  • Research summary

    This study is investigating the safety and effectiveness of a new formulation of the experimental treatment, EP0062, in patients with
    breast cancer that contains a specific protein, and which has relapsed or spread. The study consists of three parts:
    Part 1 is a dose escalation part, during which increasing dose levels of EP0062 will be tested to investigate if they are safely
    tolerated. Up to two dose levels which are found to be the best during this phase of testing will then be used in Parts 2 and 3. In Part
    1, we will also investigate what the body does to the drug (known as pharmacokinetics).
    In Part 2, we will continue to investigate the safety and tolerability of EP0062 at the dose(s) selected in Part 1 and also evaluate the
    effects of EP0062 on cancer.
    In Part 3, we will assess the safety of the new formulation of EP0062 in combination with other established therapies to see if they
    are safe and tolerated and to determine the best dose of EP0062 to be used in combinations.
    Approximately 128 patients will be enrolled in the study in about 9 sites in the US and UK.
