About this study
In plain language
This study tests TT-10 and TT-4 Diacid alone and together in adults with certain advanced cancers when standard treatment has failed or is not an option. It will check side effects and find doses that people can safely take.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate TT-10, TT-4 and TT-10 + TT-4, (Dual Blockade) in participants with advanced selected solid tumors, who have failed or are not eligible for standard of care. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of TT-10, TT-4 Diacid, and combination therapy (TT-10 + TT-4 Diacid). 2. To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or phase 2 recommended dose of TT-10, TT-4 Diacid, and combination therapy (TT-10 + TT-4 Diacid). 3. To evaluate safety of combination therapy (TT-10 + TT-4 Diacid).
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- Be age 18 or older. You or your legal representative must give written consent, and you must be able to follow the study schedule.
- Have advanced kidney cancer after at least two standard drug treatments, or prostate cancer that has spread and resists hormone treatment. Prostate cancer requires prior taxane chemotherapy and a newer hormone drug, unless that drug was not safe for you.
- Have non-small cell lung cancer that has spread, with no suitable standard treatment and no more than two prior chemotherapy treatments for advanced cancer. Group C also accepts pleural mesothelioma (cancer of the lining around the lungs) that has spread, cannot be removed by surgery, and has had one to three prior drug treatments.
- Standard treatment must have failed, or no suitable treatment must be available. You must be able to do at least some daily activities; greater limits must be due to cancer, not other illnesses.
- Have cancer that can be measured using the study’s rules. Some people with prostate cancer that cannot be measured may qualify with a PSA blood test result of at least 2.0 ng/mL and study sponsor approval.
- Agree to a biopsy, which takes a small tissue sample. Some people may use a recent stored sample or receive approval to skip a risky biopsy.
- Have blood counts and liver and kidney test results that meet the study’s limits.
- If you can become pregnant, have a negative pregnancy test and use highly effective birth control or avoid sex that could cause pregnancy during treatment and for 120 days afterward. Men must agree to use highly effective birth control.
Who can't join
- Major surgery within four weeks before screening.
- Active cancer spread to the brain or spinal cord, or spread to their lining. Treated brain or spinal cord tumors may be allowed if they meet strict stability, scan, timing, and steroid-use rules.
- Radiation within two weeks before study treatment, with some one-week exceptions for short courses used to relieve symptoms. Radiation side effects must have healed, with no need for steroids and no radiation-related lung swelling.
- Cancer drug treatment within four weeks before study treatment. Some short-acting drugs need only a two-week break. Treatment side effects must be gone or mild.
- HIV infection.
- Hepatitis B that does not meet the study’s treatment rules. People with hepatitis B may qualify after at least four weeks of antiviral treatment if the virus cannot be detected in their blood.
- Past hepatitis C unless treatment to cure it ended at least four weeks before joining and the virus cannot be detected at screening.
- Need for medicines that weaken the immune system. The provided text cuts off before giving the full rule.

Official eligibility criteria
To be eligible for inclusion in the dose escalation cohorts or expansion cohorts in this study, participants must meet all of the following criteria: 1. Male or female participants must be ≥18 years of age on the day of signing the ICF. 2. Participants or their legal representative must be able to provide written informed consent to participate in the study prior to the performance of any study-specific procedures. 3. Diagnosis of histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced selected solid tumors: All Cohorts 1. RCC: Participants with locally advanced or metastatic RCC who have previously received at least two prior standard of care systemic regimens for advanced disease. Prior exposure to a checkpoint inhibitor and/or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) targeted therapy is permitted but not required. Prior HIF-2α inhibitor therapy is permitted and may count toward the number of prior systemic regimens. 2. CRPC: Participants with metastatic CRPC who have previously received a second-generation hormonal agent (unless contraindicated) and a taxane-based chemotherapy. 3. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): Participants with metastatic NSCLC that are intolerant or resistant to standard systemic therapy or for whom no standard therapy is available. Prior exposure to platinum-based chemotherapy should be limited to no more than two prior cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens (e.g. platinum doublets, docetaxel, gemcitabine, vinorelbine, taxanes) administered for advanced/metastatic disease. Adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy does not count toward this limit. Cohort C Only d. PM: Participants with unresectable, metastatic PM with any subtype that have progressed after, or are intolerant to, at least one line of standard systemic therapy (e.g., platinum-pemetrexed ± immune checkpoint inhibitor) and ≤3 prior lines of systemic therapy (biologic or chemotherapy are allowed). Maintenance therapy after 4-6 cycles of front-line chemotherapy is still considered 1 line of therapy and is not considered 2 separate therapies. 4. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) score 0 - 2 a. Participants with ECOG PS 2 must have performance decline attributable to cancer rather than comorbid conditions, in the judgment of the investigator. 5. Have measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 (Eisenhauer et al 2009) except as specified below and as assessed by the local site investigator/radiology. Lesions situated in a previously irradiated area are considered measurable if progression has been demonstrated in such lesions. 1. PM: modified RECIST (mRECIST) (Nowak et al 2018) will be applied for malignant pleural mesothelioma 2. Measurable CRPC: Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3; Scher et al 2016). Participants with CRPC who have metastatic disease that is non-measurable are eligible if screening PSA ≥2.0 ng/mL and with Sponsor approval 6. Failure to respond to standard therapy, or for whom no appropriate therapies are available (based on the judgment of the investigator) 7. Consent to baseline biopsy, with the following exceptions: 1. Participants whose only site(s) of disease are in areas considered moderate or high risk, as defined in Section 7.2.9 may be enrolled without a fresh biopsy with Sponsor approval; 2. Archival tissue may be submitted in lieu of a fresh biopsy if collected within 6 months of screening and without intervening systemic therapy. 8. Participants must have adequate hematologic function based on the following: 1. ANC ≥1.5 × 109/L 2. Platelet count ≥100 × 109/L 3. Hemoglobin ≥9.0 g/dL 9. Participants must have adequate hepatic function based on the following: 1. Total bilirubin \<1.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) (unless elevated due to Gilbert's syndrome) 2. ALT/AST ≤2.5 × ULN (≤5 × ULN for participants with known hepatic metastases) 10. Participants must have adequate renal function, defined as serum creatinine clearance ≥30 mL/min per Cockcroft-Gault formula. 11. For women of childbearing potential (WCBP): negative urine pregnancy test (UPT) within 1 week before first treatment (WCBP defined as a sexually mature woman who has not undergone surgical sterilization or who has not been naturally post-menopausal for at least 12 consecutive months for women \>55 years of age). WCBP should be placed on effective birth control directly after testing negative for pregnancy; if not, then WCBP should have a UPT on Day 1 of every cycle, prior to study intervention administration. Any positive or indeterminant UPT result must be confirmed by serum. a. Female participants of childbearing potential must use a highly effective mode of contraception or abstain from heterosexual activity for the duration of the study and for 120 days following the last dose of study intervention. A female is NOT of childbearing potential if she has undergone bilateral salpingoophorectomy or is menopausal, defined as an absence of menses for 12 consecutive months. Male participants must agree to use highly effective contraception. 12. Ability to adhere to the study visit schedule and all protocol requirements 13. Any gastrointestinal condition that would preclude the use of oral medications (e.g. difficulty swallowing, nausea, vomiting or malabsorption). 4.2 Exclusion Criteria Participants will be excluded from the study if they satisfy any of the following criteria at the Screening visit unless otherwise stated: Participants are to be excluded from the study if they meet any of the following criteria: 1. Major surgery within 4 weeks prior to Screening 2. Participants with active CNS metastases are excluded. a. Participants with treated CNS metastases are eligible provided all of the following are met: i.

Permitted exceptions: i. Physiologic corticosteroid replacement for documented adrenal insufficiency (e.g., hydrocortisone replacement) is permitted. ii. Inhaled, intranasal, topical steroids, and short courses of systemic steroids for non-immune indications (e.g., premedication for imaging contrast, antiemetic prophylaxis) may be permitted at the Investigator's discretion. iii. Local steroid injections (e.g., intra-articular) may be permitted if not expected to result in systemic immunosuppression. b. Washout: A minimum 14-day washout from systemic immunosuppressive therapy prior to first dose may be permitted based on Investigator judgment and Medical Monitor approval, provided the underlying condition is stable and the participant does not require ongoing immunosuppression. 9. Participants requiring administration of drugs known to be strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4, 2C9 or 2C19 10.
