Limantrafin (CB-103) has been evaluated across multiple Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials targeting various oncological conditions, including lymphoblastic leukemia, advanced breast cancer, adenoid cystic carcinoma, and solid tumors. Sponsored by biopharmaceutical entities such as Cellestia Biotech AG and clinical investigators at institutions like M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, these studies exhibit recruitment statuses ranging from active recruitment to termination. For example, a clinical trial is currently recruiting patients with NOTCH-activated adenoid cystic carcinoma, whereas earlier studies have been terminated.

Mechanism and Biochemical Profile
Appendix RUO and cGMP Quality Standards
| Quality Dimension | RUO (Research Use Only) | cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice) |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical Applicability | Prohibited in human clinical trials or medical diagnostics. | Mandatory for human clinical trials (Phase I–III) and therapies. |
| Regulatory Status | Non-regulated grade; exempt from drug manufacturing laws. | Legally enforced by health authorities (e.g., FDA, EMA, NMPA). |
| Facility Environment | Unclassified analytical or research laboratories. | Validated Cleanrooms (ISO Class 5–8) with continuous monitoring. |
| Quality Control | Basic purity and activity testing. | Rigorous safety release testing (Sterility, Endotoxin, Mycoplasma). |
| Process Validation | Basic equipment calibration; no process validation required. | Full qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ) and complete batch records. |
| Quality Assurance | Vendor self-declared without required formal QMS. | Mandatory QA/QC unit, Change Control, CAPA, and vendor audits. |
| Regulatory Impact | High risk of IND rejection if used as a critical raw material. | Required for IND/NDA filings, supported by Drug Master Files (DMF). |
