About this study

Official title: An Open-Label, Multi-center Phase I/II Dose Escalation and Expansion Study to Assess the Safety, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetics of MRG002 in Patients with HER2-Positive Advanced Solid Tumors and Locally Advanced or Metastatic Gastric/Gastroesophageal Junction (GEJ) Cancer

The objective of this study is to assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of MRG002, as well as the immunogenicity as defined by the incidence of anti-drug antibody (ADA) of MRG002 in patients with HER2-positive advanced solid tumors and locally advanced or metastatic gastric/gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer.

Read the detailed description

This study consists of two parts. In Part A, patients will receive MRG002 as a monotherapy at doses of 2.2 or 2.6 mg/kg intravenously (IV) over 60-90 minute on Day 1 of every 3 weeks (Q3W), to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose (RP2D). In part B, patients will receive a single IV infusion of MRG002 at RP2D on Day 1 of Q3W.

Locally Advanced or Metastatic Gastric/GEJ CancerExperimentalMRG002 will be administrated by an IV infusion on Day 1 of every 3 weeks (21-day cycle).
Receives: Drug: MRG002

What is being measured

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

  1. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)

    The dose level in which (i) less than 2 out of 6 patients in a treatment cohort experiences dose-limiting toxicity (DLT); or (ii) <33% of an evaluable patient treatment cohort experiences DLT.

    Measured: DLT will be evaluated during the first 21-day treatment cycle (Cycle 1)

  2. Recommended Phase II Dose (RP2D)

    Identify the recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) of MRG002 for Phase II clinical study. The RP2D may be the same as the MTD or an evaluable dose level lower than the MTD.

    Measured: Day 1 to Day 21 of Cycle 1

  3. Objective Response Rate (ORR)

    Objective response rate (ORR) will be assessed by Independent Central Review (ICR) based on RECIST v1.1. Cumulative safety and dosing data will be reviewed by an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB).

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

  4. Incidence of Adverse Events (AEs)

    AEs will be coded using MedDAR. Descriptive statistics will be used to summarize results to assess the safety and tolerability profile of MRG002.

    Measured: After signing informed consent until 45 days after the last dose of MRG002

Secondary outcomes (10)

  1. Duration of Response (DoR)

    Sensitivity analyses of DoR from the Investigator's assessment will be performed in the final analysis.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

  2. Disease Control Rate (DCR)

    Sensitivity analyses of DCR from the Investigator's assessment will be performed in the final analysis.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

  3. Progression Free Survival (PFS)

    Sensitivity analyses of PFS from the Investigator's assessment will be performed in the final analysis.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

  4. Pharmacokinetics (PK) parameter for MRG002: Maximum Drug Concentration (Cmax)

    Cmax will be derived from the PK blood samples collected and will be summarized with descriptive statistics.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

  5. PK parameter for MRG002: Area Under the Curve Up to the Last Validated Measurable Plasma Concentration (AUClast)

    AUClast will be derived from the PK blood samples collected and will be summarized with descriptive statistics.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

  6. PK parameter for total antibody (TAb): Cmax

    Cmax will be derived from the PK blood samples collected and will be summarized with descriptive statistics.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

  7. PK parameter for TAb: AUClast

    AUClast will be derived from the PK blood samples collected and will be summarized with descriptive statistics.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

  8. PK parameter for Monomethyl Auristatin E (MMAE): Cmax

    Cmax will be derived from the PK blood samples collected and will be summarized with descriptive statistics.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

  9. PK parameter for MMAE: AUClast

    AUClast will be derived from the PK blood samples collected and will be summarized with descriptive statistics.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

  10. Immunogenicity

    5 mL Blood samples for anti-drug antibody (ADA) analysis will be collected each time according to the pre-defined timepoints. The incidence of ADA will be summarized for all patients who received at least one administration of MRG002.

    Measured: Baseline to study completion (24 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing MRG002 in people with Advanced Solid Tumors and Advanced or Metastatic Gastric Cancer, run by Shanghai Miracogen Inc. at 2 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 8 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 2024. 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 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) (time frame: DLT will be evaluated during the first 21-day treatment cycle (Cycle 1)). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04492488.

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 Oct 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
