HYPOTHESIS: MW151 intervention during whole-brain radiotherapy for intracranial
metastases is safe and will mitigate neurocognitive decline.
RATIONALE: There is non-clinical evidence that MW151 reduces brain inflammation and
improves neurocognitive outcomes in animal models of radiation therapy induced cognitive
dysfunction, and in animal models of other CNS disorders.
PURPOSE: This feasibility trial will study whether MW151 mitigates neurocognitive decline
following whole-brain radiotherapy in adult patients with intracranial metastases from
solid tumors.

In Part A, 10 subjects will receive MW151 in an open label evaluation. At least 5 of
these subjects will be male. For each subject, safety and tolerability data for the first
24 hours will be reviewed prior to the continuation of dosing. Subjects will also be
evaluated for safety during week 1, during week 2, and at week 4. Once the data from Part
A have been reviewed by the Safety Monitoring Committee (SMC) for males and females, an
additional 30 subjects will be recruited to Part B. These subjects will also receive open
label MW-151.
In both parts A and B subjects will take study drug (males), or the first daily dose of
study drug (females) before WBRT which will be administered once a day (3Gy), five days a
week (Monday to Friday) for two weeks, for total of ten treatments and 30 Gy.
