Oxilio completes Phase 1 clinical trial with OXL001 at Quotient Sciences - Nottingham with favorable safety and pharmacokinetic data.
OXFORD, UK; 20 June 2023 – Oxilio, a pioneering drug development company repurposing existing drugs to address unmet needs in cancer treatment, today announced favorable safety and pharmacokinetic data from a single-part, five-period, sequential, open-labeled Phase 1 study of OXL001 in healthy male volunteers that is being conducted at Quotient Science. The objectives of the study were met as follows:
- OXL001 capsules were considered to be safe at all doses tested
- Dose proportional plasma exposures were achieved via a novel lipidic formulation technology, exclusively licensed from TRx Biosciences
- Data generated will inform the formulation and dosing strategy for future OXL001 studies
The Company also announces the commencement of an additional pre-clinical program that will enhance understanding of how OXL001 formulations can target preferential uptake into specific tumor-surrogate tissues following oral delivery. Results in the coming months will enable further optimization of OXL001 at this stage of clinical development to maximize the product’s potential in the treatment of cancer.
Dr. Mark Egerton, CEO of Quotient Sciences, added:
We are pleased that the Phase 1 healthy volunteer study being conducted at Quotient Sciences’ Nottingham facility has delivered rapid and favorable results for Oxilio’s OXL001 program. We will continue supporting OXL001 with our Translational Pharmaceutics® platform with fully integrated clinical assessments in order to aid in accelerated development timelines and downstream advancement to patients.
