Summary

This trial aims to test a new drug called BMX-001 in combination with standard chemotherapy (paclitaxel) to see if it can improve treatment outcomes for patients with ovarian and endomet

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced, recurrent, metastatic ovarian or endometrial cancer who have faced issues with chemotherapy resistance and nerve damage from previous treatments. Specific eligibility criteria are not provided but typically include factors like health status and prior treatment history.
What is being tested?
The study tests BMX-001 in combination with the chemotherapy drug Paclitaxel (Taxol). It aims to find a safe dosage that enhances tumor control while reducing side effects, especially nerve damage caused by Taxol. The trial will also monitor how well tumors respond to this treatment combo.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed, typical ones associated with Paclitaxel include nerve damage, fatigue, hair loss, nausea. BMX-001 aims to reduce these side effects while enhancing anti-tumor efficacy.

Study Objectives

Study objectives can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary study objectives
To determine the Recommended Phase 2 Dose of BMX-001 in combination with paclitaxel in a safety cohort of patients. This would be carried forward as the dose to be used in the expanded cohort portion of the trial.
Secondary study objectives
To describe patient-reported outcomes of health related quality of life (HRQoL) using Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy/Gynecologic Oncology - Neurotoxicity (FACT/GOG-NTX) Questionnaire and monofilament testing
To evaluate preliminary efficacy based on objective response rate (ORR) using RECIST v 1.1 per investigator assessment on all evaluable subjects enrolled
To evaluate preliminary efficacy based on progression free survival (PFS) using RECIST v 1.1 per investigator assessment on all evaluable subjects enrolled
Other study objectives
To assess correlations between B cell lymphoma/ leukemia 2 (BCL2), Nrf2, TNF- # and NFkB RNA and protein expression and activation, ctDNA, and clinical endpoints (response and progressionfree survival) in all evaluable subjects enrolled
To characterize the Cmax of BMX-001 when delivered in combination with PTX in recurrent ovarian or endometrial cancer in all evaluable subjects enrolled.
To characterize the Tmax and half life of BMX-001 when delivered in combination with PTX in recurrent ovarian or endometrial cancer in all evaluable subjects enrolled.
