Primary Outcome Measures

MTD is defined as the dose level at which no more than 1 patient out of 6 experiences a DLT at the end of Cycle 1. RP2D is the highest dose administered at which no more than 1 patient out of 6 experiences a DLT at the end of Cycle 1 and the dosage form, including the dosing frequency, is acceptable to patients.
Part 2 (Dose Expansion): Arm 1 (mCRPC only): Number of patients with change from Baseline in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) at the end of Cycles 3 and 6

Items measuring pain severity (including 'worst pain') are rated on an 11 point numeric rating scale ranging from 0=No pain to 10=Pain as bad as you can imagine. Higher scores mean a worse outcome.
Part 1 and Part 2: Number of patients with skeletal-related events (SREs) and symptomatic skeletal events (SSEs)
The effects of NOX66 on pain and other cancer-related signs and symptoms will be explored. Skeletal-related events and SSEs will be evaluated based on the patient's clinical history and examinations, including but not limited to incidence of fractures and pain.
Part 1 and Part 2: Change of dose of morphine administration and analgesic use
The effects of NOX66 on pain and other cancer-related signs and symptoms will be explored. The dose of morphine administration and analgesic use will be assessed based on the patient's concomitant medication use assessment.

The effects of NOX66 on pain and other cancer-related signs and symptoms will be explored. The frequency of morphine administration and analgesic use will be assessed based on the patient's concomitant medication use assessment.
Part 1 and Part 2: Quality of life (QoL) as assessed by change from Baseline in Patient Experience Questionnaire (PEQ)
The Sponsor has developed a questionnaire to evaluate the patient's experience with the suppository dosage form. This will consist of a set of 10 questions, with some questions requiring simple yes or no answers, and other questions are to be rated on a scale of 10 (range 1 to 10) where higher scores mean a worse outcome.
Part 1 and Part 2: QoL as assessed by change from Baseline in European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire for Cancer Patients (EORTC-QLQ-C30)
The questionnaire assesses important functioning domains (e.g., physical, emotional, social) and common cancer symptoms (e.g., fatigue, pain, nausea, vomiting, appetite loss). The instrument is composed of 30 items. All symptom scales range from 1-4 with higher values representing higher levels of symptoms, except for the items that evaluate overall quality of life which are rated on a 7-point scale (range 1-7) where higher score represent a better quality of life.
Part 1 and Part 2: QoL as assessed by change from Baseline in Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Prostate (FACT-P) (mCRPC only)
The FACT-P questionnaire is a relevant, worldwide tool used for assessing the health-related QoL in men with prostate cancer. The FACT-P is a 39-item questionnaire composed of the FACT-General (FACT-G) original subscales (Physical Well-being, Social/Family Well-being, Emotional Well-being and Functional Well-being) and a Prostate Cancer Subscale. Each item is rated on a 5-point scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). A higher score indicates a better QoL.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a Phase 1b/Phase 2a, open-label, multicenter study to determine the safety, tolerability, recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) properties of idronoxil when rectally administered as a suppository (NOX66) to patients with any solid tumor (Part 1) and patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), breast cancer (BC) and non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (Part 2) who are eligible for low-dose external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) for at least one symptomatic or minimally symptomatic lesion (for the prevention of symptoms).
Detailed Description
The study is divided into 2 parts: Part 1 (dose escalation) and Part 2 (dose expansion). The study design allows an exploration of different doses of NOX66 (800 mg, 1200 mg, 1600 mg and 2400 mg) with safety monitoring to ensure the safety of the patients. In Cycle 1, NOX66 will be administered for 14 days followed by a 7-day rest period on a 21-day cycle. From Cycle 2 onwards, NOX66 will be administered for 7 days followed by a 7-day rest period on a 14-day cycle. Patients will continue to receive NOX66 on a cyclical basis until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, start of a new anticancer therapy, withdrawal of the patient by the Investigator or the end of study is reached.
