What participants receive

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

  • JNJ-63723283Drug

    Also called Cetrelimab

    JNJ-63723283 will be administered by IV infusion or SC injection or infusion.

Study groups in NCT02908906
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
JNJ-63723283ExperimentalIn Part 1, the first cohort will receive JNJ-63723283 at a starting dose of 80 milligram (mg), intravenous (IV) every 2 weeks. JNJ-63723283 doses will be escalated following a modified Continual Reassessment Method (mCRM). Multiple doses, dose administration routes (subcutaneous [SC] or IV), and dose schedules may be explored. In Part 2, participants will receive JNJ-63723283 at the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) determined in Part 1. In Part 3, participants will receive JNJ-63723283 to evaluate pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD) and safety. In Part 4, participants will receive JNJ-63723283 at the dose level determined in Part 3. Additional cohorts may be enrolled in Part 4.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing JNJ-63723283 in people with Neoplasms, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 20 sites in 7 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 5 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 20 sites in Spain, United Kingdom, Russia, United States, Poland and 2 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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: Frequency and Severity of Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) (time frame: Up to 2 years 6 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02908906, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 31 Aug 2026.
