About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Two Part Open-Label, Phase 1B Clinical Study of CMP-001 Administered Either in Combination With Pembrolizumab or as a Monotherapy in Subjects With Advanced Melanoma

This study will be conducted in two parts: Part 1 will be conducted using a Dose Escalation and Expansion design. The Part 1 Dose Escalation Phase of this study will identify a safe and tolerable dose to be further evaluated in the Part 1 Dose Expansion phase. Part 2 of the study will be conducted in parallel with the Part 1 Dose Expansion Phase and will evaluate the safety and efficacy of CMP-001 when administered as a monotherapy. A Treatment Extension to assess the safety profile of CMP-001 when given in combination with pembrolizumab or as monotherapy will be available to those who are currently being treated in either Part 1 or Part 2 of this study at the time of protocol Amendment 9, v10.0.

Read the detailed description

Former Sponsor Checkmate Pharmaceuticals

The primary objective of Part 1 of the study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and schedule of CMP-001 when given in combination with pembrolizumab in participants with advanced melanoma.

The primary objective of Part 2 of the study is to assess and describe the safety profile of CMP-001 when administered as monotherapy.

The primary objective of the Treatment Extension is to assess the safety profile of CMP-001 when given in combination with pembrolizumab or as monotherapy in the Treatment Extension.

Participants enrolled into either Part 1 or Part 2 will continue study treatment as long as they do not experience unacceptable toxicities and when continued treatment, is in the participant's best interest according to the Investigator. Participants may continue therapy beyond progression based upon Investigator judgement of potential benefit.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Part 1: Dose-Escalation - CMP-001 and PembrolizumabExperimentalParticipants will receive up to 5 escalating dose levels (1 milligram [mg], 3 mg, 5 mg, 7.5 mg and 10 mg) of CMP-001 via intratumoral injection according to one of 2 schedules (Schedule A: once weekly for 7 weeks, followed by every 3 weeks thereafter until participant is discontinued; Schedule B: once weekly for 2 weeks, followed by every 3 weeks thereafter until participant is discontinued) in combination with pembrolizumab at its labelled dose and schedule.
Receives: Drug: CMP-001; Drug: Pembrolizumab
Part 1: Dose-Expansion - CMP-001 and PembrolizumabExperimentalParticipants will receive CMP-001 10 mg via intratumoral injection by Schedule A (once weekly for 7 weeks, followed by every 3 weeks thereafter until participant is discontinued) in combination with pembrolizumab at its labelled dose and schedule. As of 05 October 2018, the dose and schedule for Part 1 Dose Expansion Phase was selected based on all available safety, efficacy and pharmacodynamic data from the Part 1 Dose Escalation Phase.

Part 2: CMP-001 Monotherapy and Crossover to CombinationExperimentalParticipants will receive CMP-001 10 mg via intratumoral injection by Schedule A (once weekly for 7 weeks, followed by every 3 weeks thereafter until participant is discontinued). Participants who were enrolled prior to 05 October 2018 to receive CMP-001 doses <10 mg will have the option to receive CMP-001 doses up to 10 mg on Schedule A. Participants with documented progression while on CMP-001 monotherapy treatment will have the option to crossover to the combination treatment of CMP-001 10 mg plus pembrolizumab, at the discretion of the Investigator.
Receives: Drug: CMP-001; Drug: Pembrolizumab

What is being measured

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

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CMP-001 and Pembrolizumab in people with Melanoma, run by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals at 13 sites in United States.

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 16 inclusion and 16 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 4 Jul 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in United States. 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?

Part 1: Dose-Escalation Phase: RP2D of CMP-001 When Given in Combination With Pembrolizumab (time frame: 21 days (for Schedule A dosing) and 35 days (for Schedule B dosing)). 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 4 Jul 2025.
