  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Confirmed diagnosis of:
  • For the monotherapy cohorts: Inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, NSCLC, CRC, ovarian cancer, or acral melanoma that is refractory to standard therapy or for which no standard therapy exists. Participants who are considered intolerant of or ineligible for standard therapy(ies), as well as participants who have been offered but refused standard therapy(ies), may also be eligible.

The anti-PD-1/anti-PD-L1 therapy must be FDA approved for their cancer indication at the time of screening. Patients with the tumor types eligible for monotherapy that are TMB-H, MSI-H or dMMR and have had an unsatisfactory response to anti-PD-1/anti-PD-L1 therapy may enroll for the pembrolizumab combination, and additional indications that have been identified as ATRC-101 target positive and are FDA approved for pembrolizumab may be added following discussion with the study Medical Monitor.
  • Individuals with BRAF mutant melanoma must have received BRAF inhibitors alone or in combination with a MEK inhibitor, if indicated.
  • Individuals with NSCLC should have received platinum-based therapy unless contraindicated
  • For the PLD combination therapy cohort: Inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic high-grade serous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that is platinum resistant, defined as progression during or within 6 months of the last dose of platinum-based chemotherapy OR breast cancer that is refractory to other standard therapies.

Replication-incompetent viral, mRNA, subunit, conjugate, and toxoid vaccines are allowed.
  • COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic consideration: The COVID-19 vaccination should not be delayed; however, caution should be exercised when combining vaccination with cancer therapy, particularly immunotherapy. The COVID-19 vaccines can cause transient lymphadenopathy and potentially impact assessment of disease burden during screening and/or on-study. To allow correct interpretation and reduce equivocal findings, investigators should discuss with the participant appropriate timing and selection of anatomic site of vaccination (alternative) with respect to imaging scans (MRI or CT). Screening scans should be acquired before the first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine or 4-6 weeks after the second dose of the vaccine. Because cancer patients are considered vulnerable population, after COVID-19 vaccination there is also a potential for heightened immune related adverse events including CRS. Investigators should use judgement when evaluating and managing potentially overlapping adverse events and in establishing causality with the study treatment (Schönrich and Raftery 2019; Desai et al. 2021; Edmonds et al. 2021; Indini et al. 2021)

  • Ongoing immune-related toxicity or immune-related toxicity requiring systemic corticosteroids for 30 or more consecutive days for a prior immune related adverse event before initiation of study treatment
  • For the PLD combination therapy cohort ONLY:

About this study

Official title: A Phase 1b Dose Escalation and Expansion Trial to Investigate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Biological Activity of ATRC-101 as Monotherapy and in Combination With Other Anticancer Agents in Adults With Advanced Solid Malignancies

ATRC-101-A01 is a Phase 1b, open-label dose escalation and expansion trial of ATRC-101, an engineered fully human immunoglobulin G, subclass 1 (IgG1) antibody derived from a naturally occurring human antibody. The safety, tolerability, PK, and biological activity of ATRC-101 will be characterized when administered every two weeks (Q2W) or every 3 weeks (Q3W) as a monotherapy or in combination with other anticancer agents.

Read the detailed description

For the monotherapy cohorts, including the efficacy expansion cohorts, enrollment is restricted to adults with inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer, NSCLC, CRC, ovarian cancer, and acral melanoma, which are all tumor types that have demonstrated ATRC-101 immunoreactivity on at least 50% of tested commercially procured archival specimens.

For the pembrolizumab combination therapy cohort, enrollment is restricted to adults with inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC, CRC (only MSI-H or dMMR), melanoma (with the exception of uveal melanoma), HCC, HNSCC, ESCC, UC or TNBC, that have been treated with anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 therapy and have progressed radiographically or have achieved stable disease for a minimum of two months and who, in the judgment of their treating physicians, could benefit from a combination of ATRC 101 and pembrolizumab.

For the PLD combination therapy cohort, enrollment is restricted to adult females with inoperable, locally advanced or metastatic high-grade serous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that is platinum resistant, defined as progression during or within 6 months of the last dose of platinum-based chemotherapy OR breast cancer that is refractory to other standard therapies.

For target-enriched expansion cohorts, enrollment will be limited to participants with pretreatment tumor biopsies demonstrating ATRC-101 target expression above a predefined threshold by IHC at a central laboratory.

What participants receive

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

  • ATRC-101Biological

    ATRC-101 is an engineered, fully-human IgG1 antibody derived from a naturally-occurring human antibody.

  • PembrolizumabBiological

    Pembrolizumab (Keytruda®) is a humanized immunoglobulin G4 monoclonal antibody with high specificity of binding to the programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) receptor, thus inhibiting its interaction with programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and programmed cell death ligand 2 (PD-L2).

  • Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD)Drug

    Also called DOXIL®, PLD

    Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) is doxorubicin hydrochloride (HCl), an anthracycline topoisomerase inhibitor that can bind DNA and inhibit nucleic acid synthesis. PLD is doxorubicin HCL encapsulated in liposomes formulated with surface-bound methoxypolyethylene glycol

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ATRC-101, Pembrolizumab and Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) in people with Breast Cancer and Colorectal Cancer, run by Atreca, Inc. at 19 sites in United States.

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 26 inclusion and 49 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 19 sites in United States. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Sponsor Decision). 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?

Incidence of DLTs (dose escalation cohorts only), treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs), and changes in safety parameters (time frame: 24 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 29 Dec 2023.
