Summary
This is a multicenter, open label, nonrandomized, sequential dose escalation/cohort expansion, multiple dose study designed to evaluate the safety, toxicity, and PK as well as preliminary efficacy of BTX-A51 in subjects with advanced solid tumors and NHL. The study will be done in two phases, described below. Phase 1a (Dose Escalation Phase): The Phase 1a portion is designed to determine the dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), maximum tolerated dose (MTD), and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of orally administered BTX-A51. BTX-A51 will be administered once daily on a weekly schedule of 5 days on/2 days off. Dose escalation will proceed according to a modified 3+3 design. Each cycle will consist of 28 days (4 weeks), and the DLT observation period will be the first cycle (i.e., 28 days after initiation of dosing). A DLT may be observed in no more than 0 out of 3 or 1 out of 6 subjects who have completed the DLT observation period before the next cohort initiates accrual. Barring DLT, sequential dose escalation of BTX-A51 is planned with up to a total of 6 dose levels; on the basis of these an MTD will be identified. The MTD is defined as the highest dose level with a subject incidence of DLTs of 0 or 1 out of 6 during the first 28 days of study drug dosing. A minimum of 6 subjects needs to be treated at a dose level before this dose level can be deemed as the MTD. Phase 1b (Cohort Expansion Phase): Dose expansion may begin when the RP2D has been determined. Up to 40 additional subjects will be enrolled to evaluate safety and preliminary efficacy of BTX-A51 in subjects with documented MYC genomic amplified/overexpressed tumors. Dosing in this phase of the study consists of the first cycle of therapy (i.e., 28 days).

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- Demonstration of understanding and voluntarily signing of an informed consent form

- Age ≥ 18 years

- Histologically or cytologically documented, incurable or metastatic solid tumor or B
cell NHL that is refractory to or intolerant of all standard therapy or for which no
standard therapy is available

- Expansion Phase only: Documentation of MYC genomic amplification/overexpression by
tumor or blood-based analysis.

- Measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1
(RECIST v1.1). NHL subjects must have bi-dimensionally measurable disease on cross
sectional imaging by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as
defined by Lugano criteria (Cheson, Fisher, et al., 2014).

- Adequate organ function

- Females of childbearing age must not be pregnant at time of Screening/beginning of
treatment and agree to either abstain from sexual intercourse or use highly effective
methods of contraception (for up to 3 months after last dose of study drug)

- Males sexually active with a woman of childbearing age must agree to use barrier
method of birth control during and after the study (up to 3 months after last dose of
study drug)

Exclusion Criteria:

- Life expectancy <3 months, as determined by the Investigator.

- Treatment with any local or systemic antineoplastic therapy (including chemotherapy,
hormonal therapy, or radiation) within 3 weeks prior to first dose of BTX-A51

- Chronic use of corticosteroids in excess of 10 mg daily of prednisone or equivalent
within 4 weeks prior to first dose of BTX-A51

- Major trauma or major surgery within 4 weeks prior to first dose of BTX-A51.

- Adverse events from prior anti-cancer therapy that have not resolved to Grade ≤1
except for alopecia or Grade ≤2 immunotherapy-related thyroid toxicity.

- History of, or known, central nervous system (CNS) disease involvement, or prior
history of NCI CTCAE Grade ≥3 drug-related CNS toxicity.

- Clinically significant cardiac disease

- Active uncontrolled systemic fungal, bacterial, mycobacterial, or viral infection

- Known positive test result for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or acquired immune
deficiency syndrome (AIDS)

- Active hepatitis C virus (HCV) or hepatitis B virus (HBV)

- Second primary malignancy that has not been in remission for greater than 3 years

- Any serious underlying medical (e.g., pulmonary, renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, or
neurological) or psychiatric condition (e.g., alcohol or drug abuse, dementia or
altered mental status) or any issue that would limit compliance with study
requirements

- Pregnant, lactating, or breastfeeding.

- Participation or plans to participate in another interventional clinical study.
