About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b Study of ARGX-111 in Patients With Advanced Cancer Over-expressing the c-Met Protein.

This a first-in-human study of an antibody blocking the function of the oncogene c-met in patients with cancer.

Read the detailed description

This Phase 1b trial will characterize the safety profile of ARGX 111 and will thus provide the first elements towards establishing an accurate risk-benefit assessment for ARGX 111 in cancer patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Dose-limiting toxicity

    Number of patients with grade 3 or 4 toxicity

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Pharmacokinetic profiles (Cmax , Ctrough, AUC, Vd , clearance, and half-life)

    Measurement of drug concentration in the blood

    Measured: C1 D1 (pre, 0h, 2h, 6h, 12h, 24h), C1D8, C1D15; Cycle ≥2 o D1 pre-/post-dose

  2. Biomarkers (Hepatocyte growth factor; ADCC)

    measurements of cytokine changes in blood as a result of drug administration

    Measured: Base-line and pre-dose at each cycle for an average of 4 months

  3. Incidence of adverse events per dose level

    Measured: for an average of 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ARGX-111 in people with Cancer, run by argenx at 2 sites in Belgium.

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 17 inclusion and 15 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 Apr 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Belgium. 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?

Dose-limiting toxicity (time frame: 1 month). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 Apr 2017.
