Overview
Brief Summary
This study was planned as an open-label, multi-site, Phase I/IIa dose escalation, safety, and pharmacokinetic (PK) trial of BNT141 followed by expansion cohorts in patients with Claudin 18.2 (CLDN18.2)-positive tumors.
The sponsor decided to stop the development of BNT141 on 24 July 2023 and the study was terminated early.
Detailed Description
The study design consisted of three parts: * Part 1A was a dose escalation of BNT141 as monotherapy in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic CLDN18.2-positive solid tumors for which there was no available standard therapy considered to confer clinical benefit, or the patient was not a candidate for such available therapy. The dose of BNT141 was planned to be escalated until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of BNT141 as monotherapy was defined. However, due to the early study termination, the dose of BNT141 was not fully escalated as planned per protocol (i.e., only four doses were tested, i.e., 0.15 mg/kg, 0.30 mg/kg, 0.45 mg/kg, and 0.60 mg/kg). Once the MTD was reached, up to 10 additional patients with CLDN18.2 expressing pancreatic and biliary tract cancers were planned to be enrolled at the MTD level to obtain additional data on safety, PK and pharmacodynamics (PD). Eligible tumor types were gastric cancer, gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) and esophageal adenocarcinoma, pancreatic, biliary tract (cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder cancer), and mucinous ovarian cancers. Additionally, patients with specific tumors (including colorectal cancer, non-small-cell lung cancer, gastric subtype of endocervical adenocarcinoma) where there is scientific evidence that the CLDN18.2 could be elevated could be tested for CLDN18.2 expression. * Part 1B was planned to be a dose escalation of BNT141 in combination with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine in patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic CLDN18.2-positive pancreatic adenocarcinoma or cholangiocarcinoma who were eligible for treatment with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine. Part 1B intended to define the MTD and/or RP2D of the combination. Once the MTD was reached, up to 10 additional patients with CLDN18.2-expressing pancreatic adenocarcinoma or cholangiocarcinoma were planned to be enrolled at the MTD level to obtain additional data on safety, PK and PD. The MTD of BNT141 in combination with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine in Part 1B was planned to not exceed the monotherapy BNT141 MTD determined in Part 1A. * Part 2 (Expansion) was planned to consist of two predefined expansion cohorts in patients with CLDN18.2-positive solid tumors eligible for treatment with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine. Part 1B and Part 2 did not proceed and no participant was enrolled in Part 1B and Part 2.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Occurrence of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) Within a Patient Including Grade ≥ 3, Serious, Fatal TEAE by Relationship
Time Frame: From start of BNT141 treatment until the second Safety Follow-up Visit (60 ± 7 days after last dose), up to 30 weeks.
All TEAEs are included, i.e., AEs with an onset date on or after the first dose of BNT141 (if the AE was absent before the first dose) or worsened after the first dose of BNT141 (if the AE was present before the first dose). AEs with an onset date \>60 days after the last dose of BNT141 are included only if assessed as related to BNT141 by the investigator. Intensity of AEs was graded according to the NCI CTCAE v5.0, i.e.,: Grade 1 - Mild, Grade 2 - Moderate, Grade 3 - Severe, Grade 4 - Life-threatening consequences; urgent urgent intervention indicated, Grade 5 - Death related to AE
Occurrence of Dose Reductions and Discontinuation of BNT141 Due to TEAEs
Time Frame: From start of BNT141 treatment until the second Safety Follow-up Visit (60 ± 7 days after last dose), up to 30 weeks.
All TEAEs are included, i.e., AEs with an onset date on or after the first dose of BNT141 (if the AE was absent before the first dose) or worsened after the first dose of BNT141 (if the AE was present before the first dose). AEs with an onset date \>60 days after the last dose of BNT141 are included only if assessed as related to BNT141 by the investigator
Occurrence of Dose-limiting Toxicities (DLTs) Within a Patient During the DLT Evaluation Period
Time Frame: First treatment cycle (From first dose up to 21 days after first dose)
Serious AEs, non-serious Grade ≥ 3 non-hematological and hematological AEs as defined per DLT criteria and clinically significant abnormal laboratory values Grade ≥ 3 were collected and considered a DLT if assessed by the investigator to be at least possibly related to BNT141. Toxicities clearly not related to BNT141 (e.g., progressive disease, comorbidity, etc.) were not considered a DLT. The NCI CTCAE v.5.0 was used to grade the intensity of AEs.
