About this study

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

This is the first study to test Sym022 in humans. The primary purpose of this study is to see if Sym022 is safe and tolerable 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

This study will evaluate the preliminary safety, tolerability, and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of Sym022, an anti-lymphocyte activation gene 3 (anti-LAG-3) monoclonal antibody (mAb). The goal is to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of sequential escalating doses of Sym022 when administered once every 2 weeks (Q2W) by intravenous (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. If an MTD is not identified, a maximum administered dose (MAD) will be determined. Sym022 will be given to patients in escalating dose cohorts; each patient will be given one fixed dose level.

What participants receive

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

  • 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.

What is being measured

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

  1. Assessment of Treatment Related Adverse Events (AEs).

    Assess the safety, tolerability and dose-limiting toxicities of Sym022 on a Q2W schedule to establish the MTD and/or RP2D.

    Measured: 19 months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Evaluation of the Immunogenicity of Sym022.

    Serum sampling and incidence (%) per dose level to assess the potential for anti-drug antibody (ADA) formation. Count of participants show the number of participants who were tested positive for anti-Sym022 ADA.

    Measured: 19 months

  2. Evaluation of Objective Response (OR) or Stable Disease (SD).

    Assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1), Response Evaluation Criteria in Lymphomas 2017 (RECIL 2017), or Immunotherapeutics Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (iRECIST), depending on tumor type. The numbers shown below correspond to the values related to RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: 13 months

  3. Time to Progression (TTP) of Disease.

    Based on time of enrollment to first evidence of progression on imaging studies, as assessed by RECIST v1.1, RECIL 2017, or iRECIST, depending on tumor type. The numbers shown below correspond to the values related to RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: 13 months

  4. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve in a Dosing Interval (AUC).

    Will be estimated using non-compartmental methods and actual timepoints.

    Measured: 19 months

  5. Maximum Concentration (Cmax)

    Will be derived from observed data.

    Measured: 0, 2, 4, 8, 24, 48, 168 hours and 336 hours as administered Q2W (every second week)

  6. Time to Reach Maximum Concentration (Tmax)

    Will be derived from observed data.

    Measured: 0, 2, 4, 8, 24, 48, 168 hours and 336 hours as administered Q2W (every second week)

  7. Trough Concentration (Ctrough)

    Will be derived from observed data.

    Measured: 0, 2, 4, 8, 24, 48, 168 hours and 336 hours as administered Q2W (every second week)

  8. Terminal Elimination Half-life (T½)

    Will be estimated using non-compartmental methods and actual timepoints.

    Measured: 0, 2, 4, 8, 24, 48, 168 hours and 336 hours as administered Q2W (every second week)

  9. Clearance (CL)

    Will be estimated using non-compartmental methods and actual timepoints.

    Measured: 0, 2, 4, 8, 24, 48, 168 hours and 336 hours as administered Q2W (every second week)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Sym022 in people with Metastatic Cancer and Solid Tumor, run by Symphogen A/S at 3 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 21 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 18 Feb 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Feb 2021). 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?

Assessment of Treatment Related Adverse Events (AEs). (time frame: 19 months). 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 18 Feb 2021.
