About this study

Official title: Phase 1/2 Study of BDC-1001 as a Single Agent and in Combination With Nivolumab in Patients With Advanced HER2-Expressing Solid Tumors

A first-in-human study using BDC-1001 as a single agent and in combination with nivolumab in HER2 expressing advanced malignancies

Read the detailed description

This study has four parts. Part 1 is a dose escalation of BDC-1001 as a single agent to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), or maximum protocol dose (MPD) recommended for Part 3. In Part 3, the selected dose will be administered as monotherapy to patients with selected advanced malignancies. Part 2 is a dose escalation of BDC-1001 in combination with nivolumab to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D), or maximum protocol dose (MPD) recommended for Part 4. In Part 4, the selected dose will be administered in combination with nivolumab to patients with selected advanced malignancies.

Bolt amended the protocol to transition any subjects still receiving BDC-1001 to continue receiving BDC-1001 in the Maintenance Phase. Subjects remaining on BDC-1001 will continue to receive BDC-1001 until a criterion for discontinuation has been met.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing BDC-1001 and Nivolumab in people with HER2-positive Solid Tumors and HER2-positive Breast Cancer, run by Bolt Biotherapeutics, Inc. at 21 sites in 4 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 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 21 sites in United States, Spain, France, South Korea. 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 5 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 15 Sep 2025.
