About this study

Official title: Phase 1 Dose Escalation Study of the Agonist Redirected Checkpoint, SL-172154 (SIRPα-Fc-CD40L), Administered Intratumorally in Subjects With Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma or Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck

This is a Phase 1 open-label, multi-center, dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety, PK, anti-tumor activity, and pharmacodynamic effects of SL-172154 administered by intratumoral injection in subjects with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) or squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN).

Read the detailed description

This Phase 1 trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, anti-tumor activity and pharmacodynamic effects of SL-172154 when administered as an intratumoral injection (ITI) and identify the dose and schedule i.e., recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for future development. Eligible subjects must have unresectable or recurrent, locally advanced or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the skin or head and neck, that is not amenable to curative surgery or radiotherapy. The study design consists of four sequential dose-escalation cohorts and an optional pharmacodynamic cohort to obtain additional pharmacodynamic data at one or more dose levels that have completed evaluation for safety without exceeding the maximum tolerated dose (MTD).

What is being measured

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

    Number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events

    Measured: From Day 1 to 90 days after last injection of SL-172154, an average of 6 weeks. SL-172154 administration continued until disease progression or withdrawal of consent; there was no maximum treatment duration.

  2. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of SL-172154 When Administered Intratumorally

    Number of participants with dose limiting toxicities (DLTs)

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 29.

    The Tmax is the time at which the maximum concentration of SL-172154 is observed following single and multiple doses

    Measured: Approximately 18-24 months

  6. Minimum Observed Concentration (Cmin) of SL-172154 When Administered by Intratumoral Injection (ITI)

    The Cmin is the minimum observed serum concentration of SL-172154 following single and multiple doses

    Measured: Approximately 18-24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Drug: SL-172154 in people with Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck, run by Shattuck Labs, Inc. at 6 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 14 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 24 Feb 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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 All Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (time frame: From Day 1 to 90 days after last injection of SL-172154, an average of 6 weeks. SL-172154 administration continued until disease progression or withdrawal of consent; there was no maximum treatment duration.). The study lists 2 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 24 Feb 2025.
