Objectives
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ODM-212 in combination with anti-cancer therapy in participants with selected advanced solid tumours. In part 1, this assessment is used to determine the recommended dose for part 2, which is clinically relevant for dose selection and subsequent development. The secondary objectives are to evaluate preliminary anti-tumour activity, to characterise the pharmacokinetics of ODM-212 in combination with anti-cancer therapy, to further evaluate preliminary anti-tumour activity in part 2, to define the optimal dose(s) for further clinical trials, and to further characterise pharmacokinetics in part 2.
Participants
The trial population comprised 68 participants with histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic, unresectable solid tumours. Both male and female adults were included, with an age of at least 18 years. Participants were required to have an ECOG performance status of 0-1, an estimated life expectancy of more than 12 weeks, and the ability to take oral medication and record daily adherence. The population was selected from individuals willing and able to comply with the protocol and receive one of the anti-cancer therapies studied. Relevant inclusion requirements also included informed consent, availability for paired fresh tumour biopsy, and recent representative tumour tissue; in Part 2, measurable disease by RECIST v. 1.1 was required. No information on diet, physical activity, or other lifestyle considerations was provided.
Plans and Procedures
This is a phase 1/2, open-label trial evaluating ODM-212 in combination with anti-cancer therapy in participants with selected advanced solid tumours. The study is divided into two parts. Part 1 is used to assess safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy, and to determine the recommended dose for Part 2. Part 2 further evaluates safety and tolerability at the selected dose. The overall trial duration is estimated from 2026-05-20 to 2029-12-30. Trial procedures include a screening visit to confirm eligibility, obtain informed consent, review medical history and study criteria, and collect required tumour tissue and paired fresh tumour biopsies when applicable. On-treatment visits are performed to assess treatment administration, adverse events, laboratory values, electrocardiograms, pharmacokinetics, and disease response. Follow-up visits are conducted after treatment to monitor ongoing safety and outcomes. An end-of-study visit is performed to complete final assessments. Participant involvement is expected to continue for the duration of treatment and scheduled follow-up. Early termination may occur because of disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, protocol non-compliance, investigator decision, or other circumstances requiring discontinuation.
Treatment
ODM-212 was administered orally as coated tablets in 5 mg and 40 mg strengths. The trial evaluated ODM-212 in combination with anti-cancer therapy in participants with advanced solid tumours. No dose, dosing frequency, or specific administration schedule was provided in the source data.
Paclitaxel albumin-bound, nivolumab, gemcitabine, ipilimumab, and sotorasib were administered as the non-experimental anti-cancer therapies in the study. Paclitaxel albumin-bound, nivolumab, gemcitabine, and ipilimumab were given by intravenous administration, while sotorasib was administered orally. The source data did not specify the pharmaceutical form, dose, dosing frequency, or administration schedule for these treatments.
Efficacy
Efficacy will be assessed by objective response rate, duration of response, disease control rate, progression-free survival, and duration of stable disease in Part 1. In Part 2, efficacy will be assessed by objective response rate, duration of response, disease control rate, clinical benefit rate, progression-free survival, and overall survival. These efficacy evaluations will be determined based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

- Part 2 only: Participants must have measurable disease by response evaluation criteria in solid tumours (RECIST) v. 1.1
- A recent (taken up to 1 year ago), representative tumour tissue sample (from primary tumour or from metastasis) must be available. Tissue must be a core needle biopsy, excisional or incisional biopsy. Biopsies of bone lesions that do not have a soft tissue component or decalcified bone tumour samples are also not acceptable. Exemptions possible by the sponsor’s decision

Exclusion Criteria
- Other malignancy active within the previous 2 years except for basal cell or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast, for which the participants have completed curative therapy.
- Prior anti-cancer therapy within less than 2 weeks before trial treatment administration.
- Any persistent unresolved toxicity from previous anti-cancer therapies of Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade ≥ 2 (except for peripheral neuropathy, alopecia, endocrine disorders that are controlled with replacement hormone therapy and asymptomatic laboratory abnormalities). Ongoing adjuvant treatments for previous cancers are allowed as concomitant treatments if they do not have direct anti-tumour effect on the index tumour (e.g. hormone-suppressing agents).
- Prior definitive radiation therapy within less than 4 weeks and prior palliative radiotherapy within less than 2 weeks before trial treatment administration. Radiopharmaceuticals should be expected to have cleared sufficiently from the participant’s body before trial treatment administration.
- Participants with brain or subdural metastases are not eligible, unless the metastases are asymptomatic and have been adequately treated with local therapy.
- Any severe active infection within 1 week of trial enrolment.
- Known positive tests for hepatitis B surface antigen or hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA; known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Screening test is not required unless participant has clinical findings suggestive of HIV, hepatitis B virus (HBV) or HCV infection.
- Major surgery within 4 weeks before the first dose of trial treatment or minor surgery within 1 week (participant must also have recovered from any surgery-related toxicities to less than CTCAE Grade 2).
- Immunosuppressive doses of systemic medications, such as steroids or absorbed topical steroids (doses >10 mg/day prednisone or equivalent) within 2 days before trial treatment administration.

- Use of other investigational medicinal products within 2 weeks or at least 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) before trial treatment administration, or any persistent unresolved toxicity from such treatment that, according to the judgement of the investigator, may pose a health risk for the participant, if taking part in the trial. For drugs such as investigational monoclonal antibodies with half-lives >10 days, at least 8 weeks is required. In addition, all visits (apart from survival follow-up) related to the use of another investigational medicinal product must be completed before dosing with trial treatments may commence.
