CANCER
In this first-in-human, open-label, dose-escalation phase 1 trial, we enrolled progressive cancer patients (aged ≥ 18 years) with ECOG 0–2 into 5 cohorts. The treatment cycle was based on a 30-min IV infusion of LNA-i-miR-221 on 4 consecutive days. Three patients within the first cohort were treated with 2 cycles (8 infusions), while 14 patients were treated with a single course (4 infusions); all patients were evaluated for phase 1 primary endpoint. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee and Regulatory Authorities (EudraCT 2017-002615-33).
