Study of AGEN1571 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors
- Conditions
- Advanced Solid Tumor
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT05377528
- Lead Sponsor
- Agenus Inc.
- Brief Summary
This is an open-label, Phase 1, 2-part trial to determine recommended phase 2 doses (RP2Ds) and evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacodynamic profiles of AGEN1571 both as a monotherapy and in combination with balstilimab (PD-1 inhibitor) and/or botensilimab (2-agent combination or 3-agent combination) in participants diagnosed with advanced solid tumors.
Part 1 will be the dose escalation phase to determine the RP2D of AGEN1571 monotherapy or AGEN1571 in combination with balstilimab and/or botensilimab. Part 2 will be the dose expansion phase for specific disease indications. Participants will receive study treatment for up to 2 years, or until any disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or participant wishes to withdraw consent for any reason.

-
Participants with a history of prior malignancy are eligible if treatment was completed ≥ 2 years prior to the first dose of study treatment and the participant has no evidence of disease. Participants who have been maintained on stable doses of antineoplastic hormonal therapy within that 2-year time frame may also be eligible with approval of the Medical Monitor. Participants with a history of prior early-stage basal/squamous cell skin cancer, or noninvasive or in situ cancers, who have undergone definitive treatment at any time are also eligible.
-
Participants must provide a sufficient and adequate formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tumor tissue sample (biopsy) collected after the last dose of prior anti-cancer therapy and before the first dose of study treatment from a site not previously irradiated and agree to a mandatory on-treatment biopsy, if clinically feasible. If a potential study participant cannot provide a tumor tissue sample as specified above, enrollment may be possible following discussion and approval from the Medical Monitor.
-
Female participants of childbearing potential must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test at screening (within 72 hours of first dose of study medication) with repeat urine or serum pregnancy test on Day 1 of each cycle and at the End of Treatment visit. If a urine pregnancy test is positive, results must be confirmed with a serum pregnancy test. Non-childbearing potential is defined as follows:
- ≥ 50 years of age and has not had menses for greater than 1 year.
- Amenorrheic for ≥ 2 years without a hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy and a follicle-stimulating hormone value in the postmenopausal range upon pre-study (screening) evaluation.
- Status is post hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or tubal ligation.
Female participants who are diagnosed with a tumor that is known to secrete human chorionic gonadotropin must be certified not pregnant based on clinical evidence and investigator judgment.
Female participants of child-bearing potential must agree to use highly effective contraceptive measures starting with the screening visit through 90 days after the last dose of study treatment.
Note: Abstinence is acceptable if this is the established and preferred contraception for the participant.
-
Male participants with a female partner(s) of childbearing potential must agree to use highly effective contraceptive measures throughout the study starting with the screening visit through 90 days after the last dose of study treatment is received. Males with pregnant partners must agree to use a condom; no additional method of contraception is required for the pregnant partner.
Note: Abstinence is acceptable if this is the established and preferred contraception for the participant.
-

The following washout windows are acceptable from prior treatments, that is participants with time periods less than the following should be excluded:

- A 1-week washout is permitted for palliative radiation to non-central nervous system (CNS) disease.
- Small molecule targeted investigational therapies and tyrosine kinase inhibitors ≥ 14 days or 5 half-lives is acceptable (that is, < 14 days or < 5 half-lives should be excluded).
- Having a previous severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 vaccine > 7 days before administration is acceptable. For vaccines requiring more than 1 dose, the full series should be completed prior to Cycle 1 Day 1 (C1D1), when feasible, and when the delay in initiation of study treatment would not put the study participants at risk.
- Prior radiation therapy to the CNS within 2 weeks before first treatment.
-
Persistent toxicity of National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 5.0 Grade >1 severity that is related to prior therapy.
a. Sensory neuropathy or alopecia of Grade ≤ 2 is acceptable. Stable, compensated endocrinopathies (hypothyroidism, adrenal insufficiency, hypophysitis) that are the sequelae of immune-mediated adverse events > Grade 1 are acceptable.

-
Active CNS metastases. Note: Participants are eligible if CNS metastases have been treated and participants are radiologically and clinically stable.
