About this study

Official title: A Phase 1/2a, Multi-center, Dose Escalation, 2 Stages Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Anti-cancer Activity of Subcutaneously Administered KAHR-102 for the Treatment of Lymphoma Patients Who Express Both B7 and FasR

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and to determine the Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) and the Maximal Tolerated Dose (MTD) of KAHR-102.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will have a screening visit for determination of eligibility. Up to 40 evaluable subjects will be included in the study; up to 30 in stage 1, and 10 in stage 2.

The study is divided into 2 stages:

  • Dose escalation - Stage 1A and 1B
  • Dose Confirmation Phase - Stage 2

Stage 1A:

Will start with 3 subjects receiving premedication (20mg Dexamethasone Intravenous (IV), 10mg Loratadine Per Os (P.O), and 1gr Paracetamol (P.O), 1 hour before treatment) with 2 micrograms/kilograms (µg/kg) KAHR-102 subcutaneous (SC) injection every 14 days for 3 injections. 3 injections will be defined as 1 cycle.

Eligible subjects will be hospitalized for 48 hours following each study drug administration. Blood will be collected before and 24 hours (h) following the study drug administration for biochemistry, hematology and cytokine levels.

Pharmacokinetic (PK) samples will be collected during hospitalization for the first and third KAHR-102 SC injections. Sampling for PK will be repeated on Day 4, 7, 32 and 35.

Sampling for Anti Drug Antibodies (ADAs) will be taken before all 3 KAHR-102 SC injections. CT scan and ADAs will be repeated at Day 49.

Stage 1B:

Based on safety results from Stage 1A and Clinical Safety Committee (CSC) decision, 12 further eligible subjects will be assigned to 1 of 4 cohorts to receive a SC injection of KAHR-102 with pre-medication (20mg Dexamethasone (IV), 10mg Loratadine (P.O), and 1gr Paracetamol (P.O), all 1 hour before the KAHR-102 SC injection, once every 7 days for 3 injections starting with 2µg/kg KAHR-102 SC injection. 3 injections will be defined as 1 Cycle.

Eligible subjects will be hospitalized for 48 hours following each KAHR-102 SC injection.

Blood samples will be collected before and 24h following the administration of KAHR-102 SC injection for biochemistry, hematology and cytokines level.

PK samples will be collected during hospitalization for first and third KAHR-102 SC injections. PK will also be assessed on Days 4, 7 (before administration of second KAHR-102 SC injection), 18 and 21.

Sampling for ADA testing will be taken before administration of first and third KAHR-102 SC injections. CT scan and ADA sampling will be performed on Day 35.

Stage 2:

Following completion of Stage 1, safety assessment by CSC and determination of MTD will be performed. 10 subjects will be treated at MTD. KAHR-102 SC injection will be given every 7 days for 3 injections. 3 injections will be defined as 1 Cycle.

Subjects will be hospitalized during treatment for 48 hours following each KAHR-102 SC injection.

Blood will be collected before and 24h following the administration of KAHR-102 SC injection for biochemistry, hematology, cytokines level.

PK sampling will be taken during hospitalization for first and third KAHR-102 SC injections and repeated on days 4, 7(before administration of second injection), 18, 21.

Samples for ADA testing will be collected prior to the first and third KAHR-102 SC injections. At Day 35 ADA sampling and CT scan will be repeated.

Cycles will be repeated at a frequency of 28 days after third KAHR-102 SC injection of 1st cycle and 14 days after 2nd cycle and following cycles Treatment will be discontinued based on investigator decision if CT scan shows evidence of disease progression or for any safety issues. The process will be overseen by the CSC.

What participants receive

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

  • KAHR-102Drug

    KAHR-102 is a dual signaling protein (DSP).KAHR-102 will be administrated subcutaneously. In Stage 1A, 3 KAHR-102 SC injections will continue to be given every 14 days with an interval of 28 days after 1st cycle and 14 days after 2nd cycle and following cycles.

    In Stage 1B and Stage 2, subjects will be administered 3 KAHR-102 SC injections given every 7 days with an interval of 28 days after 1st cycle and 14 days after 2nd cycle and following cycles.

    Planned doses for stage 1:

    Cohort A: 2µg/kg Cohort B: 4 µg/kg Cohort C: 8 µg/kg Cohort D: 12 µg/kg Each cohort will only begin its first administration of KAHR-102 SC injection when the cohort preceding it will not meet criteria for a DLT (at least 7 days).

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate incidence of adverse events

    Safety, as determined by frequency, nature, and severity of adverse events; and the profile of dose limiting toxicities.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Blood samplings for KAHR-102 levels

    KAHR-102 pharmacokinetic profile by plasma concentrations.

  2. Blood sampling for Anti-Drug Antibodies (ADAs)

    Sampling for Anti-Drug Antibodies

    Measured: Stage 1A: Pre-dose day 1, 14, 28 in all cycles, day 49; Stages 1B and 2: Pre-dose day 1 and 28 in all cycles, day 35.

  3. Tumors measurements

    CT scan

    Measured: Stage 1A: Pre-dose, day 49; Stages 1B and 2: Pre-dose, day 35 and every 10 weeks on average.

  4. Optional "LUGANO" classification response

    Evaluation, staging, and assessment of response in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma

    Measured: Stage 1A: Pre-dose, day 49; Stages 1B and 2: Pre-dose, day 35 and every 10 weeks on average.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing KAHR-102 in people with Lymphoma, run by Kahr Medical.

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 22 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Aug 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Evaluate incidence of adverse events (time frame: Up to 9 months). 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 16 Aug 2018.
