Safety and Efficacy of AGN-INM176 in Prostate Patients With Rising PSA

The study is designed as a Phase I/II open-label trial to assess the safety and preliminary efficacy of the herbal supplement INM176 in intercepting prostate cancer-specific PSA levels. The primary objective of the Phase I stage is to determine the recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) through a 3+3 dose escalation design while evaluating the safety of INM176 during a 4-week cycle for dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) in patients with a history of prostate cancer or those under active surveillance for low-risk disease. In the Phase II stage, the primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of INM176 at the RP2D in stabilizing or reducing plasma PSA levels after six cycles of treatment in post-RP and post-RT patients experiencing a rise in PSA. Secondary objectives include pharmacokinetic (PK) evaluations following the first dose (Cycle 1 Day 1) in both Phase I and Phase II subjects, with an additional PK assessment on Cycle 1 Day 28 for Phase I subjects and on Cycle 2 Day 1 for Phase II subjects. Acute and chronic exposure PK parameters (including Cmax and AUC) will be correlated with safety outcomes and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) efficacy measures, when applicable, stratified by CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 metabolizer status. Additional secondary objectives include evaluation of PSA change from baseline at protocol-specified timepoints; immunophenotyping of blood natural killer (NK) cells and other immune cell subsets; assessment of NK functional activity, plasma IL-8, and select cytokines; and measurement of male hormones and hormone-binding proteins. These pharmacodynamic biomarkers will be analyzed in relation to PSA response and PK metrics, with assessments conducted according to Phase I and Phase II study schedules.
