The study includes two arms: one receiving a topical formulation of Endoxifen and another receiving an oral formulation, each with three cohorts. The topical arm has been fully enrolled and dosed and the first of the three oral cohorts has now been dosed.
"Our Phase 1 study of our proprietary Endoxifen is progressing quickly and as planned," stated Dr. Steve Quay, CEO and President. "This interim safety determination allows us to proceed to the next dosing level and, based on the progress to date, we expect to complete enrollment in the next six weeks."
The Phase 1 study is a double-blinded, placebo-controlled, repeat dose study of 48 healthy female subjects and its objectives are to assess the pharmacokinetics of proprietary formulations of both oral and topical Endoxifen dosage forms over 28 days, as well as to assess safety and tolerability.
