A Phase II Study of Tesetaxel in Subjects Previously Treated With Chemotherapy for Metastatic Transitional Cell Carcinoma of the Urothelium

The intravenously administered taxanes, docetaxel and paclitaxel, alone and in combination
with other chemotherapy agents are active in patients with advanced and metastatic bladder
cancer, and agents of this class are a promising treatment option for some patients.

Tesetaxel is an orally administered taxane that is in development as treatment for subjects
with advanced cancers. This study is being conducted to determine the efficacy and safety of
tesetaxel administered to patients previously treated with chemotherapy for progressive
metastatic transitional cell carcinoma of the urothelium.
