What is being measured

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

  1. Dose limiting toxicities

    The frequency and percentage of DLT will be presented by dose level

    Measured: During the first cycle (every cycle is 21 days) of treatment

  2. Adverse events

    The frequency and percentage of AEs will be presented by dose level

    Measured: From date of screening visit until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 years

  3. Immunogenicity

    Presence anti-drug antibody (ADA) will be listed

    Measured: From date of screening visit until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall response rate

    complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) by RECIST criteria

    Measured: At every 2nd cycles until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 years (every cycle is 21 days)]

  2. Disease control rate

    complete response (CR), partial response (PR) or stable disease (SD) by RECIST criteria

    Measured: At every 2nd cycles until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 years (every cycle is 21 days)

  3. Progression free survival

    Period from the date of the drug administration to the disease progression time point

    Measured: From date of screening visit until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 years

  4. Overall survival

    Period from the date of the drug administration to the patient's death

    Measured: From date of screening visit until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing TTAC-0001 and pembrolizumab combination in people with Triple Negative Breast Cancer, run by PharmAbcine at 2 sites in Australia.

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 14 inclusion and 28 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Aug 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Australia. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Dose limiting toxicities (time frame: During the first cycle (every cycle is 21 days) of treatment). 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 17 Aug 2022.
