About this study

Official title: A Phase 1/2a, Open-Label, Multicenter, Single Arm, Dose Escalation/Dose Expansion Study of YBL-006 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

This is a Phase 1/2a, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation/dose-expansion study of YBL-006, in participants with Advanced Solid Tumors. This multicenter study will be conducted in approximately 11-14 participants in the dose escalation phase, and approximately 39-76 participants in dose expansion phase.

Read the detailed description

Study will consist of three periods:

  1. Screening (up to 28 days)
  2. Treatment (28-day, 14-day, or 21-day cycles)
  3. Follow-up (up to 3 months) The treatment period will consist of 28-day cycles for the dose escalation phase, and 14-day (Cohorts B1, B2 reserve, and B3) or 21-day (Cohort B2) cycles for the dose expansion phase. Each cycle is comprised of two doses of IP administered as an IV infusion on Days 1 and 15 (dose escalation phase) or one dose of IP administered as an IV infusion on Day 1 (dose expansion phase). The treatment duration will be of 1 year in patients who are responding to the treatment.

Dose Escalation:

An accelerated titration design will be utilized for the lowest dose cohort (0.5 mg/kg) in the dose escalation part. Whereas the traditional 3 + 3 design will be utilized for the higher dose cohorts until the proposed starting dose for the Expansion Cohort is determined

Expansion Cohorts:

Up to four tumor-specific expansion cohorts consisting of approximately 39 to 76 participants will evaluate the safety, efficacy, PK, and PD of YBL-006 at the proposed doses of YBL-006"

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing YBL-006 in people with Advanced Solid Tumors, run by Y Biologics Inc. at 7 sites in 3 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 30 inclusion and 19 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 5 Dec 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in South Korea, Australia, Thailand. 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?

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?

Safety and tolerability measure through Adverse Events/Serious Adverse Events (time frame: Measurements at Baseline till Follow up from 90 days of last dose). The study lists 6 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 5 Dec 2022.
