About this study

Official title: An Open Label Phase Ib Dose Finding Study of BI 836880 in Combination With Ezabenlimab to Characterize Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics and Efficacy in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and in Other Solid Tumors

This study has 2 parts. The first part was open to adults with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. The second part was open also to adults with other types of advanced cancer of the lung, brain, skin, and liver. After early encouraging results, more people with liver cancer can now take part in the study. The participants get a combination of two medicines called BI 836880 and ezabenlimab.

BI 836880 is a type of an antibody that blocks new blood vessel formation. New blood vessels are needed by the tumour to continue growing. Ezabenlimab is an antibody that may help the immune system fight cancer (immune checkpoint inhibitor).

The purpose of the first part of the study was to find out the highest dose of the BI 836880 that the participants can tolerate in combination with BI 754091. After the best dose of BI 836880 for the combination with ezabenlimab was found, it is used in the second part of the study. The purpose of the second part is to see whether the combination of BI 836880 and BI 754091 is able to make tumours shrink.

The participants are in the study as long as they benefit from and can tolerate treatment. During this time, they get infusions of BI 836880 and ezabenlimab every 3 weeks. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.

Individual data sharing
No: Clinical studies sponsored by Boehringer Ingelheim, phases I to IV, interventional and non-interventional, are in scope for sharing of the raw clinical study data and clinical study documents, except for the following exclusions: 1. studies in products where Boehringer Ingelheim is not the license holder; 2. studies regarding pharmaceutical formulations and associated analytical methods, and studies pertinent to pharmacokinetics using human biomaterials; 3. studies conducted in a single center or targeting rare diseases (because of limitations with anonymization).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing BI 836880 and Ezabenlimab in people with Non-squamous, Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer and Neoplasms, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 43 sites in 12 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 24 inclusion and 52 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 10 Nov 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 43 sites in United States, France, Germany, Poland, Australia and 7 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Nov 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 - Number of Patients With Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) Within the First Cycle of Treatment (time frame: The first treatment cycle, up to 21 days.). 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 10 Nov 2025.
