Trial summary

Claudiximab is a monoclonal antibody specific for gastric and gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas. Preclinically, claudiximab was shown to inhibit tumor growth and to kill cancer cells by indirect (complement-dependent cytoxicity, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity) and direct mechanisms (antiproliferative and… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Clinical First-in-human Single-dose Escalation Study Evaluating the Safety and Tolerability of Claudiximab (iMAB-362) in Hospitalized Patients With Advanced Gastroesophageal Cancer. A Multi-center, Phase I, Open-label, i.v. Infusion Study

Claudiximab is a monoclonal antibody specific for gastric and gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas. Preclinically, claudiximab was shown to inhibit tumor growth and to kill cancer cells by indirect (complement-dependent cytoxicity, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity) and direct mechanisms (antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects). The aim of this phase I study is to establish safety, toxicity and maximal tolerable dose of a single infusion of claudiximab in patients suffering from relapsing, advanced gastroesophageal and gastric adenocarcinoma

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ClaudiximabDrug

    Patients receive Claudiximab as intravenous infusion over 2 hours on day 1. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of Claudiximab until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose at which no dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is diagnosed in 3 patients or no more than 1 out of 6 patients exhibits a DLT.

    After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 4 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Claudiximab in people with Solid Tumors, run by Ganymed Pharmaceuticals GmbH at 6 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Germany, Latvia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determination of maximum tolerated dose of claudiximab (Phase I: toxicities as assessed by NCI CTCAE version 3.0) (time frame: Four weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00909025, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Nov 2024.
