Read the detailed description

This was a Phase Ib, multi-center, open-label study, to characterize the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD) and antitumor activity of PDR001 in combination with canakinumab, CJM112, trametinib and EGF816 and single agent (s.a.) canakinumab in subjects with Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC), Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) and Colorectal Cancer (CRC).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing PDR001, ACZ885 and CJM112 in people with Colorectal Cancer, Triple Negative Breast Cancer, NSCLC - Adenocarcinoma, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 23 sites in 9 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 9 inclusion and 39 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 29 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 23 sites in United States, France, Spain, Belgium, Canada and 4 more countries. 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?

Frequency of treatment-emergent Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) as a measure of safety (time frame: Throughout the study at every visit, an average of 1 year). The study lists 7 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 29 Mar 2022.
