BioMedNewsBreaks — Oncotelic Therapeutics, Inc. (OTCQB: OTLC) Expands Sapu003 Phase 1b Program, Appoints Global CRO for International Study Execution

Oncotelic Therapeutics (OTCQB: OTLC) and Sapu Nano announced the expansion of its Phase 1b clinical development program for Sapu003 (Everolimus for Injection) and the appointment of Global Clinical Trials (GCT) as the lead contract research organization for international execution of Study SP-03-B101. The move follows recent regulatory approvals supporting study expansion and marks the transition of the Sapu003 program from an Australia-based clinical effort toward a broader multinational development strategy, including planned expansion into Europe.

SP-03-B101 is an open-label Phase 1b dose-escalation study evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and preliminary anti-tumor activity of Sapu003 in patients with advanced mTOR-sensitive solid tumors. The company said GCT has already completed key regulatory submissions ahead of schedule and initiated clinical operations, site activation and study management activities. Sapu003 is an intravenous formulation of everolimus developed using Sapu Nano’s Deciparticle(TM) platform, which is designed to improve drug delivery and provide more predictable systemic exposure than oral administration while supporting future global registrational studies.
