About this study
Official title: A Phase 1, Open-Label, Multicenter Trial Investigating the Safety, Tolerability, and Preliminary Antineoplastic Activity of Sym024 (Anti-CD73) as Monotherapy and in Combination With Sym021 (Anti-PD-1) in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumor Malignancies
The primary purpose of this study is to see if Sym024 is safe and tolerable as monotherapy and in combination with Sym021 in patients with solid tumor malignancies.
Read the detailed description
Part 1 of this study will assess the safety and tolerability to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) (or the maximum administered dose [MAD]) and/or the selected dose(s) of Sym024 in patients with solid tumor malignancies.
Part 2 of this study will assess the safety and tolerability to establish the MTD (or the MAD) and/or the selected dose(s) of Sym024 when administered in combination with Sym021 in patients with solid tumor malignancies.
Part 2a of this study will assess the safety and tolerability of Sym024 when first administered as a single agent during Cycle 1 (safety lead-in) followed by administration in combination with Sym021 during Cycle 2 and subsequent cycles.
Part 3 of this study will assess the safety of Sym024 when administered alone or in combination with Sym021 in expanded cohorts of patients with solid tumor malignancies.
April 2024: The above was the study design at trial start. Per protocol, implementation of a part 3 would require an amendment. However, this was never done as it was decided not to include a part 3.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Sym021 and Sym024 in people with Metastatic Cancer and Solid Tumor, run by Symphogen A/S at 4 sites in 2 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 18 inclusion and 25 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 4 sites in United States, Canada. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
Part I: To evaluate the incidence, severity and relationship of (S)AEs to establish the MTD/MAD of Sym024 monotherapy. (time frame: 28 days). The study lists 3 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 9 Dec 2024.
