MNA-3521-011 study is a multi-centre, open-label, first-in-human, phase 1a/b clinical study dose/dose frequency escalation followed by a cohort expansion part. MTL-CEBPA is administered as monotherapy or in combination with sorafenib to patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma and cirrhosis of the liver. All participants will be considered unsuitable for liver tumour resection and/or is refractory to radiotherapy and other loco-regional therapies.
MTL-CEBPA consists of a double stranded RNA formulated into a SMARTICLES® liposomal nanoparticle and is designed to activate the CEBPA gene.
