From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors, such as breast, ovarian or prostate cancer, whose disease has progressed and who have used up standard treatments.
- Age
- 18 years or older
- Sex
- Women and men can join.
- Disease stage
- Locally advanced or metastatic breast, ovarian, prostate or other solid tumor that has progressed; standard therapies used up; at least one measurable lesion.
- Earlier treatment
- Standard treatments have been used up. Previous or current use of POLQ inhibitors is not allowed.
- Biomarker or test result
- People must be willing to give a tumor sample or blood sample to test for a BRCA mutation or other homologous recombination pathway deficiency.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Previous or current use of POLQ inhibitors
- Brain or meningeal metastasis with symptoms or not well controlled
- Another cancer within 5 years before the first dose (with some exceptions)
- Myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia

Who can take part
- Having signed the written Informed Consent Form (ICF)
- Male or female aged ≥18 years
- Life expectancy ≥12 weeks
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Score 0 or 1
- Patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer or other advanced solid tumors who have experienced disease progression, and available SOC therapies had been exhausted
- be willing to provide tumor tissue samples (fresh frozen [SF] or previously retained paraffin-embedded [FFPE] tumor tissue samples) or peripheral blood germline DNA or ctDNA sample to detect BRCA mutation, or other deficiency in the HR pathway (by the detection method of next generation sequencing [NGS])
- At least one measurable lesion according to RECIST v1.1
- No serious hematological, cardiopulmonary, or liver or kidney diseases other than the primary disease
- Adequate organ function and bone marrow function
Who cannot take part
- Previous or current use of POLQ inhibitors
- Other malignant tumors than the study tumors within 5 years prior to the first dose of the study drug, except for localized cancers that have been evidently cured or disease-free for at least 3 years, such as basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, prostate carcinoma in situ, carcinoma in situ of cervix, or carcinoma in situ of breast
- Major surgery or serious trauma within 4 weeks prior to the first dose of the study treatment or major surgery planned during the trial period, and none of the AEs related to surgery or major trauma have resolved (to ≤ CTCAE v5.0 Grade 1 or baseline level) before the first dose of the study drug
- History of use within 2 weeks prior to the first dose of the study treatment and need to use protocol-prohibited potent inhibitors or potent inducers of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4/BCRP/P-gp during the study
- Hypersensitivity to the active pharmaceutical ingredient or any excipient of SYN818
- Patients with Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or with features suggestive of MDS/AML
- Dysphagia or refractory nausea and vomiting, malabsorption, extracorporeal biliary shunts, or gastrointestinal disorders that affect drug absorption, e.g., Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or short bowel syndrome, or other malabsorption conditions
- Serious systemic diseases or laboratory abnormalities or other conditions that, at the Investigator's discretion, will make it unsuitable for the patient to participate in this clinical trial
- Central nervous system (CNS) metastasis or meningeal metastasis with clinical symptoms, or other evidence indicating that CNS metastasis or meningeal metastasis has not been adequately controlled
