About this study

Official title: A Phase I, Multi-center, Open-label, Dose-escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Pharmacokinetics of CAL056 Mesylate in Patients With Solid Tumors Resistant or Refractory to Standard Treatments

This is a multi-center, open-label, dose-escalation, phase I study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), preliminary efficacy, and pharmacodynamics of CAL056 mesylate in cancer patients with resistant or refractory solid tumors.

Read the detailed description

Patients with resistant or refractory malignant solid tumors and no standard treatment available will be screened for the eligibility. Patients will be screened within 28 days prior to the first dose of CAL056 mesylate. Eligible patients will receive CAL056 mesylate daily with the assigned dose level for 28 days (Day 1 to Day 28) for each treatment cycle. Patients will be administered with CAL056 mesylate at clinical site at scheduled visits (i.e. Day 1/Visit 1, Day 8/Visit 2, Day 15/ Visit 3, Day 22/Visit 4, Day 28/Visit 5). Remaining doses of CAL056 mesylate on all other days will be self-administered by patients at home. After the administration of CAL056 mesylate on Day 1 and Day 28, patients can stay at the clinical site for 24 hours to have safety monitoring and blood samples collected for PK analysis.

Only patients completing Cycle 1 without a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) or disease progression will be allowed to continue the subsequent cycles at the same dose level. The maximum number of dosing cycle is 6 cycles in each patient in this study. Continuation of using CAL056 mesylate may be permitted after the evaluation of the risk/benefit in individual patient by the Investigators and with the approval of Calgent.

During the Cycle 1 of study period, a total of 5 visits are scheduled to evaluate the safety, PK, preliminary efficacy, and pharmacodynamics of CAL056 mesylate. Each visit is planned on Day 1 of each subsequent cycle if patients continue the treatment of CAL056 mesylate. After the end treatment of CAL056 mesylate, an end of treatment (EOT) visit and a safety follow-up visit will be scheduled.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs)

    To evaluate the safety and tolerability of CAL056 mesylate in cancer patients.

    Measured: From screening visit until safety follow-up visit (at 28 days after the EOT) or before starting new anticancer treatment, whichever comes first (up to 1-year)

  2. Number of patients with AEs qualified as dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs)

    Dose-limiting toxicities are evaluated using National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.

    Measured: Cycle 1 (28 days)

  3. Determination of tolerability and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of CAL056 mesylate by DLTs using NCI CTCAE version 5.0

    MTD will be the highest dose associated with occurrence of DLTs ≤ 33% (e.g. 2/6 evaluable patients experience a DLT during the first treatment Cycle).

    Measured: Cycle 1 (28 days)

  4. Evaluation of the PK profile of CAL056 mesylate: Maximum observed concentration (Cmax)

    Pharmacokinetics profile will be evaluated following a comprehensive PK parameter, such as Cmax.

    Measured: At Day 1 and Day 28 of Cycle 1, at Day 1 of subsequent cycles until Cycle 6 (except for Cycle 2) (each cycle is 28 days in length)

  5. Evaluation of the PK profile of CAL056 mesylate: Time to reach Cmax (Tmax)

    Pharmacokinetics profile will be evaluated following comprehensive PK parameter, such as Tmax.

    Measured: At Day 1 and Day 28 of Cycle 1, at Day 1 of subsequent cycles until Cycle 6 (except for Cycle 2) (each cycle is 28 days in length)

  6. Evaluation of the PK profile of CAL056 mesylate: Apparent terminal elimination half-life (t½)

    Pharmacokinetics profile will be evaluated following comprehensive PK parameter, such as t½.

    Measured: At Day 1 and Day 28 of Cycle 1, at Day 1 of subsequent cycles until Cycle 6 (except for Cycle 2) (each cycle is 28 days in length)

  7. Evaluation of the PK profile of CAL056 mesylate: Area under the concentration-time curve (AUC)

    Pharmacokinetics profile will be evaluated following a comprehensive PK parameter, AUC.

    Measured: At Day 1 and Day 28 of Cycle 1, at Day 1 of subsequent cycles until Cycle 6 (except for Cycle 2) (each cycle is 28 days in length)

  8. Preliminary determination of the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) of CAL056 mesylate

    The RP2D will be preliminarily determined by the PK profile, type and severity of drug related toxicity, clinical suitability for long-term administration.

    Measured: Cycle 1 (28 days)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Evaluation of the preliminary efficacy of CAL056 mesylate in tumor response as assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1

    Tumor response will be assessed by RECIST version 1.1.

    Measured: At the screening visit and within 7 days prior to Day 1 of odd cycles (i.e., Cycle 3 and Cycle 5) (each cycle is 28 days in length) and at EOT/Early Termination (ET) (up to 21 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CAL056 mesylate in people with Resistant or Refractory Solid Tumors, run by Calgent Biotechnology Co., Ltd at 3 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 10 inclusion and 17 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 25 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States, Taiwan. 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?

Number of patients with adverse events (AEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) (time frame: From screening visit until safety follow-up visit (at 28 days after the EOT) or before starting new anticancer treatment, whichever comes first (up to 1-year)). The study lists 8 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 25 Apr 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
