A Study of Tinengotinib (TT-00420) in Combination With Standard Treatments in People With Prostate Cancer, TIP Trial
- Study HIC#:2000041344
- Last Updated:03/03/2026
This phase Ib/II trial tests the safety, side effects, best dose, and effectiveness of tinengotinib (TT-0420) in combination with abiraterone acetate and prednisone or enzalutamide in treating patients with prostate cancer that continues to grow despite efforts to block male hormones (castration resistant) and has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic). Tinengotinib, a multi-target kinase inhibitor, works by attaching to and blocking several different proteins that send signals to tumor cells to grow. By blocking these proteins, tinengotinib may help slow or stop the growth of tumor cells. Abiraterone acetate decreases the activity of reproductive hormones (androgens). Androgens stimulate prostate tumor cells to grow. By decreasing the activity of androgens, abiraterone acetate may help slow or stop the growth of tumor cells. Prednisone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response and is given with abiraterone acetate to reduce or prevent some of the side effects of abiraterone acetate. Enzalutamide is a type of drug called an androgen receptor inhibitor. It works by blocking the effects of androgen, which helps stop the growth and spread of tumor cells. Giving tinengotinib in combination with abiraterone acetate and prednisone or with enzalutamide may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in treating patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Participants ≥ 18 years old, with signed informed consent
- Histologically confirmed carcinoma of the prostate (neuroendocrine differentiation is allowed, but pure small cell carcinoma is not permitted)
- Metastatic disease documented by at least 2 bone lesions on whole body radionuclide bone scan, or soft tissue disease documented by computed tomography (CT) scan/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Note: Metastatic disease seen only on PET imaging does not qualify
- Current ongoing therapy and observed tolerance with full standard dose of abiraterone acetate (1000 mg QD) or enzalutamide (160 mg QD) at the time of study entry. Enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate must have been started at least 90 days before screening assessments. An interruption of dosing of a maximum of 30 days is permitted prior to resuming the agent. Please note: Patients who are on a reduced dose or are intolerant of abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide at screening will not be eligible for study participation
- Progressive disease on enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate documented by PCWG3 criteria for study entry. Progressive disease is defined as at least one of the following: * PSA progression defined as a minimum of 2 rising PSA levels with a minimum of a 1-week interval between each determination, reaching a minimum PSA value of 1.0 ng/mL * Nodal or visceral progression as defined by PCWG3-modified RECIST 1.1 * Appearance of 2 or more new lesions on a bone scan
- At least one of the following at study entry: * RECIST 1.1 measurable disease at baseline; i.e., soft tissue tumor lesions or pathologically enlarged lymph nodes that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension OR * A PSA of 2.0 ng/mL or above
- Participants must be medically or surgically castrated with ongoing androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for ≥ 90 days or have documented history of bilateral orchiectomy
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) 0 - 2
- Absolute neutrophil count ≥ 1.5 x 10^9 /L (confirmed at screening)
- Hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL (confirmed at screening)
- Platelets ≥ 75 x 10^9 /L (confirmed at screening)
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST/serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase [SGOT]) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT/serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase [SGPT]) ≤ 2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) or ≤ 5.0 x ULN if liver metastases are present (confirmed at screening)
- Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN; or < 2.5 x ULN if Gilbert syndrome or disease involving liver (confirmed at screening)
- Creatinine clearance > 30 mL/min (Cockcroft-Gault formula) (confirmed at screening)
- Adequate blood coagulation function as evidence by an international normalized ratio (INR) ≤ 1.5 unless participant is on anticoagulants (confirmed at screening)
- Tumor biopsy during screening is required if safe and feasible. If archival tissue is available from a previous biopsy performed within 90 days of screening assessments, a repeat screening biopsy is not required even if safe and feasible. If neither option is possible, archival tissue from any timepoint should be requested, if available
Exclusion Criteria
- Pure small cell carcinoma
- Previous exposure to multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapies
- Uncontrolled hypertension (persistent systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mm Hg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mm Hg) or known coronary artery disease with angina. Patients with known hypertension must be on antihypertensive medication with blood pressures (BPs) generally < 140/90 to be eligible
- History of congestive heart failure of class II-IV New York Heart Association criteria, or serious cardiac arrhythmia requiring treatment (except atrial fibrillation, paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia), history of myocardial infarction within 6 months of study entry, or prolongation of QTc > 480 msec using Fridericia formula (Fridericia’s formula–corrected QT interval [QTcF]) > 480 msec at screening (except for participants with pacemakers, where there is no QTc cutoff)
- Any prior or concurrent malignancy whose natural history or treatment has the potential to interfere with the safety or efficacy assessments
- Symptomatic and/or untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases
- Pre-existing duodenal stent or any gastrointestinal disorder or defect which would interfere with absorption of study medication, as determined by the Investigator
- Persistent requirement for corticosteroids ( at equivalent of > 10 mg QD prednisone) within 14 days before study treatment start
- Other anticancer therapies within 3 weeks of study treatment start, or within 5 half-lives of study treatment start for non-cytotoxic oral agents, whichever is shorter; with the exception of androgen deprivation therapy, enzalutamide, or abiraterone acetate which should be continued through study treatment
- Palliative radiation within 2 weeks of study treatment start
