About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Efficacy of VRN101099 in Patients With HER2-Positive Solid Tumors

This FIH open-label study aims to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and antitumor effect of VRN101099 in patients with HER2-positive solid tumors for whom no standard therapies are available.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label study where eligible patients will receive VRN101099 capsules orally, once daily (QD) at the specified dose level, in repeated 21-day treatment cycles until disease progression (PD), death, loss to follow-up, start of another anticancer treatment, intolerable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, or study completion or closure (whichever occurs first).

Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) will be monitored during the first cycle of treatment (i.e., 21 days of IP administration, Cycle 1).

The proposed VRN101099 dose levels are: 80 mg QD, 160 mg QD, 240 mg QD, 320 mg QD, 400 mg QD, and 480 mg QD.

Safety Monitoring committee will be setup for review DLTs and overall safety data. Border medical oncology in Australia will be using Omico for CaSP NGS screening participants to the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing VRN101099 in people with HER2-positive Solid Tumors, run by Voronoi, Inc at 1 site in Australia.

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 8 inclusion and 40 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Australia. 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?

Contact Rutu Dabhi (+1 201-515-9340, dabhirutu@voronoi.io), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Estimate of Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of VRN101099 (time frame: Up to 2 years post first dose administration). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 28 Aug 2025.
