Processa Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: PCSA), a clinical-stage pharmaceutical company focused on developing the next generation of chemotherapeutic drugs with improved efficacy and safety, reported that dosing of the first patient in its phase 2 clinical trial evaluating NGC-Cap has begun. The clinical trial is evaluating NGC-Cap for the treatment of advanced or metastatic breast cancer. NGC-Cap combines the administration of PCS6422, PCSA’s irreversible dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (“DPD”) enzyme inhibitor, with low doses of capecitabine.
“Dosing the first patient in this phase 2 trial is a significant step in the development of NGC-Cap as a more effective and better tolerated treatment than widely used capecitabine and 5-FU,” said Processa Pharmaceuticals president of research and development David Young, PharmD, PhD, in the press release. “We expect this phase 2 trial to build upon NGC-Cap’s positive phase 1b findings, and we look forward to announcing the results from our interim analysis of this phase 2 trial in mid-2025.”
