- Conditions
- Non Small Cell Lung CancerMelanomaRenal Cell CarcinomaSolid TumorSquamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck
- Interventions
- Biological: AB248Biological: pembrolizumab
- Registration Number
- NCT05653882
- Lead Sponsor
- Asher Biotherapeutics, Inc.
- Brief Summary
This is a phase I, First-in-Human (FIH), open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and preliminary efficacy of AB248 as monotherapy OR in combination with pembrolizumab in adult participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The study will consist of a dose escalation and a dose expansion stage.

- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Duration of Response (DOR) according to RECIST version 1.1 Study Day 1 up to approximately 24 months Defined as time from date of first objective response (either CR or PR) to first documentation of radiographic disease progression.
Disease Control Rate (DCR) according to RECIST version 1.1 Study Day 1 up to approximately 24 months Defined as the percentage of patients who have achieved CR, PR, or stable disease.
Objective Response Rate (ORR) according to RECIST version 1.1 Study Day 1 up to approximately 24 months Defined as the proportion of subjects with confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR); a confirmed response is a response that persists on repeat-imaging ≥4 weeks after initial documentation of response.
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) according to RECIST version 1.1 Study Day 1 until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, assessed up to approximately 24 months Defined as the time from first dose of AB248 to first documentation of radiographic disease progression or death, whichever occurs first
Maximum observed blood concentration (Cmax) of AB248 Study Day 1 up to approximately 24 months Defined as assessments for measuring maximum blood concentration of AB248
Frequency of anti-drug antibodies (ADA)s to AB248 Study Day 1 up to approximately 24 months Defined as the frequency of ADA formation for immunogenicity assessments evaluated during study treatment up until 30 days after the final dose of study treatment.
Changes in CD8+ T cell density in tumor tissues Study Day 1 to approximately 1 month Defined as changes in immune-staining for CD8+ T cells density in tumor tissue from patients providing paired biopsies.
AUC Area under the Plasma Concentration versus Time Curve (AUC) of AB248 Study Day 1 up to approximately 24 months Defined as assessments for evaluating the Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve (AUC)
Overall Survival (OS) according to RECIST version 1.1 Study Day 1 up to time of death, assessed up to approximately 24 months Defined as the time from first dose of AB248 to the date of death.
Elimination half-life (t1/2) of AB248 Study Day 1 up to approximately 24 months Defined as the time required for half of the drug to be eliminated from the blood
Quantification of peripheral blood CD8+ T cell pharmacodynamics Study Day 1 up to approximately 24 months Defined as the volumetric enumeration of CD8+ T cells in whole blood as assessed by flow cytometry
