Multiple Phase 1 and Phase 1b clinical trials sponsored by Curis, Inc. have evaluated intravenous and oral formulations of CUDC-101 to assess safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics in patients with advanced malignancies. These studies targeted conditions including head and neck, liver, breast, gastric, and non-small cell lung cancers, alongside general solid tumors. While several trials were completed, others evaluating oral dose escalation were terminated prior to completion.
