About this study

Official title: AIPAC-002 (Active Immunotherapy PAClitaxel-002): A Multicentre, Phase Ib Study to Test a New Schedule of Eftilagimod Alpha (a Soluble LAG-3 Protein) as Adjunctive to Weekly Paclitaxel in Hormone Receptor-positive Metastatic Breast Carcinoma Patients

This is a multicentre, multinational Phase Ib study in female HR+ MBC patients not receiving Her2-targeted therapy. Treatment consists of a chemo-immunotherapy phase followed by a maintenance phase. The chemo-immunotherapy phase consists of 6 cycles of 4 weeks each. During each cycle the subject will receive 80 mg/m2 paclitaxel intravenously on Day 1, 8 and 15 and 30 mg efti subcutaneously on Day 1 and 15 in a 28-day (4-week) cycle. Efti will always be given after paclitaxel. The maintenance phase comprises 6 visits with 4 weekly intervals; during each such visit 30 mg efti is given subcutaneously as monotherapy. A total of 24 subjects will be enrolled into the study. The primary goal of the study is safety and tolerability profile of efti in combination with weekly paclitaxel both given the same day in contrast to subsequent days as in the AIPAC trial.

What participants receive

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

  • Eftilagimod AlphaDrug

    Also called IMP321; efti

Efti will always be given after paclitaxel. The maintenance phase comprises 6 visits with 4 weekly intervals; during each such visit 30 mg efti is given subcutaneosuly as monotherapy.

  • PaclitaxelDrug

    The chemo-immunotherapy phase consists of 6 cycles of 4 weeks each. During each cycle the subject will receive 80 mg/m2 paclitaxel intravenously on Day 1, 8 and 15.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Eftilagimod Alpha and Paclitaxel in people with Metastatic Breast Cancer, run by Immutep S.A.S..

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 4 inclusion and 7 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Safety and tolerability profile of efti in combination with weekly paclitaxel both given the same day (time frame: up to 12 month). 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 22 Mar 2023.
