About this study

Official title: A Single-arm, Non-randomized, Open-label, Dose-escalation and Dose-expansion, Multicenter Phase I Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Profiles, as Well as Preliminary Efficacy, of ND-003 in Chinese Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors.

This study is done to test the safety and preliminary efficacy of drug ND-003 tablets in patients with solid tumors. ND-003 is a highly potent and selective small molecular inhibitor of NTRK (neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase) and RET (rearranged during transfection). The study also investigates how the drug is absorbed and processed in the human body.

Read the detailed description

The trial will be conducted in 2 parts: an initial dose escalation phase of drug ND-003 tablets in patients with solid tumors will be followed by an expansion phase in subjects with solid tumors harboring NTRK or RET Fusion or Mutation.

The objectives of the study are to determine the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics profiles, as well as preliminary efficacy of orally administered ND-003 in patients with advanced solid tumors.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)

    DLT is defined as adverse events (graded according to NCI CTCAE ver5.0) assessed by the investigator to be definitely/probably/possibly related to the investigational product

    Measured: 4 days after single oral administration and the first cycle of multiple administration (28 days)

  2. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD)

    MTD is defined as the highest dose level at which fewer than 1 of 6 subjects experienced DLT.

    Measured: 4 days after single oral administration and the first cycle of multiple administration (28 days)

  3. Adverse Events (AE) assessed by CTCAE ver5.0.

    Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE ver5.0.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (8)

  1. maximum concentration (Cmax)

    The drug maximum concentration reaches when the absorption rate is equal to the elimination rate at a single dose.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours after at a singe dose administration of ND-003

  2. Time to maximum concentration (Tmax)

    Time required to reach peak drug concentration after a single administration.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours after at a singe dose administration of ND-003

  3. Elimination Half-life (t1/2)

    Elimination Half-life (t1/2) refers to the time required to eliminate 50% of the drug from the body.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours after a single dose administration.

  4. Clearance (CL/F)

    Clearance (CL) describes how the body effectively eliminate drugs from the systemic circulation, typically defined as the volume of drug-containing plasma eliminated from the body per unit time.

    Measured: Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours after a single dose administration.

  5. AUC from time 0 to last time of quantifiable concentration (AUC0-t)

    Area under the plasma concentration-time curve from the initial administration to the last measurable concentration point

    Measured: Pre-dose, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 72 hours after a single dose administration.

  6. Objective response rate (ORR)

    ORR is defined as confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on RECIST (version 1.1) .

    Measured: Baseline through up to 6 cycles or until disease progression (each cycle is 28 days)

  7. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    PFS is defined as the time from randomization until objective tumor progression or death, whichever occurs first.

    Measured: Baseline through up to 6 cycles or until disease progression (each cycle is 28 days)

  8. Overall survival (OS)

    Overall survival is defined as the time from randomization until death from any cause and is measured in the intent-to-treat population.

    Measured: Baseline through up to 6 cycles or until disease progression (each cycle is 28 days)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ND-003 tablets in people with Advanced Solid Tumor, run by Shenzhen NewDEL Biotech, Co., Ltd at 21 sites in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 19 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) (time frame: 4 days after single oral administration and the first cycle of multiple administration (28 days)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06169579.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Sep 2026.
