A Study of AP601 in Patients With Locally Unresectable Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors
- Registration Number
- NCT07165067
- Lead Sponsor
- AP Biosciences Inc.
- Brief Summary
A Phase 1, Open-Label Study of the Safety, Tolerability,Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics and Clinical Activity of AP601 in Patients with Solid Tumours.The study is designed to find the highest dose of AP601 that can be given safely. Participants will be assigned to one of six cohorts. Each cohort will receive a different dose of the study medication, AP601, based on the body weight. Each cohort will initially enrol 1-3 participants. If no serious side effects are seen in the first participant(s), the next cohort will receive the next dose level.
- Detailed Description
Participants will receive a single infusion of AP601 once every 2 weeks (14 days) (Q2W) for up to 12 months.
Part 1 (Dose Escalation):
Part 1 is a dose escalation part, using an accelerated 3+3 design. Up to 6 dose levels are planned to be evaluated in Part 1.
Cohort 1 - 0.5mg/kg (1-6 participants) Cohort 2 - 1.25 mg/Kg (1-6 participants) Cohort 3 - 2.5 mg/Kg (3-6 participants) Cohort 4- 5.0 mg/Kg (3-6 participants) Cohort 5- 7.5 mg/Kg (3-6 participants) Cohort 6- 10.0 mg/Kg. (3-6 participants) At the first dose level, a single participant will be enrolled and observed for dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and adverse events (AEs) for 28 days (2 treatment cycles). If the participant does not experience any DLTs, then a new participant may be dosed at the next higher dose level and observed for the DLT period (28 days). There will be a maximum of 2 single-patient cohorts.
If in any of the single-patient cohorts a patient experiences a DLT, an additional 2 patients will be enrolled at that dose level and evaluated using 3+3 design rules.
Cohorts 3 and above will all use a standard 3+3 design, even if toxicity was not seen in the single-patient Cohorts 1 and 2.
Part 2 (Dose Expansion):
A dose expansion part may be initiated following completion of the dose escalation cohorts.
