About this study

Official title: A Phase 1, Open-Label, Multicenter Trial Investigating the Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Antineoplastic Activity of Sym021 (Anti-PD-1) as Monotherapy, in Combination With Either Sym022 (Anti-LAG-3) or Sym023 (Anti-TIM-3), and in Combination With Both Sym022 and Sym023 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumor Malignancies or Lymphomas

The primary purpose of this study is to see if Sym021 is safe and tolerable as monotherapy, in combination with either Sym022 or Sym023, and in Combination with both Sym022 and Sym023 for patients with locally advanced/unresectable or metastatic solid tumor malignancies or lymphomas that are refractory to available therapy or for which no standard therapy is available.

Read the detailed description

Part 1 of this study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the selected dose of sequential escalating doses of Sym021 when administered once every 2 weeks (Q2W) by IV infusion to patient cohorts with locally advanced/unresectable or metastatic solid tumor malignancies or lymphomas that are refractory to available therapy or for which no standard therapy is available

Part 2 of the study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and DLTs to establish the MTD and/or the selected dose of sequential escalating doses of Sym022 when administered Q2W in combination with a fixed dose of 3 mg/kg of Sym021, each by IV infusion to patient cohorts with locally advanced/unresectable or metastatic solid tumor malignancies or lymphomas that are refractory to available therapy or for which no standard therapy is available

Part 3 of the study will evaluate of the safety, tolerability, and DLTs to establish the MTD and/or the selected dose of sequential escalating doses of Sym023 when administered Q2W in combination with fixed doses of 3 mg/kg of Sym021 and either 1, 3 or 5 mg/kg of Sym022, each by IV infusion to patient cohorts with locally advanced/unresectable or metastatic solid tumor malignancies or lymphomas that are refractory to available therapy or for which no standard therapy is available.

What participants receive

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

  • Sym021Drug

    Also called Anti-PD-1

    Sym021 is a humanized antibody that binds PD-1 with sub-nanomolar affinity and blocks binding of the inhibitory ligands PD-L1 and PD-L2, thus releasing PD-1-mediated inhibition of the immune response.

  • Sym022Drug

    Also called Anti-LAG-3

    Sym022 is a recombinant, fully human antibody that binds LAG-3 and blocks the LAG-3/major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC-II) interaction, thus allowing for increased T-cell proliferation and cytokine production.

  • Sym023Drug

    Also called Anti-TIM-3

    Sym023 is a recombinant, fully human antibody that binds TIM-3 and induces activation of immune cells.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Sym021, Sym022 and Sym023 in people with Metastatic Cancer and Solid Tumor, run by Symphogen A/S at 4 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 7 inclusion and 29 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 30 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States, Canada. 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: Assessment of treatment emergent adverse events (AEs) meeting DLT criteria. (time frame: 12 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?
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 30 May 2023.
