour treatments below need longer wash-out periods and must not be given within the indicated weeks of the first infusion of MP0250:

   i. Nitrosoureas: 6 weeks ii. Monoclonal antibodies: 8 weeks
6. Exceptions: the following anti-tumour treatments are allowed as indicated i. Palliative radiation to bone metastases to relieve bone pain ii. Standard of care treatment such as bone modifying agents (i.e. bisphosphonates), denosumab, maintenance hormonal therapy for metastatic prostate and breast cancers, hormone-replacement therapy, and oral contraceptives
7. Presence of residual toxicities of CTC-AE Grade ≥ 2 after prior anti-tumour therapy at screening. Except meeting other exclusion criteria, grade 1 toxicities related to previous treatments are acceptable at the time of the first infusion of MP0250, as well as Grade 2 alopecia
8. Exclusion criterion removed
9. Major surgical procedures, open biopsy or significant traumatic injury within 4 weeks of first dose or anticipation of major surgical procedure during the course of the study, core biopsy or minor surgical procedures within 1 week of first dose
10. Serious non-healing wound, active ulcer or untreated bone fracture
11. Proteinuria at screening as defined by ≥ 1+ on urinalysis dipstick, confirmed by ≥ 1g in 24h urinalysis
12. Uncontrolled hypertension or any other serious cardiovascular or cardiac condition as judged by the investigator
13. Severe or uncontrolled renal insufficiency
