About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Study of ZN-c3 as a Single Agent in Subjects With Solid Tumors

This is a Phase 1 open-label, multicenter study of ZN-c3 (also known as Azenosertib) monotherapy which consists of Dose Escalation, a Food Effect Cohort, and Dose Expansion.

Read the detailed description

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics of ZN-c3.

In Dose Escalation, the study will identify the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of ZN-c3 monotherapy in solid tumors.

The Food Effect cohort sub-study will examine ZN-c3 PK after a single dose and determine the bioavailability of ZN-c3 under fed and fasted conditions.

In Dose Expansion, single agent ZN-c3 will be evaluated at the RP2D in subjects with recurrent or persistent uterine serous carcinoma (USC) or subjects with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumor malignancies harboring biomarkers related to deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage pathways.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Dose Escalation

    To investigate the safety and tolerability of single agent ZN-c3, including identification of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), based on the incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) in DLT-evaluable subjects.

    Measured: Through completion, average of 1 year

  2. Food Effect Cohort

    To characterize and compare the PK (Cmax.) of ZN-c3 following a single dose of ZN-c3 under fed and fasting conditions.

    Measured: Through completion, approx 6 months

  3. Food Effect Cohort

    To characterize and compare the PK (Tmax) of ZN-c3 following a single dose of ZN-c3 under fed and fasting conditions.

    Measured: Through completion, approximately 6 months

  4. Food Effect Cohort

    To characterize and compare the PK (AUC0-last,AUC0-∞) of ZN-c3 following a single dose of ZN-c3 under fed and fasting conditions.

    Measured: Through completion approximately 6 month

  5. Food Effect Cohort

    To characterize and compare the PK (T1/2) of ZN-c3 following a single dose of ZN-c3 under fed and fasting conditions.

    Measured: Through completion, approximately 6 mth

  6. Dose Expansion

    To investigate the clinical activity of WEE1 inhibition based on the objective response rate (ORR) as defined by the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1

    Measured: Through completion, approximately 43 month

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Dose Escalation, Food Effect cohort & Dose Expansion

    To obtain preliminary estimates of antitumor efficacy of single agent ZN-c3 based on objective response rate (ORR) as defined by the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

    Measured: Through completion

  2. Food Effect Cohort

    To investigate electrocardiogram intervals (QTc Interval) via Holter monitoring after a single dose of ZN-c3 under fed and fasting conditions.

    Measured: Through completion

  3. Dose Escalation, Food Effect cohort and Dose Expansion

    To obtain preliminary estimates of antitumor efficacy of single agent ZN-c3 based on Duration of Response (DOR) as defined by the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

    Measured: Through completion.

  4. Dose Escalation, Food Effect cohort and Dose Expansion

    To obtain preliminary estimates of antitumor efficacy of single agent ZN-c3 based on Progression Free Survival (PFS) as defined by the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

    Measured: Through completion..

  5. Dose Escalation, Food Effect cohort and Dose Expansion

    To obtain preliminary estimates of antitumor efficacy of single agent ZN-c3 based on Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) defined as complete response, partial response or stable disease according to the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

    Measured: Through completion...

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Azenosertib in people with Solid Tumor, run by K-Group, Beta, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc at 8 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dose Escalation (time frame: Through completion, average of 1 year). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Mar 2026.
