About this study

Official title: An Open Label Phase Ib Dose Escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Immunogenicity and Maximum Tolerated Dose of Anetumab Ravtansine in Combination With Pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 and Cisplatin 75 mg/m2 in Subjects With Mesothelin-expressing Predominantly Epithelial Mesothelioma or Nonsquamous Non-small-cell Lung Cancer

What participants receive

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

  • BAY 94-9343Drug

    In Part 1 of the study, anetumab ravtansine (BAY 94-9343) will be administered by 1-hour IV infusion with a starting dose of 5.5mg/kg(BW) on Day 1 of every treatment cycle (Q3W).

    In Part 2 of the study, anetumab ravtansine (BAY 94-9343) will be administered on Day 2 of Cycle 1 and then on Day 1 of Cycle 2 and all subsequent cycles (Q3W)

  • PemetrexedDrug

    Administered at the dose of 500 mg/m2 body surface area (BSA) by 10-minute IV infusion on Day 1 of every treatment cycle (Q3W) in both parts of the study

  • CisplatinDrug

    Administered at the dose of 75 mg/m2 (BSA) by 2-hour IV infusion on Day 1 of every treatment cycle (Q3W) in both parts of the study

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum tolerated dose (MTD)

    MTD is defined as the highest dose of oral anetumab ravtansine (BAY 94-9343) administered in combination with IV pemetrexed and cisplatin that can be given such that not more than 1 of 6 subjects at a given dose level experience a DLT (dose-limiting toxicity).

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  2. Number of subjects with adverse events and serious adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Plasma concentrations of anetumab ravtansine (BAY 94-9343), pemetrexed and cisplatin

    C (treatment cycle), D (day); Each cycle is defined as a period of 21 days

    Measured: - BAY 94-9343: C1D1,D2,D3,D8,D15, C2D1, C3D1,D2,D3,D8,D15, C4D1, C6D1 and subsequent cycles every 3rd cycle up to 2 years or until discontinuation of study treatment, whichever comes first - Pemetrexed: C1D1, D2, D3 - Cisplatin: C1D1, D2, D3

  2. Tumor response evaluation following mRECIST criteria to determine the number of patients with CR, PR, SD or PD

    CR (complete response); PR (partial response); SD (stable disease); PD (progressive disease); Each cycle is defined as a period of 21 days

    Measured: Baseline, every 8 weeks up to cycle 12; then every 12 weeks from cycle 13 up to 2 years, or until discontinuation of study treatment, whichever comes first

  3. Number of patients with a positive titer of anti-drug antibodies

    Each cycle is defined as a period of 21 days

    Measured: Day1 of C1, C3, C6 and subsequent cycles every 3rd cycle up to 2 years or until discontinuation of study treatment, whichever comes first

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BAY 94-9343, Pemetrexed and Cisplatin in people with Medical Oncology, run by Bayer 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 6 inclusion and 12 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 7 Nov 2019. 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 United States, Italy. 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?

Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) (time frame: Up to 2 years). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 7 Nov 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
