Recruitment & Eligibility

• Status: Authorised-recruitment may be ongoing or finished
• Sex: All
• Target Recruitment: 60

Inclusion Criteria

1.Histological, cytological or radiological diagnosis of HCC, according to the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) / European Association for the Study of the Liver (EASL) criteria, in subjects that are refractory or not able to tolerate the standard therapy, or subjects for whom the standard therapy is not considered appropriate by the physician.
2.The subject has disease that is not amenable to a curative treatment approach (e.g., transplant, surgery, radiofrequency ablation) and unsuitable for or refractory to locoregional treatments (e.g., TACE).
3.At least one uni-dimensional measurable lesion by CT or MRI according to RECIST 1.1 which is either not previously treated by local therapy or, if treated, it has clearly progressed before the subject is recruited.
4.Phase I only: subjects must have disease relapsed or refractory to the standard of care treatment not exceeding 3 lines of prior systemic treatment. Subjects intolerant to previous treatment with TKIs are eligible.
Phase II: subjects must have disease relapsed or refractory to the standard of care treatment not exceeding 2 lines of prior systemic treatment. Subjects intolerant to previous treatment with TKIs are eligible.
A minimum of 14 days of treatment with prior TKI would be required to qualify as line of therapy.
5.Child-Pugh score < 6 (class A).
6.Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
7.Age > or =18 years old on day of consent.
8.No history of liver transplantation or not listed for high urgent transplantation.
9.Blood test adequate; adequate liver function, defined by the values of serum transaminases (ie, AST / ALT) < o = 5 x ULN [upper limit of normal (ULN)] and INR < o =1.5; adequate renal function, defined on the basis of serum creatinine value < o =1,5 ULN and creatinine clearance > 60 mL /min.
10.In case of active hepatitis B (HBV) infection the patient should receive antiviral therapy per local standard of care.
11.Female subjects must be surgically sterile or be postmenopausal or, if subjects of childbearing potential, must not be pregnant at screening and must agree to the use of effective contraception during the period of therapy and in the following 90 days after discontinuation of study treatment. Male subjects must be surgically sterile or must agree to use effective contraception during the period of therapy and in the following 90 days after discontinuation of study treatment.
12.With the exception of alopecia, resolution of all acute toxic effects of any prior systemic therapy, surgery or radiotherapy to NCI CTC (Version 5.0) Grade < o = 1 or to the baseline laboratory values as defined in Inclusion Criteria Number 9.
13.Able and willing to comply with scheduled visits, therapy plans, and laboratory tests required in this protocol.
14.Signed and dated IEC-approved Informed Consent Form.

Exclusion Criteria

1.Known fibrolamellar HCC or mixed hepato-cholangiocarcinoma.
2.Subjects with untreated or incompletely treated varices with bleeding or high risk for bleeding are excluded with the exception of subjects with history of prior variceal bleeding treated with adequate endoscopic therapy without any evidence of recurrent bleeding for at least 6 months prior to study entry and stable on optimal medical management at study entry.
3.Subjects with QTcF interval > o = 480 milliseconds or with risk factors for torsade de pointes or receiving treatment with concomitant medications known to prolong the QT/QTc interval that cannot be replaced with another treatment.
4.Ascites defined as CTCAE Grade> o =2. Subjects who have been on a stable medication regimen for at least 2 months to manage ascites are eligible if they show ascites Grade < 2. Subjects with clinically undetectable ascites who are Child A with detectable ascites at CT/MRI are eligible.
5.Uncontrolled high blood pressure .
6.Direct-Acting Antivirals (DAA) at the time of treatment start; previous HCV treatment with DAAs is allowed.
7.Known history of or current encephalopathy.
8.Known brain metastases or evidence of leptomeningeal disease.
9.Known history of allergic reactions to polysorbate 80.
10.Any of the following in the past 6 months: myocardial infarction, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, unstable angina, coronary/peripheral artery bypass graft, symptomatic congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident or transient ischemic attack, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis.
11.Major surgery, other than diagnostic surgery, within 4 weeks before treatment start.
12.Any anticancer agent within 4 weeks or, in absence of toxicity, 5 half-lives (within 6 weeks for nitrosureas, mitomycin C and liposomal doxorubicin) before treatment start.
13.Radiation therapy within 4 weeks or radionuclide treatment (eg, I-131 or Y-90) within 6 weeks before treatment start.
14.Untreated uncontrolled bacterial, viral, or fungal infections .

21.Subjects with active alcohol and/or substances abuse.
22.Any known organ dysfunction, serious illness, acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition, or laboratory abnormality which, in the Investigator’s opinion, may increase the risk associated/interfere with study participation, or with the interpretation of the results.
23.Subjects who, within 7 days prior to the first NMS-01940153E intake, are receiving or received strong inducers of FMO1and FMO3.
