Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Phase I (Dose Escalation): Incidence and severity of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) during the first 28 days of treatment.
28 days

A DLT is defined as an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade ≥ 3 assessed as unrelated to disease, disease progression, intercurrent illness, or concomitant medications that occurs within the first cycle of treatment with DYP688. Other clinically significant toxicities may be considered to be DLTs, even if not CTCAE grade 3 or higher.

Phase I (Dose Escalation): Incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)
9 months

Assessment of safety of DYP688 as a single agent

Phase I (Dose Escalation): Frequency of dose interruptions, reductions, and discontinuations
9 months

Assessment of tolerability of DYP688 as a single agent

Phase II: Overall Response rate (ORR) per RECIST 1.1
17 months

ORR in Phase II will be evaluated by central review per RECIST 1.1.

Secondary Endpoints

Phase I and Phase II: PK profile of DYP688 - Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC)

Frequently asked questions about DYP688

What is DYP688 used for?

DYP688 is an investigational small molecule being developed for the treatment of metastatic uveal melanoma, a rare form of eye cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. It is currently in Phase 1 clinical development and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

Who is developing DYP688?

DYP688 is being developed by Novartis AG, a multinational pharmaceutical company headquartered in Switzerland. Novartis trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol NVS. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of DYP688 in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma.

What phase is DYP688 in?

DYP688 is currently in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug, meaning it has not been approved by regulatory agencies such as the FDA. The ongoing Phase 1 trial is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of DYP688 in patients with metastatic uveal melanoma.

What clinical trials is DYP688 in?

DYP688 is being studied in a Phase 1/II clinical trial with the identifier NCT05415072. This trial is actively recruiting participants and is expected to enroll approximately 66 patients with metastatic uveal melanoma and other GNAQ/11 mutant melanomas. The study is being conducted across multiple countries, including the United States, Australia, France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, and Switzerland.

Is DYP688 the same as any other drug?

DYP688 is a unique investigational compound and is not known to be the same as any other approved drug. It is a small molecule being studied specifically for its potential to treat metastatic uveal melanoma. As it is still in clinical development, it does not have any alternative brand names or generic names.
